Different version of me

⤷ In which you love all sides of Deuce

꒰ Background info: Some of the most precious memories of your childhood were of Deuce Spade. He was a kind and protective person. You were over the moon that Dylla (Deuce’s mom) was best friends with your mom. After all thats what brought you to Deuce. Things for the both of you were picture perfect, well until middle school hit. Deuce started to hang out with the wrong crowd and picked up fighting. And of course some of the people around tried to pick fights with you as well. That’s when Deuce started avoiding you at all costs. Was that his way of protecting you? ꒱

Tags: reader is a childhood friend, middle school Deuce mentioned, deuce x reader, Can be seen as romantic or platonic, might be ooc, slightly angsty (?) but fluffy

⋆ ˚｡⋆୨♤୧⋆ ˚｡⋆

Dylla was planning something. You knew it. You could tell from her sly grin as she frosted the donuts. “The others got the stall ready so now we just have to get there and bring these donuts,” She explained. “Mind putting them in the back of the truck for me?”

You nod, grabbing a stack of donut boxes. Dylla kept humming to herself and boxing the donuts away. “Hey, Mrs Dylla, what has you so cheerful today?” 

“Someone is coming to visit today for the white rabbit fest! You’re coming with me,” She beamed. 

You freeze, “I- I am?” 

She just happily nods and looks back at her work proudly. “Well that’s the last batch! Let’s get going. We need to see if our visitor is at the fest yet.” 

When you finally arrive at your stall, Dylla arranges the donuts in a beautiful display. Well all except for one box. “Could you carry this box? It’s for our visitor.” 

“Sure thing,” you replied. 

Next thing you know, Dylla is scanning the area and her face lights up as soon as she spots who she’s looking for. She gently grabbed your hand and took you with her. From afar you couldn’t really tell who she was so happy to find. But as soon as you laid eyes on him you flinched. 

It was Deuce Spade. Your best friend from childhood. The guy you thought you would never speak to again. But now there he was. Something about him was different. He no longer had bleached hair and went back to the natural color you had always loved. But as soon as everything was processed you panicked. 

He’s right here- and I’m right here! What if he gets upset that I’m here? I need to leave before he notices me. Those were the thoughts roaming in your head. And then in your panicked state you dropped the box of donuts. They splattered all over the floor catching Deuce's attention. 

“Y/N?” He gaped. 

“Deuce…” you mumbled, not daring to look up. 

“Based on both of your heart rates I can conclude that you’re both nervous to see each other." A bright blue haired boy spoke out. “I wonder why that could be.” 

Deuce flinched and began to stammer incomprehensible words and you remained staring at the splattered donuts. “Guys this is Y/N and that’s my mom.” 

Dylla waved, introducing herself. You slowly looked up and waved as well, still not saying a word. Dylla glanced at you, grinning as if this was the best thing that could ever happen to her. She then went on teasing Deuce and hearing the intro of his friends from school. 

They all seemed quite nice. They were nothing like the crowd that he talked to in middle school. This warmed your heart. He was with people that wouldn’t cause him trouble. You silently thanked Silver, Epel, Yuu, and Grim for entering his life. They could be there for him how you couldn’t be. Deuce had made that clear when he pushed you out of his life. 

You seemed to drown in your thoughts again without noticing until Dylla put a hand on your shoulder. “We’re leaving to get the boys changed up into costumes.” 

Huh? Had you really missed that much of the conversation? 

𓂃˖˳·˖ ִֶָ ⋆🌷͙⋆ ִֶָ˖·˳˖𓂃 ִֶָ

“Y/N, could you join Ortho and Deuce in going to the blastcycle shop?” 

You looked at Deuce then back to Dylla. The thought of him not wanting you there still consumed you. You guessed Dylla could see right through that as she gave you a reassuring smile. You take a deep breath. “Sure thing.” 

When arriving at the shop Deuce knocked on the door. The door started to open but was immediately flung shut. “Go away Deuce! You’ll only cause trouble,” The shopkeeper shouted from within the store. 

