Pairing: Xavier Legette x Zoie (Black Female OC) | Established Relationship
Summary: After weeks on the road, Xavier makes it home early. Zoie’s already in his bed, half-asleep and wrapped in his shirt. He slides in behind her, and the reunion is slow, sweat-soaked, and full of all the things they’ve missed. Cockwarming turns into deep, messy strokes. What starts as sleepy turns into a soul-snatching reminder that this love—and this pussy—ain’t something he’s ever letting go of.
Warnings: 18+ only. Established relationship. Sleepy sex. Cockwarming. Deep grinding. Emotional climax. Dirty talk. Sweat. Possessive energy. Soft dominance. Messy creampies. Deep eye contact.
In the Quiet | Take It With You
The plane descended onto the Charlotte tarmac with a quiet roar, the wheels kissing the ground beneath the dim glow of 3 a.m. runway lights. Outside the windows, the city lay still and dark, punctuated only by scattered orange halos from distant streetlamps. The Carolina Panthers had just wrapped up a grueling series of road games, and fatigue hung in the cabin like humidity.
But Xavier wasn’t exhausted. Not in the way the rest of the team was.
He leaned back in his seat, his hood drawn low over his head, gold chain tucked neatly beneath the collar of his sweatshirt. One AirPod dangled from his neck, forgotten, the music nothing more than a filler for the silence. His attention was fixed on his phone, thumb scrolling slowly through a string of messages from Zoie. He reread the most recent one, a photo of her curled up in his hoodie, biting her bottom lip with the caption: "Your side of the bed lonely af."
His thumb hovered over the keyboard, as if he might respond. But he didn’t. He locked the screen and turned to the window, face unreadable.
Three weeks. That’s how long it had been since he touched her. Since they sat on the same couch, breathed the same air, shared the same bed. FaceTime wasn’t enough. Not even close. Not when he could still remember the scent of her skin, the sound of her sleepy laugh echoing through his house, the way she moved through his space as if it belonged to her.
He craved that kind of closeness again.
The bus ride from the airport to the stadium dragged on, despite being relatively short. He sat in the back, cap pulled low, hoodie zipped high. With every mile that passed, the anticipation tightened in his chest. By the time they reached the facility, he was already sending a message to staff: "I’m good. Just heading home tonight."
No locker room wind-down. No small talk.
He was already gone.
The drive home was a blur of headlights and empty streets, his truck carving through the quiet like a blade. The highway melted into suburbs, which faded into the familiar turns of his neighborhood. By the time he turned into his driveway, his fingers were drumming against the steering wheel, heart thudding hard in his chest.
She was inside.
He didn’t text.
Didn’t call.
Didn’t even grab his overnight bag.
He stepped out quietly, the door closing behind him with a soft click. His walk was steady, unhurried, the kind of grounded stride he only used when he had a purpose. The key slid into the lock without a sound. The door creaked open, as if the house itself sighed in relief at his return.
Darkness. Stillness.
No TV, no playlist humming from the kitchen speaker. Just the familiar scent of candle wax, faint takeout, and Zoie’s hair products lingering in the air. A small smile curled at the corner of his lips.
He slipped out of his sneakers by the front door, pulling his hoodie off as he moved deeper inside. Everything about the space made him slow down. The quiet wrapped around him like a blanket, and the ache of missing her surged all at once.
Then he saw her.
She was fast asleep, sprawled across his side of the bed. One of his old long-sleeve shirts clung to her figure, bunched high on her thighs. Her body curled into the pillow, her lips parted in sleep. One leg peeked out from under the blanket, as if searching for a body that wasn’t there.
He exhaled, long and quiet.
He was home.
Finally.
Xavier moved like he didn’t want to wake her.
But the moment he stepped inside the bedroom, his whole body shifted, shoulders loosening, breath steadying, like something in him finally clicked back into place. The door closed with a whisper behind him, and he stood there for a second, just watching Zoie sleep.
She hadn’t moved. Still curled up on his side of the bed, the thin fabric of his shirt barely clinging to one shoulder. Her hair spilled across the pillow like a halo. She looked untouched, peaceful, already holding space for him.
He undressed without turning on the lights. Shirt over his head. Chain set gently on the dresser. Belt undone, jeans sliding down slowly. Every movement quiet and deliberate. Like he was unwrapping something sacred.
When he finally slipped under the covers, the heat of her body pulled him in like gravity. His chest met her back, skin to skin, and he released a low breath against her shoulder. She stirred but didn’t wake, just shifted enough to make room, like her body knew him in sleep.
