Intro: Hello lovelies!! Sorry there wasn’t any story out over the weekend, I’ve been absolutely swamped with school, but I hope you guys enjoy! This was requested by an anon! :)
Note: Y/N is gender neutral, trigger warning for depression, otherwise pure sweetness, Italics mean flashbacks.

Hi, lovely! If you’re not okay with writing this that’s completely okay. But could you write something for RxSuperfriends (especially the ladies) where R isn’t feeling great mentally. And the Superfriends are there for her? Again, it’s completely fine if you’re not okay with writing this! Xx
You were the newest and the youngest of the gang, having started at the DEO just a few months ago, fresh out of college and everyone seemed to become friends with you rather quickly; you just had this personality that drew everyone to you, but just like everyone else you had problems of your own and you kept them hidden pretty well until you just couldn’t take it anymore. Everyone noticed as you started acting different, you weren’t as cheerful anymore and you missed work which you never did, you just weren’t your usual self.
After about a week of you acting off, Kara called a group meeting “Something’s wrong with Y/N” she said once everyone was settled into their seats, everyone minus you “You noticed that as well?” Lena asked, looking at Kara and crossing her legs “I think we all did” Alex sighed, resting her arms on the table in front of her “We need to help her” Kara said, looking at everyone and Winn looked at her with an eyebrow raised “How do you expect us to do that if we don’t even know what’s wrong?” he asked, looking at her and watching as she grinned “I have just the plan”.
The next day, Kara’s plan was on and when you first sluggishly walked in that morning, Winn walked up to you with two coffee’s in hand “For you” he said, giving you a smile as he handed you one of the coffee’s “Uh… Thanks?” You said softly, taking a tentative sip and giving the smallest of smiles when you realized it was your favorite “You’re welcome” Winn said, giving you a small wink before he headed off and you headed towards your office “Hey, Y/N” Nia said, placing a hand on your shoulder and giving you a smile before giving you something in a paper baggy, causing you to raise an eyebrow as you took a peak in the paper bag and saw that it was a few of your favorite snacks “Thank you” you said softly, looking at Nia who smiled at you before she headed off to do her thing and you headed to your office, setting all your stuff down before sitting in your chair and releasing a breath as you let yourself relax for once.
Later that day, you hadn’t gotten much better even with all the nice things the guys were doing for you, Kara had taken you to lunch with her and Lena, Alex left you a treat on your desk, but it only did so much. You sighed as you got up and got your things together, you thought about what triggered your depression.
You had just gotten back to your apartment and looked at your phone, frowning as it once again showed you had nothing new, your family have disowned you shortly after you had moved to National City since you had come out to them and they didn’t like that and ever since they had not tried to contact you.
You woke up from your thoughts when there was a knock at your door, you sniffed and wiped your eyes since you had started to cry without realizing it, looking at the door “It’s open!” You called, throwing your bag over your shoulder and watching as Kara came in “Hey, me and the others are having a small get together… Come with?” Kara asked, giving you a look and you knowing it wasn’t a question and nodding before following her out.
When you got to Karas place, you set your stuff down and sat down on the couch between Lena and Alex “How are you, Y/N?” Lena asked, wrapping an arm around you and smiling at you, all of the team having basically claimed you as a part of their family “I’m okay” you lied, looking at Lena and looking away “You don’t look okay” Winn said, looking at you as Kara kneeled down in front of you and rested her hands on your legs “You can talk to us” she said, looking at you with a worried expression and you glancing around to see everyone else looking at you worriedly which caused you to let out a small sob before Kara quickly moved to pull you into a hug, letting you cry into her shoulder “What’s going on, Y/N?” Lena asked, rubbing your back and glancing at Kara whose heart was breaking hearing you cry and feeling you cling to her as tight as you were, you pulling back and taking some deep breaths to calm down before you explained what had happened “Screw your family” Alex said, causing you to freeze slightly and look at her “They don’t see the wonderful person you are and what you can do, we’re your family now and we don’t care what you are… You’re you and that’s all that matters” she said, looking at you and tensing slightly when you threw yourself at her before she wrapped her arms around you “Group hug” Kara said, joining in on the hug before everyone else did the same “I love you guys” you muttered into Alexs shoulder, smiling and feeling your heart swell “We love you too” Lena said, giving you a small squeeze before everyone pulled back “Game night?” Kara asked, looking at you guys and you smiled as you followed everyone into the kitchen to get snacks, thinking of what a great family you now had and how you were starting to feel a lot better.

