thinking about how your words mean something to jon snow
even if theyâre said in teasing, accompanied with a laugh or a smile, heâs always attentive to what you say. he knows what itâs like to have people not listen to you â for people to disregard your words or not take them as seriously as they should.
so he always listens. always pays attention. to jon, every word of yours carries weight. every single one.
a remark of âyuck,â when feeding the messenger ravens at castle black breakfast and they do something truly disgusting with their beaks, though you huff a small laugh afterward, jonâs already catalogued it. he wakes up earlier to feed them so you donât have to, but has you feed them midday so you donât get suspicious when theyâre not so greedy and quick to choke.
even when heâs in a mood, or (rarely) ale-sung, heâs attentive. a muttered âstop, jon,â to his teasing â though said with a smile & only to deflect from your flushed features â and stop, he does. he presses a kiss to your hair in an apology, even though you donât need one.
a sarcastic âmove,â when in close proximity â heâs already taking a step back (he wasnât even in the way); a muttered âhuh?â when someoneâs explaining something (and of course he notices, no matter how quiet you were) â he leans down to whisper a further explanation in your ear. âgods, its cold,â while outside doing your chores, and he quietly goes to light your hearth so itâs warm in your chambers when you return (mutter a wish to see his lungs and heâll part his ribs)
summary: after a particularly long shift, you space out and let your intrusive thoughts win.

You shouldâve just gone home, but here you were, the last person from the day shift still catching up on your charting.
You were seated at one of the make-shift desks, staring at the computer when both Robby and Jack approached you.Â
âYouâre still here,â Robby said.Â
âYes,â you muttered.Â
âEveryoneâs gone home.âÂ
âNot everyone. Youâre still here,â you finally looked up at them both. Jack caught your eye immediately, gaze lingering just for a second longer before you turned your attention to Robby.Â
âYouâre picking up my bad habits.âÂ
âGuess you should lead by example then,â you said with a sigh.Â
Robby chuckled.Â
Jack looked at you, amused, with his lips curled into a small smile.Â
âIâm almost finished,â you continued. âJust want to make sure itâs accurate and detailed, thatâs all.âÂ
âThatâs never an issue,â Robby pointed out.Â
âGood to know.âÂ
Jack crossed his arms over his chest and your eyes flickered over to him, immediately glancing down at his arms. âYour notes are always very detailed. Makes it easy for continuity of care,â he finally chimed in.Â
âIâm on my last two patients,â you sighed. âIâll try to get it done in the next hour.âÂ
Robby sighed and glanced over at Jack. âRight then. Iâll see you in a couple of days.âÂ
âNight, Dr. Robby,â you called out, turning your attention back to the computer screen. The other man turned on his heel, leaving you alone with Jack.Â
You could still feel his presence, so you sat back in the chair and looked over at him. âYes, Dr. Abbot?âÂ
âNothing,â he answered.Â
âYouâre staring.âÂ
âIâm⌠observing.âÂ
âAnd Iâm trying to get this done,â you ran a hand over your face. âTrust me, Iâd rather be home right now.âÂ
âThereâs gotta be another way to be more efficient,â he pointed out.Â
You scoffed. âEfficiency is not my issue.âÂ
âSure seems like it.âÂ
You shook your head. âIâm fine.âÂ
âYouâre exhausted.âÂ
âArenât we all?â
He chuckled. âSuppose we are, but Iâd rather not have a straggler from the day shift bleed into my nights.âÂ
âWhyâs that?âÂ
âIt becomes my responsibility.âÂ
âIâm just charting,â you said.Â
âAnd itâs the second time this week that youâre staying later than everyone else,â he pointed out.Â
âIâm fine.âÂ
âYouâre distracted.âÂ
âIâm not your patient, Dr. Abbot.âÂ
âNo,â he shook his head. âBecause my patients actually listen.âÂ
Your lips parted in surprise.Â
He leaned against the edge of the desk.Â
âFinish your charts, then head home.â He said, softer this time. âYou need rest.âÂ
You watched him walk away, sighing quietly to yourself as your eyes lingered. Your crush on the older man was the reason why this was the second time you had stayed later than everyone else and you werenât sure how it made you feel that he noticed it too.Â
Because he was right.Â
You were distracted.
And it was because of him.Â
âAt this point, you should just join the night crew,â Ellis said, resting her elbows on the counter as she looked down at you.Â
âI donât know if I can function,â you answered.Â
âWell, youâre here later than everyone else. Iâd say youâll be able to adapt.âÂ
âIâd be distracted.âÂ
âArenât you already?â She grinned.Â
You looked up at her and narrowed your eyes. âTrinity told you.âÂ
âNo,â she said. âI just have eyes and you⌠well, you donât try to hide it.âÂ
You gasped. âDo you think he notices it too?â
âHeâs an observant man,â Ellis answered. âIâd be surprised if he doesnât.âÂ
âGreat,â you sighed, finishing the last chart of your patient and standing from your seat. âAnd with that, Iâm going home.âÂ
âYou know,â she said. âHe likes you too.âÂ
You furrowed a brow. âDoubt that.âÂ
Ellis chuckled. âIn denial⌠both of you.âÂ
âHeâs an attending,â you muttered.Â
âDoesnât stop you from staring at him like you want to jump him though, does it?âÂ
You rolled your eyes and stood from the computer. You hadnât seen Jack since he told you to go home, but there was a small part of you that hoped you would get to see him before you left.Â
âI donât stare at him likeââ
âStare at who?â Jack appeared behind you. It seemed like he appeared out of thin air.Â
Your eyes widened. You still hadnât turned around. Ellis was smirking, glancing over your shoulder at Jack.Â
âOh, gotta go!â She said.Â
âEllisââÂ
âDuty calls!â She interrupted. When Jack moved his gaze towards you, Ellis gave you a quick wink and turned on her heel, leaving you with Jack.Â
âStare at who?â Jack repeated. He felt closer now. His voice hovered near your ear.Â
Slowly, you turned around to face him. âNo one.âÂ
His eyes narrowed. âUh huh.âÂ
You were tired. Exhausted, really, and standing in front of him like this, so close that you could see the different shade of color in his eyes, the freckles along his face, the stubble on his chin, wasnât helping.Â
âI finished charting,â you said, changing the subject.Â
Then, he crossed his arms over his chest. Your eyes flickered to his arms, trailing his forearms up to his biceps that seem to bulge out from beneath the fabric of his shirt.Â
He cleared his throat.Â
âIâm sorry, what did you say?â You asked, staring up at him now.Â
âI didnât say anything.âÂ
âRight.âÂ
Jack tilted his head. When you glanced back down at his arms, he let a faint smile line his lips. It gave him the chance to look you over once too.Â
âSo, will I be seeing you again tomorrow night?âÂ
âWhat?â You asked.Â
âWhen I come in for my shift, will I be seeing you again?âÂ
âNo,â you answered too quickly. âI donât know.âÂ
He let out a quiet chuckle. Took another step closer. âHm.âÂ
âWhat? What hm?âÂ
âNothing.âÂ
âThat wasnât nothing.âÂ
âYou ever think about moving to nights?â Jack asked. He was closer now.Â
âNo,â you said. âI donât think Iâd survive.âÂ
âI think youâd fit right in.âÂ
Your lips parted in surprise. Was Jack flirting with you? âNights arenât for me.â
âWell,â he shrugged. âI know that nights would be more fun with you around.âÂ
You felt your cheeks flush. Maybe you were tired and just hallucinating that the man you had a crush on was standing so close to you and saying things that you were sure youâd think about over and over again later.Â
âYou think so? You wouldnât tease me about my charting?â
Jack grinned. âOh, no, thatâs a given.âÂ
âIâm just⌠detailed.â
âSure.âÂ
âI am.âÂ
âUh huh,â he said, eyes glinting with amusement.Â
Your eyes moved from his down to his lips, lingering for a moment before you moved your gaze to his arms. You were exhausted. You werenât thinking straight. The fact that he was standing there flirting with you caused your brain to short circuit⌠or at least it felt like it.Â
Because you wanted to reach out and touch his arms. Squeeze those biceps that always seemed to press against the fabric of his shirt whenever he crossed his arms over his chest. Youâd want to trace the veins along his strong forearms, wondering what else would beâ
âUmâŚâ he mumbled, looking down at you.Â
Your eyes widened.Â
Your hands were already on his biceps.Â
âOh my god,â you said, pulling your hands from him quickly. âShit. IâIâm so fucking sorry, Dr. Abbot.âÂ
You needed to slip back into some sense of professionalism. He was an attending. You didnât work directly under him, but he was still a superior at the Pitt. Your mind had drifted to the point that your intrusive thoughts about touching him won.
Jack gently wrapped a hand around your arm and pulled you into one the empty rooms. The door shut behind him, giving you both the much needed space away from prying eyes.Â
âThat wasâŚâ
âUncalled for,â you finished for him. âIâm sorry. Iâm justâIâm tired.âÂ
âYou touch Robby like that when youâre tired?âÂ
âNo⌠Robby doesnât have your arms,â you blurted out. âGod, I need to go home.âÂ
Jack smirked. âOh, so itâs just me?âÂ
âCan we just forget about it?â
âItâs going to be very difficult for me,â he teased. âYou were practically⌠feeling me up.â
âI was not!â You shook your head.Â
Jack crossed his arms over his chest again.Â
Your eyes flickered to his arms. Almost like you had been conditioned to watch his muscles flex at the motion.Â
âYou want to do it again, donât you?â Jack smirked.Â
âNo,â you answered, looking back up at him. âYouâre teasing me.âÂ
âSo what if I am?âÂ
âYouâre enjoying this too much,â you muttered.Â
âAnd what if⌠what if I said I liked having your hands on me?â Jack admitted. âThen, what?âÂ
âIâd say youâre lying.â
He cleared his throat. Dropped his hands back to his sides.Â
You bit your lower lip as you kept your eyes on him.Â
He took a step closer to you.Â
You opened your mouth to say something before the door opened abruptly. Shen looked between the two of you with a furrowed brow.Â
âJack, we got incoming. Multiple injuries from an MVA.âÂ
âGot it,â he said. Jack stepped back and away from you. âIâll be right there, Shen.âÂ
The other man nodded and gave you a knowing look before he shut the door once more.Â
âI should head home and get some rest,â you said.Â
Jack sighed. âCan I take you out for dinner?âÂ
âWhat?âÂ
âDinner. You and me.âÂ
You bit back a smile. âOkay.âÂ
âYeah?âÂ
You nodded. âYeah, Jack.âÂ
He let out a relieved breath and nodded. Then, his own intrusive thoughts won because Jack leaned forward to kiss your cheek. When he pulled away, you noticed the redness in his cheeks.Â
âHave a good night,â he said.Â
âGood night, Jack.â You reached out and touched his arm, biting your lower lip as you squeezed his arm before he smiled down at you.Â
Then, he turned around and left the room.Â
You couldnât help the large smile that lined your lips.Â
Jack liked you too.Â
And he asked you out on a date.Â
All because you made the first move. Unintentionally.Â
Bkg who never drinks but gets drunk one night n all the guys are talking about sex and giving advice and denki asks bkg for his opinion and they all start dogging on him thinking he doesnât know shitâŚ
bakugou is only drinking because youâre on holiday right now with your girls. without you around, his whole routine has gone out of whack. no visiting you after work or picking you up from your writing class. no lounging on your sofa as he cooks you fancy pasta in your tiny kitchen with your roommate next door. he saves some for her also.
bakugou feels like a train run off the tracks, a zombie in his body, all the colours in his world have fallen flat.
so heâs taken to one of the most popular vices, alcohol with his buddies. his buddies arenât helping. kaminari doesnât know how to please this new girl heâs seeing and kirishima thinks heâs suitable to give advice. the third beer bakugou has downed makes them less annoying. just a smidge.
bakugou leans his head on the back of kirishimaâs sofa, staring blankly at the ceiling. his beer fisted on his knee. youâre probably leaving the beach now, in that pretty striped bikini you snapped a photo of a few hours ago. you said you were going to sunbathe, eat snacks, listen to music and read your book. group solo time you said. he wishes he was with you now.
âand i know sheâs going to leave me for it,â kaminari whines into his palms, âb-but i tell her that i can keep going but she says no sheâs fine. i think she finds it awkward because i just came and she hasnât.â
kirishima knocks his empty can on his coffee table. itâs surprising heâs even got one in his only basic necessities needed bachelor pad.
âyou donât finger her at the beginning? eat her out? girls love that.â
bakugou looks at his phone. no notifications from you. he huffs.
âwhy are you huffing and not helping me! iâm crying for help here!â kaminari moans, then burps right after. bakugou winces. âi do all the foreplay! she doesnât come during that either!â
bakugou entertains him. he swings his head on the sofa to look at one of his longest friends. âthe fuck are you doinâ if sheâs not cominâ when youâre eatinâ her?â
even though kaminari asked him, he and kirishima turn to look at bakugou with these slow drunken blinks.
âhah? what?â
âwhat do you know aboutâŚ.â kaminari starts.
kirishima leans forward to his best friend, truly interested in his answer, âsexually pleasing women?â
âwhat are you two idiots on? obviously i know.â though bakugou flushes red at the topic.
sure heâs not the most experienced in womenkind but he is in one. he knows what you like.
âwait howâ,â kirishima starts but kaminari cuts in with desperation neither men have seen before.
âkacchan how!â he cries, hands clasped together and shaking in bakugouâs face. âhow do i make my lady orgasm?â
bakugouâs quick to push kaminari away, having him fly to the other side of the sofa but still, he looks to him for answers with eager eyes.
âget the hell off me!â bakugou says then remembers to check his phone. still no text from you. not even an update on the sunset on the beach? a selfie? damn. he shuts his device and looks to his friends. âthe problem is you idiots callinâ it foreplay. touchinâ her is sex.â
âkacchan!â he urges.
âfuck! i usually eat her out and when sheâs close, i add in my fingers. shit has her cominâ down my wrist on command.â bakugou blurts like the words were dragged out of his throat. then his blush deepens. he takes a swig of his beer.
kaminariâs mouth gapes open, âwhat the fuck? tell me HOW. in DETAIL!â
âwho?â kirishima asks, tilting his chair to look at bakugou properly. âwhy didnât you tell your brothers you had a girlfriend?â
ânone of your fuckinâ business.â
âi bet you told deku!â
âfuck off about dekuâŚ,â then bakugou sighs. no notifications, âi met her through round face. she told him.â
âguys weâre going off topic. tell me how kacchan.â kaminari asks, about to crawl into bakugouâs lap.
bakugou shrugs. large motions all huffy and dramatic.
âitâs f-fuckinâ instinctual,â bakugou rubs his eyes. alcohol and thinking about your pussy around his friends. this wasnât how he was expecting his evening to go. âi just suck and lick at her clit. iâm loud and messy with it⌠she likes that. stick my tongue in her, kiss her thighs. i dunno i just do everythinâ. then when sheâs about to come, she gets all grabby at my hair, pushinâ my head into her so i finger her. she explodes with these cute ass squeals.â
âshit, man,â from kirishima.
âdamn kacchan⌠feel like i needa be making notes.â kaminari inches towards bakugou and bakugou grunts, spreading his legs to get comfortable. âbut wait, before that, what happens? and whatâs the technique when you give head? aâand your fingersâ,â
itâs the alcohol that makes bakugou really consider his questions. thinking about you softens him, gets him warm and fuzzy inside.
âmy woman told me that foreplay starts in the morninâ. she likes when i kiss her awake and sweet talk her. cute texts during the day. cookinâ for her and havinâ a plan for the eveninâ even if itâs watchinâ a movie. means when we start makinâ out on the sofa sheâs climbinâ all over me, grindin and feelinâ for my dick.â
bakugou looks his friends up and down. âi donât do all that to get my dick wet though. i do it âcause i like seeinâ her happy.â then after frowning, âi do like eatinâ her pussy. i miss her.â
kirishima feels the urge to open hinge and messaging his matches. he wants whatever his best friend has.
âwhere is she?â
âon holiday with her friends.â
âwhy didnât you go?â
âi said with her fuckinâ friends. iâm not her friend. why would i be there?â he snaps.
kirishima shrugs. âcan we see a photo? whatâs she look like?â
bakugou can do that. he goes into his photo gallery. heâs got so many photos of you to choose from.
âdo you alternate between small licks and big licks? and your fingers, whatâs the motion?â
bakugou rolls his lips in pondering, âbig one at the start just to taste everythinâ. then small licks on her clit. whatever gets her moaninâ loud.â he lazily flicks through selfies of you, âi curl my fingers inside her. brush against her insides.â
âandâ,â
âthis her.â bakugou thrusts his phone in his friends faces.
itâs a selfie you took yesterday on a boat in your striped bikini. the sun beams down on you beautifully, making you glow while the sea is bright blue behind you. youâre smiling, squinting slightly from the sun.
âdonât look too goddamn hard!â he barks once two heads duck closer to his phone.
âwhatâs her name? sheâs gorgeous?â
âoh wow!â
bakugou doesnât have a chance to answer when his phone is overcome from a phone call, showing your first name and last name.
âfuck, fuck, fuck,â bakugou whips up from his seat, âshe hasnât called all day. iâm goinâ into your bedroom. donât wait up for me.â
bakugou storms into kaminariâs bedroom, answering the phone in haste, âbaby, finally. iâve been waitinâ for you to call⌠no, iâm not drunkâŚ. just a lil.â
once the bedroom door clicks shut, kirishima sighs, âiâm gonna get back on hinge⌠actually maybe ochako has some friends for me?â
âshit! i didnât ask what he cooks yn! or what does he mean by curl?â
stark man x wife who has a very loud mind. not necessarily bad thoughts. justâŚthoughts. lots of them. enough for your mind to still be running a hundred miles an hour whilst you're trying to sleep. and, well, stark men of course cannot leave their wife restless like that.
so you're lying there, half atop your husband, wide awake and staring at the wall praying to the old and new that the thoughts running through your mind will just quiet for a moment. but the keep coming. new thoughts popping into your head every damn second. it pulls a very frustrated groan from you that is definitely loud enough to wake the man beneath you.
and he just already knows what to do. because this happens almost every night.
maybe it starts with just a hand slipping between your thighs, fingers brushing teasingly. his eyes aren't even open and his other hand finds your waist to guide you underneath him as he rolls on top of you. lips moving down your jaw, and then your neck, kissing and nibbling downwards. doesn't even bother undressing you, just bunches the fabric of your chemise up to your hips.
i feel like it could go one of two ways (and i love both). either he goes down on you, all soft and slow and teasing. fingers and tongue working you over in such a way that is so soothing in a way. enough to make you all sleepy, thoughts quieting enough to let you drift off with this fingers still working you to the edge,
OR. he flips you over to your stomach, ass up, and to put it bluntly, fucks the thoughts out of you. rough and fast in that way he knows you love. until your hands are scrambling at the covers, your moans barely muffled in the pillow. until you're a complete drooling mess with not a single thought behind those eyes of yours.
and after?? when you're finally all sleepy?? he cleans you up and tucks you back against his side with a little kiss to the corner of you mouth. đ
Words of affirmation: Jon Snow is a man of few words. He doesnât know how to sweet talk but his words are always sincere. After all heâs northern, he will always speak the truth. When he compliments you, he doesnât say it because he wants to see you flustered, he says it because he truly believes in it, and to him heâs simply stating a fact.
Quality time: as the King of the north, Jon doesnât have much time to spare even if he wishes he could spend all of his time by his lover. Even so he will always find time for you, even if itâs something simple as talking about the day in each others arms before the sunsets.
Gift giving: Northerners donât have the most money to spend and so even if Jon wanted to he wouldnât be able to surprise you with something new very often. Even so Jon will never fail to gift you something on special occasions. When your name day comes along he doesnât find you the most expensive or flashy gift, instead he gets you something which is specially made for you.
