Love me more
Pairings: Sylus x reader
"Tell me... tell me that you love me more than them"- his voice trembled as he held your hands tightly as if afraid that you might disappear, peering into your eyes. His look was tense, full of expectation and anxiety. You felt his heart beating, his every breath echo in you.
Sylus knew that he was not the only one in your heart, and this knowledge did not give him peace.
He knew you spend more time with Rafayel. This fact burned him from the inside, because he understood that you love him for the mercy and naivety that made him so special for you. He was tormented by the realization that you find solace in Xavier's arms. Thoughts about how Xavier embraces you, how you seek comfort in his hands, did not give him peace. But most of all he was tormented by the knowledge that you love Zayne.
He knew that Zayne had a special place in your heart. You loved Zayne not just for his qualities, you trusted him.
They give you their love through gifts, walks under the moon, romantic dinners and confessions. Their feelings were sincere and strong, and you appreciate every moment spent with them. They created for you a world full of beauty and happiness, a world in which you felt loved and desired.
But he believed that his love surpassed all this. He didn't need loud gestures and magnificent expressions of feelings. His love was quiet but deep, it permeated every cell of his creature. He was ready to endure pain and suffering for you, he was ready to sacrifice his happiness for your well-being. He wants to know that you see his efforts, that you notice his presence. He will become anyone for you.
Do you like a submissive partner? He's ready to be like that for you. He will kneel in front of you with a collar around his neck. He will beg you if you order him to do it. His hands will reach out to you, but he won't touch you if you don't allow it.
"Tell me, - his voice was quiet, but persistent, - tell me that I'm more for you than they are. That you feel for me what you don't feel for them. That I'm really important to you. That I belong to youâŚ.Please."
Heâs waiting, his eyes did not break away from yours, hope and fear were read in them. Sylus wants to hear that every time he touches you, you feel the same as him - deep affection and desire to be close no matter what. He wants your heart to burn with the same passion, that your soul would strive for him as much as his soul wants you. He wants you to know that he would always be there to support you, hug you and say that everything would be fine. He wants you to feel this devotion, so that you would know that nothing is more important to him and dearer than you.
You've seen him struggling with his doubts, trying to find answers in your eyes. His soul was naked in front of you, and he was waiting for your words that could dispel his fears.
Masterlist
You can hear the lyrics

Welp, there goes my dream of Jeff Skinner having his Chappell Roan phase this summer and choosing HOT TO GO as his goal song đ˘
On a serious note tho, I will still continue to support him no matter which team he signs with. This man deserves his Playoffs experience. Itâs so bittersweet bc the reason I became a Sabres fan in the first place is because of him đ (will still cheer them on tho)



KYLE OKPOSO IS A STANLEY CUP CHAMPION
STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONSHIP | GAME 7 | EDM vs. FLA | 06.24.24

what it's like supporting the panthers mainly so kyle okposo can get the cup
no no see, domesticity IS hot. how intimate it is to make food with someone, to share a bed, to brush your teeth at the same sink, to shower and use the same towels and the same laundry soap, to grocery shop and hold hands through the aisles, to be cornered in the kitchen to make out while a pot of pasta boils over on the stove. to fall asleep and hear them snoring softly and laugh at the little trail of drool out of the corner of their mouth. to spend money together and share chores and pick on each other for your weird habits. it's not always perfect and beautiful, but it's comfortable and familiar and I just think it's neat.


close enough, welcome back leon kennedy
Dating Joost Klein would include...

Late night deep conversations, isn't that when we have the best conversations? I can see him opening up to you fully, sharing a cigarette on the balcony while stargazing.
Matching tattoo's, your favorite PokĂŠmon or perhaps each other's birth coordinates.
Kisses. So, so, so, so many kisses. And hugs!
Small acts of service, him holding the door for you, making him his favorite drink, watching his favorite movies, walking the dogs together in the rain.
Being the biggest fangirl backstage.
If you can't come on his tours, he'd bring you the most random gifts ever.
If he's away for concerts or tours: falling asleep together on facetime when possible.
Spamming him with funny Instagram reels/Tik Tok video's.
Sending him poetry that remind you of him.
Spending time alone together, he could draw on his ipad or write, while you'd do a crafts of your liking. Supporting each other's creativity.
Being his peace in this world full of madness.
Softly stroking his hair if he's crying, holding him.
"I'm here baby."
Stealing his hoodies and jackets.
unfortunately the sabres have bewitched me mind body and soul with their young and hip team who says things like "this is slay" and create their own version of between two ferns
Random thought, but the Hischier siblingsâ eyebrow game is STRONG. I think Nico has the fullest and darkest out of the three. They probably got them from their dad if you compare the three of them to him, lolol
Edit: Okay, I know Iâm late to the Nicoâs eyebrows party but hey, at least Iâm the first person to acknowledge his whole family I guess lolol đ
gamer guy | mattias samuelsson

warnings: dirty talk, dry humping, coming in pants, begging, a little degradation, mattiasâ very deep voice practically causing readerâs orgasm pairing: mattias samuelsson x reader request: âmattias samuelssonâs thighs demand to be riddenâŚ. and heâd be hella degrading about itâŚ.. donât you thinkâŚ..â yes, i do, but this is reader grinding against his lap wc: 984

âYeah, baby? Is that right?â Mattiasâs voice washed over your body like warm honey. His voice was teasing, his fingers tapping at your sides. âFeels so good you just canât keep quiet, huh?â
Until about five minutes ago, he was playing his stupid video game, the one that made him bite his tongue in concentration. You hadnât been too upset by his lack of attention on you, at first, but when his shorts started riding up and revealed the hemline of his briefs, you felt like you would start salivating any second lest your boyfriend get his big hands on you.
âTi,â You whined, your hands gripping his t-shirt as you continued to grind down on his lap.Â
You could feel his cock through his clothes, practically bursting through the fabric with how hard he was, but he was a tease. He acted unaffected, shushing you and brushing your hair out of your face.
âPathetic, arenât you? Wiggling on top of me, distracting me from my game, just because you need a release? You couldâve asked me, baby. I wouldâve helped you out.â Mattias smiled at you, goofy and wide. He wasnât lifting a finger from your waist now, staying still underneath you.
âNeed it, Mattias. Give me something,â You begged.
Mattias shook his head. âNo. You started this, you have to finish it.âÂ
You let out a groan thatâs more akin to a sob as you continue to rub your core against his positively straining cock. âCouldnât help it,â You said to him, pouting in his face.
All the pout did was make Mattias smile wider.Â
âJust⌠seeing you,â You pant out, âLike that. Made me think of all the times you made me feel so good, Ti.â
His smile started to fade and his fingers squeezed your sides.
âYour fingersâ ohâ they moved so fast on the controller, baby, and it made me think of all the times theyâve been inside meââ
Mattiasâs eyes started to rake over your figure, fixating on your chest.
âAnd fuck, Ti, your tongueâ I couldnât stop thinking about how it moves against my clit. God, Ti, you always make me come so hard I see stars.â You ground down against him more frantically, feeling his cock twitch as you continued to speak.
He was silent, but his eyes stayed on your chest, watching your breasts bounce with each grind. His right hand drifted up to thumb over the spot where your nipple was pressing against your shirt, creating a pronounced bump under the soft cotton of the tee.Â
âMattias,â You moaned, feeling the fabric of his member catch against your entrance in a long, drawn out drag. âYour cock, baby, your cock.â
Your breaths came out like a chant, like a cheer, and it was not lost on Mattias. For someone who seemed so aloof, so sarcastic, so âI donât care what you think of me as long as I can make you laugh,â he was struck with the amount of love that dripped from your voice, even when he wasnât giving you anything.
You fucked down on his cock, feeling it press against you but never enter you, and his eyes grew lidded as you let out your little whines and moans. His hands splayed out over your ass, covering the cheeks completely with how big they were, and his eyes drifted up from your chest to your lips.
âThink you can bait me into fucking into you?â Mattias asked, sounding unimpressed with your words. âBaby, you want me so bad, but you canât make me do anything about it.â
You rolled your eyes, let down, but your mouth dropped open with a satisfying roll of your hips. Your clit caught against the fabric of his shorts, bunched up around his tip. You aimed to roll your hips in the same way, in the same spot, hoping the friction would bring you to the edge.
Mattiasâs hands found your hips, grasping your hipbones and guiding you along his lap, even though he told you he wouldnât help you get off. His controller lay long forgotten on his thigh, rocking precariously with each move of your hips.Â
Your pussy was dripping, soaking through your panties and shorts enough that the fabric was caught between your lips. If Mattias looked down to where you connected, heâd see a cameltoe and a wet spot along his shorts that showed just how badly you needed him, how badly you wanted him, and how badly you loved him.