If you're talking requests, can you please do a Winn x reader where his girlfriends decides to be James's vigilante partner, the Angel, and Winn is helping her design her suit?
(Y/N)- Your Name
A/N- I know nothing about designing clothes or anything like that but I gave this my best shot. Hopefully you like it.
You had decided that you wanted to be James's vigilante partner. It took quite a bit of convincing for both James and Winn to agree but eventually they realized that having another person out there with James who knew how to fight would be beneficial for them. There were a couple of stipulations though. They were that you couldn't go with James until you had a suit, the suit was to be made by Winn, you absolutely could not tell anyone about James being the guardian not even Alex or Kara, and lastly don't be reckless. You understood though that most of those stipulations were because Winn was worried. You were his girlfriend after all and he had the right to worry Some of the people and occasional aliens that James fought had left him with an array of injuries. Winn just didn't want to see the same happen to you. You knew you would be as safe as possible though because Winn was helping you design and build your suit. You were discussing the design with him. You had just officially decided your vigilante name would be Angel.
"Ok, since you want to be called Angel for your vigilante name you have to have wings. It only makes since plus that could also help for if you come across any meta-humans or aliens who are able to fly. You don't want them to be too big and bulky though or they could interfere with you speed and maneuvering when fighting on the ground. They are probably going to be the hardest part in figuring out how to design them and what material to build them with." You smiled as you listened to him and were happy he was helping you create your suit. He definitely knew what he was talking about and you would have never thought about how your wings would interfere with you fighting on the ground.
"Alright, well we can worry about what materials to build it with later babe. Right now how about we try to finish designing the rest of my suit and then figure out how to build it." You said to him as you rested your head on his shoulder. He gave a soft chuckle and kissed the top of your head.
"Yea you're right baby. I just am so excited about designing and building your suit. I guess I got a little ahead of myself there. Sorry (Y/N)."
"No reason to apologize Winn. I love that you are so excited about helping me. Now for the pants and shoe area. I definitely want pants no skirts or anything like that. Also please no heeled boots. I feel like they would mess with my balance too much and throw me off." You told Winn. He nodded along to what you were saying as he was making notes He wanted to make sure that he designed your suit to resemble what you wanted as closely as possible but still make it functional for fighting.
"Ok no skirts. I can do that and for the shoe area do you want something that would go up to your knee like supergirls boots or would you rather something that resembles more of like high-top shoes?" Winn asked you. You took a second to think about it trying to decide which one you would rather have. They both had their pros and cons.
"Would you be able to design something like a high-top shoe but make it to where it automatically tightens to fit me perfectly so that there is no chance of it slipping off? I feel like that would be the best option if its at all possible." Winn wrote something down real quick You couldn't really tell what it was because his handwriting was becoming progressively more messy the longer he wrote
"Yea. I should be able to do that. That was a good idea (Y/N). I didn't even think about that." You smiled as a blush began to take over your face. Winn gave you a quick kiss on the cheek before continuing with his note taking.
"Ok so for the top I was thinking of having like maybe 2 layers. That way it might be easier to design the wings and make them fit properly with the rest of the suit" You weren't exactly sure how 2 layers would help with that but you trusted your boyfriend so you just nodded your head.
"I think a leather jacket type of top would be good. Its not as easy to cut through but it is also flexible. Yea I could do something with a material like leather maybe make it a bit stronger but keep it lightweight so it doesn't slow you down." Winn started to talk more to himself at this point. He was rambling about the different kind of materials and what would be best for certain parts of your suit. Eventually you began to get tired. You couldn't really help it. Winn voice was so relaxing and soothing.
"Hey Winn how about we put a pause on this for the night and go to bed. Maybe after a goods night sleep we will wake up with new ideas on how to make the suit even better." You said to him. He smiled at you and nodded his head. He organized all the notes and little sketches he had made before the both of you headed to bed. In the morning you could both look over what you had and get James to give his opinion on it. See what he thinks about it. Then hopefully after that you would be able to go with James and do vigilante work with him and your boyfriend.