His arm slid around her waist, palm spreading wide across her stomach. He buried his nose in the crook of her neck, inhaling deeply. The scent of her lotion, her hair, her skin, all of it hit him at once. Familiar. Soft. Home.
His hand moved slowly. Over her belly, up under the hem of the shirt. Fingers grazing her thighs. The skin was warm, bare. No panties.
His breath caught.
He kissed her neck. Not rushed. Not hungry. Just there. Present. Lips brushing along her skin like a promise.
Then his hips rocked forward just a little.
Hard against her. Thick and pulsing. Letting her feel exactly what she’d been missing. What he’d been saving.
Another kiss to the base of her neck.
Then a whisper, low and rough in her ear:
“Lemme in, mama.”
He stayed still.
Not out of hesitation, but reverence. His body pressed against hers from behind, chest a steady rise and fall against her back, breath warm at the nape of her neck. One arm wrapped around her waist, the other cradling her head against the pillow, thumb stroking slowly across her temple, grounding her in sleep.
He'd found her soft, wet, and already open for him like her body had been waiting on him in sleep, like even in dreams it remembered what it meant to have him buried deep. With a slow roll of his hips, he pressed forward, inch by inch, savoring every stretch, every clench. Careful not to wake her too fast. Her body received him in silence, a slow, tight pull like velvet heat, welcoming and familiar. A quiet gasp slipped from her lips the moment he bottomed out, breath catching as her fingers twitched against the sheet.
Deep. Thick. Home.
And still he didn’t move.
Zoie breathed like she was still in a dream. Her inhales came deep and drawn-out, lashes fluttering but staying low. Her skin was flushed with sleep, and her body responded before her mind did. A lazy roll of her hips back into his. A tightening around him. A sigh that spilled into the quiet room, soft and sweet.
Xavier shut his eyes, forehead lowering to the back of her neck.
The weight of her around him had his jaw clenched. She was too good. Too warm. Too wet. The way she hugged him, clenched him, gripped him like she never wanted him to leave again, it pulled every muscle in his body tight. He didn’t dare move, didn’t dare speak too loud. He just let the feeling settle deep into his spine.
His nose brushed along the shell of her ear. He kissed her there, then lower, mouth open and reverent as he moved down her neck. His hips flexed forward, slow and subtle, just enough to push deeper. Like he needed her to know he was really there. Like he wanted to remind her where he belonged.
She shifted, finally. Not fully awake, but close. Her hips pressed back into him, a sleepy offering, and it was all the permission he needed.
He pulled her close again, his arm tightening around her stomach, his hand splaying over her ribs, his thumb stroking beneath the swell of her breast. Then, slowly, he started to move.
Not fast.
Just a slow grind. No rhythm. No rush.
His hips rolled forward, deep and measured, dragging the full length of himself inside her before pulling back just a little and easing in again. Each motion deliberate, each inch claimed with reverence, like he was tracing a path his body already knew but wanted to relearn with new devotion. The slow drag of skin against skin had him breathing heavier, jaw tight as he buried himself again, deeper than before, staying there for a long moment. He shifted his angle slightly, adjusting until he felt her body clench tighter, until her breath caught and her hips twitched in response. He did it again, slower this time, like he wanted to memorize the way she wrapped around him. Like he didn’t want to miss a single inch. Not now. Not ever.
“Shit, mama..." he breathed low into her hair. "You feel that?"
A moan broke from her, soft and breathy. Not fully awake, but fully aware. Her hand moved down, searching for his and lacing their fingers together at her waist. Her legs spread a little more, offering more of herself in that quiet, wordless way.
He kissed her again, slower this time, lips brushing the back of her shoulder, then down along her spine. His other hand ran up the length of her thigh, fingers digging gently into her skin.
Then another grind. Slow, slick, full-bodied.
He pressed deeper, hips rolling into hers with perfect control. Every push brought a new sigh, a new shiver.
His voice was low, thick, reverent.
“Still fits me like it missed me."
She made a sound, half whimper, half moan, her toes curling under the sheet. He pulled her closer still, tilting his hips to hit the spot that made her shake, his breath hot and shaking against her skin.
He laid his forehead against her shoulder again, hips rolling with steady pressure. No urgency. No speed. Just depth. Just grind. Like he wanted to live inside the feeling.
“That’s it, baby... just like that,” he whispered.
The sound of them was soaked and subtle. The kind of rhythm that didn’t need power to feel overwhelming. Just skin. Just sweat. Just steady, reverent want.
She was waking now. Fully.
Her breath came faster. Her fingers gripped his. Her hips met his rhythm with soft rolls of their own.
He stayed right there.
Still deep.
Still moving.
Still home.
