word count: 3.31k
authors note: okay so I have been DYING to get back into writing but haven’t written a full fic in almost a year so pardon the writing cobwebs, welcome to the new account and the only right way to christen it was with this man, so when I saw @horanghyuck’s request post the ideas were already brewing. if you would like to request anything, you can do so here 🤍 (also i’m still processing this ending)
You didn’t expect to be angry.
Steve had been apart of your life for as long as you could remember, being next door neighbours the two of you had formed this sort of codependent bond where if one of you went somewhere, the other would follow.
Sometimes it was to your own detriment yet neither one of you seemed to care about that, usually opting for these minor arguments instead. And as everyone prepared for the final mission, it felt like chaos at the Squawk building. Everyone was in their own groupings and as Dustin moved to be with his friends, it left you and Steve alone.
Things had been chaotic between the both of you recently as the last month and a half had you thinking he wanted Nancy back. The boy always seemed excited to offer her his attention and time, leaving you with what felt like leftovers that not even a hungry dog would want.
What almost annoyed you more was that you knew you shouldn’t care. But you felt like you were allowed to as the universe decided to make you fall in love with him. And you had been, all through the rise and fall of Stancy.
When they broke up and Steve was finally ready to put himself out there again, you swore you were going to take the opportunity to put yourself out there. But while you gave yourself the best pep talk you could muster, Steve found himself in a flurry of girls. One after another convinced that they were the one.
And the more girls he had, the further they got from being you. Chipping away at any confidence you had to confess what you felt. With that you had decided that if your silence meant you kept Steve as a friend, it was a deal you’d take.
Which didn’t seem to matter in the moment because all you felt was jealousy towards the Wheeler girl. She was able to break his heart in so many ways, leaving the boy crying on your shoulder and falling asleep in your bed most nights after the breakup, as he couldn’t be alone.
But most of all you couldn’t fathom how Steve would want to go back down the romantic bridge that burnt him so badly before “you sure this wouldn’t be better with Nanc?” He asked pointing to the gun you had.
There was little to no effort from your side to stop the scoff that left your lips “oh yeah because she totally needs more protection.” You almost wanted to laugh “no-” Steve wanted to argue but you seemed all that much faster than him.
You raised your hand to stop him “look I know that she’s your precious little Nancy but could you pull your head out of your ass to see that there are other people around?” Your words were sharp, the fear you felt about the mission was mixing with the annoyance you felt “you are such a selfish prick.” It was meant to cut deep, and when you paired with hitting him with your shoulder as you pushed past him, Steve got the message.
Jonathan felt awkward having had heard the conversation, but it did make him feel better that he wasn’t the only one who had felt like Steve was teetering on some boundaries “guys we need to get out there.” He announced making your head snap around to where he was stood.
Steve shook his head but you beat him to the punch “I’ve got nothing left to say.” You grumbled as you walked out to where Robin was stood “you okay?” She furrowed her eyebrows sensing something was wrong.
You rolled your eyes “I just don’t know why even at the almost end of the world I’m still surprised by him.” The back doors opened causing the cool air to hit your face, the girl couldn’t help but feel sorry for you. She had been through so many of your rants over recent years after she almost immediately picked up on the feelings you had for the boy.
The tower to the abyss helped you push Steve to the back of your mind as you couldn’t see the top of the tower even as your neck was bent all the way back “no sign of an evil moving planet.” Lucas stood next to you lowering his binoculars.
It was a good sign “well that’s good because this is gonna take some time.” He motioned to the ladders leading to where the group needed to be on the tower “alright, we should spilt up and use both ladders. Don’t rush, pace yourselves.” You tuned out his reminder to use the platforms as rest points as you felt bile in your throat.
There wasn’t a worse time for them to come as you hated heights with a passion “don’t worry okay.” Robin spoke softly squeezing your hand before she went to the other side “I’ll be right behind you okay.” Steve placed his hand on your shoulder.
You cringed like you had been burnt “you sure she wouldn’t want you with her?” In a way it was almost ironic as you had never moved up a ladder quicker in your life. Your efforts to put distance between you and Steve made you tune out every creak of the tower.
By the time you got up to the top of the tower Steve was still hot on your tail “I’m not going to fight you up here.” He grumbled still pissed off that you were annoyed at him “good so go away.” Your tone eerily mirrored one of an irritated sibling who swore the fight was because their sibling decided that personal space wasn’t a thing.