âCome,â Mattias commanded, his voice low and soothing. âI know you can, baby, come.â
And, honestly, his words might have been the reason you tensed against his lap and felt yourself clench around nothing as the warmth spread to your fingertips. It was likely, even, that his deep voice and sureness, pure need, caused you to come just from a word.Â
It was then, during the aftershocks, that Mattias fucked up against you, prolonging the release for which you had worked and pleaded. His length dragged against you, causing you to flinch and cry out with each thrust. He fucked against you until his own release, his lips capturing yours as you felt the wet spot of his pants grow damper with his own come.Â
âFuck,â Mattias said, pressing hard kiss after hard kiss against your mouth. âSo good, arenât you? Fucking yourself âtil you come, letting me fuck up against you âtil I come. My girl, so pretty, so good.â
The compliments falling from his lips made you whine, clenching against him and grinding down just enough to feel him growing softer after his release.
âTi,â You whimpered. âNeed you again.â
Mattiasâs forehead made contact with yours and he chuckled, staring into your eyes with something that looked like disbelief. You nodded. This night wouldnât end until you were both naked and satiatedâ and round two needed to start right now.

big thighs, new jersey ⢠mattias samuelsson (18+)

pairing: mattias samuelsson x fem!reader (childhood friends to lovers)
warnings: Â pining. so much pining. fem language (reader is referred to as a woman). cursing. alcohol consumption. reader and mattias are drunk but coherent. super vague religious imagery. oral (f receiving), unprotected p in v, fingering, petnames, praise, enthusiastic consent, cocky mattias but literally who is shocked, begging, so many feelings involved. ever so slight angst.
summary: y/n has been in love with mattias since they first met when they were 8, and they had matching bowl cuts. being his best friend is the hardest job sheâs ever been tasked with. 16 years of pure desperation all boils down to one night on the beach.Â
word count: 5.2k ... jesus christ
author's note: welcome to what is essentially a year's worth of brainrot, compiled into one fic. i started this concept a year ago with some friends, and now thanks to @pldstattoos, @flashyfucker, and @puck-luck, it is now a tangible piece of literature. based ever so loosely on the song âbig thighs, njâ by lowcut connie, amongst other tunes that i will share later. this man just SCREAMS childhood friends to lovers so i had to give my very best to my favorite boy ever.Â

itâs late again.
heâs got one arm draped over your shoulders, gesturing wildly to the rest of the group with his can of seltzer, not spilling a single drop. the old, paint-stained sheet you two share has gone cold, matching the feeling of the sand beneath it.
if he remembered you brought that old âseaside heightsâ sweatshirt you bought back in the heyday of the jersey shore era with you to the beach when you told him you were cold, eyes wide and hopeful, he kept it to himself.
another day spent at the beach with your friends, skitting along the sand, never too far apart from each other. you could feel him on your skin like the humidity.Â
itâs been like this since your parents agreed, reluctantly, that you were too old for day camps and you barely got to see mattias anymore during the school year. your mom softened when you mentioned him like she always did. since then, youâd bike to his house in the morning to find him strapping on his rollerblades. youâd make him race you for a few blocks since he insisted on cross-training in the offseason or whatever it was he said to make himself feel like he wasnât totally slacking off. then you both slowed down, falling into a rhythm about as familiar as your own heartbeat. youâd meet up with friends, skipping through town and letting the breeze off the ocean push you one way or another. and more often than not, it ended around a fire pit â and as you got older â with cans in hands, recounting the day and making half-hearted plans for the next one.
except, now youâre older. old enough that you just finished your first ever real internship, one that led you up to the summer, now leaving you with the stress of finding a real job. but that doesnât matter right now. what matters right now is the fact that youâre back with your friends, on the beach, recalling those stories from long ago, like how you broke your arm when you were 10 because you insisted to mattias and his older brother, luke, that you could do a cartwheel on the trampoline in your roller skates. it had been his older sister, allie, that called the ambulance, naturally.Â
youâre acutely aware that there are a finite number of these days and nights left. mattias is a big-time hockey player now (well, not actually, but to you, he might as well be wayne gretzky), and just like you, he canât spend his whole life on the beach. but you really wish he could, with you, forever. knowing you have to share him with the world, thatâs the part that eats at you.Â
youâre also acutely aware of his position on you, his hand skirting just barely along the top of your bikini top, just barely out of reach from where you really wish heâd lay his hands. you wonder if he can feel the goosebumps on your skin from the calm jersey winds.Â
mattiasâ voice vibrates through your body, its deep, steady buzz keeping you centered. itâs not until you hear angelo let out an almost inhumane noise that triggers the group into a state of hysteria, that you feel a cold splash on your shoulder and the sound of mattias stifling a choked laugh, snapping you out of your thoughts. you glance up at mattias, whose guilt slowly etches onto his face as he drunkenly realizes what heâs done. he didnât even spill that much, but he knows thereâs a good chance youâll overdramatize for the sake of poking fun at him.
âmattias, how could you!â you widen your eyes again and fling your wrist against your forehead, leaning your back into him as though youâre fainting. you stick to your performance as much as you can, trying to ignore how his muscular frame presses against you, his arms catching you with your quick movements. heâs leaning down over you, rolling his eyes and laughing at you. you smell the scent of mango and alcohol on his breath, his signature summer scent at this point. you could kiss him right now if you wanted; he was close enough to your face.Â
you want to chastise him for not being more careful, for not paying attention to his own body. but you know it weighs on him more than anyone else. there are boundaries you know not to cross.Â
he lifts up his shirt, just enough to use it as a makeshift towel for the drink he spilled on you. just enough to see his soft, tan skin and the ripple of his muscles that he, for some reason, chooses to hide more often than not.Â
âsorry, baby. lemme help you,â he half-whispers, because heâs mattias, a man who can never be truly silent. baby. a nickname he started using on you when you were 15, starting to drink when you went to the cool parentsâ house, a nickname that he only really uses on you when youâve both been under some sort of influence. he knows the effect that it has on you, and you hate that you know that he seems to do it on purpose. heâs so unfair sometimes.Â
he uses his free arm to keep you steady, wrapping his arm around your stomach. you can feel his heartbeat against your back, but choose not to focus on it too much. youâre practically in his lap now, being cradled in his arms as you feel the soft material of his shirt swipe down your arm, and back over your shoulder, and just along that same forbidden spot along the hem of your bikini top. itâs killing you at this point.Â
âall good?â he asks, causing you to be forced to look him in the eyes again.Â
âall good,â you squeak out, your voice barely a whisper, leaning back into him and taking your spot back in his arms.
âsorry again, dude,â he slurs, smoothing down the messy hair on top of your head, and it reminds you that you, too, have plenty of alcohol in your body, and itâs just now starting to catch up. itâs that same consumption of alcohol that would account for why no one has paid attention to either of you for the past 5 minutes, everyone caught up in telling their own drunken tales from the past.Â
you go to tell him that you swear itâs okay, when josh loudly âand suddenlyâ announces his departure from the group, saying something about his early morning tee time with his dad the next day. it was from there that lauren, bri, and anna got up and began making their way back to the house together, arm in arm, giggling about an inside joke that you had been too distracted to participate in. julian and angelo linger for a few minutes longer, arguing with each other and mattias about stuff that doesnât matter. your eyes feel heavier still. the pair of boys eventually peel off, their yawns becoming hard to ignore. they bid their goodbyes to you and your human pillow, disappearing up the dune and into the house.Â
mattias nudges you, and you stir.Â
âdo you want to head in? itâs, like, 3:45 am,â mattias asks, showing you the time on his phone. his phone background â a photo of the group, his arms, wrapped around your chest, everyone smiling like it was picture day â lights up your face, the sudden brightness causing you to squint. sure enough, the clock reads 3:42 am. you let out a sigh, twisting in his arms so youâre laying with your back to the sheet, between his thighs. he grabs your head on both sides, shaking it slightly, his fingers loosely carding through your hair. you donât say anything, just staring up at him like heâs a god of some sort.Â
âwhatâs up? talk to me. did i do something?â he looks down at you, a sympathetic look in his eyes mixed with that damn smirk of his.Â
âtias,â is all you can manage to get out, your voice barely a whisper.Â
âyeah?â his voice suddenly going quieter than normal. this is rare, and it worries you.Â
âwould you be mad at me if i asked you to kiss me?â you ask, suddenly feeling bold and vulnerable with your loneliness in the moonlight.Â
âof course i wouldnât; am i ever mad when you ask?â he replies, cocking an eyebrow at you. and he was right. you two had made out countless times before, always in private, never escalating past light groping, always leaving you both high and dry, but too scared to ask for more. even at your big ages, you were still stuck in this routine, always running back to each other when the girl mattias tried to fly out bailed on him or the guy you met at the bar ended up giving you a weird vibe. it was normal in some way. like, of course best friends kiss each other. why wouldnât they?
