The post-game chaos of the locker room was nothing new to you. Being a sideline reporter for professional soccer meant navigating crowded hallways, dodging players, and avoiding stray equipment. Today, however, fate had other plans.
You juggled your recorder and notepad, trying to keep up with your notes from the game while weaving through the throng of media personnel. A loose cable snaked across the floor—a hazard you spotted far too late.
Your foot caught, and the world tilted. You let out a squeak as gravity took over. Bracing for impact with the hard floor, you were instead met with something warm and solid.
A low, amused chuckle rumbled beneath you.
“Well, this is unexpected,” came the smooth, familiar voice of Oliver Aiku.
Your cheeks burned as you realized you were sprawled across his lap, your recorder and notepad scattered on the ground. Oliver, ever the picture of laid-back charm, leaned back on the bench, one arm casually draped over the edge, the other resting on your waist as if to steady you.
“I-I’m so sorry!” you stammered, scrambling to push yourself off him, but his grip on your side gently held you in place.
“Relax,” he drawled, his smirk growing. “I don’t mind being a cushion, especially for someone as cute as you.”
Your face turned impossibly red as you struggled to formulate a coherent response. “I—uh—you—this was an accident!”
“Sure it was,” he teased, his dark eyes glinting with mischief. “But if you wanted to get close to me, you could’ve just asked.”
You gawked at him, utterly mortified. “I didn’t—ugh! This is so embarrassing.”
Finally, he let you go, helping you stand with an infuriatingly easy grace. “Don’t worry,” he said, brushing imaginary dust off his lap. “I’ve had worse things land on me.”
Your hands flew to your face as you tried to hide your mortification. You bent to gather your fallen items, but Oliver beat you to it, scooping them up effortlessly.
“Here,” he said, handing them back to you. His fingers brushed yours briefly, and the playful glint in his eyes softened into something almost... warm?
“Thanks,” you muttered, clutching your things tightly.
“Anytime,” he replied smoothly. Then, leaning down slightly, he added, “But next time, try not to trip unless you’re aiming for me.”
With a wink, he sauntered off, leaving you standing there, flustered and entirely unsure of how to process what just happened.
It wasn’t until much later, replaying the moment in your head, that you realized Oliver had slipped a piece of paper into your notepad.
Scrawled in messy handwriting was a phone number and a single line: *If you’re looking for another soft landing, call me.*
The dense forest echoed with the sharp hum of wings as you stumbled backward, eyes wide with fear. A wild Scyther loomed before you, its twin blades glinting ominously in the dappled sunlight. You had wandered too far from the trail, and now you were cornered with no escape.
“Stay back!” you shouted, clutching a branch in trembling hands. The Scyther hissed, advancing closer, its eyes glinting with predatory intent.
Before you could even think of running, a sharp, echoing *cry* tore through the air. The sound was primal, commanding, and filled with power. From the shadows of the trees emerged a Kabutops, its sturdy frame cutting an imposing figure. The fossil Pokémon’s scythe-like claws gleamed as it stepped between you and the Scyther, shielding you with its broad body.
“Kabutops!” you gasped, your heart pounding with a mix of relief and awe.
The Scyther lunged forward with terrifying speed, but Kabutops was faster. With a precise sweep of its blade-like arms, it parried the Scyther’s attack, sparks flying from the clash of metal. The battle was fierce, with Kabutops delivering a crushing blow that sent the Scyther sprawling into the underbrush. It hissed one last time before retreating into the forest.
Breathing heavily, you collapsed to your knees. Kabutops turned to you, its eyes scanning for injuries.
“You… you saved me,” you whispered, tears welling up as you realized just how close you had come to danger.
Kabutops knelt down, clicking softly in concern. Its sharp features, normally intimidating, seemed gentler now. Without thinking, you surged forward, throwing your arms around its neck.
“I don’t know how to thank you,” you murmured, pressing quick kisses to its rocky carapace. “You’re my hero. My big, strong, amazing hero.”
Kabutops froze for a moment, clearly unused to such affection. Then, with a low, rumbling growl of approval, it gently rested one of its clawed arms around you, pulling you closer in a protective embrace.
“I thought I was a goner,” you said with a shaky laugh, your forehead resting against its chest. “But you were so brave, so strong… I don’t think I’d be here if it weren’t for you.”
Kabutops chittered softly, its eyes reflecting an understanding deeper than words. You could feel the bond solidify between you—a connection forged through bravery, trust, and a battle that would never be forgotten.
From that day forward, you knew you’d never face danger alone again. Kabutops was your protector, your partner, and your hero in every sense of the word.
The humid air of the lagoon clung to your skin as you sat at the edge of the water, your knees drawn up and your arms wrapped around them. The others had returned to camp, leaving you alone to watch the rippling surface, lit faintly by the moonlight. You found the water oddly soothing, its depths mysterious and untamed.
You didn’t notice the way the water stirred just a few feet away, nor the glint of golden eyes watching from beneath the surface. The creature was there, as he had been since you first arrived. But tonight, something was different. Tonight, he was closer, drawn by a fascination he couldn’t fully understand.
You reached down, idly tracing patterns in the water with your fingers. The gentle splashes echoed in the quiet, drawing him nearer. When your hand lingered too long, you felt it—a soft, strange brush against your fingertips.
Startled, you jerked your hand back, your eyes scanning the water. “Hello?” you called, your voice uncertain.
There was no answer, only the soft lapping of the water against the shore. But something moved just beneath the surface—a shadow too large to be a fish. Your heart pounded as you leaned forward, peering into the depths.
And then he emerged.
The creature rose slowly, water cascading off his scaled body, his golden eyes locked onto yours. You froze, torn between awe and fear. His presence was imposing, his form otherworldly, but there was something in his gaze—a curiosity, an intelligence that belied his monstrous appearance.
“You…” you whispered, your voice trembling. “You’re real.”
He tilted his head, his webbed fingers flexing at his sides as he stepped closer, his movements slow and deliberate. He watched you carefully, as if gauging your reaction, and when you didn’t scream or run, he stopped just short of the shore.
You swallowed hard, your pulse racing. “Are you… are you going to hurt me?”
He didn’t answer, of course, but his actions spoke louder than words. Slowly, he raised a hand, his claws gleaming in the moonlight. You tensed, but when his fingers brushed your arm, the touch was surprisingly gentle.
His golden eyes softened, and he let out a low, guttural sound that was almost… soothing. It was as if he was trying to reassure you, to tell you that you were safe.
Your fear began to ebb, replaced by an odd sense of wonder. “You’ve been watching me, haven’t you?”
The creature blinked, a slow, deliberate motion that felt like an answer.
Something inside you stirred, a strange, inexplicable pull toward him. Without thinking, you reached out, your hand trembling as it hovered just above his. He waited, patient and unmoving, until you finally pressed your palm against his webbed hand.
His skin was cool and slick, but his touch was gentle, almost reverent. He let out another low sound, his head dipping slightly as if bowing to you.
