Rafael Barba x Reader. For summer smut bingo - squirting. Obvs, NSFW/18+ for smut. CW: p in v sex, fingering, dirty talk. @madpanda75 here’s that fic based off that gif.
Based off the Voire Dire series - a peak into the relationship. Set around part 3 but before the ending (spoiler: where it’s hinted they’ll be engaged).
WC: 1246 or something around that.

“So what are your plans for tonight?” Marjorie asked, hopping on your desk. She bit off the end of a red vine.
“Nothing much, just a movie and dinner with Rafi.” You replied as you looked up to her from your computer. “We both have been working so late these last two weeks, we’ve hardly seen each other.”
“So Netflix and chill?” Marjorie replied. A small smile twitched across her face.
You rolled your eyes. “Something like that.”
**
You snuggled up next to Rafael, as you both watched the movie. His arm wrapped around you and you leaned into his embrace, your head resting on his shoulder.
“Babe, can you please hand over my wine?” You asked, your eyes never leaving the screen.
“Of course.” Rafael replied. As he was bringing the wine over to you, you happened to reach over to grab some popcorn that was made earlier and your hands collided. Red wine spilled all over your abdomen and lap. You let out a swear and jumped up, which then knocked the popcorn over, spilling onto the floor.
It was Rafael’s turn to swear. He reached for the remote to pause the movie and squatted down to pick up the popcorn. “Go get clean, I’ve got this.”
You mumbled a thanks and dashed to your bedroom to strip. You changed into an oversized t-shirt, not bothering with bottoms and then made your way to the laundry room to treat your clothes.
When you reappeared in the living room, you noted that Rafael had refreshed your glass and the popcorn had been cleared.
You sat back down on the couch and Rafael wrapped his arm around you, bringing you close to him. As the movie continued, you absentmindedly traced concentric circles along his thigh. You then became acutely aware of Rafael’s hand sliding up the side of your shirt and then back down again. You let out a small hum and Rafael turned to you. His piercing green eyes were blown with lust and he bent his head down to capture your lips with his. You leaned up into the kiss and moved so you were sitting on his lap, each of your legs outside his. The kiss intensified, with Rafael’s tongue pressing against the entrance of your mouth. You parted your lips eagerly, kissing him deeply, slipping your tongue into his mouth. You could taste the scotch he had been having and whatever made him distinctively him. You were nearly dizzy from the kiss and his cologne added to that sensation. Rafael ran his fingers along your thighs and you pressed against him, desperate for more.
It took you by slight surprise then when he turned you around, so your back was to his. You could feel his cock pressing against you and you reveled in the fact that you were giving him this reaction.
Rafael’s hands went up to your tits, rolling, pulling, and squeezing your nipples between his fingers. You rested your head on his shoulder and shuddered as his beard prickled against your sweet spot. His lips found purchase along your neck and his hands moved from your breasts to where you were most needy. He spread your thighs and rubbed you through your panties which were already soaked with arousal. He pushed the ruined material to the side, rubbing your bundle of nerves before moving down to tease your dripping pussy.
You let out a wrecked moan as he set a repetitive pace, teasing you. Your hips began to take a life of their own as they rolled on their own accord. Rafael sunk his fingers all the way in - two, not one and you let out a cry at the feeling. “Just wait until it’s my cock.” He rumbled against your ear. One of your hands covered his as he fingerfucked you, and the other gripped his arm.
You were soaked, his fingers making obscene squelching sounds as he continued. “Oh God, oh God.” You chanted breathlessly.
“Not God.” Rafael rasped. “Just me.” He set off a brutal pace, thrusting harder and deeper. Another finger slid in and you shuddered, letting out a deep groan. Rafael curled his fingers, finding that sweet spot and stayed there.
Your legs began to shake and your eyes slammed shut as suddenly you stiffened. Your orgasm exploded over and like a dam bursting, you squirted all over his hand and lap. Hearing you cry out his name only encouraged Rafael and he resumed his pace, requesting another from you.
“Otra vez.” Rafael commanded. Your body complied with his request as you squirted again.
“Muy bien.” Rafael praised. “Such a good girl for me.”