âyou donât get it, i donât think,â you dare, the alcohol in your system giving you a strange boost of confidence.
his hands loosen around your head, ever so slowly moving down your neck, over your shoulders, and to that damned spot on your chest. your body reacts to his touch, suddenly hyper-aware of just how cold you are on the beach in nothing but a bathing suit.Â
âno, i think i do. let me know if iâm reading this wrong, but i think i get it,â he responds.
you adjust yourself between his legs, your head now laying on his upper thigh. you feel the strong muscles tighten underneath you, causing a chill to run down your spine. looking up at him, your eyes soften, and he leans down again, feeling his breath on your face. the scent of mango white claw still lingers, only slightly less prominent now. you squirm slightly at the feeling of him so close.Â
âtell me what you want,â he speaks, low and gravelly. the feeling of it in your eardrums sends a pang straight to your core.Â
âwhat do you think i want?â you tease, wondering if he truly has caught on, or if heâs telling you want you want to hear.
âyou want me to fuck you, donât you?â his words catch you off guard, even though he said exactly what you were hoping for. âyou donât think i haven't felt you squirming in my lap all night? iâm not that dumb, baby.â his voice is barely audible at this point, just enough to get his point across.
all you can do is stare up at him, suddenly unable to form a complete thought, putty in his lap. your breathing grows heavier, and he canât help but notice.Â
âso, whatâll it be?âÂ
âplease, ti.â
he pulls you up into his lap and you straddle him, finding your place settled directly above the bulge in his since-dried board shorts. his hands immediately find their place along your sides, gliding gently up and down from your ribcage to your hips. his fingers linger slightly over the string of your bikini, toying with it, not daring to remove it. he leans down, connecting your lips from where they were parted dumbfoundedly in front of him, as if you had never been in that position with him before. you had, but this was different.
 he moves slowly, as if wanting to take his time with you, not knowing whether or not this would be the first or the only time he would have his way with you. you open your mouth once again, a moan escaping your lips. he takes the opportunity to slip his tongue into your mouth, licking up into you with desperation. the roll of your hips against him elicits a loud groan from him, now, and you decide that if that was the last thing you ever heard, you would die a happy woman. you can feel his shorts growing tighter underneath your lap, causing you to roll your hips again, slower than the first time. another groan escapes his lips, causing you to stop and look him in the eyes, your hands holding his face tenderly.
âwhat are you so fucking loud for?â you tease, knowing that the sounds heâs making are turning you on even more, as evident by the wet spot growing on his shorts.Â
âsorry, iâve just been thinking about this moment since we were 16. you donât know how hard its been to keep my cool around you, y/n. iâve been so good, so patient. i canât think of anything iâve ever wanted more than this,â he says, panting slowly, trying to control his breathing. he seems as if a huge weight has been lifted off of his chest.
you hold back the tears threatening to spill over your waterline. you feel the exact same way, just unsure of how to express it. all you can do is plant a delicate kiss to his lips, letting the moment speak for itself. his hands find that spot of your bikini top, finger rubbing lightly on the freshly tanned skin there.Â
âmay i, please?â he almost begs, toying with the strap of the thin top, a look of desperation looking up at you with big hazel eyes.Â
âof course,â you whisper, a kiss planted to the tip of his nose.Â
long, slender fingers make their way down your shoulders to the front of your chest, as he hooks the strap around his fingers, pulling slightly. a gasp escapes his lips as your full chest is exposed, the harsh chill immediately giving you goosebumps, you reaching back to unclasp and remove the rest of it. he sees the way your body reacts to the cold, and he takes your right breast in his large hand, enveloping it in his grasp, and you immediately feel warmer. he kisses you again, more passionate than the last, massaging the flesh in his hand, deft fingers keeping rhythm against your skin.Â
he leans back, taking you with him, now fully laying on top of him on the sandy blanket. his hands trail to your ass, the lack of his hand on your chest not too significant due to the lack of space between your bodies now.Â
the kiss never breaks, your hips rolling deep into him, the feeling of his hardness underneath you growing almost unbearable.Â
âti, i need you to touch me please,â you sigh, pulling away.Â
all he can do is look up at you, his face slack as he furiously nods his head.Â
his hand trails down your ass, following the hem of your bikini bottoms, his fingers tracing the fabric down to your core. he moves the fabric to the side, sliding his fingers through your folds with a loud gasp.Â
âoh my god, so fucking wet,â he groans into your shoulder, you kissing up and down his neck, nibbling just below his ear.Â
âjust for you, only you,â you whisper in his ear, causing his hips to buck up at you. âslow down,â you warn, not wanting to waste this moment.Â
he begins rubbing down on your clit, and now itâs your turn to moan. he glides his middle finger through your wetness a few more times before slowly teasing your entrance with the pad of his finger. you let out a whimper, signaling that he can go ahead. he slides his finger into your cunt, and you immediately feel the stretch of his thick digit.
âcan you take another, baby?â he asks, not necessarily waiting for permission before adding a second finger. the stretch was almost unbearable, and he could feel you react to it so viscerally while he scissored his fingers slowly in and out.
âjust wait till you take my cock,â he growls, his confidence suddenly taking over.Â
ânow, please,â you whine, desperate for what youâd dreamt about since you were a horny teenager fantasizing about his length in math class.Â
âwhat happened to patience, baby?â he questioned, fingers never losing pace in your cunt. âi wanna taste you; are you gonna let me do that, huh?âÂ
all you could seem to muster out was a weak âmhmâ; his fingers already overwhelming you.Â
he removes his fingers, eliciting a wince from you. turning you over in his arms, he begins kissing your face, barely avoiding your lips, down your chin, to your neck, stopping right by your ear.
âi know baby, i know, iâm gonna take such good care of you, donât you worry, baby,â his voice almost primitive.Â
he returns to his path down your neck, leaving marks that youâre sure your friends will see in the morning. he takes his time, agonizingly slow, and you wonder how he hasnât come in his shorts yet with how patient heâs being. he gets to your chest, placing chaste kisses across it, until he reaches your left breast. he takes your nipple in his mouth, rolling his tongue, causing you to arch up into him. he doesnât say anything, simply opting to hum into your skin, the sensation driving you crazy. he comes off with a pop, his hand quickly replacing his mouth as he makes his way over to the other side.
you run your fingers through his hair, the hair that he has yet to ruin with his midsummer chop. you twist the longer locks between your fingers, needing some sort of stimulation. your hands trail down his back, tugging at the collar of his t-shirt, wondering why itâs even still on in the first place, suddenly feeling overexposed.Â
âtake this off, now,â you demand, your voice sounding stricter than you intended. he stops, leaning up on his knees to look down at the beautiful sight below him.Â
âyes, maâam,â he groans, drawing out each word. if he hadnât had you pinned down beneath him, you probably would arched up into him. he reaches behind him, yanking the top over his head in one fell swoop, exposing his soft, tan chest, the few hairs left at the top near the base of his neck curling up neatly.Â
âstop starinâ, baby,â he teases, knowing exactly what youâre thinking, although both of you refuse to acknowledge it; something to tease him about at a different time.Â
he leans back down towards you, placing a soft kiss to your lips, eliciting a giggle from you, which makes him pull back, that signature goofy grin of his plastered across his face.Â
âyou ready?â he asks, making sure you two are on the same page, although he knows he doesn't have to ask.
a soft âpleaseâ escapes your lips, reverberating off of his own, and he begins making his way down your body, starting with your neck, softly nibbling at the skin there. he trails down your shoulder, kissing the newly-formed freckles that have appeared from the past few days of sunshine, then, obviously stopping to spend a quick second alone with your tits. from there he makes it to your stomach, causing your breath to hitch sharply. he pulls back, quickly placing another peck to your lips, as if to say âit's okayâ.
he regains his place at your navel, using his hands to pry your legs apart for him. despite your sudden shyness, you oblige immediately, and he lets out a guttural groan at the view of the wet spot prominently featured on your bikini bottoms.Â
âi need these off, now,â he demands, this time, tugging at the strings of your bikini, undoing the ties on your hips, patting the flesh of your hip to lift up for him. you oblige, and your bottoms are joined with your top in the sand.Â
mattias ducks back down, face fully aligned with your cunt. his finger once again finds its place between your folds, not quite doing anything, but rather scoping out just how wet you truly are. another groan escapes him, mixing with the moan that escapes you, harmonizing together into what you could only describe as a masterpiece. his groan echoes off of you, feeling the warm breath of him.Â
you look down at him, and he looks up to meet your eyes. while never breaking eye contact, he allows a string of spit to fall down his tongue and into your folds, making your legs twitch, embarrassingly though, because his tongue had yet to make contact.