She barely had time to register the shift before he moved. A subtle lift of her leg, a shift of his hips, and Xavier rolled her onto her back with a smoothness that spoke of practice, of familiarity, of quiet hunger he couldn’t hold down anymore. There was no rush in his movements, just intention, just the steady weight of a man who knew exactly what he wanted and how to take his time getting it.
The covers slid off her body as they moved, pooling around her waist like a discarded secret. Warmth spilled into the room from the hallway light, golden and soft, casting shadows across her skin. Her hair fanned out against the pillow, wild and beautiful, framing a face still flushed from sleep and pleasure. Her eyes fluttered open, heavy-lidded but locked on him now like she saw him for the first time and every time all at once.
He settled between her legs, staying deep, staying slow. His chest hovered over hers, the heat of him radiating into her skin. He was still inside her, still thick and pulsing, and when he pressed forward just a bit more, they both exhaled like they needed that breath to survive. Like they were finally back where they belonged.
His hands framed her face at first, thumbs brushing her cheeks. Then they drifted downward along her neck, down her sides, across the dip of her waist. One hand cupped her breast, thumb teasing her nipple until she gasped softly. Her hands found his chest, fingers splayed across his skin, gripping him like she was afraid he might disappear if she let go.
They didn’t look away.
His hips began to move again, slow and rolling, dragging the full length of him through her before pressing back in with a rhythm that made time feel irrelevant. Each stroke was more than a movement; it was worship, a deep ache soothed by the stretch and glide of him inside her. Every stroke was deliberate, every pull back an invitation to feel more, to fall deeper, to surrender to the rhythm only they knew. Her legs wrapped around his waist, holding him there, anchoring them both in the moment. She could feel the heat of his skin, the flex of his muscles under her hands, the way his breath grew heavier with each grind. He kept his eyes locked on hers, a storm of emotion in them, as if every second buried inside her was a promise, an unspoken vow that he wasn't going anywhere. Their connection pulsed like a current, alive and rising, building between their bodies until neither of them could tell where one ended, and the other began.
Their bodies moved like a conversation. Like a language only they could speak. And when he leaned in closer, lips brushing hers, he didn’t whisper. He said it plain, low, rough.
"Gon' have to put a ring on this pussy... keep it locked down."
Her breath hitched. Her thighs trembled, clamping tighter around him. The moan that escaped her was soft but charged, like she felt it everywhere. Not just in her body, but in her chest. Her heart.
Xavier smirked, that slow, boyish curl of his lips that always came just before he did something reckless. But there was weight behind his eyes, something deeper. Something that said he wasn’t playing.
She reached for him, hands sliding to his shoulders, then his face, thumbs brushing along his jawline. He dipped his head and kissed her again, open-mouthed and slow, tongue teasing hers, swallowing every sigh she gave him.
He stayed deep the whole time. Every motion was full of intention. Slow, grinding strokes that made the bed creak under them. That made her arch up into him, whispering his name without sound.
Their chests pressed flush, sweat slicking where their skin met, a sheen of heat that made every inch of contact electric. He kissed her again. And again. Open-mouthed and lingering, like he needed to taste every sound she made. One hand gripped her thigh, fingers digging into the soft flesh as he held her steady, while the other braced by her head, anchoring them both to the bed. Her fingers tangled in his hair, nails gently scraping along his scalp, her body arching to meet his with every push forward.
He began to move a little harder, still with that maddening slowness, but now with a deeper grind, each stroke dragging a breathier moan from her throat. He tilted his hips, adjusting his angle until he found that perfect spot, the one that made her hips jerk, her eyes flutter, her nails dig into his back with desperate little scratches. The pressure was deliberate, each thrust pressing into her with greedy rhythm and unrelenting weight, like he was trying to carve himself into her from the inside out.
The wet sound of them filled the room, thick and filthy, every motion slick and loud. Her thighs trembled around him, her toes curling, her mouth slack with need. He leaned into her neck, biting down gently before dragging his tongue across the same spot, groaning low when she arched up to meet him.
The edge in his movement wasn’t just hunger; it was ownership. Possession. Like he needed to mark every inch, stretch her wide and deep until there was no space left for doubt. Like he needed her to feel it for days.
"This pussy mine," he growled against her skin, not even waiting for her to answer, like he already knew.
The bed creaked with every thrust, their rhythm messy now but locked in. She met him stroke for stroke, body straining toward him like her bones couldn’t stand not being closer. Her moans were shameless, unfiltered, her fingers gripping his ass just to pull him deeper.
It wasn’t love-making anymore.
It was filth and worship, muscle and devotion, the kind of sex that rewired your body and took root in your memory like it had a home there.