You shuddered again and when Rafael removed his fingers, you let out a whine of disappointment. You shifted around to face Rafael who was licking his fingers. You took his hand and stuck it in your own mouth, finishing the job.
You then scooted back on his thighs, just so you could work the zipper of his dark denim. You reached in and pulled his cock out of his pants and boxers. Rafael groaned, watching under heavy lidded eyes as you stroked him. You swung your leg over him again and guided his cock into you.
You both groaned at the sensation as he filled you to the hilt. You shifted and reached for the hem of your shirt, yanking it off you. Your hands were on Rafael encouraging him to do the same. He tugged off his shirt and his hands gripped your hips. You braced your hands onto his shoulder and began to ride him, craving more.
“Ah, fuck your pussy feels so good.” Rafael crooned. His head dipped to your breasts and you groaned as latched onto one, sucking.
You moaned your approval and began to ride Rafael more fervently. You both chased your orgasms, with Rafael thrusting up in long, hard strokes. You reached down and began to rub your clit. Rafael swatted your hand away and took over. You fell forward, crashing your lips against his. Your nails dug into the tops of his shoulders and your pussy clenched around his cock.
“I’m coming!” You cried out, breaking the kiss.
“Come for me.” Rafael encouraged. His voice was husky. He pulled your face down to crash his lips against yours once more.
The kissing was sloppy, mimicking the sloppiness of Rafael’s thrusts. As your orgasm swept you, Rafael felt his burst. “Shit, I’m coming too!”
“Give it to me!” You cried out, as you rode out the remains of your orgasm. Rafael thrusted up once, hard and came. A string of Spanish obscenities left his mouth as he painted your walls with his cum.
You were both still, catching your breaths, willing your heartbeats to slow down. Rafael wrapped his arms around you, holding you as both recovered.
Rafael pressed a kiss to your sweaty forehead and then to your lips. “That was fun.”
“Yeah, way better than watching a movie.” You laughed as you eased yourself off of him.
“I’m going to go to the bathroom.” You remarked. “But maybe we can take this to the bedroom. Mind turning everything off here?”
Rafael nodded as he stood, tucking his now softened cock away. “Will do, cariño. That is a way better plan than any movie.”
You blew a kiss over your shoulder and made your way to the bathroom. You couldn’t wait to see what else the night had in store.

You walked out on the balcony of the beach house in the Hamptons and took in a deep breath taking in the salty sea air, the sun radiating onto your skin. You lent onto the rail and your eyes wondered, looking out into the water at the swimmers and families that were scattered in and out of it as far as the eye could see. You hadn’t realised anyone had walked out to you till Sonny kissed your shoulder and you looked over at him with a big smile, Sonny leaning over to peak your lips softly,
“They are almost here. Amaro’s flight left late, he and Barba had to get a new car hire cause they missed the time for the first one”
Just as Sonny finished his sentence, car horn deeps rang through the air and you rolled your eyes, you both laughing knowing who it was. You both made your way down stairs and as you opened the front door, Nick and Rafael were getting out of the car. Nick made a bee line for you, it been nearly four weeks since he was in town last and you pounced on him, your lips meeting briefly before you wrapped your arms around each other,
“It’s so good to you, mi Amor. I’ am never staying away this long again”
“That’s what you said last time” you kissed his cheek pulling away from him and he laughed.
“I know, Barba said he had no work for me, but I think he is keeping me from you” Nick winked at you and you giggled looking at Rafael who rolled his eyes.
You bounced over to Rafael, his arms now going around you and he kissed you on your cheek almost on your lips,
“I heard it the whole way down here. No one stopped you from coming, Amaro”
“Yeah yeah, I’ll have to work something out. Two nights isn’t enough to fully enjoy myself” Nick winked at you again and he and Sonny started laughing as Nick walked towards him giving him a hand shake and hug, you looked up at Rafael grinning with his eye brows raised shaking his head.
You guys had decided to get food delivered and you went down to the beach to eat it, enjoying each other’s company, talking, laughing and eating. A cold breeze blew off the ocean and you shivered,
“Let’s head back” Rafael smiled over at you with a wink.