you think heâs about to touch you again, when you suddenly feel the cooling sensation of his mouth on you, catching you off guard. his tongue circles your clit, much like how he had your nipple in his mouth earlier, causing you to arch your back into his face, the feeling of just 3 days worth of stubble stinging your thighs. he wraps his arms around your upper thighs, holding you in place.Â
âgotta be still baby; taste so fucking good. i love this pussy,â he coos, his warm breath once again driving you mad.Â
you giggle, not out of malice, but because you often found yourself alone at night, imagining him saying similar things to you, your own hand never seeming to do the trick. you wonder if heâs ever done the same, even though youâre pretty sure you know the answer.Â
you thought your reaction wouldâve deterred him, but shockingly, it only seemed to motivate him more, picking up his speed, practically making out with your core. his nose, long and slender, hits your clit, sending shockwaves through you, your legs growing shakier with each kitten lick.Â
âmattias, iâm close,â your words croak out; you can barely think straight.Â
âyouâre doinâ so good for me,â he pants, trying to stifle the moans that dare to escape his lips. âyou got it, baby, so fuckinâ good.âÂ
his words, mixed with his motions, are enough to send you over the edge. he continues his movements with his tongue on your clit, electing to tease your hole with his finger. the sensation is too much, and you try your best to keep your screams in, knowing that your entire friend group is a mere yards away, likely sleeping off their hangovers that were bound to appear.Â
you come, then, your legs shaking in his arms as he continues to lick through your orgasm. as your breathing becomes sporadic and heavy, he peels off, running his hands down the sides of your body to calm you down â and warm you up.Â
your shaking doesnât stop, and youâre almost certain its due to the fact that the temperatures have dropped since you and him became preoccupied, but thereâs no point in going inside now.
âhow you feelinâ, baby?â he asks, spooning you against his chest as you lay on the blanket. âyouâre shivering. do you wanna go inside? we can finish this in my room, if you want,â he continues, stroking your arms tenderly in his grip.Â
âneed you inside me, now,â you mewl, not fully able to find your words. you were gonna finish what you started.
âyou sure?â he whispers, and you can feel his heart beating faster â and his shorts growing tighter â behind your back.
âtias, i can feel you. you want this as bad as i do,â you half-argue back.
âi donât have a condom or anything; are you sure itâs fine?â he implores.
âoh my god, mattias, please just fuck me already,â you whine, begging him for more.Â
and with that, heâs rolling you over, pinning you to the sheet, the warmth of his body caging you in.Â
he begins kissing you again, his movements slow and soft, savoring the moment, all while simultaneously thrusting down onto you, trying to get some kind of friction going. you reach down between your bodies, untying the strings of the bright red shorts heâs wearing. you fidget with the waistband, and he lets out another groan.Â
âgo for it,â he confirms, panting into your ear, and you tug them down just enough for his cock to bob free. he shuffles them off, discarding them with the previous pile of clothes, and you look down between you two. he was right, it was big. you begin calculating in your head how he was going to make it work, suddenly growing desperate to find out.Â
âtold you,â he says, with that stupid smirk back on his face. you let out an exasperated laugh, catching his chains in between your teeth. itâs his turn to laugh now.Â
he pumps himself a few times, although he definitely didn't need to, adjusting himself in order to line himself up with your entrance. he glides his cock through your folds, and you arch up into him. he uses that opportunity to grab onto your back, keeping you flush with his body again.
he finally pushes in, and the stretch of him is almost mindnumbing.Â
âholy shit,â is all you can muster, as he bottoms out and readjusts himself to get the right angle. he begins slowly rocking in and out, not quite fully pushing all the way back in, and you can tell that he thinks you canât take it.
you moan his name, signalling for him to pick up speed. the sounds of your bodies mixing together are most definitely echoing through the air, and you hope and pray that none of your neighbors have decided to go for an early morning jog.Â
he finds his rhythm, picking up your left leg and hooking it over his hip. this angle is heavenly, and you can tell it feels good for him, too, because another throaty groan escapes his lips.
âso tight, holy fuck. you like that, baby?,â he asks, planting kisses across your chest and neck, leaving plenty of marks in his wake.Â
âyes, oh my god, ti,â you squeak, the feeling of his thrusts interrupting your ability to speak in full sentences.Â
you can feel him getting closer, judging by the way his cock twitches inside you.Â
âwhere do you want me, sweetheart?â he asks, and you know exactly what he means.Â
âanywhere. just not in,â you reply, your paranoia suddenly taking over.Â
he complies, pulling out. the loss of contact makes you wince, but he leans back on his heels, jerking himself off over you. your hand reaches down between your thighs, rubbing your own clit, until he swats it away, replacing it with his own free hand. the image of the large, muscular body in front of you, doing what heâs doing, is enough to send you to your second orgasm of the night. you come, quickly, nothing but smalls gasps escaping your lips. this is enough for him, and he spills, painting your chest with his seed.Â
you canât help but grab for your own breast, lightly rubbing it into your skin. mattias is still straddling you, his own breathing trying to recover.Â
âi wish i could take a picture right now,â he says. âthis is the hottest thing iâve seen in my life. youâre so perfect, oh my god.â heâs panting.Â
âwhy donât you?â you ask, motioning toward his long-abandoned phone on the blanket next to you both. his eyes grow wide, as if he was certain that he had misheard you, until you quip, âseriously, go for it. something to think about on your roadies. consider it a gift,â you tease, and he scrambles to grab his phone. he turns it on, the time now reading 4:38 am. the sun is just barely starting to peak over the water, the sky now a pale purple, like something out of a national geographic magazine.Â
he swipes to the camera app, lining you up in the frame, your come-covered tits prominately centered in the middle, the breaking of dawn just barely visible behind you. you hear the camera click, and you let out an exasperated giggle. leaning up, you wrap your hands around his neck, and he pulls you close.Â
âitâs fucking freezing out here,â you complain, your shivering suddenly returning to your body.Â
âi know, i hid your sweatshirt under the blanket about 2 hours ago,â mattias reveals, and you smack him lightly on the back of the head. he reaches over, lifting up the corner of the sheet, revealing the old sweatshirt, shaking the sand out of it. he uses the old sheet to clean you up quickly, then helps you place the sweatshirt on, planting a sweet kiss to your lips as your head pops out the top.Â
âwe should definitely head in now,â you say, standing up from your place in his lap. reaching for your bikini bottoms and loosely retying them to your hips, you then throw his shorts and shirt playfully against his chest, and he quickly and haphazardly put them back on. he continues to hold on to your top, and he grabs your hand as you make your way back up the dune, up to his house that is all too quiet now.Â
you walk through the gate, pausing at the sliding glass door, turning to face him.Â
âwe should talk about this, later,â you say, scared of what he might say next. he looks down at you, his height suddenly overwhelming you.Â
âlater is good, yeah. letâs just savor it for now, okay?â he suggests, and you wonder if he truly means it. your friends would surely catch on, and you have no clue how to go about that awkward conversation, even though, unbeknownst to the both of you, the group had been placing bets for years now about how long it would take for you two to break. anna was about to be $1,000 richer.Â
with that, you two quietly open the sliding glass door, both cringing slightly at the chime of the alarm system that notifies when doors are opened and closed. he leads you up the stairs, daring to not make any extra noise, when he stops at his bedroom door, your shared guest room that housed the 3 other sleeping girls just 2 doors down.
âstay with me, please?â he begs, and his eyes soften. he reaches up to rub his left eye with his finger, a nervous tic of his that never goes unnoticed from you.Â
âof course,â you whisper, and you let him lead you through to his room.Â
you make your way to his bed, grabbing a pair of his sweatpants that had been thrown lazily on the floor, replacing your bikini bottoms with them, the small article joining the pile next to you. he climbs up onto the bed with you, a fresh pair of boxer briefs now on his body. he pulls you close, taking in the scent of your hair â the salt of the ocean, now mixed with his cologne â and he lets out what sounds like the largest sigh of relief of his life.Â
you once again feel his heartbeat against your chest, this time, the steadiness, mixed with his rhythmic breathing, lulls you into sleep.
this wasnât the first time you two had shared a bed, but it was different, this time. as you drift off, you hoped that it wouldnât be the last time you fell asleep with him holding you like this.
we play with fire because we like the way it burns
a mob boss!Nico x nurse!fem!reader au
âŚcoming soon

thank you so much for taking requests on mob!nico! iâm loving this series so far. as someone who also loves jerseyleeds!nico, i was wondering, has this nico ever thought about starting a family of his own? it would make sense if heâs hesitant to do so because the whole mafia thing, obviously. but after reading part 2, i wonder if heâs also in fear that he might make the same mistakes as his own parents even though he does care about them. complicated family dynamics in fics always gets me in the feels *cries*
Hi! Thank you so much for reading! I appreciate all the love especially for mob boss Nico, heâs my favorite lol
Iâll probably include a longer and more detailed scene of this in a future chapter but reader and Nico have a really big talk about kids and family before they really got together. Reader had to leave a lot behind and start a whole new life when she decided to be with Nico so she had to know everything she was getting into.