Acts of service: If Jon could, he would do everything for you, he doesnât want to see you stressed or worried about anything. Which is why if you mention you donât want to do something even with just one word, heâll be there to do it for you. Heâll wake up earlier and stay up late to attend chores you once mentioned not liking to do, without single complaint. If you wake up in the middle of the night and quietly mutter how itâs too cold in the chambers, Jon will be running to get you another pair of furs without second thoughts.
Physical touch: Heâs a touch starved man and all he wants to do is to be as close to you as possible. As soon as he feels the soft touch of your hands on him, playing with soft curls or holding his hands he will melt so fast. Growing up he never thought heâll ever be met with such softness and kindness you give to him and he will cherish it with everything in him. And Jon never fails to make you feel wanted and loved back. He loves to pull you on his lap as his hand tightly wraps around your waist, and his cold hand will always find yours holding onto tightly.

đđđ¸âĄ Genre: fluff ⢠angst
đđđ¸âĄ Summary: When you left with Sansa to Kings Landing, you and Jon made a promise full of whispered confessions and kisses that youâd see eachother again. Now, after four years of physical and psychological trauma, you and Sansa were brought to the wall where you reunited with a lost love.

đđđ¸âĄ Word Count: 6.6k
đđđ¸âĄ A/N: this is probably the most angst/yearning filled story Iâve ever written. But I donât like just sad times so donât worry, has a bit of a happy ending.
The godswood was hushed in the way only Winterfellâs heart could be, snow dusting the red leaves of the weirwood as if the old gods themselves had drawn a shroud over their sacred place.
You had slipped away from the warmth of the hall hours ago, heart pounding in your chest like a caged bird, cloak drawn tight against the late-winter air.
The fire inside had been stifling, filled with last-minute farewells and worried glances from those sworn to Sansaâs side. You had smiled where you were supposed to, dipped your head politely, hidden the way your stomach twisted at every mention of Kingâs Landing.
The capital was a world awayâbright, dangerous, and full of vipers. Everyone knew it, though few dared to say so aloud.
It was Jon who had found you here.
His boots crunched softly over the frosted ground, his breath misting pale in the moonlight. You turned at the sound, and even before your eyes landed on him, something inside you eased. Jon Snow was not a man who belonged to many things, but he had always belonged to you.
âI knew youâd be out here.â he said, voice low, almost hesitant.
âJon.â You tried to smile, though it trembled. âI thought youâd be with Robb and your brothers.â
âTheyâll have me enough in the morning.â He shifted his weight, his dark curls falling into his eyes. âI wanted⌠one last moment. With you.â
The words cracked something open in your chest. You held your cloak tighter, not against the cold, but against the swell of longing you feared might undo you entirely.
Jon stepped closer, the moonlight catching on his pale skin, the soft fur at his collar catching the few snowflakes that were falling. He had always been beautiful to youâquietly so, in the way snow was beautiful. Not dazzling, but steadfast. Constant. A quiet kind of wonder that settled deep in your bones.
âYou leave tomorrow,â he murmured, as if saying it aloud made it more real. âWith Sansa.â
âYes.â Your throat tightened around the word.
His jaw worked, a muscle ticking there as though he fought with words he did not know how to shape. His fingers twitched through his gloves. That was Jonâs wayâfull of things he wanted to say, never certain how to say them. But tonight, perhaps, the weight of time pressed too heavy for silence.
âI donât like it,â he confessed at last. âI donât trust the south. I donât trust their people, or their court. You shouldnât have to go.â
âI serve Sansa,â you said gently, though your own doubts had plagued you for weeks.âWhere she goes, I go. Sheâll need me.â
Jon nodded, though his eyes burned with a helplessness that hollowed you. âAye. She will. But who will I have, when youâre gone?â
The words were like a knife twisted between your ribs, but you knew he never meant it in a malicious way.
You reached for him without thinking, your fingers brushing his gloved hand. For a heartbeat, he didnât move. Then he caught your hand firmly, as though anchoring himself to the only truth he knew.
âJon,â you whispered.
âI donât have much to give you, there not much a bastard can offer,â he said, voice rough with urgency, âbut I swear this: Iâll see you again. No matter how long it takes. No matter what it costs.â
Your eyes stung, tears threatening as you tried to hold them back. âDonât promise me that,â you breathed. âYou donât know what the world will bring.â
âThen let it bring what it will.â He stepped closer, his free hand rising to cup your cheek. His palm was cold, roughened with callouses, but the touch set your skin alight. âIâll find you again. Not even the Wall could keep me from you.â
You couldnât fight it anymore. The tears slid hot down your cheeks, and before you could think better of it, you leaned in and pressed your lips to his.
The kiss was soft at first, tentative, like a question neither of you had dared to ask. Then it deepened, desperation bleeding into every brush of lips, every shiver of breath.
Jon held you as if he feared youâd vanish with the morning, and you clung back with equal fervor, pouring every unsaid word, every hidden longing, into that single moment.
When you broke apart, foreheads pressed together, both of you trembling, the world seemed to hold its breath.
âYouâre mine,â Jon whispered, as if speaking it might make it true across distance and years. âNo matter where you go. No matter what happens. Youâll always be mine.â
Your heart broke and healed in the same beat. You nodded, letting your hand rest over his racing heart. âAnd you, mine.â
The godswood bore witness to your vow, the red leaves whispering overhead like a thousand unseen eyes. In the stillness, you almost believed that the promise would be enough to hold back the storm.
You did not know, then, how cruel the years would be. You did not know the faces of kings or monsters, the taste of blood in your mouth, or the weight of scars yet unearned.
But you carried that kiss with you. That promise.
And so did Jon.
The road south seemed endless. Spring crept cautiously across the land, but to you, it felt nothing like the renewal you had known in the North.
Here, the air grew warmer too quickly, the winds carried dust instead of snowflakes, and the nights were louderâfilled with insects, strangers, and the constant groaning wheels of the royal carriage.
Sansa rode ahead often, her auburn hair glinting bright in the sun, a sight that caught the kingâs eye far too easily. She carried herself proudly, as she had been taught, the picture of a lady betrothed to a prince. You followed quietly, as was your place, a shadow at her side. Lady-in-waiting, companion, shield when needed. You did not envy her; you pitied her, though you did not let her see it.
At night, when the fires burned low and the camp settled, Sansa would sometimes lie awake, staring at the stars as though they might tell her the shape of her future. Youâd sit beside her, mending a sleeve or brushing her hair.
âDo you think it will be as wonderful as they say?â she asked once, her voice wistful. âKingâs Landing. The Red Keep. The court. The songs always speak of it as though itâs a dream.â
You hesitated. âDreams can be fair or foul, my lady.â You didnât want to dim her spark but you also needed her to understand that things could be different than the way they were exaggerated in the songs and tales.
Sansa frowned, childlike, as if the thought had never occurred to her. âIt has to be wonderful,â she said, almost fiercely. âIt must.â
You smoothed her braid and said nothing. Deep inside, you thought of Jonâs eyes in the godswoodâdark, worried, warningâand wished you could carry that look with you as armor.

The capital was dazzling in its own way: white stone towers catching the sunlight, banners snapping in the breeze, streets teeming with color and sound. Sansa gasped at the sight, her hands clasped in yours like a child too excited to contain themselves.
You, however, did not gasp. Your stomach twisted. For all its splendor, Kingâs Landing smelled of rot beneath the perfumeâfish left too long on the docks, waste tossed into alleys, sweat baking in the sun.
You had such a bad feeling in your gut but you were here for Sansa. You wouldnât let your fears and doubts get in the way of her happiness.
In the Red Keep, you learned your place quickly. Sansa was betrothed to the crown prince, and every eye turned on her with calculation. The queenâs smiles were sharp like knives. The courtiersâ laughter hid teeth. Even the servants seemed sharper here, watching for weakness they could exploit.
You walked a step behind Sansa, hands folded, eyes lowered, and yet still you felt the weight of it pressing on you. They saw you as hersâher shadow, her confidante. That meant you were worth something, and in Kingâs Landing, worth was a dangerous thing.
The cruelties began softly. A jab at dinner about your northern accent. A mocking look when you stumbled over the endless stairs of the Keep. Servants whispering when you passed, calling you âthe wolf girlâs shadow.â
You bore it quietly, for Sansaâs sake. She needed to shine, to impress, to stand proud before her prince. When she blushed beneath Joffreyâs compliments, you forced yourself to smile too, though something about his smirk made your skin crawl.
At night, Sansa would chatter about himâhow handsome he was, how noble, how gallant. You nodded, you hummed agreement, and you swallowed your doubts.
But sometimes, when she slept, you sat by the window and thought of Winterfell. Of snow on your lashes, of quiet halls, of Jonâs arms around you. The memory of his kiss was still fresh enough to warm you against the cold stone of your chambers.
The first true cruelty came on the kingsroad, long before Kingâs Landing had taught you its lessons in full. The clash between Arya and Joffrey, the chaos with Nymeria, the way Sansa was pulled between love for her sister and her betrothedâit cracked something in her.
That night, she wept in your lap.
âI didnât mean it,â she sobbed, clutching at your gown. âI didnât want her hurt. I only wanted him toââ
âI know.â You stroked her hair, rocking her gently, holding her close as if you could take away the pain that way. âI know, Sansa.â
Her tears soaked your skirts, but you let them. Better you than anyone else. You whispered the old songs of the North until she slept, your own eyes burning with helplessness.
In the months that followed, you learned the rhythms of the court. The morning greetings, the endless prayers, the meals where every bite carried hidden meaning. Sansa grew more quiet as the days went on, her laughter grew stiff, and her smiles were painted on with effort.
You stayed close to her, ever ready with a handkerchief, a brush, a word of comfort. When Joffrey snapped at her, you bowed your head. When the queen corrected her, you curtsied deeper. When Sansa trembled after, you whispered courage in her ear.
You found yourself doing the same for other handmaidens in your court. Wiping their tears when a nobles hand touched where it shouldnât, sneaking them food when theyâve been dealing with a particularly cruel noble.
Once, when Joffrey struck a handmaiden across the face for hesitating too long over an answer, you stepped forward without thinking. The kingâs eyes landed on you, sharp and amused.
âWould you take her punishment, girl?â he sneered.
You did not flinch. You would not give him that satisfaction. âIf it pleases you, your grace.â
The back of his hand came fast and cruel. Your lip split, your cheek burned, but you kept your gaze steady. Sansa cried out, but you shook your head quickly, silently begging her not to speak for the fear he would turn his hand onto her.
Later, in the privacy of her chamber, she pressed a cool cloth to your face with trembling hands.
âYou shouldnât have done that,â she whispered to you, her concern evident in her voice.
âIâd do it again,â you said simply.
Her eyes filled with tears. She leaned her head on your shoulder and clutched your hand tightly, as if afraid you might vanish too.
It was not all torment. There were momentsâbrief, fragileâwhere Sansaâs old self shone through. When she laughed at a story, when she hummed as you braided her hair, when she whispered to you about the snow she missed so dearly.
But those moments grew fewer. The queenâs shadow loomed long, and Joffreyâs moods turned sharper.
You bore the weight with her. You let them mock you, hurt you, use you as shield and scapegoat. Because every time you stepped between Sansa and their cruelty, you saw relief in her eyes, and that was enough.
At night, when she finally slept, you let yourself think of Jon. You remembered the way he would hold your face, the warmth of his kisses. The love in his words. You wondered if he thought of you still.
And when you whispered his name into the silence, you almost believed the old gods carried it northward, across the leagues of stone and snow, to where he waited.
The day everything broke began with shouting in the streets. Rumors ran faster than the wind: Ned Stark, arrested. Treason. Plotting to steal the throne.
You could hardly breathe as you ran to Sansaâs side, finding her pale and shaking in her chamber. âTheyâve lied,â she said to you over and over, as though repeating it could change what was happening. âHeâs good, heâs honorableâhe would neverââ
You held her, though your own heart cracked. You knew Eddard Stark was an honorable man. He held the laws and regulations of court as well as his duties to high regard. He would never do or be what theyâve accused. But you and Sansa were just small pieces in a too big and malicious world. There was nothing you two could do.
The days blurred. Pleas to the queen and Joffery. Tears. Desperation. You stayed strong for her, even as your stomach continued to fill with dread.
And then came the day of the execution.
You were given the âcourtesyâ to stand with Sansa next to the execution block. You believed it gave Joffery a sort of sick pleasure for you to be there to witness Sansaâs life officially fall apart. The sun was too bright, the air too sharp, and every sound seemed to echo.
When the axe fell, when Ned Starkâs head struck the ground, Sansa screamed.
You caught her before she collapsed, though your own knees nearly gave way. The world tilted, broke, shattered. Around you, the crowd roared, jeered, cheered.
You held her face to your chest, shielding her eyes, your own tears hot on your cheeks, your eyes locked on the severed head that laid disrespected on the ground. But you could not shield her ears, nor your own, from the sound that would haunt you both forever.
The moment Winterfellâs dream died.
The days after Lord Starkâs beheading blurred together in shades of grief and terror.
The North had always been your compass, its honor a steady star, but in Kingâs Landing that star had been shattered before your eyes.
Sansa hardly spoke if it wasnât to you. She moved like a doll wound too tightly, her smiles brittle, her eyes empty. You dressed her, brushed her hair, whispered comfort she no longer seemed to hear. You wanted to rage, to weep, but you swallowed it. She needed you strong, even if she could not be strong herself.
The court was merciless. Joffrey preened with his crown, the queen smirked her triumph, and the courtiers whispered gleefully of treason and justice. You became Sansaâs shield in truth, stepping forward when she faltered, bowing deeper when she forgot herself.
When Joffrey forced her to look upon her fatherâs head on a spike, Sansa swayed as if she might faint. You caught her hand tightly, whispering, âDonât let them see you fall.â
Your own knees nearly gave way when the boy-king turned his eyes on you. âAh, the little wolfâs shadow,â he said with a cruel grin. âStill following her around like a dog? Perhaps weâll find a place for you at court too. A whipping girl, maybe.â
The laughter that followed was jagged as broken glass.
You bowed your head, jaw clenched, nails digging into your palms. You said nothing. Later, in the quiet of her chamber, you let Sansa sob against your shoulder until her throat was raw.
Life in the Red Keep became a game of endurance for you two. Each day brought new humiliations, new cruelties. You learned to read Joffreyâs moods before he struck. You learned when to distract the queenâs attention to spare Sansa a question. You learned silence was often the only shield you had.
And yetâthere were unlikely mercies.
Tyrion Lannister was not like the rest of his kin. Sharp-tongued, yes, but his wit never carried cruelty. When he became Hand of the King, the court sneered at him, but you watched closely. He listened to Sansa where others mocked her. He offered small kindnessesâa word, a nod, a cup of watered wine when her hands shook.
You began to exchange quiet words with him too. Once, after Joffrey had humiliated Sansa before the court, Tyrion found you in a corridor, your hands trembling with fury you dared not show.
âBest not to let the boy see your anger,â he advised softly.
You stiffened, but his eyes held no malice. Only weariness.
âI donât need your counsel, my lord,â you murmured.
âPerhaps not.â He inclined his head. âBut the both of you need allies, even small ones. And youâll find few here willing to bleed for the last two wolves in the keep.â
It startled you. But over time, you allowed small trust to grow. Tyrion never overstepped, never treated you with scorn. It was a strange friendshipâquiet, unspoken, but real.
Sometimes, when Sansa slept, you wondered if he saw in you the same thing in you two that you saw in him: a soul trying to survive in a place built to crush the weak.
The day of Joffreyâs wedding to Margaery Tyrell dawned bright and hot. You dressed Sansa carefully, smoothing her gown, braiding her hair with steady hands though your stomach churned with dread. Weddings were meant to be joyful, but here, joy felt like a dangerous facade.
The feast was a blur of music and laughter, though every sound seemed brittle. Joffrey strutted, drunk on power and wine, tormenting Sansa with jests and cruel mockery. You kept your gaze down, your hands folded tight, praying silently for the night to end.
And thenâchaos.
Joffrey coughing, choking, his face turning purple as he clawed at his throat. Screams. Shouts. The queenâs shrill cry.
You froze, one arm instinctively around Sansaâs waist. You watched as the boy-king convulsed, as the hall erupted. You felt no pity. You felt no mourning. Only a hollow, stunned silence.
But then all eyes turned. To Sansa. To Tyrion. To you. To anyone who might bear blame.
âCome,â whispered Ser Dontos, suddenly urgent at your side. âNow. Quickly, if you two want to live.â
Sansa trembled, wide-eyed, and you pulled her close. You trusted no oneâbut in that instant, you knew staying meant nothing but death. You nodded sharply and tugged her along.
The next moments were a blur of rushing feet, pounding heartbeats, shadows and alleys. You clutched Sansaâs hand as though letting her go meant losing her forever.
By the time you reached the river, breathless and terrified, the Red Keep was behind you.
King Joffrey was dead.
And you were fugitives.
The escape was not salvation. It was the beginning of a new kind of prison.
Sansaâs marriage to Tyrion had never been consummated, yet it still marked her in the eyes of Westeros. She was a pawn, a prize, a Stark of Winterfell with claim and name worth killing for.
Wherever you went, hunters followed.
When Littlefingerâs schemes wound their way to the Eyrie and beyond, you found yourself swept into a web of lies and dangers. You absolutely loathed him, yet you had no power to break free. All you could do was cling to Sansa, whispering reassurance when she doubted herself, bearing the scorn of others so her shoulders could remain lighter.
But nothing could prepare you for Ramsay Bolton.
When Sansa was handed to him, you went tooâher shadow still, her shield, her sister in all but name.
The dread set in the moment you stepped through the gates of Winterfell reborn. The castle was familiar yet twisted, its stones haunted by memory. The banners bore the flayed man now, crimson on pale, a grotesque mockery of what was once your home.
Sansaâs face was carved from ice as she was presented as bride. You stood at her side, head bowed, every muscle tight with foreboding.
And Ramsay⌠Ramsay smiled.
Life in Winterfell under Ramsay was worse than Kingâs Landing in its cruelty. Joffrey had been a spoiled boy with far too much power; Ramsay was something else entirely. Something darker.
He delighted in fear, in pain, in breaking spirits. And when he turned that attention to Sansa, you stepped between them as often as you dared.
Sometimes it worked. Sometimes it did not.
When Ramsay struck her, you moved forward. When he demanded obedience, you took the punishment in her stead. He seemed to relish it, amused by your defiance, by how far you would go to protect her.
The bruises became your constant companions. The nights bled into terror. But Sansa endured, and so did you.
âWhy do you always stand in front of me?â she asked once, her voice trembling as you cleaned blood from your lip.
âBecause I can,â you whispered. âBecause I must.â
Her eyes glistened. âI donât want you hurt for me.â
âItâs too late for that,â you said softly. âYou mean a lot to me, Sansa. If taking a beating means you live another day, I would do it ten times over.â
You embraced then, two broken pieces clinging together in the cold. In that moment, you were not lady and servant, not Stark and companionâyou were sisters.
And always, in the silence of your heart, you thought of Jon.
On the darkest nights, when Ramsayâs laughter echoed in the halls and despair threatened to swallow you, you clung to the memory of the godswood. Of his lips against yours, his voice promising, âNot even the Wall could keep me from you.â
You repeated it to yourself like a prayer. You had to believe it. You had to believe he was somewhere at the wall also repeating your words in his mind. You had to.
Because if you didnât, you feared you would not survive.
Unbeknownst to you, Jon was going through his own version of struggles.
The Wall did not sleep. It groaned and sighed like some great beast, its ice shifting with the wind, its surface glittering cold beneath the pale sun. For Jon Snow, it had long since ceased to be a wonder. It was home now, though home was a word that rang hollow in his chest.
Winterfell was gone to him. The halls of his childhood, the voices of his kin, the warmth of the hearthâthose belonged to another life. His was the black now: the rough wool of his cloak, the bite of wind against his skin, the weight of duty on his shoulders.