Deuce grimaced, looking down at the floor. Maybe then he could see your heart that had fallen with the shopkeeper's words. Maybe then he could see how much you still truly cared. 

“Shopkeeper it’s me, Y/N! I promise Deuce isn’t here to cause any problems. We’re here to help out a friend who needs a few things,” You explained. 

The door slowly opened. “You better be telling the truth Y/N!” 

You smiled brightly, “Thank you so much sir!” 

Ortho and Deuce looked around the shop while you sat in a chair waiting. “Oh I forgot to tell you but the last few parts for the blastcycle you're making came last night,” the shopkeeper noted.

Deuce’s face seemed to light up and all the nerves he carried momentarily vanished. “You’re building a blastcycle!?” 

You jumped a little bit hearing him speak. You truly couldn’t believe that he was talking to you. “Mhm, want to see?” 

Deuce eagerly nodded, following your lead. As soon as he caught sight of the blastcycle his eyes sparkled in awe. “It’s looking so cool! How long has this taken you?” 

You smiled, explaining every little detail of that process. He looked at you and his heart felt warm but something within him ached. This moment felt just like the ones you used to share before things went south. He loved seeing you this happy and that’s why he pushed you away. To protect that smile from ever being stained with sadness. But ever since he got his acceptance to Night Raven college he knew he had to fix his act. For his mom, for himself, and for you. So that he could be the kind of friend he wanted for you. And today he was going to show that to you, no matter how nervous he felt. 

𓂃˖˳·˖ ִֶָ ⋆🌷͙⋆ ִֶָ˖·˳˖𓂃 ִֶָ

“Don’t be shy, come on out!” Dylla ushered. 

Deuce slowly walked into view. He seemed so nervous and shy to be seen in his costume but everyone was so happy to see him. All his friends showered him with compliments and Dylla was happy to see her little boy in costume once more. 

You giggled softly, “Just like when we were little kids.” 

Deuce gaped, pink tint appearing on his face. He quickly looked away in hopes you wouldn’t notice how your words affected him. 

Dylla grinned at his reaction but quickly cleared her throat. “Okay, you guys go out and have fun. I’ll round you guys up for rush hour!” 

“Mrs. Dylla but I promised to help you out at the stall.” You protested. 

“You’ve already helped out more than enough. Don’t worry you’ll be helping during the rush. Plus, Deuce needs you.” 

Your face flushed a bright red, “O-okay!” 

For the next hour you felt something shift. Deuce paid for your food, tried to win you a bunch of prizes, and never once left your side, making small comments here and there. It was so odd to see the boy who once detached himself from you be this close again. 

Sure he talked to you back at the shop but you figured that’s because he loves blast cycles so much. But why is he doing all of this now? 

𓂃˖˳·˖ ִֶָ ⋆🌷͙⋆ ִֶָ˖·˳˖𓂃 ִֶָ

After the fest and all the events were over, here you were with Deuce at the beach alone. You both sat on the sand. Deuce appeared so nervous as he touched the sand. You began to let yourself sink into the silence when suddenly he spoke out.

“I’m sorry!” 

You gaped, “For what? I don’t understand…” 

“In middle school I- I kept you at arms length. I was cruel for avoiding you and leaving you without a single word! I was the worst possible kind of person. I got into fights all the time, I disappointed my mom, I skipped school, and I hurt you. I saw that you were slowly getting involved in my fights so I thought it was better to let you go… I thought it would keep you safe.” Deuce closed his eyes tightly. 

You let out a breath, gently holding his hand. “Deuce you don’t have to apologize. I was never mad at you or hurt by you. I also know for a fact your mom isn’t disappointed either.” 

Deuce slowly opened his eyes. “You should be mad at me.” 

“I’m not. Deuce you protected me from those fights. Who you were in middle school, I could tell it was because you were having a hard time. Either way the past doesn’t matter! You’re trying to better yourself,” You protested, hoping he could understand. “No matter what kind of Deuce you are, I wanted to be a part of it.”

