Hope you enjoy the fluff, bai!
Three years later
"OI FATHANDS" I sighed, digging fingers deep into my temples. I loved her, but goddamn she got on my nerves. "What was that runt?"
She pouted at the hated nickname. Cutie. It might be a little mean, but Fathands? Really?
She skipped over to me, ignoring the glances from civilians who could swear they had seen someone that moved just like that hooded girl; it was just too damn bad they couldn't see our faces. She looked me in the eyes and turned up those damn puppy dog eyes. She held out a belt with this skull belt buckle (What was up with this obsession with belts?) and whispered "Could I pretty please have this maybe?" It was always so funny when she begged for stuff; she knew I couldn't refuse here even without those puppy eyes. I cut off the chuckle so I could lean in for a kiss. "Of course baby". She smirked at that, those red eyes seeming to flash like they did whenever she got what she wanted. A shiver ran up my spine at the sudden (but not unwanted) memory of what she had wanted last night. She didn't end up sleeping at all. Sneaky bitch never gave up. I stared (never was a subtle girl) as her hips swayed over to the counter and I let out a breath I didn't know I was holding when she got engaged in the conversation. Rest time.
I smirked, she was my beautiful girlfriend but everyone (EVERYONE) needed rest from that psycho bitch at one point during a day with the nutter. The smirk only widened as the obviously terrified counter girl flinched as Jinx got more and more animated with the exchange, the poor girl must've asked about the belt obsession the little minx had. I was stunned out of my reverie with a slap to the ass? What idiot didn't notice the gauntlets on my back that ma- Oh. It was Cupcake. "Hey Cupcake, wassup?" The brunette just turned around and grinned at my girlfriend. "Only she could scare someone into submission talking about belts…". I chuckled at that. She knew her well. "Yeah, after last night she demanded a shopping trip…something about her winning the duel, I wasn't really listening". I was intentionally ribbing the Sheriff and it worked, a blush crept up her cheeks as she remembered exactly what I meant when I talked about winning duels. Her gaze left me and swung to my girlfriends…ass? Couldn't be. Not even after all this time could she have allowed herself no walls up while in public. Not even with me and the runt. But it obviously was as I noticed the blush only deepened and she turned back to me, eyes half lidded by what must've been some POWERFUL images. "So Cupcake, I should be mad that you were just eyeing out my baby so thoroughly" The Sherriff took a step back, obviously frightened at the "should" bit. "But something tells me you could make it up to me?" My eyebrows shot up provocatively at that. She giggled (WHAT?) and winked at me. "Keep trying Vi, I don't think I'll ever tire of it and eventually you might just get me". I grinned despite myself; Cupcake had really let herself go after that day. That day…
Blackness retreated from the corners of my vision. When had I fallen asleep? The answer rushed back to me after noticing the cold hard ground. I must've passed out in stress. The goddamn torture chamber had suddenly got really loud, then when quiet as a mouse. What the fuck had happened to Jinx. I snapped my eyes up to the lock on my door and flinched as I noticed there was no lock. Or a door. But there was a distinctively crazy rocketeer standing in the wreckage of the cells. I grinned; the crazy bitch must've escaped and woken me up with an explosion. What a sweetie. She skipped over to me and for once, I allowed her to support me up (I am not a waking up kind of gal) and walk me out of this mess. I leant in to whisper in her ear "You are amazing", she just smiled that crazy smile and kept on walking. She however steered clear of the exit and headed to the torture room. Hmm. What had she done to Caitlyn I wonder. Well, I soon found out and had to hold back the laughter that threatened to burst out of my as far passive expression. She was tied up like Jayce had been on that day, ropes serving not to contain but to expose her more (ringing breasts and such…basically just exaggerating any womanly curves she had).As my gaze drifted southwards I noticed she was…in the mood. I just chuckled and shook my head, what had Jinx done while I was out of it? "Look Fathands"
I quickly turned around; there was an edge to her voice I hadn't heard yet. She was grimacing, whatever she had to say was weighing her mind down something wicked. "I hate the bitch, but you always loved h-"
"No I just had a cru-"
She cut off my cut off. "Don't!"