And yet, even here, your memory would sit with him.
At first it was only at night. He would close his eyes and remember the day you met, the way your love grew until the two of you couldnât ignore it. He remembered the godswood, the snow in your hair, the way your lips had trembled against his when you kissed him. He would remember the promise he had madeâIâll see you again.
When the days were long and grueling, when his muscles ached from training recruits or from long patrols on the ice, he would hear your laughter in his memory. He had not realized how often you laughed, how often your smile had cut through the gloom of Winterfellâs stone halls. Here, without it, the silence was heavier.
He never spoke of you. Not to Sam, not to Grenn, only to Ghost, who watched him with red eyes that seemed to know too much.
You were his secret, his solace.
When the Watch brothers named him Lord Commander, Jon felt the weight of it settle like a yoke across his shoulders. He had not sought it, had not desired it, yet it was his. He bore it with quiet resolve.
But still, there were nights when he stood at the top of the Wall, looking north into endless white, and thought of you. Did you still live? Did you still smile? Or had the vipers of the south swallowed you whole?
The uncertainty gnawed at him more than the cold ever could. He had promised. He had promised. What was a man if he could not keep his word?
Sometimes, when exhaustion left him weak, he let himself imagine you walking through the gates of Castle Black, cloak heavy with snow. He would step forward, take your hand, kiss your snow touched lips and at last breathe again.
It was foolish. But it kept him warm when the wind cut sharp enough to bleed.
The knives came fast.
He had known discontent brewed among the brothers. His choice to side with the Wildlings was not a choice they approved of. He had heard the whispers, seen the looks. But he had not expected the steel.
âFor the Watch.â
The first blade pierced his side. Jon gasped, the cold sharper than fire. Faces swam before himâmen he had led, men he had trusted. And yet they carved him open as though he were nothing.
Another blade. Another voice. âFor the Watch.â
Jon fell to his knees, his vision darkening. He thought of Robb, of Arya and Sansa, and Bran and Rickon. He thought of Winterfell, of snow falling on the courtyard.
And thenâhe thought of you.
Your face rose in his mind, clearer than any memory of banners or blades. The way you had looked at him that night, eyes full of fear of the future and love for him, lips whispering his name. He felt the press of your hand against his chest as though it were there still.
As the final knife slid home, Jon let the darkness take him with one thought: At least⌠perhaps Iâll see her again.
But death was not the end.
He woke gasping, the world searing bright, his lungs burning as if they had forgotten how to draw breath. His body was cold, too cold, and his heart hammered as though it might burst.
They told him later of Melisandre, of sorcery and fire. Jon heard, but he hardly listened. The only thing he knew was this: he had been given back.
Why?
He did not know. But in the dark of his chamber, he whispered your name, voice hoarse, and something inside him ached with fierce certainty.
Not even death could keep him from you.
Afterward, everything felt rawer. The cold sharper, the silence deeper, the world thinner. He did his duty stillâmet with the wildlings, bore the stares of the brothers, walked the halls like a ghost among men. He had brought the betrayers to justice with a face too tired to give away any other emotion.
But the thought of you no longer brought him solace. It was a knife twisting in his ribs, sharper now than ever. Because he had come so close to never keeping his promise. Because he feared he had failed you already.
Yet he clung to it. To you.
He remembered your hand in his. The vow spoken beneath the weirwood. The kiss that had been both beginning and farewell.
Jon Snow was many thingsâbastard, brother, commander, corpseâbut he was still yours. And if there was any justice left in the world, any bit of good, the old gods would lead you back to him.
Winterfell was a cage.
Its stones were familiar, but they carried no warmth. They echoed with Ramsayâs laughter, with the scrape of locks and bolts, with screams muffled by walls too thick.
The days blurred into dread. Sansa endured with a face carved from frost, but you saw the cracks: the way her hands trembled as you braided her hair, the way she flinched when boots sounded in the corridor. You hid your own bruises, your own scars, as best you could, but some could not be hidden.
You shielded her when you could, always stepping forward, always drawing Ramsayâs cruelty toward yourself. He delighted in it. Sometimes he hurt you simply to watch Sansa break. And each time, you wondered how much more your body could take, how much more your spirit could bear.
But still you clung to the promise whispered years ago in the godswood. Iâll see you again. You whispered Jonâs name into the dark, and sometimes it was the only thing that kept you from collapsing.
Hope came in flickers.
Sansa whispered of an old woman in the kitchens, of promises that help would come if she lit a candle in the tower. You listened, heart pounding, afraid to believe.
But one night, you crept with her to the broken window, the cold biting your skin. Together, you struck the flint, the flame trembling as though it too feared discovery.
You stood shoulder to shoulder with her, the two of you staring into the night, praying someone saw.
âDo you think anyone will come?â she asked softly.
You took her hand, squeezing. âSomeone will.â
For both your sakes, you had to believe it.
Theon Greyjoy was a ghost of the arrogant boy you once knew. You had grown up with him in Winterfell, seen him boast, laugh, strut like a rooster. That boy was gone. In his place was a broken man who called himself Reek, eyes hollow, shoulders bent beneath invisible chains.
At first, you despised him. For betraying your house, for standing idle as you and Sansa suffered. For being Ramsayâs creature.
But there were momentsâsmall, tremblingâwhere his old self flickered through. A glance, a word, a hand hesitating where once it would have obeyed.
And then one night, when Ramsayâs cruelty pressed too far, Theon found you both.
âYou canât stay here,â he whispered, eyes darting in terror. âHeâll kill you. Or worse.â
Sansa stiffened, her voice icy. âAnd why should we trust you?â
âBecauseâŚâ His throat worked, tears glinting in his broken eyes. âBecause I canât watch him hurt you anymore. Not after everything Iâve done.â
You studied him, your heart heavy. He was no longer the boy youâd known, but something in his voice rang true. Perhaps even broken things could still choose to stand.
âThen help us,â you said softly, taking his shaking hand in your own. âProve it.â
The escape came on a night when the snow fell heavy, muffling the world in white. Theon led you through hidden passages, his steps sure even as his hands shook. You held Sansaâs arm tightly, your heart pounding with every creak of the stones.
Behind you, Winterfell slept fitfully. You prayed Ramsay did not wake.
At the battlements, the drop yawned below, the snow piled thick.
âWeâll never survive it,â Sansa whispered.
âWeâll die if we stay,â you murmured back.
Theonâs face was pale, his breath ragged. âItâs the only way.â
You looked at Sansa, at the girl you had followed from Winterfell to Kingâs Landing to this twisted mockery of home. You thought of all you had endured together, all the nights you had held her when she cried, all the blows you had taken for her.
âIf you jump, I jump,â you said firmly.
Her eyes filled, but she nodded. Together, you grasped hands. And thenâ
You leapt.
The air tore past you, the snow rushed up, the world spun white. Impact stole your breath, pain lancing through your body. But you lived. You lived.
And for the first time in years, the gates of Winterfell no longer held you prisoner.
The snows were merciless, but hope was fiercer. You stumbled through the drifts with Sansa, half-carrying her when she faltered, half-dragged yourself forward when your own legs nearly gave out. Theon pressed on too, his face a mask of determination and guilt.
When riders cameâBolton men, huntingâthe end felt near. You braced yourself, clutching the small dagger youâd stolen, prepared to die before you let them take you back.
And then a shadow thundered from the trees.
A woman, tall as a tower, sword flashing in the pale light. She struck with fury, cutting down men twice her size as though they were stalks of wheat. Beside her, a squire fought valiantly, though clumsily.
Brienne of Tarth.
You had heard whispers of herâa woman knight, sworn to Catelyn Stark.
You knew the squire too. Podrick had been a good friend to you in your years in Kings Landing.
When she dismounted before you, kneeling in the snow, her voice rang with a vow that made your knees weak.
âLady Sansa. I swore to your mother I would keep her daughters safe. I offer you my sword and my life.â
Sansaâs lips trembled, tears freezing on her cheeks as she looked at you. She looked afraid to trust another person and you couldnât blame her. Both of your walls had been built with iron, refusing to crumble anymore. You steadied her with a hand, your own chest aching.
âYou can trust her,â you whispered, though your voice shook.
And for the first time in what felt like forever, you believed it.
Under Brienneâs protection, the path turned northward. The snow was bitter, the road perilous, but for the first time in years you felt a flicker of true hope.
At night, huddled by the fire, you and Sansa whispered of what lay ahead.
âJon is Lord Commander now,â she said softly, as though afraid the words might vanish if spoken too loud.
Your heart clenched at his name. âJon?â
âYes.â A small, trembling smile touched her lips. âAt Castle Black. If we can reach himââ
You closed your eyes, the image burning bright. Jon, alive. Waiting. The promise not yet broken.
Sansa reached from her own horse to hold your hand, the same flicker of hope in her eyes. She knew what Jon meant to you.
You let yourself whisper into the wind, so quiet no one else could hear: âNot even the Wall could keep him from me.â
And as the snow fell, you prayed the gods were listening.
The gates of Castle Black groaned open beneath the weight of the storm. Snow swirled in great white sheets, the wind cutting through wool and fur alike, but you barely felt it. Your pulse thundered too loud, your chest too tight. Each step forward was an agony of anticipation.
Sansaâs hand gripped yours from her own horse, trembling though she tried to hide it. Brienne and Pod fell behind, giving her space. Even Theon lingered back, eyes lowered, his shoulders hunched in shame.
And then he was there.
Jon.
Standing in the courtyard, dark cloak swirling about him, hair damp with snow. His face was pale, lined with weariness deeper than his years, but his eyesâgods, his eyes were the same. Grey as a storm sky, piercing as ever, widening now with disbelief.
For a heartbeat, no one moved. The wind howled, snow whipped, and the years between you stretched like a chasm. Jon and Sansa simply stared at eachother, almost as if they believed the other was simply an illusion.
Then Sansa broke.
She stumbled forward, a sound torn from her throat, half a sob, half a laugh. Jon caught her, arms wrapping around her so tightly you thought he might never let her go and you found your lips curling into a smile for the first time in a long time.
âJon,â she gasped, clinging to him. âItâs youâitâs really you.â
He buried his face in her hair, his shoulders shaking. âSansa.â His voice cracked. âI thought Iâd lost you as well.â
You watched, tears stinging your eyes, your chest aching with the sight of them. Brother and sister, torn apart, reunited at last. You wanted to give them this moment, every heartbeat of it.
When at last Sansa pulled back, Jon cupped her face in his hands, studying her with a mix of grief and relief. Then, slowly, his gaze shifted.
To you.
His breath caught. His hands fell away from Sansaâs face, hanging uselessly at his sides. His eyes widened, then softened, then filled with something rawer than you had ever seen.
âLoveâŚ?â
Your ever lasting pet name on his lips shattered you.
It was not the first time you had heard itâhe had whispered it to you many in Winterfellâs court and godswood, murmured it in stolen kisses. But now, after four years of silence, after the weight of torment and separation, it felt like a miracle.
You stepped forward, your legs unsteady, tears blurring the world. âJonâŚâ
And then you were finally in his arms.
He crushed you against him, as though afraid you might vanish if he loosened his hold. You buried your face in his neck, sobs tearing free, your fists clutching tightly at his cloak.
âI thoughtâyou were gone,â you choked.
âI thought the same of you,â he whispered, his voice breaking. His hands framed your face then, trembling as his thumbs brushed the tears from your cheeks. His eyes devoured you, searching every line, every scar, as though to assure himself you were real.
âYouâre alive,â he said, over and over, like a prayer. âGods, youâre alive.â
Your laugh was a broken thing, wet with tears. âBarely.â
At that, his expression shifted. Grief. Rage. His gaze dropped to the faint bruises at your throat, the scars you could not hide. His jaw clenched, his whole body taut with fury held barely in check.
âWhat did they do to you?â His voice was hoarse, dangerous.
You shook your head quickly, pressing your forehead to his. âNot now. Please. Just hold me.â
And he did. He held you as though he could keep the world itself at bay.
Later, when the storm eased and warmth could be found in the Great Hall, the four of youâJon, Sansa, you, Brienneâsat together. Food was laid out, though you barely touched it. Your eyes stayed on Jon, drinking in every detail, afraid to blink.
Sansa held your hand, her head resting on your shoulder, the tension in her shoulders easing for the first time in years. Brienne stood guard nearby, silent as ever, but you felt her watchful gaze soften.
Jon reached across the table, his hand finding yours beneath the wood. His fingers twined with yours, rough and warm, and for a moment it was as though no time had passed.
âI kept my promise,â he murmured low, for you alone.
Tears burned again. âSo did I.â
That night, in the quiet of a chamber that held nothing but you and him, you showed him the truth.
You let the cloak fall from your shoulders, revealing the bruises, the scars, the thinness of a body too long starved and beaten. His eyes roved over you, and the pain there nearly undid you.
âEvery mark,â he whispered, his hands shaking as they hovered just shy of your skin, âis one more Iâll carry with you. Theyâll never touch you again. I swear it.â
You reached for him, cupping his cheek, forcing his stormy gaze to meet yours. âJon Snow,â you said softly, firmly, âyou are the only thing that kept me alive. Every day, every night, I thought of you. Of our promise. Thatâs why I survived.â
His lips trembled, and then he kissed you.
It was not the hurried, secretive kiss of Winterfell, nor the desperate imagining of years apart. It was broken and healing all at once, tasting of tears and firelight, of longing finally, finally fulfilled.
When you pulled apart, your foreheads pressed together, Jon whispered, âNot even death could keep me from you.â
And for the first time in years, you believed in tomorrow.
thinking about how your words mean something to jon snow
even if theyâre said in teasing, accompanied with a laugh or a smile, heâs always attentive to what you say. he knows what itâs like to have people not listen to you â for people to disregard your words or not take them as seriously as they should.
so he always listens. always pays attention. to jon, every word of yours carries weight. every single one.
a remark of âyuck,â when feeding the messenger ravens at castle black breakfast and they do something truly disgusting with their beaks, though you huff a small laugh afterward, jonâs already catalogued it. he wakes up earlier to feed them so you donât have to, but has you feed them midday so you donât get suspicious when theyâre not so greedy and quick to choke.
even when heâs in a mood, or (rarely) ale-sung, heâs attentive. a muttered âstop, jon,â to his teasing â though said with a smile & only to deflect from your flushed features â and stop, he does. he presses a kiss to your hair in an apology, even though you donât need one.
a sarcastic âmove,â when in close proximity â heâs already taking a step back (he wasnât even in the way); a muttered âhuh?â when someoneâs explaining something (and of course he notices, no matter how quiet you were) â he leans down to whisper a further explanation in your ear. âgods, its cold,â while outside doing your chores, and he quietly goes to light your hearth so itâs warm in your chambers when you return (mutter a wish to see his lungs and heâll part his ribs)

he notices immediately when you were staring at him like a predator on the hunt.
ââŚwhy are you looking at me like that,â he asked, voice slightly tinged with fear as he paused midâpull-up stretch. to your eyes, his sweaty tan skin looked so hot right now. his spiky hair that stuck to his forehead seemed so attractive. his slight groaning made you press your thighs together.
you just squinted at him, inhaling.
âhaji,â you said thoughtfully, âyou look really⌠scrumptious today.â
he nearly dropped the dumbbell, now realizing what was going on, he blinked.
âwhat?â
you tilted your head, eyes tracing him like you were appraising a five-star meal. you make a squeezing motion as you stared down at his biceps, biting your lip in the process.
âhon, are you ovulating right now?â he asked, defeated.
âdid you just ask me if you want me to be stuffed and filled with your babies? yes.â you admit, walking over to him and trailing your fingers down his chest.
god, help me. he thought to himself.
â
he rolled up his sleeves to wash the dishes.
he immediately looks at you when you gasp.
âwhatâs wrong?â he asked, concerned. you just bite your nail.
âyour forearms,â you whispered, reverent. âwhy would you do that to me this early.â
ââŚtheyâre just arms.â he says, drying his hands on the towel.
âno,â you corrected. âtheyâre your arms. I want them wrapped around my neck. although if you want, your hands are fine too.â you say, he just showed a tight-lipped smile, like heâs trying not to laugh.
he thinks youâre dangerous.
you leaned against the counter, chin in your hands.
âdo you work out for me specifically?â
his brain malfunctions, what was he supposed to say to that?
âI guess?â
âis that right?â you ask, smiling mischievously as you squeeze his arms. you caressed the skin on his arm, then bit your lip.
"ah-ah, hon I know what you're planning to do." he says, immediately covering your mouth with his palms, which you lick in return. he looks unfazed, you pout and just turned your back on him and walked once corner of the kitchen and laid your forehead on the pillar.
"that's right, give yourself a timeout." he teased.
â
later, you were curled up together on the living room couch, some show playing in the background neither of you was really watching.
your legs were draped over his lap, his arm solid and warm around your shoulders. he was focused on the screen, jaw relaxed, thumb absently tracing slow circles against your arm.
you can feel his broad chest and strong shoulders.
god, please hold me back. you thought.
you tilted your head back to look at him, eyes lingering shamelessly.
âhaji.â
he hummed without looking away. âwhat.â
without thinking, no filter, no hesitation, you blurted, "haji, let me have your babies.â
the sound he made wasnât quite a gasp, not quite a choke.
the show kept playing but he did not move.
then very slowly he turned his head to look at you.
ââŚexcuse me.â
your eyes widened. you clapped a hand over your mouth. âI DIDNâT MEAN IT LIKE THATââ
âyes you did.â
âI MEANT IT AFFECTIONATELY.â
âthere is no affectionate way to say that.â
you were already laughing, face burning. âI can't help it!â
he dragged a hand down his face, ears glowing red. âI am begging you to consult me before speaking.â
âI canât,â you said helplessly, snuggling closer. âmy brain is offline.â
he exhaled slowly, then shifted so you were straddling his lap and his hands settling firmly on your hips like he needed the grounding.
âyouâre lucky I know whatâs happening,â he said, voice low but fond. âotherwise Iâd think you were trying to ruin me.â
you grinned up at him. âwould it help if I said I just think youâd be a really good dad.â
that did it.
his grip tightened just slightly before he pulled you into his chest, forehead resting against yours.
ââŚyouâre not allowed to say that right now,â he muttered.
you hugged him back, content, cheek pressed to his shoulder.
âyouâre very headlockable.â
"I'd love it if you did that though." you smirked against his skin.
he snorted despite himself, pressing a kiss to your hair. "hon, just sit still and watch the show before you say something insane.â
"no." you muttered stubbornly, trailing kisses down his jaw.
well, who was hajime to deny you of your needs anyway.
"fine." he said, you grinned victoriously, immediately getting to your feet and practically dragged him into the bedroom.
â
a/n: okay, I'm in a creative slump, and busy finding an internship. boyfriend!iwaizumi is all I can give for now, sorry for being inactive. also, this is boyfriend iwaizumi hajime (27) athletic trainer okay. I love this series.
â âdo i really need to be shirtless for this?â hajime asks gruffly, sitting neatly on your dorm floor as you write on a piece of tape, godzilla t-shirt tossed unceremoniously on your bed.Â
your anatomy exam is coming up, and youâve been studying like your career depends on it (spoiler alert: it does), but youâve been going batshit crazy just staring at your notes. so what better way to get off the books than to hang out with your boyfriend?Â
âyes,â you reply, placing âpectoralis majorâ on his chest. âit wouldnât work the same if you had a shirt on. active recall, visual learning, and such.â âright,â he mutters, brow furrowed as he watches you. âsoâŚ?â âso, flex your deltoid,â you demand. âcâmon, haji. this is important.â he flexes his shoulder obediently, looking away as you stick another label on his body.Â
youâre kind of surprised hajime agreed to this in the first place; though honestly, you really didnât give him much of an explanation, simply texting him, âcome to my dorm @ 10pm,â with no further instructions. you laughed when he called at 9:42 saying he was at the building, having to hold it in as you led your bright-eyed boyfriend into your room.