A soft smile crossed your lips. “You’re not what I expected,” you murmured, your voice barely audible.
He stepped closer, his massive form towering over you but never threatening. His eyes held yours, and for a moment, the world around you seemed to fade. Slowly, he reached out, his claws lightly brushing your cheek.
The tenderness of the gesture took your breath away. You leaned into his touch, your heart pounding in your chest. “Thank you,” you whispered, though you weren’t sure what you were thanking him for—his gentleness, his curiosity, or the strange connection that now bound you together.
He let out a soft rumble, his hand lingering against your skin before he pulled away. With one last look, he stepped back into the water, his golden eyes never leaving yours as he sank beneath the surface.
You sat there for a long time, staring at the spot where he disappeared, your heart and mind racing. Whatever he was, whatever this strange bond between you meant, you knew one thing for certain—you would be back.
The moon hung heavy in the velvet night sky, its light filtering through the tall, arched windows of the grand estate where you wandered alone. The soft rustle of your gown against the stone floors was the only sound, yet you couldn’t shake the feeling of being watched.
A chill crept down your spine, but it wasn’t fear that made your heart quicken—it was something far more intoxicating. A presence, unseen yet undeniably there, filled the room with an air of dark allure.
“Good evening, my dear,” a voice purred, rich and deep as velvet.
You spun around, and there he stood, draped in shadows, his form regal and imposing. Count Dracula. His dark hair was slicked back, his pale face framed by the high collar of his cape. But it was his eyes that captured you—hypnotic, gleaming with a smoldering intensity that pinned you in place.
“You startled me,” you breathed, your voice barely above a whisper.
His lips curved into a slow, knowing smile as he stepped closer, his movements fluid and graceful. “Forgive me, sweet one. It was not my intention to frighten you.”
You should have run, should have screamed, but something about him drew you in, ensnaring you like a moth to a flame.
“You wander alone on such a night,” he murmured, his voice like a caress. “Do you not know how the darkness hungers for beauty such as yours?”
Heat rushed to your cheeks, and you dropped your gaze, unable to meet his piercing stare. “I… I didn’t think I’d meet anyone.”
He tilted his head, studying you with a mix of fascination and tenderness. “And yet, here we are,” he said softly, reaching out to gently lift your chin with his cold, elegant fingers. “Fate is a curious thing, is it not?”
You were trembling now, but it wasn’t from fear. His touch was electrifying, his words weaving a spell that left you breathless.
“Why do you speak to me this way?” you asked, your voice trembling.
His smile deepened, but there was a softness in his eyes now, a vulnerability that surprised you. “Because you are unlike any other, my dear. Your heart beats with a purity and strength that calls to me, and I find myself unable to resist.”
He took your hand, pressing a cool kiss to the back of it, his lips lingering as if savoring the moment. “Do you not feel it too? This bond between us?”
Your chest tightened, and you realized he was right. There was an undeniable pull, a connection that defied logic.
“I… I don’t understand,” you whispered, but your words lacked conviction.
“Do not be afraid,” he murmured, stepping closer until the scent of him—dark and rich, like aged wine—enveloped you. “I will not harm you, my darling. I wish only to cherish you, to show you the depths of devotion I am capable of.”
His hand slid to your waist, pulling you gently against him. You gasped, your heart pounding as his other hand brushed a stray curl from your face.
“Tell me to stop,” he said, his voice a low growl, his lips so close to yours that you could feel his breath. “And I will.”
But you couldn’t. You didn’t want to.
Instead, you leaned in, your lips brushing his in a kiss that was both tender and electrifying. He groaned softly, his arms tightening around you as if he never wanted to let you go.
When he pulled back, his eyes burned with an intensity that left you breathless. “You are mine now,” he whispered, his voice filled with reverence. “And I am yours, for as long as eternity allows.”
And as the night wrapped around you both, you realized you wouldn’t have it any other way.
The night was still, the moon casting a silver glow over the towering stone gargoyle perched high above the city. You stood below, heart racing as you clutched your coat tightly around you, glancing nervously over your shoulder. The streets were empty, yet you couldn’t shake the feeling of being watched.
It wasn’t the first time you’d felt uneasy on your late-night walks home, but tonight was different. There was a heaviness in the air, a prickling at the back of your neck that refused to leave.
"Don't stop," you whispered to yourself, quickening your pace.
A shadow moved in your peripheral vision, and you froze. Slowly, you turned, scanning the darkness for anything out of place. The street was silent, but you weren’t alone.
From above, the gargoyle watched. His wings were folded against his back, his stone-like form blending seamlessly with the building he perched on. His sharp eyes followed your every move, glowing faintly in the moonlight. He had been watching over you for weeks now, drawn to your kindness and the way you always smiled at his silent form whenever you passed.
When the figure emerged from the shadows behind you, your breath hitched. A man, his face obscured by a hood, stepped closer, his intentions clear in the menacing way he moved.
"Hey, sweetheart," he sneered. "Out all alone?"
You backed away, your heart pounding. "Leave me alone," you managed, though your voice wavered.
The man only grinned, reaching for you. Before he could touch you, a deafening roar split the air.
The hooded man stumbled back, his eyes widening in terror as the gargoyle landed between you, his massive wings spread wide, blocking you from harm. His claws gleamed, and his fangs were bared in a snarl that promised destruction.
The man didn’t stand a chance. He fled, tripping over himself in his haste to escape.
The gargoyle turned, his glowing eyes softening as they met yours. His features, though sharp and fearsome, held a strange beauty.
"You’re safe now," he said, his deep voice rumbling like thunder.
You stared, breathless. "You... you’re real?"
He stepped closer, his movements slow, almost hesitant. "I’ve always been here, watching over you."
Your knees felt weak, but you held your ground. "Why? Why me?"
His expression softened further, and he reached out, his clawed hand gently brushing against your cheek. "Because you see me," he murmured. "Not as a monster, but as something more. Something I didn’t think I could be."
You didn’t pull away, leaning into his touch instead. There was warmth in his gaze, a protectiveness that made you feel safe for the first time that night.
"Thank you," you whispered, your voice trembling.
He leaned closer, his wings folding around the two of you, creating a cocoon of safety and warmth. "Always."
Before you could second-guess yourself, you closed the distance, pressing your lips to his. He stilled, surprised, but quickly melted into the kiss, his claws gently cupping your face as he kissed you back.
In that moment, surrounded by his protective embrace, the fear of the night faded away. All that remained was the steady thrum of his heart and the unspoken promise that you would never be alone again.
You stood on the sidelines of the training field, arms crossed as you watched your father, Ego Jinpachi, bellow orders at the Blue Lock players. Despite the chaos of the scrimmage unfolding before you, you couldn’t help but feel a little out of place. Your father had insisted you accompany him to the field today, claiming it was “educational.”
You weren’t so sure about that.
As you zoned out, a sudden shout pulled you back to reality.
“Watch out!”