Winn: When he initially woke up he had planned on having a lazy day. He just wanted to spend his birthday with you and not have to worry about work. He made sure he had the day off so he was feeling pretty giddy when he first woke up. You had just finished making breakfast for him when he walked in and he looked so excited seeing his favorite breakfast being prepared. When breakfast was over you sent a quick text to a group chat containing the danvers sisters, James and J’onn. You made sure Winn didn’t notice because the text you were sending them was letting them know it's go time. So when Winn got a phone call you weren't surprised and had been expecting it. When he hung up he looked so upset and defeated that you felt a twinge of regret. He told you he had to into work, that J’onn called him in and honestly if this wasn’t part of the plan you would’ve called J’onn yourself to see if you could argue a case for him to stay home. However it was part of the plan so when Winn came back out of the bedroom ready to go you gave him a quick kiss and he was on his way. After he left you had quickly went to work setting up the surprise party. When you were done you had texted the group chat and they quickly sent everyone over. You had gotten a call from Winn and he told you he was on his way home. Confusion evident in his voice as he explained to you how when he went to the DEO J’onn claimed to have not called him. Then before he left he was stopped by both Kara and Alex asking him to settle an argument between them and just when was about to take a step out of the DEO Mon-El stopped him and took him to a nearby bar. When he was at the door he had hung up to put his key in and unlock it. The second he closed the door again and turned on the lights everyone had jumped out yelling “Surprise!”. Suddenly his confusing day made sense and as he was looking around the room someone had piped up that this was your idea. His grin got even wider and he brought you into a hug, thanking you for the party.
Kara: Your girlfriend was the type to throw surprise parties for literally every she knew. She was usually on the giving end of surprise parties, very rarely the receiving end and when Alex had told you of this fact you were shocked. How come someone who loved surprise parties only rarely get them? You were even more determined when Alex had told you the story of Kara’s first surprise party and how happy, bubbly and exited she had been. It was at that moment you decided to give Kara a birthday party. You had help from Alex, who was fully on board with the idea when you told her about it. You were so excited while setting everything up at telling everyone about it, you also would've threatened people not to tell Kara about it but Alex had that part handled. The day had come and you were practically about to sky rocket into the air with how much you were jumping around and making sure everything was absolutely perfect. Nothing would go wrong your watch, otherwise there’d be hell to pay. Once everything was ready (And after triple checking) you knew it was time for the guest of honor herself to arrive. You had sent a quick text (that had been read over multiple times to make sure it was put in a way Kara wouldn’t be suspicious had she accidentally seen it) to James, who had been charge of keeping Kara busy during the day. You told everyone to find a hiding place and had glared at some poor fool who thought hiding behind a plant was a good idea (the person was very obviously visible!) and they cowered in fear of your radiating anger and found a new hiding place. The second Kara had turned on the lights when she came in (James closing it for her) everyone had jumped up and yelled. The excitement on Kara’s face made you grin as well and when she spotted you she stopped looking around. She ran over to you hugging you and quite literally lifting you up and spinning you around before putting you down. “This is amazing! I love it!” She giggled happily while saying this, looking around the room once more. “Let’s get this party started!” (You had wondered how she knew it was you later that day, wondering if someone spoiled the surprise but no one would tell you how she knew no matter how much you questioned them so you let it be. Super hearing does have it’s perks, but you didn’t need to know that she saw you were acting weird and let a moment of weakness get to her wanting to know what was up)
Lena: In all honesty Lena hadn’t had a proper birthday in years. The only surprise birthday party she ever had was the first birthday her adoptive father threw her, much to her adoptive mother’s distaste. Lena no longer cared about such trivial facts as birthday’s, after all her life is currently going pretty good if you ask her. Owner of LCorp, fantastic friends and to boot she has you in her life. Lena had told you stories of her past and when she mentioned not having an actual birthday celebration in a long time you vowed to change that. Without telling her of course because what’s better then a surprise? Nothing, that’s what. It actually wasn’t hard at all to distract her, despite what some might think. She was busy with work and when you told her your job was taking a bit of a toll on you she didn’t blink twice. Around lunch time you got a text reminding you to eat and in response you told her to do so as well. Although you added a quick second text just telling her to get home a bit early and to not eat too much lunch because you were making a huge dinner. It wasn’t a lie, just not the complete truth. Everything was all set up and your invited guest had already shown up as well. It wasn’t a lot of people just Alex, Kara, Samantha, Ruby and a couple of others. You knew Lena preferred to not have that many people anyways, just you and her closest friends (who at times felt more like family to her). You were beyond excited and ready to see her reaction. She usually gives you either a smirk or a half smile half smirk (which looks really dam hot and it’s honesty hours right now) but rarely does she give you her genuine big smile. The one that shows her pearly white and makes you melt. You really, really wanted to see that smile and when she walked in the door, after everyone jumping out and yelling surprise, you weren’t disappointed because it was the exact smile on her face that you wanted to see.
