You arrive in Hawkins as an adult with a reason to stay unnoticed. Henry Creel notices you anyway. He’s already hunting—but you become a complication he didn’t plan for. Henry x Fem!reader
Word count: ~2,700
Chapter contains: ◆ high tension, ✧ light fluff, ❖ intimate moments
You didn’t come to Hawkins looking for trouble.
You told yourself that as your car rolled past the familiar “Welcome” sign, paint chipped, letters faded. You told yourself it was temporary. A few weeks, maybe a month. Just long enough to help your sister get back on her feet. Long enough to make sure the house wasn’t going to swallow her whole after everything that happened.
Long enough to leave again.
The air felt wrong the moment you stepped out of the car. Not dramatic—just… heavy. Like static pressing against your skin. You shook it off, popped the trunk, and grabbed your bag.
“You okay?” your sister asked from the porch, her voice tired but trying.
“Yeah,” you lied easily. “Just the drive.”
That night, you lay awake on the pull-out couch, staring at the ceiling fan as it clicked unevenly. Hawkins was quiet in a way that felt unnatural, like the town was holding its breath. Every so often, the lights flickered, barely noticeable, but enough to make your pulse jump.
That was the first night you felt it.
The sense that someone was listening.
You met Henry Creel two days later.
It wasn’t dramatic. No thunder, no slow-motion recognition. Just a quiet, almost mundane moment that stuck to your ribs like it belonged there.
You were in the Hawkins public library, flipping through old newspapers. Your sister said it helped—knowing what had happened, putting names to rumors. You weren’t convinced, but it gave you something to do during the day.
“Those won’t tell you the truth.”
The voice was calm. Low. Too close.
You turned, startled, and nearly collided with a man standing just behind you. He was tall, dark hair neatly parted, eyes sharp in a way that made you feel like he’d already seen more of you than you’d offered.
“Sorry,” you said automatically. “Didn’t hear you.”
He smiled faintly. “Most people don’t.”
Something about that sent a shiver down your spine.
“You’re new,” he added.
“Visiting,” you corrected. “My sister lives here.”
“Unfortunate place to settle,” he said, glancing around the library as if it were complicit in something. “Hawkins has a way of… lingering.”
You studied him. “You sound like you’re speaking from experience.”
“I am.”
There was a pause. Not awkward—charged. You realized you were still holding the newspaper open, fingers tight around the edges.
“You looking for something specific?” he asked.
“Patterns,” you said before thinking. “I guess.”
His eyes sharpened. “Careful. Patterns look back.”
You laughed under your breath. “That’s ominous.”
“It’s honest.”
He extended his hand. “Henry.”
You hesitated just a beat before taking it. His skin was warm. Too warm.
“Y/N,” you said.
The moment lingered longer than necessary. His thumb brushed your knuckle before he let go, like it had been intentional. Like everything about him was intentional.
When he turned to leave, you watched him go without meaning to.
And when he paused at the door and looked back—just once—you felt it again.
That static hum under your skin.
You ran into Henry everywhere after that.
At the grocery store, standing in the aisle like he’d been waiting for you to notice him. On Main Street, walking just slow enough that you caught up. Outside the school fence, gaze distant, unreadable.
You told yourself it was coincidence.
But coincidence didn’t explain the way he watched you. Like you were a puzzle he hadn’t decided whether to solve or destroy.
“You’re avoiding something,” he said one evening, when you found yourselves sharing a bench outside the diner.
You raised an eyebrow. “Do I know you well enough for that kind of observation?”
“I know people,” he replied. “You carry responsibility like a weight. Older sibling.”
Your stomach flipped. “That obvious?”
“It’s in the way you look at the town,” he said. “Like you’re bracing for impact.”
You leaned back, arms crossed. “What about you?”
His gaze lingered. “I’m looking for… potential.”
The word landed strangely.
A waitress passed by, breaking the moment. When you looked back at him, his expression had softened just enough to seem human.
“You shouldn’t stay long,” he said quietly.
“Why?”
“People get hurt here.”
You scoffed lightly. “Bit late for that.”
He watched you closely, like your reaction mattered more than the answer itself.
What you didn’t know—what you couldn’t know—was that Henry had already marked his targets.
