my bad

okay so i did one of these for bishop before and like that was at a party setting and that’s probably still what i have in mind for this too because i have no self control

so at parties with angel it could really go one of two ways, as my dumb ass has stated before, he’s either all over you legit hanging off of you until you’re basicslly dragging this bitch around with you like a sack of mother fucking potatos or he’s attempting to play it cool by letting you do your own thing but he never doesnt have eyes on you like

so maybe it’s one of the play it cool; he’s hanging out, maybe it’s AN ACTUAL FUCKING PARTY WHERE THEY CELEBRATE EZ GETTING PATCHED BECAUSE WHAT A CUTE BABY

so he wants to be proud of his brother and you don’t mind taking a back seat to him tonight because you know how much this means to their relationship, how much this means to both of them plus you love ez

no matter how much shit you give about not needing another night where everyhting is about him because ‘believe me you’ve had enough of them’

but as ez would atest to, you always find each other 

ez calls it moron magnitism 

“the moron draws you in like a mother fucking magnet, he could be dead in a ditch and youd still stumble your ass over to him” 

“and if that moron even hears you fucking whispering for him, he’s there in a fucking half a heartbeat”

and god you loved seeing them reconnect like this again, just seeing them together after all the bullshit that they went through together 

but by the end of the night you’re curled up on the couch, wrapped in one of his flannels falling asleep on the couch with like a sleepy smile because you’re happy they’re together but miss him already 

sitting on the couch, supporting your head on your hand and legs tucked under and to the side of you and like falling asleep

every once in a while, coco or gilly will walk by to  ask if you’re okay, ruffling your hair kissing your forehead “you alright, mamas?” “want me to call em over?” 

and you’re like dismissing them, waving them off being like “nah, let him have his fun” “let the hermanos be”

but the moron magnetism, it never fails, one sleepy pout and angel is pushing through everyone to get to you 

plopping himself down onto the couch next to you and grabby hands activated

“vente mi amor” he murmurs softly and opens up his arms for you to curl into him and immediately you like leech onto him

you turn your body so that you’re straddling him and you can wrap yourself around him

 at first, he’s just being silly and wrapping both his arms around you and smothering your face with kiss like hovering and giving you sloppy ass kisses 

and usually you’re giggling, fighting back, calling uncle but you’re like murmung sleepy protest, and at one point you whimper and are like “angel....”

and in that moment, you become his personal baby, like his voice gets soft as fuck and he stops and runs his hands through your hair 

“princesa, ‘m sorry, come on” he’s nearly cooing and like gently nestling your head into his the crook up his neck

or maybe you prefer curling up to him , laying down with your head in his lap so he can run his hands through your hair and like patting at you to rock you because like i said personal baby

and even though he’s as quiet as he can be once you do fall asleep he’s still angel and my favorite head cannon is him trying to get someone across the room to shut the fuck up by being like 3 times as loud as that one person who wasn’t even bothering you in the first place

ez laughing too loud or even just like at an acceptable level for a party and angel shooting up and being like “shut the FUCK up, she’s trying to sleep”

and you’re already jolted half awake by him getting up, eyes all swollen as you look up at him in confusion 

and he’s immediately like “fuck im sorry, mi reina, fuck see what you do ez. fucking idiot. come here baby”

and ez is just holding down a laugh and is like “you are aware she can also hear you, right:

and before angel can do anything, you’re pulling him back down to sit with you telling him how you need your pillow again

but angel looking down at you and watching you sleep is the softest thing

because it’s like everything around him stops and the little smile he gets as he like rubs his thumb against your cheek gently

hes just thinking is this how it is to feel calm ???

after seeing you toss and turn for a bit trying to find a comfortabe spot, he decided it’s about time to take you home and he picks you up in a bridal sweep and is like whispering to bishop that he’s going to head out

bishop being lowkey confused because he’s never heard angel speak in anything below a booming laugh

on his way out, he’s congratulating ez one more time and comes so close to hitting your head on the door frame it’s not even funny 

well it is because ez is snorting in laughter but covering his mouth to not make too much noise

angel is just like YIKES good thing she wasn’t awake for that would never be able to live that one down

“and i can’t take her to this appointment, i already called felipe and he said he couldn’t this afternoon and”

“you need us to watch the little princess, you got it, mija” bishop assured, a reassuring smile on his face as he wrapped his arm around val, placing a soft kiss on her temple. “you know we’re always here to help with mia, no questions asked” the older man agreed, taking a wiggly mia from her arms and rubbing his mustache along her face to get her giggle filling the room. thanking him one last time, val made her next stop with her father giving him a greeting kiss on the cheek before going over the plan with him. “hey, apa. going to the doctors i”

“everything okay?” tranq questioned in a familiar fatherly tone, searching val’s face for any deception she may have shot his way. “yes, dad, i’m fine” she sighed out rolling her eyes “i’ll let you know what’s up after but i need you guys to watch mia. don’t be too hard on ez, okay?” she reminded gaining a groan for the large man as he nodded in relinquished agreement.

“okay, i’m going to go bye-bye now, bebita. you remember what we said our ranks were?” val questioned teasingly, knowing the men would get more than a kick out of hearing her little sing-songy voice. “first listen to mommy, then tata, nino and then daddy” mia announced proudly gaining a cheer from the older men. “that’s my girl”

“hey, didn’t know we were running a daycare now” angel chimmed in, smirking as mia turned in excitement and was now sprinting towards her uncle who readily picked her up. “and where is tio angel in the rank?” val coaxed playfully glaring at her brother in-law to which mia responded while wrapping her arms around his neck. “bottom of the list because he doesn’t know what dinner food is”

“okay now i can leave” the mother noted, not missing the chance to make another face at angel before beginning to move out of the clubhouse. on her way out, val crossed paths with ez who gave her a confused yet excited look. “hey, amor, what’s u-” before he could even finish his comment and lay a chaste kiss on his lips the president was already interrupting the interactions. “you’re on daddy duty, boy scout. get to it”

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

at first, getting everyone back to work was nearly impossible with the hustle and bustle of the favorite memeber of the reyes family. for a while, she was floating between the arms of the men walking in and out of the clubhouse once they heard her cries of joy emminating from the room. but after a few pushes from bishop, it got back to semi-normality as they passed mia onto ez before retreating to their previous position. with her little hand clinging against her father’s, ez and mia walked out into the front yard.

at first, it was ez allowing her to play around him as he worked on the bikes. at first it was beside him, then within his reach, next going to where he could see her, that’s as far as he told himself he would let her go. as long as he was in his sight, he was quick enough to go scoop her up if needed. that, however, didn’t take into consideration the club’s wild card; his brother. what it was that angel said was inconsequential, recently it always had a way to lead to a tense conversation. to lead to their voices rising more in frustration than anger but that was a nuance not yet acquired from the young toddler. from her perspective, she saw her dad and uncle fighting. might as well screaming, making the girl shift her view nervously. “first is mommy then tata” mia thought outloud, knowing now who she needed to go find to solve this problem. will good intentions in her heart, the little girl scampered up to her feet and made her way to the scrap yard.

although delayed, ez’s fatherly instincts were bringing him out of his argument with a single sound. more so the lack there of. as many parents knew, silence from a child usually meant somthing wasn’t quiet right causing his head to shoot up. his eyes darted across the front yard, almost automatically cursing out as he called her name. “mia” ez called out walking away from angel and into the empty space in front of him “mia, fuck where’s mia”