The two of you were so caught up in your spat that you didn’t even notice that the needle wasn’t centred “guys?” Will’s voice made you both look up to see it “shit.” You muttered knowing that everything had seemed to straight up until that point.
Lucas was the other one to see it “no no no!” He placed his hand on his head letting panic take over “it’s not lining up!” You knew you were screwed in that moment and it was as if every other alternative suddenly sounded so much better.
The fear in Will was obvious from a mile away “if the abyss hits that needle-” “this tower is going down.” Mike finished off his friends thought making your mouth go dry.
The vibrations began to pick up in the already shaky floor beneath you “hey chief we’re going to need El to stop this planet. On the sooner side please.” Dustin spoke into his walkie talkie.
It felt like forever until he responded “how soon?” The walkie picked up minor bits of static while the voice popped through the speaker “thirty seconds?” And thus began the longest half minute in your life.
At this point you swore it had been longer than that when you dug your nails into your palm. Your heartbeat echoed in your ears as you watched the abyss slowly edge closer to the needle before the air shifted.
It was as if the wind changed direction and knocked the tower off kilter as something clearly moved “ask him again Henderson!” Your voice broke not allowing you to even try to mask how you felt.
Dustin nodded agreeing with you “what’s going on in there?” The urgency in his voice was urged by the panicked look on your face “I don’t know guys I can’t talk to her.” Hopper sighed evidently feeling your panic too “I gave her the signal.” He added as if it was meant to ease anyone’s nerves.
As nothing happened you snatched the walkie talkie out of the younger boys hand “and we’re about to be squashed by a moving planet so give the damn signal again!” You yelled as the vibrations grew stronger and the rhythm got louder “shit!” Dustin took the walkie back just as the ground shifted.
The ground all ducked as the tower was hit by the abyss. Echoes of metal vibrating from the collision travelled down the tower as the needle came down on the one side “grab onto something!” You called out to everyone ending next to Dustin.
You both watched in what felt like slow motion as Steve fell back “Steve!” You both screamed watching him go over the edge as he grabbed on the metal grate.
His grip wasn’t strong enough and as a concoction of fear of losing him and having to watch Dustin lose another friend made you not think clearly. You didn’t hesitate as you slide down the grate flooring grabbing his hand just as he let go of the floor “hold on!” You begged now regretting the real lack of an upper body workout routine you had.
You felt hands on your waist to help steady you so that you both didn’t go over “I’ve got you.” Jonathan gritted through his teeth as there was a joint effort in getting Steve back up.
The Harrington boy landed on top of you and if you didn’t feel like you were about to have a heart attack you swore you would have hugged him. Even if you were beyond irritated with him mere minutes ago. From above Steve looked at you with this look you had never seen before. It was like he was studying ever mole and inch of your face, drinking in your features like he’d never have the chance to see them again “so as much as I hate to break whatever this is up.” Jonathan cleared his throat, looking awkwardly between you both.
Neither one of you seemed to want to break the trance you were in until Dustin pushed you both apart “we can have our whole touchy reunion once we save the world.” He spoke as if it was the most obvious thing “uh yeah who is going up first.” You motioned to the abyss as Steve and you both stood up not aware of how much was going to happen in the next few hours.
Later that night you swore that you had scrubbed your skin to the point where you were surprised you had any left. The lavender scent of your bath salts and bubbles invaded your nostrils trying to help you forget all that happened.
Your parents were going to be back on their way from Florida next week so that meant you were left with your thoughts for that time. You tried to convince Robin to come back to yours for a sleepover but she was staying with Vickie.
Part of you envied the connection she found, but the biggest part of you was happy that they were happy together. You spent hours up late at night talking to the girl about everything because she had slowly become your person.
And that wasn’t to say that you had grown apart from Steve, but there were certain things that you couldn’t loop the boy into. Like how you had a crush on him since you were 14 when he finally got his growth spurt.
Or how every girl who he brought home slowly felt like it was killing you.
“Why don’t you just tell him?” Robin asked watching the door to the Family Video Store shut. Steve had left for his third date with a girl called Mary.
The brunette had seen how quiet you would get each time the girls were around but it seemed that Mary made you feel all that much worse “because what good would it do Rob?” You huffed placing the rag the boy had given you on the counter.