Winn: Y/N, stopping eating your gelt or you won’t have anything to put in the pot when we play dreidel later!
Y/N: *pouts, still nibbling on one* But chocolate!
Winn: Why don't you have some latkes?
Y/N: I've already had five...
((I’ve always headcanoned Winn as Jewish, but apparently canon now says otherwise. :/ But I’m still going to post this because I still like the headcanon #SorryNotSorry
Request: Can you do a Winn Schott x reader where Winn introduces the reader who is his girlfriend to the rest of the superfriends and everyone is really surprised/weary because the reader is a DEO agent who is known to be quite cold, mean, hard and is always in a bad mood/grumpy but to everyone's surprise she turns all soft around Winn? I hope you have a fabulous day!
This took me five hundred years and I am sorry.
Trigger Warnings: Meeting the Boyfriend’s friends
“I am so excited to meet your new girl!” You heard Kara squeal to Winn.
This was not at all what you wanted. Winn was supposed to be a one night stand, someone who was there with you after too many glasses of whiskey, and then took you home to have sex until you let the next morning slightly embarrassed and awkward. Instead he took you to his home, layed you down on his bed and promptly took the couch. The next morning was filled with the awkward conversation of how you two wanted to do this, but not when you were so drunk you couldn’t tell him where you lived.
From there a really sweet and caring romance began, and now you’ve been dating three months, and Winn wanted you to meet his friends. You had tried to disagree, explaining that you already knew all of this friends: you worked at the DEO with most of them. But he wanted to show you off as his girlfriend.
“Supergirl!” You shouted before Winn could respond, “Training officially started one minute ago.”
“Uh!” Kara sighed to Winn, “Will she ever stop being such a hard ass?” Kara sighed and whirled around to face you.
You gave Winn a look, this was why you didn’t want to meet his friends, they thought you were a hardass and mean person. They would probably try to get Winn to break up with you upon learning the news. Winn, to his credit, smiled assuredly at you, before turning back to his work station.
Kara brushed past you to the training room, which was already queued up with low levels of kryptonian. The two of you stood facing each other, first drawn and ready to fight.
Kara ran at you first, she leaned to favor her right side, so you ducked to the left, leaving her staggering after you. You took advantage of her disorientation and kicked at her knees, which buckled on impact.
“You can’t appear to favor one side over the other.” you stated matter o-factly.
Kara glared at you before punching you in the jaw. You had to admit it was a nice hook, but still with her right dominant hand. You touched your cheek, feeling the bruise forming, and you wanted to congratulate Kara, but she still looked mad, pulling back for another punch. You waited until just the right second before ducking down, Kara had put too much into her punch and the lack of connection had her stumbling forward.
“Never put all your strength into a blow, unless you are positive you will win with that hit.” You stated, this made Kara far angrier. You knew she didn’t like being told what to do, but in here you were her teacher, you could not go easy on her.
You punched Kara in the gut, and she fell backwards, you quickly pressed your combat boot clad feet to her neck, effectively winning the match. Kara tapped twice on the floor, and you released her.
“You are still counting on your super strenght to win the battle.” You stated, it didn’t mean to come off cold, but from the look on Kara’s face your professionalism was not accepted well. She stood with a hard glare aimed at you. “But you are improving greatly.” You offered weakly.
Kara smiled, it was tight and forced, before she walked out of the training room, leaving you alone with your thoughts. This diner tonight was going to suck, Kara already hates you, Alex thinks you’re too harsh, J’onn is wary of your professionalism and your ability to stay detached, and James Olsen just thinks you’re mean. No one is going to want you to date their pure cinnamon roll Winn.
The dinner rolled around, and for the one hundredth time you smoothed out the shirt you were wearing. All of you were meeting at a local bar, and you didn’t want to come too professional, but at the same time you worried you jeans were a little too casual for meeting your boyfriend’s friends.