âyou will be to blame if i donât pass this,â you tell him, revelling in the slight twitch of his body as you slide a finger over his skin to pat down the adhesive. âright. canât have that,â he says under his breath. you snicker. despite his reluctance, heâs not angry. maybe just disappointed. youâre not worried, though. heâd get what he came for soon enough.
sneaking a glance at him, you quickly scribble âteres minorâ on another scrap of tape. hajimeâs ears are bright red, but his bottom lip is pursed up and his jaw is tight. tell-tale signs of his enjoyment.Â
âi know youâre a little embarrassed, but i need you to lift your arm up for me,â you tell him sweetly, tape hanging from your fingertips. hajime lets out a flustered grumble in reply, dim light highlighting hard planes of muscle as he accedes.Â
âitâs kind of itchy,â he says, after a moment. âwell, itâs tape,â you answer matter-of-factly, pasting âfrontalisâ on his forehead, then look at him doubtfully. âalso, you need to stop scowling. you look cute when youâre not scowling.â ââm not scowling,â hajime says under his breath, but his eyebrows relax immediately. you bite the inside of your cheek. cute.
another couple minutes pass by as you continue to stick labels on him, humming a tune while you treat your poor boyfriend like a whiteboard.Â
â...how long will this take?â hajime asks, stiffly, two pieces of tape hanging off the hollows of his cheekbones. you stretch out, making a big show of checking the clock on the wall. itâs almost midnight. âiâm basically done,â you reply. âiâm not going over the accessory muscles.âÂ
hajime tilts his head, narrowing his eyes knowingly at you. âyeah, just wanna know, so iâm not peeling gemellus inferior out of my butt tomorrow,â he remarks wryly. you mirror his expression, enthused. âhah. i forgot you know this already.âÂ
hajime pinches your inner thigh playfully. it doesnât hurtâhe could never hurt youâbut you yelp anyway, more tickled than anything. âhey, iâm pretty smart, you know,â he reminds you, smoothing over the subtle sting with a callused thumb.Â
you scoot over towards him, running your hand down the label reading ârectus femoris.â âi know youâre pretty smart,â you say, gaze locked on his, âotherwise i wouldnât allow you to be sitting shirtless on my floor.â you pull, and the screech of tape being taken off skin is the only sound in the room for a second.
the sudden dilation of his pupils makes you laugh through your nose. âoh, thatâs all,â hajime says lightly, body hot under your touch. âbecause iâm smart.â âand muscular,â you add, leaning over him as he sits back on his forearms, watching you intently. âmm, thatâs part of it?â he asks, voice just breathless enough to make your stomach tighten.
âyeah,â you murmur, hooking a fingernail under âexternal oblique.â your eyes drop to his bare chest, then drag back up to his face as you smile. âdo you take a makeout session as gratuity for your model work?âÂ
hajime swallows, his jaw fluttering. a blush blooms over his cheeks and he rolls his eyes. âthatâs what i thought you called me here for,â he mumbles, warm hand coming up to rest on the curve of your lower back as you giggle. âcâmere.â
he peppers your face with soft kisses, leaving wet marks. your laughter fills the small room when you feel something sticky on your cheek.Â
âhaji, i canât take you serious with that stuff on your face!â âtake it off, then!â
hello. folks. birfday post 4 me and him cuz we junebugs like dat
picking up your husband iwaizumi hajime after his days work at the gym is over with your baby wrapped up on your chest. something had gone wrong with his car, resulting in it currently at the repair shop being fixed. this left you and your one year old son in charge of pick up duty. you slide open the door and step into the vast gymnasium of japanâs national menâs volleyball team, greeted with the sound of shoes squeaking on freshly polished hardwood floor and the smack of volleyballs being spiked over the net. sitting on a bench off to the side of the court is hajime, writing some type of report in a notebook with a focused expression. you walk along the sidelines to him, holding your babyâs head to shield him from any unsuspected volleyballs that may fly your way.
hajime only looks up from his work as you seat yourself next to him, typical. heâs always so focused and invested in his job. only during his work hours is he like this, thoughâhe always makes time for his two favorite people.
hajime smiles at you and places a kiss to your temple in greeting, putting his notebook and pen off to the side before shifting in his seat to face you more directly. âhey. didnât realize you were here.â
âmustâve lost track of time again, right?â
âas usual,â he admits a bit sheepishly, âi really need to finish filling out this sheet of supply orders for next month.â
âhmph. you have that nice smart watch but you hardly ever pay attention to when you need to clock out of work,â you gesture to the sleek black band on his wrist as you speak.
âsorry, love iââ his words are cut off by the babbling of your son, whoâs stubby arms are reaching for his papa. he looks up at his dad with wide and admiring eyes, dawning the same tan skin as his father and the same deep brown color in his wispy head of hair and irises. thereâs not a doubt in sight that heâs hajimeâs child; heâs practically the spitting image of him.
you two canât help but chuckle at his efforts to cling to his dad, his movements restricted by the wrap holding him close against your chest. âyou wanna give papa a hug?â you coo.
the restraint doesnât give in, and your son looks up at you with an adorably frustrated face of confusion and surprise at the spectacle. âyou canât get anywhere in this wrap, huh?â you say as you gently pull him out of the restraint, handing him off to hajime.
once your son is in hajimeâs arms, itâs within an instant that he wraps his small and chubby arms around his neck. hajime holds him securely against his chest, an affectionate laugh escaping his lips at the way his baby boy looks up at him with such adoring eyes. âlooks like you really missed your papa,â hajime says fondly before placing a peck to the top of his delicate head. at this, your baby giggles loudly and begins to blabber incoherent sentences, ones that hajime pretends to understand nonetheless.
âyou know, once we got here, he kept asking me âpapa?â the whole walk from the parking lot to the entrance. i guess he recognizes this place pretty well now.â
âoh, really?â at your words he peppers kisses all along your sonâs chubby cheeks, âpapa missed you too. so, so much.â
and itâs not without your son first being showered with praise and love from the team that the three of you leave to go home, praise that your baby accepts with innocent giggles and lots of squirmingâall from the comfort of his papaâs warm embrace. undoubtedly his favorite place to be.
The room was quiet, dimly lit by the orange glow of the streetlamp leaking through the curtains. Rain tapped softly against the windows while the TV played some movie neither of you were actually paying attention to anymore.
Iwaizumi laid back against the couch with you curled against his side, your head tucked beneath his chin while one of his hands lazily rubbed up and down your arm.
Youâd fallen asleep maybe twenty minutes ago.
He knew because your grip on his hoodie had loosened, your breathing evening out into something soft and steady. He smiled to himself, glancing down at you for a second.
Cute. Way too cute.
He looked back toward the TV, completely relaxed until he suddenly felt something soft press against his jaw.
Iwaizumi froze.
His eyes immediately darted downward.
You were still asleep against him.
ââŚWhat?â
Before he could even process it, your lips brushed against his cheek this time. A tiny sleepy kiss, absentminded and gentle, like you didnât even realize you were doing it.
His entire body locked up.
Slowly, he looked around the empty living room like someone else had seen that.
Then he looked back down at you with wide eyes.
âDid you justââ
Another kiss.
This one landed near the corner of his mouth.
His face immediately started heating up.
You didnât react afterward, just snuggled closer into his chest with a quiet sigh, still fully asleep.
Iwaizumi stared at you in complete disbelief.
You kissed him all the time when you were awakeâwalking past him in the kitchen, sitting next to him on campus, literally whenever you felt affectionateâbut this?
This was new, and somehow worse.
Because you werenât even conscious.
A few seconds passed before you shifted again, pressing one more sleepy kiss directly onto his lips.
Iwaizumiâs brain completely short-circuited.
His breath caught so suddenly he almost choked on it.
ââŚNo way,â he whispered, staring at you like youâd just done something illegal.
Meanwhile you only frowned slightly in your sleep, mumbling something incoherent before burying your face into his chest again.
Like nothing happened.
His heart was pounding embarrassingly hard now, ears burning red while he sat there stiff as a board, one hand hovering awkwardly over your back because he genuinely didnât know what to do with himself.
You kissed him again.
Tiny. Quick. Sleepy.
And that was what finally broke him.
A helpless grin spread across his face as he dropped his head back against the couch with a quiet groan. âYouâre seriously doing this unconsciously?â
You only cuddled closer in response.
Iwaizumi looked down at you again, expression softening almost immediately despite the violent beating of his heart.
Yeah. He was completely done for.

synopsis:
While Bucky Barnes is on the run, Steve entrusts you to look after his old friend while the rest of the team tries to resolve the conflict with Tony Stark peacefully. As if babysitting a grumpy ex-Hydra soldier wasn't hard enough, an airborne toxin gets releasedâone designed to weaken a super soldier's resolve with the intention to trap them... and an unexpected side effect that skyrockets their libido.
Between the constant bickering and fighting for your life, you have to keep reminding yourself, "I refuse to be Bucky's first."
â previous fic | main masterlist | next fic â
There were a few things you could respect Steve Rogers for.
He always seemed to know what was best for the team, he had a good head on his shoulders, and he always tried to find a way to resolve conflict with the least amount of bloodshed possible. He was a respectable manârespectable enough for people like you to follow him into hell.
But there were also plenty of things you disliked about him.
Namely, once he had a plan, he stuck to it whether the people around him agreed or not. Unfortunately for you, his current plan involved you babysitting the worldâs most wanted Hydra assassin.
And that was the Winter Soldier.
âWhat!â you barked in disbelief, throwing your hands in the air. âNo! I am not watching him. Iâm coming with youââ
Steve was already gearing upâwearing the suit he stole from the Smithsonian and strapping on his shield last.
âNo,â he replied, sharp and firm. âTrust me, itâs better if you stay put. If I show up with Buck by my side, itâs not gonna look good.â
Steve motioned towards Bucky, who just stood there looking about as useful and clueless as a bag of bricks.
The kicked puppy look on his face almost made you feel bad for him. Almost. Because if it werenât for him, and your own stubborn loyalty to Steve, nobody would be in this mess in the first place.
âLook, youâre going to talk to Stark, right? Natâs with him. Let me come. I can talk to her while you work things out with Stark, and maybe we can figure out a better solutionââ
âWe shouldnât even consider talking to Nat. Sheâs in deep with Tony and the Accords. And besides, I donât trustââ Steve cut himself off, his lips pressing into a thin line as his eyes flickered between you and Bucky. âNever mind.â
You crossed your arms and narrowed your eyes. âDonât trust what?â
The tension in the parking garage turned uncomfortable really fast.
No one dared speak or moveâit felt like a bunch of kids walking in on Mom and Dad arguing and refusing to pick sides. Even though you already knew what he was going to say, you kept your eyes fixed on Steve with a silent threat for him to continue.
Steve sighed and stepped forward, mentally cursing himself for letting the words slip.
âYou Widowsâtheyâre known to be deceptive,â Steve explained as calmly and gently as he could, though it didnât help.
âI just⌠canât risk you talking to Natasha. Itâs too dangerous.â
Offended wasnât even the right word for it.
Everyone in this line of workâincluding you, especially you â knew about the Black Widows and their reputation. You were a group of young girls broken down and rebuilt into perfect chameleons. Widows were trained to whisper sweet nothings into a victimâs ear, only to hold a blade to their throat, slit it without remorse, and go about the rest of their day as if nothing had happened.
Steve wasnât wrong, but the hypocrisy of his logic made you feel sour.
He didnât trust your background, yet in the very same breath, he was willing to leave you entirely alone with Buckyâhis best friend, and the only piece of his past he had left. If you were truly so deceptive, so inherently untrustworthy, what was stopping you from turning Bucky over to Stark the second Steve cleared this garage?
You wanted to cry. You had been loyal to Steve, standing by his side while the rest of the team split up and tore at each otherâs throatsâand this was how he repaid you? By humiliating you in front of everyone?
But youâd die before you let a single tear fall in front of Steve, or anyone else for that matter.
Swallowing the lump in your throat, you tightened your jaw until your teeth hurt and forced your gaze away.
âFine.â
You were going to protect his precious best friendânot out of submission, but to shove his own prejudice right back down his throat. You would prove to him, definitively, that you could be trusted.
âIâll watch over him,â you added, trying to keep cool. âIâll keep my comms open, tooâjust in case you want to pop in and check if heâs still alive.â
Steve returned your sarcasm with a relieved exhale. âThank youââ
âDonât mention it,â you cut him off, waving a hand dismissively as you walked past Buckyâwho was standing there looking like a child of divorce. You headed for your motorcycle.
âAre you coming, Barnes?â
Before joining you at the bike, Bucky walked over to Steve with a fond look in his eyes. They shared the same brotherly hug they'd been exchanging since they reunited. Steve mumbled something into his shoulderâprobably reassurance that everything was going to be okayâbefore finally sending him off to you.
You rolled your eyes, slipping your helmet on to block them out.
As everyone else cleared out of the garage, Bucky walked over to your bike. You handed him a helmet, and he started strapping it on.
âShould I drive?â He asked.
You blinked at him, your face going blank despite him not being able to see it.
âIâm sorry?â
âIâve been hiding in Bucharest for a while,â Bucky explained. âI know some discreet spots where they wonât find us.â
Even though neither of you could see the otherâs expression, you couldnât shake the feeling that Bucky was testing your competenceâand on top of everything that had led to this moment, especially that little conversation with Steve, your patience was wearing dangerously thin.
âBarnes, I assure you that whatever spot youâre thinking of, a SWAT team is already sweeping it.â You revved the engine. âGet on.â
Bucky muffled a deep sigh inside his helmet. Based on his stiff posture, you thought he might argue, but he finally conceded, swinging his long leg over the back of the seat.
As you gripped the handlebars, you waited for him to hold on, but nothing happened.
Glancing at your side mirrors, you saw him awkwardly plant his hands at the edge of his seat, leaning back as far away from you as the space would allow.
âIâm gonna need you to hold on,â you ordered without looking back.
Bucky hesitated, not moving an inch.
Annoyed, you killed the revving engine for a second and glared at him over your shoulder. âDo you want to fall off?â
Bucky still didnât budge. He kept his posture uncomfortably stiff, his eyes boring down at the empty space between his hips and the arch of your back.
âIâll be fine right here.â
You couldnât believe the gall of this guy. You had been tasked with something that was supposed to be so simpleâtedious, sure, but easy enoughâyet he was making your job twice as difficult. You glared at him through your visor, your voice strict even through the muffle of your headgear.
âSteve entrusted me to look after you. If he finds out on the evening news that his most wanted best friend fell off the back of my motorcycle and got captured by the government, then heâs never going to talk to me again. And everyone who is risking their lives for you did it all for nothing because you chose to be stubborn. Now, I am not going to repeat myself. Hold. On. To. Me.â
You couldnât make out his expression, but slowly and reluctantly, he leaned forward and wrapped his thick arms around your waist.
âTighter,â you commanded.
From the short time Bucky had known you, he already knew there was no point in arguing.
He let out a sigh into his helmet and wrapped his arms around you just a little tighter than beforeâbut still kept his hold loose and, well⌠as respectful as he could manage.
âBucky, I need you to hold me tighter,â you urged again.
It had already been a good five minutes since everyone leftâand here you were, stuck with the man who, if caught, could risk your life and your position, all because he refused to hold onto you properly.
To you, this was nothing but a nuisance.
But for BuckyâŚ
Bucky was holding onto every thread and reminder left from the forties of what it meant to be a respectful man. Especially since it had been so long since heâd not only been this close to a woman, but held one.
âTighter!â you shrieked, patience finally snapping.
âFuck, you know what? Fine!â he snapped back, adjusting his hips so that his chest was pressed up right against your back, wrapping his strong arms around you tightly enough to make you gasp.
âIs that tight enough for you?â
âPerfect,â you croaked sarcastically.
Without giving him another second to respond, you kicked the bike into gear and finally steered it out of the garage.
You were determined to keep your pride intact. His broad chest was pressed up against your back, trapping your body heat until your leather jacket felt burning hot against your skin. His metal arm was a hard band across your midsection, while his flesh arm gripped you still.
You were so small compared to him. He could easily take overâyet here he was, being your obedient puppy.
âWhere are you taking me?â Bucky shouted over the rush of wind as the two of you whipped through the busy streets of Bucharest.
âTo an amusement park,â you shouted back. âDonât you want to ride a roller coaster?â
Bucky let out a tired sigh.
You managed to find sanctuary at an abandoned, overgrown rooftop greenhouse. Located on the very outskirts of Bucharest, it was far enough from the city center to avoid suspicion, but still close enough to keep your comms within range of Steve.
You paced the rooftop, feeling restless as your mind overworked with what Steve and the rest of the team could be doing right now.
Were they already fighting? Would Stark actually listen to reason and put all of this to rest?
Letting out a defeated sigh, you kicked a stray pebble, watching it skid across the concrete of the rooftop.
âThis is ridiculous,â you mumbled to yourself. âStuck on babysitting duty when I should be out there.â
Lifting your head, your eyes locked onto Bucky. He was standing dangerously close to the edge of the roof, peering down at the distant streets below.
âHey!â you barked, pointing a finger at him like a mother scolding a child. âStep away from the edge! Youâre going to fall.â
âIâm just keeping a lookout,â Bucky mumbled, his back still facing you as he refused to step away from the edge.
âYouâre just making my job harder than it already is,â you argued, throwing your hands up in exasperation.
You pointed aggressively to the dusty wooden crate tucked against the brick wall.
âJust go sit over there or something.â
Buckyâs brow twitched the same time his patience snapped. He turned around to finally face you, his jaw clenched so tight his molars were crying for help.
âWould you stop talking to me like Iâm a child?â he snapped, stepping away from the edgeânot because you had ordered him to, but to match your hostile stance as he stalked toward you. âIâm sorry you got stuck with the shitty job of watching over me, but I can handle myself just fine, thanks.â
His defensive outburst made you raise a brow.
âOh, really? You can handle yourself just fine?â you crossed your arms and scoffed. âIs that why the entire global government is hunting you down right now? Is that why Steve had to throw away his entire reputation just to keep you out of a cage? Because youâve got it all handled?â
Buckyâs chest heaved, his fingers curling into tight fists at his sides.
The mention of Steveâs sacrifice definitely hit a nerve, you could see the guilt in his eyes.
A part of you wished you hadnât said it at all, and you were just about ready swallow your pride and apologize, untilâŚ
âYouâre from the Red Room,â he said, stepping closer. An involuntary shudder went down your spine. âYouâve done terrible things in the pastâjust as I have. You know exactly what itâs like to have someone like Steve bend over backwards for lowlifes like us.â
You didnât realize just how close he was standing until his hot breath hit your face, only shortening your temper.
âWe donât ask for the help, yet they do it for us anyway,â Buckyâs voice graveled into a whisper. âDonât talk down to me like you donât know what itâs like. When in fact, youâre worseââ
You were already seeing red before he could even finish his sentence.
You quickly unsheathed a pocket knife from your belt and lunged at him, aiming straight for his throat just as a threat to silence him.
âYou donât know a damn thing about me!â
But Bucky was faster.
He brought his metal forearm up just in time to block the blade, making an ugly scraping sound. He twisted his wrist to disarm you, but your grip on the knife was tight. While one arm was held captive by his, you used your other to try and deliver a punchâwhich he also dodged.
You resorted to your legs, bucking them up to deliver hard kicks to his stomach. He grunted after each hit your leg managed to put out, but his hands moved quickly to grab the collar of your jacket and hurl you backwards to the nearest wall.
You cried out, face scrunching into a wince as your back slammed into hard brick.
The impact made you drop your knife. Bucky pressed his heavy body right against yours, aggressively tucking his legs between your thighs so you couldnât use the space to swing your knees at him again.
âI canât believe this is who Steve decided to trust me with,â he hissed in your face.
âGet off of me!â you yelled, squirming beneath his body.