You spent your free time at the movie rental after coming home insisting that school was all too much for you. Your father never even wanted you to go to university, your mother tolerated it so now as you sat at home focusing on art it was suffice to say you were beyond a disappointment.
Steve appreciated your return to Hawkins more than anyone else, even Robin “he’d start to realise that all of those ladies are like so not for him.” Her words made you snort as you threw your head back letting a laugh out.
Sure you wished that he’d see you in that light but you knew you were just his friend “ain’t no way that I am gonna end up being his momma to those six nuggets.” You knew all about his desires for that RV and his six kids since the two of you were kids yourselves.
Robin softly elbowed you “I wouldn’t count yourself out so fast.” She motioned to the video that had a clear view to the parking lot where Steve just so happened to be looking back at you “no let’s be so clear this is a crush that’s gonna kill me.” You turned back to the counter not wanting to get your hopes up.
You were in the middle of drying your hair when there was a knock at the door. It snapped you out of your trance, causing you and your towel to head downstairs. The pounding only increased, causing you to grow annoyed “what could possibly be-Steve?” You whipped the door open and dropped the towel you were using on your hair to the floor.
The boy looked stressed and somewhat disheveled “I know you probably still think I’m ass but Henderson’s with his mom and I really don’t want to be alone right now.” The boy scanned your face in an attempt to know if he made the right decision or not.
But luckily for him it didn’t take you long before you pulled the boy into a hug. The fresh scent of your shampoo crawled into his nose while his arms wrapped around you.
They held you for long enough just to make sure you couldn’t slip through them. He too had showered and as his hands raked through your hair the softly soothing gesture couldn’t help but make you begin to cry. It started out as a soft sob yet quickly increased “hey hey hey what’s wrong?” Steve asked quickly cupping your cheeks in his hands.
Your lip quivered looking at the older boy “I almost lost you.” You felt stupid for crying about it given everything that had happened over the last few hours “and the last thing I had said to you was that you were a selfish prick.” You sobbed making him pull you back into a hug.
Sure the comment stung but he knew he sort of deserved it “y/n you saved my life.” Steve soothed you as he let out a sigh “and you weren’t all that wrong.” He knew it wasn’t the worst thing you could have said.
It made you chuckle as your tears waned “there’s that laugh I love hearing.” The boy cheered stepping back so that there was space between the two of you once more.
Steve brought his hand up to wipe your tears away with his thumb “so are you gonna invite me or do you just want to stand out here all night?” There was a hint of amusement in his voice as you nodded.
Your bedroom had always been Steve’s safe place but now he felt like he was out of place “Y’know I never thanked you for what you did on that tower.” Steve licked his lips as you looked up at him “you would have done it too.” You brushed it off as he shook his head.
The boy didn’t know how to articulate it “I mean you did it without even thinking.” He admired you for being so brave “cause you’re my Stevie.” Your voice was innocent as you rested against your headboard.
Your hand reached for his “and besides someone has to make sure you’re alive for those six little nuggets you want so bad.” A grin formed on your lips when he cringed hearing that term come back to bite him like he had a feeling it would.
Steve ran his fingers through his hair “for the record I wasn’t thinking about Nancy back at the Squawk.” You were left quiet wondering where he was going “I was thinking about you.” The air felt warm as the boy forced his lips into a soft smile “because if you didn’t have a gun, then just maybe you wouldn’t be able to be in a danger zone.” To Steve, if you weren’t able to be a strong attacker then you wouldn’t sacrifice yourself.
You didn’t know what to do “well now I feel like I really should be grateful I saved ya back there.” You cracked the mistimed joke knowing that it was poorly timed “I thought about all the times I haven’t said before the world almost ended.” Steve decided to ignore your comment, needing to keep his nerves low and that was the only way to not chicken out.
He traced the lines on your palm, a habit he picked up when you were four and his parents started fighting “I haven’t said so much to you.” Steve felt his chest get tight “and I mean I was so close to never being able to.” You moved closer to him so that the two of you were almost on top of each other.
You felt almost hypocritical as there were things you hadn’t said either “I love you.” The words were sweet as he brought his hand up to your cheek, letting the warm comfort you “and not just as a friend.” It felt like word vomit from the boy.
A smile formed on your lips “Steve-” the boy held his hand up to stop you “no I’m serious, I was always trying to find this missing thing with partners and I realised I’m missing you.” You swore you must have been dreaming because it was all you wanted to hear.
