A/N: this gif was the inspiration, even if it turned out a little different. 🤭 Oh, and um, there are tickles included. Sorry not sorry. It’s their flirt language. ^^
🔥 💧 ✨
“What do you want?”, Wade looked down at his smokin’ girlfriend next to him. Ember jumped up and down a little, clapping her petite hands together. The snack corner at the newly opened movie theater was an amazing place to be. Her eyes widened, fascinated by the variety of all the sweets, salty snacks and beverages - all elemental cuisine favorites were presented. The only snacks she was familiar with were sugar pops, bbq stix and mallows. Plus kol-nuts, exclusively delivered by her dad’s old shop. Oh and she tried that cutesy pink drink on one of their dates once too, but, well, it vaporized. Wade always joked, she was too hot to handle these. Yet, he was the one who got all pink and cuter by drinking that. She chuckled, when that memory came up.
“So, fireball?”
“Ey, water guy. Watch it.”
„The movie’s not gonna wait“
„Don’t rush me. We have plenty of time.“
At the end? She went for mallows and kol-nuts. He had chosen ice-cubes with a syrupy core as well as his all-time fav, the pink lemonade. They took their seats. Ember snuggled into her cropped hoodie, it dimmed her flames and Wade could easily rest his cheek on her head. The lights went out, the ads and trailers started.
„Hey!“, Ember hissed, trying to get her kol-nuts out of Wade’s reach.
„Oh, come on. Just one!“, he whispered back and tried to grab for the snack box again.
„No! If you want one, get one yourself“, Ember whispered back and hid the snacks on her other side.
„Please?“
„No“
„Pretty pleeeeease?!“
„Noho“
„This is so not cool“
„Are you crying?“
„No“
„Yeah, you are…“
„Does it work? Does it soften your heart a bit?“, Wade sniffed.
„Noho, now shush, or we will be banned from the movie before it. even. started.“, she hissed and the edges of her began to turn purple.
„You mean panned.“, he added dryly. Ember giggled, his favorite sound. He smiled, when her flames changed back to her soft orange again.
Wade finished his syrup-filled ice cubes quickly, so he had his lemonade only, with more than an hour of the movie left. Ember had her eyes locked on the big screen, fascinated by the action movie they’ve chosen today. So, all captivated by it, she noticed his sizzling hand too late. He grasped one of her kol-nuts successfully, and let it sink into his lemonade: „Fizzy edition“, he added.
„Oh-ho, don’t you dare…“, his lovely firecracker hissed, when he tried to grab another one: „Get your hands off of them!“
„But sharing is caring?“
„Stealing is not.“
„True but“
„No-ho but.“
„Oh, come on…“, he whispered sweetly, close to her ear.
„No“
„I know you love me… I know you want to share…“, he whispered, moving his hand away from the snack box: „Actually, I know how to convince you“, his hand was closer to her waist now. Her eyes widened, but it was too late. Wade’s fingertips, sizzling a little, began to tease her waist. Unfortunately for her, her fashion choices made her sensitive spots very accessible.
„Pffthaha… Wadehehe“, she giggled, as quietly as possible in this special situation.
„Can I get another kol-nut?“
„No! Stohop it.“ The little firelady curled forward, hiding her flame and giggles. Meanwhile, Wade chuckled, caressing her sides with soft touches, walking up to poke her armpit next. Poor Ember pressed her hands onto her mouth, squeaking into her lap. An action scene with loads of explosions was her safe haven after an eternity. She gasped, giggled and grasped his thigh, squeezing it knowingly, close to his knee.
„Wohowho, hold ohon“, he chuckled. A win. He stopped teasing her.
„Truce?“
„Truce“, Ember whispered back, relieved. She had a big smile on her face, during the rest of the movie. Still, playful sneaky Wade tried to get a hand on her kol-nut box, every now and then. She answered those movements always with a threatening hand, hovering over his thigh. He’d retaliate, chuckling, feeling the tiny bubbles floating through his body, whenever she was too close for his own good.