I sighed. She saw right through me. "You love her and while you guys obviously just fell out and I could totally just ignore it and we could leave and stuff-"
I crinkled my nose at her weird way of using ten thousand and's every sentence when she was nervous. English plox. "And as much as I hate to say it" The grimace continued to widen. What was she saying?
"You guys are going to solve your shit before we can happen Fathands"
Well.
Shit.
"But Ji-"
"Don't but me Fatty…" A sly grin took over the scowl ruling her face. "But you can butt her for the next hour and I won't mind as long as I can watch" A lecherous grin took over the sly one, and her eyes wiggled provocatively at the terrible joke. Sigh.
As always (somehow) she was right, not even I was heartless enough to just cut off the ties I had to Caitlyn. I stared at the Sherriff, suddenly gripped by nervousness that even now she wouldn't accept me. Sigh. Just like old times. Her (recently dyed) blue hair framing her face, but there was that little bit that always fell out of her fringe and hung out the left side of her face. I steeled myself and leant forwards to tuck the bit of hair back behind her ear. She blinked herself awake at the contact and glanced upwards at me, fear seeming to grip her. I knew now that it wasn't fear of the situation, but the same fear that I myself was currently wrestling with. Almost. Jinx had forever changed me already and we'd only met recently. Crazy bitch had something about her that just…fucked with normal logical people. This was it. I had to let go of every emotion and allow myself to say what was needed. Fear.
Breath out.
Self-confidence.
Breath in.
Anger.
Breath out. Lo-affection.
Breath in. She was watching me intently; steel that wasn't present earlier glinting in her eyes. At least that made two of us. I leant forward and spoke the three hardest words I have ever said (but not ever will…).
"I…-"
She flinched at my hesitation. Fuck, tears starting gathering in her eyes and I still didn't have the strength for this. Fuck…I suck so m-
I felt a cold sensation enclose around my hand and looked back to see Jinx staring me in the eyes, she had grabbed my hand for support. No one's ever done that before. It seems stupid, but that action and the lov-affection in her eyes gave me the strength I needed. I looked back to Caitlyn with conviction that I had never felt before and managed to grind out the sentence that gathered the feelings that reflected the last week's problems. "I forgive you" I just whispered it. It's surprising the effect that words too quiet for Jinx to hear managed to affect Cupcake so easily. The tears that were gathering before were now flowing freely, but the sadness that had tainted them earlier wasn't present, being replaced by happiness and relief. She smiled but it didn't quite reach her eyes. I looked back to Jinx for advice (fuck this was new to me) and saw her looking downtrodden. I was about to ask what was wrong when she looked back up, eyes flashing, and said "You have three more words you should say to her before you say it to me".
Fuck.
I looked back to Cupcake, who was eyeing our exchange with confusion. The hand tightened and so did my conviction. This was a long time coming. I leant right in to her, bright blue eyes staring into deep brown. Then I whispered the three words that had dominated my mind the entire time I had known the Sherriff. The three words that I was too scared to even say in my mind. The three words that I had never uttered in my entire life. "I love you".
The kiss was expected, but still surprised when SHE stole it from me and not the other way around. It was nothing like the kiss with Jinx, but was beautiful in its own way. I could taste the happiness carried in the tears and feel all her repressed feelings through it. I understood after that. She had felt the same way I had felt all those years, but her duty had always come first. It terrified her like it terrified me, the feelings something they should never have felt. They had both hidden in their own way, she with Jayce, and me with alcohol. I broke the kiss. Straightening so I could show her this side of me. I looked up to Jinx and she smiled maniacally (obviously knowing what was coming). "I have something to show you Cupcake"
She gasped at the use of the old nickname and I internally grinned. I knew she would notice that. But her gasp turned into a stony silence as I leant forward into Jinx' lips. It was like the first time all over again, the world shrinking into a ball that contained only us two and I almost forgot Caitlyn's presence. I smiled through the kiss as I noticed that it was affecting Jinx in the same way, she lost that twitchiness she always had and just focused on the kiss. It was her way of saying she lo-…-loved (fuck it) me and I appreciated the gesture. She was a cutie pie.
I broke it off and turned to see the Sheriffs face. I was taken completely by surprise. She had the biggest smile I've ever seen on her face (and a blush?). "Why are you so happy?"