Steve mistook your silence for apprehension “I don’t know what the future brings with everything that happened but I know I want you next to me.” He nodded “we can get an RV and travel the country letting them see your great art.” Steve motioned to the drawings that covered your walls.
“I can’t promise you the stars but I will promise to do my best to get you them.” You grabbed both of Steve’s hands finally deciding to shut him up “is it the right time to tell you I love you too or can I just request that you kiss me?” Your words made him blink almost as if you had been a figment of a dream of his.
It was almost ironic that it was something that you had both thought about for so long yet here you both were, not doing anything “I think we should make that happen.” Steve nodded as you brought your hands to cup his cheeks.
The kiss was slow and sweet at first, being everything you wanted as the boy made you feel like you were the only girl in the world. You swore you could have imagined what this would have been like but it was so much better than anything you could have thought of.
So as calm finally sprinkled over Hawkins for the first time in forever, your house did not rest that night. Because as Steve pulled you on top of him and was only met with a squealed “Steve!” It was clear that the two of you were going to be making up for lost time. As now that Steve had you, he wasn’t planning on letting you out of sight for a while.
So it was a good thing that when things went back to some sense of normalcy, Hawkins not only needed a sex ed teacher but also an art one too.
You could use this as a starting point for a Nathan AU.
See the only reason why I’m hesitant to do that is because that one is getting a pt2 and I kind of want to keep the universes separate.
And also I kind of like the concept of Nate and the AU mc having some kind of lore like they could have once been teammates or used to date before he got drafted or something like that
summary: a headcannon of what dad trevor is like as he falls in love with his daugthers ballet teacher.
request: “can you make something where trevor falls in love with his kids ballet teacher?” - anon
warnings: none
authors note: this was the first time in a while that I have done some dad content and the first time for some trevor dad content!
ꕥ girl dad!trevor immediately found the best ballet teacher in the city for his baby girl. he was staying up all night to do research on it and you too, he had to make sure the teacher was a normal person after all. and if it wasn’t good enough for the people of Google then it wasn’t good enough for his little girl!
ꕥ girl dad!trevor didn’t think you’d be so gorgeous when he walked into the class the first time. watching you interact with his daughter as you crouched down to introduce yourself to her first made him know you were the right choice to be her teacher.
ꕥ girl dad!trevor who had to come later than he liked to admit it some days because of practice was in awe of the fact that you could get his daughter to sit still. the two of you were always either drawing or just talking, sometimes you would even braid her hair for her.
ꕥ girl dad!trevor wished that he could could have given his daughter a mom like you. but after her birth mom left he was scared to ruin the friendship that you had created with his daughter.
ꕥ girl dad!trevor had to watch his daughter fall in love with you to the point where she had called you mom more than once. you never had the heart to correct her as you could see that the mom was never around.
ꕥ girl dad!trevor came to the studio the day you cancelled class because he knew something wasn’t right. you lived on top of the studio so you came down as sick as a bug. you thought he would run again but he instead stayed to nurse you back to health, Trevor went as far as to bring you back to his so you didn’t need to be alone when his daughter came back home.
ꕥ girl dad!trevor kissed you the night the girls did their winter showcase. his daughter had been stood by the curtain when he went to say goodbye and she just squealed “kiss her daddy!” and who was he to say no to his daughter, especially when you smiled at her words.
ꕥ girl dad!trevor got the surprise of his life when you showed up with his daughter at a game. she was cheering her heart out as she was in her ‘Daddy 11’ jersey and she had convinced you to wear one of Trevor’s old ones. that was the first time that you wore his jersey and he swore that he needed you in it all the time. that night he also scored a hatty.
ꕥ girl dad!trevor is always at your class performances in the front row. constantly bringing a bouquet for both you and his daughter.
ꕥ girl dad!trevor loves that you love his daughter. he couldn’t have asked for a better woman to be in his daughters life so he is forever grateful for the impact you have had on her. you may not be the woman who birthed her but you treat her like she is your whole world.
ꕥ girl dad!trevor watched you become a momma bear after some girl in his daughters class said her mom didn’t love her because she left. from that moment on you were showing up to all the class events and were sat in the front row too.
ꕥ girl dad!trevor said I love you after he came to your apartment to see you stress cleaning after he left the game with an injury. you not being able to handle it if he was not okay really did make him laugh because he had never seen someone care so much for him.