The kids. The ones who slipped through the cracks of Hawkins, carrying grief like an open wound. They were loud in the way broken things always were.
Usually, he didn’t hesitate.
Usually, there was no distraction strong enough to pull him away once he’d chosen.
But then there was you.
Your mind wasn’t loud. It wasn’t fractured. It was steady, layered, full of memories that weren’t rotting—just heavy. You thought of your sister first. Always. You thought of leaving. Of staying. Of wanting something you couldn’t justify.
You were infuriatingly grounded.
And you kept getting in his way.
He’d feel it when you were near—his focus slipping, his connection thinning. The noise dimmed when you spoke. When you laughed. When your eyes met his and didn’t flinch.
It wasn’t supposed to happen.
It did anyway.
The night the power went out across half of Hawkins, you found Henry standing outside your sister’s house.
You nearly dropped your keys.
“Jesus—Henry,” you said, heart racing. “You scared me.”
He looked… off. Jaw tight. Eyes darker than usual.
“I needed to see you,” he said.
“At my sister’s place?” you asked. “That’s not creepy at all.”
A corner of his mouth twitched. “I apologize.”
You studied him. “Are you okay?”
He hesitated.
“No.”
That honesty caught you off guard.
“You want to come in?” you offered, surprising yourself.
Inside, the house was quiet. Your sister was asleep upstairs. You led him to the kitchen, lit a candle when the overhead light refused to cooperate.
The flickering glow changed him—shadows pulling at his features, making him look older. Tired. Dangerous.
“You should stay away from me,” he said suddenly.
You crossed your arms. “That’s twice now you’ve said something like that.”
“And yet you keep inviting me closer.”
You swallowed. “You showed up.”
“Because you make it difficult to focus,” he said.
The air thickened. “On what?”
His gaze dropped to your mouth.
“On my purpose.”
Your pulse hammered. “And what’s that?”
He stepped closer. Not touching. Not yet. The heat between you was unmistakable.
“To end suffering.”
You let out a quiet breath. “That sounds… extreme.”
“Pain is inevitable,” he said. “But release isn’t.”
You tilted your head. “You talk like someone who’s tried to carry the world alone.”
Something flickered—anger, maybe. Or recognition.
“Touching me is a mistake,” he warned softly.
Your voice came out steadier than you felt. “Then stop standing so close.”
He didn’t.
You reached out before your fear could catch up, fingers brushing his wrist. Electricity shot up your arm. He sucked in a sharp breath, eyes closing briefly like he was restraining himself.
“Y/N,” he said, voice strained. “You don’t understand what you’re interrupting.”
“Then explain it,” you whispered.
His eyes opened. Intense. Hungry. Conflicted.
Instead of answering, he leaned in—just enough that your breath mingled, lips almost brushing.
It wasn’t a kiss.
But it was close enough to count.
When he pulled back, his hands were clenched at his sides.
“This can’t continue,” he said.
You nodded, though every part of you disagreed. “Okay.”
He left without another word.
The candle blew out on its own seconds later.
The next day, rumors spread. Another incident. Another kid hospitalized. Another near-miss that felt too close to home.
Henry avoided you.
And it hurt more than you expected.
Until he didn’t.
He found you behind the old high school gym, the air buzzing faintly. His composure was gone—hair messy, breath uneven.
“I tried,” he said. “I really did.”
Your chest tightened. “Tried what?”
“To ignore you.”
He closed the distance in two strides, hands bracketing your hips, not rough—but firm. Grounding.
“This is a distraction,” he said against your ear. “A dangerous one.”
You swallowed. “Then why are you here?”
“Because when I’m with you,” he admitted, voice low, “the noise stops.”
That did something to you.
“Henry,” you whispered.
His lips brushed your jaw. Barely. Enough to light you up without crossing the line.
It was intoxicating. Terrifying.
Somewhere in the distance, a siren wailed.
He froze.
“I have to go,” he said sharply, pulling away like he’d been burned.
“Wait—”
He looked back, eyes glowing with something unreadable. “You should leave Hawkins.”
“And you?” you asked.
His smile was sad. “I can’t.”
He vanished into the trees, leaving the air crackling in his wake.