Winn patted your hand gently, “Babe, you’re going to be fine, they’ll see how sweet you are and totally love you as much as I do.” You forced a smile and nodded along with what Winn was saying, knowing for sure that would not be the case.
“I just- I want your friends to like me. They are important to you, and they think I’m a hard ass.” You said, voicing your fears.
Winn leaned down, a smile on his lips, “Hey don’t worry. Tonight won’t be bad.” A chaste kiss was brushed against your lips, and you sighed, wanting more.
Later. You reminded yourself. After you win over all of Winn’s friends.
When you walked into the bar, gripping Winn’s hand tightly, you immediately saw the group you were dreading more than anything. Kara was chatting with Jimmy, who held a beer in one hand. Alex, Maggie, and J’onn all were discussing something animatedly, while M’gann leaned back watching her boyfriend with a small smile.
In that moment you felt the urge to turn around and run the other way, which was ridiculous because you could not be scared to these people. You are a DEO agent who has been on countless missions and had to deal with more hostile aliens than you could count. You absolutely couldn’t be afraid of your boyfriend’s nerdy friends. Yet there you stood, frozen to the spot, you hand sweaty in Winn’s. This is going to be a long night.
“Hey Winn! You brought your girlfriend!” M’gann shouted, waving the two of you over. M’gann was the only one to not really know you, so coincidentally she didn’t hate you upon first sight, the others however did not look happy to see you there.
“You’re doing great babe.” Winn whispered before leading you to the table and boldly proclaiming “This is Y/N! The most fabulous human being on this planet!”
M’gann squealed in delight at his words, and you leaned in more to your boisterous boyfriend. Maggie and Alex both gave you suspicious glances. You really wanted a drink.
“Hey Winn, sweetheart, I’m going to get myself a whiskey. You want anything? I can ask if they have Blue Moon here.” You stated, rising from your chair.
“Yeah sure babe, could you get me a Blue, if they don't have it-” Winn started, but you cut him off with a quick peck on the lips, temporarily forgetting about the others here, because it just reminded you so much of your and Winn’s first night.
“A Samuel Adams, I know.” You whispered, before leaving.
You walked away to the bar with a swing in your hips, happy to be away from the judgement at the table, Winn watched you go with a dopey grin.
“So,” James leaned in to Winn, keeping his voice low, “She treat you right? She’s kind of a hard ass.”
“Y/N’s the best.” Winn replied without tearing his eyes off of you, while you ordered the drinks. “Honestly, she is so sweet outside of work. I sometimes forget about her whole terminator-no feelings aloud at work- mode that you guys see.” Winn explained.
You returned minutes later with a Blue Moon and a glass of whiskey, settling in the seat next to Winn’s, you intertwined his fingers with yours, needing his touch to calm you. The table seemed to warm up to you slightly in your absence, but most were still wary. It was M’gann who engaged in a conversation with you, she was sweet, trying to pull the awkward tension away from you, by talking about yourself.
Most of the questions were superficial about you life, but you still found a way to relate all of the answers back to Winn, which everyone saw super cute.
M’gann asked what your favourite color is?
You answered Greenish Brown, the same color of Winn’s Eyes.
Than M’gann asked if you enjoyed working at the DEO.
You answered, Yes, the best part is that I get to see Winn every day.
The questions proceeded like that throughout the night, until it was time for all of you to go home. You decided you needed to use the bathroom before heading off, and slipped in back to the disgusting ladies room, Kara followed you in.
“Hey, Y/N.” Kara spoke as you washed your hands, you turned to her, not in the slightest surprised, you knew she had been following you.
“Yeah Kara?” You sighed, waiting for her to tell you what you already knew. You aren’t good enough for Winn.
“I just wanted to say I misjudged you. You are always kind of cold at work, and I assumed you would be a bad fit for Winn, because he is so bubbly and Winn-like. But I could tell you loved him tonight. Just by the way you talk about him. And he loves you too. I just- I’m sorry.” Kara rushed the words out, her head bowed in shame.
“Kara, it’s okay. Everybody makes mistakes.” You stated, grabbing her arm gently. She turned to stare at you, in shock at the connection, “And I wanted you to know, I’m such a hardass, because I want you to be safe out there. I know I should be a little nicer, but I’d rather have you angry with me and alive than all buddy-buddy and dead.”
