Masterlists Begin Below, I will try to update masterlists monthly if time allows it.
Summ: It was just supposed to be a simple mission, that woman wasn’t supposed to be there, she shouldn’t have been here! Amo shouldn’t have to face such a demon while she’s alone.
TW: Mentions of Amo’s Backstory, Heavily Amo Focused Chapter, Human Trafficking, Amo’s Mother 🙄, Amo overcoming her past, Etc…
A simple supply trade mission, that’s all it was supposed to be. While you were still able to you insisted that Semiu send you on light duty missions to be useful. Enjin wanted to fight her for sending you out but being a member of Team Front meant you’d get dispatched with both Fu and Amo. Fu and Hii refused to let you do any heavy lifting and Amo helped you with any task she could just to be sure you’d be safe. The Cleaners of the Southern Branch were so excited to see you and welcomed you with open arms, the supplies you’d brought over were crucial for some expansion projects they’d be working on.
“It’s gotten dark, I’m sure we’ll be fine just heading back tomorrow.”, you hummed craving a local meal in the city.
“Amo will call Rudo so he can pass on the message!”, she cheered excitedly.
You smiled sweetly at her and nodded, Fu followed you as you began to wander off. He promised Enjin he’d keep you safe. Amo called Rudo to inform him the group would be staying the night in the Southern Branch. Enjin wasn’t happy about it but that certainly didn’t matter to sweet Amo. Once she was done with the call she rejoined the group and you all took a trip out to the city, you were excited to appease your cravings despite how questionable they sounded to the kids. Your belly growing just a bit bigger every day, Amo chirped about how cute your excited face looked. Dinner was perfect with your two sweet angels but something had startled Amo in the window, she noticed a woman staring in on her with the exact same features as her. The woman covered her lips with her hand as if gasping and placed the other hand over her stomach, Amo’s eyes widened, she stood up quickly and raced outside startling you and Fu.
“Amo?”, Fu called out.
You finally noticed the woman outside and caught sight of a wicked smile under her hand, “Fu stay here.”, you growled.
Fu nodded and stayed behind at the table while you walked outside, the woman had Amo in her arms holding her tightly and crying over her. Amo sobbed happily excited to see her Mama again after all these years. You glared at the woman, instincts burning with the intense sense of danger.
“My sweet loving girl, look how big you’ve grown. Oh Amo how I’ve missed you.”, Her mother sobbed.
A snake, yeah that’s what was going on here. A sharp cough caught both of their attentions, they turned to you and Amo beamed introducing you to her birth mother.
Her mother’s eyes noticed the shared symbol on your uniforms, “You’re Cleaners…oh Amo that’s wonderful sweetheart. I’m glad you made such a wonderful life for yourself.”
“Amo come back right now. I don’t want you near that woman.”, You hissed, glaring daggers right into the woman’s head.
Amo noticed your dark expression and realized what you’d meant, through your precious moments together you listened to Amo’s story. You cried for her, you explained the horrors that she experienced and grounded her to the cruel reality she lived through. Amo stepped away from her mother but a part of her deep down desperately wanted to give her mother a chance.
“Mama why didn’t you ever come back for Amo? That man didn’t love me, he hurt me, why would you give Amo to someone like that?”, Amo questioned her mother, a hand over her chest where her heart rested.
Amo’s mother tensed for a moment, you could see the calculation behind her eyes as she mapped out a way to lie herself out of the truth. You began pulling your sewing needle from your hair and clutched it tightly in your hands, eyes already beginning to glow a dark murderous (f/c) color.
Amo’s mother began to cry, she fell to her knees and apologized to Amo for abandoning her to a cruel monster. “I’m so sorry my sweet girl, he promised he’d love you forever. I trusted him with your life but when I found out what he’d done to you I searched high and low for you. I had to bring you back but I could never find you.”, she cried hysterically hoping to win over Amo’s heart.
You recognized the tells of a liar and gritted your teeth angrily, Amo heard your powers engage and turned back to you begging you to stop immediately.
“Mama (Y/n) stop! Stop please, you have to be careful or you’ll hurt the baby.”, Amo pleaded with you, once she was in arms reach you pulled her close to your chest and pointed your weapon at the scheming woman.
“Ain’t you part of that flesh trader group on the outskirts of town? What the hell are you doing here in the city?”, you growled.
Her Mother’s mask broke upon hearing your questions, she smiled just as someone appeared behind you. Amo noticed the raised gun behind you but before she could warn you the cold metal of the gun slammed into the back of your head knocking you out cold. Amo caught you in her arms protecting you from the bad fall, she tried to activate her powers but she was met with a gun barrel straight to her face.
“Drop the lady and step back. You’ll sell for a good price.”, the man chuckled darkly.
A loud crash broke the tension on the street, Fu had changed into Hii and smashed right through the restaurant’s front window to get to you both. He easily incapacitated the man with the gun and knocked him out cold, but more arrived. Gunshots echoed through the streets terrifying the locals and causing a mass panic. Amo stood to help settle the situation but a towel was placed over her nose and mouth with a smell that made her sleepy. Hii positioned himself over your protecting you from anyone who dared to come near you. Before she fainted she could see your hand weakly reaching out for her, your dazed eyes staring at her before it all went black.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Whispers echoed around her, her vision was blurry but she could faintly make out the shape of her mother.
“If she’s a cleaner you think she’s a Giver? She’ll sell for a higher price if she is.”
“No Amo was never gifted with those abilities. She sold well as a child now that she’s matured I’m sure we’ll still get a high price for her.”, Her mother’s quiet voice responded.
Amo didn’t panic, she stayed perfectly still and just observed the things that were going on around her. The watchmen boots were still safety strapped to her feet, she could escape easily due to that fact. The man noticed Amo was awake and smiled at her, “Hey Girly you a giver?”, he asked squatting down to her level.
“Amo is a supporter. Get away from me you smell.”, Amo hissed.
Amo hated lying but she’s sure the situation called for it, her mother met her gaze before scoffing and turning away. The last bit of hope and love for her mother died in her heart right at that moment, it was a cruel reality but Amo wouldn’t let herself be sold off again. The carried Amo out by the scruff of her clothes and tossed her into a the back of a wagon with several others. Girls around her age and some even younger, she gritted her teeth in pure rage, staring at the innocent faces that might suffer a fate she once lived.
“Amo will save you all.”, she promised.
A sharp kick to her back threw her forward face first into the splintered wood of the wagon, “You ain’t saving no one Sugar, false hope won’t get you anywhere. Life ain’t some fairy tale you can just dream yourself out of.”, a random guard scoffed.
Sunset orange eyes darkened and shrank into a murderous glare at the man, “I hate you, you’ll be sorry for what you’ve done.”, Amo warned.
The guard smirked at her fiery attitude, he couldn’t wait to see Amo’s spirit break. The wagon began to move out, driving off into the trash zones where anything could happen. Amo hung her head, praying to whatever higher spirit out there that they’d all be saved and found. For a moment the memories of her past replayed in her mind, she’d been in this situation once before but this time she could fight, she wasn’t going to let this happen again especially not to these innocent girls around her.
“Are we going to be sold?”, one little girl asked her older sister.
“We’re going to be fine, we’re going together I won’t lose you.”, she promised.
Amo watched the loving scene and frowned realizing that she’d never get that love from her own birth mother but she understood that not all family was blood. Amo knew that the moment you’d wake up you’d hunt her down to the ends of the Ground until she was safe in your arms.
“Mama.”, she whispered softly, closing her eyes softly to focus on the memory of you.
Four loud explosions violently shook the wagon throwing everyone around until it came to a sudden stop. The guards all reached for their weapons when the place suddenly fell eerily silent. Two arms ripped through the fabric of the wagon cover dragging a man out screaming. His screams stopped as soon as he was dragged out and the same happened to the other two guards inside the cart. A weight sunk the back of the wagon, the flaps folding in to reveal a head of (h/c) hair, “Mama!”, Amo cheered.
The pupils of your (e/c) eyes dilated at the sight of your sweet girl before focusing on the others in the wagon.
“Good thing I brought a huge jeep.”, you hummed, your floating needles flew towards each bound girl and freed them of their ropes and cuffs.
Shouting and gunfire could be heard outside but you knew you’d all be safe thanks to Hii. You ordered every girl out leading them to safety with Amo helping you, the guards were all knocked out cold thanks to Hii who beamed once he saw Amo emerge from the wagon.
“Stop right there!”, a voice called out through the battlefield.
Amo’s mother was bruised and bloodied from the thrashing of the trucks, she pointed a gun angrily at you for taking the women. You stood protectively in front of the young girls and glared at her.
“Put the gun down.”, Amo ordered.
The gun moved towards her, hands shaking now and ruining her shot, “Amo do as your mother says and get back in the cart.”, she hissed.
“No!”
“No?”, Amo’s mother gasped, “What do you mean no? You listen to your mother Amo! Get back in the cart now, or I will kill this woman!”
Amo was done protecting this stupid woman that shared her face, her orange eyes began to glow and with one furious stomp to the ground the area was covered in a sickeningly sweet cloud, “Smells hold memory, let me share with you what your love got me!”, Amo roared bombarding her mother with the memories of her upbringing. You allowed her to take out her anger on her mother and ordered the other girls to load up into the jeep. Fu transformed back and helped while you waited for Amo to finish. Her mother collapsed to the ground, vomiting at the horrors that Amo endured.
“My name means love, I had hoped that you named me that because you loved me but I know now that it’s not the case. Amo loves her mama (Y/n), Amo loves the baby growing in her Mama’s belly, Amo loves her friends back home, but Amo will never waste her loves on the likes of you ever again. Amo will hate you until your dying breath for the pain you’ve caused me.”, she confessed in a cold lifeless tone.
The woman trembled in horror at the dangerous look in Amo’s eyes, “Amo!”, a soft voice called out through the dust, “Let’s go home princess, you don’t need to be here anymore.”
Amo powers deactivated the scents around them settling until she could see you again, arms opened wide and waiting for her. Amo didn’t waste her time looking back she ran to you and filled the space in your arms with her small frame.
“Amo’s done.”, she sighed hugging you tight.
You nodded and hugged her tight, “My brave girl.”
Fu waited patiently for the two of you to get back into the jeep, Amo got in first but her stupid mother just had to have one more word.
“You were my biggest mistake! I hate you Amo, I wish I never ha-“, before the woman could finish your fist connected right into her nose. She fell back crying from the pain while you hovered over her.
“Don’t you dare say that to my kid, you don’t deserve to speak her name or spit that crap out about her. You threw away an angel and now she’s mine and you’ll never get her back. Some people don’t deserve to be parents, but every child deserves a good parent and a loving home. Amo is my baby until my dying breath and if I ever see you around her again I will kill you.”, you warned kicking dirt into her face before finally taking your leave. You drove the girls and your team away from the pathetic group and returned to the Southern HQ. The other cleaners were waiting with blankets and food for the girls, you healed Amo from the small cuts and bruising she’d suffered. The girls were taken care of and your kids were fed and sheltered for the night.
You were antsy from today’s events and being so far away from home, you decided to give Enjin a call to ease your nerves. He was worried sick and had half a mind to drive over to the Southern HQ to see you but you promised everything was alright.
“You are grounded to base the moment you get back you hear me?”, he huffed over the call.
“Request denied.”, you teased.
“(Y/n)!”
You couldn’t help but laugh, “I get it E, I’ll be home tomorrow with the kids. Love you and good night.”
“Good night Wifey, love you so much.”
The call ended soon after, a deep sigh spilled from your lips. “You can come out, I know you’re there.”
Amo appeared in the doorway, eyes red rimmed and glossy. She walked up and joined you at your side hoping to share some of your quiet peace. Amo was silent for the most part, you knew she was struggling with everything that had happened today.
“You are my precious treasure Amo.”, you admitted happily.
That was enough to break the dams behind her eyes, tears spilled down her cheeks painting the floor. Amo leaned into your side for support, letting herself cry about a relationship she could never have with the woman that brought her into this world. You didn’t rush her, you didn’t ask her about why she was crying, you were just there for her like a good mother should be.
“You did a great job today Amo, you were very brave.”
Amo sniffled struggling to speak, “D-Do y-you…ngh…do you think Amo would’ve been a good daughter if Mama loved her? W-Why couldn’t she love me?”, she cried.
You wrapped your arm around her head pressing her closer to your chest letting her settle to the beat of your heart.
“Amo you just weren’t cherished properly, you always would’ve been a perfect daughter and you are to me and our family. Don’t give that woman anymore power over your life, you are perfect and you deserve to be loved.”
Her tearful eyes peered up at you, staring into your eyes to look for any hint of you lying to her but she found nothing. All Amo knew from you was pure unfiltered love and for that she was immensely grateful. She hugged you tight, burying her face into your chest, “You too Fu.”, you called out to the pair of raccoon eyes peeking at the two of you from the doorway.
Fu squeaked sheepishly before running to your side to join the embrace, “I can’t wait to go home tomorrow.”, you confessed.
“Same I hate it here.”, Fu giggled.
“I hate it here too.”, Amo agreed.
You smiled at the two teens in your arms and shooed them away telling them to get to bed. They both agreed and turned in for the night, but Amo had to say one last thing.
“Amo’s happy to be loved by you. Thank you so much Mommy, good night.”
You smiled at her, your heart swelling with pride and love for the girl who’s grown so much before your eyes, “Sweet dreams my princess.”
Just had my first born and your mother den series is tickling my maternal instincts 🥹
I wish you and your baby immense happiness and health ❤️ Glad you’re here joining us along for the ride. The Den Mother series is my pride and joy and I’m so happy so many people love it.
Pairing: Enjin x Pregnant! Fem! Reader, Various x Fem! Den Mother! Reader
Summ: A month has passed since the wonderful news, things have changed and it sinks in for everyone the moment your belly begins to show.