Ember refuses to admit that she likes it when Wade tickles her. But her vibrant emotions give it away. Wade is SOSOSO supportive when he figures it out, which ironically makes Ember feel more embarrassed. He only proceeds to wreck her with her explicit permission, much to Ember's flusterment (not a word, dude). He teases her with how beautiful and adorable and bright she is, and he's right; her light doubles it's glow when he tickles her
Moonshine was flooding the small apartment, Wade and Ember share since a couple of weeks. Ember was in her workshop corner. The tiny nook in the back of their living room had been perfect for it. The big window next to her desk offered enough light, day and night, for her crafting. She was also glowing by herself, fire creature benefits.
„Wade?“
„Hm?“
„What do you think of this one?“, she was holding a huge glass disk up into his direction.
„Uh-huh, nice one…“, he mumbled, only peeking shortly up. He had his eyes back on the screen in no time.
„Waaaade?“
„…Em...ber?“
„It’s supposed to be a birthday present for your mom.“
„Uhh… yeah?“
„I need you to be honest with me.“
„It’s a nice one…“, he mumbled, not looking.
„WADE! Focus, please.“
„I am focused.“, he told her, pointing on the tv screen. It was a special night for the WindBreakers-fans, there was an all night charity-tournament going on - LIVE. Wade had donated his ticket, so, the couch was his go-to place to watch this time. And Ember, well… she was in her design-tunnel, anxious, because crafting another gift for her mother-in-law was important to her. She wanted to do this right.
„Oh…“, her flames were turning purple at the edges, her temper kicking in. She tried to take a deep breath, and another… and another. She knew, her temper was a signal, that something was off. Wade had taught her that. She didn’t want to fail with this present… still, it wasn’t nice of him, not paying attention to her. Suddenly, her edges were purple again.
She’d put the fruit bowl/plate/disk-thing, she wasn’t even sure, what to call it, on her desk, sighing, still taking deep breathes. She hopped over the little wall, that secured her office nook from flooding, onto her fire-secured floaty, to move over to Wade - still ALL focused on the screen.
„Wade Ripple“, she whispered, dangerously low, incredibly close now.
„WHA! How?!“, Wade screeched, jumping up a little, eyes on his fiery lady now - little bubbles were sparkling over the left side of his body.
„Listen. To. Me.“, she whispered low and threatening: „If you don’t tell me, what you honestly think about my draft, like… now“
„…yeah?“, he gulped, already dripping a little on his side of the sofa.
„I will use a certain weakness of yours, to get the truth out of you.“
„No. No-ho, Ember, please“, he whined: „it’s only five more minutes to play, then there is a break between games, please?“, he tried to move a little further to the end of the sofa, but Ember followed his movements.
„So?“
„I… uh, it’s kinda pretty?“, he stammered, flustered and a little afraid.
„What shape has it?“
„Uh… it’s… a glass-ical shape?“, he tried to humor her, with a classical joke of his repertoire. He moved both his shoulders up and down a little, like he always did, when they had their goofy dance battles.
She giggled: „Don’t use your charm, jerk.“, her smile appeared and Wade could see her edges changing back from her purple to her sunset-orange.
„You’ll get another chance, because you’re cute.“, she giggled. His eyes crinkled, tears appearing.
„What color did I choose?“ Bummer.
He tried again: „The… glassiest of all?“
She sighed, giggling: „You-hu didn’t pay attention to me, at all, huh?“
Little bubbles streamed over his body, everywhere she was close enough, sizzling a bit. Wade, shook his head slightly: „No-hoho“, he gasped, when he felt her fingertips softly running over his side. Little bubbles streamed under the surface, while her touch was teasingly light above.
„Ehember, I-hihi am so sohorry.“, she was all over him - while her fingertips were floating over his sizzling skin, her lips were on his neck all of a sudden. Wade melted a little, because she kissed him. But, her flamin’ hot lips were licking over his sensitive neck, while he laughed his head off underneath her teasing touches: „Ah-are you ok?“
„Yehehes.“, he squeaked, when her fingertips crawled underneath his arms. Little steam-clouds arouse around them, while Ember couldn’t help herself. She giggled, full of joy, because Wade was so heavenly ticklish and he’d just let her do her thing here. But, her double tease was getting a little too much now for poor Wade. So, the only way he knew, that could stop her? He’d clasped his arms together, more steamy clouds were arousing around them, while he pulled her head up - to give her a huge smooch.
