Masterlists Begin Below, I will try to update masterlists monthly if time allows it.
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.
Summ. Amo loves love! Naturally she wants to know how her precious Mama (Y/n) came to love someone like Enjin but you’re currently away on a mission. She’ll have to utilize her minion Fu for answers.
Enjin was happily enjoying the spoils of his recent poker game with Bro and Gris was his senses activated towards a presence nearing him. His golden eyes shot to his right and there stood Fu with a goofy grin on his face.
“What d’ya want Fu?”, he groaned trying to deal out the next round of cards, the two older cleaners snickered at Enjin’s displeased expression.
Now when Fu had orders he would carry them out no matter what, thankfully this current mission wasn’t anything difficult just a question that needed to be answered in specific detail. “How did you and Miss (Y/n) meet?”, Fu inquired.
Enjin’s eyes widened in shock turning to Fu with curious judgement, “Now why do you wanna know that?”, Enjin wondered.
Fu’s smile grew wider, “I’ve just been curious, I know you two had split after a rather gnarly fight and stayed broken up for about a year. I’m just curious about how you managed to woo someone like her.”
Enjin’s expression soured at the mention of the break up, he wanted to shoo Fu away but Gris answered for him. “Oh (Y/n) hated him when they first met, Enjin was a overly cocky flirt back when (Y/n) joined and she gave him a piece of her mind immediately upon meeting.”
“Gris! Shut up dude!”
Fu’s eyes widened, you could hate someone? (Y/n), sweet, dependable, beautiful (Y/n) had the ability to hate people?
“Really, b-but I thought Mum loved everyone?”
Bro chuckled under his breath, “Naw Enjin loved pressing her buttons first day they met she told him off and after that he was sunk. Completely head over heels for her.”
“I will impale the next person that speaks with my Umbreaker, I swear to god I-“
“What’re you fools doing in here? There’s work to be done and none of y’all have been answering my calls.”
Everyone turned to see Semiu entering the room, Gris and Bro shared a look before turning to Semiu with devilish grins. “Oh sorry Boss Lady, Fu was just asking us about how Enjin and (Y/n) met. We were sharing what we know with him but as her best friend I’m sure you’ve got the whole story.”, Gris hummed innocently, meeting Enjin’s flustered gaze.
“Oh, yeah I remember. Remember that scene like the back of my hand. Come sit down Fu I’ll tell you all about it.”, Semiu grinned evilly at Enjin despite him silently begging her not to.
Fu quickly called Amo on his blood choker and begged her to come down and listen to the story. The excited young teen raced into the room in a hurry with Rudo and Riyo in tow. Just like that Semiu had a small crowd sitting around her for story time.
“Enjin has been here for a very long time and as some of know he’s an annoying bastard and a shameless flirt.”, Semiu began earning some laughs from the older Cleaners, “Years ago I brought on (Y/n) and her potential was so great I talked Corvus into letting her be a part of Team Front. The (Y/n) y’all know today ain’t the one we knew back then. (Y/n) was like a machine, cold and dead inside, eyes frosty and lifeless, but sweet down to her core. Took her a bit but eventually she warmed up to us and stopped being a lifeless robot. Well the first time Enjin met her was on her first day as an official member, we were celebrating her initiation with a party and Enjin knocked into her and her drink spilled all over her top. It was stained and I’ll admit the soaked part of her shirt made her boobs look mighty fine, Enjin voiced his opinion about her boobs shamelessly and wam bam thank you ma’am she knocked him on his ass verbally chewed him out, I’m not repeating it because if y’all crash out one day and use her words she’ll have my neck, but it was mean and ugly. From that day on Enjin was like a puppy, following her, trying to talk her, hell even asking her on dates despite how much she hated him.”
Riyo laughed recalling a particular instance when Enjin tried to compliment your new uniform update only to be flipped off and ignored. “She was too real for that.”, Riyo snickered turning to look at the embarrassed blonde at the poker table.
Semiu continued, “Naturally Enjin felt defeated since nothing seemed to be working, for a while he decided to back off and lay low. Instead of chasing her he started watching, like creepy stalker kind of watching, figuring her out so he could bring down her walls.”
“I was not that pathetic!”, Enjin groaned.
“Yes you were fool! Anyways somehow he caught (Y/n) on a good day and introduced her to Riyo when he recruited her. Riyo and (Y/n) were both pretty frigid towards each other but (Y/n) took on Riyo as her trainee and taught her different combat styles to use with her scissors. Naturally being a part of Team Akuta, Enjin was constantly floating around and watching over the two of them. (Y/n) started talking to him about Riyo’s progress and just like that the bond was established.”, Semiu hummed in amusement.
“He was friend zoned for about two years before actually getting a shot with her.”, another voice filled the room drawing everyone’s attention, Arkha came in chuckling to himself about those old memories.
Enjin let out an even louder groan, his forehead slamming onto the poker table in embarrassment, “Not you to Boss Man.”, he complained.
Amo poked her head over the couch grinning evilly at Enjin, “Serves you right, you deserved to be held out like fish for someone as precious as Mama.”, she giggled.
“Oh my gosh and when he finally managed to pop the question about a date he was absolutely pathetic. He stumbled over his words like a little kid and was as red as his tattoos!”, Riyo cackled, kicking her legs wildly as she laughed.
“Really how bad? Did she reject him?”, Rudo finally added in, a curious smile pulling at his lips.
“Riyo shut your face!”, Enjin warned.
“‘Hey Sunshine, think I could take ya out for a night on the town one of these days?’”, Riyo mimicked how Enjin spoke pretending to be him, “Surprisingly (Y/n) actually told him yeah and even gave him a confident smirk, and just like that he was folded like an idiot. ‘O-Oh I-I um…w-we could go whenever you like. M-My calendars open for you. I’m at your beck and call.’“
“I didn’t say it like that!”, Enjin huffed ready to toss his poker chips at the next person who spoke.
“If I say it the way you actually said it then everyone will clown you!”, Riyo shouted back at him, grinning like a villain.
Semiu, Arkha, Bro, and Gris all turned to him with mischievous looks in their eyes. Gris leaned in close to him and said, “Oh then enlighten us, how did you say it?”
Enjin shrunk back into his seat, his eyes darting between the five cleaners that knew about that embarrassing moment in the room. The kids all stared curiously at him waiting to hear the rest of the story until the door slid open once more. You stepped in fresh back from a mission with your tired eyes to the ground, “Semiu why weren’t you at your desk Honey Bunny? I was loo-oh what’re you all doing in here?”, you smiled seeing your fledglings and your friends.
Amo lunged at you from her spot on the couch and giggled happily when you caught her in a deep hug, “Hey Mama, how did Enjin ask you out the first time?”, she asked sweetly.
You laughed under your breath at the very thought of the answer, Enjin silently begged you not to embarrass him like this but you wouldn’t truly love him if you weren’t afraid to publicly embarrass him about his worst moments.
“‘Hey girl, how you doin?’”, you mimicked the tone of his voice, the room erupting into laughter while Amo prickled in disgust, “Then I said ‘I’m fine, how you doin daddy?’. He absolutely short circuited and babbled out something about wanting to take me out for the night and I told him sure surprise me, I’d take a date or an execution any day.”
Riyo wheezed from how hard she’d been laughing while Gris and Bro bullied Enjin about his tomato colored face.