Your head whipped up just in time to see a ball flying straight at your face. You froze, too shocked to move, bracing for the inevitable impact.
It never came.
A black-haired blur darted in front of you, and the ball was deflected with a precise motion. Your heart was still racing when you realized who had saved you—Rin Itoshi, Blue Lock’s most intense and enigmatic player.
He turned to you immediately, teal eyes scanning your face with an uncharacteristic softness. “You okay?” he asked, his voice low but steady.
You blinked, still trying to catch your breath. “Y-yeah, I think so. Thanks for that.”
Rin gave a curt nod, his expression hardening as he turned his attention elsewhere. “*Isagi*,” he called, his tone like ice.
You followed his gaze to see Yoichi Isagi jogging over, an apologetic look on his face. “Sorry about that!” Isagi called, rubbing the back of his neck sheepishly. “I didn’t mean for it to go off like that!”
Rin’s glare darkened, and his voice dropped an octave. “Then aim better. If you can’t control your shots, you don’t belong here.”
Isagi flinched but held his ground. “I said I was sorry, Rin. It was an accident.”
“Accidents don’t happen when you’re focused,” Rin snapped, his posture tense as if daring Isagi to argue further.
“Rin, it’s fine,” you interjected, not wanting the situation to escalate.
But Rin didn’t seem to hear you. His sharp teal eyes remained locked on Isagi. “If that ball had hit her—”
“It didn’t,” you interrupted firmly, stepping closer to him. “Thanks to you.”
That seemed to snap him out of it. Rin blinked, his shoulders relaxing as he turned back to you. His glare melted into something softer, almost tentative.
“You’re sure you’re okay?” he asked again, his voice quieter this time.
You nodded, offering him a small smile. “I’m fine. Really. You don’t have to worry.”
Rin hesitated, his gaze lingering on you. “You shouldn’t have to deal with careless idiots,” he muttered, his voice laced with frustration.
You tilted your head, caught off guard by his protectiveness. Most players treated you like a nuisance or, worse, tried to schmooze their way into your father’s good graces. Rin, however, seemed genuinely concerned—though his delivery was a little rough around the edges.
“Thanks,” you said softly, your cheeks warming under his intense gaze.
He nodded once, his lips twitching as if he wanted to say more but couldn’t find the words. Then, with one last sharp glare at Isagi, Rin stepped back toward the field.
As the players resumed their scrimmage, you couldn’t help but steal a glance at Rin. His focus had shifted back to the game, but every so often, you caught him looking your way, his expression unreadable.
Maybe coming to the field today hadn’t been such a bad idea after all.
The next day at practice, the air felt different between you and Barou. The teasing, the tension—it was all still there, but there was something unspoken hanging between you both. You couldn’t deny the way his actions, his words, and even that kiss, had left you a little… flustered.
You stepped onto the field, trying to focus on the drills, but your thoughts kept drifting to the previous day. Barou had managed to throw you off, and now he seemed even more insufferable. He was still acting like his usual cocky self, mocking anyone who made the smallest mistake.
“Is that really how you’re gonna kick the ball, princess?” Barou called out to you as you lined up for a shot on goal, the usual mockery in his voice.
You gritted your teeth but didn’t respond, just focusing on the ball in front of you. You were determined not to let him get to you again—at least, not in the same way.
But just as you went to strike the ball, Barou moved closer, his long stride eating up the distance between you in no time. With one swift motion, he blocked your shot, sending the ball flying off course.
“You’re gonna have to try harder than that,” he said with a smirk, his eyes gleaming with that annoying confidence. He was showing off again, as usual, but there was something in his demeanor that made you feel… unsettled.
You shot him a glare but tried to shake it off. “Why do you always have to be such a show-off?”
Barou leaned in slightly, his voice low, just for you. “Maybe I’m just trying to make sure you stay on your toes, princess.”
You didn’t know what to make of his response. His usual bravado was there, but it seemed like there was something more to it. You didn’t have time to dwell on it because Barou was already moving toward the goal, ready to take a shot.
Your attention wavered for a split second, and before you knew it, Barou had knocked you off balance again. This time, you fell into him—hard. His broad chest was all you could feel as you hit him, and his hands wrapped around your waist to catch you, just like the day before.
“Seriously? You have a death wish or something?” you muttered, your heart racing as you found yourself so close to him again. It was hard to think straight when he was this near.
Barou’s grip on you tightened, and for a moment, neither of you spoke. The playful teasing had faded, replaced by an awkward silence that neither of you wanted to acknowledge.
But then, Barou broke it with a soft chuckle. “Guess I’m just too distracting for you.”
You blinked, trying to push away the flurry of feelings he was stirring in you. “You wish,” you shot back, but there was a slight nervousness to your tone now.
He leaned in a little, his breath tickling your ear as he whispered, “Don’t worry, I’m sure you’ll get used to it.”
The way he said it, with such casual confidence, left your stomach fluttering in ways you weren’t prepared for. The space between you felt charged, and you could feel the heat rising to your cheeks.
Before you could respond, Barou suddenly pulled away, his teasing smirk back in full force. “Get up,” he said, his voice rough but not unkind. “Don’t want you getting distracted again.”
You couldn’t help but glare at him as you stood up, brushing the dirt off your knees. “You’re impossible.”
Barou just chuckled and took a step back, his eyes following you like he was trying to read you. “Maybe. But it’s fun, isn’t it?”
You didn’t know how to answer. Your heart was still beating faster than it should have been, and your mind was racing with thoughts of how strange this whole dynamic had become. The rivalry, the teasing—it was still there, but there was something more under the surface. Something that neither of you was willing to acknowledge fully.
The rest of practice passed in a blur. Barou stayed near you, always watching, always challenging, but the energy had shifted. It wasn’t just about trying to get under your skin anymore. It was something else.
As practice ended and everyone began to gather their things, you were about to leave when Barou called out to you.
“Hey, princess,” he said, his voice much quieter now, almost like he was hesitant.
You turned to face him, arching an eyebrow. “What?”
Barou hesitated for a moment, rubbing the back of his neck. “You did good today,” he said, almost like it pained him to admit it. “I was just messing with you earlier. You’ve got potential.”
For a second, you just stared at him, taken aback by the rare compliment. Then, something inside you softened. Barou was still arrogant, still overconfident, but in that moment, he wasn’t the same guy who had been relentlessly teasing you. He was someone else—someone you were starting to understand.
You smiled, a little more genuine this time. “Thanks, Barou. You’re not so bad yourself.”
His eyes softened slightly, and for a brief second, you saw something that wasn’t cocky, wasn’t arrogant. It was just… real.
Then, before you could say anything more, Barou gave a small shrug, the usual cocky grin creeping back onto his face. “Don’t get used to it, princess. I’m still the best.”
You laughed, shaking your head. “Sure, Barou. Whatever you say.”
As you walked away from him, you couldn’t help but feel the shift between you both. It was subtle, but it was there. The tension had changed—no longer just rivalry, but something deeper, something that might just turn into something more.
