Because I Need You
Because I Need you
OA X Reader
Y/N’s Pov
Things were hard lately. Work has been a lot lately we were working a rough case and everyone was on edge.
A serial killer was kidnapping young women around town. It was young women on their way home from work. Most of them were 9-5 people who were just trying to get home.
We figured it was because it was easy to track and follow. This killer was different though it seemed like he didn’t have a cooling off period.
It was like clock work every day at the same time we were discovering someone new,
Every time we felt like we were getting somewhere close we just ended right back up at square one again.
It was all taking a major toll on all of us. Literally watching the minutes click down until someone else has lost their life.
None of us had been home in days. We were each taking turns sleeping in the breakroom. None of us could fall asleep though. I mean how could you knowing what was going to happen.
You all would take a moment to eat and take a breather as much as you could. It was hard because you knew you needed to be on top of your game you had to take care of yourself but every time you did it felt like a waste of time.
Like right now you were currently sitting outside. Letting the sun hit your face, you were looking down at your lunch not being able to eat.
You were just re playing every connection in your head. Where could we go from here. Where can we look at next to help.
You were so in your head you didn’t even notice when OA came and sat down next to you. He placed his hand softly on the top of yours in order to get your attention.
“Hey talk to me” He said.
You snapped your neck up to look at him. He gave you a worried look on his face,. His big brown eyes not breaking contact with you.
“I uh i’m good just a little tired” You said lying through your teeth.
He knew you better than that. He knew how exhausted and tired you were.
“Y/N come on it’s me” He said
You took a deep breath in and let it all out.
“I am just worried about it you know the time i’m just eating could be time doing something” You said.
“We are doing everything we can to help but you still gotta worry about yourself” OA said.
“I know but it’s not enough people are still dying” You said
“Yes but that’s on us we are doing everything we possibly can” OA said
“I don’t know i just” You said struggling to find the words.
“I know were all feeling it but please eat something i know you haven’t eaten sense last night” OA said.
You just looked at your food you were way to tired exhausted to do anything
“Please and then were taking a break were gonna go lay down” OA pleaded.
You just gave him a confused look and his entire face had turned bright pink red.
“I would abosoloutely love to go lay down with you. Is that what you do with all your friends” You asked pushing your arm into his.
“Shut the hell up you know what i meant” He said smiling.
I mean you weren’t complaining about the thought of laying down next to him. You had such a massive crush on him. I mean have you seen him he’s so damn beautiful.
“Sure i know” You said winking at him.
“Look you gotta share this with me you haven’t either so you gotta eat something to.” You said breaking your food in half.
You basically threw it in his hand so he couldn’t have said no. you picked up half and toasted him and he toasted it right back.
You were feeling a smidge better eating something and sitting next to OA always made you feel better.
You both ate in silence and when you were done he got up and stuck his hand out to grab yours.
You took it and he pulled you out of the seat. You both headed out and it was quiet on the way down.
You knew he was right that you needed sleep. You could feel like your body was on it’s way to just giving out
Finally after an entirety you made it to the bunker room and collapsed on the bed. You closed your eyes for a moment while your body felt like it was taking a deep breath.
You opened them up to just seeing OA standing in the corner.
“What are you doing over there I thought you were supposed to lay down with me” You asked ‘
“Uh yeah no it’s fine it’s just one bed in here I’ll go somewhere else i just wanted to make sure you were okay” OA said twisting his ring.
“Don’t be crazy let’s go” You said sitting up and reaching out for him.
He smiled and reached out and grabbed your hand. You squeezed it and laid down. OA sat down at first and then slowly laid down like the bed was going to break in two.
As soon as you felt him lay down you lifted up and laid your head on his chest. You could feel his heart beating. It was going super fast and honestly it was such a comforting sound.
Not even a few moments later you fell asleep into a deep sleep. You didn’t even set a timer to wake you up.
Your body needed the sleep. You haven’t slept a wink in days.
OA just countied to lay there watching you sleep for a moment. His heart beating fast at the fact you were so close next to him.
He was the responsible one who set a timer to wake you both up and just a few moments later he fell asleep just along with you.