Basically sheâs afraid that if they have kids theyâll be forced or pressured into going the family business like Nico was. She thinks itâs unfair to bring a child into that, not knowing if itâs actually something theyâd want to be part of. She also mentions that sheâs afraid of their safety, if theyâd be vulnerable to rival families and if itâs worth risking them like that.
Nico is 100% on her side and while he does say that heâd love his own kids to take over one day, he would not love them any less if they decided to not be in the businesses. He also promises her that none of them would be cut off or forgotten if they didnât want in. Heâd always make sure their family is taken care of and safe.
They donât come to a set decision on children but they know theyâre both open to having kids and what kind of parents theyâd want to be.

Him and I: Meet the Hischiers



Pairing: Mob Boss! Nico x Reader
Warnings: Alcohol, Nico's crappy parents, and mean girls
A/n: Ok I'm so sorry for how long this is, oh my god. I couldn't not add sweet moments between Nico and reader though, but I promise there's only one more chapter of them in Switzerland before they return to Jersey. Anyway, enjoy and please leave comments and thoughts and requests because I love writing mob boss Nico!

~~~~
Nicoâs childhood home is humongous. The SUV rolls up the cobblestone driveway to what youâd consider a mansion, honestly. At least three stories, with fields of snow covered grass and hedges, a looping driveway like at a hotel, and a bright red door.
Everything about it screams elegance.
And yet you can picture a tiny Nico toddling after his older siblings in the grass out front, chasing a soccer ball that was half the size of him.
The mental image eases your nerves enough that youâre able to teasingly scoff and smack at Nicoâs arm.
âYou didnât tell me your house is the size of New Jersey!â
Nico rolls his eyes at your drama, taking your hand in his and shrugging. âYes itâs beautiful,â he agrees âbut thereâs a reason weâre not staying here. Just remember that, ok?â
Dutifully you nod, but that doesnât stop you from leaning forward to gape at Timo. Your friend just laughs, directing the car into the spot directly in front of the door.
âThe Hischierâs are the closest thing to a royal family here,â he tells you. âAnd Nico is the delinquent prince that ran away from the crown.â
âStop lying to her Timo.â Nico interjects, his tone hard and commanding. You immediately sink back into your seat, recognizing that for some reason that was a touchy subject.
Youâll ask him about it later when itâs just the two of you.
This time when the car stops, itâs different men in wool coats that pull open Nicoâs car door. They greet him in Swiss German, nodding as he slides out and you follow, taking his outstretched hand and stepping onto the stone path.
They look taken aback by your presence, both sharing a look you canât quite read before greeting you with a simple âmiss.â
You smile, wrapping your hand around Nicoâs bicep and pressing into his side. Timo falls into step with you, walking alongside as you head for the front door.
Walking into Nicoâs childhood home is more like walking into a recently sterilizes hospital room than a house that three children grew up in. Everything is pristine, polished, and pearl white (or beige).
Not a single item in the main room indicates that a family lives here at all. Even the portrait of a man with a thick mustache and sharp nose hanging over the staircase isnât friendly.
âWow,â you breathe out, looking over at Timo. He must read the look in your eyes because he nods just once, clearing his throat when Nico shoots him a look over the top of your head.
âCome on baby,â Nico tells you, guiding you further into the house. âTheyâre probably in the sitting room.â
The sitting room is like a living room, only colder and not exactly lived in. His family is scattered around the large room, perched on white overstuffed furniture. The first to greet you is a light haired woman, and as soon as she smiles you know this is his mother.
âNico darling!â She exclaims in an accented voice, one that resembles his but with a tone of superiority. Rising from the sofa, she waves the man next to her up. Even if you were seeing him through fogged glass youâd be able to tell heâs Nicoâs father.
They have the same nose, same dark eyes that crinkle by the edges. Heâs shorter and less broad than Nico, but their posture and gait are the same. Even the way his dark grey hair falls is similar to Nicoâs.
Theyâre carbon copies of each other.
âSon,â the man greets, buttoning up his suit jacket. âThe rumors were true then?â
âRumors?â Nico asks, and his lack of greeting to his parents makes your stomach drop. Throughout the entirety of your relationship you never imagined Nicoâs relationship with his family to be like this.
âWord from the airport was that you brought a guest.â His mother supplies, a polite smile being thrown at you. You return it, hanging to Nicoâs bicep like a lifeline. Suddenly you feel pathetic, a random American girl pressed at the hip to the heir of a mob family that stretches three countries and two continents. Hiding in the shadow casted by not only Nico but Timo as well.
Maybe itâs a good thing Sieges and the others didnât come along.
âTimo insisted on tagging along,â your boyfriend jokes and if you werenât so stunned and stupid you would have laughed. âThis,â he continues, prying his arm from your hold to wrap around the small of you back âisnât a guest, sheâs family.â
Steeling your nerves, you take a steady step forward. âY/n,â you introduce, holding your hand out to his father. âItâs a pleasure to meet you sir.â
He takes your hand, squeezing gently as you meet his gaze. For looking so much like his son, he doesnât actually resemble him. His eyes are threatening and dark rather than comforting and warm like Nicoâs. Even the twitch of his lips feels like it was a muscle spasm.
âRino,â he tells you. âBut sir works better.â
You nod in agreement, now reaching out towards his mother. Sheâs just as calculated when it comes to introducing herself, her tone haughty and amused as she says âKatja.â
âWonderful to meet you,â you say, smiling warmly despite the thudding of your heart against your ribcage.
âYou as well,â she responds, then shoots her son a look. âIâm afraid we havenât heard much about you y/n, or anything at all for that matter.â
Ignoring the blow, you settle back into Nicoâs side. Timo cuts in, greeting them you think but you canât really hear him over the voice in your head desperately reminding you that Nico loves you, Nico wants you here.
Itâs not until Nicoâs nose is pressed to your temple that you snap back into reality. âBreathe y/n,â he whispers, his voice just a tickle in your ear but strong and encouraging. âYouâre doing perfect.â
Coming back to yourself, you take his hand in thanks as Katja directs her attention to the few men milling about the room. She speaks to them in Swiss German, an order obviously if them scurrying out of the room is anything to go by.
With her and Rino no longer focused on you for the moment, you helplessly look up at Nico. Heâs already watching you, not even a hint of a smile on that handsome face of his. Even so, his gaze is solid and proud, and the subtle tilt of his head tells you enough.
Itâs ok.
Your breath shudders, feeling weak under those eyes that know and read you so well. You look away, biting at the inside of your cheek to stop the welling feeling of tears. You have to stop before you let your thoughts run too wild, plagued by images of the sweet man before you living under the scrutinizing gazes of this family.
Itâs difficult to even picture how he turned into the Nico you know and love.
The return of the workers distracts you, this time a man and woman following behind them. Another copy of Nico, his brother looks like he could be the elder twin of your boyfriend. The hair, the nose, the jawline, the walk. Must be a Hischier man thing.
And the woman, so obviously his sister, physically resembles Katja but her eyes hold that same twinkle that lights up Nicoâs eyes.
âLuca, Nina-â Katja says warmly. âYour brother is here. With guests.â
Nico sighs, anything he might say remaining unspoken when Nina steps between the two sides.
âFamily, Mama.â She corrects, sending you a friendly wink. Like a million bricks have been lifted off your shoulders, you visibly relax at her welcoming.
âNina,â she tells you âyou have no idea how excited I am to meet you.â
She doesnât hold out a hand, instead stretching out both arms to you. Laughing nervously, you accept her embrace, briefly squeezing her in appreciation and introducing yourself.
âNever thought Iâd see Nico with such a beautiful woman,â she teases, an underlying sincerity in her words that warms your cheeks. âHe mustâve finally learned how to shower properly.â
Nico mockingly laughs behind you, grumbling in his native tongue to his sister but heâs quick to hug her smaller frame. You almost laugh when he tucks into her shoulder, curling in like heâs supposed to be smaller than her. Like a younger sibling thatâs forgotten heâs grown to be the tallest.