ꕥ girl dad!trevor convinced the girls to all help him in proposing to you. it was after their class when the music changed and Trevor appeared with a velvet ring box as he got down on one knee. you didn’t remember half of his speech, the girls keep on giggling going “say yes!” as they waited for you to nod.
ꕥ girl dad!trevor cried your entire wedding! he thought you looked so beautiful and he felt so lucky to be the man you got to call yours.
ꕥ girl dad!trevor sometimes stays up as he watches you sleep, hoping that one day the two of you would be able to make more additions to your family.
hello ladies and gentlemen and all those in between!
I’ve been posting far more periodically on here than I would have hoped but that’s because I’m now not only a student but also employed! And have spent the entire year basically on and off with the most annoying bouts of flu that I am hoping I am now out of.
You will all be happy to know that your favourite South African Kiwi (me) did indeed watch her annual midlife crisis live this year when the Springboks went to New Zealand!
While I have been writing for some works that we had in the requests, which I am hoping to get out to all of you soon. I have been toying with some ideas recently which of course I wanted to run by you all.
So for those of you that don’t know, I had made a second account, @g0ldendesiree which I was going to use for tennis and formula one oneshots which I have also been working on writing BUT I have also been reading a lot of works and I think I am going to turn this account into a sports account where we will collectively pick the sports I write for (obviously the NHL stuff will remain) but then that second account turns into one for movies and tv show characters? I sort of just guess what would you guys like to see if we do go down this route (I’m like 97% sure that I want to do it this way)
On a real note I do love and appreciate all of you, and have been catching up on everything that has gone on/is going on but I just want to say thanks for being so patient with me 💗

ꕥ wisconsin!cole has always been a pain in your ass. you met him at college on the social media team for the gophers ice hockey team. even in those two years of knowing him during that time, he had started by trying to hit on you and since then everything turned to shit.
ꕥ wisconsin!cole saw you on your first day in montreal and he swore he was dreaming. but when you were introduced as the new person on the social media team it felt a bubble was burst above him.
ꕥ wisconsin!cole all of a sudden went from barely putting up with doing the social media stuff for the team to always being the first person to volunteer when you’re the one asking. sometime he will even just come to your cubicle to talk to you. even if you sit there and snap at him, thinking he is only there to annoy you.
ꕥ wisconsin!cole watches his teammates tease him because clearly cole can’t take a hint as you can’t stand him. but what they really think about is how funny it would be if you guys started dating each other.
ꕥ wisconsin!cole loves pushing your buttons he will find you on a night out just to interrupt your conversations with the pretty boys you are trying to flirt with. cole has a shit eating grin as the boys leave you because deep down he wants you to be his, even if he doesn’t know how to explain that to you.
ꕥ wisconsin!cole watched you eventually have enough when you pulled him into a bathroom, complaining about how irritating he is until he finally shut you up with a kiss “you’re so hot when you’re mad.” He laughed, not caring how you would react so imagine his surprise when you kissed him again.
ꕥ wisconsin!cole isn’t above pulling you into his lap when you start getting mouthy because of course someone needs to put you in your place. and if he has to pull you over his knee to do that then so be it. he loves how responsive you are as he spanks you.
ꕥ wisconsin!cole loves hearing how you beg for him. at first you were so loud and proud but before you knew it you were folding and begging him to make you cum and babbling on for how you craved his cock.
ꕥ wisconsin!cole didn’t need to tell his friends about how you two got together. there were scratches on his back one day after a game and the look he gave you said everything that everyone needed to know.
ꕥ wisconsin!cole loves telling people about how your taste in colleges is your downfall, even if it’s what brought you to him.
ꕥ wisconsin!cole won’t say it but he loves seeing your head appear over your camera sometimes. you’re his pretty girl so he wishes that you’re in front of the camera rather than behind it. he does show you that though when he takes your camera while you’re
ꕥ wisconsin!cole is so down bad for you that if you asked him to crawl to you one day he would absolutely do it. but for now he is keeping that one to himself, some secrets deserved to be earned.
ꕥ wisconsin!cole knows that he still teases you now, but deep down he really is falling in love with you. even if he knows that your future children will not be supporting your college teams if he has anything to do about it.
ꕥ wisconsin!cole made a bet with you where the loser had to wear the others teams jersey for a walk in so when the badgers lost cole got to walk in, with your jersey. but what he hadn’t mentioned was that he stole your old media team quarter zip that even had your name on the back of it.