Barou wasn’t the easiest person to figure out, but for the first time, you felt like maybe you were getting closer.
You were in the stands, clutching the edge of your seat with anticipation. It wasn’t often that you got to watch training sessions live, and being this close to the action—especially with Kaiser on the field—was enough to make your heart race.
Kaiser had always been a force to be reckoned with. You’d seen his highlights on TV, read about his explosive style, and now, here he was in front of you, moving with such confidence it was almost intimidating. His trademark smirk was in place, the same smirk that made fans swoon and opponents cower.
As the practice match unfolded, you found yourself entranced by his movements. Kaiser was magnetic on the field, every step filled with purpose and flair. He dribbled the ball effortlessly, teasing defenders with his skill, a dangerous and effortless grace. You couldn’t tear your eyes away from him.
The team had been moving the ball back and forth, setting up for a shot on goal. You could sense the buildup, the tension mounting as Kaiser slid into position. His teammates moved back, clearing space around him like the field had parted just for him.
Then, in a flash, Kaiser stopped. The world seemed to slow as he positioned himself perfectly. You could practically feel the energy around him shift. A hush fell over the field, and the only sound was the steady thrum of your heart.
Without warning, Kaiser struck.
The *Kaiser Impact* was a blur of motion, his body coiling with power before unleashing a shot that seemed to defy the laws of physics. The ball flew, a streak of white light, straight toward the goal at an insane speed.
It was as though time itself had frozen as you watched the ball curve through the air with such precision, no one—especially not the goalkeeper—had a chance. The net snapped with a forceful *thwack* as the ball hit it with a power that left the crowd gasping.
You were breathless. It was over before you even had the chance to blink, yet the raw power, the sheer force of it, left you in awe. The shot had been perfect. Beautiful. There was no other word for it.
The crowd erupted into cheers, but all you could do was stare in disbelief, your breath still caught in your throat. Kaiser stood with his usual smug expression, one hand casually resting on his hip as if it had been nothing more than a warm-up.
He caught your gaze from across the field and, to your surprise, gave you a wink. “Impressed?” he called, his voice carrying effortlessly through the air.
Your heart skipped a beat as you nodded dumbly, trying to collect yourself. “That... that was unreal!” you shouted, not caring how loud your voice was. You had to admit, you were completely captivated by the man who could seemingly bend soccer to his will.
Kaiser’s smirk deepened, and he gave a casual, almost teasing wave. “If you think that’s impressive, wait until you see more,” he said, his voice dripping with confidence.
Your heart raced, and you couldn’t wipe the smile off your face. You had seen his *Kaiser Impact* on TV, but seeing it in person was an entirely different experience. You couldn’t help but feel lucky to witness such a spectacular moment.
As Kaiser jogged back into position, his teammates giving him high-fives, you sat back in your seat, your mind racing with the knowledge that you’d just seen something truly special. There was no mistaking it—Kaiser was a true star, and you were in awe of his talent.
The practice session had been intense, but it wasn’t the drills or the scrimmage that had left you seething. It was Barou. The man couldn’t let a single moment pass without throwing some snide remark your way, and you were tired of it. You weren’t just *EGO’s daughter*, you were a player in your own right, and Barou’s constant insults were getting under your skin.
“You’re slower than a sloth,” he taunted after you missed a pass. “What is it, princess? Too delicate for the real game?”
You clenched your fists, keeping your frustration in check. “Keep talking, Barou. You’ll run out of insults before I run out of patience.”
By the end of the session, it was clear neither of you would back down. Your rivalry had simmered throughout the whole practice, and now, as the final whistle blew, the tension was almost suffocating. You turned to leave, intending to cool off, but Barou wasn’t having any of it. His steps were heavy behind you, his voice even heavier.
“Where do you think you’re going?” His tone was sharp, demanding attention.
You stopped, turning to face him, heart pounding with irritation. “Away from you.”
Barou scoffed, taking a step forward, closing the distance between you. “You think I care about your little tantrum? You were awful out there. I’m just telling you the truth.”
You glared up at him, trying to maintain your composure. “And I’m telling you to shut up. I don’t need your opinion.”
He raised an eyebrow, his usual cocky grin appearing on his face. “So, you think you’re too good for me now?”
The audacity of him made your blood boil. “No, I just don’t need your ego in my face.”
Barou’s smirk faded slightly, his eyes narrowing as he crossed his arms over his chest. There was a moment of silence between the two of you, and for the first time, you noticed something different in his gaze. It wasn’t the usual smugness. There was something softer, like he was trying to figure you out.
“You know,” he started, his voice quieter now, “you really get under my skin. Can’t seem to shake you.”
Your heart skipped a beat at his unexpected honesty, but you refused to show vulnerability. “Well, you’re not the only one.”
A small silence hung between you, both of you standing just inches apart. The tension felt more palpable now, and just as you were about to turn to leave, Barou stepped forward again, his presence towering over you.
Before you could react, Barou’s hand reached out, gently cupping your face. You froze, the unexpected tenderness catching you off guard. He leaned in closer, his lips brushing against your ear.
“You think you’ve won this?” His voice was low and smooth. “Because if you’re trying to out-stubborn me, you’ll be here all day.”
You could feel his breath against your skin, the heat radiating from his body, and it made your pulse quicken. But you didn’t back away. Instead, you stood your ground.
Barou pulled back slightly, his eyes searching yours with a mixture of amusement and something else—something deeper. “I never said you weren’t strong. I just think you could stand to be a little less… prickly.”
You could’ve retorted, but the way he was looking at you made your heart race. You tilted your chin up, meeting his gaze head-on, your lips just inches apart. In that moment, everything felt like it slowed down.
Before you could stop yourself, you leaned forward and pressed a soft kiss to the injury on his cheek, where he had taken a hard hit earlier in the match. It was gentle, almost tender, a silent apology for the harsh words and the tension that had built between you.
Barou’s eyes widened for a moment, stunned by the gesture. He didn’t say anything right away. Instead, he stared at you, his usual bravado momentarily replaced by a look of surprise.
“Is that supposed to make up for everything?” he finally asked, his voice quieter than before.
You smirked, pulling back slightly. “Maybe it’s a start.”
A rare smile tugged at the corner of Barou’s lips, and for the first time that day, it felt like the rivalry had shifted. There was a new understanding between you now, one that wasn’t just built on insults and pride.
“You’re a pain in my ass,” he muttered, but his tone was lighter, almost affectionate.
“And you’re insufferable,” you shot back, your lips curving into a grin.
Barou laughed softly, the sound surprisingly warm. “Yeah, well… maybe you’re not as bad as I thought.”
The playful challenge remained between you, but now, there was something else—something more than just pride and rivalry. And it made you wonder if, despite everything, the tension between you could turn into something more.
It was your first day watching Nagi’s team practice, and you were a bundle of nerves. You were Nagi’s younger sister, so you knew how talented the team was, but seeing them in action for the first time had you in awe. And then there was Oliver Aiku.