Luca greets you, not as warmly as Nina but with more friendliness than their parents. He plants two polite kisses to your cheeks, squeezing your biceps awkwardly before jumping into reuniting with Nico. Nina stands by her motherâs side, nodding at you just once as Katja and Rino tell Nico and Luca something you donât understand.
Resilience renewed, you turn your head to Timo and he leans down so you can whisper in his ear. âYou have to teach me something in German, Iâm drowning here.â
He chuckles quietly, leaning into your ear. âIâll try again but Iâm not a miracle worker honey.â You blink at him, jabbing your elbow into him in annoyance. He does it back, jolting you and your gearing up to hit him back when a firm hand is reaching around your back and taking a hold of your elbow.
Easily and swiftly, Nico pulls you into his side. By the way Timo straightens up, youâd imagine heâs been silently scolded by his boss. Smirking, you bat your eyelashes at him and innocently press into Nicoâs hold.
âWeâve prepared lunch, if youâre hungry.â Katja offers but sheâs already directing everyone to another room. The three of you follow obediently, not having any other option really.
~~~~
Lunch is better than the family reunion that took place in the sitting room. With the distraction of food and a cook and his siblings, Katja and Rino donât even spare you a second glance or get a chance to grill Nico about anything.
Anytime the Devs or New Jersey comes up, Luca or Nina will steer the conversation away. Youâre sure it has something to do with everyone avoiding the topic of Nicoâs leave of absence and lack of contact for the past few years, but you canât be certain because itâs never said.
Nico has a hand on you throughout the whole meal, either lacing his fingers with yours or resting comfortably on your thigh. He makes sure that you eat enough, that your water is ok, that you donât want more helpings. Itâs sweet, the way he always communicates through his actions. Maybe he didnât prepare you enough for this encounter like he shouldâve, but physically heâs been here and done everything to let you know that he has your back.
Besides, after listening to his family carefully navigate around unsavory topics over lunch, you can see why he struggles with words.
Especially when his mother is hell bent on making it uncomfortable. The plates have barely been cleared away when sheâs zeroing in on her youngest.
âI suppose itâs time you tell us why youâve come back,â she says airily. âOr rather why you left?â
Nicoâs fingers tighten around yours, eyelids fluttering in annoyance as he suppresses an eye roll. âMother-â
âEverything was set up Nico,â she cuts in. âThe house, the branch, Len-â
âThatâs enough!â He cuts off gruffly, silencing Katja. You stroke your thumb over his knuckle, unsure of how to navigate him like this in front of his family. Itâs different at home where you have a place, where itâs your job to step in and protect the boys from his angry bouts. But this is different, uncharted. You donât have a spot in the lives of his family let alone a place to interject. Hell, you donât even know the context of why Nico left either.
âWatch the tone Nico,â Rino says casually, âthatâs your mother.â
Sighing, Nico shakes his head. âIâm here for the week, take it or leave it. And I didnât come to answer questions you already have the answer for.â
You watch him look around the large table, meeting everyone gaze with a firmness he only gets on jobs and deals. When he receives a simple hum from his mother, he turns to you.
âLetâs go for a walk,â he says quietly, rising from his seat. You follow his lead, pushing your chair back in and sharing a nervous look with Timo.
Nico addresses his parents. âIâm gonna show y/n around the grounds.â Then heâs nudging you towards the hall, large hand on your back as you go.
âPut on a coat Nico!â His mother calls after you and he waves over his head in acknowledgment. Youâre silent all the way back to the front door, putty in Nicoâs hands as he zips you into your winter coat and slips his beanie over your head.
Returning the favor, the zip his own coat for him, adjusting the collar and hood so his ears and neck stay warm.
Nico doesnât return to being your Nico until the side door of the house is closing behind you. Immediately heâs attaching himself to you, hunching down to wrap his arms around your waist and tuck his face into your neck. Rising to your toes, you bundle your arms around him as best you can with all the thick winter layers between you.
Closing your eyes, you breathe in the cold air and just hold him for a moment. You donât let go until heâs pressing a kiss to your jaw, straightening out his posture and looking at you with those moony eyes of his.
âShow me the grounds,â you mock in a posh voice giggling when he rolls his eyes and offers his elbow to you. Taking ahold of him, you tuck your hands into your pockets and let him guide you down the shoveled paths.
The grounds stretch on forever, through untouched wooded land and open plains of snow. Nico shows you a tennis court, a basketball court, the indoor hockey setup him and Luca used religiously as children. You trudge through the snow with him, winter air nipping at your nose and dry lips aching as your awe of the place kept growing and growing. Every ten steps was something new, some fond memory Nicoâs dug up of his childhood.
âI almost broke my ankle trying to do cartwheels,â Nico laughs, gaze sweeping over the open area in which Nina apparently tried to teach Nico gymnastics. âShe hadnât even done gymnastics herself, but I wanted her to think I was cool so I did it.â
Giggling, you shake your head at him. âYou canât do a cartwheel?â You ask incredulously. Nico scoffs, shaking his head like it should be obvious. Releasing his arm, you strut to the open space in front of him and throw your arms up.
âWatch and learn Nico baby.â You tease, winking before executing a perfect cartwheel. The snow is cold on your hands, bites at your fingers but you do a couple more anyway just to show off.
Nico exclaims in surprise, staring at you with his jaw dropped and dimples in his cheeks. âAlright, just rub it in my face!â He complains and you laugh, giving him a bow. Leaning down he scoops up some snow, quickly packing it together. You have just enough time to curl into yourself before heâs throwing it at your torso.
Squealing, you dig your numb hands into the snow to throw one back. Dodging and ducking through laughter, you and Nico pelt each other with snow until your hands are so frozen you think they might fall off.
In surrender, you leap at him and throw your arms around his neck. The shock of your bitter cold fingers on his bare skin makes him jump and he goes crashing to the ground, taking you with him.
Luckily he breaks your fall, and the snow breaks his so itâs still giggles when you cup his jaw, sitting up to check him for injuries. Heâs got snow in his hair and eyelashes, his cheeks and nose glowing red as he bites at his bottom lip to try and contain his smile.
âYouâre so handsome,â you whisper, the words mostly spoken to yourself but in the large, silent estate they carry. Nicoâs cheeks redden even more, eyes glimmering with love. Then, thinking of the cold man from whom Nico got his looks, you quickly add âinside and out.â
His face falls with realization, a look of sympathy flashing through his eyes. Not that he should be sympathetic about anything, these people didnât raise you. âI shouldâve warned you,â he says âI just didnât want to scare you. And I didnât want you to think I donât love them because I do, theyâre just different.â
The snow has begun soaking into your pants, stinging your skin and you imagine Nicoâs butt must be just as cold. Yet he makes no move to get up, just stares up at you from the ground with those all-telling eyes of his.
âYou warned me,â you say âmaybe not intentionally but you did.â From wasting away the morning with you to the way he always had a protective hand on you today, Nico warned you the best way he knows how. With protective actions.
Brushing his hair off his forehead, you ask âwanna talk about it?â Nico sighs, cheeks puffing up as he does so and the cloud of his breath dances in between you. He agrees though, nodding for you to get up so you climb off his lap and take his hand to help him up.
Nico takes both of your hands in his, squeezing them before drawing the up to his lips. Eyebrows pinched together in concentration, he breathes hot hair in an attempt to warm them up for you. After a moment he squeezes them again, frowning when theyâre still too cold for his liking.
Giggling, you pull your hands back and hug his arm. âIâm ok, letâs just go back and we can talk somewhere warm.â
Pressing a kiss to the top of your head, Nico agrees. Oblivious to the figure looming on the balcony that overlooks the grounds, he leads you back towards the house, feet crunching in the snow.
~~~~
Clothes sopping wet and cold, you shuffle into Nicoâs old bedroom and immediately begin shedding your winter layers. Unsure of everyone elseâs whereabouts in the house, Nico closes the door and locks it before he too strips out of his clothes.
In just his boxers he disappears into the closet and you take the opportunity to look around his room. A large bed sits in the middle of the room, a fluffy blue quilt that matches the accent wall covering it. An old ratty teddy bear sits on the bed, looking out the large window across the room. The view is beautiful, snow covered mountains and white topped trees. Thereâs a desk in the corner, the top of it empty but the shelves have a few books and childhood awards scattered on them.
You tiptoe over, notice most of the awards have a soccer or hockey player on them. Thereâs one of a boy snowboarding and one engraved with a book, and though you canât read them inscription, the year on them tells you that Nico was under 16 when he won all these.
A photo youâve seen on his phone is hung up next to the desk, Luca and Nina holding a baby Nico on a beach somewhere, all chubby cheeks and blonde hair.
A poster of a Swiss tennis player hangs next to the bed, a few more photos scattered around the room. You donât get the chance to examine them because Nico strolls back into the room with a ball of clothes in his hands.