“‘I-I…ya’know c-cool. We could go tonight, I-I don’t got many friends so I’m all yours.’ I had to go out with him at that point, he was so pathetic it was cute. Which was crazy cuz I’ve seen the women he flirted with before me and let me tell you he was so smooth with them. My heart fluttered listening to some of his pick up lines with them and let me tell you I was expecting something out of this world only to get him at his worst. He’s lucky it worked.”, you grinned teasingly.
Enjin melted out of seat and laid on the floor dramatically in defeat, “Bury me here, leave me alone in my shame.”, he faked a sob.
Everyone laughed at his performance before finally breaking up for now. Team Child was being dispatched on a mission and Semiu had to explain details to them before they headed out. Now that Amo had her answer she blissfully skipped through the halls returning to her room. Fu and Rudo wandered off to play video games together while you stayed behind with Enjin.
“I know I tease you a bunch about it but it was honestly the sweetest way I’d ever been asked out.”, you hummed to him from the couch.
There was shuffling sounds coming from behind the couch, you looked over your shoulder to see Enjin glaring at you, “What do you mean the sweetest way you’ve been asked out?”, he interrogated you for answers.
You patted the couch cushion next to you, he hopped over the couch to join you but his glare hadn’t left. You pressed a deep kiss to his lips before turning away and humming, “Yeah Gris asked me out with much more confidence once when we were broken up that one year.”
You knew you were in for it once his fingers met your sides, he startled to tickle you aggressively making you fall over in laughter. You tried to get away but it was too late, you were too tired to run and accepted your cruel fate. Eventually Enjin stopped once he’d made you cry from laughter, he opted to laying on top of you instead.
“Did you get hurt on your mission?”, his voice quiet but firm.
“No Enjin, I was careful. Took out that trash beast quick and easy.”
“Good.”, he replied pressing a kiss to your neck, “Hey, d’ya think this old idiot could possibly interest you in a date tonight?”
“Hmm I don’t know, I’ve got this smoking hot blonde at home who warms my bed. I don’t think he’d appreciate me going out with someone else.”, you teased watching a smile draw across his face.
“I’m sure he wouldn’t mind, I’ll get you home nice and early for bedtime. Maybe even help ya warm your bed if you’re interested?”
Your face flushed red, your eyes trying to focus on anything but him in all his glowing confidence, “Oh damn that was good.”, you squeaked.
Enjin chuckled softly against your neck, finally letting himself relax on top of you. You both stayed there on the couch cuddled up for a bit before finally returning to your room for some much needed rest and relaxation. Enjin would indeed take you on another perfect date later that week as promised, Amo watching from afar how well he treated you. A smile draws across her face at the sight of you two, Enjin was a mess in her sunset colored eyes but at least he kept himself together for a woman like you.
Sum. There are nights he still dreams of a future that he took from you, you know he struggles with it so you indulge his fantasies even if they’ll never come true.
Warning: P in V, mating press, breeding, marathon sex (implied) emotional topic (wanting babies when incapable), angsty fluff, etc.
There’s something bothering him, you can tell from the grip he has on your hips, you can tell from the strength behind his thrusts. Enjin is burying his cock as deep as he can inside of you to breed you, you can tell it’s bothering him again. The arch in your back sinks down further, your hips bounce back on his to bury him deeper, “I-It’s so deep, fuck Enjin~.”, you moan softly.
He loves when you arch like this for him but it’s not enough, Enjin lays against your back sinking you into the mattress. With his knees caging the sides of your hips, you feel his cock grind deliciously against your g-spot in this position. Using his full weight, Enjin sinks his cock deeper and deeper inside of you, his hips never letting up from their intense pace.
The inner walls of your cunt pulse around his shaft drawing an animalistic groan from his chest. “That’s it Mama, just take it like a good girl. Take everything I give you.”, he starts whispering into your ear making you pulse more around him.
“Enjin I-I’m c-cumming again. Oh fuck I’m-“, you try to warn him but Enjin doesn’t care about some stupid warning. His muscled tattooed arms wrap around your head completely leaving you at his mercy, you spasm through another creamy orgasm and bite down into the sheets to keep quiet so no one hears you scream with pleasure. The erratic convulsions of your pussy walls coaxes another load out of his heavy balls, Enjin thrusts deeper into your cunt making sure he paints you all the way up to your cervix.
“Please take…please fucking take.”, he whispers softly to himself, the creamy ring around the base of his cock is evidence of this rather passionate night together but even so it’s still not enough.
You shimmy away from him, his cock slipping free from your gooey cunt with a wet ‘pop’. Enjin watches the way your muscles tense with every breath you take and he sighs realizing he’s being selfish again. You fall onto your back, cunt still fluttering from the aftershocks of your orgasm, “I’m gonna be so sore tomorrow.”, you giggled trying to lighten the mood.
There’s a distant ‘sorry’ grumbled to you in response, Enjin has scooted himself over to the edge of the bed with his head hanging in shame. A distant look shimmering in his glossy gold eyes, his imagination running wild with what could’ve been.
“Enjin, baby, what’s going on in that pretty head of yours?”, you ask slowly crawling to his side until you’re sitting next to him.
The tears he’d been shedding fall heavier the moment your small hand cups his back, the tenderness of your soft hands sends him over the edge. He’s so mad and so miserable because of the thoughts he’s been having, “Sorry, I-I’m just pissed is all. I wish I could’ve given you a baby, I wish I hadn’t fucking ruined things between us. If I’d just saved you back then, then maybe I would’ve had you round and pregnant ages ago. I try to make up for it, I try to fill you so good every time we make love but it’s never enough.”, Enjin admitted.
The familiar ache in your heart throbbed again, you’d been here before on your own. These dark nights dreaming of what could’ve been, but you’ve let go of those dreams ages ago. It’s a personal struggle you both suffer from but it’s easier now that you two are together again. Enjin gasps when he feels your hands cup his cheeks turning his face towards you for a kiss. The moment your lips meet his he seems to relax, his large calloused hands find their home at your hips and hold you close. You pull away and flash him a sad smile, an understanding smile, “I know it’s hard Enjin, it’s not all your fault and I’ve already forgiven you. For now let’s just get lost in our little world and dream about it together.”, you hummed softly.
“We both know a sorry excuse of a man like me doesn’t deserve you, Sunshine.”, he sighs gently laying you down against the mattress.
You chuckle softly at that statement, legs perfectly wrapping around his waist to pull him in close, “You may be right, but you’re the only one who I’ll allow to fill me to the brim. Now shut up and stuff me full, it’s not enough.”
Enjin wishes he could have some self control, hell he’s still upset but the seductive tone in your face has his aching cock twitch against his stomach. Not enough, how can you say that when your folds are sticky from the last few loads he’s pumped leaking out of you, you’re overflowing. The tip of his cock gently swipes between your wet folds, tempting you with the pleasure you’d soon receive.
“Messy girl, if I push in now everything I’ve pumped into your pretty cunt will come out. How is that even fair?”, Enjin teased with a cocky grin.
He fell against you, face buried in the crook of your neck, “I can take it, I’ll take every last drop from you. Come on handsome, make me a mommy.”, you whispered into his ears.
“Fuck~ now you’ve done it.”, and just like that you feel him deep in your womb, your walls molding perfectly to his cock to hold him inside. Enjin begins rutting his hips without warning, the wet squelch of your pussy filling the space between you two.
At first he doesn’t say anything, he just focuses on you and the way your pussy holds him so intimately, “You’re molded to my shape.”, he chuckles, his tone husky and filled with love. Then he notices something, a tiny bump in your belly from when he plunges inside.