You exited the bathroom, before Kara could respond, taking Winn’s hand as he waited for you outside the bathroom. He squeezed your hand once, and you squeezed back. Winn had been right, tonight wasn’t all bad.
Summary: Reader and Winn are having a friendly movie night when Y/N wants to watch the Newsies musical from Broadway because she hasn’t seen it and she used to watch the movie, but Winn doesn’t want to, because of reasons. ;)
A/N: Okay so recently I have become obsessed, I mean obsessed with Newsies, and Jeremy Jordan and Ben Frankhauser are such amazing actors and singers and WOWZA. Also, I lovelovelove the show Supergirl and Winn is like one of my favorite characters so here is a story kinda combining the both of them. ALSO: this is really shitty bad because I am in a writing slump so sorry I tried and it sucks but here you go. Also it’s kinda short
Warnings: The movie isn’t on Netflix I’m sorry, like 2 minor swear words
“Winn?” Y/N shouted from the doorway of Winn’s small apartment. “Get your ass in here its movie night. We have been doing this every Friday night for three years Winn. You’re not getting out of it this time.” Y/N said as she walked into the kitchen and began making popcorn. “I swear. That boy is impossible.” Y/N mumbled to herself. “Impossible eh?” Winn said from behind her. Y/N turned around and stared at him. After a couple seconds she scoffed and turned back to the microwave. “Popcorn’s almost ready Winn, you go get the blankets and stuff.” Y/N said with a small smile on her face, that she knew Winn couldn’t see. She heard Winn sigh and shuffle away to go get the couch ready in the living room.
Once the popcorn was done, Y/N poured it into a bowl and walked into the living room. “What are we watching tonight?” Winn asked her as she sat down next to him on the couch. “Okay this is going to sound stupid, but theres this movie I used to like as a kid and I heard they made a musical about it like 5 years ago and I haven’t seen it but I heard it’s on Netflix. Can we watch it?” Y/N asked grinning from ear to ear. “Sure thing. I am going to use the bathroom, you get it set up.” Winn said as he got up and walked to his room. Y/N smiled again and typed ‘Newsies’ into the search bar of Netflix before clicking on the title. Winn walked out and looked at the screen. “Oh no.” He said and Y/N’s turned to face him. “What? Do you not like Newsies?” Y/N said and her face fell. Winn looked at her with a sad look on his face. “We can watch something else if you want to.” Y/N said trying to get him to say something. “No, you want to watch this, so we are going to watch it. You just can’t make fun of the people in it.” Winn said as he sat down again, but didn’t meet Y/N’s gaze. “Okay?” Y/N said and started the movie.
About a minute and a half after the actors were shown, Y/N turned to Winn. “The screen is that way Y/N.” Winn teased, but didn’t look at her. Y/N watched for a couple more minutes and when the lead actor started singing, Y/N choked on the popcorn she’d just eaten. Winn paused the movie and looked at her, as she finally stopped coughing. “Holy shit, Winslow. You can sing!” She said and Winn turned away from her. “What’s wrong? Winn, its only three minutes and seventeen seconds into the movie, and you’re already the greatest actor I’ve ever seen.” Y/N reassured him. Winn turned to her. “You’re just saying that.” He said and bowed his head. “I’m not, Winn. I sincerely mean that.” When Winn didn’t say anything, Y/N sighed and pressed play on the movie once again. When Jack and Crutchie sang the ‘Santa Fe’ prologue together, Y/N was humming along.