âYou drew your knife at me,â Bucky roared back. âMaybe Steve was right. All you Widows have a tendency to break your vows whenever things go even remotely south for youââ
You werenât going to sit there and take his insults. Gritting your teeth with a brace, you pulled your head back and slammed your forehead directly into his face.
Bucky groaned out in pain, his grip on you loosening as he stumbled back with a hand to his face. Seizing the small window of opportunity, you shoved his chest away and dove towards the floor, reaching for the dropped pocket knife.
Before your fingers could even brush the hilt, his large hands grabbed you from behind and slammed you right back into the brick wall again.
You let out a breathless gasp as your face was forcefully squished up against the brick.
Buckyâs flesh hand came to the back of your head, pushing your skull firmly against the wall to keep your vision pinned away from him. At the same time, his metal hand gathered both your wrists behind your back, locking your two arms prone.
âLet go of me!â
You started to violently squirm and writhe, trying to buck your back against himâto tire him out, but Bucky moved his entire lower body to seal the space. His hips pressed tightly up against your bottom, his chest to your back, pinning you completely helpless as you were left trapped between him and the wall.
âNo. I donât care if youâre Steveâs friend, or if Steve respects you,â Bucky hissed, his breath right at your ear. âIf I find my life in dangerâafter finally being free from Hydra, Iâll kill anyone who gets in my way. Even you.â
Buckyâs chest was heaving against your back.
He was angry.
He hated how much a woman like you could get under his skin with just a few sarcastic words and petty jabs.
One moment he was flustered just holding onto your waist during the bike ride, and now, he had you pinned up against the wall, your life completely in his hands.
You grit your teeth. âDammit, Barnesââ
ââdo you hear me? Hello? Anyone copy?â
You and Bucky froze. His eyes went wide as he leaned his head down toward the earpiece tucked just behind your earlobe where Steveâs voice was emitting. You glared at Bucky through the corner of your eye.
âSteveâs calling for me. I canât answer it unless you let me go.â
âStatus check. Code Blue-Alpha. Repeat, Code Blue-Alpha. Do you copy?â
Bucky was hesitant.
He didnât want to let you goâafraid that you might actually threaten his life again the second he backed off.
Instead of releasing you, his metal hand kept the tight grip on both your wrists, while his flesh hand finally let your head free. Shifting his body closer, his finger reached around to press the button on your earpiece, activating the channel and allowing you to speak.
âSteve,â you breathed, catching your breath. âIâm here.â
âThere you are!â Steve let out a relieved, staticky sigh through the comms. âHow are things over there? Are you two alright?â
You and Bucky side eyed each other.
The situation was ridiculousâthe two of you were still tangled in each otherâs limbs, bodies pressed tight against one another, chests heaving in sync as the adrenaline from the fight slowly began to die down.
âWeâre fine,â you lied. âYour boyfriendâs still alive.â
Bucky huffed a disbelieving laugh right against your ear. He didnât say it out loud, but you could already hear his thoughts. This fucking woman.
Steve wasnât laughing, however. His voice was serious.
âListen to me carefully. We just got word that there are traps set up around the highest points of Bucharest. Theyâre wired to release an airborne toxinâspecifically meant to target the biology of a super soldier.â
You watched Buckyâs eyes. His brows furrowed, concentrating on Steveâs voice as his grip on your wrists loosened slightly.
âTheyâre trying to smoke him out,â you reasoned. âWhat about the regular civilians? Will it affect them?â
âNo. Just us. Iâm already wearing a rebreather mask on my end,â Steve continued with a rasp. It sounded like he was running from something. âBut Bucky doesnât have one. You need to keep him inside and be extremely careful.â
There was a cold knot forming in the pit of your stomach.
Steve was thinking about Bucky, and Bucky was thinking about himself, but neither of them knew your full medical historyâhow could they?
During your time in the Red Room, they had pumped your veins full of a biochemical serum. It wasnât the exact super soldier formula that created Captain America, but it was a heavily modified variation meant to enhance your physical abilities, speed up your healing, and maximize your strength.
It was what made you into a Widow. And right now, you had no idea if that same chemical footprint was enough to trigger the airborne toxin.
âSteve,â you swallowed hard, your voice shaking with worry. âHow is Natasha doing? Is she with you?â
If Natasha was fine, then maybe you would be, too.
Behind you, Bucky must have sensed the sudden spike of panic in your posture. He took a step back and finally released his tight grip on your wristsârelinquishing his hold over your body.
He inhaled a deep breath to steady himself, but stopped midway, choking as if something had gotten stuck in his lungs. His chest hitched. He sniffed the air again, letting out a harsh, hacking cough in return.
âFuckââ Bucky choked out, his hand flying to his throat.
You spun around, catching the way Bucky stumbled blindly against a wooden crate. Your heart started to race in a panic.
âSteve?â you called into the earpiece, your eyes scanning the rooftop for any signs of the trap he had just mentioned over comms. âSteve, do you copy?â
There was no answer.
The static on the other end had cut out completely. Steve had already ended the line to focus on his own escapeâeither that, or his comms had been jammed. You tapped the button behind your earlobe again desperately, but there was nothing.
âSteve! Respond!â
Bucky called your name from where he held himself against the crateâa sound that was broken, small, and almost whiny.
âBucky!â you cried out, abandoning the comm line completely and focusing entirely on the man you were tasked to protect. âAre you okay?â
âHot,â he winced, letting out a deep groan. âIt feels... hot.â
You knelt by his side, the palm of your hand flying to his forehead to check his temperature. Your eyes widened at how warm he had suddenly become. He wasnât nearly this hot when he had you pressed up against the wall just mere seconds ago.
âFuck. Did the toxins get to you already? But how! Weâre on the outskirtsââ
Bucky lazily raised a finger just past your head. You whipped your head around, squinting past the sunlight that pierced the clouds.
There, you saw a hazy, almost pollen like fog beginning to drift from across the rooftop building far from you.
âShit,â you cursed, wrapping your arm around his waist and positioning his heavy arm over your shoulders to help him up.
âCome on, weâve gotta hide you somewhere. Youâre too weak to run if you get caught.â
You tried lifting him up, but he was too heavy to carry just on your own. You groaned beneath him, using every bit of your strength to try and keep him steady.
While you struggled, Buckyâs breathing grew heavier. His eyes were half lidded and unfocusedâhe could barely keep them open.
âStay with me, Bucky,â you murmured against him with a grunt, dragging your feet to get him inside the greenhouse.
It was a glass enclosure, but the walls were muddied with dirt and the plants were overgrown enough to provide decent cover. It wasnât as indoors as youâd like, but it was the closest place you could take him with your current strength.
Buckyâs eyes fluttered down to you, letting out a heavy sigh.
âI think⌠I need to sit.â
Suddenly, he felt like he was suffocating in his own clothes. The breeze in Bucharest was cool, but his body felt like it was burning up from the inside. What was even worse was your touchâhaving your body pressed up against his made him react in ways he never thought he would.
Or at least, not anytime soon.
You stumbled over an overgrown branch, losing your balance and your grip on Bucky.
âShitâIâm sorry,â you mumbled.
Bucky lay on the ground, adjusting his body so that he was flat on his back. His heart was beating rapidly in his chest, the organ trying to tear its way out. His vision and mind went hazy, and his flesh hand was clammy.
The tension was even worse whenever he looked at you. His pupils would dilate the second his eyes landed on your body, his breath getting stuck in his throat.
You knelt down, trying to get your hands under his arms to haul him back up, but Bucky flinched away with a sharp hiss.
âNo,â he rasped. âDonât⌠donât touch me.â
You furrowed your brows. You had no idea what kind of side effects the airborne toxins had been releasedâSteve hadnât specified. But right now, you couldnât afford to stand around and ponder it. You groaned, trying to lift him up one more time, but your body suddenly felt even weaker than before.
Your knees buckled as a strange aroma began to drift into your nose. It was a musky, almost tangy smell filling the deep pockets of your lungs.
âW-what the hellâŚ?â
Buckyâs chest rose and fell heavily from where he lay on the floor, his dark, half lidded eyes meeting yours. âDo you feel it, too?â
Meeting Buckyâs eyes in this state was the worst thing you could have possibly done.
Suddenly, the greenhouse felt smallerâa glass enclosure closing in on the two of you. Your body felt molten, and you wanted nothing more than to strip your clothes off.
Grunting, you began to pull down the zipper of your jacket, and Bucky inhaled sharply.
âHeyâwhat⌠what are you doing?â
âItâs hot,â you breathed, your head spinning. âNeed to take my jacket off.â
The heat inside your own skin was hurting, but for Bucky, it was absolute torture.
The super soldier serum in his veins processed the toxin at an accelerated rate, making his flesh feel like it was working overtime. His blood was rushingâhot and heavyâpooling lower until he was completely and unapologetically hard under his pants.
He wanted to rip his own clothes off. He just hoped you wouldnât notice the tent poking between his legsâor maybe a dark part of him did, and he wanted you to offer to take care of it.
Fuck. What was he thinking?
But it wasnât like you were thinking straight, either. Abandoning your jacket, you were left in just a tank top that clung tightly to your chest, offering Bucky a full view of your tits. You knelt right back down beside him, your hands clumsily reaching for his shoulders to lift him up again.
This was going bad for Bucky.
Too close.
Too close. Too close. Too close.
Bucky caught your scentâa natural floral and feminine smell mixed with an underlying musk of sweat that made his head spin with an overwhelmingly dangerous amount of desire.
âStop,â Bucky choked out, his voice dropping deep and dangerous.
His right hand shot out, wrapping tightly around your bare wrist, while his metal hand gripped your hip to keep you from leaning any closer.
âDonât... donât do this. Get away from me right now.â
âBucky,â you panted. âI need you to get up for me.â
âI canât,â he groaned, letting his head fall back against the floor. âI mean it. Move away⌠or I swear to God, I wonât be able to control myselfââ
Your gaze drifted down his body, your eyes widening at the prominent bulge waiting for you between his large, strong legs.
It throbbed and twitched beneath his pants, growing harder and more unbearable by the second.
This position was too compromisingâtoo vulnerable, and far too dangerous for you both.
Bucky had no strength to get up on his own, and you could feel your own body betraying you by the second. You would have to relieve this for him now, or it would be doom for you both.
âGoddammit,â you cursed, bracing yourself mentally.
You moved to cradle Bucky between your thighs, mounting his lap while he was pinned weak to the floor.
His eyelids flew open, and he used all the strength left in his body to lift his head and stare up at you, bewildered and off guard.
âWhat the hell are you doingâ!â
âWe need to take care of this,â you muttered, grinding your hips tight and firm against his, making him let out a groan.
âWe need to fix your problem before they find us. They set up that trap not too far from this building. Thereâs a chance theyâre already scouting it out. Itâs only a matter of timeââ
Buckyâs eyes were filled with hungry lust as he stared at the point where your hips were rubbing against his. He was so hard it fucking hurt. He didnât dare touch youâbecause if his hands made contact with your waist, with that warm, smooth skin just beneath your tank top that was begging to be licked, he would probably embarrass himself and cum in his pants right then and there.
âShitâwait. Hold on. Iâfuck.â
You reached for his zipper, tugging it down, and the sudden movement made his hips buck up against yours.
âNowâs not the time to talk, Barnes,â you panted, the toxin blurring your thoughts. âWe need to take care of this now, or weâll be in deep trouble. And Steveâll have my headââ
âFuck, shit. Waitâ! Iâve neverâŚâ
You were losing your patience. You stopped your hands, glaring down at him. âNever what, Barnes?â
His face burned an embarrassing shade of red. He refused to look at you, his eyes suddenly far more interested in the overgrown plants next to him than your face.
âIâve never had⌠sex,â he admitted quietly, swallowing hard.
Oh.
Oh.
Bucky was a virgin?
âOh my god,â you whispered.
You felt incredibly foolish straddling him with your hands still hovering over his open zipper.
You felt shamefulâyou felt like a harlot, throwing yourself onto him and thinking you could resolve this entire crisis just by getting him off with a few strokes. You felt dirty, humiliated, and deeply guilty.
âIâm so sorry,â you stammered, quickly scrambling off his lap.
Your legs felt like jellyâa testament to the toxin fully taking hold of your own system.
âShit. Iâm so sorry, Bucky. I didnât know. I mean, that doesnât excuse it, butââ
âNo,â Bucky rasped, his hand catching your wrist before you could back away entirely.
His grip on you was so tight and dominant, it felt like a pickaxe slowly chipping away at your remaining resolve.
âDonât go,â he broke out, his voice a desperate, tortured rasp. âPlease. Keep going. It hurts. I need you to relieve it.â
If he had said that to reassure you, you felt anything but. In fact, you felt even guiltier because of how broken and desperate he sounded.
âBucky, I canât.â
His brows knitted together tightly, his face twisting unpleasantlyâhe was upset.
âWhy the hell not?â
âBecauseââ
âBecause what!â he barked back, rolling onto his side to give you his full attention. You tried really hard not to look at the outline of his hard cock pressing against his pants. âYou threw yourself onto me. You promised Steve youâd take care of meâso youâre going to come back here and finish it.â
âBucky, Iâm not going to be your first!â you yelled out, and that finally stunned him into silence.
Your chest was heaving with a frustration you didnât even know how to name.
With confusion and a flash of embarrassment taking over his gaze, his fingers finally loosened, releasing your wrist reluctantly.
âIâm sorry,â you said, much softer this time. âIâm sorry. Just⌠if you need a minute to take care of it yourself, Iâll be over thereââ you pointed to the far end of the greenhouse ââIâll keep watch.â
âAnd what about you?â he asked, his dark eyes trailing down your body in a way that did absolutely nothing to help your situation. âDonât you need to take care of yourself, too? You feel it, donât you? That⌠primal need.â
You pressed your lips tight and tore your gaze away, not trusting yourself to look at his pained, desperate expression. You couldnât look at the way his body was open and inviting you back in, or the way his voice went so coarse when he said the word need.
âIâll be fine.â
You were not fine. And Bucky certainly wasnât, either.
You tried to keep your concentration focused outside the greenhouse, forcing your hazy eyes to stare through the glass panes to keep watch. But your gaze kept betraying you, drifting right back to the corner to watch Bucky where he sat propped up against a wooden crate, his legs spread wide.
His chest was still rising and falling heavily, his long hair damp with sweat and falling over his darkened eyes.
You had told him to take care of his business, but he hadnât made a single move since you stepped away from him. Your own urges were becoming impossible to control, too. You found yourself squeezing your thighs tightly together, trying to find any form of friction, any relief from the ache that had been building up ever since the toxin first wafted into your lungs.
It didnât help that you could feel Buckyâs eyes on you, watching you from behind, tracing your silhouette.
It felt telepathicâas if his silent gaze was speaking directly to your body, knowing you wanted exactly what he was desperately craving too.
No. You couldnât go to him.
If you walked up to him right now, neither of you would have any control left, and you would both submit to the drug completely.
He was a virgin. You couldnât take something so precious from him. He had already been through a lifetime of torture and lost autonomy. You wouldnât be able to live with yourself if you took his first time over a stupid, weaponized toxin.
Sex was meant to be reserved for someone specialâand you were far from it.
âBucky,â you finally called out, still refusing to turn around and look at him. âAre you okay back there?â
ââŚNo,â he muttered with a thick rasp. âCome here.â
You sucked in a breath.
Every instinct in your brain was telling you stay exactly where you were, but your body was entirely out of your control now.
Your feet dragged you across the dirty floor until you were standing over him again.
You dropped to your knees in front of him with a sigh. Trying to frame it as purely medical check, you lifted a hand and pressed your palm flat against his forehead to check his temperature once more.
He was still burning up, but the fever felt even worse.
Every hot breath he exhaled hit your exposed collarbones, and the way he was sittingâlegs spread wide with you kneeling directly between themâmade you feel like a mouse being lured into a trap.
Realizing just how dangerous this proximity was, you swallowed hard and began to pull your hand away. But Bucky didnât let you. His fingers wrapped tightly around your wrist to hold you back. He let his heavy eyelids flutter shut and slowly leaned his head into your touch, rubbing his stubbled cheek right against your warm, open palm.
âStay,â Bucky pleaded as he his metal hand came to hold your hip. âStay here. I need you.â
A breathless groan rumbled warmly into your palm. You froze, your eyes locked onto him as you watched the lethal super soldierâthe very man who had pinned you up against the wall just minutes agoâunravel helplessly right in front of you.
As he held you there, you felt an unbearable heat trickle between your legs.
Your cunt pulsed, and you squeezed your thighs tightly together to soothe the desperate ache spreading through your lower body.
The friction was a temporary fix, but the tight grind of your thighs only made you ache for more.
Bucky nuzzled his face deeper into your palm, inhaling your scent like a dying man catching a breath of fresh air.
Then, his parted lips pressed a soft, wet kiss against the center of your hand. And another one. Then another, right against the inner skin of your wrist.
âBucky⌠what are youââ
âPlease,â Bucky whispered against your skin, looking up at you through his dark, thick lashes.
His eyes were dilated, the blue completely washed out by a lust that made you burn from the inside out.
âI need you.â
âYou⌠You donât know what youâre saying,â you muttered, shaking your head in a desperate attempt to find your reason.
Bucky held your hand tighter, refusing to give you any chance to escape.
âPlease, donât go. FuckâI need you so bad, it hurts,â he choked out. âThis ache wonât go away until you help me take care of it.â
His eyes never left yours. Under normal circumstances, every confession leaving his lips should have left him feeling deeply ashamed or embarrassed. But right now, he didnât care. His body was on fire, and your touch was only stroking each and every flame.
âI know Iâm a virgin, but I donât careâand you shouldnât, either,â Bucky rasped.
His large hand covered yours, forcing your palm down his chestâslick and damp with sweatâuntil he guided your hand directly over the heavy erection waiting for you beneath his pants.
âI can make you feel so good. I can fix this for both of us. Please.â He begged.
You let out a shudder as his large hand swallowed yours, guiding your palm to slide up and down against the length of his cock. Even through the denim, you could feel him throb and harden rapidly beneath your touch, his breathing turning incredibly shallow and fast.
âIt hurts so bad,â he groaned, his eyes unhinged by the toxin. âDoesnât it hurt you, too?â
You looked down, biting your lip hard at the sight of Buckyâs thick bulge pressing directly against your fingers. He twitched beneath your touch.
There was nothing you wanted more than to finish the job you had started earlierâto finish unzipping his pants, sink right down onto him, and show him exactly what it felt like to be inside a woman for the very first time.
But you couldnât.
Not like this.
âBucky, I canâtââ you whispered so softly, it sounded like a whine. âI canât be your first.â
Bucky trembled a sigh, his head falling back against the wooden crate. But he didnât let go of your wrist. He began to subtly shift his weight, rocking his hips up in a tilt that forced his thick length to slide right against your captive palm.
âWhy not?â he murmured, deep and gravelly. âYou donât think⌠you donât think Iâd do a good job?â
His question was so innocent, though the very thing he was doing wasnât. He kept grinding his clothed cock into your handâseeking pleasure from just your palmâand you felt yourself going insane.
âNo, itâs not that,â you tried to pull your hand back, but he held you tight, using your trapped hand for his own pleasure. âSex is supposed to be something that you save. And your virginity is something you give away to someone special. Not⌠not a casual teammateânot someone like meââ
Bucky interrupted you with a groan, his hips bucking up higher against your palm. All of your words went in one ear and out the other. The only thing he could process right now was how good your hand feltâand how much better it would feel if he sunk into something tight, wet, and warm.
Like your mouth⌠or yourâŚ
âI donât care about any of that,â he choked out.
His hips rolled into your palm with a needy jerk.
âI need this. I need you. Iâd be more than happy to give it to you. FuckâIâll give it to you so good. Youâre the one I want. I need youââ
Buckyâs mouth dropped into an o shape, a sharp hiss of breath filling his lungs as his hips bucked uncontrollably. His eyes never left yours as he suddenly started spilling in his pants. A warm, thick liquid began to seep through his jeans, leaving your fingers sticky with his seed and musk.