You had seen him on TV, heard all about his skills, but seeing him up close made everything feel more intense. He moved like a force of nature, with an effortless grace that made the game look easy.
You had just finished running some drills with the other players when you heard someone shout, “Oliver, show us the Snake!”
You froze in place, eyes wide, trying to figure out what exactly they meant. You glanced over at Oliver, who was standing near the center of the field, looking ready to do something amazing.
He caught your eye and grinned, as if he knew exactly what you were thinking. “You want to see something special?” he called out, winking at you.
You swallowed hard, nodding eagerly. “Sure. What is it?”
“You’ll see,” he said, a mischievous gleam in his eyes.
Without any more warning, Oliver took off, his movements fluid and quick. The ball at his feet was like an extension of himself as he sprinted toward the defenders, who immediately tensed, preparing to block him. But then, in the blink of an eye, Oliver’s body shifted.
He made a sharp, sudden move to the left, only to instantly flick the ball to the right. The defenders were left scrambling, trying to predict his next move, but Oliver was already ahead of them. He was like a snake slithering through the grass, twisting and turning with such grace that it almost seemed unreal.
You couldn’t help but watch, your breath catching in your throat. Every movement was calculated, each change of direction so smooth and fast that it looked like a dance. His body leaned one way, and the ball followed, then a flick, a quick step to the side, and he was past them, leaving the defenders lost in his wake.
You hadn’t seen anything like it. It was beautiful. His precision, the way he controlled the ball, the way his body moved so fluidly—it was like watching an artist at work. The ball was always at his feet, never too far away, never out of his control.
Oliver reached the goal, his path so intricate and flawless that it looked effortless. With one final move, he shot the ball into the net. The sound of the ball hitting the back of the goal was like a final note in a symphony, and you were left standing in stunned silence.
The team erupted in cheers, but all you could do was stare, wide-eyed, at Oliver. He jogged back toward you, a smug grin spreading across his face.
“So, what do you think?” he asked, his voice laced with playful confidence.
You blinked, still trying to process what you’d just witnessed. “That was… that was incredible. How did you—”
“I told you it was special,” he said, his grin widening. “It’s my signature move, the Snake. It’s all about fluidity, precision, and control. You just have to trust your instincts.”
You shook your head, still in awe. “It’s beautiful. Like nothing I’ve ever seen before.”
Oliver chuckled, his gaze softening just a little. “You’re a good sport, Y/N. Maybe one day, I’ll show you how to do it.”
“Yeah, right,” you laughed, shaking your head. “I don’t think I could ever pull that off.”
“Never say never,” he said, his eyes twinkling with a playful challenge.
For the rest of practice, all you could think about was Oliver Aiku and the way he moved—like a snake, sleek and unpredictable, but so beautiful in its execution. And somehow, you knew that watching him play was going to be one of your favorite things from now on.
The pitch was buzzing with activity as the players trained under the warm afternoon sun. You were on the field, practicing alongside your brother Nagi and his team, determined to prove you could hold your own.
“Y/N, stop trying so hard,” Nagi mumbled from his usual spot on the sidelines, half-heartedly stretching. “It’s just practice.”
Ignoring him, you focused on dribbling through the cones. Unfortunately, your determination got the best of you, and your kick went wide—straight into the lounging form of Oliver Aiku.
The ball struck him square in the chest, and he staggered backward with an exaggerated grunt, clutching the spot as if he’d been mortally wounded. “Oh no,” he groaned dramatically, dropping to his knees. “She’s taken me out. I don’t think I’ll survive this.”
Your heart leapt into your throat as you sprinted over. “Oh my gosh, Oliver! I’m so sorry!”
He collapsed onto his back, splayed out on the grass with a pained expression. “It’s bad, Y/N. Real bad,” he said, pointing to his chest with a grimace.
“Where does it hurt?” you asked, kneeling beside him, your voice filled with concern.
“Right here,” he murmured, his finger tapping just above his heart. His voice softened, dropping into a teasing tone. “You think you could kiss it better?”
You froze, blinking at him as heat flooded your face. “You’re kidding.”
“Do I look like I’m kidding?” he said, attempting a weak cough for good measure.
Despite yourself, you couldn’t help but laugh, realizing he was milking the situation for all it was worth. “You’re unbelievable.”
“I’ve been called worse,” he quipped, flashing you a lopsided grin. “Come on, Y/N. Help a guy out. I might never recover otherwise.”
Rolling your eyes but unable to resist, you leaned in and pressed a soft kiss to the spot he’d pointed to. His skin was warm beneath your lips, and you could feel the rise and fall of his chest as he sucked in a breath.
“There,” you said, pulling back with a raised eyebrow. “All better?”
Oliver’s grin widened, his voice dripping with mock awe. “Completely healed. You really do have magic lips.”
“Don’t push it,” you shot back, standing quickly to hide the blush spreading across your cheeks.
As you walked away, you heard Oliver call after you, “Hey, if you ever want to be the team medic, I’m all for it!”
Nagi groaned from the sidelines. “Do you *have* to encourage him?”
Despite your embarrassment, you couldn’t help but smile. Oliver’s antics might have been over the top, but he certainly made practice a lot more interesting.
The match was over, and the stadium was alive with excitement. As the team celebrated, you slipped out of the chaos to deliver some papers to the PR department. It was supposed to be a quick errand, but as you rounded the corner, you found yourself face-to-face with Michael Kaiser.
His posture was relaxed, but his eyes—the ever-intense blue eyes—followed your every move with a quiet intensity.
“(Y/N),” he called, voice smooth and confident.
You froze, the breath you hadn’t realized you were holding rushing out. “Kaiser,” you responded, trying to sound casual despite the electric tension in the air.
He took a step closer, the space between you closing with deliberate slowness. His damp hair framed his face perfectly, and despite the casualness of his approach, there was something undeniably commanding about the way he stood.
“You’ve been avoiding me,” he said, his voice low.
“I haven’t,” you replied, but your words felt flimsy. He knew better.
He raised a brow. “You’ve barely looked me in the eye lately.”
You could feel your pulse quicken. “Maybe I’m busy.”
His gaze darkened slightly, an unreadable emotion flickering in his eyes. “I don’t buy it.”
“Why does it matter?” you shot back, trying to keep your composure.
He stepped forward again, much too close for comfort now. “Because it’s driving me crazy, (Y/N).”
You glanced away, unwilling to meet his gaze. “I don’t know what you mean.”
“Don’t play coy with me,” he muttered, his hand brushing against yours, fingers grazing lightly. “I’ve been trying to get through to you, but you keep pulling away. Why?”
You swallowed, fighting the way your heart pounded at the proximity. “I just don’t think it’s a good idea.”
“A good idea?” He laughed softly, though it was laced with frustration. “What’s not a good idea? That I’m interested in you?”
Your breath caught. That was the last thing you’d expected to hear. You looked up at him, meeting his gaze for the first time in weeks. The cool, cocky exterior he usually wore was gone. In its place was something raw, something vulnerable.