She breathed through it. Moaned into it. Loved every second.
And all the while, he watched her.
Her body trembled beneath him, every muscle quivering as the slow grind turned into a deeper pulse, his hips rolling into her with a rhythm that felt carved from instinct. Her breath hitched, eyes fluttering open before falling shut again as sensation overtook her. Her hands clung to his arms, nails dragging lightly down to his forearms, leaving little red trails of proof, soft and stinging. Her legs stayed wrapped tight around his waist, heels pressed into the small of his back, hips lifting to meet every push like she couldn’t get enough, like she never wanted it to end, like she didn’t know where he stopped and she began.
Xavier kept the rhythm steady, deep, and anchoring as his forehead pressed to hers. Their noses brushed, breath mingling in the scant space between them, his lips ghosting across hers between groans. His eyes were locked on hers, dark and unwavering, full of heat but layered with something quieter, heavier.
“You right here with me, baby,” he whispered, voice low and thick, voice barely there but carrying everything. “Stay with me.”
He kissed her, slow at first, just the press of lips, warm and reverent, then deeper, messy and hot, tongue sweeping hers, devouring the soft moans she gave him. She whimpered into the kiss, one hand sliding up into his hair, curling in the thick coils like she needed to hold onto something real. She was close. He felt it in the way her thighs trembled around his hips, in the stutter of her breath, in the way her body clamped down around him like she was trying to pull him deeper, keep him there. Like she never wanted him to leave again.
When she came, it was full-body. A slow build to a breaking wave, back arching, legs shaking, her mouth falling open in a silent cry before the sound spilled out. She gripped him hard, arms pulling him down as if trying to fold him into her. Her breath caught like a sob, every nerve ending lit up with sensation.
He didn’t pull out.
Didn’t stop.
Just stayed buried in her, his rhythm slowing to something raw and dragging, pushing into her with aching care, like he wanted every inch of her to remember him. He gave her everything with every stroke, slow, thick, deliberat,e until the drag of him inside her felt like it was stitched into her skin. The sounds between them were wet, guttural, soaked with filth and devotion. His breath hitched against her neck, teeth grazing the skin there, not biting but marking, branding.
He let out a low, broken groan as he shoved in one last time, staying there, balls deep, his hips trembling. His release came hot and hard, thick spurts painting her walls while he pulsed deep inside, the warmth spreading slowly, filling her up until she whimpered from how good it felt. His body locked against hers, chest heaving, sweat rolling down his spine in thin rivers. Her pussy clenched around him, holding him in, milking every last drop.
He gasped her name, voice hoarse, like the taste of her was still in his mouth. It left him in a moan, deep and cracked open. His hands stayed on her hips, squeezing until she whined. Then one slid up to cup her breast, thumb flicking across her nipple as she twitched under him. The other dragged across her stomach, pressing gently into her belly where he just filled her.
He didn’t move. Didn’t even try. Just kept his dick buried inside that slick heat, breathing hard against her shoulder, their sweat slicking them together. They were soaked, messy, joined at every point, from breath to skin to where they were still connected down low.
His heart was beating so hard she could feel it against her chest. Her legs didn’t move. Her hands stayed tangled in his hair. The world narrowed down to the sound of his panting, the twitch of him inside her, and the delicious aftershock crawling through every inch of her body.
And he knew there was no walking away from this pussy. Not now. Not ever.
Their bodies stayed tangled. His chest pressed firm to hers. His face buried in the crook of her neck, breath ghosting warm across her skin. Her hands traced slow circles across his back, fingertips skating through the heat and damp. Neither of them moved. They just held on, letting the stillness stretch, breathing in each other like they needed the reminder they were here, whole, wrapped up in something too good to name.
Minutes passed, maybe more. Then his voice, hoarse and low against her cheek, a tired smile behind it:
“Next time I’m on the road that long? You comin’ with me. Don’t care if I gotta book two rooms or bring your ass to walkthroughs.”
She smiled against his skin, her breath brushing his jaw, too breathless and full to answer.
“This is really simple, like middle school math.” Justin paused, flipping the math paper towards you. “It is just subtracting the y-coordinates then subtracting the x-coordinates.” He hummed, handing the mechanical pencil towards you as he grabbed your pen in return.
You hummed, chewing on your pink almond nails. “Okayy, I think I got this!” You smiled, quickly going back to the work.
After a couple minutes passed you turned the back the paper towards Justin with a wide smile on your face, feeling very proud of yourself in the moment.
Justins eyes roam around the paper for a couple seconds and immediately sighs, shaking his head. “No, you did it wrong.” His voice defeated as he slowly looked up at you.