When you got back to the house, you went up stairs grabbing a light cardigan and making your way back down. As you got back to the last step you saw all three men standing in the kitchen huddled together, with smiles on their faces,
“What’s going on?” you frowned your brows walking towards them.
They all looked over at you, all their eyes filled with desire and Nick walked up to you, hooking an arm around your waist pulling you into him, your hands going to rest on his chest and then Sonny came up behind you, his hands running down over your shoulders,
“We were just talking about you, mi Hermosa. How much we all want you”
You grinned, your body filling with arousal and your eyes shut slightly when you felt Sonny’s lips on your neck and Nick started to push his hips into you, his hands running down your body. Sonny started to push his hardening cock into your ass, when Rafael walked up to you all, grabbing your hand and pulling it to his crotch, resting it there, as his cock twitched and hardened against your palm,
“Where do you want us Amor?” Rafael purred and you caught your breath when he pushed your hand into his hard length again “And how?”
You looked up into Nick’s eyes, then looked over into Rafael’s and then turning your head to look back at Sonny, a big smirk pulling to your face. You turned around, your back now towards Nick, his hands running up and down your sides as you started to undress Sonny. Your hands rested on his bare chest and you stood up on your tippy toes peaking his lips and asking him to go and sit on the stairs. You then turned to Rafael making quick work of undressing him, your hands running up and down his shoulders and arms telling him to go and wait with Sonny, after another quick kiss for him.
Nick’s eyes locked with yours as you worked to undress him and then he quickly undressed you. You grabbed Nick’s hand and turned to see Rafael kneeling between Sonny’s knees, their lips locked and hands all over each other. Nick let go of your hand and moved to step behind you, his warm solid body pressed into your back, he reached around running his fingers through your sleek folds, his other resting on your belly and he left open mouth kisses along your shoulder, one of your hands reached behind you, wrapping your hand around him, stroking him as you watched Rafael and Sonny.
Rafael finally broke away from Sonny, getting up off his knees and walking towards you, both of his hands cupping your chest groping them and tugging on your nipples. Nick gave Rafael a look, and slowly they both started to walk you towards Sonny, who was lazily fisting himself while his eyes were glued on you all.
Rafael walked away from you after kissing you deeply and walking over to Sonny. You pulled away from Nick and walked to stand between Sonny’s legs, dropping down on your knees in front of him on the step below. You pushed his hand away, wrapping your own hand around him and taking him into your mouth, relaxing your throat taking him as far as you could, his head dropping back, resting on a step behind him. Nick came up behind you, dropping to his knees, his hands going to your hips and sliding into you in one go, moaning around Sonny, sending vibrations through him and he bucked up into your mouth, making you gag slightly groaning.
As you worked on Sonny with your mouth and Nick got into a hard, deep rhythm with you, you reached up taking Rafael’s hard weeping cock into your hand, his precum covering it. Nick started to thrust into you harder, his grip on your hips tightening, your walls fluttering around him as your coil wound tighter. You reached up with your free hand cradling Sonny’s balls, squeezing them between your fingers and he started buck up harder.
You looked up through your eye lashes, and moaned around Sonny again seeing him and Rafael heavily making out again. Nick’s balls were slapping into your ass, and one of his hands creeped down between your legs, rolling your clit, sending sparks through you. You grazed your teeth lightly over Sonny, as you made your way back up to his tip, Sonny groaned loud into Rafael’s mouth, his hand coming to the back of your head pushing you down on him, his hair tickling your nose, his other hand going to cradle Rafael’s balls.
Sonny broke his kiss with Rafael and a loud groan ran from his mouth as he came down your throat, his hand balling into a fist in your hair. You swallowed everything up that he gave you and pulled off him with a pop, your eyes slamming shut and moans escaping you as you came hard around Nick. Your hand was still working feverishly over Rafael, his balls still in Sonny’s hand and Nick pounding into you hard, but sloppy.
