Happy Pride! 🌈

@rainbowrowell

I've always wanted to make one of those over the top lambeth cakes and I love the idea of Simon picking up baking!

[justkitkatthings]

Baker!Simon, who retired from the task force after Johnny died because life's too short to not do what we love and our favorite masked man has a secret passion for baking. And you, with your important CEO job or whatever and unhealthy addiction to caffeine and baked goods. It was love at first bite.

Simon's bakery became your frequent on the way to work (and sometimes even on the way home because you deserve a sweet treat). Soon enough, he knew your 'usual' and had it ready before you even came in. The day you try to switch it up, he genuinely thinks something is wrong with you or you've been replaced by an imposter because his sweet'art would never. And when you try to argue with him he just slides your order even closer to you on the counter, not even making you pay for it this time.

Which only sparks him giving you free goodies even more. He just needed someone to taste test his seasonal pastry, luvie, stop being weird about it and someone ordered wrong, pretty, just take the damn coffee.

And you’re absolutely not complaining. How could you when this ruggedly handsome man who owns your favorite coffee shop gives you free stuff? But, with your job in the business world, you've learned that nothing is ever free, so you give him something to eat in return ;)

simon ghost riley x fem reader - in multiple aus ^v^

biker!simon who gifts you your own bike and takes you around the bloc to ride it. it doesn’t go well at first – you keep stumbling and the sputtering engine of your own bike scares you, but simon’s there, ready to catch you and to switch off the ignition before you can topple.

you two spend hours just familiarizing yourself with the bike before you finally manage a one-minute run without tipping over, simon shadowing you from the back with his own. laughter spills from your lips and simon grins, feeding off of your giddiness.

(you don’t know it but simon’s been filming your progress, sending updates to the group chat when he can.

ghost: peanut’s learning

soap: today of all days? ok weirdo. anyways, what time are you both gonna be here for the party then????

gaz: LMAO JOHNNY)

the sky’s stretching into darkness (it’s just four in the afternoon) when you wheel your bike back to his garage.

“y’had fun?” simon asks, tapping your visor lightly with his gloved hand, his eyes crinkled in happiness.

you nod, placing your palms on either side of your helmet to tether it from all of simon’s jostling.

“i did!” you cheer, beaming up at him. “thank you so much, baby.”

simon smiles before he bumps his helmet on yours, his palm closing around your wrist where his thumb begins to rub soothing nothings.

“‘s good to hear,” he says, his voice a touch quiet. “i’m so proud of you, lovie.”

you are still shy, avoiding his eyes as your cheeks continue to thrum with heat at simon’s reverence, when you and simon rev away towards johnny’s place.

-

baker!simon who is knocking on your apartment door at 3 am and, when that fails, is calling you consecutively until you answer.

“fuckin’ what?”

you’re groggy from sleep, voice still scratchy from having just been woken up. simon can practically see your eye bags from the other line but he doesn’t have it in him to be sorry. you did ask to be picked up for the day’s long haul.

“wakey wakey,” simon greets with a straight face. “time for cake…y.”

there’s silence from your end, stretching into uncomfortable minutes, before the door is ripped open and there came you, squinting up at him.

“what?” you ask again, this time less angry. simon realizes the call’s been dropped so he pockets his phone back.

“good mornin’ love,” is what he says instead because it is. because every morning with you is good. “y’still wanna help out with the shop today?”

you blink your squinted eyes for a while, processing, then, “ah! oh-em-jee, yeah, of course.”

it’s kind of comical how your face eases up with the dawning realization before you scramble back inside to your place. there’s a pause, shuffling of feet, and the door swinging open again. you shoot him a sheepish smile. “come in?”

he chuckles and steps forward to finally crowd you, his lips cool as they brush against your warm cheek. you burrow in his warmth and you two breathe each other in before you amble back to prepare for the day.

(simon stares at the bloody ceiling.

“mactavish,” he barks out. “how did you fuckin’ launch the batter up there?”

it’s only your loud laughter that saves johnny from being fired – “you can’t fire a friend! bro-code!” – and simon stops glaring at him to turn and watch as you try to stop the giggles.

there’s a stray peppering of flour on your face and on your hair, your apron a whole wet mess of egg and batter, and your hands sticky with cookie dough. but even then, you still look so beautiful, so perfect, as you stand there amidst the mess.

“keep starin’ and lassie’ll melt.”

simon elbows johnny in the stomach hard.)

-

bimbo!reader who worryingly calls simon because something is wrong with the mashed potatoes you’re preparing. simon answers the call within the first ring, leaving the towel that he’s been using to dry his hair to fall limply on the floor.

“hey, sweets,” he says. “how-”

“simmy!” you cry out, cutting him off. “they’re ugly!”

“oh? what is, sweet pea?” simon asks, not even batting an eye.

he gets a facetime call and eagerly answers it. simon almost lets out a croon at how gorgeous you are, all dolled up for the night out with your friends – and even when you aren’t dolled up, even when you’re only in his ratty old shirts, you are still so beautiful – and wishes he can see you in person already.

simon’s not really a patient man when it comes to being away from you.