Your smile immediately falters, the mechanical pencil that was once on your hand is now on the table. “Really? I thought I did it 100% right!” You hummed, slouching in the chair as you crossed your arms.
Justin sat up tall again as he fully changed his gaze to the paper, fixing up all the work you did work.
As Justin was rambling about what you did wrong your mind went blank, instead of thinking about the work you were only thinking about your clothes.
“J. We need to go shopping, I’m running low on clothes.” You frowned, letting out a long sigh as you look up at Justin from your nails.
Justin’s gaze immediately flickers up to you, tilting his head slightly. “We’re doing your work and all you can think of is shopping?” He says somewhat serious, his eyes narrowing slightly.
You gave him a pout as you looked up at him through your lashes, shrugging slightly. “Maybe..” You hummed, your gaze strictly staying on his.
Justin lets out a long sigh as he shakes his head, looking back down at your work as he starts erasing his mistakes. “Hmm.” He hums, ignoring you quickly after as he try’s to keep his gaze on the work.
You rolled your eyes, your gaze going back to your manicured nails. After a quiet few minutes you had opened your mouth again. “J?” You asked, tilting your head.
Justin tilts his head also, his gaze flickering away from the homework once again. “Yes?” He answered as he dropped the pencil, his whole focus being on you again.
“Do you like the nickname, J?” You mumbled, keeping your pout on your face as you slouched in the chair across from him.
Justin awkwardly shrugged, his face turning into a light pink. “Y-yeah, why?” He awkwardly coughed, his gaze flickering between the papers and you.
You nodded, a small smile appearing on your face. “Okay good! I love it, you’re like the only person I have a nickname for!” You beamed, fixing the sleeves of your blouse.
Justins face stayed the shade of light pink, nodding slightly as he fixed his gaze on the paper infront of you two. He gave you a half smile, his dimples becoming slightly more apparent.
rushed ending..idk where this story was going ૮꒰◞ ˕ ◟ ྀི꒱ა
I've answered this a few times here, here, and here, but now is as good a time as any for an update!
i might brake, but i won’t - gotta start with this INCREDIBLE fic by @cupidanalog oh my god legitimately life changing how good it is. just such a great job going into joe's Weird little idiosyncrasies about sex and about ja'marr, and ja'marr himself is so well written in here too!
speaking of, that's the only fic that cupid has posted on ao3, but their whole blog is full of gems like this little snippet about a drunk, longing joe; this and this little mindreading au that absolutely killed me; this kid au i rb'ed recently that is SO sweet; oh and a little streamer au idea they've been cooking! (i could go on and on but i'll stop here)
and thank you, too, this knuckleheaded heart is an INSTANT classic by casey ( @aberfaeth ). a little magical realism silly story about the bengals mascot coming to life, that then turns into a beautiful journey of joe'marr discovering their feelings for each other! (and also hits me right in my feelings about the city of cincinnati!) so fucking good, casey absolutely nails these guys and the Weird Ways they love <3
on your tongue is an anonymous fic that's been uploaded on ao3 recently and oh my god i am DYING to know who the author is and if they're on here, because it's absolutely incredible. a little FWB/fake dating fic that has suuuuch good sex scenes and also is a great exploration into ja'marr's mindset throughout it all and UGH i am obsessed with it truly!!
To see what condition my condition was in by @wagtivities was also just added on ao3 and it is Weird and Freaky and absolutely Delightful. exactly the kind of kinky creativity we always need more of in the fandom! deals with joe's issues with bodily autonomy and Scars. and how he and ja'marr explore all that (plus ja'marr boypussy like hello??? yes!!!)
spit cup is a GREAT one by kia ( @saviorified ) dealing with joebortion! (joe gets an abortion) and all the complicated feelings and issues that come with that (along with working through it with ja'marr...more or less 🥲). definitely something that should be explored in fandom more and kia did a BEAUTIFUL job with it!! bittersweet, nuanced, and such a good read.
i'll leave it at those for now, but make sure you check out my previous rec posts too! i say this every time but when i joined this fandom there were TWO (2) joe'marr fics on ao3 and now we've got over a hundred 🥹🥹 (which still isn't NEARLY enough. cough cough if this were hockey sky writing post, but also i'm still so thrilled about it so i can't complain too much!)

Summary:
Lamar locks on Derrick, holds his gaze—two, three, four full heartbeats. Some old Tennessee feeling needles through Derrick the second Lamar lifts his eyes to him; the stamp of postgame tangles and handshakes snatched away on the move. Whatever it is, he blinks it away, lets something else slide across his face, and answers, "Nothing crazy."