You stood there long after he was gone, heart pounding, knowing one terrible truth:
You weren’t just distracting a monster.
You were becoming part of the reason he hadn’t finished what he started.
And in Hawkins, unfinished things were the most dangerous of all.
12 Days of Ficmas 2025 Day 1: Roasting Marshmallows
Fandom: One Piece
Pairing: Portgas D. Ace x Reader
CW/TW: None
Word Count: 265
Summary: You and Ace sneak into the kitchen for some late night snacks.
It was late at night on the Moby Dick, but you and Ace were still awake. The two of you snuck into kitchen for some midnight snacks. There would probably be hell to pay in the morning when Thatch found out, but that was a tomorrow problem. Once you both were satisfied with your hauls you returned to the crow's nest where you had been hanging out to divvy up the snacks.
"Here," he says as he tosses you a bag.
"Marshmallows?" you guess when you feel how squishy the bag is.
Every now and then I like to just stare at him

calling sanji "bro" or "dude" by mistake and he gets such a ridiculously offended look on his face like you've said something so bizarre he cant even wrap his head around it. he tilts his head and pouts until you call him something sweeter and then he'll pounce on you, wrap his arms around your neck and pepper one thousand kisses onto your face.

thinking about how shanks would be like when you’re pregnant with his child…
he’d be a mix of quiet strength and mischievous warmth - the same way he commands his crew but softens completely around you. everyday, he watches you carefully, like you’re the most precious treasure he’s ever laid eyes on.
not just you, but the life blooming inside of you, too.
he fusses over your every need, but never like you’re fragile - more like a captain tending to his crew:
when you stand too fast, he’s instantly there, steadying you with his hand and a teasing grin, brow raised, “careful, you’ve got precious cargo now.” and even as he jokes, his eyes never leave your face, always alert, analysing it for any sign of discomfort or pain.
the crew? they’re on high alert, benn carries your plate before you can even reach for it, lucky roux tries to sneak in healthy meals (which shanks secretly finds hilarious), and hongo stands watch like a loyal guardian, waiting to leap into action with his medical tools if you sneeze wrong.
your nausea though, hits hard sometimes, and shanks tries everything - singing off key sea shanties to your belly, offering lemons and pickles (sometimes both at once, just to see your reaction), and holding your hair back with the gentle patience of a man ready to be a father.
he’s hopelessly earnest, but it makes your heart ache with endless love every single time.
at night, when the world is quiet and the ship sways gently on the waves, he pulls you close, resting his hand over your bump whispering stories about luffy - the stubborn, fiery kid, his voice softens, warm and full of pride.
you smile against his chest, feeling a peace you never knew you needed.
this is the family he’s always dreamed of, and he’s ready to protect it with everything he has.
a/n: you could never convince me that he's a deadbeat
45-47/??? Pictures of Sanji
How it feels when you're trying to find a fanfiction to read of a character but 90% of it is just pure smut or NSFW content
Not sure if your taking request but I have this angsty and sweet request
Tw: not eating
Reader came from a town where bandits took over their food source and cause people to die from starvation one thing her family would do if they were lucky to get food they would make them eat it no matter if it's a food they hate. Her family passed so she does this thing where she sometimes feels unworthy of eating...and (this is personal preference but I genuinely don't like Mac n cheese love if you include that) one day Sanji makes Mac n cheese and reader feels nervous cause she hates it but she makes herself eat it cause she doesn't have the heart to tell sanji she doesn't like the food! (I also like the fact sanji would always find her hiding to make sure she eats and he sits so she knows she eats.
Something You'll Enjoy
Fandom: One Piece Pairing: Sanji x Fem!Reader Rating: SFW Word Count: 2713 words Warnings: References to starvation, and death by starvation. Reader has trauma and an unhealthy relationship to food.

You didn't have enough.
There wasn't enough.
Anxiety bubbles deep within in you as you and your family stare at the meager harvest of potatoes. As per the bandit's rule, every family with a farm is required to fork over 90% of harvests. You hear your father sigh softly, kneeling in front of you with a reassuring smile to comfort you, and your mother, holding onto your younger siblings tightly. It took forever to get in the door after.
