- “y/n where are we going, i don’t want to go anywhere or do anything. i just want to lay in bed with you”
- “yes, i know, but the doctor said you need to walk around and not just be a bed bug, so i’m taking you somewhere where you wouldn’t expect me to”
- your hand grabbed fangs’s and kissed his rings, laying his hand on your thigh
- you sang along to the songs on the radio as you drove to the mall
- “why are we going to the mall? i don’t want to! are we getting new clothes? did pea put you up to this?”
- “no, you loser, we’re not going shopping. we’re doing something that’s in the mall”
- “the food court?”
- “stop talking!”
- fangs sighed and looked out the window
- “how are you feeling?”
- “i’m angry at you”
- you parked the car and unbuckled your seatbelt, turning to fangs
- “why are you mad at me?”
- he turned away from you, making you smile
- you climb over and kiss his neck softly
- his body relaxing
- “why are you mad at me?”
- “i’m not anymore, jesus, your touch or kiss me and i’m under your spell”
- you smile and kiss him quickly, hopping out of the car
- you hold his hand and walk into the mall with the biggest smile on your face
- “we aren’t even in riverdale anymore, where the hell are we?”
- “in a couple towns over. this mall has what i wanted to go to”
- fangs was moving at a slow pace, his stomach still hurting, but he was moving much better than before
- “okay, i can tell you where we’re going now because we can see it from here”
- he looked around
- “uhm.. the harley store?”
- “no..”
- “victoria’s secret? that’ll make me feel better”
- he winked and you glared, scoffing
- “no, that’s at home”
- his face dropped and you laughed
- “since you can’t guess, we’ll just walk in”
- you walk into the build-a-bear workshop store and he looked at you and smiled
- “what are we doing?”
- “we’re raising a bear together! but you’re going to keep him, he’s going to be dressed just like you”
- “you know you’re the cutest person i have ever met?”
- “yeah, i know”
- fangs smiled and kissed you, you two heading over to the bins with the bears in it
- they had marvel, trolls, but he stuck with the brown bear
- he stepped over to the stuffing place and a worker helped him, and you laughed the whole time
- the worker asked for him to kiss the heart and you both did
- she asked if you wanted to put a voice memo in it and you told fangs to go pick out the outfit as you put the voice button in the bear’s hand
- fangs came over and dressed the bear in the outfit which was a black shirt, red and black flannel, black jeans, some shoes that looked like converse, and a dog tag necklace
- “it looks just like you, fangs, he’s so cute”
- you went over to the computer and fangs sat down, you over his shoulder
- “so what is his name going to be?”
- “hmm..”
- fangs look at the bear and studied him
- “alex?”
- “i like alex. alex fogarty”
- you printed his birth certificate and paid for the bear, fangs so excited about his bear
- you two get in the car and you look at fangs
- “i put a voice memo in his hand, squeeze his left hand”
- fangs chuckled and he did, listening closely
- “hi fangs, i just wanted to let you know that i love you so much and i am so proud of you and how strong you are, and i will be by your side forever, you’re my world and i love you more than you know”
- fangs set the bear down and wiped his eyes
- “aw baby!”
- you reach over and hug fangs, sitting on his lap and holding his head to your chest
- your hand petting his hair and tears ran down your face as well
- “why are you crying, baby boy?”
- he looked at you and whimpered and you held his face
- “i just.. never expected to find someone who would love me just as much as you do. who would stand by my side through all the shit that was happening. i wasn’t screwing midge, i was asking her what i should do for our anniversary. no one believed me and believed i was the one who murdered her. but you and the other serpents knew the truth, but when i was released and i was shot, you didn’t leave my side. i am so, so thankful that you stuck by me, and that you still love me just the same”
- “maybe a little more”
- fangs would not let go of the bear. he’d fall asleep on the couch or in bed with the bear close to his chest
- the only reason why he always hugged it was because he took some of your perfume and sprayed it on the bear so he always had you wherever he went
- and whenever he was having a panic attack or a nightmare, he would press the button and listen to the voice memo, and it calmed him down instantly
- and soon, his bear collection grew, making sure there was a voice memo in each of them from you
- sometimes from him
- but mostly from you
- you didn’t mind, it helped him sleep when you weren’t around
- but you soon moved in with him, and his bears were soon replaced with you
- even though those bears would always have a special place in his heart