"I left it too late and fucked it up (SHE SWORE?) but Jinx didn't and even though I've seen nothing positive in the psycho's personality after that it seems that she's perfect for you"
I grinned. "Yeah, she is"
Jinx smiled that maniacal smile I loved and was about to turn and leave with me when she heard-
"Though I would love for you to finish the job you started, I think it's a better choice to untie me before you leave"
Oh. Right. "whoopsie daisy"
The memory was one of my favourites. It was the best day I've ever had. I finally professed my love for Caitlyn, saw her naked and fucked Jinx (did you really expect her favourite day to be mostly fluffy?). Good times. "So…I brought that thing you asked for"
Fuck.
"Uh…really?"
"Is it really that hard?"
"Yes" I hissed back.
"You've done it before"
"SHH she's coming"
Jinx had skipped over at the sight of Cupcake and walked right up the girl, giving her a peck on the lips and slapping her ass (my girlfriend is the biggest flirt). "So wassup Hatlady?"
The hat lady in question smirked at me (terrifying) and whispering something in Jinx' ear. Whatever it was Jinx jumped in the air. Fuck. Now she was excited too.
This was gunna suck.
"WHAT DID YOU GET ME THAT'S SO SPECIAL"
I flinched at her outburst, but I was used to it. 3 years had been a long time. It was almost enjoyable when she screamed now. Almost.
"Uhh…I have something to tell you..and it's kin-"
"Just do it"
I glared at Cupcake's for the interruption, but accepted the offered present in her hand and looked at Jinx. OK know when I said the "I Forgive you" thing was the hardest thing I've ever said. Uh uh. Not even close.
I stared into Jinx' eyes. They were familiar yet mysterious. Not even 3 years had been time enough to uncover her secrets. They were kind yet cruel. Her entire being seemed to be two people in juxtaposition. I loved them both without question.
"I've loved you since that night in my apartment Jinx, even though I might not have noticed it (she gasped, covering her mouth to hold in her excitement as I started one of my little rants about her. They actually happened quite a few times, which was why this last bit was going to surprise her). You're beautiful. Two sides of a coin where both sides are queens. (Her nose crinkled at that cheesy joke, but she blushed nonetheless) One side of you is kind, protecting those precious to you like a rabid dog (She giggled a little bit at that, remembering a certain dog she had brought home this one time) and the other side cruel, sharing my love of destruction. (At that her eyes glinted dangerously, that was something that was probably an insult to any other couple). You're the cutest girl I've ever seen (she blushed more at that, cheeks going a delicious shade of pink) and it constantly surprises me how damn sexy you are (The blush expanded to her neck and ears, it made me want to kiss it off, though that had never worked before). I've been with you for three years and even after that you remain a mystery that I need the time to solve and so…(she shrieked at that, guessing what was coming) Will you make me the happiest girl that has ever lived and marry me" I went down on my knees at that, smiling up at her.
"OH MY GOD YES"
She started jumping up and down, tears of happiness streaming down her face. It made my heart ache. I loved her. Truly. Deeply. With all my being. SHE SAID YES!
FUCK YEAH!
Cupcake ran to Jinx; going nuts with her and showering her with hugs, kisses and talking about the wedding already. I just smiled. This was definitely worth it. I had forgotten to give her the ring though. Fuck it. Do it later, she looks happy enough.
Well, I did my job. As I realised that the stress of that speech hit me and…I fainted.
The last thought running through my mind was an image of Jinx saying yes. How could one word rend a heart so beautifully?
And that is the ending. Thank you everyone who read this, went on the ride and the literally 90% positive feedback. I was pleasantly surprised at how amazing you guys are and will continue on this site for quite a while :3. In relation to this story, there were two people that sent me PM's about cait being forgiven and at a couple more who asked in reviews. You guys are actually the reason she was, as it wasn't originally planned. So good for you I guess, I will name and praise you in the prologue coming up. On that note, the last chapter of this story will be a prologue just to bring some closure, but that is in no rush.
Onto next story. As there was only one person who voted at the moment Anko/Hinata won. But it is still possible to pick the story, as I will count the reviews for this story. After that I'll start writing that story. So yeah. Thank you everyone, I did my best, hope you enjoyed. (As a side note, ima probs be asking for a beta reader for this next story so…anyone interested?)