The news of your miracle pregnancy leaves a blissful energy around HQ, nothing seems different at first and your changes are so subtle almost nobody notices until a small impression of your belly starts to show through your clothes. Riyo is the first to notice it, she was humming to herself while she styled your hair during a rare moment of downtime. She was observant, always had been, so when she look into the large vanity mirror and noticed how much fuller your face looked her eyes couldn’t help but peer down over your shoulder and noticed the bump beginning to show through your shirt.
“Looks like your little bundle of sunshine is starting to show.”, Riyo smiled.
You looked down and noticed what she meant, “Oh would you look at that, I hadn’t even noticed yet.”, you beamed, laying a soft hand over your stomach.
“Are you excited?”
“I am Bubbles, scared but excited. This’ll be the first baby in the whole building, even when Bro brought Dear home he was still a toddler not a little infant. At least I know the baby will be safe.”, you giggled.
Riyo nodded her head in agreement, once your hair was finished she let you go but not before stealing a big hug from you. “You’re gonna do great, you’ll be an amazing mother just don’t forget about your rest of us when the real deal shows up okay?”, she whispered softly against your chest.
It was a rare moment of insecurity for Riyo but you knew of her past and how much the situation with her own parents had hurt her. Riyo sighed as your embrace became tighter, like it was grounding her back to reality. You pulled back, still holding her in your arms, and smiled at her with a loving fondness she almost couldn’t believe was meant for her.
“Riyo you will always be my first baby girl, even if you came to me as a full grown teen. Your smile and laughter bring me immense joy and when I see that big bright head of hair I know I’m safe with you. You’ve fought all your life Riyo but you don’t have to fight for your space in my heart, that’ll always be yours even when the baby arrives.”, you promised watching the light and fresh tears begin to shimmer in her emerald green eyes.
“I don’t deserve you.”, she admitted in a broken voice.
You pressed a gentle kiss to her forehead and pulled he back into your chest squeezing her tight, “But you have me and that’s all that matters, d’ya wanna know something? I told Enjin if we ever divorced I’d be taking all the kids in the divorce, he’s gonna owe me major child support.”, you teased pulling the most unhinged laugh from her body.
Riyo forgot she was upset thanks to you and that’s why she decided in that moment that she’d protect both you and the baby until her dying breath. Lunch was called throughout the building and Riyo dragged you along insisting that you needed to have a healthy diet to maintain the baby’s growth, the rest of your pack of kids were already downstairs when you arrived. Amo and Fu quickly filled your arms and greeted you with warm smiles, you flashed them both a loving smile and looked over at the tables to count the heads of each of your favorite people. Sadly Enjin, Rudo, and Zanka were missing.
“Did Akuta get dispatched?”, you asked Bro nearby.
“Small mission in the next town over, Enjin decided it was best to leave Riyo and Eishia here with you while him and the boys took the job.”, he explained offering to get your plate for you.
You waved him off and insisted you were still fully capable of providing for yourself, a trait your family would soon come to hate. Soon you sat down with a plate of food and shared lunch with the others while, you went about your day like normal. August bothered you with dramatic baby clothes ideas, Fu awaited your command for anything if you needed it, Amo baked pastries and treats for you while you worked, and even Semiu came to share a chat with you while you waited for your boys to come home.
Amo was cooing over the baby clothes you’d already made when her sweet orange eyes caught sight of your bump while you were reaching for something. She gasped quietly before letting out an excited squeal, “Mama you’re beginning to show.”, she cheered running up to you to help with the box you were reaching for.
“Just barely, Riyo noticed it before I did.”, you laughed.
Amo smiled at your words, “I hope when I’m bigger that I’ll be a great mama just like you.”
“And you will be but much much farther in the future and only with someone I approve of. No terrible men for my little princess!”, you huffed.
Amo’s cheeks flushed red with an intense blush, she adored how protective you were of her. “Mum I’m back with snacks, I even brought the cream cheese you wanted for your spicy chips.”, Fu announced his arrival.
“You’re my hero Fu, thank goodness for both you and Hii!”, you drooled snatching the snacks from him.
Fu beamed at your praise, soon the room filled with the sounds of your munching while the others helped you clean and organize the sewing room. Eventually just before nightfall Akuta had returned, Rudo hopped out of the jeep before it was even parked and booked it to find you. He called you on the blood chokers and asked for your location, thankfully you were close by in the living room downstairs.
“We’re back Mom!”, he cheered lunging at you for a hug.
Instinctively you opened your arms to welcome his hug but your shirt lifted a bit and his ruby eyes caught sight of your growing belly. Rudo stomped his foot back down into the ground and allowed himself to fall back onto the floor.
“Oh Rudo your head!”, you worried already activating your powers to heal him.
He sat up quickly and apologized, “My bad, I’m okay!”, he promised slowly taking a seat next to you and hugging you.
A confused look flashed on your face but you decided not to push the subject, “Welcome back Rudo, how was the mission?”, you inquired offering him a piece of cake.
Rudo happily snacked away at the piece like a glutton as Enjin and Zanka arrived. Zanka lifted Rudo away from you by his collar and filled the gap, “Zanka I will fight you.”, Rudo growled.
Zanka glared at him before flashing him a smug smile, “As long as (Y/n)’s here you wouldn’t dare.”
You giggled at his response and stood up to give them space, Rudo was on him before Zanka could even blink. While the two of them tussled on the ground a warm kiss was pressed to your cheek.
“Missed ya gorgeous, how was your day?”
“Perfectly fine, Riyo did my hair today and then I spent the rest of the day with everyone else. Did some reading, did some sewing, argued with August, normal stuff.”, Enjin chuckled softly at your eventful day. He wrapped an arm around your waist, his thumb just brushing over your stomach. He felt it, the new roundness that wasn’t there before, he couldn’t help but smile. Everyday was a reminder of how lucky he was to love you, his baby was growing inside of you and he was happy.
Soon it was bed time and everyone began going their separate ways, Enjin sat at the edge of the bed watching you change. Golden eyes noticed the changes in your body and it made him sigh dreamily, you were tossing one of his large shirts over your frame when you finally noticed the way he was looking at you.
“What?”, you giggled.
“Nothing I’m just so lucky to have you.”, he admitted.
You smile at his lovesick confession and look away trying to hide your flushed face, “Oh shut up you stupid flirt.”, you groan trying to remain levelheaded.
You get closer to him ready to join him in bed and sleep for the night but not before he gets the chance to do something. Enjin falls to his knees right in front of you and presses a sweet kiss to your belly, “Goodnight sweet sunshine, grow up big and strong for us.”, he whispered softly.
“Enjin you’re gonna make me cry.”
Enjin looked up at you with eyes that shimmered so brightly, “Only happy tears Wifey.”, he teased standing up to steal a peck from your lips.
Enjin adored you and he would adore you until the end of time. This pregnancy would be an experience but at least you’d both have each other through it all.
Pairing: Alpha! Sukuna Ryomen x Omega! Fem! Reader
Sukuna doesn’t remember every broken heart he’s caused, he was a selfish man who only cared about status and power. An Alpha amongst the common humans, but if there was one thing he couldn’t stand it was being played by someone he left in the ash of his wake. He’s the president of Jujutsu University’s Top Sorority, he’s supposed to be drinking and partying to his heart’s content not standing there like a fool. He should’ve ignored his stupid senses, he should’ve turned his nose away and just buried himself into the closest person he could find, not be here! The beautiful moans and the intoxicating scent of an Omega he’d hurt ages ago drew him here, ruby eyes blown wide with shock watching the raunchy scene before. Your trembling hips pushing back desperately against the knot of one of his fraternity brothers. Toji growls against your ear using his huge body to pin you to the mattress as he filled your warm cunt with ropes of sticky white cum. Toji seems to take notice of Sukuna and offers him a disgusting smirk, “Close the door, I’m busy here.”, he chuckled darkly.
Sukuna’s not sure why he listened, his body moved on autopilot to close the door, he stared at the door as if it wronged him and felt the veins bulging over his neck and forehead. “No way…there’s no way she would’ve taken on anyone else. I’m her mate, her fated Alpha. I’m gonna make her pay for this.”, he growled to himself.
Despite the music blaring downstairs Sukuna’s ears caught the sound of something he’d almost forgotten, your purr. Just on the other side of the door you were purring to Toji and it made Sukuna sick to his core. You wouldn’t get away with this, no way he’d let you!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A/n: Not dead y’all, just severely unmotivated and struggling with mental health but hopefully you all like this story line I thought up.
Summ. History repeats itself, he’s too far away to save you from the trash beast’s hit! Why’d you faint mid battle, what’s going on with you? You have to tell him what’s going on!
Another pile of trash collapses to the ground, another beast down and just a few more in the pack to destroy. Enjin scans the active combat field from atop the beast’s corpse and hums in amusement. All the young cleaners are doing great as usual and the older cleaners aren’t letting the younglings beat them so easily. Another easy job for the two teams, Enjin can’t help but whistle at the devastating beauty of his precious fiancée. You take one beast down without breaking a sweat when another begins charging at you and it’s at that moment that Enjin notices something go wrong. Team Akuta and Team Child, a dangerous and wild combination for a trash beast mission if we’re being frank. Everything was going fine, this swarm of trash beasts was an easy enough mission so why? Why’re you fainting right now? Why is Enjin just standing there like an idiot while you faint and lose your vital instrument, “(Y/n) no!”, Enjin’s voice echoes across the battlefield. For a moment he believes he’s lost you until he notices a flash of red and white races towards you. The trash beast hits its mark kicking up a storm of finely crushed trash dust, Zanka launches Riyo up into the air for one more swift attack with her Ripper until the trash beast falls dead. Enjin rushes to the last spot where he’d seen you and several meters away he finds Rudo holding onto your unconscious body, he winces in pain but lets out a relieved sigh since he made it in time to save you.
“Rudo!”
“We’re okay, I took the hit but it’s nothing critical.”, Rudo quickly explained himself carefully sitting up.
You stir awake and immediately panic once you realize you fainted mid combat, you look around in a haze and notice Rudo holding you close. He winces again while you shift in his arms and begin to fuss over him, “Shit not again. Are okay? Are you hurt? Is there blood?”, you begin to spiral already reactivating your vital instrument to heal his injuries.
The rest of team Child and Akuta arrive to see you fussing over Rudo, the young Cleaner begs you to stop and settle down. You just fainted for an unknown reason and now you’re over exerting yourself.
“(Y/n) what happened? You fainted, you completely fainted mid combat and for what?”, Enjin hissed, he was angry at the situation not at you but still it didn’t change the fact that you could’ve died.
You mumbled something about a possible blood sugar issue but you honestly hadn’t been checked yet but now you had to. If you let one of your kids get hurt again because of this stupid issue you’d never forgive yourself. The beasts had been eliminated, the job was finished, everyone began to pack up to head back to HQ but Enjin insisted that you all head straight to Alice’s clinic. You stayed upfront with Enjin, keeping your eyes out the window so you wouldn’t be forced to face his worried eyes. The kids chattered in the back trying to ease the tension in the jeep, it made the drive a lot more bearable. Thankfully she wasn’t busy and August was even paying a visit so they were just shouting at each other when you all arrived. Enjin led you in with a possessive arm around your hips, “Yo Alice!”, he greeted gaining their attention.
“Not you again! What do ya want now?”, Alice barked loudly at you all.
Zanka groaned in annoyance opting to wait outside while the others waited for you to be seen. Alice sat you down and began a basic physical exam on you while listening to Enjin explain what had occurred during the mission.
“Your blood pressure is pretty low idiot? Got any strange symptoms?”, she inquired taking the BP cuff off your arm.
You pondered the question a bit, “Been having the fainting spells like mentioned, a bit of dizziness and some nosebleeds when I’m stressed.”, you admitted.
The pack of teens at the door all glared at you, the fainting spells were bad enough but now you had all these other problems that no one had noticed. A nervous smile pulled at your lips, excuses bubbling in your mind to try and appease your angry pack of children.
“When’s the last time you ran a full blood panel on yourself?”, Alice asked but she didn’t really care for the answer, she was already getting her sterile instruments ready to draw your blood samples.
You groaned in your seat and complained about it, “Enjin, take the kids home. They’re tired, trust me Alice isn’t letting me go anywhere until she’s got answers.”, you suggested.
His golden eyes flashed you an angry look but he knew you were right, “I’ll be back as soon as I drop them off, don’t go anywhere until we know what’s going on.”, he sighs pressing a kiss to your lips before heading out.
You smile and wave him goodbye, Alice quietly retrieves your sample and places a glass of juice in your hands since your skin grew pale from the draw. You drank it and laid back in the exam bed and waited, what exactly was happening to you? The results took a little over an hour to be processed, you fell asleep while waiting until Alice’s booming voice startled you awake.
“Alice you scared the shit outta me.”, you whined sitting up slowly.
She stared at you with strange eyes, curious about something that shouldn’t have been possible, “Wh-what?”
“We need to do an ultrasound.”, she ordered, dragging you into the next room.
“An ultraso- wait no way! You said it yourself my reproductive system was irreparable, I’m not supposed to be able-“
“Will you shut up! I know what I said but your hCG levels are too high to prove otherwise! Sit your ass on the table and lift up your shirt!”, Alice yelled at you, pointing to the table for you to sit while she prepped the machine.
For a moment you felt a small twinge of hope that maybe it was true but there was no way, you would’ve been able to tell by now right? Alice squeezed a cold gel onto your stomach and applied the wand to your stomach and searched inside for something. The breath caught in your throat, you shut your eyes unprepared to accept something you’ve dreamt of for years.
“There ya are, ya little shit!”, you could practically hear the smile seeping into her words once she’d found what she was looking for. Even so you kept your eyes shut until she called your name, she pointed to the screen and you looked to see a tiny little head and body growing inside of you. Your left hand move to cover your lips and muffle the shocked gasp that came out so raw. There was a baby inside of you, a forming baby inside of body that you believed was incapable of producing a child.