1 Hour Later
OA’s alarm had gone off you were so upset because it was the best sleep you had gotten in months.
You groaned waking up and squinting your eyes.
“Mm do we have to” You said not lifting your head up.
OA has his arms wrapped around you in a big bear hug. It felt so nice
“I know I know we have to” OA said groggily.
He unwrapped his arms around you and you sat up wiping the sleep from your eyes. No doubt you looked a hot mess.
OA was looking up at you and smiled.
“You look beautiful” OA said.
Your face turned blood red and you smiled at him. His face looked worried like he wasn’t sure how you were going to react.
“No i don’t look at me i’m at a hot mess” You said groaning.
OA moved some hair out of your face and smiled.
“No your always beautiful” OA said
“So are you such a beautiful man” You said.
It was OA’s turn to blush now. His face turning red as a beet.
“Come on they need us” You said.
You got up and reached a hand out to help OA. He smiled and grabbed it.
The two of you tried your best to spruce yourself up and then headed out. You made your way back to the JOC. When Jubal was approaching you both in the hallway.
“Hey perfect timing we got something we need all agents and you to go out to the scene” Jubal said.
“What no why she’s not even an agent” OA said.
“I know but we need a team on the lot to help give real up to date information it’s a big plot service is bad down there” Jubal said.
“Hey it’s no big deal i’ll be fine i’ve done it before” You said
OA was tense and you could tell he was still upset but he ended up dropping it.
“Come on i’ll get ready” You said.
“Thank you were out in 15” Jubal said placing a hand on your arm.
You walked to the closet where equipment was that you could take out with you. OA had followed you helping you pack your stuff.
“Hey are you sure” OA said.
“I’m good seriously why are you being so overprotective I mean more than usual” You said asking.
OA just looked down at ring nervously twisting it.
“Because this guy is dangerous” OA said
“They are all” You counterbacked.
You walked over and grabbed his hands and made him look up at you.
“What is going on” You said .
“I can’t loose you everyone keeps getting hurt and dying and being held up at gunpoint and I can’t let that happen to you” OA said in a sad tone is voice cracking a bit.
You knew it had been hard on him. No one liked Rina really but it was still hard and shocking. Maggie had taken a hit and he still hasn’t processed his own attack. So honestly you weren't surprised.
“Hey look at me nothing is going to happen i’ll be with Ian and Jubal if anything i’m the one worried about you” You told him.
You could see a tiny bit of relief in his eyes when he knew you would be in the company of others.
You pulled him into a tight hug. He squeezed you back hard like it was the last one ever. You both let go and he smiled down at you
“Let’s go” You said grabbing the bag.
He gave you a look and he grabbed the bag from you carrying it out. He acted like your arms were gonna fall off if you carried something.
“Such a gentleman” You said laughing
“Shut up” OA said laughing.
You both walked out and stood and went to OA’s desk and a few seconds later everyone came out and joined you guys.
“Ready” Jubal said
“Hell yeah let’s go” Maggie said
You all walked out and got into the cars. Maggie refused to let OA drive which made him grumpy the whole time.
It was quiet the whole ride. Everyone is trying to get their heads right. Needing to make sure your head was clear.
About 30 minutes later you arrived to your scene. It was a giant filed with a tiny little farm house looking thing. It was such a creepy looking scene.
“You guys clear the house where set up right over here” Jubal said.
You grabbed OA’s hand and gave it a squeeze. You gave him a smile and a nod. Telling him to stay safe.
They went on and you all set up as fast as you could. A few moments laters swat and search and rescue showed up.
You all were working hard to see if there was anything out there to help find the missing girl.
Right now your suspect was 32 Year old David Ross. His mom was killed when he was young by an intruder . He owned this lot inherited to him by his mom where she passed.
It was such a meeting thing to think about.
You were surveying the plot seeing if anything made sense or stuck out. Was land changed anywhere where was something there that wasn’t supposed to be there.
It was taking forever. You guys were there a solid 2 . Almost pushing three. We had to beat the dark and this twisted timeline we were stuck on.