Nick chocked out your name, his hands squeezing your hip coming deep inside you, just as Rafael lent down grabbing your face in his big hands pulling you too him kissing you rough and deep. You felt Nick pull out his softening cock and Rafael grunted into your mouth when you felt ropes of his hot cum land on your hand, arm and running onto Sonny’s leg dripping onto the floor. Rafael broke the kiss, breathless and he covered your face in kisses, before he moved away from you, Sonny then grabbed your face, kissing you sweetly and then kissing your forehead, Nick peppering your back and shoulders with kisses,
“You did amazing our love” Nick muttered into your skin.
“See what you miss out on by staying away” Rafael smirked at Nick.
You giggled to yourself standing up and turning to face Nick biting your bottom lip, Rafael walking up behind you wrapping his arms around you and resting his chin on your shoulder. Nick shot Rafael a dirty look, winking at you and he walked up to you grabbing your hands, bringing them up to his lips, kissing over your fingers,
“I think it’s about time you all come out to see me, I have plenty of room now” Nick saw your face light up and the excitement in your eyes.
“I want to come and see you” you smiled big.
“You’re not going by yourself” Rafael shot back at you.
Sonny came up wrapping his arms around you and Rafael, a big smile also on his face,
“Guess we better book tickets Rafi, we’re going on a holiday.”
Warnings: flirty and somewhat dom!Rafael, implied smut.

“I don’t know why your yelling at me?”
“You were somewhere I told you not to be” Rafael yelled down the phone.
“Rafael, your not my boss, I don’t need to answer to you, thankfully. Liv gave us orders; we did what our sergeant told us and now I have been asked to fill you in. Don’t shoot the messenger”
“You know that answer isn’t good enough”
“Well, it’s going to have to be Rafael” you sassed back.
You heard Rafael sigh over the phone and you giggled louder than you meant to, thinking about him pinching the bridge of his nose in frustration,
“You think this is funny detective?”
“Not really counselor, no” you held back another giggle “Why are you so mad?”
“Why can’t you do what you’re told?”
“Cause I like to see how far I can push it”
The conversation took a sharp turn and you had to try not to smile wide to let on what was going on, on the other end of the phone,
“You need to be taught a lesson, Y/N”
“Think you can do that for me Rafael?” you purred down the phone.
“You know I can” he answered back “You’ve been a naughty girl not doing what you’ve been asked to do, you know what that means don’t you?”
Heat swept over you and you squeezed your thighs together being more turned on than what you should have been by his tone,
“Think you can be done here in an hour?” you muttered, chewing your lip.
“You better have a coffee because once I get started with you, it will take more than an hour to get what you want”
Warnings: talks of a 3 way relationship (wrote this a long time before the other one in bingo) episode based, protective Rafael and Nick, fluff.

The heat of the late afternoon sun and the tension was thick in Rafael’s office. Everyone else had left and it was just you, Nick and Rafael. Nick was standing at the end of Rafael’s desk with his arms crossed over his body, his brows frowned, Rafael looking very much the same standing behind his desk, his hands on his hips and his brows frowned at you,
“You two are really going to carry on like this? Liv and Brian will be there. Amanda and Fin too” you tried to reason.
“Have you heard his stuff?” Nick spat “What it’s all about? what he is? what he causes? Y/N-”
“Nick, it’s my job- Our job” you raised your voice.
“Neither of us are going, we can’t keep you safe” Rafael added.
“I’ am going with four other people, Rafael” you crossed your arms over your body.
“You are so stubborn” Nick muttered.
“Last time I checked it was something both of you liked about me” you shot back, both of them raising their eye brows at you “Give me one good reason why?”
“Because we care about you” Nick shot back.
“And because we asked you not too” Rafael looked straight at you.
You looked between them both and then rolled your eyes sighing. Both men walked to you, each grabbing a hand. Nick took your hand in both of his, his thumbs rubbing over the back of it, Rafael brought your hand up to his lips and kissed your knuckles,
“Baby, do you get why we feel like this?” Nick whispered.
“We aren’t doing this for any other reason, other than the fact that we love and care about you” Rafael pleaded with you.
“I know. I know, and your both right. But you both can’t keep doing this. None of us are ready to go public yet, and if you two keep stopping me from doing what we need to because your worried about keeping me safe, someone is going to click on and I’ am not willing to say that I’ am only with one of you just to keep it hushed up”
“We know” Nick looked down.