„Mhmhmember?“, lips on lips.
„Mhmmwade?“, he chuckled, pushing her a little away from him, his hands still on her cheeks, hers on his sides. (Still not off the hook)
„Could you show me your draft again, please?“
She sighed, nodding: „Be honest.“, she hurried onto her floaty again, and to her nook, holding the glass up, so he could see it: „Would your mom like this?“
„I… It’s… My mom will love it…“
„I can sense a ‚but‘ there.“
„Ember, I am sorry, but… what is it supposed to be?“
She looked at her piece, back at Wade and at her piece again, shaking her head in slight disbelieve. „I am sorry, Ember, it’s… I…“
„I don’t really know“, she whispered. And then? She burst out, laughing. All the anxiety was gone. She was so focused yet unsure before.
„Wait, wait, wait a second.“, he gasped: „You don’t know? You weren’t even sure yourself, but teased me because I didn’t know either?!“
„Uhm…“
„You. Get. Back. Here. Or I’ll come and get you. Choose.“
„B…but Wade, your game“
„I missed the last five minutes because of you“, he sighed, a wide grin appeared on his face: „Guess I have to miss the first five of the new game too.“
Wade and Ember are relaxing in their shared apartment after a long day of work, just talking as they usually did until Wade brings something up from his childhood that sends the flame into fight or flight.
Day 5: "I'm not ticklish."
The door clicked softly as Ember closed it behind her as she let her bag slip off her shoulder and onto the floor next to the coat wrack. It’s been a long day, but nothing beats knowing she was actually doing something useful with her life, as well as being happy with where she was. It had been about a year since she and Wade had moved away from Element city. During that time, she went through a lot of emotions, things she had never felt before- but Wade was always there to comfort her. He always knew exactly what to say. It was almost irritating sometimes. With a soft sigh, she sinks into the couch, letting her eyes close for just a moment as she takes in the peaceful quiet around her. Eventually, Wade came from around the corner with a welcoming smile. He sat on the cushion next to her, pressing a kiss on her cheek as a wordless “welcome home”,. A small trail of steam was left behind as he pulled away, a small hiss filling the air as the waterboy threw his arms around her neck. Wade had always been affectionate, but after meeting The fiery young woman, it almost seemed like he never wanted to let go. Though she would never admit it, Ember felt the same. She had a good childhood and her parents were loving, but after years of being treated so differently by everyone but them, it felt nice to have a person love her so dearly for just being her. She sighed softly, an amused smile pulling on her lips as she looked down at Wade; his head resting on her shoulder, eyes shut with a content , Her arm wrapped around her boyfriend, hand gently patting his shoulder.
“Wade. I have to get dinner started soon.” he just shook his head, looking up at her while keeping his place on her shoulder.
“Nope! I'm taking care of that tonight. All you have to do is relax.” Ember hummed in acknowledgment, draping her other arm across the other side of the couch. Somehow, in between the silence, the topic of childhood had been brought up. now , as they sat face to face with their legs intertwined, storys from the past resurfaced. In her opinion, Ember’s own childhood, although cherished, was rather uneventful. Her life was all about family history and the shop and she was satisfied with that. Believe it or not, working in retail got you plenty of stories to laugh over. Wade, on the other hand, found them incredible. Even if it felt like nothing, every little detail was important. He had to laugh when she mentioned how rowdy children could be.
“Heh- mom could never take me and my siblings anywhere. We’d cause quite the scene- mostly Lake and I chasing each other around until one of us fell and started crying..” Wade chuckled sheepishly while Ember only shook her head. It was hard to see Wade as a trouble maker, but it make sense in some odd way.
“Your poor mother.” Ember added lightheartedly, making Wade laugh.
“Oh you though that was bad? The real wars started whenever we would get home. Alan was almost always the one to start it. He would claim wed been annoying him all day and would warn us to watch ourselves when we got in the house. The second we did- he’d chase lake and I down and tickle us to tears.” ember went stiff. Oh flame- so this is where this conversation was going. She tried to laugh but found it came out too awkward to not say anything.