ꕥ wisconsin!cole knew he had truthfully won because the moment you got back into the car your lips were on his neck and he was surprised that he even got you both back in one piece because god you wanted him, and every inch of him.

authors note: it's not everyday we get a piece of pure fluff from me, enjoy it while it lasts... All jokes aside though this is the last piece that came from the 500 celly so to everyone that was apart of it and to those of you who have been around and stuck around since then I am forever grateful 💓
You were meant to be totally off limits.
As Nicks little sister from the moment you stepped off that plane, it seemed that the whole city knew who you were and you hated it. Everyone but one person seemed to care and you gravitated towards that.
Juraj had met you before Nick introduced the two of you to each other. And that was what you thought a large part of the appeal was. He was the man who came into your new favourite place to get coffee at the same time as you each day. Juraj was always just wanting to talk to you, and it meant that everything started so sweetly.
After a few weeks of that you had developed feelings for him, and luckily for you he had developed them for you too. He spent so much time trying to figure out how to ask you out that eventually you came out and did it yourself.
Juraj had walked you back to your apartment after another session at the cafe “so this is you.” He shoved his hands into his pockets “wait J.” Your voice was soft as he cocked his head.
You felt yourself grow nervous as he smiled “you trust me?” You asked, almost scared of the rejection “of course.” The hockey player nodded sending you a smile.
Juraj watched you rest your hands flat against his torso. You took a deep breath in before you pushed yourself into your tippy toes so that you could kiss him. It took him a moment but he followed suit. His hands wrapped around your waist ensuring that you couldn’t pull back a moment too soon “want to come in?” Your voice was airy as he picked you up, carrying you into your apartment.
That was four months ago and neither one of you looked back. Sure there were moments where you both wished that the kisses that you both shared, didn’t have to be behind closed doors in secret. But you knew how much much more complicated things would have become if people found out.
And besides there was something exhilarating to the both of you about the possibility of being caught. Like the hickies that came a little too close to your neckline, and the scratches you left on his back for his teammates to see made you squirm. You were right under everyone’s noses yet nobody seemed to have caught you out yet.
Juraj kissed your lips, slotting into the place between your legs “god you know how gorgeous you are zlatko?” He asked resting his head on your shoulder.
The hockey player wasn’t ashamed to inhale your scent, with your perfume making him feel feral as it was your signature scent “you’re sweet baby.” You smiled running your fingers through his hair.
These lazy mornings were what you appreciated so much when the boys had time off. Juraj always knew that you would be at his as Nick shared the schedules with you. The Slovakian boy always used to be someone who got ready and went in the morning.
But with you he just loved getting to savour every moment that the world presented to him. From morning cuddles to being sat in the kitchen as cooking a basic meal ended up taking far longer than it was ever meant to.
That’s how you landed up where you were “how about we put this stuff on the counter and go back to bed?” Juraj proposed rubbing a circle on the inside of your thigh “who said anything about us needing the bed to do that?” A smirk formed on your face as you shit back.
Juraj shook his head “you are so dangerous.” He mumbled dipping his head so that your lips were almost touching his “and that’s why you love me no?” You taunted him, bringing your hand to the back of his head as you brought him down into a kiss.
Nick walked into the apartment with Cole as they could hear music coming from Juraj’s kitchen “dude please tell me you are cooking something!” Cole let out a whine as he heard his stomach grumble.
Your eyes went wide pulling away from Juraj “you said they weren’t coming until later!” You whisper yelled, pushing yourself off of the countertop in a panic “they were meant to!” Juraj nodded hearing their footsteps grow louder.
So like any logical person he opted to use his own frame to hide you “why are you guys here so early?” Juraj was nervous as he let out a cough, seeing his teammates stood by the door.
Nick smirked as he placed the six pack of beer down “because I wanted to prove that I was right.” He explained, nudging Cole “he thinks you’re dating y/n but I said you wouldn’t do that.” The Canadian explained as he took his cap off.
Your eyes went wide knowing that you had been caught “what makes you think that?” Juraj crossed his arms keeping his body where he stood so you wouldn’t be found “the fact that her phone is right there and you look like you’ve seen a ghost.” Nicks points were things that Juraj was prepared to fight and swear blindly that they were just coincidences.
So you squeezed his shoulder before he had a chance “hi guys.” You sighed walking out from behind him “it was true!” Cole let out a gasp letting his eyes travel between you and your boyfriend.