As ‘Carrying the Banner’ came on, Y/N began to softly sing along with the recording. When the line ‘We’s as free as fishes’ was sang, and Jack did the wiggle, Y/N laughed and turned to Winn, who looked at his hands in his lap. “Winn. Look at me.” Y/N said. “Why are you so upset about this? Why didn’t you tell us you were in a Broadway Show? On Broadway! That’s amazing!” Y/N said. “I didn’t want my friends to think I was stupid, or childish. I didn’t want to be embarrassed.” He took her hand in his. “I didn’t want you to look at me differently.” He looked up at her. “Winn, the only thing that’s different about the way I think about you, is the fact that, now, I am going to make you sing to me. All the time.” Winn chuckled slightly and smiled down at Y/N. “And,” she paused, “I also think you’re way cuter than before. I mean, a guy who’s so sweet, super smart, nerdy in a good way, and has hella talent? I mean, what’s not to like about that?” Y/N smiled at Winn who was blushing furiously. “You thought I was cute? Since when?” Winn asked. “Oh I don’t know since we started doing movie nights?” Y/N asked. Winn looked at her and his eyes widened. “Why didn’t you tell me?” He asked. “I didn’t tell you because I knew you likes Kara, and I didn’t think you liked me. I still don’t know if you like me. And I just admitted to you that I liked you, and now I’m just rambling on an-” Y/N was cut off by Winn, who grabbed her and brought her close to him. He pressed his lips to hers and kissed her for a few moments before pulling away. “Well never mind.” Y/N said smiling. “Shall we get back to the movie?” She asked. “I’ve got a better idea.” Winn said and he stood up offering his hand to the girl. She took it and Winn began swaying and singing ‘Something to Believe In’, and Y/N smiled and leaned her head on his chest. The two danced in Winn’s living room, forgetting the world around them, until the song was over. “You will always be my something to believe in Y/N.” Winn said as Y/N looked up at him and smiled. “You can be cheeky sometimes, you know that right?” Y/N asked playfully. “That I do know.” Winn smiled and pulled her in for another kiss.
“Let’s say, hypothetically, I needed help to dispose of a body?” You say as you walk into your apartment. Winn is sitting at the kitchen island typing something on his laptop, but closes it slowly giving you a look of confusion and possibly concern.
“Hypothetically I’d tell you I have a friend who works in a crematorium…and I’ve binge watched enough how to get away with murder to know what not to do.” He smiles and your anger starts to melt away.
“God you’re the best.” You say as you walk over to him. You wrap your arms around his middle and lean your head against the middle of his back letting out a huff of breath.
Winn turns around slowly, pulling you to his chest and giggling at you. You feel his laugh reverberate through him, his touch causing the tension in your body to release. You feel better. He kisses the tip of your nose and leans his forehead against yours. You scrunch your noes and smile.
“You’re a sap”
“I pride myself on my sweeter side”
“Fucking hell, you dork” You giggle and pull him into a tighter hug.
“You wanna talk about who pissed you off, or would you rather save it for after dinner so we can get killer ideas from the plethora of netflix movies?”
“HAH, i see what you did there. I knew there was a reason you’re my best friend.” You kiss him deeply, biting his lower lip as you come apart. “Let’s get dinner started before I try to start something else.”
“Wouldn’t mind that something else too,” he smirks, winking at you, “what do you have in mind for dinner?”
You leave a peck on his lips and head to the fridge to see what you have. “Let’s seee…we can do lemon garlic chicken, or yeah no, lemon garlic chicken sounds amazing right now, you down?”
He smiles and nods. “How can I help”
You both get to work in the kitchen, everything going smoothly. You and Winn are a great team, working together like extensions of each other, and in no time at all the chicken was ready to go in the oven and the rice was being cooked.
“Let’s go watch murder mysterious on netflix till the chicken is ready.” He says as he cups your face in his hands and pecks your lips with his own.
“Sounds like a Winn. Get it. Cause your name.”
He rolls his eyes and heads to the couch turning on netflix. You laugh and lay your head in his lap, your knees pulled toward your chest. Winn idly plays with your hair while you scroll through the movie lists. You fall asleep and wake up to the smell of the chicken coming out of the oven.
“Hey sleepy head, dinners ready.” He’s smiling at you from the kitchen you smile back and stretch the sleep out of your body. You join him at the table and start to eat.
“You’re wonderful.” You say to him as you both finish up your plates.
“Who’s the sap now, huh?” He laughs as you gently nudge him. You gather the dishes and drop them in the sink. Winn comes up behind you and hugs your waist holding you to his chest. You splash him with water and make a run for it.
“You little shit, (y/n).” He yells playfully at you as you sprint toward the hallway. He fills a plastic cup with water and corners you there. He pulls you in for a kiss and sneakily pours water between the two of you. “Can’t be all wet alone, gorgeous.” You laugh at his ridiculousness and pull him in for a more passionate kiss.
The both of you skillfully pull off your soaking wet clothing and fall into bed together. Laughing and pulling each other closer, nibbling at his lower lip and loving the feeling of his skin on yours.