“Oh my god.”, your voice cracked seeing the little shadow in your womb.
Alice smiled at the screen, happy to be wrong for once, “Seems you’ve been busy.”, she teased.
Your face burned through your happy tears, you admit you’d been reckless with Enjin quite often but it was only because you both believed you couldn’t have a child. The baby was surprisingly big from what you could both see, Alice replaced the ultrasound probe with a Doppler, pressing it gently against your stomach. The steady beat of the baby’s heart echoed in the quiet room, it was real, the baby was alive with a healthy heart.
“H-How far along? The baby is pretty big isn’t it?”, you asked through your tears.
Alice stared at the screen for a moment trying to figure out a proper estimate for you, “I’d say at least 10-12 weeks, head and body have formed normally inside the uterus and despite what we originally thought your reproductive system doesn’t have any abnormal scarring that could cause any issues. Regardless it’s best to consider you a high risk case.”, Alice smiled wiping your stomach clean.
High risk, right don’t get too excited, you took a deep breath and wiped away your tears happy to know that for now everything was normal with your baby. Alice returned you to the waiting room and sat you down, pregnancy was affecting your blood pressure since you weren’t taking proper care of yourself. You hadn’t known but Alice yelled at you anyways about taking proper care of yourself. You were excited to tell Enjin the news, you wanted to call him to tell him but this would be best told face to face.
“Hey Wifey, I’m back, brought ya some food. Alice get anything back yet?”, Enjin returned casually with a bag in hand, his gold eyes met yours and he immediately knew that something was up.
“Enjin, come sit down with me.”, you smiled sweetly patting the bedside next to you, he did as told and sat next to you pressing a kiss to your lips as he sat down with you.
“Should I be worried?”, he chuckled playfully.
“I’m pregnant.”, you confessed.
Enjin’s chuckle died in his throat, the sentence sounded to unreal for him to process. His tattooed hand hesitantly reached for your stomach, golden eyes slowly darting between your own and your stomach.
“What?”
You smiled at his expression, “I’m pregnant, there’s a baby in here.”, you smiled cupping your hand over his.
“(Y/n) don’t play with me? Are you for real?”, his tone suddenly grew angry as if the shock of the situation wasn’t something he could accept.
You nodded your head fiercely, “I heard the heartbeat, I saw them move inside me. Enjin I’m pregnant with your baby.”
Enjin stood up and stepped back from you, his hand moving to cover his quivering lips. He began pacing, trying to keep himself busy anyway he could, “How long?”, his voice cracked between words.
“Alice estimates I’m 10-12 weeks along, they have little hands and feet already. Are…are you happy about it?”, you wondered, unable to tell by his reaction.
Enjin seemed to be processing something in his mind, golden eyes began to shimmer with the flood of tears that began to spill down his face. “I-I knocked you up…th-that night that I was stuck in my head. It stuck…it stuck. I finally made you a mommy.”, Enjin sobbed, falling to his knees out of pure joy.
You giggled at his reaction and made your way to his side, “Thank you Jin, we finally did it.”, you smiled pulling him into your arms.
Enjin sniffled against your shoulder, holding you just as close. You were pregnant with his baby, oh he couldn’t be more excited than he was now. He peppered kisses all along your face, whispering sweet praises and blessings to you for the wonderful news. Eventually Alice returned and discussed your bloodwork and the next steps considering that you were still a high risk pregnancy. Enjin’s tears dried up once he realized how serious things could get for you going forward. Night soon fell over the Ground but Enjin insisted that you both go home, he helped you get into the jeep and thanked Alice for her help, paying her extra for taking care of you. The drive home was mostly silent, the adrenaline of the whole situation finally settling over the two of you.
“(Y/n)…you’re gonna have to pull yourself off missions for a while.”, Enjin’s soft voice broke the silence.
You nodded in agreement, “I know Enjin, I’ll tell the Boss as soon as I see him. Things are gonna change and move around a lot in the near future.”
Enjin’s fingers interlaced with your own bringing your left hand up to his lips so he could place a tender kiss to your engagement ring.
“The love of my life is giving me a baby, I still can’t believe it.”, he chuckled.
You smiled at his words and reached for your blood collar to make a call, you called to Riyo, naturally her playful tone made you smile until you asked something of her. Until you were home you wouldn’t admit to what had been said at the doctors but you needed to let all of your old children know what was happening. You asked Riyo to gather the older children in your sewing room for the update and she happily obliged. Enjin let out a deep sigh, he knew it would be a lot of sudden change but he wanted to take every precaution he could to make sure you stayed healthy through this whole ordeal.
“I’ll get everyone ready, you two just come home safe. You more than Enjin.”, Riyo snickered.
“Hey!”, you laughed at Enjin’s reaction, until the call dropped.
You couldn’t wait to tell everyone the great news.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Soon enough you find yourself home and being stared down by several of the young Cleaners from both Team Akuta and Team Front, everyone looks anxious about your trip to the doctor.
“You’re not dying or anything right?”, Rudo blurts out carelessly.
The others turn to glare at him, Zanka’s already raising up his right fist to punch him but you stop him with one of your floating sewing needles. “I’m not dying Rudo, I’m okay. There’s gonna be a lot of changes going forward, I’m dropping from active combat for a very long time.”
Everyone tensed, Fu and Amo both immediately paled and began to panic. You calmed them down with a simple smile, “Let me finish before you all blow this out of proportion. Going forward I’ll be helping Eishia in the infirmary and August in the workshop. Zanka I’ll need you to take over as lead trainer until further notice.”, Zanka nodded his head immediately.
“Fu, sweet boy, I hope this is the only time I’ll ever have to give you an order but until I’m ready I need you and Hii to take over as the main combatant on Team Front.”, you smile softened with a look of guilt, you promised you’d never order anything of him but Fu didn’t seem to mind.
Fu nodded his head nervously, “I’m just a trainee but I’ll make you proud. I know you wouldn’t order me to do anything unless it was important, at least like this I can keep protecting Amo like she ordered me too.”
You smiled at his newfound confidence, “Amo, your training with Riyo and I will continue as normal but I’ll be pushing you much more.”, you warned.
Amo nodded her head, “Yes Mama, Amo will push herself even harder.”
That was all from you for now, Enjin cleared his throat with an awkward cough, “Akuta members I’ll be relying on you much more than before, there’ll be days I’m unable to lead missions and on those days Zanka I’m trusting you to take lead. Riyo, I know you can be ditsy at times but I’ll need you to carry some of the responsibility and burn some brain power for us. Rudo, I need ya to not be so scrappy and make (Y/n) worry so much. Eishia, I want you by (Y/n)’s side as much as you can be.”, the four members of Akuta nodded their heads in agreement.
You took a deep breath and asked everyone to sit down for the news, “I know it’s a lot of sudden change but it’s for a good reason. Alice found out why I was fainting and it’s mostly wonderful news.”, you beamed excitedly.
“Well get on with it, we’re all stressing here.”, Riyo teased.
You laughed softly to her sharp tongue, “I’m pregnant.”, you confessed.
The room fell eerily silent with their shock, nobody even dared to breathe and several of them focused their eyes on your stomach. Amo was the first to react, she began to wail, she fell to her knees and sobbed so hard her body shook. Everyone else fell from their trances one by one once she’d knocked them back into reality.
“Mama’s gonna be a mama for real now!”, Amo sobbed.
Riyo was the first to reach you, she wrapped her arms around your shoulders and hugged you tight. She was quiet unable to say anything but you could tell she was happy for you.
“Parents, crazy.”, Zanka chuckled moving in to hug you as well.
Fu moved closer to Enjin, although Enjin began to scowl Fu offered his praise to the soon to be father. One by one all of the teens embraced you, grateful to hear such wonderful news. Rudo was the last to join the celebration, something dark inside of him was keeping him put.
“Rudo?”, you called out to him.
His ruby eyes moved up to meet your own, he looked pained for some reason, “S-Sorry…I’m happy for you it’s just…what about your injury?”, he mumbled.
It was a valid question that the others hadn’t thought to ask, all eyes were once again on you. “It’s a high risk pregnancy, that’s why I’m taking all precautions I can now. It’ll be tough on me but I’m sure everything will work out, I’m just as scared as all of you but I know I’ll be okay.”, you confessed.
Rudo’s eyes widened, of course he expected such a mature response from you. You were relying on everyone here so he would do his part in ensuring you were cared for, he rushed up to you and hugged you tight just like everyone before him. A loud thumping sounded from outside your sewing room, rushed footsteps from the sound of it, you all turned your attention to the door where Eishia stood happily crying tears of joy. Your eyes widened in horror noticing her fingers against her blood choker, “You didn’t Eishia!”, you hissed realizing who was rushing in.
The door slammed open rattling the walls upon August’s arrival, he panted desperately for breath, heaving over while his lungs burned for oxygen.
“T-Teach! Teach is it true, are you really carrying a lil mini you inside?”, he shouted.
“Ayup.”, you sighed knowing he’d tell everyone within the hour.
August beamed with a satisfied smile and rushed up to you to place a small bag in your lap, you opened it and inside was a baby onesie, a pale yellow onesie that looked surprisingly new.
“Wait did you ma-“
“I get to keep my promise now, a miracle happened so now I get to make your baby’s entire wardrobe.”, August cackled rushing out just as quickly as he arrived.
“August I thought you were joking!”, you groaned, already aware that your words hadn’t reached him.
Enjin chuckled, “Well that’s one way to get the word out.”
You turned and glared at him, he was right, soon enough everyone had gathered down in the mess hall to celebrate your announcement. Everyone held you tightly, they were all absolutely delighted for the both of you. Music blasted throughout the building, delicious food all around for everyone to share, and in the middle of it all was you. Glowing with joy, Enjin stood against the wall watching you smile and celebrate the news with all of your friends. It was the happiest he’d ever seen you and he was grateful that his wish had come true.
“I’ll do everything I can to make this work sweetheart.”, he promised. You were pregnant and no matter what, he’d do everything in his power to make sure you both made it out of this healthy and alive.
Pairing: Enjin x Fem! Den Mother! Reader, Fem! Den Mother! Reader x Various (Platonically)
Sum. He saw, Rudo saw first hand what uncontrolled murderous rage looked like first hand through the very woman he’d grown to love as a mother. Unable to face him you save his life by sending him away before he can be captured by raiders. What’s happening to you? How could you lose and be caught so easily? Why is your past coming back to remind you of your sins?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The warm taste of iron coats your tongue, the top layer of skin has been bitten off your thumb in your quiet fit of rage. You fainted in the middle of combat, you were captured by raiders, and worst of all Rudo saw a side of you that you never wanted him to see. Why did you faint? Why did you lash out the moment the ambush began? What is wrong with you, the cold murderous look in your glowing (e/c) eyes could rival Riyo’s as the men outside of your cell continue to stare you down.
“What good is this old bat? You sure the seller actually wants this lady?”, one of them huffed.
“Better leave your hands alone, can’t handle your weapon when the time eventually comes for you to be sold.”, another chuckled noticing your cold eyes move to him.
You’ve become hyper focused on the man’s face, you’re pissed and thankfully punching things was always a good outlet for your rage. Before any of them can react you’ve appeared before them, driving your fist right into the man’s nose knocking him out cold through the bars of the cell. The others are far too slow to react and cower back in fear from your speed and strength, “I remembered you. You stripped one of my girl’s of her clothes last time you kidnapped the kids. Guess I finally got my revenge for her.”, you chuckled darkly, backing away again as your vision began to blur.
Light headed again, must’ve been from moving to fast, what a joke. You are Team Front’s strongest combatant when did you become this weak?
“By this time tomorrow you’ll be sold off to some flesh trader and no one will even care you’re gone, something to think about while you rot in there.”, one of the men hissed, “Get his dumbass outta here and forget her meal for the night! No point sharing resources with the merchandise.”
The men eventually disappeared leaving you alone in the cold cell, you returned to biting your finger tip in rage. The terrified look in Rudo’s eyes when he saw you ruthlessly attack the raider trying to snatch him still played so vividly in your mind. He was scared, startled to know that you could actually hold such grotesque rage inside of you. You chuckled darkly while pulling your legs close to your chest, “I haven’t seen that look since my mother was killed. That was such a long time ago that I almost forgot about it.”
A single tear ran down your cheek, the memories of that fateful night replaying in your head. The screams and cries of your mother and older siblings, the smell of the burning flames destroying the only home you ever knew, but through it all you remembered the way your mother’s hairpin rolled towards you after she failed to protect you and how it activated in response to your anima and sadly that look in her eyes. The terror of her child being capable of killing someone before her very eyes before she passed away from her injuries. That same terror was in Rudo’s sweet ruby red eyes when he saw you fight for him today and it made you nauseous.
“Guess I’m still the same old monster Semiu found all those years ago.”, you sighed, sensing your vital instrument flying back towards you.
You were exhausted, both physically and mentally, from this whole ordeal. Once your sewing needle was back in your hands you could easily escape this horrid place but how would you face Rudo? Surely he told Enjin about what you did and he’s probably broiling with rage about the situation. You were cautious of your surroundings but you were tired, so very tired and you couldn’t quite understand why.
“Maybe I need to start eating more? These weak spells are getting in the way a lot.”, you groaned.
You opened your eyes once more, the (f/c) glow of them growing brighter with each passing second, “Took you long enough Sharps.”, you hummed finding your sewing needle floating in the air in front of you.