“Damn baby, you see me inside? Can you see where I am in you?”, he groaned pressing a rugged hand over the bulge in your belly.
You both moan at the added pressure from his palm, your hands reach down to hold his, “That’s where you’re gonna shoot your load right? As deep as you can g-go, fuck it feels so good.”, you cry out, legs wrapping tighter around his waist.
Enjin whispers a silent promise into your ear, swearing that he can go deeper for you. Although he loves you clinging to him like this there’s another position that he prefers above all else. He’s already getting you into position, his hands reach for your legs pushing them up to your chest before he lays over your body again, “I’m gonna put a baby in you just like this, gonna keep you plugged up with my cock until you’re carrying our baby.”, he moaned against your ear, struggling to focus from the tightness of your greedy cunt around his shaft.
You smile seeing his brainless expression, he’s so lost in the idea he doesn’t even realize it, “Let me make you the sexiest daddy alive.”, you pleaded softly watching the raw joy shine in his sunny gold eyes.
Enjin leans down towards you, your hands cupping his cheeks, lips meeting once more for a deep loving kiss. Your body curls under him, your legs thrown over his shoulders while he pounds desperately into your sweet cunt. The stretch hurts but you don’t care enough to focus on it, you need to feel him deep inside of you. Deeper and deeper all the way up to your chest until he’s all you can think about.
“Gonna be the most beautiful mommy ever. Gonna give your cervix a big ol kiss with my cock and fill her up with another fat load. You deserve it, you take what you want mama.”, his heavy hips leave three sharp heavy thrusts deep inside of you before returning to the steady pace he had before.
“Enjin please, c-cum deep inside of me. I need it all, I can take it I promise.”, you begged, back arching off the sheets in pleasure.
He knows you can, he knows you’ll take every ounce of his love that he gives you. He thrusts deep into you, one powerful thrust for every letter in your name, he slams down so deep that he forces himself to stay down and just grinds into your pelvis.
“Oh my-“, your voice breaks mid-thought, “That’s deep.”
Hot kisses are placed all over your face, to your cheeks, your lips, down to your neck. “I want the baby to look like you, don’t care if it’s a boy or girl. J-Just…mmm yeah right there…just want them to be beautiful like you.”, he began to ramble.
You squeezed tighter around him, his words tickling your brain with the idea of him being a dad. He’d look so good with a baby bouncing on his hip while giving you a deep kiss.
“Y-Yeah….oh~…y-you’d make such a wonderful daddy. Want this so much, Enjin give it to me. I want it all.”
“I want to take care of you when you’re all swollen and moody, wanna fuck you while your tits fill with milk, wanna get up and get you whatever weird cravings you get. There’s so much I wanna do for you, for us, please just let it take!”, he begged.
His hips began moving again, fast and angry thrusts bullying his cock deep into your cunt. It hurt but you wouldn’t pull away when he looked so painfully desperate. His cock filled and stretched you perfectly, pulsing inside of you with his impending release. The knot in your stomach snapped once he began playing with your swollen clit. It was too much to bare, you came against him, walls contracting tightly around his shaft until finally he joined you. He painted your insides with the remained seed he had left and made sure that it went as deep as it could. A few more thrusts, weak but desperate, once the intense pulsing inside of you stopped you knew it was finally over. Enjin panted desperately for breath but slowly moved to release you from the mating press. He pulled out slowly, afraid to hurt you after so many rounds, but he left the tip inside, “E-Enjin…do you wanna go again?”, you asked weakly.
Golden eyes focused on sight between your legs, messy, hot, but raw and real.
“I just…wanna keep you plugged up for the night.”, he admitted.
You understood what he meant, “How about you let me put on your shirt and we get comfortable for the night. I’m tired but if it’s what you want then I guess I’ll let you spoon me for the night.”, his eyes widened at your idea but his smile gave him away.
He pulled out of you and rushed to get you a shirt, you stayed perfectly still on the bed waiting for him until he asked you to sit up. You smiled at his excitement, finally rolling onto your side to sleep after an exhausting night with him. Enjin scooped you up into his arms and pulled you close until your back pressed against his chest, “Are you sure? Don’t want to bother you too much sweetheart.”, he asked, needing a bit more reassurance.
You nodded your head, wiggling your butt against his crotch. Enjin chuckled at your playful teasing, he was only half hard now but it was enough to push into your cunt one more time. You both gasped quietly at the feeling, you pulsed around him while he kept you plugged with his seed.
“Thank you (Y/n). Sorry about everything tonight.”
“It’s okay Enjin, for what it’s worth, I’d be happy to have a baby with you.”, you confessed sleepily.
Enjin’s arms squeezed you a bit tighter against him, “I don’t deserve you at all, I love you so much (Y/n).”
You both finally fell asleep after hours of Enjin desperately painting your insides, at least here in this little world of yours everything was perfect.
Summ. Soshiro is trying to make up for his recent mistakes but you aren’t giving him much of a chance now that he’s caused such a rift between you two. Little does he know that a special someone has come to speak with you about what’s been going on.
Three weeks, almost three weeks of split custody and suffocating hand offs and Soshiro is officially at his wits end. You’re being ridiculously stubborn, he can’t handle this wall you’ve created in order to protect yourself but he knows he can’t keep pushing. Things have been different since that horrible dinner at the Hoshina Manor, it’s been worse since he took the paternity test behind your back but it steeled his resolve to fix things. He gives you updates almost hourly even when he doesn’t have Tsugumi just so you know what he’s up too, sometimes you’ll give a one worded reply or just leave him on seen but it’s enough for him. He’s come to pick up Tsugumi again for another daddy-daughter weekend, he peeks his eyes open hoping to catch a glimpse of you as he walks into the house with the spare key you’d entrusted to him just before the dinner.
“Tsu honey, where’s ya mama?”, Soshiro asks softly, still scanning the room for you.
Tsugumi smiles softly at her father before pointing down to your lab in the basement, “Mama’s playing with Kaiju 11 again.”, she confesses innocently.
Soshiro inhales a sharp breath through his nose, he glares at the door of your basement laboratory and lets out a disgruntled huff. Tsugumi seems to catch on to the fact that her father wishes to see you so she plays a trick on him, “Tag you’re it!”, she squeals bolting for the basement door before Soshiro can stop her. He moves quickly hoping to reach her before she opens the door but it’s too late, Tsugumi slips in and Soshiro stumbles in right after her. You jump in fright and turn to the two of them with an angry glare on your face, “What’re you two doing down here?”, you asked.
“Playing tag with Papa.”, Tsugumi giggled mischievously.
You glared at your daughter recognizing her tells for when she lied, the hum of your machinery alerted you to No. 11 waking up from stasis. You turned to the cyan colored suit floating in the pod with curious eyes, “Finally awake old friend?”, you whispered to it.
Soshiro watched how gentle you became while watching the suit awaken, “Suits are supposed to remain in stasis when not in use, y’know that.”, Soshiro’s voice was soft but you could recognize the tone of a commanding officer from anywhere.
You sighed and hung your head, looking at the vitals on the screen, “It’s also an operation officer’s responsibility to ensure all tech and weaponry is properly maintained and evaluated periodically. If you’re done scolding me then get out and let me work.”, you hissed, not once daring to meet his gaze.
There it was again, your walls were up and it was all his fault. He hadn’t meant to scold you but he didn’t appreciate seeing you so close to a suit that had once tried to kill you during synchronization. He whispered a quick apology and scooped Tsugumi up into his arms, “There’s a movie coming out…it’s a film Tsugumi wants to go watch. Do you want to go together?”, he tried to offer you another olive branch but knew he’d be rejected yet again.