Deuce teared up and hugged you as if you would fade if he didn’t hold you. You accepted him completely. Challenges and all.

----------------

A/N: Guys, Deuce is one of my favorite characters like you don't understand how much he means to me. This idea popped into my head the moment I saw him telling yuu about his past. I thought it would be so nice to see him have someone at home that loved him just as he is (Obvs his mom does but a friend). and finally I got the writing juices flowing to bring that thought to life. My execution of said idea might not be the best but I tried my best lol

Star crossed

⤷ In which Jamil is in love but he never speaks out

꒰ background info: You're betrothed to Kalim to solidify connections for Kalim's family’s benefit. All you wanted was Jamil to speak out, but would he? ꒱

Tags: royal reader, arranged marriage, Jamilxreader, angsty, maybe ooc??, based on a song (I didn’t love you anyway ~ Ruel)

────⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ────

“There she goes again. Sweeter than, sweeter than rain.” 

Jamil will never forget the day he fell in love with you. It was a rainy day. Those were the days Jamil disliked most. The world felt so mopey and the humid air was suffocating. It also carried a lot of responsibility. Keeping Kalim from getting a cold, drying off wet clothes, the excessive wind pushing your umbrella. 

But just seeing you changed that completely. You looked out from the windows, moving in anticipation. “Viper-Senpai, it’s raining outside!” 

“And?” 

“Let’s go!” You ushered. Jamil was about to protest but you grabbed him and dragged him outside. 

There were multiple puddles and the rain tickled your skin. The water droplets beautifully coated the flowers and you loved the view. 

“Let’s go inside, you’re going to catch a cold.” 

“It’s okay, I’ll make sure the guards won’t say a word,” You beamed. He sighed. He wasn’t worried about the guards, he genuinely didn’t want you to get sick. 

You continued to blissfully jump and smile in the rain. He wondered how you could be so happy when the aftermath wouldn’t be so joyful. 

You stopped and observed him carefully. “Come on, Viper-Senpai!! The rain isn’t so bad.” 

“I don’t see why you enjoy it so much.” 

“How can I not? The puddles are so fun, the rain is beautiful, and being here feels so refreshing.” 

Seeing you so content and at ease like this made him smile. Maybe the rain isn’t so bad as long as he was there with you. 

“Back on my own again. Leaving no reason to stay.” 

Once the plan of your engagement was in motion your parents ordered you to stay away from Jamil. How would it appear to everyone else if they saw you so close to Jamil? That’s how they viewed this situation. 

It tore you apart. To you Jamil was like a breath of fresh air. A person who you could just be yourself with. There were no rules or expectations with him. And now you have nothing. 

For Jamil it stung but it was expected. Everything he could’ve had or everything he’s ever wanted never came to pass. It was cruel to let himself believe that he could’ve had you. 

But even with restrictions he cherished the moments where you would secretly slip away and be with him. 

“Darling, it’s okay. I don’t love you anyway.” 

It all came crumbling down on one specific day. It was the day of your wedding preparations. You were waving and talking to the townspeople alongside Kalim. Everyone was so blissfully unaware of what you truly wanted. You wanted Jamil and there he was in the crowd, staring with tired eyes. 

“Jamil!” 

He flinched and attempted to walk away, but you got a hold of him and led him away from the crowd. “Jamil, you haven’t been talking to me. Why?” 

“You know what your parents ordered.” 

“That didn’t matter to you a few months ago,” you protested. 

“You’re getting married!” He snapped. 

Your hands trembled and your vision began to blur. “Well it’s not what I want! I don’t want to look out at that altar and say that I love Kalim!” Jamil gently grabbed your hands and squeezed them. “Jamil, why won’t you say something to my parents?” 

His eyes waver from yours, letting go of your hands. “I won’t. I don’t love you, Y/N.” He stood up and quickly left from your view. He couldn’t stand to be there while you processed his words. What he said was a lie but it was what you needed to believe. Jamil wanted this wedding to be easier for you. Maybe if you thought he didn’t feel the same, you could finally let go. 