It fell to the ground just in front of your feet, you hummed in amusement and placed the pin back into your hair. Despite still feeling off it was time to get out of here, the gentle rattle of the keys in your hand echoed in the empty dungeon. If those idiots had been smart they would’ve realized that you’d plucked the keys off the guy you’d knocked out cold. You opened the door and walked out like nothing, there were guards posted everywhere but a quick toss of something heavy in a random direction was a good enough distraction for the worthless lot. You snuck out the back while they were distracted and knocked out several of the guards outside with your hairpin stabbing into several pressure points to immobilize them.
“See ya never idiots.”, you hummed.
You were smart to take a mask with you, they’d brought you to a no man’s land zone and without proper gear you would’ve died within hours. Your hand slowly reached up to your choker ready to call home but once again you hesitated, the flash of Rudo’s terrified eyes made you rethink your plan.
“What do I do when I get home?”, you sighed.
You didn’t even know where you were exactly, what’s the point in calling for help? You activated your Sharps once more, memorizing the flight pattern it’d taken to get back to you from HQ, it’s a far walk but if you could get to a safe zone you could call for a pick up from there. Yeah that what you’d have to do, you scattered Sharps into hundreds of small floating sewing needles until it formed into a board of sorts.
“I don’t have enough energy to make it home, but I can make it to the nearby city and call for help from there. Sharps, lead the way.”, you whispered, taking off into the night sky back to safety.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“How’s he doing?”, Zanka whispered softly to his red haired teammate.
“Never fell asleep last night, he’s been pacing and muttering to himself all night.”, Riyo confessed, emerald eyes locked onto the youngest member of Team Akuta, “He’s anxious about Mum, you hear what happened yesterday?”
Zanka shot her a curious look, he was out on a mission with Team Child yesterday and hadn’t heard about anything that had occurred, “Rudo and (Y/n), were out at the market doing some shopping when they got jumped by raiders. Mum fought them off and sent Rudo straight back home with Sharps. Her vital instrument set him down out front and flew off somewhere and hasn’t been seen since.”
“Why hasn’t a rescue team been dispatched? Mom can’t do much without her vital instrument wha-“, the front door to HQ opened and an excited screech from downstairs alerted the teens to your arrival.
Rudo was the first to move, within the blink of an eye he was already gone. Riyo and Zanka followed needing the confirmation that you were indeed home, sure enough you were standing tall right in the middle of the lobby squeezing Guita and Dear in a tight embrace. Rudo hovered nearby, as if hesitating, you noticed him and smiled softly understanding that he couldn’t face you quite just yet.
“I’m glad you’re safe Pup, sorry if I scared you.”, you whispered to him.
Rudo seemed to relax the moment you spoke to him with that sweet loving voice of yours, he lunged into your arms, hugging you tight and nuzzling his head into your chest.
“I’m sorry for freaking out, you got hurt because of me I’m so sorry.”, Rudo apologized holding you close.
You softened above him and hugged him even tighter, “I would take a hundred beatings if it meant you’d be safe, I had to get you out of there.”
Zanka and Riyo made their way up to you, quickly gaining your attention, while you comforted Rudo they inspected your injuries. Small abrasions to your arms and legs, swelling to your left cheek, strangulation marks around your neck, and the dried blood at the tip of your right thumb. Minor injuries that you wouldn’t allow them to help with but for now that didn’t matter, “We’re gonna get some food in ya and get you into bed, you need your energy back so you can heal yourself.”, Zanka basically ordered, he knew you’d be to stubborn to listen otherwise.
“Whatever you say Captain.”, you teased, saluting to him playfully.
Zanka bristled at the strange nickname and left with a loud click of his tongue, Riyo giggled at his flustered expression and hummed along as she followed. “Let’s go eat Rudy Boy, I’m exhausted.”, you sighed.
Rudo’s grip on you loosened up, he looked up at you with emotional eyes before ultimately letting you go. “Go ahead, I already ate dinner. I’ll come check on you before I go to sleep.”, he promised.
You could tell he was lying but you wouldn’t push it for now, apart of him was scared of you and you weren’t foolish enough not to notice it. You pressed a small peck to his forehead before heading down to the cafeteria to eat. Enjin arrived home early from his mission once Gris had informed him you’d been found safe and sound, Rudo was waiting for him there with a strange look, “Yo we need to talk.”
Enjin’s eyes seemed to shrink into a curious look, he wanted to rush and see you but obviously something was bugging Rudo. The two of them headed up to the rooftop of the building to talk, Enjin quietly lit a cigarette and took one deep puff before asking Rudo what it was he wanted.
“What’s on your mind kid?”
“Did you know about that rage (Y/n) has inside?”, Rudo asked, standing a few feet away from his mentor since he hated the smell of cigarettes.
Enjin shot him a sharp look, “She doesn’t show it often, it’s like a taboo secret of hers. Did you get to see it?”
Rudo nodded his head slowly, “We got jumped by raiders, they were trying to catch me but (Y/n)’s switch flipped and she took out so many of them. She just kept going until her fists were covered in blood, eventually she remembered I was there and I think…I think I hurt her when she saw my face.”
“You were scared of her huh?”, Enjin sighed.
“I was. She looked like she was in pain once she realized what she’d done, she used her vital instrument to carry me away from the fight and left herself there until I was home. She got captured because of me, she got hurt because of me, she got mad because of me.”, Rudo blamed himself for everything that had happened.
Enjin jabbed the tip of his umbrella right into Rudo’s side making the young teen wince and jump away, “Hey what was that for?”
Enjin took one more hit from his cigarette and tossed it aside, “It’s not my story to tell, but (Y/n) protects all of you because she sees herself in all of you. (Y/n) holds in her rage and negative emotions because if she can’t force a smile and be happy then who else would. Everyone gravitates to her because she understands pain, grief, anger, (Y/n) has experienced so much and because of that she doesn’t want others to go through what she already has. (Y/n) is a sorcerer, her vital instrument belonged to her mama before her family was brutally murdered by Raiders. She lost everything that night which is why she built a new family here with us. When she was brought on you almost couldn’t recognize her, she was a shadow, cold and distant and miserable. She protected herself from the world with walls so tall that breaking through seemed impossible, and it was until she started meeting the rest of the kids.”
Rudo’s heart ached hearing your story, sure it wasn’t much but it was enough for him to understand this grief you had. You weren’t some blood thirsty attacker, you were a mother trying to protect her kid.
“(Y/n)’s like a tiger in a sense, easily camouflaged, elusive but extremely powerful, and selflessly protective of her cubs until her dying breath. That’s one of the reasons I love her so damn much, can’t wait to marry her.”, Enjin sighed dreamily.
Rudo wanted to gag at the lovesick image of his team leader but his words struck a nerve in his heart. A tigress protecting her cubs until her dying breath, yeah, yeah that’s exactly who you are. Rudo let out a shaky breath and decided to swallow his fears and go check on you again, “Thanks Enjin, also your cigarette is burning Delmon’s plant, if you don’t put it out I’m telling mom.”, Rudo smirked running away before Enjin could stop him.
Rudo rushed down to check on you, Riyo let him know you were in your room already. You were standing just outside your room wishing Fu and Amo good night when Rudo arrived. He launched right into your arms and hugged you tight once more, “Thank you for protecting me, I love you.”
His words melted right into your skin, your insecurities from earlier washed away hearing his sincere words. You’d both be okay, it wasn’t how things were supposed to go but you would both recover and be okay. You thanked Rudo for his kind words and pressed a soft peck to the crown of his head and wished him goodnight. He smiled at you and did the same before taking his leave, you scampered back into your room and closed the door leaning back against it while your smile melted into a sharp murderous look.
“I’ve gotta figure out why I fainted and find out who gave up our location. I’m not letting my kids get hurt again.”, you growled.
(Y/n) is naturally stiff from sleeping in the lumpy old Ramshakle beds, back aches are a constant problem they face when not trying to control Grim or protect the school from an overblot incident. Thankfully there is one person who is gracious enough to lend you a helping hand with this problem. Lilia had dragged Malleus down to eat with the common folk during lunch, everyone chatted about their classes and day waiting for (Y/n) to arrive. Riddle had carefully snatched the last piece of strawberry tart for you to have, Kalim had brought you a bountiful plate of all your favorites, all they needed was you.
“Ah there you are! (Y/n), where’ve you been? Lunch is almost over.”, Cater teased noticing you enter the cafeteria.
You looked miserable, even Grim seemed a bit concerned about your well being.
“Mal can I bother you for a hug?”, you sighed extending your arms for him.
The young prince’s eyes shimmered with delight from you calling out to him, he stood tall and filled your arms just as Grim jumped down from you. While the other students at the table fumed with jealousy a sudden loud cracking sound silenced the room. You went limp in his arms sending several of your friends into a panic, “Draconia what have you done? Let (Y/n) go no-“, before Riddle could finish reprimanding his fellow House Warden he noticed your left hand move up to pat Malleus’ shoulder.
“Thank you very much Tsunotarō, I really needed that.”, you hummed in delight.
The tall raven haired prince smiled and placed you back down on your feet, the others watched on in terrified silence while you made several more sharp turns to pop the rest of your aching bones. You sat next to Deuce and Ace like nothing had happened and began to eat, the others glared daggers into you until you finally noticed, “What?”, you asked curiously.
“What part of you broke? Are you okay?”, Deuce inquired in a worried tone.
“Oh sorry, my back really needed to get popped and Malleus gives the best hugs when it comes to popping my back so I ask him for help. I’ve been in a lot of back pain recently but I don’t want to be such a bother to the school nurse.”, you confessed, fighting off Grim from your hamburg steak.
The others all shared a curious look with each other before ultimately deciding to buy you a new bed, you argued of course but nobody ever wanted to hear such a heinous noise come from your body ever again. If they thought that was bad they should hear the way you pop when Floyd squeezes you.
Ive been showing my bestie your den mother fics and she asked do you think tamsy would target her because of how much rudo loves her as his mother 🤔
Oh yeah he def would! Tamsy would do it to drive Rudo over the edge and if I ever wrote this scenario she wouldn’t be coming back so it’s never happening 😭😭😭😭😭😭
Summ. Slowly but surely things are starting to get better between you two, you’re slowly regaining your trust in him and he’s learning to communicate better with you. A new Kaiju threat emerges and sadly you may be the only one who can handle this mission, can he handle watching you return to the line of fire again?
“Daddy wake up!”
A heavy weight knocks the air out of Soshiro’s chest when he’s rudely awaken, he groans, opening his violet red eyes to look up at a little girl with the same hair as him.
“Tsu, honey, don’t jump on daddy like that, you could kill someone like that.”, Soshiro lazily scolded his daughter sitting up to stretch the sleep from his tired body.
Tsugumi grins at him while rushing to the bedroom door, “Maybe you shouldn’t be so weak.”, she teased running out before Soshiro could respond.
His lip twitched into an angry grin, yeah he’d definitely get back at her for that. He stood tall and stretched his arms up into the air, he’d slept over last night. You’d prepared the guest room for him and allowed him to stay over, the joy he felt was almost enough to keep him up all night. Things have slowly been getting better between you two, therapy has done wonders for you and Soshiro decided to follow in your footsteps to deal with his own issues. The delicious smell of breakfast filled the air of the home, a gentle tune was being hummed from the kitchen and Soshiro immediately recognized that it was you. You were toiling away at the stove preparing breakfast in your cute little (f/c) apron he’d bought for you, you looked perfect just as you were. Maybe it was the sleep still in his system but Soshiro found himself slowly creeping up to your side, his left hand reached to gently hold your hip and his lips pressed a tender kiss to your cheek, “Morning gorgeous.”, he whispered against your ear.
You turned to him, face flushed red from the sudden kiss, “What was that about?”, you asked sheepishly.
You saw him physically processing your words, again his mind was still hazy with sleep until it seemed to reset itself and realize what he’d done.
“C-Crap sorry, didn’t mean to make you uncomfortable. Y-You just looked so pretty, old habit.”, he rambled an excuse, it’s not like you’d disliked it, honestly you were just surprised by his sudden boldness.
“Ooooooooh~ Daddy kissed mommy.”, Tsugumi giggled from her seat at the table.
Soshiro quickly shot her a sharp look, red tinting his cheeks from embarrassment, “Tsu hush.”
“Go sit down before I hit you with a frying pan.”, you warned, turning away to hide your flushed face.
Soshiro pouted in defeat but did as told, he sat at the table next to Tsugumi, helping her clean up her crayons and drawings for breakfast to be set. You served them both before making your own plate, just as you were walking back to the table your phone began ringing in your apron pocket. You set your drink down and answered the call, it was Gen.
“Morning Captain Narumi, to what do I owe the pleasure?”, you hummed playfully believing it was just a normal casual call.
Concern flashed across Soshiro’s face once he noticed your warm expression change, he stood up and walked over to you once he noticed your skin beginning to pale. “I’ll be in right away, just give me time to suit up and pack up No. 11.”
Soshiro froze hearing those words leave your mouth, the call ended leaving you a bit frazzled. “What’s going on? Is everything okay?”, he asked cautiously.
“Emergency, I need to bring Kaiju no.11 in to base for a mission. New Kaiju threat that’s utilizing the ocean in the 1st Division territory to escape neutralization.”, you explained quietly, Soshiro could see you trembling in your own skin.
His mind spiraled with worry, things were just starting to go right for you two and now this? He took a deep breath and reached to cup your cheeks in his palms, “Everything’s gonna be fine, I’ll go with you. Just because you’re taking the suit in doesn’t mean you’ll have to go out on the field. It’ll be fine.”
You nod your head in agreement, “Vice Captain Shinomiya is a match for bonding to the suit. She’ll be deployed with it as long as the suit cooperates with her.”, you explained quietly.
You couldn’t panic, not right now, not in front of him. You were scared about seeing the suit reject someone, the beast that lingered inside was merciless and cruel, yet it was the only water dwelling suit that the Defense Force had. For now you all quietly focused on breakfast, Soshiro took Tsugumi to get her dressed and ready for the trip while you packed up the number suit in your home laboratory.