It’d been almost a whole month since that horrible dinner at the Hoshina Manor, family days had disappeared right after the incident. Soshiro hoped that you’d give him a chance again, “I’m not going. If it falls on your day then take her.”, you sighed returning your attention to the suit.
“Bye mama, love you.”, Tsugumi smiled, waving you goodbye.
Soshiro bit his tongue yet again and walked back upstairs to leave, Tsugumi was excited because today she’d get to go hang out with her uncle and grandpa. Soshiro had mentioned his plan to you prior to coming to pick her up, he wanted you to know she was safe and protected even if you were still defensive towards the thought of her being near his family.
“You excited to see grandpa today sweetheart?”
Tsugumi smiled and nodded her head eagerly, “Grandpa always gives me the best snacks and teaches me kendo in the courtyard, I can’t wait to practice some more today!”
Soshiro smiled at his daughter, happy to see her so excited about swordsmanship like he’d been at her age. The Hoshina Manor was huge and overwhelming as always but the smile on his Father’s face was enough to make the trip worth it. Tsugumi ran into her grandfather’s arms with pure excitement making the elderly man laugh softly at his precious granddaughter.
“Hello again my princess, how was your trip over?”, he asked waving a servant to come over with cups of tea for everyone. Tsugumi happily explained how the long drive had went and how she had gotten so bored that she took a nap in her seat half way there. Her grandfather smiled at her and handed her a small tea cup, Tsugumi quite enjoyed her sweet lemon tea, she happily drank it while her father and grandfather quietly chatted amongst themselves.
“I see her mother has failed to join us yet again.”
Soshiro sighed explaining that he’d accidentally reprimanded you for working on your number suit in your home lab. His father shot him a sharp glare and landed an open handed smack on the back of his son’s head.
“Work, work, work, all you think about is being a soldier. You fail to realize that (Y/n) is a capable woman and lack the common decency to acknowledge her for her dedication and commitment to being an officer and a mother. I’d quite enjoy the chance to share an afternoon tea with her someday soon.”, his father huffed.
Soshiro groaned rubbing the back of his head with his hand, he may be older now but that didn’t take away from the fact that he’d always be his father’s foolish younger son.
“I’m working on it, I’d like things to go back to normal soon. I miss having our family outings together and I miss seeing her smile.”, Soshiro confessed.
“Funny how you can say the right words to two stupid old men and not the woman they’re meant for.”, another voice laughed from inside the manor.
Tsugumi beamed seeing her uncle Soichiro arrive, he scooped her up into his arms and hugged her tight happy to see her. He sat next to his little brother with Tsugumi in his arms and smiled at him, “So when are ya finally gonna tell (Y/n) how ya really feel about her? Seriously you’re just beating around the bush here.”, Soichiro complained.
“Things aren’t exactly simple between us, I hurt her. It’s harder to earn back trust than when it’s simply given to you.”, Soshiro sighed taking Tsugumi back into his lap.
The little violet haired girl squirmed out of her father’s grasp and scurried off into the courtyard to chase a frog that had emerged from the koi pond. Her laughter echoed in yard making the three Hoshina men smile with pride, things were tough for all of them but everyone had a battle to fight on their own.
“Are you hoping to rekindle her love for you or have you accepted that coparenting is the best you’ll get?”, Soichiro dared to ask.
Soshiro didn’t reply, his jaw tightened as a frown pulled at his lips. He wanted you both to love each other again but he wasn’t sure how to make it work when he’d caused so much damage between you two. Sango had been forced to apologize to you at your front door but you slammed the door so hard on her that the frame trembled from your rage. Soichiro accepted his part in causing the tension between you two and had threatened Sango with divorce if she ever pulled another stunt like that again.
“I don’t want to just be coparents, if she’ll have me again then I’d spend every day making up for lost time. I really wish mom was still here so I could ask her for advice.”, Soshiro slowly opened his eyes to enjoy Tsugumi playing to her heart’s content.
His father chuckled softly under his breath, “If your mother had been alive to hear what you’d done, she would’ve beat you for being such a colossal idiot.”
The three men all laughed at that fact, the manor was much colder without the Lady of the House they all missed her but in a way Tsugumi and (Y/n) seemed to bring a new warmth to the manor.
“Tsugumi, let’s get you changed for kendo practice. Today I’ll teach you how to strike.”, Father Hoshina cheered.
Tsugumi’s sweet (e/c) eyes widened with excitement, she cheered rushing inside to change with the help of a female servant of the manor. Soshiro’s father was already dawning his usual robes for swordsmanship training. Despite being an old man he was just as excited to pass on the Hoshina sword style to his precious granddaughter as he was when he was teaching his sons. Soshiro and Soichiro sat nearby watching Tsugumi train like they once had all those years ago, “She has your eyes.”, Soichiro hummed in amusement recognizing the special gleam in her eyes.
“She’s having fun, it’s the best motivation for learning. It’s why I constantly badgered you for rematches.”, Soshiro chuckled.
The two brothers shared a quiet laugh before returning their attention to Tsugumi, she indeed would be the future of the Hoshina Clan. For now this peace was all Soshiro could cling to and at that moment it was enough for him.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The house was always quieter with Tsugumi gone, it scared you how eerie the place could be without her. You sighed finally sitting down to eat dinner alone, there was a knock at your door that made you huff in frustration.
“Who could it be at this time of the day?”, you grumbled opening the door just enough to peek through the chain.
Much to your surprise Soshiro’s Father stood outside with a small smile and a box of pastries in hand. Your eyes widened before you quickly shut the door to take off the chain and open it completely for him.
“S-Sir! What’re you doing here?”, you asked, shock evident in your tone.
The elderly man chuckled softly at you, “As easily panicked as ever I see. It is good to finally see you again my dear.”
You smiled at him before realizing how cold it was outside, “Please come in, I’ll make you some tea.”
He happily obliged and entered your home, picture frames filled with photos of various times of Tsugumi’s life decorated the walls. He passed by each one humming at the infant photos of little Tsugumi.
“She looked so much like Soshiro when she was a baby, now she looks like you with his hair.”, he chuckled.
Your smile showed your nervousness, you quickly boiled some water for tea while your guest finally sat at the dining table. Your dinner was long forgotten now that he was here, “Did I disturb your meal, I’m sorry about that. Don’t mind me you should eat.”, he insisted.
You shook your head, deciding to wrap the food for now and eat later, “To what do I owe the pleasure of you visiting me in my tiny home?”, you asked pouring him a cup of green tea.
“I know things between you and my son have been tense, I didn’t come here to meddle with your personal affairs, but I’m a parent just like you. Everyone always focuses on the children during hard times before recalling that the parents can be silently suffering as well. I came to see how you were doing, to see how you feel about everything going on.”, he hummed.
A tiny noise managed to escape from your lips at his words, nobody had actually cared enough to ask you such a thing before. You sat down and joined him for tea, unable to actually put your feelings into words.
“I…I….If I’m being honest, I’m tired. I’m tired of doing this on my own, I’m tired of having to be strong while still failing at everything I do.”, you confessed.
Naturally he expected an honest answer from you, the pain and anguish in your eyes was painfully obvious. It hurt to see you so broken but through the cracks in your mask he could see your resilience.
“A mother, a soldier, a teacher, a friend, you are many things my child but a failure is not one of them.”