âNot sure when these were last washed but it should be fine,â he shrugs, dropping the mess of items to the bed. He digs out a pair of boxers, some dark sweats, and a long sleeve for you. You happily accept the dry clothes, stripping out of your damp underwear and bra.
Nicoâs Calvinâs are a little tight when you shimmy them up you hips but not uncomfortable. You pull the sweats on, rolling the waistband so they donât hang over your feet. Itâs not until youâre tugging the shirt over your head that you notice Nico is standing butt naked across from you, boxers in hand as he shamelessly watches you change.
Knowing where this going, you quickly pull the shirt on, raising an unimpressed eyebrow at him. âPut that thing away and start talking Hischier.â
He chuckles, beginning to get dressed. You sit on the bed, reaching over for the teddy and pulling it into your lap. âWhat do you want to know?â
âI know how you ended up in Jersey,â you say, fingers rubbing at the soft fabric of the bears ear. âInheritance from your grandfather and wanting to get away from here. But I always thought it was because youâre the youngest, ya know? You like to be in charge and you canât do that with Luca and Nina being in line for everything,â
Nico lets you talk, pulling on his teeshirt and settling into the bed next to you.
âBut your parents said everything was lined up. What did they mean?â
Nico sighs, eyes dropping to his lap and he fiddles with the tie on his sweats. You turn to look at him, walking the teddy bear across the mattress and plopping it in his lap. He doesnât look at you but a dimple sinks into his cheek and he takes the bear from you.
âMy parents were trying to branch out, stretch the business like they did sending Nina to France. They had this whole mock up of me using my inheritance to move to Germany and head everything there.
âBut they wanted to send someone with me. This girl whose father does business with mine. We had a thing kind of when weâre younger, not dating but like when I wanted to be with someone she was there. So they added a wedding to the plan and invited her to join the family.â
Thereâs no reason to be jealous of this girl, whoever she is. You know that, but that doesnât stop you from feeling a little nauseous thinking of his family picking out a wife for him.
âWhat did you say?â You murmur, slipping your fingers under his shirt and stroking the warm skin of his stomach. Nico picks at a thread on the bear, taking a deep breath.
âNothing, to them. I took the money and some buddies and left. Told Nina I was starting my own family in Jersey, that I didnât want to be married or in Germany.
âThatâs how I got Timo, Sieges, and Bratter to join me. Weâd all been friends for a while and they hated the girl. My parents didnât know, but sheâd been after Luca the whole time she was with me. He was too focused on taking over here in Switzerland though. Thatâs why she wanted him, she wanted to be the queen or whatever of Switzerland. â
âWhyâd she agree to marry you then?â
Nico looks up now, shrugging. You inch closer to him, stomach feeling sick and he must know you donât particularly like to hear this story because he nudges you into his lap. Straddling his thighs, you relax forward into his chest and let him wrap his arm around you.
âBecause one of us was better than neither I guess. I had a feeling she assumed she could marry me and then convince me to push Luca out or something. I donât know but I didnât say a word to her either, I just left.â
You nod, the joke Timo made in the car earlier finally adding up. Nico was the prince lined up to be married and grow the business, to make his family stronger. Instead he took his power and his means elsewhere. He built his own kingdom.
âI think youâre so smart Nico,â you mumble, ânot many 18 year old boys would be able to do what you did.â
Nico tucks the bear into your chest and you hug it. âI had help,â he says âbut it was the best decision I ever made. I got you from it.â
His phone buzzes on the nightstand, interrupting you two. You feel him reach over for it, holding you tighter as he leans over.
âNina invited us to go out tonight for drinks,â he says. âShe wants to have fun without my parents around.â
âIs Timo invited?â
âYes, Timo is invited.â Nico laughs, stroking your hair.
âOk. I have to go home for new clothes though.â
Nico hums his agreement, still stroking your hair. You cuddle into him, hugging the teddy bear tighter as you sort through everything he told you. Itâs impossible for you to see how some girl had Nico right in front of her, was lined up to spend the rest of her life with him and instead made him feel unwanted.
How could anyone not pick him? How was she not begging on her knees to run away to Jersey with him?
âNico?â
âYes baby?â
âI want you,â you whisper. âI always have and I always will. Iâd do anything for you.â
You think of everything youâve given up for Nico, the life youâd left behind for him and it doesnât even phase you. Because heâs worth it, always worth it.
âTrust me, I know my love,â he assures but you can hear the relief in his tone. Then heâs giggling boyishly, digging his nose into the top of your head. âI knew as soon as met you that there was no getting rid of you.â
Blushing, you close your eyes and enjoy his embrace, enjoying a moment with just him.

Luca owns the bar that Nina had invited you too. Technically the business owns it, but it was Lucaâs investment plan that acquired it and itâs his staff that runs it.
You find that out as Nico leads you by the hip to the sectioned off tables in the back. Luca and a few other guys mill about the table, some you recognize from seeing around the house today. Nina is there too, her long hair pulled back into a slick pony and sheâs sipping from a fruity cocktail with a blonde girl.
âYou made it!â Luca greets upon seeing his brother, his demeanor much more welcoming and laidback than earlier. You let go of Nicoâs hand so he can hug Luca again, his eyes crinkling as he laughs.
Timo bro-hugs Luca before disappearing back into the common area, most likely heading to the bar. Youâre reaching for Nicoâs hand again when Luca crouches down to meet your gaze, glossy eyes and smile shining at you.
He looks so much like Nico.
âThere she is!â He shouts, charging you with open arms. You laugh in shock when he scoops you up in a hug, drink sloshing against your back as he sways back and forth.
âHi Luca,â you giggle, awkwardly rubbing your hand up and down his back. âNice to see you again.â
He drops you to your feet, gripping your elbow when you stumble. Not that itâs needed; Nicoâs hand found your lower back as soon as your toes touched the polished floors.
âYou know, I never understood why Nico loved Jersey so much,â he shouts over the music and chatter âbut I get it now. I like you a lot even if my parents donât.â
Youâre not shocked to hear that but you dramatically gasp anyway. âYour parents donât like me?!â You cry, holding a hand over your heart. âWhatâll we ever do?â
Luca laughs at you, taking a swig of his beer before shaking his head fondly. âFuck âem,â he says casually âNicoâs better off with you anyway.â
Your cheeks heat up at his words, flattered by the praise. You were hesitant about Luca earlier, not knowing if he liked you or not. He was harder to read than Nico and Nina but you assume thatâs the oldest sibling in him.
Without another word heâs walking away, stumbling towards the pool tables with some friends. Nico leans in over your shoulder, nose brushing your temple.
âHeâs a friendly drunk,â he explains âbut he really does like you.â
You turn towards him. âHeâs funny,â you say âI like him too.â
Pressing the lightest kiss to your cheekbone, Nico nods towards the bar. âSomething with vodka?â He asks and you peek around him at Nina.
âI want what Nina is drinking.â
Amused, he nods and takes you by the hand. He approaches the booth, leaning over towards his sister to mumble something in her ear. You donât hear what she says back but Nico straightens out, stepping out of the way and nudging you to sit down. Happily, you slide into the seat next to Nina and accept her giddy hug.
Nico sweeps your hair over your shoulder, squeezing your neck briefly before going to get your drink.
âOh this is Maja,â Nina introduces you to her friend. You reach over the table to shake her hand and introduce yourself.
âIâm with Luca,â Maja tells you, her pretty blue eyes sparkling. âSorry I missed lunch today, I tend to skip those gatherings as often as I can.â
âI totally understand!â You laugh,â Iâll have to keep that in mind for next time.â
Nina gasps, gripping your arms as she beams at you. âYouâre gonna come back?!â
Giggling, you nod. âWell yeah, I know Nico misses you and Luca and it hasnât been bad. Besides, itâs beautiful here!â
âYou have to visit in the summer!â Maja tells you, âwe can make fondue and float the river.â
Nina agrees telling you all about how that was Nicoâs favorite thing to do when he was younger. Then sheâs inviting you to France, telling you all about the beautiful French men and how much youâd love them.
You let her chatter on, laughing at her antics. French men arenât exactly your forte, especially not when youâre dating a Swiss man but you can remind her about that later.
âNina,â Nico interrupts, placing your drink in front of you. âare you trying to set my prinzessin up with a Frenchie?â
Sliding in next to you, he wraps his arm around your stomach and draws you back into his chest. His sister gapes at him, so shocked by his words sheâs gone speechless and you shyly sip your drink.
âPrinzessin, Nico!â She gasps, holding her heart. Nina tells him something in Swiss German, reaching around you to excitedly shove her brother.