You couldnât believe it.
Bucky had just finished right in his pants.
âBuckyâŚâ
His face was unreadable.
His head was tilted back against the crate, his eyes boring into yours through heavy lids and long lashes. He was breathing heavily, trying to catch his breath while letting his cum shamelessly pool in the tight space of his pants.
You figured heâd pull your hand away any second nowâthat finally releasing all that pent up frustration would make him feel well enough to move to a safer location.
You tried not to point it out to save him from the embarrassment. And most importantly, you tried not to give in to the intense sensation of his warm spunk right beneath your fingertips.
âYou should be feeling better now, right? We should keep movingââ
With his grip on your wrist tightening, he hauled you forward until you collapsed back to the ground. Two strong arms wrapped completely around your body, caging you flush against his chest.
Your kneesâalready so weakâforced you to straddle his lap. Your hands flew to his broad shoulders for balance as you found yourself perched directly over his ruined pants.
âHeyâwhat are youâ!â
Bucky nuzzled his face straight into the crook of your neck, his hot, erratic breaths turning into open mouthed kisses against your skin.
âMore,â he begged, the deep vibration of his voice tickling you. âSânot enough. I need more.â
Your breath hitched when his hands started to roam over your body. His fingers tickled beneath the hem of your tank top, the metal fingers cooling your skin and making you gasp out loud from the sudden cold.
No.
I wonât let this happen.
I refuse to be Buckyâs first.
But despite your emotional turmoil, you couldnât bring yourself to pull away. Not with the way his hands were roaming around your body, claiming every inch of you as his through touch alone. Not with the way he was looking at you, his mouth parted with desperation.
And especially not when he had just let himself spill in his jeans from nothing but your touch and closeness.
âI know you feel it too,â Bucky rasped against your neck. âI know youâre wet down there, begging to be touched. Begging to be filled. I can fix you, baby. Just let me take care of you, please.â
He pulled back slightly, looking up at you with wide puppy blue eyes that made your heart ache and your pussy clench.
âCan I kiss you?â
You searched his gaze, breathless. âYou want to kiss me?â
His metal hand left your waist, slowly crawling up your spine until his fingers tangled firmly in the hair at the back of your head, keeping your eyes pinned to his. His pupils were completely blown out, his gaze demanding an answer right now.
You should have said no. You should have pushed his chest, reminded him of the drug, and scrambled away to safety.
He was a virgin, sure. But with the way he was looking at you while holding you tightâyou felt like you were going to be ravaged.
But your resolve was already a fragile thing. And with the way he was looking at you, you knew you were in too deep. Your body was hurtingâaching for him in the exact same ways he was aching for you. The only way you two could fix it was each other.
You pressed your lips hard against his, and Bucky let out a rough, needy sound into your mouth.
His grip tightened in your hair, pulling you deeper into the kiss.
The fever burned through your veins, and the way his tongue danced with yours only made the fire burn hotter. He was tasting you, broken whimpers tearing from his lips with every slick slide of his tongue. Saliva mixed together, leaving you both completely breathless, your lips and limbs tangled.
You rolled your hips back, grinding yourself deeper against Buckyâs pelvis.
His cock twitched inside his jeans, poking hard against you. You didnât know howâbut he felt even bigger and harder than he had before.
âI canât take it anymore,â he panted against your mouth. âFuck, I canâtâI need to feel you. Need to be inside you.â
His hands scrambled down to your waist, his fingers fumbling with the button of your pants. He popped it open with a rough tugâthreatening to break the button itselfâas his knuckles brushed against your hot skin.
Bucky groaned at the sight.
The lace of your panties was poking through the opening, damp with sweat and your scent. He inhaled deeply, and you wondered just how much his heightened senses were actually taking you in.
When he let out a satisfied sigh, you knew he could smell everything.
âLook at you,â he praised, his eyes tracing the curves of your body. âYouâre so beautiful. It makes me want to ruin you.â
You chuckledâa sound that came out raspy and sultry without your intention, making Buckyâs cock twitch beneath you.
âQuite a bold statement for someone whoâs never had sex before,â you teased, your hands trailing slowly down his chest.
Buckyâs jaw tightened. He accepted your challenge, gripping the waistband of your unzipped pants and yanking them down your thighs.
The moment your bare skin was exposed to the cool air, Bucky wasted no time traveling his eyes down the expanse of your legs. Catching his bottom lip between his teeth to keep from drooling like a madman, his gaze raked over the inner and outer curves of your thighs. His mouth went dry at the sight of the little wet spot that had collected near your clit.
His large hands slid up your thighs and behind you, squeezing your ass firmly in his rough palms.
âSo fucking beautiful,â he growled, his thumb swiping over your clit, smearing your own juice all over the lace.
âFuckâyouâve been dripping all this time. You need this just as bad as I do, and youâve been holding back?â
You swallowed hard. âItâs not too late. We donât have toâoh!â
You cried out once his fingers slipped past the hem of your panties. His fingers dipped between your folds, collecting your arousal with embarrassing wet noises as he tried to rub at your clit.
âNo, Bucky⌠itâs right hereââ You grabbed his forearm, guiding him to the right spot, and arched your back with a sharp cry when he started rubbing deep circles against the sensitive bud.
âOh my god,â you gasped.
This was the pleasure you were looking forâbut it wasnât nearly enough.
There was an empty ache deep inside you that was begging to be filled. But you werenât going to demand that of him just yet, in case he changed his mind.
A lazy, boyish smile tugged at his lips as he watched you come undone from his fingers.
âYeah?â he huffed out a breath. âThat feel good, baby?â
âYesâdonât stop, please,â you cried helplessly.
His other hand lifted your tank top up and over your head, quickly unhooking your bra to fully reveal your tits. With a low grunt, he leaned forward, capturing one of your perky nipples into the wet warmth of his mouth.
You moaned loudly, your hand flying to the back of his head and giving his hair a hard, desperate tug. He liked that a lot, moaning against your skin in pleasure.
Buckyâs tongue swirled around your nipple, licking and sucking until you were arching off his lap at his mercy.
He was making a beautiful mess of you, switching between both buds and letting his mouth worship your body. His rough stubble tickled your chest while his fingers continued their clumsy work down below, sliding through your slick folds and rubbing messy circles right against your clit.
The wet, squelching sounds of his fingers moving against your soaking flesh filled the greenhouseâthe filth of it only making you wetter and causing the toxin to course even harder.
He suddenly pulled his mouth away from your chest, a string of saliva connecting his lips to your skin, and finally looked up at you.
His lips and chin were slick and shining from giving your breasts such sloppy, adoring kisses.
âI need to be inside you,â he pleaded. âPlease⌠I need to put it in. I need to stuff you so full of me, baby. Please, let me fuck you.â
Your eyes searched Buckyâs.
He looked like an even bigger mess than before. He looked and sounded utterly helpless, his chest rising and falling heavily, his face tight with an expression that made it look like he was physically hurting.
Even though he had just come in his pants moments ago, he needed so much more.
You knew that once you gave in to him completely, there would be no holding back for either of you. He would have to live with the fact that you would be his first.
âI know what youâre thinking,â Bucky slowly slipped his hand out of your panties, bringing his fingers up to his lips and licking the juices clean. âYouâre scared, but Iâm not. I know what I want, and what I want right now is you.â
Bucky gripped your waist, raising you off his lap and pinning you flat against the ground.
He slipped his large body directly between your legs, his strong thighs forcing yours wide open as he covered your frame with his.
Your hair was messy across the dirt floor, framing your face as you laid beneath him breathless. The toxin was taking over control of your bodyâevery single nerve demanding to be touched by the man between your legs.
You felt like you were in heat, consumed by a fever that only Bucky could cure.
His eyes fell over your body, tracing your tits and stomach, his gaze locking onto the way your pantiesâalready a soaked messâlooked like they were begging to be torn away by his teeth.
âIâm sorry,â he murmured, his hands making quick work of your underwear.
With a harsh tug and a sharp tearing sound, the fabric gave away.
âIâm so sorry for what Iâm about to do to you.â
Your panties didnât even make it past your knees before tearing clean off your thighs. You winced slightly.
It was dizzying to think about how you had found the strength to fight Bucky earlier, only to now be reduced to a breathless, aching mess over a piece of torn fabric.
Bucky leaned back on his heels, unbuckling his belt and shoving open his unzipped, stained denim jeans.
The moment he pulled his cock free, it sprang forward then backâthe tip slapping against his abdomen.
He was thick, his cock fully engorged and begging to be wrapped in something tight and warm. Pre-cum glistened at the tip, trailing down his shaft and mixing with the creamy white essence from his earlier release.
His eyes were glued to your soaking center, legs spread wide and inviting. His jaw slacked as he lazily pumped himself at the shaft, prepping his cock for your warm embrace.
He claimed he was a virgin, but the way he was looking at you with such a hungry look in his eyes made you think otherwise.
âBucky,â you breathed, heart racing. âAre you sure you want to do this? With⌠me?â
Bucky leaned over your body, using his metal elbow to prop himself up while he slapped the tip of his cock against your entrance.
You werenât sure where he learned that from, but the dirty act left you clenching around nothing.
âThe more you ask, the harder it is for me to stay in control,â he gritted through clenched teeth. âIâm just gonna have to stuff you full of my cock just to prove how much I want you.â
You craned your neck, watching Bucky rub his tip up and down your foldsâsmearing his pre-cum while coating his shaft in your own slick juice.
When he positioned himself right at your opening and poked gently, testing your stretch, your folds immediately parted for him. You were so wet and pliable from the toxin that you were sure he would slip right in without a fight, despite how big he was.
âJust⌠just enough to get rid of the side effects, okay?â you muttered, though it sounded like you were trying to convince yourself more than him.
Bucky either didnât hear you, or maybe he did and he just chose to ignore it.
With a clench of his jaw, he slowly pushed his hips forward, his eyes glued to the spot where your cunt wrapped around the head of his cock.
The sensation was delicious. Your body was burning hot, tight, and dangerously wet. He had only sunk the tip in, but it was already the greatest thing he had ever felt in his life. His eyes rolled back as a deep groan tore in his chest.
âOhhhâŚâ
Despite the toxin making your body more accommodating, you were still tighter than either of you expected.
You were being stretched completely and fully as Bucky kept going, relentlessly sinking his cock all the way inside until his dark, hairy base pressed flush against your folds. He was so big, and a part of you was grateful that he had already come once before thisâbecause right now, his entire body was shaking with an uncontrollable need.
âSo goddamn tight,â he cursed, his face twisting that looked almost like pain. âI never⌠fuck, I never expected pussy to feel this good⌠Christ.â
He stilled inside you, letting your body adjust to his size. But in reality, he was the one who needed time to adjust to your tightness.
You paced your breathing. Being stretched full by him made you want to scream at him to hurry up and move, to fuck you right into the dirt floor of the greenhouseâbut you couldnât make that kind of demand of a virgin.
Since it was his first time, despite the unfortunate circumstances, you were going to guide him gently.
âHold me here,â you murmured, taking his hands and guiding them back to your thighs. âFeel me. Itâs soft, isnât it?â
Bucky breathed hard, nodding as he held you.
âWhen youâre ready, just move your hips nice and slow. Take your time.â
His face fell into a tight scowl, as if displeased with that order.
Every single one of his base instincts was screaming at him to fuck you hard and fastâto claim every surface of your pussy with his cock.
âFâfine,â he reluctantly agreed, his voice strained. He gripped your thighs tightly, spreading you open as he began rocking his hips back and forth.
His eyes were glossy with desire, transfixed by the sight of his cock disappearing in and out of your body.
A thick, creamy white ring was forming around the base of his shaft, staining the unruly dark curls that sat at his pelvis.
Every time he pulled out, he made sure to sink back in even deeper, rolling his hips forward until the tip of his cock kissed your cervix.
Your eyes rolled back, your hands clutching his broad shoulders as he buried himself inside you.
âFuck⌠just like that,â you moaned. âKeep going.â
âDoes⌠does that feel good?â He swallowed hard, fingers digging deeper into your thigh.
You nodded fast. âSo goodâI donât want you to stop. Please, donât stop.â
Your breathless plea made him scowl , a frustrated snarl leaving his lips.
âThis is torture.â He groaned.
You furrowed your brows, looking at his angry expression in concern. Torture? That wasnât what sex was supposed to feel like. The last thing you wanted to do was hurt him.
âBucky,â you said, pressing your hand against his sweating chest. âIf this is hurting you, we need to stop right now. Pull out of meââ
You gasped as his metal hand circled tight around your wrist, prying it away from his chest and pinning it over your head. He slammed you back to the floor, his large body shadowing yours as his face hovered.
His dark eyes bored deeply into yoursâand you felt like if you so much as looked away, he might take it as a threat.
âNo, I canâtâI canât do slow,â he growled. âThe drug in my veins, itâs like it's yelling at me to take what I want. And what I want is to fuck you until you cry.â
Your breath left your lungs as Bucky slammed his hips forward, burying himself inside you.
He pulled out halfway before fucking right back in, a broken gasp leaving your lips as you arched your back against the floor from the pleasure. You hadnât expected him to fuck you this hardâbeing a virgin and allâbut you couldnât complain.
You had been craving to be taken like this since the moment the drug first entered your system.
âOh my godâ!â You cried out, tears prickling at the corners of your eyes.
âAhâfuck, youâre so tight,â Bucky cried out.
He buried his face into the crook of your neck, his breath scalding against your skin as he relentlessly pumped his hips in and out of you, using your vulnerable body like his own personal sex toy.
âIt feels too good, fuck, baby. Everything feels too goodâI canât stop,â he moaned.
Your moans blended together into a dirty symphony.
The toxin was amplifying every single touch, his thick shaft stretching you out completelyâturning your usually strong and poised body into mush with every thrust.
Your wet walls clenched down on him every time he threatened to pull out, as if sucking him right back in. Bucky was entirely lost, his mind short circuiting from the pleasure.
Every time he buried himself deep, your swollen pussy tightened around him like your body was trying to milk him dry. You whimpered with every single thrust he gave you, your teary eyes meeting his in a lustful haze as you wrapped your legs tight around his hips for support.
âFuckâmy god, donât do thatââ He sucked in a sharp breath. âYouâre squeezing me so tight. Godâif this is what sex feels like, I never want to stop.â
He tilted his head down, his sweaty strands of hair tickling your hot face as he stared back down at the exact point where his hips got lost with yours.
Every stroke of his cock inside your tight body came with a hot wave of pleasure, amplified by the toxin coursing through your blood.
The sensation was addicting.
Bucky had never felt a pleasure like this before. Heâd jerked off a few times in his apartment just to quickly relieve some stress, but that was always by himself.
He was a curious boy back in the forties, but he had never been close to getting any action like this.
To him, this was like a dream come true.
But he needed to go deeper. These regular, sloppy thrusts werenât enough. He needed to feel more.
With a snarl, he leaned back to grip the backs of your thighs and shoved your knees up towards your chest, folding you into a tight mating press.
Before you could adjust to the new position, he pressed his hips against yours to lock you in place and sank down even deeper than he had before.
Your eyes flew wide, nearly bulging from their sockets as a sharp gasp ripped from your throat. His cock was stretching you at an impossible angle, burying himself so deep you couldâve sworn you saw stars.
Because you were already so sensitive from the toxin, having him bottom out so hard against your cervix made your core shudder uncontrollably, causing your legs to shake. Your head fell back against the floor, your toes curling in the air as your vision went hazy.
âOh my god!â you cried out in a mix of pain and pleasure. âItâs too muchâI canât⌠youâre gonna make me cum!â
You felt your walls start to hyperventilate around his length. You knew he felt it, too, because he immediately doubled his pace.
âIâm sorry,â he apologized, but it didnât sound sincere. âFuckâIâm so sorry. It just feels too goodâfuck, Iââ
His voice broke into a pained moan the moment your pussy tightened. You came hard around him without warning, your neck arching as a loud moan strained your vocal cords.
Buckyâs entire body tensed, his face twisting in a grimace from how your climax was squeezing him.
The feeling was exquisite, and fuck, he wasnât going to last another second when he was buried this deep inside of you.
He knew your body was sensitive and overworked, but he couldnât bring himself to stop moving. His balls had never felt this full, this heavy. He was close, so fucking close, and the more your pussy fluttered around his shaft, the more desperate he became to chase that same release.
âShit. Mâgonna cum,â he cursed, his hips stuttering as he hilted himself deep inside.
His cock twitchedâhe had never came inside a girl before, but he was determined to do so now.
He was going to make sure he filled you, to stuff your tight hole to the brim with his backed up super soldier seed.
âGonna cum inside,â he warned, his metal hand sliding beneath your lower back and lifting your hips up to meet his thrusts. âIâm gonna cum insideâfuck, I hope thatâs okay. Iâm sorry. I canâtâI canât control myself.â
You couldnât muster a single coherent word. Only muffles and teary whimpers escaped you, but it didnât matter what you said while Bucky was in this state. He had no intention of stopping.
His blue eyes were crazed, rolled back so far in his sockets you could see the white. He grit his teeth, meeting your hips with sloppy and wet thrusts. A litany of curses mumbled in broken strings under his breath, until finallyâŚ
âOh my godâIâm cumming. Take it, baby. Take every single drop of me. Donât let it go to waste. Please, I need this. I need this so fucking badââ
With a firm grip on your thigh, he pinned you down and pushed his hips against yours.
His tip kissed your cervix, pulsing twice before his body gave way to your tightness. You were being filled by the thick, heavy pumping of his seed. You could feel his cock twitching relentlessly against your walls, determined to flood every inch of your pussy.
He buried his face in your neck, his chest heaving violently as he stuffed you so completely full that your lower belly felt heavy.
âIâm so sorry,â he pleaded brokenly.
Bucky trembled from head to toe, and despite his mumbled apologies, he kept your hips pinned securely so that not a single drop of his release could escape. He was spent, breathing in shaky and ragged gasps against your skin. He didnât want to pull out yet, still savoring the feeling of your pulsing walls squeezing the very last drops from.
The two of you lay on the floor, tangled and sweaty in each otherâs limbs. Once you finally caught your breath, your hands gently caressed his broad back, a comforting gesture that caught even you off guard.
âHow⌠how are you feeling?â you finally mumbled.
Your body tensed as you braced yourself for an answer.
Now that the side effects of the toxin seemed to be wearing off, dread started trickling in.
You were terrified that everything you had just done with Bucky would be something heâd immediately regret. A part of you tried to tell yourself that you didnât careâthat he had despised you before this, and he would simply go back to hating you again.
But after being his first, there was an undeniable connection in the way you felt beneath him.
If he was already starting to feel regret... well, you werenât sure how you would handle it. Guilt? Probably. The longer he stayed silent, the more the worry gnawed at you.
He eventually huffed a breath, but he didnât pull away.
âIf youâre wondering if Iâm going to regret this,â Bucky began, his voice so raspy and tired that it sent a shiver down your spine. âThe answer is no.â
You sucked in a breath, expecting a but to follow.
Bucky attempted to lift himself up slightly so he wasnât crushing you, but he was still so sensitive that the movement made him wince sharply. He couldnât bring himself to pull out yet, so he collapsed right back against you with a soft huff.
âI wish I could just stay like this,â he muttered, wrapping both arms around you while resting his head against your sweaty chest.
He looked so small and vulnerable in that moment, and it made your heart ache for him.
âJust holding you,â he whispered, hugging you tighter as his voice grew quieter. âInstead of constantly running, fearing for my life, or being taken away. I just want to stay like this. Holding a pretty girl.â
The tension was starting to become too much for you to handle. Your face burned, unsure of how to process the sudden compliment. Trying to break the tension, you huffed a soft laugh and continued to rub your hand up and down his broad back. He seemed to like your touch very much.
âIâm sorry you lost your virginity this way.â you tried to joke.