“Old friend I beg of you, please just work this one time. If not for me then for Kikoru, this is your last chance or you’ll be decommissioned.”, you confessed weakly, despite the nervousness you felt you unhooked the suit from the machinery and packed it away into a specialized case for the drive.
You looked miserable the whole drive over, you were quiet and distracted by the suffocating worry of the whole situation. Soshiro quietly offered you his hand for comfort, you sighed and took it, interlacing your gloved fingers with his. “Thank you Hiro.”, you whispered softly, closing your eyes to try and calm your nerves.
“It’ll be okay, we’ll both be there for you. Let’s just see how things go. Shinomiya is a great officer, I’m sure she’ll be able to tame the suit in no time.”, he hummed quietly.
You nodded in agreement but Soshiro could feel you trembling in his hand, ‘be supportive, separate yourself from work and focus on your family as a normal man’ that’s what his therapist told him to work on and right now was a great opportunity to show that he could. He gave your hand another firm squeeze before completely returning his attention to the road. Eventually your small family unit arrived at the Ariake base, you took Tsugumi into your arms while Soshiro carried the suit case in, your mind shifted into work mode immediately. Captain Narumi and Vice Captain Shinomiya were both already down in Operations when you all arrived.
“So what kind of Kaiju are we dealing with?”, you asked setting Tsugumi down to put on your lab coat.
Gen tried to argue with Soshiro being present but your fingers dug into his cheeks turning his face to you, the deathly glare you gave him silenced his egotistical rant and made him refocus on the task at hand, “Tell me what we’re dealing with or I swear I will ruin your whole day.”, you warned, your eyes cold and calculating as you glared at him.
Gen instantly deflated and turned his attention back to the screens, the video footage of the new Kaiju. A huge torpedo shaped creature with what looked like a shark fin on its back breached the water slamming onto a nearby fishing boat, “What do we know about its fighting style?”, you asked already typing away at the computer.
“Ambush predator, likes fighting in deeper waters close to the open ocean and capsizing boats that stray to far out. From what we’ve seen it can’t walk on land.”, Gen quickly explained, forwarding the videos of recent combat clips to the screen. Aerial attacks aren’t consistent enough to cause any serious damage to the creature and sending personnel into the water in a suicide mission if attempted. It attacks then vanishes into the deep before anyone can reach it.
You moved to your tablet uploading the video footage into the suit so it’d recognize the pattern it’d be fighting, “I need the No. 11 suit prepped for a trial run, Vice Captain Shinomiya will attempt to synchronize with the suit. Ensure the coolant system on the suit in working and I want full specs at all time while she’s in trial.”, you ordered, your team following exactly what you said.
Kikoru smiled in amusement and removed her jacket ready to head into the observation room for the trial, “My compatibility rate is 76%, I’ll tame that bastard suit without fail just you watch.”, she smiled ready for a fight.
“(Y/n), how can I help?”
You flinched at the soft call of your name before turning back to see Soshiro standing behind you, “Sorry forgot you were here for a second.”, you sighed. Soshiro took his place next to you and started watching over the suit’s vitals while you pulled up old vital records from your time with the suit.
Gen smiled in amusement noticing the way you two worked together, never did he think he’d ever see you allowing Soshiro to get so close to you. Tsugumi stayed put by your desk, knowing better than to get in your way when you’re working.
“How has your mama been at home Squirt?”, Gen asked quietly.
Tsugumi smiled at him, turning her gaze back to her parents, “Mommy’s smiling more.”, she confessed.
Gen’s eyes softened, he’d admit he hated Soshiro but if he was helping you smile again then who was Gen to get in the way of you two. Kikoru was dawned with the No. 11’s armor over her arms, the sensors were already attached to the suits connecting ports for proper visuals between the officer and the kaiju cells residing within the cyan colored plates.
“Vice Captain commence synchronization, in 3, 2, 1.”, your voice echoed through the speakers in the room. The plates of the suit began to glow along with the rest of Kikoru’s body as she activated her combat power.
Her vitals were stable for now, she was in control of the suit, “It’s working.”, you whispered.
Soshiro seemed to notice the disappointment in your tone, he knew how much you wished that was you down there. You were an amazing operation’s officer but deep down he knew you were an even greater combatant officer.
“Current maximum output 53%.”, you announced.
Kikoru huffed in annoyance, she could go higher but the partial suit could probably only handle so much. Gen whistled in amusement, “Well looks like we’ll finally have an edge on this stupid monster, everyone suit up, we’ve got some hunting to do.”, Gen turned to you, noticing your miserable expression and gently bumped his fist against your head, “Don’t get mopey, you may not have been able to wear it but at least you can take care of it. You’ll be heading out with us to watch over the suit and ensure it doesn’t kill our Vice Captain.”
The room slowly emptied out except for a few of your operation officers, you stayed behind watching the screen in front of your envious eyes. You took a shaky breath while staring at the comparison screen of your vitals, synchronization with Officer (L/n) 72% compared to a mere 53%. If things had been different than you would’ve been out there a long time ago.
“Hey-“, Soshiro called for you gently, you turned to face him and he moved to gently brush away a stray tear from your eye, “It’s okay, you’ve done a great job.”
“Sorry…I’m kind of a mess.”, you laughed trying to hide your pain behind a smile again.
Soshiro opened his eyes to take a good look at you, you couldn’t tell what he was thinking but he knew exactly what was crossing your mind. “You’ll always be one of the greatest officers the Third Division has ever had, your strength was inspirational and I hope you pass that on to our daughter. You need to stay alive to do that though, I know it sucks but I’m glad you’re here with us.”, his words were sincere, his smile changing into something mischievous, “Besides I like you when you’re messy.”
“Soshiro!”, you squeaked in embarrassment, smacking his arm halfheartedly as he laughed at your flustered expression.
You let out a groan deciding on whether to throw your boot at him or not, he chuckled and scooped Tsugumi onto his shoulders before leaving the room with one more playful wink towards you. You rolled your eyes in annoyance but found yourself smiling, it was time to let go of something that would never happen, at least you had your small family and no amount of combat time or fame could take that away from you.
“Better load up for the flight.”, you spoke to yourself, finally turning off the screen in front of you.
Soshiro and Tsugumi stayed behind while the helicopter lifted off, they’d wished you goodbye and hoped for your safe return. The two of them would be returning to the Tachikawa Base for now, Soshiro was in charge of training the recruits today so he couldn’t afford to be late. While the helicopter flew over the pacific ocean just outside the Tokyo Bay where most of the attacks had been occurring, a dummy ship had been sent out as bait to lure the creature out. It was a waiting game for now, but soon Kaiju no.11 would be deployed for the first time ever since the No. 9 incident all those years ago.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“You’re way too slow! A Kaiju could take you out with one swipe if you hesitate, focus on the threat in front of you not what’s in your head!”, Soshiro’s voice echoed across the training field.
Mock battles with weaker yoju were being conducted with the older officers watching on the sidelines in case of emergencies. Despite his tone several of the older officers noticed that something had changed in their Vice Captain. He seemed more relaxed, calmer even.
“Hey stranger.”
Soshiro tensed hearing that voice, “Kafka, been a while since I’ve seen you.”
The raven haired man chuckled at that statement, “Seems you’ve been doing pretty well for yourself, (Y/n)’s been a lot calmer recently.”
Soshiro nodded recalling how easily you smiled nowadays, “Therapy’s been doing wonders for her, hasn’t been drinking as much either to hide the pain.”
“Kikoru mentioned you were at Ariake earlier this morning, anything we should be worried about?”, Kafka pressed for answers.
Soshiro gritted his teeth in annoyance, “Everything’s fine, Captain Narumi called for the No. 11 suit to be moved to base for a mission, (Y/n) took it in and was dispatched with the group for observation. Anything else you wanna stick ya nose in?”, Soshiro growled.
Kafka hummed in amusement, seeing this side of the Vice Captain was very rare but amusing to say the least. Kafka was your best friend, of course he was still wary of your heart near Soshiro. The effort was being made between you two but Kafka had seen you at rock bottom and feared the smallest inconvenience would send you right back to that deep dark place where he found you.
“My apologies, I didn’t mean to bother you on such personal matters. Hopefully the mission goes well and everyone makes it bac-“ “Vice Captain!”
The two men were startled from the shout behind them, Okonogi came rushing up the stairs with urgent news. Her face was contorted into something between worry and disbelief, “Vice Captain, I know you asked for radio silence during training but Vice Captain Shinomiya is requesting your immediate attention through a private channel.”
Kafka turned to Okonogi with a worried expression, “Patch me through, right now Okonogi.”, Soshiro ordered.
Static crackled into Soshiro’s com-line before Kikoru’s voice filled his ear, “Don’t get mad, something happened.”
“What do you mean something happened? Why are you calling, you’re supposed to be in combat right now!”
“The suit rejected me right as I was about to be deployed. I would’ve died had (Y/n) not saved me.”
“She’s the operation leader with the most hands on experience with that suit, of course she’d sa- where is she?”
“The suit rejected me but for some reason the cells of the suit immediately attached to her. She’s currently in active combat with the No. 11 suit.”
“She’s what!”, Soshiro’s voice echoed across the training grounds, his eyes wide with panic, “How could you allow this to happen? N-No I’m heading over there right now! Okonogi get 10 ready for combat, Kafka I’m leaving you in charge of training! Somebody get me Captain Ashi-“
“Please settle down! By the time you get here it’ll already be over. She’s doing a great job, her max output is the highest it’s ever been and her synchronization with the suit is almost perfect.”, Kikoru quickly explained.
Soshiro stopped in his tracks, realistically she was right, you were almost two hours away he couldn’t make it even if he was fully suited up. Even so, it wasn’t enough to calm his worried heart.
“Shinomiya, let me tell you something, if the mother of my child dies today I will personally slaughter each and every one of you that went on this mission. Do you understand what I’m saying?”, his voice was cold and unforgiving, his words laced with a thick level of murderous threat she’d never heard from him before.
“I can assure you there’s no way that’ll happen, even so I’ll pass on the message. Captain Narumi is utilizing his foresight to watch her every move, please just have some faith in her.”
“Vice Captain please don’t threaten other leadership members over a personal attachment, if HQ hears about this you’ll be put on disciplinary action.”, Okonogi interrupted nervously, receiving his murderous glare before she backed away slowly in fear.
The tablet she was holding had the live stream video of the battle, despite her fear she handed it to him so he could watch. Kafka whistled softly behind him, smiling in amusement, “Guess I’ll be watching over training.”, he hummed.
Soshiro gritted his teeth but ultimately decided it was best to watch the combat footage even if he was trembling with fear. He hadn’t gone far, just far enough that nobody could see how devastated or anxious he was, his ruby eyes watched as the aquatic kaiju breached the water’s surface attempting to slam its body into your own. The suit gave you the ability to run across the water’s surface, the suit’s hydro kinetic powers formed a powerful geyser of water right under your feet shooting you up and over the Kaiju’s body allowing you the chance to fire several rounds along its side. The creature roared in pain splashing back down into the water heavily, “It’s trying to run, finish this Officer (L/n)!”, Gen’s voice echoed along the com-lines. You nodded softly, landing right back on top of the water, your body began glowing from your unleashed combat power synchronizing with the suit. Hydrokinesis was No. 11’s main ability, even so you’d never successfully synced with the suit before or trained with it. Your fighting was unpolished but Soshiro could recognize your focus from anywhere. The dorsal scales along your spine glowed all the way up to your neck as ocean water pushed the kaiju up into the air, normal bullets couldn’t pierce the thick hide of the beast but backed by hyper pressured water your shot would certainly meet its mark. The soles of your combat boots glowed just like the scales on your spine, keeping you hovering just above the water’s surface.
“Unleashed combat power, 94%.”
With the suits help you managed to keep the Kaiju stranded in the air just above a pillar of water. It was time to finish this.
“Fire.”, your voice whispered, aiming your shot right at the soft underbelly of the beast.
The bullet fired from your combat rifle soaring towards the kaiju’s belly while a hyper pressured jet of water followed behind it pushing it completely through the kaiju’s body until it emerged from the other side. A perfect killing blow, “Kaiju vitals have disappeared, a perfect shot right through its uniorgan. Honju successfully eliminated.”
Roars erupted through the tablet from the other officers watching over you from the helicopter. You panted for breath trying to settle your nerves, for a moment Soshiro almost believed he could breathe again but then the video footage caught you fainting. The suit’s powers gave out dropping you and the kaiju’s body right back into the water, the enormous monster caused a massive splash creating crashing waves the moment it hit. Water pushed out around it angrily until the ocean finally settled, ruby eyes hyper focused on the screen scanning it for any sign of you.
“(Y/n) come back up, please come back up.”, Soshiro begged softly, waiting for any sign of you.
“I’ve got her! Get a medic team ready, she’s not breathing!”, Gen’s voice rang across the speaker.
The helicopter’s camera panned out focusing on him in the water with your unconscious frame leaning against him, the evacuation team descended from the helicopter with a basket to help get you out of the water. Just like that the video stream ended, the tablet went black after the disconnection leaving Soshiro to wallow in his panic and fear.
“She wasn’t breathing, oh god no ple-“, before Soshiro could fully begin to panic his phone began ringing in his pocket.
The tablet dropped from his hands, he stumbled over himself fighting with his clothes just to find his phone. It was Gen, he answered quickly, “Don’t panic! She just overheated in her suit, she’s fine.”, Gen chuckled.
“What the hell were you thinking sending her out into combat?”, Soshiro hissed, there was no threat to his voice, his mind to busy stressing about you.
“The suit chose her, didn’t you see it? 94% unleash, with no prior training in that suit, it’s the highest she’s gone even compared to her time as a platoon leader of the Third.”