It felt like a dead end
Finally something stuck out. A drone showed a small shed type thing about 10 yards away. That has to be it.
“Hey i got something a shed about 10 yards away” You said yelling out loud.
“Yeah yeah that’s it” Jubal said
Jubal radio it over the walker and everyone wasn’t breathing at that point. We risked it all if that wasn’t it. Showing this son of a bitch we were here.
Would he get scared and kill her ? Try to harm others.
What felt like eternity the walkie went off
“We got her alive” Scola said
Everyone just let out a breath at the same time. We all started clapping and cheering.
They started walking out towards you guys and OA and Maggie had the guy in handcuffs.
“We did it y’all we got them” Jubal said high fiving everyone.
You all started packing up your stuff and heading out. It was such a relief. Like the weight of the world was lifted off your shoulders. At least for now anyways, until the next case came along. And it was placed right back on there.
On the way back everyone was talking about how they wanted to celebrate. You only cared about one thing. Where was he gonna be
You made it back and by that time we were all heading out to a local bar \ restaurant so Jubal could come and join.
It was a friday night so that son of a bitch was going to sit in a cell until Monday morning so they dropped his ass off and ran.
Thankfully Isobel said paperwork could wait so we didn’t even think twice. You were currently sitting at OA’s desk while he packed up.
“So are you going out with them” You asked
“Eh I don’t know not in the mood to go out” OA said
“Yeah me either do you wanna grab some takeout and watch a movie” you asked
OA looked over at you and flashed a smile
“Its a date” He said
He got up and grabbed your hand and the two of you walked out.
You got into his car and he made his way down to your place. You got chinese food from the corner place you both loved.
You both were settling in now. You changed into some Pj’s and OA had some left over clothes. It wasn’t the first time he spent the night. In a non romantic OA safe way. He would always sleep on the couch no matter what.
After you both were deciding what movie to watch you wanted a thrasher killer. But OA said it was to much which most would think but it’s your fave genre.
So you both settled on some comedy movie to lighten the mood.
“Why are you eating all the chicken” You groaned
“Because it’s too good and I don’t want you to have any” He said laughing
“That’s so mean” You pouted.
He took some chicken and threw it in your box.
“happy “ He asked
“Well now I am” You said throwing some food back at him
“Oh really so uncalled for” He said trying to act offended .
He took his fork and flung his fork full of rice at you.
It hit all over you and you then returned the favor big time. You picked up a big pile of noodles and held it in the air.
OA gave you a look like you better not. But of course you did.
“omg “ was all he was able to say.
He took the noodles he could and threw them back at you. Then after that it was a full on food fight.
At one point the two of you stood up and was trying to hide from it. Laughter was filling up the air.
“A truce come on” OA said breathing hard
“Fine but only because were out of food” You said laughing.
You both walked into the middle of the room. You secretly had something behind your back because you didn’t trust him one bit. He looked at you like he was dis trustful
He grabbed your arm and tried forcing you to drop the food
“I knew it” OA said.
You got real close to his face and whispered
“That’s what you get” You said trying not to break eye contact.
Suddenly OA moved in closer and so did you. He slammed his lips against yours and you kissed him back hard. You dropped your food on the floor wrapping your arms around him,
He grabbed you close filling the gap. You two stopped after a second needing air to breathe.
“I love you” OA said
“I love you more” You said
OA took your hand and led you back to the bedroom. He looked at you and placed his hand on your face.
“I want to” You said knowing he wasn’t going to pressure you
He kissed you back slowly and you pulled him onto the bed. The two of you not caring about how sticky or messy you were
. None of those made up in your head scenarios help a flame to this.
After you looked at him.
“I think I need a shower and new sheets” You said laughing
“Yes to both of those” OA said smiling back
“I’m so glad we stayed home” You said.
“I needed you tonight to be here and with me. You can always bring me back and every other night” OA said
“I need you more always i wouldn’t have been okay without you ” You whispered back .
He had no idea how true that was. It was a rough case but the night ended so much better.
There was always going to be hard and rough cases but as long as you had OA they were just a little less rough