Bucky chuckled against your chest. âThe man I was in the forties probably wouldâve done a much better job.â
âWell, this wasnât bad at allâIâll tell you that much.â
The two of you lay there, chuckling softly in each otherâs arms, until the loud, sudden static of your earpiece made you both jolt.
âDo you copy? Report in.â
You both froze, your hearts beating rapidly for an entirely different reason now.
Bucky cleared his throat as he reluctantly tried lifting himself up. The friction of his slick and semi-hard cock sliding out of you made you let out an involuntary whimper.
âStatus update,â Steve pressed, his tone anxious. âAre you two safe, or are you compromised?â
Compromised, sure. But definitely not in the way Steve meant.
Suppressing a giggle, you tapped your earpiece with a bright smile, catching Bucky's eye.
âGlad to hear your comms didnât break, Steve.â
A relieved sigh came from the other end. âGive me a status report. How are you two? Howâs Bucky?â
You watched as Bucky began to pull his clothes back on, his face an embarrassing shade of red as he tried to compose himself. You chuckled softly.
âWeâre fine.â

First off, Iâm obsessed with your vibes. I love me some Mitski and Ethel Cain. Iâm also a huge lover of unhinged women in media (I crave more of it). I adored your alt reader and Jack Abbot head cannons. Imagine him letting you dye a matching strip in his hair to whatever color you have at the moment. Everyone at the Pitt would tease him but he wouldnât care. đŤŚ
jack abbot x alt!reader
summary: jack practically begs you to dye his hair so you can match.
wc: 1k words (holy yap)
a/n: firstly tysm twin, may we be blessed with more insane women in film, and thank you for this adorable ask. i quite like this dynamic where jack's sort of the softer, silly one, and reader is the more reserved one (but they still love each other bad). enjoy <33
You're touching up your roots, sitting in front of the bathroom mirror in one of Jack's old shirts, the faded cotton hanging off one shoulder, when he comes home from his shift.
Jack leans against the doorway silently watching you, a soft smile on his face before he asks you if you need help.
You shake your head, âGo rest, baby. Iâm nearly done anyways.â
He comes in anyways, washing his hands and taking the brush from you. Â
You click your tongue, despite the fact that your cheeks are warming. Â
Thereâs a comfortable silence then, as you admire Jack through the mirror, watching his brows knit together and pursed lips as he evenly spreads the cherry red dye all over your scalp. One hand sections your hair while the other paints each section carefully.Â
Once heâs done, he crosses his arms, his lips tugging into a smug smirk.Â
âThink âm getting better than you at this.â
âShut up.â
You turn to snatch the brush from his hands but he lifts it high above his head. You sigh.Â
âWhat?â
âSo I just had this great ideaââ
You groan immediately.Â
âNo.â
âStop, listen to me.â
You roll your eyes but look up expectantly, knowing heâs going to spit some corny dad joke like he always does.
âWhat if⌠we had matching hair?â
What the fuck?
You still, biting your lip to stop you from breaking into laughter.Â
âHear me out, what if weâ fuck, stop laughing!â He whines.Â
Your shoulders shake as you giggle, endeared.
âOkay sorry, Iâm just a bit⌠Confused. But go on.â
He grunts, then gestures vaguely between the two of you.
âI think it'd be kinda sweet. And the colour youâve got on is similar to what my hair used to look like back then.â
âJack, that was auburn. This is a dark red.â
He groans.Â
âItâs the same. And I wasn't thinkin' all of it,â he says, pinching a tiny section of curls near his temple. âJust one little streak.â
You sigh, the corners of your mouth already twitching again despite yourself.
âYou are unbelievable.â
Jack only grins, his eyes crinkling more around the edges, and your chest aches a little.Â
This is the same man who learned all the acupuncture points for your feet after you returned exhausted from work or uni too many nights in a row. The same man who somehow bought you a little silver ring almost every week because âthis one had felt like youâ. The same man who gently rubbed tattoo balm into your skin every time you came home with fresh ink, his rough hands impossibly gentle as he made sure every inch was covered before reminding you, for the hundredth time, not to scratch it.
You knew you were going to fold anyway. Maybe because you could never really say no to him.
Or maybe because, buried somewhere beneath your amused disbelief, there was something quietly possessive that unfurled in your chest at the thought of it. A tiny streak of your colour woven through his silver curls. Something only the two of you would understand. Something that would make him unmistakably yours, something heâd have to declare when people asked him, because they would.
And he knew you well enough to know that - it's why he asked in the first place.
So, after a moment, you simply sigh.
âFine.â
You reach for the brush.
âCome here.â
His grin widens immediately, so soft and boyish that you canât help but smile back. He leans down to softly peck your lips, mumbling a âthank youâ.
âYou are such a dork.â
âI know.â
You swap positions on the chair, but this time, he sits facing you. His hands rest loosely on your hips as you comb through his silver curls, finding the perfect little section.
Carefully, you twist the grey strand between your fingers before loading the brush with dye, and paint it from root to tip with slow, deliberate strokes, your tongue peeking between your teeth in concentration.
Jack doesn't say anything, just smiles and looks up at you all softly.Â
Once youâre done wrapping it in foil, you peel your gloves off and gently wipe away the tiny smear of cherry-red dye that had stained the skin near his temple.
You tilt your head, admiring your handiwork.
âPerfect. You're gonna have to leave it on for thirty minutes."
He nods obediently.
âAnd then?â
âThen we'll both go have a shower.â
Before you can step away, his hands suddenly wrap around your waist.
You barely have time to protest before he effortlessly lifts you onto his lap.
âJack!â You laugh, instinctively putting your hands on his shoulders.
His arms tighten around your waist, chin tipping up so he can look at you.
A slow Cheshire grin spreads across his face.
âThirty minutes,â he murmurs, leaning in until his lips brush yours. âLot we could do in thirty minutes.â
The next night, Jack walks in through the doors of PTMC, and heads straight to the nurses station to Dana, who's there, managing the entire team like she always does. She glances up and stills as soon as Jack comes into view.
âWhat the hellâs in your hair?â
Jack blinks innocently.
âMy hair?â
By now, Santos has looked up from where she was sitting and charting.
âNo fucking way.â
He ignores them, squinting at the board.
âWhat've you got for me tonight, Dana?â
Dana folds her arms, peering up at him over her glasses.Â
âDid you dye your damn hair?â she asks again.Â
Jack just shrugs, instinctively reaching up, absent-mindedly touching the little streak before a small, private smile pulls at the corner of his mouth.
âYeah, I did. So?â
Santos continues staring at him from behind the screen.
âYou really let her do that?â
Jack shakes his head then.Â
âAsked her to.â
Dana and Santos share a look, before Dana shakes her head, grinning, and Santos lets out a low whistle.Â
âYou're whipped, old man.â
A few snickers ripple around the nurses' station. Jack doesn't even flinch.Â
Yeah, Jack thinks, smiling into his coffee. They asked, and now everyone knows who put it there.
lmao me shoving in at least one paragraph filled with yearning sorry i'm genuinely a hopeless romantic.
headcannons ٠࣪â Dean Winchester x cat lover!reader (f), cat being lightly described as a black cat + female (but you can use ur imagination if you have a furbaby ofc), softie!reader implied, I was inspired while shopping for my new kitten lol
٠࣪â Dean put off telling you heâs allergic to cats for as long as possible, he wasnât really a pet guy in general, but he saw the way you adored that little furball, and he just couldnât break your heart. Until one day Sam mentioned it and he sent daggers toward his brother, accusing him of lying. You didnât believe it of course but you appreciated him trying to not make you feel bad (no wonder he sneezed so much after spending the night at your place).
٠࣪â Dean was intimidated at firstâ sure, heâs gone up against things nightmares are made ofâ but that little feline was like your personal bodyguard and teddy bear wrapped up in one, he couldnât compete.
٠࣪â plus Dean didnât really do cats, dogs maybe but cats? Thatâs a whole different story, he doesnât even remember the last time heâd even seen a cat before you strolled in his life with your little void of black fur.
٠࣪â your cat would honestly kinda be in the same boat. Before youâd met Sam and Dean there werenât many men in your life, well⌠there weren't many people in general, so sheâs a little territorial in the beginning. That is until Deans sat on your bed while you shower, your cat just staring him down from where sheâs sat at her spot on the opposite corner, then she goes up to him. Hesitantly sniffs his leg before deeming him safe enough to approach, âhi, catâŚâ Dean murmurs skeptically as the fuzzy feline walks up to him, heâs stiff as a board, âlook I know Iâm not your preferred company, but our girlâs showering so Iâm all youâve got right now⌠please donât bite me.â She stares again, much closer to him now, he could reach out and touch her without much effort, and she just climbs on his lapâ like itâs nothing, she adjusts her little body and a low purr starts. That was the day Dean realized his girlfriend's cat is just as obsessed with him as his girlfriend.
٠࣪â when you move into the bunker (Deans choice, surprisingly) there is no escaping the cat, she follows you everywhere, her little stuffed mice and decapitated feather toys are scattered through the library, her bowls are in the kitchen, her food and treats are next to his beef jerky, and donât even get him started on the cuddling.
٠࣪â cuddling used to be simple, just holding each other, just you and him. But every time (without fail) your fuzzball decides she deserves a spot between you two as well. Even when things get a little more⌠intimate⌠she will make her presence known with a loud MEOW!! and jumping up to rub against Dean's bicep. It never fails to make you absolutely crack up, perfectly ruining the moment. The first time you got intimate within the fuzzy princessâs vicinity, Dean couldâve sworn the cat thought you were in danger with how loud she was yelling at the two of you.
٠࣪â heâd never admit how much heâs grown to love your cat, even when she makes his nose stuffy and his eyes itchy, but youâve caught the way he pets her when she settles on his chest while heâs in his Dean Cave, and the way he murmurs âhere ya go, sweetheartâ with a little head scratch when he fills her bowl, and how heâll giggle like a little kid when he plays with her while she has zoomiesâ it warms your heart to no end.
As a generally quiet member of the Tumblr community, I feel itâs really important for people to speak up about this in The Pitt Fandom right now.
Personal kinks and fetish preferences vary from person to person, are ultimately unique, and no one should feel ashamed of being sexually aroused. However, recently Iâve noticed a huge increase in dad!bf fics and fauxcest, which have been perpetuating harmful pedophil1c behaviours and tropes, often veiled behind the liberty that fan fiction allows when it comes to writing and portraying sex. However many people read fanfics passively and without any intention of engaging with the content, so theyâre probably unaware of what theyâre supporting. Nevertheless, allowing this kind of content in fandom spaces creates a predatory environment for minors and signals to those with ill intentions that a community permits vulnerable individuals to be exposed to such material. This, in turn, fosters a breeding ground for grooming and sexual abuse. I think everyone should be aware of the content currently published under the Pitt tag and, unfortunately, also under the Jack Abbot x reader tag. report and block.
This doesnât apply to fics with clear signs of consenting adults, nor is it meant to criminalize fics that feature the terms âdaddyâ or âkiddoâ. I personally enjoy age gap works, and find them hot.
synopsis: Sometimes, dating Adrian Chase means sneaking through basement windows because he really wants you to see his secret basement and really doesn't want you to meet his mom.

notes: brought to you by this request! title from the song "big dumb sex" by soundgarden which I firmly believe Adrian would like because it reminds him of all the glam metal songs about sex that Peacemaker likes but it has none of the subtext.
âHonestly, Iâm kind of looking forward to meeting your mom!â
Adrian slammed on the brakes so hard you had to brace your hand against the dashboard, your seatbelt cutting tight across your skin. His eyes were wide, a grimace of pure panic on his lips.
âYou canât meet my mom!â
You blinked back at him. âSorry?â
âThereâs no fucking way youâre meeting my mom,â he said again, his tone firmer this time, but not any more elucidating than the last outburst.Â
âI donât understand. Arenât we going to your house?â you asked.
âYes.â
âA house you live in with your mother?â
âAlso yes.â
âIs she home?â
âProbably!â
âBut I canât meet her?â
âFuck no!â
You stared back at your boyfriend who looked like he might throw up at any second. His fingers drummed against the steering wheel. A blaring horn behind you made you nearly jump out of your skin, and when you looked in the rearview there was a line of cars held up behind you. Right. Because Adrian had stopped in the middle of a busy road. Adrian, however, suddenly no longer seemed to be in a rush to get home.
You put your hand on his forearm. âAde, you gotta drive.â
âOkay,â he managed, voice a ragged whisper. He pried his foot off the gas and then proceeded to drive a blazing 25mph the entire rest of the way. You waited until the Seabring was parked on a cute, tree-lined neighborhood street to speak again.
âIâm not going to lie, Iâm a little offended you donât want me to meet your mom,â you said finally. Adrian laughed, doubling over so sharply you were afraid he was going to smack his face on the steering wheel.
âSheâs the one who should be offended. Sheâs a total fucking bitch and I donât want you to meet her because I donât want her to, like, get her stupidness all over you.â
âBabeâŚâ you breathed. âRespectfully, what the fuck?â
Adrian raked his hands over his face. âYou donât get it.â
âOkay. Youâre right. I donât think I get it,â you agreed. You laid a hand on his arm. âBut, clearly itâs stressing you out. So, decision made, easy peasy!â
Adrian peeked at you from behind his hands. âYeah?â
âYeah! AlthoughâŚâ you hesitated to ask because you could only imagine you werenât going to like the answer. âHow are we going to get in without your mom finding out?â
âYouâre lucky I love you,â you grumbled, wiggling in his grasp. âYour hand is so far up my ass Iâm starting to feel like a puppet.â
âJust let go of the window sill!â Adrian hissed. âIâve got you, Iâm not going to let you fall.â
You groaned and finally relented, knowing for a fact that Adrian did not have you. But the boy was going to have to learn his lesson the hard way, you supposed. The two of you fell into a tangled heap, your elbow landing squarely in his ribs, his knee striking against your hip in a surge of pain, your forehead colliding with his chin.
âOw fuck â ow, ow, fucking hell, Adrian,â you grumbled, trying to gain any sort of leverage, but your hands were sinking into some sort of fabric over and over again on either side of Adrian while he tried to get his hands in between you, making sure you werenât injured.
âSorry! Sorry, are you okay? Are you alright? Speak so I know youâre not concussed!â Adrian said, scrambling. You rolled your eyes and batted his hand away.
âIâm fine,â you grumbled. âThat is not how you check for a concussion, by the way.â
âWhatâŚwhat is this?â you asked. Whatever it was groaned under your weight as you struggled to your knees. âIs this a futon? Why do you have a futon in your basement?â
You climbed off of him with a bit of difficulty before you turned your attention towards the rest of the basement. âWhat the f â â
Adrian clapped a hand over your mouth from behind. He was blazingly warm against your back, his other arm wrapped tightly around your waist like he was afraid you were going to run. You swayed slightly in his arms as you regained steady footing, your balance entirely thrown off by his sudden seizure of you. You nipped at his palm gently and he let you go. You turned to find his wide eyes focused on his slightly wet palm.
âCare to explain the drugs, Adrian?â you asked, this time managing to keep a lid on your volume.
He simply shrugged. âWhat do you mean? Where else would I put it?â
âWhere did this all come from?â you asked, turning to look at it all again â pallets of drugs (was that fucking cocaine?) and what had to be millions of dollars, carefully banded and stacked in various places. You reached out to run your hand across the money but Adrian batted your hand away.
âThatâs blood money, donât touch it!â
âWhere did all this come from, Adrian?â
âWhat, you think Iâd just leave drugs and cash at crime scenes where anyone could take it? Like corrupt fucking police? Absolutely not,â he asserted, crossing his arms over his chest. âCanât believe you think I should let the cops have all this.â
âI never said that, Adrian!â you exclaimed. âFirst and foremost, fuck the police â â
âFuck the police,â Adrian agreed with a thoughtful nod.Â
âSecondly! I just canât believe you never told me about this! I thought that we tell each other everything? I mean, you told me you were Vigilante on our first date.â
âSecond date.â
âAdrian, weâve been over this, having sex after a first date does not count as a second date.â
âAgree to disagree.â He crossed his arms over his chest and frowned. âAnd itâs not my fault your pussy is like my personal truth serum.â
âAdrianâŚâ
His face contorted. âWhat, is that a weird thing to say?â
âItâs not really a normal thingâŚâÂ
âWhatever,â he pouted. âYou donât get it.â
âCome on, Ade, you were so excited to show me your basement. So give me the grand tour.â
âFine,â he huffed. He crossed to a workbench and gestured at it vaguely. âThese are my power tools. Over there is my wall of chemicals. Tour concluded.â
âAdrian,â you groaned.
âWhat?â he snipped. âYou wanted the tour â there it is!â
âI cannot believe you made me shimmy through a window for that.â
âYeah, well, sorry itâs disappointing.â It was said in a way in which you knew he was not sorry at all. He was being petulant.Â
âItâs not disappointing, it's justâŚa lot for me to take in. Iâm very interested in it!â
âUh huh,â Adrian mumbled, mindlessly thumbing through what appeared to be a box full of pocket knives?
Well, you could be petulant too.
âFine!â you proclaimed, hands on your hips. Adrian rolled his eyes and you bit back a grin before climbing up onto the futon.Â
âWhat are you doing?â
âIâm going back out the window,â you explained with a nonchalant glance over your shoulder at him. He was looking up at you with those big eyes of his and you almost caved instantly. It would be so easy to climb down, wrap your arms around him, kiss the grumpiness right off of his handsome face. But you liked teasing him so much more.Â
So you stretched up, desperately trying to hook your fingers into the windowsill that was just out of reach.
âYouâre not going to be able to reach that,â Adrian said matter-of-factly.
âWatch me,â you countered, wedging your tongue between your teeth as you tried to will yourself taller out of pure spite.Â
âDo you think youâre magically going to get taller orâŚ?â Adrian asked like he could read your goddamn mind.
âBe quiet, Adrian, Iâm concentrating,â you snipped back. You rolled up onto your tiptoes but the physics of standing on a soft surface made that change negligible. You dropped your arms down with a huff and jumped off the futon.
âOkay, Iâm using the door!âÂ
âWhat?â Adrian gasped, lunging for you as you feinted towards the basement door. You laughed in delight as he grabbed you by the waist and yanked you backwards onto the futon, pinning you beneath him.
âOh no! You caught me!â you wheezed out, all the air knocked out of your lungs.
Adrianâs eyes narrowed in suspicion. âWere you really going to go out the door?â
âWell, well, look at the situation we find ourselves in,â you commented drily, ignoring the question, batting your eyelashes at Adrian.Â
âIf you donât answer my questions just know I know a lot of really effective torture techniques,â Adrian said lowly, a familiar hunger already creeping into his expression. You ran your fingers through his curls, dragging your nails against his scalp. âAre you trying to distract me?âÂ
âMe? Never,â you murmured. He shivered against you and you gave his hair a testing pull. His mouth dropped open slightly and you took the opportunity to sweep your tongue across his lower lip. He whimpered into your mouth as his hips rolled against yours instinctively.Â
âSomeoneâs eager,â you assessed, grasping at his shirt and trying to untuck it from his jeans. âWhat did it, the puppet thing? Threatening to torture me? Tackling me onto your weird sex futon?â
âIt is not a weird sex futon! Just a regular futon!â Adrian laughed against your neck and then winced. âStop making me laugh, I can feel it in my dick.â
You hooked a leg over his hip. âThen maybe you ought to do something with that dick of yours.â
âI really want to have sex with you right now,â Adrian began.