You laughed sharply at his words, how could he know that, “Oh please, I am a failure. If I was stronger than I wouldn’t have run away from Soshiro the way I did. If I’d just confessed to him that Tsugumi was in my stomach then we wouldn’t be here. If I was smarter I would’ve noticed earlier that my father was sick and I could’ve done more!”, you ranted angrily, all your bottled up emotions finally spilling over.
Soshiro’s father let out a gentle hum realizing that this wasn’t just some simple guilt but much more. Your own unending battle was still being fought between your heart and brain, “(Y/n), how could you have known about your father’s illness? You can’t blame yourself for that and although you left Soshiro I know you did it to protect yourself and the baby inside. My son was not worthy of a woman as perfect as you back then but I hope that through your pain you can see the attempts he’s making to right his wrongs. You have been a part of this family since the day you made my wife smile at that wonderful family dinner all those years ago. I get to see her smile almost everyday because you were strong enough to raise my granddaughter into such a beautiful little girl. I know it’s hard but sometimes you just need to let go and focus on what’s in front of you.”, old gentle hands slowly squeezed your own, grounding you to reality.
The tears overflowed from your eyes and spilled onto your lap, your tired heart had been touched by his sweet words. He stayed with you that night, listened to the stories that had shaped you into the woman you were today and not once did he judge you for anything. In his eyes you were strong and your strength was passed onto your daughter along with her grandmother’s smile. Eventually he had decided to take his leave, urging you to eat something and get some rest. Soshiro owed it to you to figure out what the problem was in this situation, both of you had to work things out for Tsugumi’s sake no matter what.
Left alone to stew in your own thoughts over your cold dinner you realized something, you had issues. Issues you would run away from rather than face head on. (E/c) eyes slowly moved to the small business card on your fridge, maybe it was finally time for you to handle these demons of yours.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Time, ever moving, passed by in the blink of an eye. Soshiro couldn’t even comprehend that it’d been a week since that talk at the manor with his father. His father’s words still echoed in his mind, as he waited outside a strange building for you.
“I wonder what your mama’s doing in a place like this.”, Soshiro stated calmly.
Tsugumi was happily sitting in the backseat playing with her Kerroppi doll before she looked up to stare at her father’s worried expression. She didn’t quite understand your reasoning for being here yet but she assured her father that it was okay. Eventually Soshiro’s squinted eyes opened seeing you slowly emerge from the building with a small book in your arms. You looked a bit defeated but you quickly smiled when you heard Tsugumi cheer for you from his car, “Hiya honey, have you been a good girl for your daddy today?”, you teased pinching her nose playfully before entering the car.
“I’ve been very good! Kerroppi can vouch for me!”, she giggled lifting up her little partner in crime.
“You okay?”, Soshiro asked softly, hoping to avoid straining the fragile relationship between you two.
You nodded your head softly to him, “I’m fine, was just talking to my therapist.”, you confessed.
He visibly tensed when you admitted what you’d been doing in that building, “Therapist? Are you sure you’re okay, if you need to talk I ca-“
“Hiro…I’m fine. Just trying to work through from my trauma.”, you whispered, trying to avoid letting Tsugumi hear you.
There was a shift in his eyes, you could see it, the worry was quickly replaced by something softer once that nickname had reached his ears. It’d been years since he last heard you say that, “Hiro…geez haven’t heard that in a long time.”, he sighed.
“What you think I forgot? Imagine forgetting a shortened version of your literal name.”, A small smile pulled at your lips again before you finally buckled yourself in, “So what’s this oh so important movie about?”
Soshiro’s face flushed red once he realized that this was actually happening, a family day. He was so busy overthinking every small thing that he hadn’t realized how quickly the time had finally come. He began driving to the theater and explained that Tsugumi had seen a trailer for some new Miku movie that she desperately wanted to watch. You physically reacted to the thought of being stuck in a vocaloid movie with weirdo teens and adults but you were both easily swayed by sweet Tsugumi.
“I guess we’ll go.”, you sighed in defeat.
Soshiro let out a laugh seeing your miserable reaction. He assured you that you’d both be suffering together while Tsugumi enjoyed herself. Eventually he parked and you entered the movie theaters as a family, Soshiro paid for the tickets while you paid for snacks. He really insisted on paying for everything but you denied his request with a stern look making him fall silent, you were setting up boundaries that he had to respect and for you he would. While you grabbed snacks at the concession stand Soshiro distracted Tsugumi at the arcade with a driving game. She was a terrible driver but at least she was having fun. They went three turns before Soshiro realized that you hadn’t made it back yet.
“Hey Tsu let’s go find your mama, she’s taking a little long.”, Soshiro explained putting Tsugumi down.
“She probably bought way too many snacks again. Silly mama.”, Tsugumi giggled rushing ahead to the concession stands again.
Soshiro quickly noticed why you were taking to long once he found you in the crowd. A man, probably your age, was pestering you with flirty comments and physical advances that definitely made you uncomfortable. Now it’d been a long time since Soshiro had ever felt jealousy bubble in his blood but he recognized the festering emotion well.
“Tsugumi, honey, go stand right there at the corner of the hallway right where you can see your mama. I’m gonna go be her knight in shining armor real quick.”
Tsugumi noticed the angry twitch in her father’s smile and giggled doing exactly as she’d been told. Soshiro slowly stalked forward, unsure of what he’d do or say next but certain that he’d pull you away without a doubt.
“Oh come on sugar tits, just give me your number I’m sure I’ll make it worth your time.”, the man smirked seductively at you, bile rose in your throat as you attempted to stay polite to the stubborn man.
“As I mentioned before I’m already here with so-“
“Dear, what’s taking you so long? You’ve had Tsugumi and I worried sick about you.”, your eyes slowly turned towards the familiar voice, the man harassing you following your eyes to see the iconic officer that was heavily known throughout Japan.
A smile graced your lips, your eyes softening at the sight of him, “Oh Honey, I’m sorry this man was holding me up. I’m making us late for our film aren’t I?”, you played along pretending to be upset.
Soshiro gently took drink holder from your hand and wrapped his free arm around your waist, “Thanks for keeping her company but we’ll be leaving now if you don’t mind.”, he smiled, his eyes opening slightly in a cold murderous glare.
The man cowered a bit but he stubbornly refused to back down, “You’re that Vice Captain from Third Division, what’s this pretty lady got to do with you? Surely you’ve got other things to worry about I’ll just-“
“Sir I insist that you stop bothering my husband and I. Our child is waiting to enjoy a film and you’re holding us up.”, you snapped, leaning closer into Soshiro’s side.
That seemed to be enough to make the man back down, Tsugumi quickly made an appearance hugging your leg while squealing ‘Mommy’ to you. Soshiro’s face had flushed red hearing you call him your husband, drunk off the sensation it brought he gently led you both away to the theater room to watch the film. Neither of you bothered looking back, Soshiro noticed the deep red coloring the tips of your ears and cheeks.
“Husband huh?”, he teased watching a shy smile pull at your lips.
“Oh shut up, I had to get him off of my case somehow. Besides it was easy to say considering how much I used to dream about it all those years ago.”, you confessed.
Soshiro body jerked to a halt once you’d said that, all this time you’d dreamt of marrying him back then that you actually practiced calling him your husband? Oh how his heart fluttered hearing such a genuine fact. He tried to remain calm but it was so hard when you now looked even more beautiful than back then. Soon your small unit found the seats Soshiro had bought but Tsugumi was adamant on a particular seat.
“This one is mine!”, she squealed hopping right into the seat she wanted.