“I’m not alright but I’m wishing you well.” 

“Y/N, do you take Kalim as your husband?” 

“I do…” 

In the back row of that wedding sat Jamil. Painfully watching but loving you like he always had.

A/N: Sorry if this one is a little cringe LOL. This oneshot idea just popped into my head while listening to ruel's song so I figured I would just write it hehe :) Not my best writing but still there nonetheless

Can I make you stay?

⤷ in which you have to make a choice to go or stay

Tags: reader is yuu, might be ooc, slightly angst but fluffy, platonic ace, deuce, grim!

⏔⏔⏔ ꒰ ᧔ෆ᧓ ꒱ ⏔⏔⏔

“Crowley found a way home for me.”

The air grew thick and the silence was unbearable. Of course, Ace, Deuce, and Grim, they all knew that one day this would happen. That you wouldn’t be a part of their world anymore, but why did it have to be now?

“He said I have a few days to make a choice…”

“To stay or leave?” Deuce questioned, looking at the ground and not even daring to meet your eyes.

“Yes.”

They all reacted in different ways. Deuce silently cursed at the fact he didn’t have the right words to say. Grim curled up on the couch, silently laying his head on your lap. For the first time he didn’t care if he showed his affection in a soft manner. And finally Ace, he told you he was glad you had a way home, but deep down he was hurting just as much as the other two.

That night you all decided to have a sleepover. To escape reality just a little while longer. Grim caved into sleep, as well as you. Deuce and Ace on the other hand laid in their sleeping bags thinking.

Deuce wanted to make you stay.

Ace knew that this was your choice to make. Whatever choice you made, he would have to smile and go on living. But somewhere deep down he wanted to subtly hint that he wanted you to stay. To show you that he needed you here. Right at his side.

They were going to do everything possible to show you they cared. Just like you had with them. They couldn’t just sit and do nothing. You made Deuce want to strive for something bigger. You made Ace softer. You showed Grim what a home could feel like. And for that they wanted to repay you.

The next few days each one showed you displays of affection.

Deuce took you on multiple blastcycle rides. Sometimes landing on the beach or the prettiest spots in the woods of the school.

Ace would sit you down to play card games and chat like he always had. He also stayed attached to you every second he possibly could. No longer afraid of what you might think about it.

And Grim, he would start setting aside little bits of his food for you to have. He’d also compliment you in his own Grim way. Making you feel like his special hench-human!

Finally the day of your decision, and they all sat on the couch anticipating your choice. It would either bring them relief or stab them in the heart.

“I- Ive decided to stay.”

All three released a huff of breath. Not caring to hide just how happy this made them all.

“But- but you always said you wanted to go back home…?” Ace spoke out.

A soft smile rose on your face. “Things have changed since then. How could I want to go?”

“I don’t understand-“ Deuce sputtered.

Gentle tears started to fill your eyes. “How could I want to leave, when I have everything I’ll ever need here. You’re my family! I want to continue making new memories. I want to keep hearing Grim calling out for me. I want to keep studying and going on blastcycle rides with you, Deuce. I want to keep smiling and laughing with you, Ace,” you exclaimed, tears now uncontrollably falling. “I- I want to be home!”

This rendered you all a sobbing mess. But what did that matter? When you guys were right where you wanted to be.

With each other.

Part of your world (Kalim Al Asim)

“That’s where we’ll be! A thrilling chase, a wondrous place, for you and me!”

. ܁₊ ⊹ . ܁ ⟡ ܁ . ⊹ ₊ ܁.

You’ve known Kalim and Jamil ever since you were little. As soon as Kalim’s family found out you were a royal they invited you to play with Kalim. Though soon enough playing visits became visits for both your parents to arrange a marriage between the two of you.

When they came to an agreement to marry you off after you both finished high school, you spent most of your days with Jamil and Kalim. Both of you were too young to understand just how drastic this arrangement could be. In your little kid brain all that mattered was spending time with your cherished friends Kalim and Jamil.