That much was true, in a basic combat suit you always staggered between 75 or 82%, but even so you could’ve died today. “I’m heading back to Ariake, I’m not believing a word you say until I see her.”, he confessed.
Gen chuckled telling him he’d just send you back to the Third via helicopter once you were more stable, “She’s fine Hoshina but if you really mean it just make sure you scold her a bit for worrying you.”, Gen teased.
The call ended just like that, Soshiro could finally breathe again knowing that you were okay. “That woman is gonna be the death of me.”, he whispered to himself.
He reached for Okonogi’s tablet and dusted it off, now that he knew you were okay he just felt anxious without you being near. At least he could be grateful that you made it out alive. He returned to training, paler than before but nobody dared comment on it. In a few short hours you’d be back at the Tachikawa base for the first time in a while, everybody would be excited to see you again but even so what would he say to you that didn’t sound like an officer scolding another?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Ariake Helicopter arrives closer to sunset, right on the landing pad just as the sun began setting over the horizon. You smiled softly, the ache in your bones after a mission feeling like an honorary achievement. You’re greeted by a rather pissy looking Soshiro, Tsugumi is nowhere to be found but you merely assume she’s with the rest of the officers of the Third. You hop out of the helicopter and open your mouth to apologize to him until your dragged right against his chest. For a moment he doesn’t say anything and you don’t either, he’s just holding you taking in the fact that you’re still alive, “I thought I lost you today.”, he mumbled against your skin.
A nervous smile pulled at your lips, you were definitely in for it now. Soshiro lets you go and steps back, eyes open and completely glowing with rage.
“You’ve got some nerve ya know that? Just because I gave you some praise doesn’t mean to put yourself in the line of fire! You could’ve been killed.”, he immediately begins reprimanding you.
“I know.”, you smirked seeing him practically fuming.
“Why do I have to find out from Shinomiya that you’re in active combat just to watch you faint and almost drown when I’m hours away from being able to help you! I’ve never felt so helpless before, what was I going to tell Tsugumi if you died today?”, he questions.
You sigh and lean your head against his chest to listen to his erratic heartbeat, “I’m not sorry but if it makes you feel better I’ll likely never be doing it again, maybe.”, you giggled softly, looking up at him and smiling at his furrowed brows.
“It ain’t funny. I could’ve lost ya today.”
Your heart flutters at his words, maybe he doesn’t realize it yet but he’s being quite bold with his words. You try not to take them to heart but deep down you know it’s already too late for you, you’re falling for him all over again.
“Yeah you’re right. Sorry, I’ll keep you in the loop next time, it was just a last minute decision and Gen didn’t want to lose the target again.”
Soshiro’s expression softened towards you, he couldn’t help but sigh with relief. Even if he was mad about you going into combat at least you made it back alive, “How’re you feeling now, after overheating?”, he asked quietly, ruby eyes now open to memorize the smile you had on your face right now.
“I’m so sore, everything aches.”, you confessed, with a simple shrug of your shoulders.
He smiles at you and promises that it’ll pass, you both head back down together and for once you realize you don’t feel nervous or anxious by his side. That’s surely improvement you tell yourself. Soshiro tries to lead you down to his office so you can rest but your grabbed by the arm and dragged into a nearby room, Soshiro quickly follows after you worried by the sudden abduction until he sees what’s going on. Mina is absolutely squeezing you in a deadly embrace and the rest of the Third Division are there cheering for your victory in the 11 suit.
“Congratulations Officer (L/n)!”
“(Y/n) you did amazing, I’m so proud of you!”
“You were so cool, we were all on the edge of our seats.”
The praise came from every direction, all your old platoon officers, all your friends, everyone that you cared about here were cheering for your accomplishment. Okonogi slowly pulled you from Captain Ashiro’s grip and pulled you into another hug, “A 94% unleash in a suit that once tried to kill you, you truly are a wonder to behold you know that?”, she giggled.
You smiled at her, hugging her back just as tight, “Why’re you all here?”, you wondered, happy regardless of the reason.
Mina flashed a knowing look to her beloved Vice Captain and smiled, “We heard you were coming down from Ariake and naturally since you were originally a Third Division officer we thought it’d be a good idea to celebrate your victory with you today, it was all Soshiro’s idea.”, Mina explained.
His eyes widened again, she was lying, why would they try to throw him under the bus like that? You were dragged to the mess hall where Kafka was playing with Tsugumi around the decorated tables. The moment your dear friend saw you he launched at you for a bear hug and squeezed you tight.
“You were amazing out there today, but don’t ever scare me like that again!”, Kafka growled, setting you down and clapping his palms over the sides of your head to shake you for worrying him.
You laughed at his aggression which only irritated Kafka more, “You’re a cute jerk I hope you know I hate you almost 30% of the time.”, he groaned.
Soshiro could feel his face twitching with jealousy at Kafka’s casual flirting, “Oh and what about the other 70% of the time?”, you teased leaning towards Kafka playfully.
“I love you most of the time, someone has to.”
Tsugumi giggled at your shy smile, she’d grown up watching the two of you together like this. Soshiro on the other hand wasn’t so accepting, his body moved on its own and in the blink of an eye you were pulled back to his side by your hips and felt the warmth of his lips on your cheek once more.
“H-Hiro.”, you quietly gasped, it was a shock to have been suddenly kissed by him. Back when you two were together he was always hesitant to show affection in the eyes of his officers, he always reserved it for those quiet moments you shared together.
“I can assure you Kafka, I love her more than enough so your love ain’t needed.”, Soshiro smiled, the obvious twitch of annoyance pulling at the corner of his lip.
Kafka hummed in amusement at Soshiro with a fake smile, yeah he wasn’t completely convinced yet. Mina decided to break the tension between the two men, it was time to party and celebrate not fight over the honored guest of the night. She pulled you along to the middle of the room where the food was, leaving the two bachelors fighting over your heart in the dust. All your old friends took the time to catch up with you, sharing stories of their adventures and life experiences. You happily listened and shared when asked to, it was a moment of peace you weren’t aware you needed. Soshiro lingered nearby you with Tsugumi, trying to be part of your space, naturally you noticed so you decided to scoot closer to him.
“You okay?”, he asked quietly.
You nodded your head and leaned closer to him to press a soft kiss to his cheek, getting him back for the one he’d given you earlier. His eyes widened in surprise, scanning your own for a shred of insecurity or uncertainty but your eyes were clear. You had meant to give him that kiss just because you wanted to, Kafka appeared again already drunk and slammed two beer mugs between the two of you. He shouted for the officers to cheer for you and just like before the room erupted with chaotic roars and laughter.
“I can never get tired of this place.”, you sighed happily.
Soshiro smiled at you, his hands fiddling with the cold mug in front of him, “You could always come back.”, he proposed.
You turned to him and pondered the idea, “No I’m better off where I am, besides wouldn’t want our dearest Okonogi to be out of a job.”, you teased nudging his arm with your elbow.
Although it hurt to hear how easily you could dismiss his wish, Soshiro knew you are right. Always one to handle his alcohol well, he downed a mug of beer and smiled. “Well let’s party sweetheart.”, you smiled at him and nodded, downing your drink as well to match his pace. Just like that the majority of the third division celebrated your achievement until eventually the new day arrived.
Your alarm shocked you awake from your sleep, you jolted up and hissed from the painful ache in your head. Over drinking probably wasn’t the best idea you had but it was a party after all. You shook your head and scurried to the bathroom to clean yourself up, sure you were hungover but you had someone special coming over today.
“How did I get home? Is Tsugumi here?”, you wondered splashing cold water in your face before heading downstairs.
Tsugumi was awake in the living room watching her shows and Soshiro was making breakfast in the kitchen. He noticed you standing in the doorway confused and laughed at your messy appearance, “You’re definitely hung over.”, he snickered.
You rolled your eyes at him and sighed, “It’s gonna be a long day.”
“Why’s that?”
As if on cue the doorbell rang alerting you to the guests you’d been waiting for. Soshiro peeked from the doorway at your front door, eyes widening the moment they met a face painfully similar to his own. Soichiro smiled at you and squeezed you a tight hug, “If it isn’t my little water fairy! That mission was incredible, your control over the 11 suit was amazing, you should fight me and 12 one of these days.”, he cheered.
The snow haired swordsman quickly spots his little brother glaring daggers at him from the kitchen, “Hey there little bro, playing house with my future sister in law already?”, Soichiro teased noticing the red tint flashing at the tips of his brother’s ears.
You roll your eyes at Soichiro’s teasing and welcome the person you’d been waiting for, Sango arrived carrying her infant son in her arms.
“(Y/n).”
“Sango.”, you greet her with the same simplistic tone she’d offered you.
She bows to you before handing you little Sosuke, you happily accept the infant into your arms and smile at his gentle coos.
“I thank you for taking the time out of your day to watch him for us, had it not been for the long travel to Ariake I would’ve stayed home with him but my husband insists I go with him.”, Sango explains.
You nod with an understanding only a soldier could know, “It’s no trouble, I’m off today anyways and Tsugumi is rather fond of babies.”, you hum.
Sango is just about to say something else when she notices Soshiro making his way up to you, a look of indifference etched across his face. You follow her gaze and turn to look at him, “She asked me to babysit for the day like two weeks ago, stop eyeing her like a crushed bug on the windshield.”, you huffed pinching his cheek to draw his attention back to you.
“Last time you two were in a room she literally almost tore us apart with her failed stalking attempt, so sorry if I’m hostile about her being around you and Tsu.”, Soshiro grumbled, still glaring daggers at his sister-in-law.
“Feel free to ignore him.”, you smiled finally taking a seat on the couch with the baby.
Tsu quickly sat next to you, her eyes glowing with curiosity, “Mommy why’s he so small?”
“All babies start small like him, they grow big and tall with time. You were this little once upon a time.”, you smiled recalling her swaddled up in a hospital blanket when she was born.
Soshiro finds himself enchanted by how natural caring for the baby comes to you, you hold him so protectively yet with a tenderness he’s never once mastered. Soichiro notices his brother’s lovestruck gaze on you and smiles at him, he’s watching Soshiro fall in love with you all over again.
“Some women just have the gift to be mothers, (Y/n)’s been a natural since before Tsugumi. Of course she could easily handle another baby.”, Soichiro quietly whispers, watching Soshiro tense at his words.
Soichiro, being the ever opportunist man he was also had a proposition for you, “By the way (Y/n), since we’re all here, I had something I wanted to ask you. How would you like to be promoted to the Sixth Division’s new vice captain?”
Soshiro immediately turned to his brother in horror, how could he ask you something like that? Before he could open his mouth to argue you immediately responded, “Absolutely not.”
Soichiro chuckled, “Worth a shot, we’ll be back as soon as my meeting with HQ at the Ariake Base is finished, if you need anything call us.”, he hummed, placing a loving arm around his wife’s hips.
You waved the both of them goodbye as they left, still happily holding the baby who’d fallen asleep against your chest.
“You can breathe you know.”, you teased noticing Soshiro’s rigid posture.
He let out a shaky breath he hadn’t known he’d been holding in and turned to face you, “S-Sorry I just wasn’t expecting him to ask that. After yesterday I thought maybe you’d consider it.”, he confessed.
You smiled at him, patting the empty space on the couch next to you. He gladly accepted the offer and sat next to you quietly, he still seemed to have a lot to say but you wouldn’t push him if he wasn’t ready.
“I’m gonna be scouted by the other Division now that I can handle a suit, you know that.”, you spoke softly, letting your head fall back against the couch.
“I know, that’s what I’m scared of. What if you actually accept and leave? Your combat power is high enough to make you a Captain, why would you want to stay an operation’s leader when you could finally go back out on the field like you’ve wanted?”
You peeked a curious eye at him and smiled at his miserable expression, “I’ve got some people I feel like living for, can’t do that if I’m out on the field. Also my head hurts too much to think about being promoted.”, you giggled finally recalling that you were hung over.
Soshiro turned to look at you and grinned realizing the same thing from your facial expression, “Weakling.”, he teased with a snicker.
“I’ll beat you. Let’s eat, my brain’s gonna explode if I don’t get something in my stomach soon.”, you groaned, slowly standing up with the baby in your arms.
Tsugumi’s curious eyes watched her two parents getting along and it brought her immense joy but something was starting to sink into her sweet innocent brain. You were a natural with babies and her dad was like a protective knight watching over you. She sat at the kitchen table with the two of you, Soshiro insisting to hold Sosuke so you could eat. You happily denied him the chance, you’d mastered eating with one hand with a baby ages ago. Soshiro accepted his loss for now, you all peacefully shared a meal together but still something had silenced Tsugumi.
“Tsu, is something wrong?”, you asked.
She shook her head at first but ultimately she let it spill out, “Mommy can I have a baby brother or sister?”
Soshiro practically choked on his morning coffee upon hearing her innocent request, you tried to figure out how to break Tsugumi’s sweet little heart.
“Sweetheart, babies are special little gifts that take a lot of work and a lot of love to make. Maybe one day baby girl but not right now.”, you sighed.
Tsugumi pouted in annoyance, “Don’t you love Papa enough to make another baby?”, she huffed.
“That’s…that’s complicated. Papa doesn’t even live with us sweetheart.”, you laughed nervously and tried to backpedal.
“That wasn’t a no.”, Soshiro mumbled under his breath, earning a sharp look from you.
“Maybe in the future Tsugumi, but not right now.”, you sighed, hoping it’d be enough to hold her off. Tsugumi’s curious little eyes seemed to soften in defeat, ultimately she decided to accept your answer but not before saying one more little thing.
“If you won’t have a baby with Papa, you should have a baby with Uncle Kafka. They’d be cute and round like him.”, she pouted at her plate, completely oblivious to the shocked expressions of her parents.