“hi, my sweet girl,” he says, his eyes crinkling as he smiles.

the worry in your face melts just a bit, your eyes flicking down shyly.

see? his sweet girl, indeed.

“uhm, i,” you begin, clearing your throat when it cracks. “they’re ugly.”

“who is?”

simon doesn’t expect you to flip the camera to show him a pot of… chowder?

“i fucked up my mashed potatoes!”

a heartbeat passes before simon’s peeling laughter comes through. he disguises it as a cough, thumping his chest when the chuckles refuse to be smothered.

it’s just- he can’t look away from the fucked up potatoes, not even knowing where to begin to tell you how you screwed them up. did you add more milk than needed? why’s it so wet? did you add water to it too?

what-

simon’s thoughts stutter to a halt, his giddy laughter petering into quiet puffs.

“sweetheart?” he asks and simon’s blessed with the sight of your beautiful face again. “aren’t you supposed to be out with your friends tonight? why’re you making food?”

your lips jut out in a pout, your nose scrunching as you look away. it takes a heartbeat before you reply, your words chewed on as though you don’t want him to hear.

but simon did. and his heart is left to melt in the weight of his love for you.

“i asked if we could reschedule because you just came back and i wanted to, you know, have dinner with you.”

“oh,” simon whispers.

you sniff.

simon doesn’t hide his smile. “i’ll be there in ten, yeah?”

he catches you nod before simon’s off, running to his room to dress up, before snagging his car keys and the wrapped gift he prepared for you.

he swears that he carefully managed to go past the speed limit as he drives to your place. very carefully.

(extra)

dbf!simon who watches as the minutes go by as his message remains unanswered.

> you free?

he sees the notification that it’s been read. he waits to see if you will type up anything but the chat box remains an empty slate and the seconds of waiting turn to minutes.

to hours.

simon’s fist tightens around the box in his hand.

(johnny sees the diamonds and snorts. “tryna win her back with a rock, really?”

simon glares at him and johnny raises his hands in mock surrender.

he sighs and pushes the gift to johnny. “just take it. i’ve got no use for it.”

“anymore, you mean,” johnny adds, snickering even when he pockets the ring.

simon grunts and turns away, ignoring johnny as he tries to drown out the yawning in his heart.)

https://youtube.com/shorts/ayobRLPBUzg?si=qD4OEg9PtngpnN5L

literally the first thing i thought of i NEEDED to show you 🫡

bro i almost blocked u for this ☹️

u have to repent. literally get down on ur knees and beg for forgiveness bc wtf did u make me watch 😭

this is u when i catch ur ass fr:

i was so excited getting my first baker!simon ask n then u pulled a silly n traumatized me. im cleansing my youtube shorts as we speak!!

-

…ok so u didnt hear this from me but that video is actually so johnny-coded im crying

he sent it to group chat and he got his ass blocked!! as he should!!

im in stitches imagining tf141 + reader getting this video at 3 am or smthn and johnnys description was only “bakih!” (wrong spelling and all because hes soo hammered) and you’re staring at the video wide-eyed and confused, still too sleep-delirious to actually understand that johnny’s filmed a thirst trap of him baking and sent it to the group chat. the next thing you know, simon’s bolting outta the bed, kissing your forehead, before running out the apartment because, “how the fuck did mactavish get inside the bakery?!”

(it’s simon’s bakery and johnny shouldn’t have a key)

-

in srs, this is so funny but not in a genuine haha way but in a concerned haha..hahaha..? way 😭

thank u for thinking of me but im actually screaming <333 mwah!

[tojisun]

i didn’t mean to traumatize you i’m so sorry 😭 it was literally hilariously dehumanizing to watch that but i do see johnny being drunk as shit and makin some thirst trap in Simon’s bakery

i do hope your youtube shorts and you both cleanse and heal from this event 😌

love you from the bottom of my heart 💕

“hilariously dehumanizing” im actually in tears rn 😭 but no bc u are right like wtf is that?? i barely had time to exhale when i saw mf strip off his shirt n then finger the goddamn fruit??

n yea!! johnny broke into simons bakery and did that shit. i bet u its the last thing he watched while sober so his drunk ass was kinda riding off of that memory and recreated it HQJJDJE

johnny was tryna make a cranachan and everyone watches as he smirks at the camera, all seductive, while whipping the cream. (he fumbles with the whisk multiple times before he can successfully plop it on the bowl instead of missing it and stabbing the counter).

no one but price was actually able to stomach johnny’s video so price is the only one who knows that johnny tried to, uh, finger the raspberries only to end up smooshing the poor fruits (yes, johnny tried it multiple times LMFAO) because he wasnt being gentle. price doesnt know if he should laugh or be grossed out.

(he goes with both.)

(every time johnny brings home a date, price bids him a goodnight and jovially adds, “maybe try wikihow for instructions when you do the, y’know.”)

btw, thank you sm for your apology <33 kisses u on the forehead bc ur silly youtube shorts murked ur ass too 😔🫶🏼

and yes! my youtube shorts are cleansed now too <333 theyre back to recommending me ghost (band) videos or slime asmr

love you too sweetheart teehee ^3^