“We don’t want to keep it a secret for much longer either” Rafael lent over and peaked your lips.
“Let’s not worry about that tonight” Nick grinned down at you, his hand coming up to your face, resting on your cheek and he then lent over and peaked your lips “We are going to take you out for dinner”
“And then go back to mine for dessert” Rafael smirked.
Warnings: talks of a break up and sweet and Fluffy Nick and Rafael.

It’s not how you had planned your life to be, yet here you were, your whole life had fallen apart and you didn’t know what to do. You should have taken time off, but it was the middle of a big trial that you and Nick cracked the case and were the arresting officers. Nick and Rafael had picked up that something was wrong, although you were excellent on the stand during court, you had been turning up late to work, bags under your eyes, your eyes red and blood shot, your hair thrown up in whatever way and your cloths clean but not ironed.
Nick was waiting for you on the steps of the court house, when you came bolting up the stairs, he could see your face was red and your hair wasn’t even done,
“Y/N, what’s going on?”
“Nothing” you snapped back and he saw the tears come to your eyes “Let’s go, Rafael will be pissed if I’ am late again”
You did your job on the stand, keeping your cool during cross, but Nick and Rafael both noticed that you had been crying when you walked to the stand. Nick was surprised that you didn’t come back to the gallery and when court was done, he and Rafael made the quick walk to the station to try and find you when you didn’t answer your phone,
“Do you know what’s going on? I have never seen her like this before” Rafael looked over at Nick as they rode up in the lift.
“No, she wouldn’t tell me this morning” They both rounded into the bullpen, it well after everyone’s shift. Nick saw your bag sitting under your desk “She’s still here”
Nick walked off, Rafael following close behind making their way to the small gym near the on-call room. Nick saw you through the slightly open blinds and he stopped in his tracks, Rafael almost bumping into him and they both watched on. Your hair was up in a messy bun, your button down open to your tank top, you had no shoes on punching and kicking into the bag, it wasn’t till you turned when the bag swung that they both saw your face, bright red, you biting your lip and tears gushing from your eyes.
They both rushed for the door, Nick opened it and they walked in just as you started to punch the bag over and over sobbing hard. Rafael rushed over to you first, grabbing you and you fell into his arms sobbing into his jacket and you sunk to your knees, Rafael moving down to the floor with you, holding you tight to his chest. Nick ran to the small fridge grabbing a bottle of water, rushing back dropping to his knees, pulling off the gloves and handing you the water.
You took the water from Nick sipping on it slowly, Rafael ran his hand up and down your back and Nick ran his up and down your thigh. The tears finally slowed and you took a deep breath sniffing and looking between them both,
“I’ am so sorry” you wiped your eyes with the back of your hand.
“Why are you sorry?” Rafael kissed your head.
“You haven’t done anything to be sorry for” Nick squeezed your thigh “What’s going on, Y/N? you haven’t been yourself”
“Everything” you sighed “For years, I dealt with it. Put a smile on my face and then just like that, I’ am left to pick myself up, again. I have to find somewhere to live, I’ve been staying in an hotel, most of my stuff is in storage. It’s a mess”
Nick looked at Rafael, both their brows frowning. Rafael titled your head up with his pointer finger and you looked into his green eyes, both of Nick’s hands now on your thigh,
“Did he put his hands on you?” Rafael tried to hide the snarl in his voice.
“No. Just broke me”
Rafael pulled you into him wrapping you in his arms and Nick grabbed your hand squeezing it and kissing the back of it,
“Come and live with me” Nick smiled at you “I have 3 rooms, would be nice to come home to someone. We can split everything”
“You’re really sweet Nick, but living with me and working with me? What if we fight”
“You don’t fight with Amaro” Rafael laughed “You bat your eye lashes and he gives you whatever you want”
“You’re one to talk, Barba” Nick shot back at Rafael, Rafael rolling his eyes back “Y/N, you don’t need to put yourself back together. Let us do it” Nick’s hand went to your cheek, his thumb on your chin.
“For once I agree with him” Rafael winked at you “You’re not alone hermosa. He was a jerk. Amaro and I want to be there for you, to look after you” Rafael pushed your hair out of your face “We love you Y/N, you’re one of the best things that has happened to me”
“Me too” Nick cut in.
