Hi there! Thank you so much for the kind words. This was my first time writing for a plus-size reader, apologies if I didnât do well. I did my best through research and reading, but Iâm always open to learning and improving. I hope you enjoy reading this though (ÂŽâœïœ)
Farmer MacTavishâs Prized fruits
Johnny soap mactavish x fem! Plus sized reader, pure fluff.
Somewhere between cleaning his rifle and daydreaming about runaway goats, Johnny MacTavish got that look in his eye againâthat dumb, dreamy one that made Ghost sigh and walk away without a word.
It was the same face every time: crooked grin, eyes twinkling like a cartoon star, like someone had just whispered âfree whiskeyâ into the wind. And you knew. The second you rounded the corner, he was already on his feet, arms flung open like heâd just spotted his prized fluffy sheep after a week lost in the glen.
He had two handsâand he wasnât wastinâ either of them.
Not when your cheeksâround, plush, and tragically squishable like freshly risen breadâwere within reach. Warm like morning rolls left on a windowsill. And, unfortunately for your dignity, irresistibly soft.
The rest of you matched. Soft in all the right places, with curves so generous he swore you were sculpted by a god who just really loved holding things.
He could be mid-briefing, half-dressed, scratching his butt, chewing a protein bar, or deep into reassembling a rifle and he'd still reach over and gently pinch, prod, or smoosh your cheeks together like he was at a Saturday market inspecting peaches for ripeness.
âAye, there ye are, ma lass!â he beamed, practically bouncing toward you like a golden retriever in combat boots.
âHold still, love. Need tae check firmness. See if yer fresh.â
You didnât even get a proper âhelloâ out beforeâschwumpâboth his hands were on your cheeks. Warm, calloused palms, rough from gun oil and poor life choices, cradled your face like it was divine fruit. He gave a testing squish.
âHmmm,â he hummed, rocking your head side to side thoughtfully. âLook at this one. Plump. Juicy. Full of secrets. perfectly ripe, just like I like âem. Soft but springy. Ya been watered properly, hen?â
âEvery morninâ,â you deadpanned, lips smushed together like a sad fish. âFiltered. Organic. Grew myself in a clay pot. Buy one, get one forehead slap.â
He grinned, delighted. âHa! Knew it. These cheeks are blue ribbon quality. Iâm tellinâ ye, Iâd win medals at the Highland Games for cheeks like these. Best in show. Cheek du jour.â
You squinted at him. âWhy are you talking to my face again?â
He blinked, like the answer was obvious. âQuality control. Yer a melon. Iâm a humble Scottish farmer, searchinâ the land for only the finest fruit. Canât sell subpar produce at market, now can I?â he said seriously-too seriously. Like he was giving a TED Talk on facial fruit.
You arched a brow. "How much am I going for, then?"
He stroked his chin dramatically, still squishing your cheeks into shapes no human expression should ever achieve.
Then tugged your cheeks gently left, right, gave them a bounce like he was testing gravity. He huffed through his nose.
âFor these wee beauties?â he muttered, leaning in close like a bartering merchant. âTwo sheep, a jug oâ cider, and me best goat. The one that screams at Gary every Sunday.â
You sighed, long-suffering but amused. âThatâs extortionate. Sounds like Iâm the one robbing you.â
He grinned wider. âAnd Iâd hand it all over gladly.â
âThatâs stupid. Youâll bankrupt yourself dry.â
ââŠAnd your goat has IBS.â
âOi! Donât talk about Margaret like that! Sheâs sensitive!â
Then, of course, he broke into what he thought was your voiceâoffensive, ridiculous, and weirdly high-pitched.
ââOoo, Mister sexy Johnny, Iâm just a wee humble melon! Donât sell me off, Iâm full oâ hopes and dreamsâââ
âI do not sound like that.â
âYou do when yer cheeksâre like this.â
He shook your face lightly in his hands like a bowl of jelly for emphasis. You made a muffled âmmpf,â like a sentient stress ball. He leaned in and kissed your templeâwarm and scratchy from stubble, like a cat tongue with better aim.
And God help you, sometimes⊠you joined in.
ââScuse me, missy,â heâd start again, full dramatic flair.In the thickest farmer accent youâd ever heard (which wasnât saying much, since he already sounded like a Glaswegian goat herder). âHow much for these cheek-fruits?â
You barely blinked. âTwelve-fifty per squeeze and the rest of your dignity. No refunds. Market closes in five.â
âTwelve-fifty?!â he gasped. âWhat do I get for two euros thenâjust a sniff? A sample?â
âNone. Inflation,â you mumbled through the squish.
ââŠMaybe a pity pat on the head. And a slap if you squeeze any harder.â
He kissed the top of your head like you were his prize pumpkin, he raised from childhood, âWorth every penny, ye are.â
And the thing wasâhe meant it.
His thumbs pressed gently into the softness of your cheeksâflesh like sweet dough, sun-warmed and kissed by the world. There was something in the way he held you: a reverence laced with playful awe, like you were some divine peach from an orchard tended by gods, plucked at the perfect hour of morning light. The fullness of your face, the gentle curve of your jaw, the cushion that came naturally with your frameâhe loved it.