Soshiro felt his face flush hot when he realized that the remaining two seats would leave you two sitting right next to each other. “Tsu, honey, don’t you wanna sit in the middle? That way mommy and I can both sit with you.”, he tried to bargain with her but Tsugumi refused.
“Just sit, trust me you aren’t winning that fight.”, you giggled taking the seat to the right of him.
Soshiro tensed realizing he’d be sitting right between the two of you, was he being crazy? Surely he could handle sitting next to you right? He nervously took his seat just as the trailers began to play, Tsugumi hummed quietly in her chair beside him. His curious eyes slowly moved to look at you, you seemed tired but softer than before.
“H-How was therapy?”
“It sucked, I cried like twice.”, you admitted softly, “Still raw about the whole process and my therapist told me it’ll be a while before I actually start making progress. He said I have too many walls up.”
Soshiro felt a sharp pang in his heart, “He?”
“He’s like 60 years old calm down.”, you shot him a sharp look.
Soshiro immediately reeled in his momentary jealousy and apologized, you explained what you talked about during the session. Your struggle with guilt, your insecurities about this whole situation, even your self sabotaging behavior. Soshiro listened carefully to each word, “Seems like a lot for you to handle on your own.”, he confessed.
“Yeah but…guess I’ve just been so used to being alone. I don’t mind it really.”, you whispered.
The movie began playing and you both fell silent, unspoken words still hanging in the air between you two. Tsugumi watched the movie in quiet awe, while the two of you stewed in your thoughts. While Soshiro wondered what he could do to help he felt a sudden weight on his shoulder, you’d fallen asleep during the film. He didn’t dare move, his body recalling the way you’d always used to do this on rides back to base after Kaiju missions.
“I miss you.”, he whispered softly, leaning his cheek atop your head while you slept.
For a moment his heart felt peace, this was the closest you’ve been to him since he found out about you and Tsugumi. You were putting just as much effort into this as he was but still you were struggling. He wanted to take some of that weight off of you if you’d let him, “We’ll get through this I promise.”, he swore, slowly moving to intertwine his fingers with yours.
Tsugumi sang along to the movie, Soshiro listened to her sing, and you slept against him. For now this was enough, even if he desperately craved more. Little by little, things would get better for the three of you.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A/n: it’s a calmer chapter because of the plot build up, Soshiro’s gonna have to prove he trusts you real soon.
Parings: Enjin x Fem! Reader (Romantically), Fem! Reader x Various (Platonically)
Summ. Word spreads quickly throughout HQ that you’ve fallen ill, everyone’s doing their part to help you recover. Goes to show how much your love and care has helped shape the place into a real home.
The hazy view of the room makes a certain blonde groan heavily, slipping between sleep and consciousness makes Enjin hyper aware of his surroundings. The bed is noticeably warmer for some strange reason, he stretches out over the mattress the back of his hand finding a strange damp spot in the sheets.
“What the hell?”, Enjin complains slowly turning towards the side where you should’ve been sleeping, the sleep in his body is immediately replaced by shock when he sees the state you’re in, “Oh shit, (Y/n)? (Y/n), baby, what happened to you? You’re sweating bullets.”
Enjin is up and shuffles to your side to see your sorry state, your sweating profusely and your skin is abnormally hot to the touch. He realizes quickly that you must’ve fallen ill over night. You can barely open your eyes to look at him, there’s a heavy weight to your chest that makes it hard to breathe, “I-It’s hot.”, you whimper.
Enjin frowns hearing the weakness in your voice, “I’m sorry Sugar, give me a second I’ll change things out. Here let’s get you out of these clothes and into something more comfortable.”, he speaks softly to you, helping you sit up and change. Enjin puts you into something lighter and more breathable to help with the heat, he changes out the soaked sheets as well before laying you back down in bed.
“You stay here sweetheart, I’ll go find you some meds.”, Enjin whispered softly to your weakened state.
Just before he turned to leave he felt a gentle tug at his wrist, golden eyes quickly returned to the bed to see you holding his wrist with all the strength you could muster.
“D-Don’t tell anyone I’m sick please.”, you begged softly to him.
His eyes softened at your request, you’d always been like this when it came to your health. You never wanted anyone to ever see you in such a vulnerable state especially now with all the young cleaners you’d taken under your wing. Enjin leaned down to place a loving peck on your cheek, you protested him kissing your lips due to being ill, before promising to be careful and leaving. Enjin snuck off using the shade of night to quietly shuffle through the empty halls of HQ, little had he known that a certain someone had decided to pay you a late night visit and found you in the midst of a coughing fit.
“Hopefully she gets over this soon, the kiddos will get suspicious if she’s gone too long.”, Enjin sighed to himself, already preparing a list of excuses to tell the younger cleaners so they’d leave you alone.
It didn’t take Enjin that long to get back from the infirmary with the medicine, but the moment his eyes caught sight of the open door he knew you’d already been caught.
“So what you were just gonna hide being sick again?”
Enjin’s face paled once he realized who was here, he rushed back into the room and sure enough August was at your bedside scolding you and placing a cold wet rag over your forehead. His goggles were completely off his head, his eyes sharp and angry at you for trying to hide your illness again like all that time ago.
“August, dude, get outta my room and let the missus sleep.”, Enjin huffed.
August quickly turned to see your partner standing in the doorway and shot an even sharper look right at him, “How long’s she been sick? Were ya just gonna hide this from us?”, August quickly turned against Enjin and got in his face.
Enjin glared right back at August and warned him to back away, “It’s just a fever, she got it overnight. What are you even doing in here in the first place?”
“Getting accurate measurements for her new face mask.”, August confessed nonchalantly.
You chuckled weakly in bed, recalling the time Rudo had told you he’d done the same thing to him while he also slept. Enjin rushed to your bedside and helped you sit up so you could drink the water he’d brought you and your medicine. August watched cautiously, already fearing you’d collapse again like last time. You slowly took your medicine and inhaled the cup of water before settling back down in bed. It was still a little hard to breathe but you’d get through it, “Don’t tell anyone Auggie.”, you warned. August promised he wouldn’t and decided to leave for now, he shut the door behind him before lifting his left hand and smiling.
“Whoopsie had my fingers crossed.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The mess hall was as chaotic as ever with everyone barely waking up to start their day. Messy hair, groggy voices, blurry eyesight galore and still Enjin wouldn’t change a thing about it. He hummed to himself while he worked on making your plate to take back up to the room, the kids had asked for you but he lied saying you were swamped with clothing and weapon repairs to deter them from visiting you. Sadly August had gone back on his word and used Eishia to announce your illness, she came barreling into the mess hall absolutely worried about you.
“Enjin! How could you not tell me that (Y/n) was sick? I could’ve gone up to help her, how high is her fever? Does she need fluids? What medicine are you giving her? Is she okay?”, Eishia bombarded him with frantic questions, unknowingly growing louder with each word alerting everyone else here in the mess hall.
Enjin could feel the intense stares of everyone in the room and groaned realizing he’d been caught.
“You said she was just busy, not that she was sick.”, Riyo hissed, already standing up from her seat.
Zanka walked over to Enjin and eyed the tray of food in his hands, “If she’s sick that stuff is way too heavy for her to eat. I’ll make her something lighter.”
Enjin tried to argue until he noticed several of the younger cleaners had suddenly disappeared, “Goddamnit! Eishia tell your brother I’m snapping his neck for blabbing.”