“I don’t have time for games,” he continued, his voice quieter now. “And I’m tired of pretending I don’t want you.”
There it was. His confession hung between you, and for a brief moment, you thought you might crumble.
“What do you want from me?” you asked, voice trembling despite your best efforts.
“I want you to stop running,” he said simply. “I want you to let me in. I’m done pretending.”
You were paralyzed by the weight of his words. The man everyone else saw as unapproachable, the cocky striker who thrived in the spotlight, was now standing in front of you, exposing the vulnerability he so carefully concealed.
“I’m not perfect, (Y/N),” he added, taking a step closer. “I know I’m not the easiest person to deal with. But I’m not going to hold back anymore.”
Without thinking, you closed the space between you, your fingers brushing over his shirt. “You never made me feel like I was good enough to let you in,” you whispered.
The air between you crackled with anticipation, and for a moment, you thought you might back away. But before you could, Michael reached for you, pulling you into him with a quiet urgency.
The kiss was soft at first, hesitant, but the moment it deepened, you felt the tension break. Kaiser, in all his intensity and pride, was giving you everything he had, and you found yourself doing the same.
When he finally pulled away, he pressed his forehead to yours, breathing heavily. “I’m not going anywhere, (Y/N). Not this time.”
You nodded, a quiet smile tugging at your lips as your heart raced in your chest. “Neither am I.”
The Bastard München training grounds were eerily quiet as you sat on the bleachers, flipping through your notes. The team’s latest press event had been chaotic—Michael Kaiser, true to form, had dominated every question with a mix of charm and cockiness that left the reporters scrambling for soundbites. You were still trying to recover from the whirlwind of it all.
You had no warning before the man himself sauntered onto the field, his golden hair catching the fading sunlight like a crown.
“Well, if it isn’t my favorite assistant,” he drawled, his German accent laced with amusement.
You rolled your eyes, refusing to look up. “Kaiser, don’t you ever get tired of hearing yourself talk?”
“Never,” he replied smoothly, sliding onto the bench beside you. His proximity made your pulse quicken, though you kept your face neutral.
“Shouldn’t you be training?”
“Shouldn’t you be smiling?” he countered, leaning back on his elbows. “You look stressed, darling. Too much work?”
You finally looked at him, arching a brow. “Maybe I wouldn’t be stressed if certain players didn’t make every press event a circus.”
Kaiser grinned, unrepentant. “Ah, but where’s the fun in that?”
---
The banter was cut short by a sharp whistle from the coach, summoning Kaiser back to the field. He stood, stretching languidly, and you tried not to stare at the way his jersey clung to him.
“I’ll see you after practice,” he said, his tone laced with mischief.
“For what?” you asked suspiciously.
“You’ll see.” And with that, he jogged off, leaving you both curious and slightly annoyed.
---
By the time practice ended, the sun had dipped below the horizon, painting the sky in hues of orange and pink. You were packing up your things when Kaiser appeared again, this time carrying two bottled waters and a grin that screamed trouble.
“Come on,” he said, nodding toward the far end of the field.
“I have work to finish.”
“And I have something to show you. Priorities, darling.”
Against your better judgment, you followed him.
---
He led you to the edge of the training grounds, where a small, tucked-away garden lay hidden from view. Kaiser stopped in front of a low stone wall, turning to face you with a rare softness in his eyes.
“I come here when I need to think,” he admitted, his voice quieter now. “No cameras, no reporters, no pressure. Just... peace.”
You blinked, taken aback by the sincerity in his tone. “And you brought me here because…?”
He smirked, the familiar arrogance slipping back into place. “Because I wanted to share it with you. That’s what kings do, isn’t it? They share their kingdom with someone worthy.”
You rolled your eyes, but your heart betrayed you with a flutter. “You’re insufferable.”
“And yet, you’re still here.”
He stepped closer, his gaze locking onto yours. The playful mask he wore so often was gone, replaced by something far more intense.
“Do you know why I like you?” he asked, his voice barely above a whisper.
“I’m afraid to find out,” you quipped, though your breath hitched as he leaned in.
“I like you because you’re the only one who doesn’t treat me like a king,” he murmured, his hand brushing yours. “You see me, not the title. And that… that’s worth more than any crown.”
Your heart raced as he tilted his head, his lips hovering near yours. For a moment, the world seemed to hold its breath.
Then, with a teasing grin, he pulled back. “But you’ll have to earn the rest, darling.”
You let out a frustrated laugh, shoving his shoulder. “You’re impossible.”
“And you’re perfect,” he said, his smirk softening into something almost tender.
As the stars began to peek through the twilight sky, you found yourself wondering if maybe, just maybe, being part of Michael Kaiser’s world wasn’t such a bad thing after all.
Warnings: making out, slight mentions of masturbation, sex toys
You’re on your new laptop the next day when Agatha walks into the bakery. Your face lights up and she smiles at you the second she’s through the door. Like every time you see her, she manages to take your breath away.
“Hey!” You exclaim, motioning your hands around the laptop. “Thank you so much again. You did not have to do this.”
“I know I didn’t. But I wanted to, hon,” she says. Agatha’s now stopped in front of the counter, looking at you expectantly.
“Do you want the usual?”
She smirks playfully. “Do you remember everyone’s order?”
“Only the ones that tip about 500% and buy me laptops,” you joke, but there’s some truth to it. You’ve had customers that have come in every day for a week and you don’t even realize it’s the same person. She seems satisfied with your quip and nods.
“I’d love the ‘usual,’ thank you.”
This time, though, when she holds out the typical $50, you pull out the change from the register and insist she take it. She raises an eyebrow.
“Please, Agatha, you just bought me a computer,” you say, the beg coming out a little whiny. She teasingly rolls her eyes and takes the money from you. “Thank you. Your coffee will be right up.”
“Actually, can you make it two?”
Your heart skips a beat. Who is joining her? A friend? Her partner?
And then you inwardly scold yourself for caring.
“Oh, yeah, sure. Another espresso?”
She shrugs slyly and skates a finger over the countertop. “I don’t know. What kind of coffee do you want?”
You stare at her blankly, trying to make sense of her question. She must see your puzzled expression because she tosses her head back with a laugh.
“I’m asking you to have coffee with me, doll,” she explains and the lightbulb clicks in your mind.
“Oh–oh my god! I’m sorry.” Of course you’re making a fool out of yourself in front of the most beautiful woman on the planet.
“You don’t have to.” This is the first time you’ve ever seen a flicker of doubt on her face.
“No, no, I want to. Go sit down and I’ll bring the coffee over when I’m ready.”
She sits down at the normal booth and you busy yourself making an espresso and a pumpkin spice latte. This time, you allow yourself to glance at Agatha and you feel something in your stomach when you notice that she’s already looking at you, a fond smile on her lips. There’s a tug in your gut and you smile back. You’re not sure why the older woman is drawn to you this much, but you are not complaining.
