A little help (Neil x Transmasc reader fluff)(requested!)(short fic)
hello everyone!! This was a request made by : @aerinsarsenal (sorry for the late response been a lil bit busy! Also I'm very sorry for it being short, I have a lot going on right now, so I'm really sorry...)
It was 10:00 PM, the owls hooted through the night softly, and you sat in front of your desk, slouched, running your hand through your slightly assymetrical hair that you cut to make yourself look like a boy, your right thigh shaking up and down, as you try to understand the math problem. You felt frustrated and huffed, groaning softly into your hands, suddenly, soft knock was heard.
"come in" you say, looking over your shoulder, it was your boyfriend, Neil, smiling and closing the door and walking towards you to plant a kiss on your cheek.
"hey there," he smiles, looking at you, noticing your frustration and tilts his head in curiosity "what's got you so red? Hm?". He laughs softly, pinching your slightly flushed cheeks from frustration.
"I don't get it Neil, I don't get this formula I don't get anything I'm gonna fail, I'm gonna fail, I've been studying out of stress for this exam and I-" suddenly, Neil kisses you to shut you up, before pulling away with a smile, your face slightly relaxes.
"Hey, you wanna know my secret to straight A's?" He smiles and moves closer to your face and whispers "Calming down" he laughs, and you just scoff.
"Easy for you, you've always been smart all your life" you scoffed, smiling. Neil just shrugs.
"Well, I dunno, when I stress about a test then the next day I take it, I always get a lower score than my usual prefect grade test, which is like 3-10 points away from the perfect score" He says, playing with your hair, twirling it around, with a smile that always calmed you down, you laugh softly.
"alright, alright, I'll calm down" You breathed in and breathed out, you rested your head on his shoulder, he wraps his arm around you, humming a lullaby that always calmed him down, hoping it would work on you, which it did. You two stayed in that position for 10 minutes, occasionally he would kiss your head and play with your hair, laughing softly from endearment, looking at your slightly weird haircut, trying to look like a boy.
"Hey, next time when you want to cut your hair, call me okay?" He laughs softly, you groan out of endearment and flicked his forehead.
"I don't wanna hear it Neil!" You playfully pout, but you break into a smile looking at his cute face, Neil just smiles and pinches your cheek before caressing your face then looking at your desk and then at you.
"So, do you want me to help you review? Don't worry, I told the others I'd spend the night with you" He says, tapping a rhythm on your shoulder, you nodded quickly, you understood whatever Neil taught, he was a good teacher, one of the perks of being in a relationship with Neil, but the cons was his constant teasing.
You two started to review, he taught you about formulas, the pencil scratching against the paper and the eraser rubbing against the paper to fix a few erasures. Everytime you got the wrong answer, he always reassured you, telling you that it's okay to make mistakes because it helps you learn, when you got the correct answer he always said "My god! You're so smart aren't you?" "I knew I'd end up with someone intelligent like you!" "You might just beat me in getting into Harvard first!" "I knew you'd be a genius", it always made you smile and feel confident, and as you continued on, with this confidence, it helped you learn more and understood the lesson, Neil could see your improvement and felt pride in his heart to see his boy, his boyfriend, smiling from confidence and happiness because he finally understood a lesson, he was so proud of you, he knew he'd end up with a genius like you. As you wrote the solution and formulas, he'd occasionally kiss your head or play with your hair or draw circles around your back, or sometimes straightening your back to avoid you from slouching. Hours later, it was 12:00 AM, he gently stopped your hand from writing.
"Hey, come on lets go to sleep, you need a lot of rest for the exam tomorrow" He smiles at you, you yawn softly, feeling sleepy and tired.
"Carry me please.." You ask, your voice soft from sleepiness, he lets out a playful exhausted sigh and smiled.
"Anything for my prince charming" He said, and scooped you up, in bridal style, walking towards your bed, he always carried you when you were sleepy, he knew you were a little weak when your sleepy, always bumping into things and tripping, he gently lays you down on the bed, he was about to leave when you grabbed onto his sleeve.
"Can we have a sleepover?" You ask, yawning, you're eyes closing and already half dreaming, it was your own way of asking to cuddle and sleep since you found it a little embarrassing to say it as it is, he laughs, grinning.
"I was hoping you'd say that" He plops onto bed and held you to sleep, the night falls and sun rises, the blue bright sky replaces the dark starry sky of the night, and yet, nothing between you two changes, still holding eachother, like a cocoon, the night and weather was cold, but no matter how many wool blankets you cover yourself on, nothing could beat the lover's warm embrace.
(I'm sorry if it was dog shit chat, I'm like lowk trying to balance everything)
