a/n: This is my first ever fanfic so bear with me. There is no content of this man so I wrote something because ahhhh
warning: this is not proof read (I’m dyslexic) and is probs terrible
summary: Readers saves Jim yay
It had already happened. It was too late to save Jim. He was the victor and he was about to claim his price. A part of him knew something was wrong, he could tell by the eagerness of officer rick, hand resting on his gun.
He looked down through the crowd of people dancing, all the happiness and love shared by the people that made the room warm and humid. Then he saw her, the girl who came to stop this stupid tradition. But the animalistic nature of teenage boys was too much for one girl to stop.
She had a-lot of rumors around. People said she went off the deep end after her only friend, the winner of last year’s run left town. Jim always admired her from a far, the beauty of the girl was something he had never witnessed before. It was like the universe had made him just for her. He never looked in her eyes until after he killed sawtooth jack, when he did, he saw someone who looked as though someone had just savagely murdered their best friend. And in a way he did.
After the crowd lifted him the air and the wave of adrenaline came down, he went to her as she wept over sawtooths body.
She explained everything.
He was going to die.
Jim walked through the crowd to the girl. Letting her magnetism pull him in. She walked to him, because in this universe she felt the same. Meeting in the middle of the dance floor they made a plan. To leave this stupid town.
He knew what needed to be done, but she was the one who had the heart to do it. They met at the crossing, a shotgun and pistol were loaded into the car and they simply drove away.
The sheriff wasn’t far behind, but they knew what they had to do to stop him. The car reached a screeching halt, one look was shared between the two. After Jim left the car and followed the sheriff to grave that had been dug dozens of times. She followed. And so did death.
One shot for the sheriff, and one for the farmer.
Once back on the road it was clear, even though they had stopped the cycle, all they had become was monsters themselves.
As they drove to freedom through the night there were no words shared just grief for the people they left behind, the people who didn’t get the treatment of a victor.
It was vowed that next year they would save Richie, to give him the same freedom they were yet to share.
I have seen a huge fucking lack in Jim fics, and I'm here to change that. (Please keep in mind I'm not the best writer)
Summary: Not much just you trying to convince Jim to not do the hunt because you're scared.. (He still goes but makes you feel better)
Warnings? Nah not much just a lil spicy and some cursing
When Jim told you about the gruesome 3-day treatment they need to go through in order to hunt down Sawtooth, You weren't pleased at all, not being able to see Jim for 3 whole days AND he doesn't get to eat just hurt you. After the 3 days, you ran to Jim's house impatiently waiting to see him, once you got to his front door you knocked rapidly eager to see your love.
Once Mrs. Shepard opened the door she was surprised to see you and not Annie.. "Oh! Hello dear.. what are you doing here?" You looked around her to see if you could spot Jim, "Sorry Mrs. Shepard, I was looking for Jim, is he here?" Mrs. Shepard only smiled and nodded her head. She invited you inside and called out for Jim, after a few minutes you heard a door open and close and shuffling footsteps, you smiled wide as you saw your handsome blonde boy.
Once he saw you he ran to hug you and to feel you and see you for the first time in a long 3 days, he picked you up in a hug and spun you around, you giggled and wrapped your arms around his neck. "I missed you handsome" "I missed you more baby" Ohhhh that deep voice and that accent just make you melt, you smile and kiss him passionately he reciprocates and puts his hands on your hips resting them there.
You break the kiss since you're openly kissing in his living room, he grabs your hand and takes you to his room "You have no idea how much I missed you baby" he says as he puts his hand on your face and kisses you deeply. You giggle and grip his jacket pulling him toward you, before anything can escalate further you stop him saying you guys need to talk. You sit him on his bed and you sit next to him "Jim.. I would like to talk about the run or hunt, to some people.." Jim looks at you with worry "You ok baby?" he says.
You shake your head 'no' and hold his hand "Do you really have to do the run..? I mean it's dangerous and there's a 50/50 chance you can win or lose.. maybe die." You take a deep breath and look him in the eyes and he's listening and letting you speak, (what a gentleman) "I just don't think it's worth it.. and I-" Your voice breaks up as you try not to cry. "C'mere baby" He says as he pulls you into his lap, "I hear you, and I understand where you're coming from.." He stops for a second and thinks about his next words "But baby you know I've been working for this.. and I feel like it's a chance to prove myself, not only to you but my parents.. and the town."
You roll your eyes at his last statement and sighed before raising your voice a little "You don't have to prove shit! You want people to think of you as a hero. And that's ok.. but at least try and "prove" yourself with a less dangerous thing!" You start to cry. Jim just sits there and lets you rant, he understands you're upset but he also wants to make his family proud. "Baby" he quietly spoke as he took your hands in his, he adjusted you to where your chest was to his and he just let you cry.
"I love you," He says as he kisses your head, "and I always will, but I need to do this.." He said the last part quietly. You look up at him with teary eyes.. the site just breaks him and he kisses you passionately like he'll never kiss you again, you just melt into him and enjoy his touch. He begins to deepen the kiss and puts his tongue at the entrance of your teeth and you allow. He's touching every corner of your mouth making sure he gets it all covered, you whine a little bit at the feeling and that fuels him more. He flips you to where he's on top of you and now his hands are creeping around your body touching everything, you move into his touch more and attempt to take his shirt off but there's a soft and fast knock on his door.
"Jimmy? Dinner's ready!" Mrs. Shepard says and walks off. Jim gets up and fixes himself up for dinner and glances at you, you're breathing heavily and your face is flushed, Jim leans over and kisses you again. "Get ready for dinner baby, we'll finish this later." He says the last part as he walks out of the room and closes the door behind him, you get up and fix your dress, re-touch your make-up, and re-do your ponytail before heading down to the Shepard's dinner table. As you were walking Richie kept laughing and looking at Jim, Jim just smiled and waved you over, once you sat down and said Grace Jim whispered teasingly in your ear "Just remember we aren't finished" and he moved back into his seat.
LMAOOOO I kept giggling while making this, but I hope you guys enjoyed this crap, trust me I'm working on it.. Please leave tips and more ideas if you want