There’s something about her too. Something that pulls you in and doesn’t want to let you go.
You successfully make the coffee this time without any broken laptops and you bring them over to the table, sitting across from her before she has to ask. She looks pleased and blows on her coffee before taking a sip.
“What’s your drink of choice?” She asks, nodding at your cup.
“Oh, just a pumpkin spice latte,” you say dismissively. “I’m a big pumpkin fan.” She nods like it’s the most interesting thing she’s ever heard. “And, thank you again. For the laptop. You really didn’t have to do that. Is there anything I can do to repay you?” You don’t mean for it to sound as dirty as it does and she smirks like she hears it too.
“There is one thing you can do.” You urge her earnestly with your eyes. “Go ice skating with me tonight?” It’s getting colder in Westview and the winter festivities are being broken out, including the Winter Wonderland in the square. Complete with an ice skating rink, hot chocolate stands, a snow pit, a hill for the kids to sled down, and even more, it was a town favorite.
You frown but your heart skips a beat at the thought of her wanting to hang with you. As a date? “How is that repaying you?”
She flicks her hand. “The money isn’t a big deal. I just want to get to know you better. Unless you’re busy.”
“No, I have literally nothing to do later,” you say, shaking your head. She looks relieved. “Can I at least pay for the tickets?”
“Honey,” she scoffs playfully. “I asked, so I’m paying. If you want to pay, you’ll just have to ask me to do something another time.”
“This sounds an awful lot like a date,” you say before you can stop yourself. The corners of her mouth quirk up and she raises an eyebrow.
“Do you want it to be?”
“Yeah,” you answer almost immediately, your voice hoarse at the thought. A date. With a rich, hot, older woman. She smiles genuinely. “What time? Oh, I hope all my winter clothes aren’t at home.” You haven’t been back in awhile to your parents’ house and you only brought the necessities to make it until you go back. You’re not sure how many cute options you’ll have.
“I’ll pick you up around five-thirty? And do you have warm clothes?” She gives you a once-over. You’re in jeans and your uniform top. In the back, you have the heavy coat you wear when you have to go outside, and back at your dorm, you have sweatpants. Not exactly up to par with this gorgeous woman.
You smile and nod and try to not appear too nervous. What to wear is always a point of stress for you. She must sense this because she reaches over to pat your hand reassuringly and then pulls out her wallet from her pocket.
Before you can protest, she slaps a credit card down on the table. Your jaw drops and you look back and forth between it and Agatha.
“Go to the mall and get whatever you want,” she tells you, and there is not even a trace of a joke in her tone.
“How do you know I won’t just buy a car or something crazy?”
She laughs. “I trust you. And I don’t think you would. You seem like a good girl.” She puts a lot of emphasis on those words and it makes you feel hot. You’re sure your cheeks have turned red. “Text me your address before tonight, yeah?”
You nod because you don’t trust yourself to talk at this point. What kind of woman just casually hands over her credit card to someone she barely knows?
“Um, thank you,” is all you can muster the strength to say. She gives you one last smile before getting up from the table.
“I’ll see you tonight, doll.”
The moment you’re done with your shift, you head to the mall. You’re not exactly sure what will suffice for the date, but you hope you’ll know it when you see it.
You eventually find some black pants that make your ass look great and a cute purple sweater with a blue vest. It’s a little pricey though. You know Agatha said to get whatever you wanted, but you still feel a little guilty, especially after she’s thrown so much other money at you.
So you text her. Hey Agatha! At the mall right now. Just want to check if there was a limit to how much I could spend? I found some stuff but it’s almost $200. If that’s too much, no worries at all! You send her your address as well before you can forget.
She immediately replies. Get the stuff and anything else you want. I can’t wait to see what you’ve picked out ;) see you later.
The winky face causes heat to pump through your veins and you bite your lip. You clear your throat and head to the check-out, heart beating fast when you press Agatha’s credit card to the reader. It goes through and you breathe a sigh of relief.
You still can’t believe she just handed it over so willingly.
Is she your sugar mommy now?
The question weighs on your mind until she texts you that she’s outside your building later that afternoon. You give yourself a once-over and run downstairs to her car. The new clothes are comfy and warm and she looks at you approvingly when you slide into the passenger seat.
“Good choice,” she says.
“Thank you again,” you reply, a little breathless from the cold and your speed. You take out her card from your wallet and hand it to her. “I can’t believe you just gave your card to some random stranger like that.”
She laughs along with you. “I know you wouldn’t do anything. You seem too desperate to please.” Your face heats and you’re not really sure what to say. She isn’t wrong. There’s something about Agatha that makes you want to do whatever she says. “How was the rest of work?”
“Oh, good.” You wave a hand dismissively. “It was a pretty slow day today. Did you have work?”
She launches into telling you about her newest court case and you find yourself absolutely fascinated to the point of not even realizing that you’ve arrived. Everything Agatha says has you absolutely enthralled and by the faint smirk on her face, she knows it too.
She leads you over to the ticket stand, her hand on your lower back, and confidently buys two.
“Thank you,” you say again, a little flustered by how she hasn’t let you pay for anything. You’ll be damned if you leave without buying her a drink or something.
“Of course, doll. Do you want to skate first?” You nod eagerly, causing her to chuckle, and you both go to pick out skates. She has to help you lace them up after you fumble with them for a while since your hands have become so cold.
“Full disclosure, I’m not very good at skating,” you warn her when she’s holding onto your arm at the gate.
“I can help you, sweetheart,” she says and your heart feels so full.
She gets onto the ice first and lets go of the railing so she can grab your hands and assist you in stepping onto the rink. Your eyes widen when you almost fall after moving your foot forward and it shoots back, but Agatha catches you in her strong arms.
“Oh my god,” you exclaim as she stands you back up, never letting go of her tight grip on you.
“It takes a bit to figure out. How many times have you ice skated?”
“None,” you say, tongue poking through your lips as you look down at your feet and focus on sliding them forward. She glides backwards with you effortlessly. When you finally look up at her, she’s staring at you with something written on her face you can’t quite read. “What?”
“You could’ve told me that you hadn’t, I would’ve taken you to dinner or something else,” she says.
“No, no, it’s totally fine. I would’ve done whatever you wanted to do,” you reply half-mindedly. You’re more focused on skating around the corner. Once you do so successfully, her hands move from your wrists to only one hand holding your hip.
But her touch makes you jump, fire igniting in your stomach, and you slip and fall on the ice.
You groan in pain and Agatha stifles a laugh before squatting down to check on you. The cold has seeped into your wet pants and the humiliation burns your cheeks.
“You okay, doll?”
You nod your head defeatedly. “Yeah, just a little wet.” The moment you say it, you can see her eyes darken just the slightest. Your breath catches when you realize the innuendo and there’s a tense silence with the two of you just staring at each other while others skate around you.
“Well, let’s get you up. Want to keep trying?” Agatha asks finally. She gets back on her feet as gracefully as ever.