Now all three of you were accepted into Night Raven College. You could tell that Jamil wasn’t really fond of the idea of having Kalim and you in the same dorm as him. After all, you knew this school was his way to finally breathe. You knew that both Kalim and your parents had assigned him to care for the two of you. But ever since you were old enough to understand you had sworn to make Jamil’s life easier.

You always found little ways to help him, like folding your own clothes, learning how to cook some meals, and other sorts of duties. Of course, Jamil would always sigh begging you to let him do things for you, otherwise he would get in trouble. You always shook him off saying that you could handle it. The only time you ever let Jamil do anything for you was when someone from the royal family was watching.

As much as you understood Jamil, you also understood Kalim. His life was full of expectations, and full of danger. Kalim felt like he couldn’t express anything other than happiness because he was always pampered by his family and got everything he could have ever wanted.

The more layers you saw of Kalim the more you fell for him. You knew this relationship with him was only arranged and that he might not feel the way you do but you were willing to love him anyway. You were determined to show him that his life could be so much more than what his parents wanted of it.

. ܁₊ ⊹ . ܁ ⟡ ܁ . ⊹ ₊ ܁.

Kalim was feeling upset, hiding in his room so no one could know. Unfortunately for him, you knew him like the back of your hand. You quietly tip-toed to his dorm room and knocked. You could hear a stumble from the inside. Then he opened the door, peaking his cute face out the door frame.

His face seemed disheartened but he quickly shifted into a smile. “Y/N?” He slowly opens the door and moves onto his bed.

You sigh, closing the door behind you, plopping yourself next to him. “Hayati, don’t keep things from me. I know you aren’t feeling well.”

Kalim stared into your eyes and began to pout. “That’s not fair!! How do you always know?”

“Because I care about you.”

His whole body lightened and he let out a deep breath. He gave you a soft smile, laying his head on your lap. He gently rested his hand on your stomach. This made butterflies twirl in your stomach and your cheeks turn pink. Though flustered you softly brushed his hair. “I have an idea that might cheer you up.”

He lifted his head to gaze at you, like every word mattered to him. “You do?”

You smiled softly, nodding. “Let’s go to Foothill town and just hang out!”

Kalim’s eyes immediately lit up, sitting back up. “I love it! Let me just let Jamil know.”

You flinched and grabbed his hands. “Jamil can’t know about this one. I know we're supposed to inform him of our whereabouts but…” Kalim blinked multiple times, tilting his head. It was quite the cute sight. “I-I just want it to be us ... .and I want you to feel like you don’t need to be hovered around. I want to spend a normal day with you. Where we don’t have to walk on eggshells or worry about our parents or anyone else controlling what we do or how we behave.”

Kalim stared back with gentle and loving eyes. He quickly wrapped you in his embrace, then placed a small kiss on your cheek. “Just us. No expectations.” Tears swelled up in your eyes.

. ܁₊ ⊹ . ܁ ⟡ ܁ . ⊹ ₊ ܁.

You and Kalim managed to sneak out from Scarabia into Foothill town. There were so many shops to see and so many things to do. You stuffed yourselves with all sorts of food. You also went around stores, goofing off and trying out all kinds of funky outfits. Then you went to karaoke, singing your hearts out. And finally you both laid on a flower field, chatting about whatever came to mind. Both of you laughed and enjoyed yourselves. Today you got to do things that made you feel like just two normal teenagers. Things your parents would have told you were not fit for your status. It felt just like when you were little kids, doing things without a care and hiding from everyone who expected more of you.

It was just you and Kalim.

In your own beautiful world.

_______________

A/N: hey hey ◝(ᵔᗜᵔ)◜ this one shot is based off of part of your world from Aladdin! This is part of my series where I use a song from the movie that a dorm is based on for my fav characters in twst :3 if you enjoyed this one, I’ll have the other versions that I have so far listed here!