âWhy do I feel like thereâs a but coming â â
âButts canât come,â Adrian snickered. Then he shook his head like a hapless puppy, his curls tossing about. God he was such a dork sometimes. But he was your dork. âThough, I do sometimes feel like I could come just by looking at yours.â
You narrowed your gaze at him despite how adorably stupid he was being. âJust say it, Adrian. Why canât we have sex right now?â
âThe thing isâŚyouâre kind of loud?â Adrian said with a wince. Then his eyebrows lifted. âAnd I love that about you. I love how loud you are. I love thinking about how if we lived in Metropolis Superman for sure would have heard us having sex and heâd be so fucking jealous. Thinking about it right now actually is making me, uh, a little hard â â
âAdrian!â
âIâm just being honest!â he huffed. You decided not to comment on exactly who was the loud one in the relationship because you knew he would take it as a challenge and you liked hearing all the little pathetic sounds heâd make. He pushed his glasses up his nose only for them to slide right back down again as he looked down at you. âMy mom cannot hear us.â
You nodded slightly. âI understand that that might be embarrassing for you. We donât have to.â
âOh, I wouldnât be embarrassed!â he said, eyes wide. âI just donât want her to know youâre here. Because if she hears us then sheâll ask who you are, and then sheâll want to know how we met and if we want snacks and if youâre staying for dinner and itâs a whole fucking thing.â
âAde, that sounds very normal.â You propped yourself up slightly on your elbows. You hooked a finger into the collar of his rugby shirt. âWhat if I promise to be quieter than a church mouse?â
âWhat does that mean? I donât really have a reference point for how quiet that is?â he replied, his tone tinged with the beginnings of a classic Adrian spiral. âOn a scale of like 1 to 10 where 1 is â â
You interrupted him with a kiss, your tongue wasting no time dipping into his already open mouth. He came alive, wriggling against you, hands grabbing hold of your biceps, grip tight, muscles taut and somewhere between pushing you away and pulling you even closer.
âYou didnât answer my question,â he murmured against your lips.Â
âItâs just an expression, love,â you replied, leaning up to kiss the tip of his nose. Then you narrowed your gaze slightly, squinting to study the color of his eyes up so close. In the dark basement his pupils threatened to swallow the dark green whole. Well, the darkness and your hand that had slipped below the waist of his jeans probably had something to do with it too.Â
âHow about if I get too loud then you just put your hand here,â you instructed, bringing his hand over your mouth and pressing it firmly.Â
âOkay,â Adrian said, practically drooling. âI think I can do that.â
âWell then, problem solved!â
You were working to shimmy his jeans down slightly when he grabbed you by the wrist.Â
âI wanna go down on you,â he breathed.
You kissed the corner of his mouth. âOkay. We can do both thingsâŚunless youâre in a rush for some reason?â
âItâs just that if you keep touching my dick like that Iâm going to come in my pants, and I really want to put it in you,â he said, practically a whisper. There was absolutely zero reason for that sentence to be as hot as it was.
âWhy is it that you seem like youâre begging every single time even though weâve had sex a lot, Adrian,â you teased gently, brushing a stray curl out of his face.Â
âWhat if you change your mind, hm?â Adrian asked, dipping his head so you could scratch your fingers across his scalp. âWhat if one day you wake up and youâre like, oh gosh, I never want to have sex with that weirdo ever again?â
âFirst of all, being a weirdo is strangely part of your charm,â you replied, pausing to kiss his forehead. âSecond of all, I do think youâve ruined me for life. You dick game is incomprehensibly good and youâve literally made me go temporarily blind with your head between my legs. I donât want to have sex with anyone but you.â
âNot even Peacemaker? Because I really couldnât blame you if you did want to have sex with him. Trust me, I get it, heâs kind of a perfect human man,â Adrian insisted like he was rationalizing in an argument he was having with only himself. His lips pursed. âAlthough he is kind of all hard edges so having sex with him is kinda sharp which you might not like.â
You were already reaching between the two of you to undo your button-down shirt.Â
âNot even Peacemaker,â you affirmed. Adrian seemed to wrestle against his own grin, both pleased as punch that you didnât want to have sex with anyone but him, and also a bit insulted that you didnât want to have sex with his favorite person in the world.Â
Tugging your shirt open, you guided his hands up to the front clasp of your bra and used his fingers to flick it open. Whatever logic war was raging in his brain was struck silent by the sight of your breasts. Maybe it was an unfair hand to play, but you wanted your boyfriend to stop thinking about his best friend and start thinking a little more about fucking you senseless.Â
He wasted no time taking each of your nipples into his mouth in turn, because, as always, he insisted it was only fair for them both to get the same amount of attention. Though youâd never asked, you were fairly certain Adrian had been the type of kid to make sure each toy got the same amount of playtime so that no one toy felt left out.
He swapped his mouth for his hand on your chest and kissed his way down the rest of your body. He deftly yanked your pants and underwear down, kissing the inside of your knees as he peeled them the rest of the way off your body. In his eagerness to get down between your legs he scooted down the futon, his boot kicked one of the metal shelves behind him. The whole unit swayed slightly, the metal ringing out in a resonant sound.Â
âAdrian?â A womanâs voice called from upstairs. You froze, but Adrian wasnât deterred. âAre you down there, sweetie?â
Adrianâs mouth was decidedly preoccupied between your legs so he didnât answer â it was a good thing, because it probably would have involved some absolutely blatant response about the fact that he was, in fact, down there. You pushed at his head but he only looked up at you with a hungry glint in his eyes as he dragged his tongue through your folds, painfully slowly. You hissed in response and he moved his hips slightly against the futon, settling in for a hearty meal. When Adrian ate you out it was almost always multiple courses, a real fine dining experience.Â
He hadnât even put his fingers in you yet â just used one hand to spread you open wider for him while the other still played with your breasts, alternating between them, pinching and palming and scratching. His face was pressed so firmly between your legs, his tongue so deep into you you wondered if he was trying to eat his way to your heart.Â
âJesus, Adrian!â you whispered, your heel kicking at his hip, trying to get him to ease up a little. But he was hyper focused, like he was speedrunning his way to your orgasm. He moved, wrapping his arms around your thighs, pinning your hips down as they tried to wriggle away from him for just a little reprieve.Â
You heard footsteps on the stairs and you dug your heels into the futon, trying to pry yourself loose from his perfect, stupid fucking mouth. Instead, he traced his teeth over your sensitive clit and you came hard suddenly. You clapped your own hand over your mouth and Adrian batted it away. You managed to stay quiet, the only sound your own ragged breath in the quiet of the basement and the wet, obscene noise of Adrianâs mouth against you.
Except Adrian continued his ministrations between your legs, letting up with his mouth only to look up at you and grin while he slowly slid two fingers into you. He had that calculated look in his eye again and you knew he was studying you. He liked knowing exactly how each movement, each touch affected you. He crooked his fingers inside you, watching closely as you bit down hard on your lower lip in a desperate bid to stay quiet.
He was doing it on purpose. He wanted an excuse.Â
You hated giving him what he wanted so easily when he was being a menace but you could taste your own blood on your tongue and he used his other hand to rub at your clit while he kissed your hip bone. A noise squeaked out past your lips and Adrianâs grin grew into a full fledged smile, the kind where you could see all his teeth. The kind that was both predatory and full of genuine delight.Â
He moved his fingers faster, pushed deeper, bit hard at your hip, bruising the skin. You fumbled for his head but you could barely see straight. You managed to pull a fistfull of hair but it only made him giggle before he lapped at your cunt and made you come undone all over again.Â
âAdrian!â you hissed through the rheumy film of your orgasm. Adrian pulled his fingers free and popped them straight into his mouth and pure, wet want flooded your own.Â
âAdrian?â There was a knock at the basement door. You clapped your hands over your burning face but Adrian just seemed annoyed.
âFuck off, mom!â he called, sliding his way up your body to bite at the sensitive spot below your ear. He loosely pressed his hand over your lips and you werenât sure if you were grateful or pissed. When the friction of his jeans between your legs almost made you sob against his hand, you settled on grateful.Â
âDo you have a friend in there with you?â his mom asked. âShould I make some snacks?â
âJesus fucking â no, mom!â he whined, even as he rolled his hips against you. He grabbed at your breast with his free hand again and you bit his hand in retaliation.Â
âOw!âÂ
âAre you okay, honey? Please tell me youâre not giving yourself stitches in there again!â his mom continued. She seemed kind of sweet â what the hell was Adrianâs deal?
âYour mom seems nice,â you managed, free of his hand.Â
âStop getting ideas, I can see you getting an idea right now!â Adrian protested, pinning your hands above your head and silencing your mouth with a kiss.
âAdrian, hon, who are you talking to? Is thatâŚis that a girl in there?â His motherâs voice noticeably ascended the scale in pitch and Adrian swallowed your laugh, your shoulders shaking silently.Â
âIâm talking to my bros in the Fortnite lobby, Jesus fucking Christ! Can you hop off my dick for like five seconds, please?â Adrian shouted back, pulling away from your mouth, making you unacceptably hungry. When he returned to you, you bit his lip in recompense. He hissed but surged forward anyway, his tongue deep in your mouth.Â
âOkay, Addy, you just let me know if you need anything! Just holler! Iâll be upstairs!â
You waited for the sound of footsteps retreating back up the stairs to pull back.
âSo, Iâm one of the bros now?â you taunted.
âWell, youâre better than one of the bros. Youâre likeâŚyouâre my best bro. A bro for life. But, like, in a romantic way, a romantic bro,â he explained. You nodded like that made sense. Because, strangely, it did.
âSoâŚAddy?âÂ
âPlease donât â â
âItâs kinda cute!â
âNo, it makes me sound like a fucking infant. And Iâm not an infant. Iâm a grown man.â
You giggled. âYeah, I havenât forgotten, Ade. As a matter of factâŚâ
Your hand slid in between you, grasping at him through his pants. He was, unsurprisingly, already completely hard. He hissed through his teeth and then wrangled himself out of his rugby shirt, treating you to a spectacular view of his chest. A thin sheen of sweat covered him in a way that made him look unfairly hot â like the centerfold in a magazine of hot nerds. You ran your hand up from the waist of his pants to the small, pale trail of hair just above and let your fingertips press firmly into the skin of his stomach. His gaze narrowed at you.
âFlip over,â he whispered, voice husky.
âMake me,â you whispered back. Adrian blinked back at you for just a moment before he slipped his hands around your waist and tossed you onto your stomach like it was no effort at all. He reached up and stripped you of the button down and the bra that still clung to your shoulders. His fingertips bit into the swell of your ass but then he paused.
âSorry, was that okay?â he asked, sounding breathless in a nervous way. You looked back at him and offered a calm smile.
âThat was perfect,â you assured him. âYouâre perfect.â
âOkay, because if you want to fuck some other way thatâs totally okay too, I just thought â â
âOh no, not you fucking me while Iâm laying on my stomach! Whatever will I do!â you drawled sarcastically as you started to twist in his arms, bringing the back of your hand up to your forehead like some scandalized, vaguely transatlantic woman. Then you paused and blinked at him. âThat was sarcasm by the way.â
âUh, duh, I totally knew that because you love when I fuck you like that! Itâs like one of your favorite things. Remember that time we prone-boned and you like totally ruined your sheets?â
âOh my god, Adrian,â you whined, your hands flying up to cover your increasingly red face.Â
âWhat! Itâs just a statement of fact. And a statement of hotness.â
You finished flipping onto your stomach if only to bury your burning face in the futon. Adrianâs hand ran along your damp inner thigh for a moment before he nudged your leg up slightly, and pulled your hips up and flush against his.Â
âOh shit,â he mumbled, and not in the good way. You lifted your head to look at him over your shoulder.
âWhatâs wrong?â
âI donât know if I have a condom?â
âYou have a fucking arsenal down here but not a single condom?â
âWell, itâs not like Iâve ever had a girl down here before!â
âAw, is that your roundabout way of saying Iâm special?â you asked, batting your eyelashes. But Adrian was too preoccupied scrounging around for a condom. He was so cute doing it you were loathe to tell him all he had to do was open your purse. The man was desperate for it and you were willing to torment him just a little bit â he would be handsomely rewarded for it in the end.Â
âHey Ade?â
âHold on, Iâm sure thereâs one here somewhere!â He yanked another drawer open, violently rattling whatever was inside. He slammed a cabinet open to no avail. You started to feel bad, even if you were getting a great view of his impressive physical form in the process.Â
âAdrian!â you called, louder this time to get through to him over the small ruckus he was making, but hopefully still quiet enough to not rouse his motherâs suspicions again. Finally, he turned and looked at you dangling a condom from your fingertips.Â
âYouâre fucking perfect,â he said breathlessly. âNo, seriously, I wish I could paint you Titanic-style right now exactly like this.â
Adrian was on top of you again in the blink of an eye, teeth tearing at the foil of the condom and spitting it aside. You watched over your shoulder as he realized he still needed to take his pants off and was trying to figure out balancing the opened condom while he did that. You giggled and held out your hand for him to rest the condom on your palm.Â
He tripped up off the couch, halfway out of his pants before he was even fully upright. He hopped on one foot as he desperately tried to free his other from the leg of his jeans, and you were treated to an increasingly silly whispered string of curses.Â
When he was finally free he paused, putting his hands on his hips, his chest rising and falling quickly.Â
You giggled. âAre you winded?â
âNo!â Adrian said, full volume. Your eyes flicked to the ceiling of the basement, but Adrianâs mom seemed to have gotten the memo. âThis isâŚIâm doing breathing exercises, actually. Gotta loosen up my diaphragm for optimal airflow so I can have so much sex with you.â
âGet over here, you absolute goober,â you replied with a beckoning crook of your finger. Adrian stooped beside you to retrieve the condom you were still holding and pressed a quick peck to your lips, upturned in an amused smile.
He settled back between your legs, kneeling on the futon as he rolled the condom on and you waited patiently with your chin in your hands. The feeling of his warm fingers back between your legs surprised you, dragging through your folds, gathering slick before sliding his hand over the condom.Â
âAre you good? Are you comfy?â Adrian asked as he grabbed hold of your hips and angled them slightly upward. He positioned himself at your entrance, dragging the tip through your folds, but waited for your approval. You quietly hissed at the sensation.
âPlease, Adrian,â you managed. That was approval enough for him â he wasnât in one of his taunting moods, determined to draw it out forever to the point of insufferability. No, Adrian was borderline efficient. It was a mood he sometimes got into â careful, precise, skilled. He pushed in, a long, slow stretch of flesh, the warm weight of Adrian partially against your back, keeping you pressed into the futon. A hand groped at the flesh of your hip and he gently guided you into the position he needed.
And that made your eyes water, the perfect depth, the perfect speed, the perfect amount of pressure â a gasp dragged from your lips at the angle. Adrian knew what made you tick. Youâd witnessed the man disassemble and reassemble a gun with alarming speed on more than one occasion, and he knew how to disassemble you just as easily.Â
It took no time at all for pressure and warmth to mount between your legs.Â
âPut your hand over my mouth,â you panted.
âWhat?â
âI donât think that I can keep being quiet,â you said, voice ragged. As if attempting to prove you wrong, Adrian buried himself, deep and slow, and a yelp came from your lips before you could stop yourself.Â
âRight. Okay,â Adrian said in the kind of voice that sounded like he was processing a direct order. You tilted your head up slightly and Adrian dutifully cupped one hand over your mouth.
âOh shit,â he managed. His fingers flexed against your skin as he thrust into you again, angling your hips ever so slightly once more, perfecting the position. Your needy hand slid under your body and Adrian groaned as your fingers touched at where your bodies were joined, fingers parting around the slick base of his cock for one taunting drag before retreating to your clit. Adrianâs pace faltered and you grinned into his hand. You nipped at his palm again but he stayed firmly in place and instead responded by draping himself further over your back, his weight pressing you further into the futon and your own eager fingers.Â
You were close, close, closer as his fingers bit into your skin and you rubbed desperate circles at the apex of your thighs. You clenched around him and Adrian whined.Â
âThatâs not fair,â he hummed into your hair. He slowed for a frustrating moment and then his mouth was at your ear. âCan I try something?â
A million things raced through your mind â an electric series of possibilities, some of which perhaps bordered on terrifying. But you trusted Adrian. You loved him. Fucking you was a science at which he was studiously determined to excel. So, you nodded. And Adrian draped the full weight of himself on you, carefully, gently. And then he wrapped his other hand over your eyes, casting you into total darkness.Â
âIâve got you,â he said, his voice low in his chest against your back, words that sounded equally like reassurance and threat. A loving adage and a declaration of total possession. Your body responded unconsciously, pushing back against his thrusting hips, terribly wanting. âI want you to come, just for me, okay?â
You made a noise, something wrenched from deep within, muffled expertly by Adrianâs capable hands. He dragged his tongue along the side of your neck and then his teeth nipped the skin. A jolt of pleasure ran down your spine. You werenât sure how much longer you could hold out when Adrian was dragging himself in and out of you with a studied speed, burying deep every time, hitting that perfect spot.Â
ââm close, are youâŚclose,â Adrian slurred before biting at your jaw, his words barely coherent.Â
âMhm,â you spoke into his hand, sure you were probably drooling. You didnât care. Adrian nudged your knee ever so slightly with his own, spreading you open just a bit more. But it was enough. In the total darkness of Adrianâs embrace, you crashed over the edge, a shout muffled into his hand. You breathed quickly through your nose, finding it significantly harder to catch your breath and Adrian chased you into bliss only a second later, a curse hissed through his clenched teeth, certainly too loud. His hand released your mouth as his forehead fell into the curve of your shoulder. His sweaty hair tickled at your chin and you turned, still blind, to clumsily press a kiss to his temple.Â
âWell, that was new,â you remarked, still trying to catch your breath. In the darkness beneath Adrianâs hand, the edges of your vision sparked.
âWas it okay? Did you like it?â
âIt was more than okay, babe,â you murmured assurance. That was Adrian â aiming to please, even when it came to dabbling in something like minor sensory deprivation.
After a long moment, his hand fell from your eyes to the futon with an audible thump and he slipped out of you, laying half on top of you and half wedged beside you on the futon.
âI feel like I donât have any bones anymore,â he muttered. âYou stole them. Youâre a bone thief.â
âIâll keep your bones safe in my bone collection. Promise,â you laughed breathlessly. He perked up slightly, lifting his head so he could look at your face.Â
âYeah?â he asked, eyes wide with puppydog-esque devotion.
âYeah. Youâve got centerpiece level bones. Real main attraction stuff.â
He brushed your hair from your face, and then wiped your cheeks free of tears, thumb grazing across your lower lip, collecting any errant spit. He popped his thumb into his mouth and you recoiled.
âAdrian, gross!â
âSorry I just want part of you in me,â he replied like you were the one being unreasonable.
You smirked at him and shifted so that you could slip on top of him, straddling his narrow waist. âMaybe itâs time we revisit that conversation about peg â â
âAdrian?âÂ
Adrianâs motherâs voice came from directly outside the door. You clamped your mouth shut, looking down at Adrian with wide eyes.Â
âWhat, mom?â he called back, rolling his eyes, his head falling back onto the futon.Â
âDo you and your girlfriend want to come upstairs for dinner? I made a baked mac ân cheese with the breadcrumb topping you like so much!âÂ
âGirlfriend?â he scoffed, voice traitorously too high. âWhat girlfriend? Youâre so crazy, I donât know what youâre talking about!â
âOh, sweetie, Mrs. Peterson from across the street called and she said she saw you sneaking in through the basement window with a very pretty young lady!â
You had to laugh. There was simply no other choice. Adrian groaned and draped his arm over his face, treating you to a wonderful (very biteable) view of his bicep. âFuck, I knew I always hated Mrs. Peterson. No trustworthy person has that many chihuahuas.â
When Adrian didnât respond one way or the other to the evidence presented, his mother called out again, âDoes the pretty young lady like mac ân cheese?â
You grinned down at Adrian who appeared to be going through the five stages of grief in quick succession. Luckily for him it was going to take a lot more than an overbearing mother to scare you off. If you could survive the Vigilante of it all, you could survive anything. You leaned down, bit Adrianâs bicep and then kissed his swollen lips before he could protest.
âThe pretty young lady loves mac nâ cheese!â you called back.