“As long as you don’t let me fall again,” you joke and take her outstretched hands.
“I didn’t let you fall, you did that all on your own,” she says playfully.
She carefully lifts you up and you grab onto her biceps when you’re fully standing so you don’t crash back down. Her hands grab your waist again to hold you steady and when you look at her face, she’s staring at your lips.
“Agatha,” you say, but you’re not sure what else to add because now you’re staring at her lips too. She leans in an imperceptible amount and your mouth parts involuntarily, ready for a kiss.
“Look out!” Someone shouts and the next thing you know, a three foot tall blur runs straight into you, knocking you, Agatha, and the random person down.
“Sorry!” The kid exclaims and jumps up to skate away, leaving you and Agatha wincing on the ice.
“Why don’t we go find something else to do?” She asks and you’ve never been more happy to agree.
Agatha helps you up once again and this time, interlocks her fingers with yours and slowly skates with you to the exit.
Once you’ve gotten your shoes back on, Agatha buys the two of you cups of hot chocolate and a pretzel to split and leads you over to a bench so you can sit.
“Thank you for this,” you say, shoving a piece of the pretzel into your mouth.
“My pleasure, sweetheart.”
The pet name does things to you that you can’t say and you find yourself wishing that the almost-kiss on the ice actually happened. You feel so connected and attracted to Agatha, even though you’re not sure why.
“Why do you keep tipping me so much and buying me all these nice things?” You’re finally brave enough to voice the question that’s been on your mind since the first day she came into the bakery.
She smiles and reaches over to squeeze your hand. “You deserve it. And I like spoiling you. You get this cute little look in your eye.” You blush instantly and she laughs. “Like that.”
“Well, can I take you out sometime soon? Maybe for dinner or a movie or something?”
“I’d like that. I’m free Tuesday or Thursday night this week.”
“I’ll see you Tuesday then,” you say, happy that she’s finally going to let you treat her to something. “Unless I see you at the bakery first. It seems to have become an integral part of your morning.” You’re teasing but part of you wants her to elaborate on what she’s doing.
“What can I say? The cinnamon crumb cake and the espresso are to die for,” she says with a wink. You laugh despite yourself.
Comfortable silence falls over the two of you as you sip on your drinks and eat the pretzel.
“Is there anything else you want to do?” She asks.
“Can we go on the ferris wheel?”
“Of course, dear.” She stands up and offers you her hand and you obviously take it.
The line for the ride isn’t long at all so you basically walk right into a passenger car. Agatha sits next to you instead of across from you so she can wrap an arm around your shoulders. The wheel starts turning and something on the ceiling catches your eye.
“Is that mistletoe?” You ask, pointing up at it and then looking at Agatha, who is also peering up at it, corners of her mouth quirking up.
“Looks like it,” she answers thoughtfully and then glances at you playfully. “Shall we?”
You don’t even answer, just clasp her cheek with your hand and pull her in.
It’s a slow kiss at first, just a press of your mouth against hers, but then she opens her lips and slides her tongue into your mouth. You moan into her mouth and try to pull her even closer to you so you can feel more of her. She sucks on your tongue and your teeth make a clicking noise when they clash against each other.
When you have to pull back for air, she kisses down your jaw and then gently bites on your neck. You gasp and your hips jump against nothing.
“Agatha,” you breathe and you can feel her smirking as she nibbles on your earlobe. A fire stokes to life in your stomach and your body feels like a lifewire. One of her hands dips under your vest so she can cup your breast through your sweater. You whimper and she chuckles lowly. “Please.”
“Is this okay?” She asks and you nod so hard your head hurts. She smirks and her hand slides down and under your sweater.
The coldness of her fingers against your warm stomach makes you gasp but you like it and you pull her back in for a kiss. Her hand keeps moving up under your shirt and she’s about to reach your bra—
—and the Ferris wheel stops. You let out a sigh of disappointment and Agatha laughs.
The door to your car opens and the two of you step out. You wonder if your face is as red as it seems and you hope that no one accidentally saw you two making out.
“So what now?” She asks once you’re back in the middle of the fair. But there’s only one thing on your mind right now.
You don’t care that you’re surrounded by people right now; you stand up on your tiptoes and give her a searing kiss which she returns immediately. Your hands wrap around her neck and hers find their place on your waist. You end the kiss by tugging on her bottom lip and when you pull back, her blue eyes are dark and hooded.
“Can we do more of that?” You breathe and she chuckles. You’ve never wanted anyone so badly in your life and you think if you don’t have her hands on you in the next ten minutes you might die.
“Anything you want,” she whispers and presses one last chaste kiss to your lips. “Does this mean you want to leave?”
“Please,” you beg and she smirks at how visibly desperate you are. You’ve become so wet and needy since she put her hand on your waist on the ice. You practically drag her back to the car and when she pulls back in front of your dorm, you look at her with begging eyes. “Come in?”
The moment you say it, you realize how ridiculous it sounds. Bringing a hot, rich, older woman up to your living space that’s probably the size of her closet so she can fuck you in your twin sized bed? Plus it was your first date and you’ve known her for less than a week.
She’s clearly thinking the same thing because she smiles softly and says, “Maybe on Tuesday, doll.”
And yet, you whine. “Why can’t we just go back to your place right now? Please, I’m so-” You cut yourself off before you can tell her just how much you really need her.
Her smile turns into a knowing smirk. “Why don’t you go upstairs and take care of that yourself then?” You gape and a flush climbs up your neck and to your face, but she leans in and keeps going. “Use your hand, or a toy, to think about me. Just to tide you over for a bit.”
“I don’t have a toy,” is all you can think to say with your brain short-circuiting. That shouldn’t have been the part to focus on, but Agatha pulls back with wide eyes.
“You don’t?”
And then the image of Agatha using a toy on herself inserts itself in your brain and you have to cross a leg over the other to get some sense of relief. “No,” you squeak out.
The glint in her eyes is positively evil. “Have a good night, doll.” She gives you one last kiss and then unlocks the car door. You give her a playful glare and then go upstairs.
After you’ve showered and put on pajamas, you slide your hand down your sweatpants and touch yourself.
It takes all of three minutes before you cum all over your hand, just replaying the kiss with Agatha in your mind.
You fall asleep quickly after that and in the morning, you’re surprised to see a notification saying that you have a package in the delivery room. You throw on a sweatshirt and head down and it’s a medium sized brown box with your name and an A. Harkness as the mailer.
Frowning, you take it back to your room and cut it open. Moving the flaps aside, you peer in the box and gasp.
There’s at least four sex toys. A vibrator, a dildo, a different type of toy, and then a small box. You pick up the box and immediately drop it.
It’s a remote controlled, long-distance vibrator.
Your breathing has quickened and you feel your underwear growing wet yet again because of Agatha.
And then you see a piece of paper. Hands shaking, you pull it out and open it.
Hope you enjoy ;) Maybe you can wear the vibrator on Tuesday. See you soon.