Your skin grew hot with embarrassment while Soshiro’s eyes burned with a raging jealousy. It was an innocent idea in Tsu’s mind neither of you could blame her but you had to be reasonable about these things. You weren’t sure what was going on between you two yet and you didn’t want to ruin the coparenting relationship you had with him now but in the back of your mind the idea of being with Soshiro again did sound nice. The baby began stirring in your arms, “Looks like someone’s hungry.”, you hummed, getting up to warm a bottle for him.
“I’ll warm it up.”, Soshiro’s voice was distant as he spoke, you could see his eyebrows furrowed together in thought and his lips pulled down in a scowl.
You sat back down and watched him heat the bottle of formula at the stove, naturally you could tell he was upset about Tsugumi’s comment. You let out a defeated sigh and hoped it’d pass, eventually everyone had breakfast and you all got ready to head out for a family day together. You could tell Soshiro was still upset so you decided to ease his mood. Tsugumi ran to the car leaving you both alone, “Hey.”, you called out softly to him. He turned to you unprepared for what you were about to do, his frown melting the moment he felt the familiar warmth of your lips on his. Neither of you pulled away, for a moment everything was just like before. You slowly pulled away once you thought he’d be satisfied only to see his face painted red with an intense blush.
“If it counts for anything, I would like to have an another baby with you, especially now since we’re working on things.”, you confessed, carrying to baby to the car.
Soshiro was to stunned to speak, his mind was swirling but his heart was certainly happy to hear how you felt. He watched you with the carrying the baby to the car in his little car seat and Tsugumi waved to him yelling at him to hurry.
“I love you.”, he whispered to himself, the image of a brighter future searing into his mind of you and a completed family.
He’d say those words to you soon, he’d get down on his knee and propose to you like he should’ve done all those years ago, he’d bring you all home and grow old with you. Soon enough things would be perfect.
Summ. You’ve got a problem, a big one, Rudo and Amo have both come to you separately explaining that they wish to offer the other a very special Valentine’s Day gift. The problem, how do you help both without exposing the other in the process?
Enjin whistles through the halls, his feet carry him to the room of his beloved (Y/n) who he’s more than excited to see. The kids are decorating the building for the upcoming Valentine’s Day party and Enjin is just as excited to spoil you as his sweetheart.
The grinning blonde barges into your room with a huge grin greeting you with, “Morning Sugar Plum, whatcha think abo-babe why are you on the floor pouting?”
“I’m in deep shit.”, you whined rolling onto your stomach to hide your face in the floor.
Enjin chuckled and kneeled down next to you, a mischievous grin on his face as an idea brewed in his head. Large tattooed hands hovered over your sides ready to attack and tickle you senseless, “Don’t you dare.”, you warned knowing what Enjin was about to do despite being face down.
He grumbled under his breath and sighed in defeat, “Okay fine, so what’s got ya down in the dumps?”
“Valentine’s Day.”
The laugh that erupted from his chest couldn’t have been louder after hearing that, you loved the holiday so how come you were so grumbly about it?
“Sunshine you’re literally the master of the holiday, how can you be so upset about it?”, Enjin chuckled pressing for more information.
You turned to him and sighed, “Rudo and Amo came to ask me for help on gifts, turns out they’re both making it for each other not knowing that they both asked me for help. I don’t know how I’m going to juggle this.”, you confessed making Enjin’s heart skip a beat again at the situation.
It was something simple causing you so much turmoil, he chuckled and pulled you into his arms, “Baby you’re losing your head over the kids seriously? If it bothers ya so much then I’ll help you, I’m sure Rudo and I can work on a meaningful gift for Amo.”, chapped lips gently pressed tender kisses against your cheek to distract you from your mental turmoil.
“No can do, Rudo wants to knit this cute little cardigan he thought up for Amo so I have to help him. Amo wants me to teach her my strawberry fruit tart recipe so she can make it for Rudo but Amo hates your guts so it won’t work.”, you groaned, wiggling free from his grabby hands.
Enjin huffed in defeat realizing your dilemma, he couldn’t ask August to help Rudo due to that loud mouth possibly spilling the beans. He could help Amo with the tart but again Amo dislikes him due to his terrible first impression on her.
“Tell ya what, I’ll head into town and buy you everything you need for the kids and I’ll try to convince Amo into letting me help her so you’re not split between the two.”
“Amo isn’t gonna agree to that, she hates you.”, you giggled appreciating his attempt to help.
He frowned at you but knew you were right, “Let’s just give it a try. I’ll talk to Amo and see how she feels. You just focus on the hard project with Rudy Boy and we’ll meet in the middle.”, he smiled at you watching you melt at his genuine attempt to help you.
“Okay we’ll try it, thank you Enjin.”, you smiled, leaning up to pepper a kiss against his lips.
He lifted you up off the floor and held you close to his chest relishing in the warmth you brought while perfectly slotted against him. The plan was made the only obstacle was if Amo rejected Enjin’s help.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“Why can’t Mama help me?”, Amo pouted angrily, huffing and turning her head away from Enjin in retaliation.
Enjin tried to keep a straight face, he couldn’t expose that Rudo had sought out your help for Amo’s gift so he’d have to lie and bite his tongue.
“Everyone is asking (Y/n) for help with something, she’s a little overwhelmed so I asked to take on a task for her. Surely you don’t hate me so much that you won’t let me help you with your gift for a certain bone haired kid.”, Enjin smiled trying to win Amo over.
A bright red blush painted across her cheeks when she realized that Enjin knew who she was trying to make a gift for. “No! No absolutely not, not in a million years will Amo let you help her with something so precious.”, she hissed through gritted teeth.
Enjin groaned in defeat letting his head fall in defeat, “Okay how about a deal, I help you with your gift with Rudo and you help me with my gift for (Y/n)?”
Amo’s gorgeous sunset colored eyes shimmered with excitement at the thought of helping with your gift, but still she hesitated. She pondered the idea for a moment, it was gonna be a risk working with someone like Enjin yet it’d be worth it if it meant helping make the day even more special for her two favorite people. Amo agreed to Enjin’s terms and just like that the partnership was established, Enjin had the ingredient list in his pocket for the strawberry tart so he took Amo and Fu along to the market to get what they needed. Little to their knowledge a certain ruby eyed giver had noticed the small group heading out together, Fu happily helped Amo into the jeep which made her smile and that upset Rudo. He was still new to these softer emotions, emotions like love or jealousy were painfully foreign to him.
Feeling a bit dejected Rudo returned to your sewing room with the fresh batch of yarn you’d ordered for this project. You were helping him knit Amo’s new cardigan when you noticed his solemn expression, he took his place next to you and picked up the knitting needles he’d been using.
“What’s the matter Pup?”, you asked sweetly, a knowing eyebrow raised as you waited for him to answer.
An angry huff spilled from his lips, “D-Do you think Amo likes Fu?”
“Yes.”
Rudo’s eyes widened in horror to your blunt response, oh he looked heartbroken the poor boy. You giggled at his expression making him blush with embarrassment, “(Y/n) I’m serious, they were going somewhere with Enjin and she just seemed so happy with him.”
You sighed and put down your knitting needles, “Rudo you know Amo loves everyone, it’s the only good thing she’s ever known but she loves her friends and family differently than she loves you.”, you explained.
“How can you possibly know that?”, he sighed.
Your eyes softened seeing this romantically hopeless teen struggle with his emotions.
“Do you love Amo?”, you wondered aloud, returning to knitting the new row of color into the cardigan.
Rudo fell quiet for a moment, recalling how the two first met and how things had changed once Amo had become a cleaner. He knew the answer even if it was still a strange feeling for him, “I want to protect Amo and her smile, I want to support her through those hard days. That way the warmth never leaves.”, he explained pressing a hand to his chest where his heart beat.
It was an innocent answer, feelings so raw and pure. He was maturing from the angry feral boy he was when he arrived from the Sphere.
“Rudo that answer is enough to make this all worth it, I’m sure Amo will be able to tell how you feel when you give this present to her.”, your words were soft and sincere, bringing him enough comfort to refocus on the project.
There was something else bothering him, an insecurity maybe and your instincts could tell he’d explain it soon. Rudo sighed once more and placed his stuff down on his lap, “I’m scared…I’m scared it’ll happen again.”
“What will Pup?”
“Back when I was up in the Sphere, there was this girl I liked. I repaired a stuffed rabbit toy and gave it to her when I tried to confess. Then all that drama happened and when I was being tossed to the Ground like trash she threw the rabbit away in front of me. Do you think…do you think Amo will do the same?”
You placed your materials down on your work bench and stood up tall and before Rudo knew it he was enveloped in your arms in a tight embrace. The scent of fresh linen and your soft perfume filled his senses bringing him some much needed comfort.
“That girl was a fool to throw away your love, it’s scary to try again but trust me when you find the right person things just work out. Amo isn’t gonna be like that girl, so you pour every ounce of love into this gift and wait to see what true appreciation and happiness looks like.”
“O-okay I will, thanks mama.”
You smiled softly at your little boy, pressing a small peck to his forehead to ease his crazy mind. Rudo blushed bright red before returning to his project. “You better hope I never see that girl that broke your heart or I swear you will see me fight a child.”, you huffed angrily making Rudo laugh at your sudden aggression. The laughter brought you both comfort and finally the tension in the room seemed to disappear. The two of you worked in silence, Rudo occasionally asking for your help when he made a mistake. Valentine’s Day was approaching fast and you had to be sure that this cardigan was perfect, especially with all the hard work Rudo had put into learning how to knit just to make it.
Down in the kitchen Amo and Enjin toiled away at the table to make the tart for Rudo, Enjin knew better than to get in Amo’s way but he was there to offer support and caution her in mistakes if she was close to making any. Fresh ingredients were hard to come by down here so they had to make the most of what they had.
“There you go, fold the vanilla extract into the cream cheese a bit and then we’ll add sugar and some lemon zest to balance out the taste.”, Enjin instructed from his spot at the edge of the counter.
Amo was diligently listening to his directions but refused to let him lend a hand. She wanted to be the one to do everything no matter the mess, “Okay the filling is done. Next to pour it into the crust and work on the strawberries.”, Amo repeated the instructions to herself making sure to follow every step Enjin had given her.
Sadly her body had begun to move on its own and she reached for the oven door as if wanting to put the tart back in.
“Whoa hold on now!”, Enjin shouted.
Amo panicked to the sound of Enjin’s voice, the mold slipped from her hand much to her horror. Enjin’s instincts had kicked in and he moved with speed that impressed even him. He managed to catch the tart before it fell and ruined the whole project, Amo stepped back in tears. The close call having startled her, “A-Amo almost ruined it. The tart was almost ruined.”, she sobbed.
Enjin’s eyes softened seeing her so upset, he placed the tart back on the counter and took the offset spatula to flatten the displaced filling until it was perfect again.
“Amo it’s okay, you were just hyper focused on all the steps. Look it’s still okay, you’re still doing an amazing job, here I’ll help you do the rest, just settle down. If (Y/n) hears I made ya cry she’ll kick me outta the HQ building for the night and make me sleep outside in the cold.”, Enjin joked trying to make her feel better.
Amo brushed away her tears, her choked laughter slowly falling from her wobbly lips. She took a deep breath and tried to focus again, Enjin helped her with cutting the rest of the strawberries and the glaze while she decorated the tart. She seemed calmer now that he was actually helping her, eventually the two of them finished and the tart was complete but something seemed to be missing.
“It’s a real pretty tart Amo, amazing job but it seems like something’s missing.”
Amo and Enjin pondered for a moment in silence, it needed something special, but what could it need?
“What else can Amo do for it? I’m sure Rudo will love it anyways but it seems to plain.”, Amo mumbled to herself.
Enjin’s golden eyes scanned the messy countertop and landed on several uncut strawberries when an idea popped into his mind. He moved to reach for something hidden at the top of one of the cabinets and pulled out a bar of chocolate, one she recognized as your favorite, “We’ll dip four strawberries in chocolate and place them in the middle of the tart with his name written on em, whatcha think?”
Amo beamed at the brilliant idea and the two quickly started to work on the finishing touches. Eventually they finished and the tart was even prettier than Amo imagined it could be, Enjin gently placed it in the cake box and sealed it up.
“Now to put it in the fridge to rest until tomorrow.”, Enjin hummed with a soft smile on his face.
Amo nodded and finally let out a shaky breath she had seemed to be holding in, “I hope Rudo likes it.”, she worried.
Enjin gently patted her back and reassured her that Rudo would be amazed by his gift. Amo seemed to relax at his words and nodded her head quietly, “What about your gift for Mama?”
Enjin blushed and rubbed the back of his neck nervously before pulling out a small box from his pocket, “If I’m being honest I already had her gift ready but I guess what I needed was someone’s blessing to ask for her hand in marriage. You’re her little Princess so I figured that you’d be the only one I could really ask for this.”, he confessed nervously placing the box in Amo’s small hands.
She opened the box to reveal the beautiful ring inside, it was simple but elegant much like (Y/n) and on the inside of the band a date was engraved.
“What’s this?”, Amo asked quietly.
Enjin chuckled, “It’s the day I realized that I’d fallen head over heels for her, even before we dated.”
Amo’s heart fluttered listening to Enjin lovestruck tone, he loved you he really did and this was the moment she finally accepted it. She closed the box and smiled as she placed it back into his hands, “As long as you promise to protect and love her with all your heart then Amo says yes.”, she smiled.
Enjin nodded his head promising to do as she said, once Enjin had received her blessing the two of them headed up to your workshop to hide the tart in your mini fridge from prying eyes. Rudo had met them at the door with something hiding behind his back, he said nothing and bolted away from the room before either of them could say anything to him. Amo greeted you with a huge smile and a tight hug while Enjin hid the tart in the fridge. You wished Amo a good night and waited till she left to meet Enjin’s gaze, “She actually let you help her, impressive. I hope you didn’t pull any weird tactics on my baby girl to get her to work with you.”, you teased, stealing a kiss from his lips as he finally joined you by your side.