The tray of food was left forgotten while Enjin rushed back to the room and sure enough the rest of the kids were already there with you. Amo was changing out the warmed towel on your head for a cooler one while Rudo and Fu insisted on getting you anything you needed. Dear and Guita sat on the bed as close as they could to you while watching you with worried expressions.
“All of you get out.”, Enjin ordered.
Five pairs of eyes sharply turned to him, piercing glares all pointed to him for having lied to everyone. You weakly begged the kids not to be angry with the two of you, Rudo helped you sit up in bed so you wouldn’t strain yourself.
“It’s just a fever, I’ll be better soon.”, you promised.
Amo continued to fret over your temperature and asked Fu to grab you a face mask from the infirmary since you kept scooting farther away from them when you coughed. Zanka and Riyo arrived with food and medicine for you, Riyo lifted the two members of Team Child off the bed while Zanka gently placed the tray of food on your lap.
“Eishia told us to take your temperature, open up.”, Zanka ordered softly placing the thermometer under your tongue, he waited until it beeped with a reading before taking it out, “That’s a high fever, eat this and take your meds after, the rest of you get out. Riyo call Eishia to come start a fluid line on her.”
Riyo called Eishia on her blood choker immediately, informing the worried nurse about your high temperature while you slowly began eating the bowl of rice porridge Zanka had made for you. Fu also returned from the infirmary with a face mask for you and left it against your bedside while you ate.
“Can’t believe you got sick Momma, I knew you weren’t looking well during that last mission.”, Fu whined.
You smiled at him trying to ease his worry, you weren’t aware that it’d been that obvious that you were getting sick.
“Listen everyone, (Y/n)’s gonna be just fine. She just needs some rest, stop worrying yourselves so much.”, the handful of teens and kids in the room all shared similar looks before returning their gazes to you. You were always helping others, always repairing clothes or vital instruments until your body gave out. It was their turn to take care of you for a change.
“You’re on strict bed rest until you’re deemed better.”, Rudo finally spoke up, his gaze soft and worried for you.
Everyone else in the room shared similar expressions and nodded their heads in agreement. You sighed accepting that there was no way you were getting out of this until you were better. Eishia soon arrived to place an iv catheter in your veins to administer fluids for you, while you took fluids you decided to take a nap since the medicine was making you sleepy anyways. The room emptied out except for Enjin who remained by your side the rest of the time. Others visited while you were bedridden, your friends and August who snickered the whole time. It was a strange feeling being so worried over, you were so used to being the one caring for others that having that love and worry reciprocated felt strange to you.
“Just rest up and focus on getting better baby, everything will be back to normal soon.”, Enjin whispered softly to you, pressing a tender kiss to your forehead.
“I owe the kids cake, and you a whole bunch of sugar when this is all over.”, you teased weakly watching the tips of his ears redden. Enjin chuckled at your attempted flirt, you smiled letting yourself finally fall asleep.
By the third day the ache in your bones was gone, you began moving around trying to catch up on all your missed work but unfortunately for you your army of fledglings were on you like vultures. Guita and Dear struck first telling Bro that you were up and about. Bro found you in the hallway and shouted your name alerting everyone nearby that you were up, “Oh no you don’t little lady, back to bed!”, Bro scolded you.
“Excuse you, I’m feeling much better now. I need to catch up on-“
“Nope absolutely not, back to your room or I’m carrying you there myself.”
“Bro I’m serious, I’m ok-put me down!”
Bro tossed you over his right shoulder like a sack of potatoes and unfortunately for you he could tell you weren’t at a hundred percent yet. “If you were all good, you would’ve been able to get out of this already. Good job finding her you two.”, you looked up to see Guita and Dear fist bumping each other while you were carried off.
Oh this was going to be a rough week. You were feeling better, you were hydrated, you were full, hell you were moving and the coughs had gone down. You just hated feeling useless even if you were sick, everyone knew you were a workaholic but what could you do against an army of teens and kids that loved you so much? You tried to return to your craft room a few hours later only to be caught by Riyo who’d been sitting on your sewing desk awaiting your arrival.
“If you don’t get back to your room I’m telling Gris on you.”, she warned with a sweet smile.
You glared at her, “You’re so evil for that baby girl.”
Her cheeks flushed at the nickname but she didn’t waver, once again you returned to your room in defeat. A fresh batch of medicine and water by your bedside along with a tiny note, you opened it and saw a small message from Rudo inside.
‘I know it sucks being stuck in bed, hope this helps make you feel better.- Rudo’
Taped inside the note was a single piece of candy, Rudo’s favorite from his little secret stash, you smiled at the sweet gesture. You’d just have to work through this until you were better. Your “escape” attempts continued for a few more days, various people catching you trying to do odd things until you were escorted back to bed. Amo had caught you in the kitchen and ordered Fu to carry you back to the room, Gris had caught you in your sewing room working on outfits and weapon repairs, Zanka caught you outside attempting to train and shut that down immediately, hell even Semiu had become a snitch using her vital instrument to look for you when you strayed anywhere weird. The only one who hadn’t forced you to be bed ridden was Enjin, he watched you carefully making sure you were well rested and feeling better before ultimately deciding to sneak you out.
“Let’s go for a drive (Y/n), heard the Vianders have set up shop in the town nearby. They’ve supposedly got some good fabrics.”, Enjin snickered watching your eyes beam with excitement at the possibility of getting out of the base.
You worried the kids would catch you but Enjin had timed it perfectly so that everyone was eating breakfast in the mess hall when you both snuck out. Neither of you dared to fall behind while you headed down to the garage for the jeep, you two were gone before anyone could notice. Just like that the two of you were off on a little shopping date now that you finally felt better.
“You have no idea how bad I’ve needed to get out of bed.”, you groaned, sinking into the seat.
Enjin chuckled, golden eyes focused on the sandy roads of the Ground, “I know (Y/n), everyone meant well. You just haven’t been sick like that since the incident, all of us older members panicked and the little ones well they just didn’t wanna see their mama sick. I’m glad you’re better now.”
“Thank you for staying by my side the whole time. Maybe I’ll hold off on the fabrics today and just buy gifts for everyone that helped me out.”, your soft eyes noticed the proud smile stretch across your lover’s face.
Enjin’s collar began to rattle with an incoming call, he answered it and sure enough it was Semiu.
“Now where in the hell have you wandered off to with our little angel?”
“Took my little sugar bear out for a date. She’s feeling better and tired of being inside.”
“Oh so you thought it was cool to just up and leave without tellin anyone? I’ve got almost ten cleaners on my ass trippin out since she’s missing!”
“I know, I know, if I’d told the kids they would’ve denied my request. What they don’t know won’t kill em.”
Semiu slowly groaned into the call, you giggled softly to avoid being heard.
“We’ll bring you the latest copy of your magazine you love so much, just keep the kids off our case for a few hours.”, Enjin bargained in a tired tone but Semiu folded easily at the mention of her favorite magazine.
“Fine but next time you take my sweet lady anywhere I’m cutting you.”
“Excuse you, she’s my sweet lady not yours!”
“Agree to disagree, bye sweetheart I’ll talk to you later! Enjin I want her back in three hours, bye~.”
Before Enjin could speak again she’d already hung up, you laughed heartedly at his annoyed expression. “Careful now she might steal me away from you.”, you teased. Enjin shot you a sharp look much to your amusement, he swore he’d give you a reason not to think about such things.

“Momma’s home!”, Fu cheered through the hallways.
One by one each of the young cleaners reacted and began making their way to the garage. Fu was obviously the first one in your arms before anyone else, some of them wore sour expressions and others were just happy to see you.