Ace: here

Ruggie: here

Jade: here

For the first time (Jade leech)

“Here for the first time. Now for the first time!”

𓍊𓋼𓍊𖡼.𖤣𖥧𖡼.𖤣𖥧𓋼𓍊𓋼

Ever since you were little you dreamed of helping merfolk learn to live on land. The dream stemmed from the fact that your mom fell in love with a merman. You wanted other merfolk to live just as happily as your parents did.

Now there you were at one of the most popular facilities that was capable of helping merfolk. They did everything possible for these people. For example, providing transformation potions, and lessons of all sorts to get used to land.

You were currently looking through your phone, trying to find your next mountain adventure. Though that was quickly interrupted by your mother (who also helped at the facility). “Honey, I’d like you to meet Jade leech. You’ll be helping him get adjusted to land for the next few months!”

You quickly stood up and observed the boy. He was quite tall and not to mention his eyes were beautiful. His hair was a stunning color as well. He looked like such a gentleman as he quietly stared back at you.

“Pardon, but is there something on my face?” Jade questioned.

Your face quickly turned a shade of pink. ‘Didn’t realize I was staring too long,’ you thought. “Oh- um not at all! Sorry about that.”

Now that’s where everything began.

For the next few weeks, your days were filled with Jade leech. He was interesting to say the least. Slowly but surely you found him endearing, he was always filled with such curiosity and mischief.

There were so many moments that you held dear. The first time he managed to jump, the shock in his eyes when he accomplished that small but meaningful obstacle. The time where the fire blazed and decorated the sky with its hue, seeing Jade’s eyes sparkle in amazement, his hand slowly leaning to touch it but moving away quickly at the heat. Him trying all sorts of meals and getting to enjoy the satisfied smile on his face after.

But there is one moment you hold above every other moment. It was the first time you asked Jade to hang out with you outside of helping him adjust. You didn’t want to admit it but you had caught feelings for the boy.

“Jade…”

“Hm?”

“Would you care to join me in going to the mountains?” Jade just gave you a little playful smile making you completely nervous. “I-I mean only if you want to.”

Your reaction got him to laugh that mischievous but beautiful laugh of his. “I’d be delighted to accompany you. I’ve never been up a mountain, so it should be interesting.”

𓍊𓋼𓍊𓋼𓍊

It was finally the day you were going up the mountains with Jade. His attire was quite stunning, making your heart skip a beat.

“I hope my attire is appropriate for this occasion. I did my research after all,” Jade commented, smiling softly.

You gave him an enthusiastic nod. So cute, he looked into this!

As you went up the mountain with Jade you went on a rant about all sorts of plants and animals that were up the mountain. Talking about all the mountains had to offer was one of your biggest passions after all.

Jade stared at you intently, taking in every single word you spoke. He loved learning about the world on land, and you were the perfect person for that.

You finally took note of his stare causing you to flinch. “Im sorry, am I going overboard?”

“Not at all. In fact I’m rather intrigued,” Jade grinned, carrying a slight tone of tease.

After a few minutes it was now your turn to stare. It was wonderful to see just how in awe Jade was. He moved quickly from place to place. Crouching down to look at the plants up close. The stuff that caught his eye the most was different types of mushrooms. It was quite cute actually.

After wandering around, Jade and you sat in a small flower patch observing the beautiful night sky. “This mountain was beautiful but I do hope to visit enchantment lakes one day! It has always been on my must see list.”

Jade tilted his head slightly. “Why so?”

Your eyes began to sparkle. “Ive looked at various photos and the lakes just look so beautiful from up there! I love how the water touches the land. Making both of our worlds collide with such beauty.”

𓍊𓋼𓍊𓋼𓍊

Jade was now attending Night Raven College. And it’s safe to say that you miss him. You stare at the photos you took with him like a wife whose husband has been set out to war. Sure you kept contact with him through text and call but it would never feel the same as having him right here with you.

A message appeared on your phone almost as if the world knew you craved his presence.