“Hah.. yeah- i bet that was funny-” wade just continued.
“For them maybe! I was the main victim cuz they said my reactions were the best.” little bibbles started to form around his cheeks and the water begain to heat up, the aquatic people’s way of blushing, as he scratched the back of his neck.
“They always found some way to embress me. How about you? Your parents ever do anything like that?” as he contined, the usually hotheadded flame could feel her cheeks start to burn. She haddnt been tickled much in her years of living, but it was enough to know. It was embarrassing- and cutesy, and childish. It always made her stomach twist when she heard the word. She definitely could not talk about it as casually as wade did. Through gritted teeth, she shook her head.
“Nope. but they gave good hugs-” she tried moving the conversation along but wade just tilted his head, tears almost forming in his dazzling blue eyes.
“Your parents never tickled you..? How did you bond-?”
“W-we bonded- im- uhm.. Just- im not-that.” she replied a little too quickly, her flame flashed for a moment as her face blushed a dark purple before she shrank back, covering her mouth with her hands. The man looked her up and down, as if suearching for something in her expression. His eyes flashed as confusion turned to admiration.
“You cant say ‘Tickle?’ Ember. You must be at lest a little if the word alone makes you blush so much~.” He teased gently, scooting closer, making his girlffriend scoot backwards until her back hit the arm rest.
“No! Wade! Im not ticklish! And ill prove it!” her voice faltered alightly at she sat up tall,glaring at him while holding her arms out by her sides so she sat in a “T” shape. Wade looked into her eyes again. As much as he wanted to , he wouldn't act unless Ember was completely comfortable with him touching her. As if she was reading his mind, she nodded, practically challenging him. With a sigh, his gentle smile turned mischievous as he rose his hands up to her face, his fingers wriggling menacingly before latching onto her sides. Embers confidence failed as her arms ran to grab Wades wrists. Her eyes shut as her face turned to the side. Wade slowed down, almost stopping without releasing her.
"Too much? Are you okay?" Ember only scoffed.
"Please! I hah-Hardly feel a thing!" She was clearly lying. She'd always been bad at it- that was one of the millions of things Wade loved about her. She could hide her emotions well enough, but when she was distracted, everything spilled out of tiny cracks in her demeanor. Wade's smile widened as he pulled her into his lap, focusing towards her stomach now. Her feet kicked against the padded couch cushions as titters slowly began breaking through her breathing. The fingers against her belly turned to gentle scratching against the bare part of her midsection, a warm breath tickling down her neck.
"It's okay, dear. You can let go." Wade whispered, causing her titters to turn to soft laughter, her hands still holding onto his wrists. She never could hide anything from him - he made her feel safe, and loved. He drew her in and the harder she pushed, the gentler he came back.
"WADE- GEHAHA-" she blubbered out as her boyfriend used his dull nails to play over the middle of her stomach, using slow, circular motions only to quickly spider up to her ribs before the pattern repeated. He coos softly, hugging her as he buries his face into the crook of her neck. Tears run down his cheeks, fizzling out in the fire below.ember giggled with every tear. Not only because it was wholesome, but simply because it tickled. Screw all the "you'll grow out of it" garbage she told herself. If she didn't know better, her sensitivity had just heightened. She shook her head, almost used to his tears by now.
"Oh wade.. you're so sensitive."
"I-I can't help it! I love you so much - and you're just adorable!" He sniffled. Ember cupped his cheek, watching how the poor practically melted into her.
"I know, wade… I love you too." She whispered, reaching up to press her lips against his. Their hearts fluttered in unison as they trapped each other in their hold, letting their eyes flutter closed. Before long, they had to pull away, feeling dizzy as they fell into each other again. They'd worry about dinner later. For now, it was just them, in a world of their own.
I LIED. I watched Elemental for like- the third time? While writing this. Their love story is genuinely one of the sweetest relationships ever portrayed. I'm planning on writing a whole lot more for them but I'm trying (and failing) to stick to a theme.