It wasnât just your face, of course.
He loved all of youâevery curve, every unapologetic inch. The strength in your arms, soft but powerful, like velvet wrapped around steel. Your waist, generous and steadyâa soft curve made for holding, made for settling into. The kind of softness he could bury into when the world got too loud. And your hipsâGod, your thighsâthe way they moved with that quiet confidence, swaying with a rhythm no one taught you. Like you moved to music only you could hear. Unapologetic. Proud.
And Johnny? He adored you like a starving man shown mercy.
âIâve decided,â he declared, slipping into that farmer drawl, âyeâre the finest crop this side oâ the River Clyde. If I were a melon farmerââ
âYouâd be bankrupt. You havenât watered a plant in three weeks.â
âOi! Iâd water ye wiâ compliments daily, woman. Donât test me.â
âThis is my life now?â
âAye,â he said solemnly. Hands still planted on your cheeks. âYer my prize melon. The last one in the patch. Locals travel from miles away to lay eyes on ye.â
âSomeday,â he muttered, cheek still in hand, âweâre buyinâ a wee farm. Just you, me, and a hundred different kinds oâ jam. Iâll wake up, squeeze yer cheeks every morninâ, check the forecast.â
âWhat do they say today?â
He leaned in, nose brushing yours.
ââŠStormâs cominâ. Cheeksâre warm.â
His hand slid to your hip, burying his face in the crook of your neck like you were made of sunshine and honeysuckle.
Then, in a softer voice, âYou ever think about quittinâ wiâ me, Bonnie?â
You tilted your head just enoughâhis cue to go on.
âMaybe, In another life⊠weâd be farmers. Iâd grow tatties. Youâd grow peaches. Iâd come tae yer stall each morninâ, flirt shamelessly while buyinâ me dinner back. Youâd act like ye donât know me. Tell me Iâve sauce on me chin. Send me packinâ wiâ a basket and a blush.â
âIâd give you the bruised ones,â you muttered. âBecause youâre annoying.â
Heâd pretend to clutch his pearls. âBruised?! Me heart, womanâshattered like a dropped watermelon.â
But then he returned against your soft skin. âCan see it now. Big bonnet. Sunflowers in your apron. Arms strong from milkinâ cows. That peachy wee arse jigglinâ in the garden rowsââ
âYou were doing so well until the end.â
âIâm a man of vision,â he whispered, smug.
You rolled your eyes, laughing despite yourself, and reached to twist his ear. He yelped. Deserved.
He does this often â builds entire daydreams around you. Heâs off in some ridiculous fantasy world now In this one, youâre wearing overalls (he insists yours would be covered in flour), and heâs got straw in his hair, slapping bread dough around and calling it âtillage.â
You snorted, letting him continue his dumb little fantasy.
And in another world, your left cheek is named âHoneybunâ and the right âLassie,â and he gave them dramatic story arcs.
âTheyâve been through a drought, yâknow,â he whispered against your ear one afternoon while youâre making him coffee. âBut I watered âem with love and protein shakes. Look at âem now. Plump ânâ happy.â
You played along, always. Patient, sarcastic, gently amused in that soft, indulgent way that only makes him fall harder. Youâd cheekily said things like âThey donât like to be touched without an appointment,â or âIâm sorry sir, Honeybun gone bad. Got bruised by some idiot in tactical gear.â
And He gasped in horror like itâs a real tragedy. âHONEYBUN, NOâ WHO-WHO DARED?! Iâll heat the market regulation outta him!â
âGood luck,â you muttered. âHe talks too much and smells like gunpowder and Lynx Africa.â
âSounds ah sexy lad!â He whistled, cradling your face with the kind of reckless affection that made your heart warm despite your best attempts at sarcasm.
And once, after a shower, you walked out in a towel, snugged against your soft stomach and caught him on the couch, holding a peach.
âYouâre the reason humanity doesnât have flying cars.â
âIâll take that as a yes.â
And sure enough, he walked over, squeezed the peach. Then your cheek. Then the peach again. Then your cheek.
Eventually he kissed your face with a wet MWAA and declared you the winner.
âSofter. Sweeter. No pit.â
âHigh praise,â you said dryly. âYou should put that on my tombstone.â
He grinned and laid his head on your shoulder, big warm arm curling around your middle.
âOnly if I get to be buried next to Honeybun.â
Once, Ghost caught him mid-squeeze and muttered, âThe hell are you doinâ?â
Johnny didnât miss a beat. âProduct quality control, sir.â
Now when Ghost passes by and sees him face-deep in your cheek, he just mutters, âFruit thing again?â
âThird time this week.â
âFourth, if ye count the bread loaf metaphor!â Johnny called proudly. Chest puffed.
And Johnny? Still daydreaming about the farm. The goat named Margaret. And the legend of the finest cheeks this side of the River Clyde.