Enjin hummed against your lips upon receiving the kiss and swore he hadn’t used any shady methods. It was at this moment of peace that Enjin realized that this was what he’d get to live with for the rest of his life. He hadn’t meant to say it so early but he fell to his knees in front of you and laid his head against your lap, “Please marry me (Y/n).”, he sighed breathlessly, content with the blissful peace of the moment.
You rolled your eyes believing he was just playing around with you, “I will when you ask me properly.”
Enjin chuckled and slowly pulled the box from his pocket and opened it to you, “You’re right. (Y/n), most beautiful woman to ever grace my eyes and heart, will you marry me and keep my ass in line for the rest of our lives?”
Your muscles had gone rigid once you’d saw the ring, the tears were quicker than your lips when you realized that it was real. Enjin had actually just asked for your hand in marriage.
“I’m keeping the kids in the divorce, all of them.”, you confessed boldly, Enjin laughed wholeheartedly at that comment. You were dead serious and he knew that but as if he’d mess up again and lose you. Your face had flushed bright red at his proposal but it was real and honest, you whispered a soft ‘yes’ to him trying to keep yourself from crying.
Enjin smiled at you and placed the ring on your finger before stealing another kiss from you, “Thank you sweetheart. You don’t know how scared I’ve been about this moment.”, he chuckled wiping away your tears.
“I can’t believe you proposed to me while I’m in pajama pants and your shirt, I’m so glad nobody’s recording this.”, you groaned.
Enjin couldn’t help but laugh again when he finally saw what you were wearing, not the most photogenic outfit for a proposal but who cares. Enjin wanted you as you are even if it meant perfectly comfortable in your lounge wear. Tomorrow was Valentines Day and tomorrow you’d all get to celebrate together as a family.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
The party was loud and proud just like most celebrations here in Cleaner HQ, everyone was eating and drinking and partying to their hearts delights but two young cleaners were missing. Zanka, the ever observant young man he was, was the first to voice the two missing teens.
“Leave them be Zanzan, they’ll be here soon enough.”, you hummed already knowing what the two were up too.
Zanka’s face flushed at the nickname, he turned away to hide the pink dusting his cheeks. You smiled at his bashful reaction, Enjin joined you at the table greeting you with a peck to the lips. The rest of your friends continued to chatter about recent missions and gossip like old fools over the delicious meal and music.
Eventually the two missing teens returned with rosy cheeks and happy smiles on their faces, Amo was dawning her new cardigan to show it off to everyone and Rudo’s face was already littered with crumbs all over his face. He placed his tart in the middle of the table and offered the rest of it to everyone else to share.
“Hey girl hey, Amo you look adorable! Did August make you a new cardigan?”, Riyo cheered, sending a teasing glance to Rudo.
Amo smiled and shook her head explaining that Rudo had personally knitted the cardigan for her. The men at the table all teased Rudo for his sweet gesture making his face burn red with embarrassment. Amo shooed them all away with her long sleeves and whispered something into Rudo’s ear while pointing at you. Ruby eyes locked on to the ring around your finger and without much decorum Rudo shouted, “Yo what’s with the rock on your finger Ma?”
The room fell silent, all eyes locked on you. You blushed and sheepishly raised your finger to show off your engagement ring for everyone to see.
“Surprise?”, you squeaked cautiously, the whole room erupted into an uproar.
Nobody could believe that sweet (Y/n) had been proposed to especially by Enjin! Semiu and Gris immediately started hounding him with threats about breaking your heart again and ordered him to be a good husband to you. Some of the kids gagged at the idea of him marrying you while the older teens chuckled about the chaos ensuing.
“Crazy that you managed to bag a baddie Enjin, never thought you had it in you.”, Zanka teased.
“Seriously you’ve been a hopeless flirt for ages and sweet (Y/n) managed to hold you down without breaking a sweat. You’re down bad aren’t ya lover boy?”, Riyo added with a snicker.
The rest of the party was spent congratulating you two on your engagement, with even more reason to celebrate everyone was letting loose. Music blasting, chatter drowning out the music, food and drinks galore for all. Enjin found his place at your side and intertwined his fingers with you, bringing your hand up to his lips to kiss your ring.
“Happy Valentine’s Day (Y/n), thanks for making it so special for me.”, he whispered to you.
You smiled at him before turning to your eyes back to your gaggle of kids, Amo and Rudo were happily enjoying themselves along with the rest of the pack and you couldn’t be happier.
“Puppy love is so cute.”, you sighed.
“That was us once upon a time, glad we’ve moved past that. Thinking about calling you wifey gets me real riled up.”, Enjin hums softly into your ear watching you shudder from his words.
“It’s still early enough for me to say no.”, you grinned evilly making him slink back nervously.
Yeah you loved Valentine’s Day, just as much as you loved your crazy little family.
Achy muscles, pulsing headache, irritable, when he arrives home he never wants to be like this especially around his beloved wife. A cheerful voice calls out to him from the kitchen as he kicks off his shoes by the front door. He wants to be happy he’s home, he wants to relish in the delicious smell of his favorite meal with you by his side but he’s currently so miserable.
“Dear.”, he calls out to you, the irritation lacing every syllable of the sweet pet name.
You happily scamper out of the kitchen with a smile on your face, welcoming him home with a tender kiss before taking off his blazer and asking about his day. A disgruntled noise erupts from his throat making you flinch and realize that your husband is upset. He forgets his slippers at the door and walks to the couch, falling heavily into the comfortable seat with his legs spread and head thrown back in frustration.
“Today was horrible my love, I know dinner is almost ready but I fear today is the day I’ll finally have to take you up on your offer.”, he hisses, toned arm thrown over his sensitive eyes to block out the lights.
You feel your thighs squeeze together upon hearing his words, finally, the time has finally come for you to carnally ease your husband after a grueling day of work. Delicate feet pad across the wooden floors back into the kitchen to turn off the stove before you return to your frustrated husband. He lifts his arm off his face and looks down between his parted legs to see you patiently waiting for permission to do what he’s asked of you.
“Honey, you seem rather eager.”, he confesses, anger already fizzling out because of the peace your smile brings him.
You smile as you stand up, delicate hands slowly reaching for his expensive Italian tie to loosen it. Your lips steal a sweet kiss from his lips before cascading down his face to his neck. “My wonderfully considerate and selfless husband has finally been selfish and asked for me to help relieve him of his stress. I’ve waited years for this moment, to finally make you feel as good as you always do everyday for me. So yes I’m eager to spoil my husband.”, you confess pressing a deep kiss to the pulse point on his neck.
Kento groans softly to your tender kisses, his body so sensitive to your touch that his nipples harden feeling your fingers brush between the buttons of his shirt to undo them and expose his chest.
“I’m going to leave you feeling so weightless you won’t be able to move, I’ll have to spoon feed you here on the couch because you’ll be unable to feel your legs once I’m done with you.”, you purred against the shell of his ear, your words laced with seductive promise that made his cock pulse in his slacks.
You kiss down his exposed chest, working the remaining buttons free to continue your journey down his abdomen. The fuzziness of his happy trail mixed with your tender lips draws a soft chuckle from his chest, he’s ticklish around this part so you don’t stay long. Finally you’ve arrived at his slacks, the bulge of his cock already stiff under the fabric.
“My poor husband, so abused at his stupid office job. They don’t appreciate you enough, but I do. I appreciate everything about you, from the way you dress to the way you wake in the morning, hell even the way you do meaningless tasks around the house. Just for tonight Kento focus on the way I show you my appreciation.”, you purr seductively, swiping a long stripe of your tongue over his covered bulge.
Kento nods focusing on the way your greedy hands man handle his slack and boxers off until you’ve thrown them into some forgotten corner of the living room. The swollen tip of his fat cock drools with pre down his shaft, all the way down to his firm heavy sack. You lick your lips at the delicious sight before you, “Tonight is about you Ken, don’t even think about me right now.”, you warned already leaning down to suckle the pre off his firm balls.
He throws his head back over the back of the couch, relishing the way you slobber and suck his heavy balls. You suck each one individually into your mouth, dragging your tongue over the sensitive skin until it’s wet with your drool. The stimulation draws more pre to spill from his tip coating his shaft in his delicious taste all for you. Kento groans in pleasure, his mind begging him to gain back some sense of control but he can’t focus once you begin kissing up his shaft. Your delicate hand gently wraps around the tip of his cock giving it a testing squeeze.
“Oh~ f-fuck, Love…oh my love more, do more.”, he begs impatiently.
Using your thumb from the hand squeezing the tip you slowly squeeze the pad into the slit of his cock. Nanami chokes out a groan in pleasure, of course you’d know that’s his weak spot. While you tease his slit your tongue laps up his shaft, catching every drop of pre that’s dripped down. The salty taste tickles the back of your throat making you moan against his shaft, “Ken, have I ever told you how big and beautiful you are all over?”, you hum sweetly, pressing another kiss to the thick vein that climbs along the underside of his cock.
“Ngh— y-yes sweetheart you have —oh shit right there!”, he groans feeling you suck a deep hickey against the right side of his shaft.
Once you’re satisfied you let go with a loud pop of your lips, finally prepared to give him the proper attention he deserves now that he’s all worked up. You release his tip, mesmerized by the thick sticky pre-cum that coated your hand, “My perfect husband.”, you sighed dreamily leaning in to finally take his fat cock down your throat.
Kento usually tries to take control during blowjobs, he doesn’t want you to hurt yourself but right now you don’t give him to chance too. For now you just focus on the upper half of his thick cock, letting your tongue bully the tip and outlines of his veiny shaft. His thighs tense while you suck him off, hips twitching with the need to thrust into your throat to chase his much needed release.
“Oh H-Honey~ (Y/n)…f-fucking gods you’re perfect.”, Kento chokes out relishing the sticky warmth of your mouth. Your hands wander over his skin, from his thighs to his crotch you let him know exactly where you are on him.
You release his cock with a loud pop before spitting a fat glob of saliva on the tip to use as lube. Both your hands wrap around his shaft, squeezing gently and rolling your wrists to stimulate him more. Your lips return to the swollen tip of his cock, peppering light kisses all over it.
“My. Beautiful. Husband.”, you purred, placing a kiss to his cock with every word.
His thick thighs flex with every move you make against him, worshipping his cock like this already has him forgetting about his horrible day. Once again you place his cock in your mouth and begin to bob your head, one of your hands leave his shaft to fondle his heavy balls while you sneak more and more of him down your throat. Kento doesn’t even realize what you’re doing until it’s to late, he’s fucking into your throat before he realizes you’ve completely taken all of him without actually trying.
“Oh~ s-so deep. Y-Your throat is so tight.”, he moans, you choke him down with each movement, letting the wet noises in your throat echo for him to hear.
Kento feels your small hand around his wrist leading it to your head, he understands what you want and he doesn’t want to man handle you like this but fuck he’s so close to releasing a fat load down your throat. He gathers your (h/c) locks in his hand using it to move your head the way he wants. The wet choked out sounds you make while he face fucks you make him ache with need, it’s so messy and nasty but it feels so good. Soon he feels it, the rise of his heavy balls to release his seed down your throat, oh it’s almost to much to handle he feels to good.
“(Y/n)~ m-my sweet wife, I-I—oh shit— I’m going to cum. It’s coming out, g-get off sweetheart. It’s going to be too much, g-get— oh fuck!”, Kento screams in pleasure, you take him all the way down to the hilt letting the tip scrape down your throat to fill you with his fat load. The contraction of your throat around his cock makes Kento’s eyes roll back in pleasure, his toes curl pathetically while his hips give several weak thrusts with each spurt of cum he gives you.
You don’t let go of him until he’s done cumming, slowly pulling yourself off his soaked cock you press a kiss to the tip before giving him a raspy thank you for the delicious load.
“That was beautiful, Mr. Nanami. I hope I did my job properly as your wife to ease your stress.”, you giggled gently slapping his cock against your cheek.
Kento’s head is thrown back, chest heaving for breath in shallow pants while he tries to form some sort of sentence in his mushy brain. Your throat was devious, had he known you’d suck him off like that he would’ve let you do it sooner.
“M-Mrs. Nanami, we are never getting divorced. I will do everything in my power…t-to keep you happy with me. Oh honey please let me return the favor before we eat.”, he begged already back to wanting to serve you.
You giggled seeing his desperate expression, he always provided and served you, it’s just how he was even if he was dead tired from a long day. You stood up tall and lifted up the large skirt of your dress to show him the mess you’d made of yourself between your thighs, “I’m alright sweetheart, I started fingering myself there at the end and finished myself off. Let’s get you fed and bathed for the night, I made your favorite.”, you smiled dropping your skirt and returning to the kitchen after pressing a sweet peck to his lips.
The kitchen sink turns on and he can only assume you must be washing your hands after that beautiful mess you’d just made. You’re humming in the kitchen when a thought pops in your head, “You know Honey, I was reading your employee contract recently and apparently you’d get paid paternity leave for four weeks if we ever had a baby. I think that’s nice your company offers that to fathers.”, you called out to him, not once turning back towards the entrance of the kitchen.
Oh if only you understood what you’d just done, you just gave him the most toe curling head of his life and now you dared to mention a baby in front of him. Kento rips off his tie and his shirt before marching into the kitchen to claim his precious wife. Taking care of you after you’ve given him his first baby for four weeks while being paid sounds like a very wonderful idea.
“I’m going to break the dining room table or the bed tonight just to make sure it takes sweetheart.”
was wondering if your planing on writing about their break after the fight, I can't stop thinking about the possible angst and groveling that happened
Ya know someone asked me about Den Mother’s backstory I might honestly mix this thought into that part when I finally think of something. I kinda have the next few parts thought out in my head I just have to write them.