You looked between them both, smiled small and then hugged them both,
“Are you sure you’re happy to live with me?” you looked at Nick and he nodded back “Will you come and visit?” you looked at Rafael,
“Whenever you want me too” Rafael smiled
“Just bat your eye lashes” Nick winked as he got to his feet, grabbing your hand pulling you up to your feet, you then helping Rafael to his,
“What do you say to beer and pizza? Our treat” Rafael grinned.
“And you come home with me tonight” Nick smiled.
You hooked your arms around their necks pulling them both in for another hug, Nick’s hand going to the small of your back and Rafael’s on your hip,

Drabble. Rafael Barba x Reader. CW: bratting. Also CW: mentions of having children/being a parent. WC:225
**
“Can you please bring that box in amor?” You called out to Rafael. “It has all the kitchenware.”
Rafael nodded. Having two children and one on the way meant moving out of the city and to the outer boroughs, to a bigger space with a yard. It was moving in day and there was a lot to do. Additionally, Lucia, Rafael’s mom was coming into town from Florida and you wanted to have the house all set up perfectly.
“Mami, can we go play outside?” Your children looked up at you, eyes eager and pleading.
“Yes, take your jackets and stay where your father and I can see you.” You replied.
The children ran outside, their shrieks echoing. You went to pick up a box when Rafael came over and bent down, picking it up instead.
“Where do you want this one?” Rafael asked.
“That one goes to the kids’ room.” You replied. Rafael nodded and leaned over to press a kiss to your lips. After the kiss, you patted him on the cheek and told him "good boy".
Rafael got very quiet and whispered, "What did you just say?"
You swallow hard. "I love you?"
Rafael looked at you, his normally bright eyes were dark and stormy. He looked around and pulled you in with his free arm.
You came to the surface of the water, blinking your eyes till they were clear enough to see Rafael wiping his face dry. His eyes met yours and a big smile spread across his face. He made his way towards you, both arms going around you and you wrapped your legs around him, both your naked bodies pressed together, as he started to walk you around the water,
“Thank you, mi Vida, for planning this”
“Of course, Rafi, it’s been a long time coming. I just can’t believe I had you talk you into it” you giggled.
“I know mi Amor, but it’s summer and it’s been busy”
“Rafi” you grabbed his cheeks, pushing his head back so he would look at you “If the DA’s office and Liv can’t handle us being away for one week” you raised and eye brow and he nodded back “And besides, look at this place- Rafi we have our own pool”
“We do” Rafael smirked as he started to walk you both to the edge of the pool, pushing you up against it.
His hands moved from your waist to come up to cup your breasts, his hips pressing into you. Your hands came up to thread into his wet hair scrapping them across his sculp. In a heartbeat Rafael grabbed your hips, pulling you away from the wall and walking you both to the stairs. As you got to them, you pulled out of his embrace, swimming to the stairs and standing on the second one so you were out of the water. Rafael came up behind you, his fingers brushing through your lower lips, playing with them till they started to cover in your wet.
Rafael stood up behind you, his hand going to the middle of your back and he pushed you forward, you landing flat on your hands, and he slid up into you. He gave you both a minute before he rolled his hips up into you in a slow and steady pace, one of his hands still in the middle of your back and his other going around to your clit rubbing it in time with his thrusts. You fell onto your elbows and your moans started to fill the outdoor area, your coil winding tighter and tighter,
“Yes Rafi, like that, you feel amazing” you panted.
Rafael started to pound into you, the hand from your back now on your hip slamming you back into him. Your head dropped down and your eyes slammed shut when your coil snapped, your release flooding your body. Rafael’s thrusted into you feverishly, his balls slapping into you before a loud grunt and your name spilled from his mouth and he came deep inside you. Rafael pulled out, turned you to face him, both your chests heaving as he wrapped his arms around you, kissing you deeply.
“That was amazing” Rafael muttered into your lips “I like this whole holiday thing”
You giggled pulling back from him, wrapping your arms around his neck,
“So, we can do this again next summer?”
“As long as we have our own pool, you’ll get no objection from me”