“I brought everyone gifts, a thank you for taking care of me.”, you beamed lifting several bags of goods towards them.
Enjin took the heaviest bags in for you while you distributed your gifts to the kids. New incense sticks for Zanka, a new hair pin for Riyo, a bracelet for Amo, and honestly an unhealthy amount of sweets for the rest of the kids. Rudo had smelt them from the trunk and was already drooling at the scent of them. The kids each welcomed you back with a deep hug before taking their gifts and leaving, Enjin smiled and pressed a kiss to your cheek.
“What would these kids do without ya?”, he asked rhetorically.
You shrugged your shoulders and headed back inside with Enjin, the kids had set up the living room for movie night and everyone was already seated waiting on the two of you.
“Oh yeah movie night, I almost forgot.”, you cheered rushing to sit on the floor with Dear and Guita.
Everyone was getting comfortable when suddenly Zanka let out a rather aggressive sneeze, all eyes immediately turned him and your eyes quickly noticed the soft pink tint to his cheeks.
“Aww my little knight did you get sick taking care of me?”, you frowned seeing him try to brush off your concerns.
“I-I’m fine, it’s just allergies.”, he lied.
You snickered at his tough act, “I’ll make you all some tea, last thing I need is all of you getting sick.”
Zanka groaned for you to come back but everyone knew better than to go against your wishes, by the time you were back Riyo had already given him some medicine and Rudo had gotten him a face mask. You wrapped your cardigan around his shoulders and handed him a cup of tea just the way he liked it, “Don’t act tough on my account, trust me it doesn’t work.”, you chuckled recalling how the kids hadn’t fallen for your tough act the past few days.
Everyone laughed softly knowing what you meant before finally settling and starting the movie.
“It’s oddly quiet don’t you think?”, Gris wondered aloud, the men were playing a game of poker when he noticed the lack of noise.
Bro and Enjin shared a look before softly chuckling, only an hour into the movie and everyone in the room had fallen asleep. The shared anxiety between them all was gone now that you were finally back to normal, even if Zanka had gotten sick everyone could finally relax now that you were healthy again. That’s just how much they loved you, their precious Den Mother.
There’s a certain way that his voice always seems to snake its way into your ears, you loathe the way his breathy melodious words always manage to make a warm pit form in your stomach. Tamsy knew he bothered you, that’s why he enjoyed pestering you, as an apology he would always bury his thick fingers into your poor angry cunt as an apology. You always found yourself in this compromising position, slender fingers stirring up your poor creamy insides with each delicious touch, always forced to squirm under his touch.
“Careful now, you’ll hurt yourself if you move too much darling~.”, Tamsy gently spoke into your ear, curling his three fingers deep inside your honeyed cunt.
You lean your head back against his shoulder, thighs trembling as he brings you to a quaking release. The cold nip of his piercing against your neck barely grounds you to reality, an intense stream of cum gushes against his palm from your spasming cunt and all he can do is laugh in amusement.
“Filthy girl, look what you did. Who’s going to clean this mess hm?”, Tamsy huffs, golden eyes eagerly watching the way your chest heaves for breaths it can’t seem to grasp.
You snake your hand up his back until you reach the back of his head, taking a handful of his navy blue and blonde hair you tug his head back harshly making him groan in pleasure. Pretty cunt is still quivering and squeezing around nothing and you’re angrier now that he’s made you squirt.
“I’m all sticky and hot now because of you, you sweet talking little shit. Fuck, you annoy me, you better fuck me brainless or I swear I’ll kill you.”, you growled, tugging his hair back a bit more.
Tamsy hisses at the pain but relishes at the way your angry lips find their home at his neck sucking a deep purple mark on his scarred skin. It’s the only dominance you can muster up before he slides his pretty cock into your greedy cunt and leaves you brainless from the pleasure. He brings his slick covered hand up to his lips and drags a long stripe of his tongue over the juices still sticking to his skin. Although he talks big Tamsy can never seem to get enough of your taste. He knows you despise him but that’s what makes this all the more thrilling.
“No need to be so murderous my dear, would you like me to ravage you on your stomach or your back?”, Tamsy chuckles teasingly, returning his fingers to your aching clit rubbing lazy circles into the swollen sensitive bundle of nerves.
You don’t voice what you want, you just get into position with your legs spread for him. Golden eyes seem to glow with a hunger that can only be satisfied by the joining of your needy sexes.
“Hurry up, you’re taking too long.”, you hiss, Tamsy chuckles and works at the belt of his pants to free his aching cock from the confines of his clothes. He kneels down for one quick moment and smacks a sweet kiss against your clit making your thighs quiver to the ghostly delicate touch. He stands up quickly, rough hands on the soft meat of your thighs while he drags you towards his stiff cock. The tip playfully prods between your plump folds, teasing you with the prize you’ve sought after for the last hour.
“Tamsy Caines I swear if you don-oh fuck!”, you moaned, the sweet stretch of his cock splitting you open finally settling inside your warm cunt.
“Oh my sweet angel, isn’t this what you wanted? Tell me how it feels, go on tell me.”, he smiled cockily, hips already pounding away into your own to bury his cock deeper inside of you.
Your back aches off the desk, allowing him to go even further inside of you. You try your best to keep up the angry act but Tamsy knows you like the back of his hand, just a bit of cock in your horny cunt and your anger is washed away like a spring rain. You fall limp in his touch, allowing him to do whatever he pleases to you, Tamsy is unrelenting with his love. Deeper and deeper he buries himself to the hilt inside of you, relishing the wet sounds of your joined sexes, he loses himself to the greedy suction and warmth of your cunt.
“Wet dirty pussy, so sticky and dripping for me. Acting all angry and huffy when you could just ask for cock like a good girl instead of some annoying bitch.”, Tamsy growls leaning over you to nip possessively at your neck.
You squeal under his touch, arms wrapping around his shoulders to keep him close, your hips wiggling in rhythm to his thrusts to chase after more pleasure. Tamsy groans against your skin, twitching cock working its way into your tight canal to bring you even more pleasure. He has to center himself somehow but how can he when he’s so lost in your sweet cunt.
“O-oh my, I-I can’t focus. Such a dangerous beautiful cunt.”, he groans pulling on your wrist to drag you down on his cock.
The rhythm of his thrusts has you dizzy, you can barely see straight, the fat tip of his cock kissing the entrance of your cervix. Tamsy smiles and presses a kiss to your lips while grinding his hips sharply against your cunt. He’s deep, so painfully deep, making you feel so good. The inner muscles of your cunt are squeezing the cum out of him and who is he to deny your sweet cunt exactly what it craves. Tamsy pulls back until only his tip remains inside of you before slamming back into you at a delicious speed. Your toes curl in pleasure, your whole body jumps from the strength of his thrusts and somehow it’s still not enough at least it’s not until the knot in your stomach finally breaks. You gush over his cock with a quaking orgasm that send him right into his own, Tamsy pours himself inside of you. Hips stuttering every few spurts, ensuring his white pearly ropes of cum reach as deep as they can inside of you.
“Th-There you go sweetheart. Exactly what you wanted.”, he hums blissfully lost in the warm embrace of your cum filled cunt.
“M-More…that lame ass amount wasn’t enough to satisfy me.”, you growled through your shallow pants for breath.
Tamsy smiles wickedly at your hungry eyes, he’s still hard inside of you, of course he’ll give you more. “Anything for you, my sweet bratty angel.”