His response is also lost on you but you can tell by Ninaâs moony eyes and how he hunches into you that it was something loving and sweet. âSoon, soon.â Nico finally says, taking a drink of his beer and setting it next to yours.
âHey donât talk about me when I canât understand what youâre saying.â
Laughing, Nico presses a kiss to your temple. âSorry baby,â he says, squeezing your shoulders. You turn to face him, sliding your leg over his lap.
âYou didnât tell me about Maja,â you murmur, fiddling with the straw in your drink. Nicoâs eyebrows pinch together, lips pursing in confusion as he looks around the bar.
âWho?â
âNico oh my god,â you gasp âLucaâs girlfriend-wife-whatever?â
Some clarity washes over his face and he giggles, glancing across the booth to Maja. Lowering his lips to your ear, âI thought her name was Maria,â he whispers and you laugh.
âI donât know, Luca got with her after I left and heâs not chatty on the phone. For all I know heâs already married her.â
You look over your shoulder at her hand. âNo ring,â you tell him âand I donât think heâd get married without telling you.â
Nico shrugs, taking a swig of his beer before holding it out to you. You slide him your drink, trying the tangy beer heâs been nursing. Itâs not bad but beer isnât your favorite so you quickly hand it back.
âThatâs sweet,â Nico says, smacking his lips and returning it to you. âToo sweet, Jesus Christ.â You laugh, snacking an arm around his shoulders and digging your fingers into the strands of hair at the nape of his neck.
âItâs not that bad,â you argue, guiding him closer to you. Smirking, those dark eyes of his dance across your face before settling on your lips. He does the rest of the work for you, capturing your mouth in a sloppy kiss.
âMmm,â he hums, pulling back and swiping his tongue across his lips. âBetter.â
His voice has that gruffness to it, heavy and thick, and not just because his accent is stronger now that heâs home. It makes your neck and ears feel hot, stomach flipping.
âNo PDA in my bar Nico!â Lucaâs shouting makes you jump, almost knocking Nicoâs beer across the table and him and Timo snicker as they sit across from you.
âBar PDA is his favorite,â Timo laughs, winking at you. âHow do you think they ended up together?â
You canât even argue with him. Nico is notorious for being handsy, especially when heâs out and drinking.
âReally?â Luca hums, slinging an arm around Maja. âIt used be like pulling teeth just to get him to look at girl around here.â
And well, thatâs news to you. Although you suppose if he planned on leaving Switzerland anyway and he had that girl to fool around with whenever he wanted, whatâs the point? Youâre well aware that he was never looking for love.
Nico quickly changes the topic, asking Timo about his day with his family tomorrow and you join Nina and Maja as they sift through songs on the online jukebox to play.
The queue stacks up, your drink starts to run out, and Nico leaves with Timo and his brother to go play pool. Nina leaves the phone with Maja, taking you by the hand to the bar where she orders more drinks and drops them on Nicoâs tab. Not that it matters, you doubt he pays for drinks here anyway.
âIâm gonna head to the restroom,â you tell her, and she takes your drink back to the closed off section. The bathrooms are in the opposite back corner, a group of girls huddled in front of the door so you line up behind them.
Your phone buzzes in hand, Nicoâs contact lighting up the screen and you almost laugh. Of course he noticed you were missing.
Iâve lost my pretty girl
Biting your lip, you text back bathroom break âĽď¸
The typing dots pop up and youâre anxiously awaiting his response when the conversation around you catches your attention. Specifically the mention of Nicoâs name.
âHeâs still as hot as ever,â a dark haired girl in front of you comments, and you keep your eyes on your phone so they donât think youâre eavesdropping.
âDo you think sheâs actually with him or is that just another fuck you to his parents?â
Nicoâs text comes through, but you canât focus enough to read it. âI mean, she doesnât look his type so who knows. Didnât he say he wasnât into commitment Lena?â
Out of the corner of your eye, a tall and leggy brunette twirls her hair around her finger and shrugs. âIf he were into commitment donât you think heâd be with me right now? Itâs definitely just to piss off his parents, I mean did you see the size of her? Typical American girl.â
Suddenly you feel sick, like everything youâve ever eaten is choking up in your throat and about to spew all over the mean girls in front of you.
âI heard he put her in the family,â a quieter voice says. âTimo was talking about it at the bar with Luca. Heâs calling her his princess.â
The leader-Lena, scoffs. âPrincess? She hasnât even got a pendent let alone a ring.â
Maybe this why Nico doesnât talk about his exes. Theyâre mean and petty little girls, girls that havenât moved on in over 5 years. That doesnât make it any easier to hear though.
âProbably another one of his deals. He fucks her, she pretends to be serious with him for a family trip.â
âWhy would he decide to come back now with a fake girlfriend?â
âIsnât it obvious?â Lena laughs, loud and proud. âHe must have heard that Iâm back at the estate.â
You decide thatâs enough, pocketing your phone and clearing your throat. All the girls jump at the noise, turning to face you and you smile.
âAre you in line for the bathroom or just gossiping?â You ask politely, smirking as the color drains from all their faces. All except Lena, who looks you up and down before sheepishly nodding for you to go ahead.
âThanks, I appreciate it.â You say, stopping in the doorway to look at her. âYouâd think Luca would have bathrooms strictly for family but I guess not.â
Embarrassed, they all laugh awkwardly and you close the door behind you. What the fuck?
~~~~
By the time youâve returned to the booth, youâve shaken off the word of those girls. You trust Nico, you know Nico loves you, and high school bullies that pick on girls weight and nationality arenât going to change that.
Nico is still playing pool, but he catches your eye and winks as you settle in next to Nina. Smirking, you blow him a kiss before Nina is handing you music rights. Sipping on your drink, you pull up your playlist on your phone and find the Swiss songs Nico likes. Adding his favorite to the queue you hand the phone back.
âHow do you know that song?â Maja asks you, chewing on the end of her straw. You take another sip of yours.
âNico plays it every time weâre in the car.â You say, catching the eye of Lena over Majaâs shoulder. She simply raises an eyebrow you, throwing back whatever shot is in hand and purses her lips.
âHey, do you guys know her?â You suddenly ask, nodding towards the bar where Lena is now perched over the top to steal cherries from behind the counter.
âOh,â Nina mumbles, laughing awkwardly. âRino does business with her father and uhâŚâ
âShe was into Nico?â You supply, glancing over at your boyfriend. Maja bites her lip, hesitantly nodding.
âShe was supposed to marry him.â Nina tells you, lowering her gaze to the table. Suddenly it all clicks; the comments about sleeping with him, about him not committing, about using me.
The song changes, the beat immediately catching the attention of Nico who stands up taller and looks over at you. You smile, wiggling your fingers at him as Nina laughs.
âI never thought Nico could be so romantic.â Maja teases you, not that you get it. The rap song is lost on you, any translation youâve tried to look up being even more confusing. So you just enjoy the beat of it usually.
âWhat?â
Nina laughs, finally realizing that you canât understand Swiss German. âItâs a love song,â she tells you, and then sheâs pulling up the lyrics and translating them for you.
Itâs a lot of nonsense, cute tidbits about how the artist loves the habits and traits of his lover. But the chorus is sweet, a declaration of him finding love after being told he would always be on his own.
Unable to help yourself, you swallow down the rest of your drink and scramble out of the booth. Nico is watching you, bottom lip caught between his teeth as you approach him. Heâs leaning on the pool stick but as soon as you get close heâs moving it aside.
You crash into him, bury your nose in his hoodie and holding his waist tightly. âWhatâs her deal?â Luca slurs, but he goes ignored. Nico squeezes you just once, swaying side to side in time with the song.
Closing your eyes, you think of him singing along in the car, humming it in the shower while he washes your hair for you, blasting it through the house when you two clean together.
âWho translated it for you?â He finally murmurs, his smile present in his tone.
âYour sister,â you say, resting your chin on his chest and looking up at him. Heâs all white teeth and dimples when you meet his gaze, eyes glimmering with pride. âHer and Maja think youâre very romantic.â
Nico shrugs but doesnât argue. The pool balls clink behind you and then Timo is hollering. âGame over Luca, pay up.â
Luca mutters something in Swiss, heading to the bar with his head low. You let go of Nico, giving Timo a chance to high five you both.
âLet me teach you to play,â Nico tells you, handing you the pool stick. You follow him to the end of the table, letting him show you how to rack up the balls. Timo chalks up your stick for you, tells you about the cue ball.
And you go about your night, teaming up with Nico to play Timo. He stands behind you for every shot, large hands over yours on the pool stick and his warm chest tight against your back.
It feels so good to have him wrapped around you that you donât even notice the staring eyes of Lena and her friends.
And you donât bring her up to Nico, though you probably shouldâve.