The message was from Jade, reading, look out the door. You quickly got on your feet, practically slipping. There he was all bright and handsome as always.

“Care to join me in visiting enchantment lakes?” Jade smirked.

He remembered…

Of course you accepted!! You’d be crazy not to.

A bright smile appeared on his face. It wasn’t a teasing one or a mischievous one. It was one of his rare genuine smiles. And it was all because of you. The person who introduced him to his love for mountains and mushrooms. The person who made him feel like he belonged on land.

The person he got to experience all his first times with.

A/N: this oneshot is based off one of the songs from the most recent little mermaid! I wanted to make a one shot based on songs from the dorms respective movies and using my favorite characters from each dorm :) this one came out kinda eh (╥﹏╥) but I hope it’s enjoyable nonetheless. If you’re interested in the other versions ive made of this so far, it’ll be down this!

Ace: here

Ruggie: here

Can you see through me? (Ruggie Bucchi)

“So many things to tell her, but how to make her see?? The truth about my past...... He’s holding back, he’s hiding. But what, I can’t decide.”

°❀⋆.ೃ࿔*:･°❀⋆.ೃ࿔*:･

Ever since the spelldrive incident Ruggie had piqued your interest. He was always looking for ways to make money even if it meant to be sneaky or have some manipulation involved. You were aware that most of his tactics weren’t the most morally correct but you could tell he was doing all of it for a reason. You just needed to find out why.

You were currently at lunch observing Ruggie making smooth maneuvers to get limited items on the menu. Your hand was resting on your face, eyes observing him intently. Suddenly you heard Ace ‘pst’ at you.

“Hmm?”

“You’re making googly eyes at Ruggie, what’s up with that?” Ace questioned, almost looking concerned.

You flinched. “I am NOT!” Ace just chuckled in response. “I’m just curious about him is all.”

“I can’t seem to see what would be so interesting about him,” Ace commented.

“He’s just really sneaky. I’m curious why he’s always so entranced by money.”

After that conversation with Ace you decided that you shouldn’t just sit around observing. You desired to know him completely. Slowly but surely you spent more and more of your days getting to know Ruggie. He was funny and surprisingly kind even though he always hid it behind sly remarks. As for what he thought of you, he thought you were odd but fun to be around. In short, both of you were curious about each other.

You quickly became friends. You’d spend time together at lunch and frequently after school you would have picnics (all the snacks were on sale). You also helped him deal with any errands Leona made him run. You were becoming each other’s ordinary.

Your heart grew fonder of the boy because you discovered pieces of him that others only knew at surface level. He did everything he could to get money because him and his family never had the privilege to just relax and live their life. They had to fight for everything they had. Knowing all of that had you determined to make his life a little lighter. A special moment only solidified that for you.

You softly hummed as you made donuts in the school's kitchen. It was quite a gentle atmosphere. Abruptly someone was heard walking through the door. It was none other than Ruggie. He paused in his tracks as soon as he saw you. “Oh, hey Y/N, watcha up to?”

A smile adorned your face upon hearing his voice. “Just making donuts, and you?” His eyes lit up as he heard the word donuts. His reaction made you giggle. “Want some?”

“Heck yeah I do!” Ruggie beamed. He sat on the counter right next to you as you made another batch. “To answer your question, Crowley allowed me to take some food that is gonna expire soon back home to my family this weekend.”

“That’s awesome! I didn’t know you were going back home this week.”

“Mhm, I need to pay grans a visit,” he grinned, biting his donut. An idea popped into your head and you moved happily.

“Do you mind if I tag along?” He tilted his head, curious about your question. It made your face flush, stomach full of nerves. “I- I just thought I could make some desert for your family! Trey taught me how to make a few varieties.”

Ruggie hid his face from you because there was no way he was going to let you know he was blushing. “Yeah, you can come,” he mumbled, shyly.

Ruggie’s home was super welcoming and his whole family loved spending time with you. Ruggie couldn’t help but smile at the view of the neighborhood kids laughing and having a blast with you. It was a view he wanted to see more often. He wanted more time with you.

