if your reqs are still open
can I request Simon Paladino x fem!reader? The reader is a prosecutor who absolutely wiped the FLOOR with Simon while he was trying to defend Gamma Jack in court. Afterwards they go for a walk late at night, no hard feelings but Simon’s embarrassed. They end up in her apartment (she’s no pro-bono lawyer so she can afford a fancy one). Maybe some smut afterwards?
i know this is quite the tall order but thank you either way!!
“Court of love.” Simon Paladino x Fem!Reader!
* Gamma Jack destroys property in a fight yet again.
* He hires his good friend Simon to help him out in the case.
You and Simon have been friends since you met eyes with the shy lawyer at the coffee shop, it took you a while to finally speak to him after a few encounters, coincidence that you two went at the same time everyday. He was actually- a nice and funny guy, you eventually got his number and you two became mutual friends, - but in court friends don’t matter.
You sit on the sidelines of the judge, you were hired by the owners of the building Gamma Jack had recked, as well as the city’s local sidewalk, the two came together to sue Gamma Jack for 200,000 dollars!- a big challenge, but nothing you could handle. The judge turns to you, a furrowed brow as he nods, approval for you to speak. “Gamma Jack,” You start off.. “Have you been prosecuted before?” Gamma Jack scoffs, hands behind his head. “Yeah, what about it?” A smirk on his face. “You see, the damage to this building-“ you walk over, showing the jury photos of the destroyed building and demolished sidewalk. “-Was worth thousands and thousands of dollars from the government, you see, the damage here is irreplaceable, considering they used a once in a lifetime, for their company, bullet proof glass. Specifically designed for this building. According to law, you must pay 200,000 to replace this glass, building, and sidewalk.” - “Objection!” You turn, Simon standing up. “You may not address my client formally, you may take up the charges with the city, considering they gave permission to build it, even if supers were in that area.” You glance at him, eyes squinting. “Well,-“ You turn to the judge. “It appears that all supers signed a contract. Agreeing to the terms that if they damage property, they must pay for it.” He cuts you off. “And, pray tell, where is this contract?” He questions, you smile. You were gonna win this. “Right here,” You say, pulling out a file with a contract in it. “Now Mr. Paladino, you tell me, what are your connections with Gamma Jack?” He stands tall, and speaks firmly “I’m his lawyer.” You cut him off again. “Lawyer you say? I remember specifically in the last court trial, you said that you’d had proof he didn’t sign that contract.” He stays put, but you can sense his doubt. “I do have proof-“ He says, more of a question than a statement. “Oh really Mr. Paladino? And where is that proof exactly?” You turn to the jury, showing them all the contract. “I- I do not have it with me right now.” “Oh and what lawyer forgets his number one tool? Evidence.” He swallows, voice gruff. “Your honor I-“ You cut him off, voice rising. “You forgot your proof Mr. Paladino?” You step over, as the jury watches with bated breath. “Did you really forget it? Or have you been stalling all this time because you have no proof!” You point a finger at him, whole jury gasping. As the judge slams her mallet twice, signaling her final decision. “Gamma Jack, you are hear-by sentenced to paying a 200,000 dollar fine to each the city and property owners. We find in favor of the Plaintiff.”
As everyone leaves the court-house, you fix your suit’s tie, yet another case won, and another check in that bank account, you were leaving quite late due to having to use the bathroom, you leave, it’s already dark. Ugh daylight savings, you decide a cab is too much work, you’ll just walk. You begin walking as you hear a voice behind you, gruff and familiar. “Y/N.-..” You turn around, it’s Simon! Now out of court you can address him correctly. “Oh, hey Simon, what’s up?” He looks slightly pink, looking away and sweating, sticking his hand out for a shake. “Congratulations, on-.. winning the case.” You smile, shaking it back.. “Thanks Si, sorry if I was harsh.” He sighs, “How’d you find out I have no proof?” You grin slightly. “I remembered every detail from the last two trials, and nothing added up. No hard feelings? Are you okay?” You ask, voice soft. “Yes- yes I’m fine. I just feel.. defeated.” You sigh, understanding how he feels. “Well, if it helps, I’m walking back to my apartment, I know yours is a little farther but we’re going the same way. Would you like to come?” You ask warmly, smiling as he looks up with those beautiful blue crystal eyes.. “Yes, that would be lovely.” As you two walk, the cool breeze relaxes you and him, as you guys begin to talk about your day.
You reach your porch, as you glance back to him. “Uh, well thanks for walking me. It’s quite dark and late out.” He nods. “You’re right, the cold front is hitting hard.” He turns and begins walking away, til you bark out- “Wait!” He stops slowly, turning around. “Yes?”.. “Would you like to come in? It’s warm.” He looks torn between coming in and leaving. “I-.. yes, sure.” He comes inside, looking at your lavish apartment, how could you afford all this? “Nice apartment.” You smile. “Oh, thank you, I put a lot of effort into it.” He sits on the couch as you go to the kitchen looking through the cabinets. “Anything to drink?” He answers slowly. “Wine.”
You and Simon sit on the couch, laughing about stories, and drinking that sweet red wine, as time begins to blur, and so do your thoughts. The bottle of wine begins to disappear, as you only focus on him, when did those lips look so good?.. those eyes. You stare, as he notices. “Do- do I have somethin on m’ face?..” you giggle, drunkly. “No.. I just like seeing you..” he blushes and moves closer automatically, til you do the same.. slowly and slowly til- you feel lips press against yours! Simon was kissing you..? You kiss back. Hard and needy. He tasted minty and like the wine, as you lay back on the couch and he crawls onto you. Pushing a knee between your thighs. “Wanted this m’.. your so sweet.. my pretty..” He says gruffly, clouded by the wine. “Mhm-.. yeah whatever.” You two continue kissing, as that leads to something more. You were just made to hold and fit him.
The next morning you wake up with a pulsing headache, looking up and glancing to the empty bottle.. til you realize, your sleeping on Simon’s chest! You blush but your head hurts too much to get up. He’s holding you, he’s warm.. soft.. as you look up, to see him sleeping and clinging to you, mumbling something like.. “five more minutes..” Oh god. How were you gonna explain this to him when he wakes up?
(I’m sorry but I don’t really wanna do graphic smt rn, hope you liked!)