But for you and Juraj, your eyes stayed on Nick who remained silent “aren’t you going to yell?” You asked making Juraj’s eyes go wide, not feeling like his captain needed the encouragement “because that is going to solve everything?” Nick couldn’t help but laugh as he ran his fingers through his hair.
He took a deep breath “I mean maybe if I hadn’t known-” it was now your turn to be shocked “you knew! For how long?” You were almost scared to hear his answer.
Nick clicked his tongue “for like two months.” You felt your eyes go wide, that was basically the whole relationship “you forget that you are not slick if you smile at your phone like an idiot.” Juraj smiled at you hearing that.
But the ammunition to tease you was short lived “and you’re not better!” Nick pointed his finger at him “you look like you’ve got hearts in your eyes whenever she walks into a room.” As funny as Nick found it, it was more sad to see the two of you act like love sick puppies than anything else.
You blushed at the words turning to hold Juraj’s hand, giving it a comforting squeeze “so you aren’t mad?” You were almost thinking that your brother would explode when you all least expected it “I am just glad that you don’t have to hide it anymore.” It was clear he was being honest.
There was this inviting sense about his voice so you took it and made your way around the kitchen island “you really mean that?”it made your heart soar “I do.” Nick nodded, shooting you his signature smile.
It was like you both felt totally in the clear as you hugged Nick “because now I can say this.” He wrapped his arms around you, letting his eyes stare into his teammates “you hurt her and I will break you.” And there were the threats that you had expected.
summary: a headcannon of what a dark Matt is like as a boyfriend
request: “can you write a super dark matt thing please? like he gives me rafe cameron vibes.” - anon
warnings: sexual themes, dark content with some manipulation, obsession and tampering with birth control.
authors note: this is my first time writing anything that toyed into the dark side of writing so I do hope that you guys like it. I am not even sure if I did it right though so...
ꕥ dark!matt won’t admit just how much he watches you. he knew about your every move and even how you took your coffee before he said one word to you.
ꕥ dark!matt love bombed you, knowing exactly what you needed to hear from him in order to fall in love and it worked.
ꕥ dark!matt reminds you how your friends don’t know the two of you like he does, as they warn you about how fast your relationship moved.
ꕥ dark!matt rewarded you with a proper fuck after that. watching you tell your friends that they were wrong and that he loved you was just what he wanted to hear you say. so that night he made sure that you knew you were his good little girl.
ꕥ dark!matt knows how to manipulate you into doing what he wants. because he is so quick to ignore you when you stepped out of line. the silent treatment from him is your worst.
ꕥ dark!matt has a possessive side, watching you sit there in his jersey with this grin on your face as you watch him play makes his cock grow hard. you’re too naive to know it when another guy hits on you and only have eyes for him.
ꕥ dark!matt is so protective over you, like one time your car wouldn’t start and he had training so you took a cab and when he found out he was so angry about it. of course you chalked it down to him being caring about you. but actually it was more so that he just didn’t want to risk someone else seeing and wanting you.
ꕥ dark!matt took the longest time to tell you that he was a hockey player, he crafted it perfectly to use that card when you were having doubts about him being honest early on. after that you felt so guilty that you were constantly apologising for it. oh if only you knew that there was your out and that you should have taken it.
ꕥ dark!matt loves taking you from the front. like he has to see your pretty face when you cum and he loves watching your lips whimper and beg as he towers over you.
ꕥ dark!matt has sex tapes for the two of you! it is primarily to watch when you aren’t around but you have never realised how he sets up the camera before you end up in the room.
ꕥ dark!matt has set up a nanny cam around the apartment so that he can watch you when he is gone. you’ve never picked up on it and can’t understand how he knows when you’ve tried to masturbate without him there.
ꕥ dark!matt loves the fact that you can’t cum without him. whether it be his fingers, mouth or cock, you need him in order to finish and the boy capitalises on that. but he does appreciate your effort in trying to finish alone, even if he’d never say that.
ꕥ dark!matt loves nothing more than shooting his load into your cunt and after he tampers with your birth control. he can’t wait to see you full with his baby in your belly.
ꕥ dark!matt would never let you leave, not that you would want to though being far too obsessed with his attention and constant desire to have his approval.
ꕥ dark!matt doesn’t know that you have a few secrets of your own too and you aren’t as sweet and innocent as he once believed.