“Sorry little fellas but I’m gonna steal Y/N from ya,” Ruggie spoke up. All the kids booed and Ruggie laughed in response, pulling you away.

“Where are you taking me?” You questioned.

“Somewhere.”

Ruggie led you to a beautiful flower field where he had set up a blanket, covered with all kinds of snacks. You stared at the view in awe, looking from him back to the sights. “What’s all this for?”

He quickly got shy but patted the blanket, indicating for you to sit with him. “It’s a thank you for always helping me out…and for being so nice to my family.” Blush covered your face. “At first I thought you were a little odd for always wanting to hang around me but now that I know you I’m thankful. You never judge me and find the best in me. Honestly, I was scared that you could see right through me and all my faults. It no longer scares me.”

He gave you a tight hug and you rested your head on his shoulder. “I’m super thankful for you too. Please never hide who you are.”

That’s where love bloomed.

A/N: hey hey!! This one shot is based on can you feel the love from Lion King :3 I thought it would be a fun concept to base one shots on some songs from the movies that the game is based on :p I’m doing them with my fav characters in each dorm hehe. If this interests you feel free to read the one I did for Ace right here (˶ˆᗜˆ˵)

Paint the roses (Ace Trappola)

“And yet we go ahead painting the rose red”

“Now Y/N I know you are a common guest at Heartslabyul but you are distracting one of my card soldiers,” Riddle explained.

“Aww come on Riddle-chan don’t be too hard on her,” Cater pouted, putting all his weight on your back.

“I wouldn’t have to be if you weren’t so easily distracted,” Riddle huffed.

Cater made a sad trumpet sound but continued painting the roses as demanded by his housewarden. Riddle suddenly picked up a bucket from the corner of a bush and handed it to you, giving you a glance as if instructing that you follow Cater’s lead.

It was like the world was constantly against you because right as you began painting alongside Cater you heard a familiar laugh. It was one that you hated but loved at the same time. One that gave you butterflies. Oh how you hated that. It was your best friend, Ace Trappola.

“Looks like the ramshackle prefect got stuck on painting duty,” Ace teased.

“Shut up, this could’ve been you too but you ran away once you saw Riddle coming! I wasn’t the only one distracting Cater.” Suddenly an idea popped up into your head. If you had to go through this, so did he. You quickly grasped his hand, dragging him to the nearest bush. “Looks like another card soldier got stuck on painting duty.”

Ace sighed. He knew he could easily run away. It’s not like you were the housewarden giving him orders. But he stayed anyway, complying to your wishes. As much as he hated to admit it to himself he loved that sly smile that adorned your face when you saw him stay with you. ‘She owes me though’ he thought to himself.

Ace began using his magic pen to easily paint the roses. After all, it helped Cater finish his assigned bushes so quickly. Your smile fell. If Ace was using magic that meant you were soon to be left alone finishing your bushes. It was one of the many disadvantages of being magicless.

You looked down at the ground, staring intently at the two red buckets sitting beside your feet. If you were stuck with the real paint, might as well make it fun. “Hey, Ace.”

“Sup?” He questioned, looking straight at you. A sly smirk appeared on your face once more. You gently patted the paint brush on Ace’s nose, leaving traces of paint on him.

His eyes widened, mouth dropping in shock. You didn’t say anything, instead you broke into a pit of laughter. “You should see yourself in the mirror right now!”

“Oh it’s on, Y/N!” Ace quickly knelt down grabbing a paint brush and smothering it with paint. A radiant smile was sent your way. Next thing you knew your cheeks were covered in paint.

Both of you went like this back and forth. Yelping and running away from each other. You hid behind a bush, attempting to catch your breath. Ace spotted you and he grabbed your waist from behind, spinning you around before putting paint on your nose.

There was no doubt Riddle would have both your heads for getting distracted once more, but in that moment it didn’t matter. You were with Ace making new memories. Making both of your hearts grow fonder of painting the roses together.
