Work Text:
You were anxious. You always got anxious meeting new people, but you knew you had to meet him. Anti. He was the last septic you had to meet. You’ve even met Angus at this point.
You’d been friends with Jackie first, after he helped you when someone tried to steal your wallet. He saved you, and you were grateful for him. Since then, you’ve met the rest of his family. All but Anti.
He was rarely home, always busy doing something. The others have warned you he can be…difficult to get along with. Which only served to make you more anxious about your meeting.
Jackie pulled you out of your thoughts, “It’ll be okay! He’s a softie at heart.” He knew of your anxiety meeting new people, and gradually introduced you to the members of his family. You were anxious to meet all of them, but they all responded well and eased your anxieties. All of them you’ve met have been kind and understanding.
“He’s an asshole, don’t lie. Lying will only make them more anxious.” Marvin pitched in, and successfully made your anxiety worse.
“Um…I don’t know if I can do this…” You didn’t want to skip out on meeting Anti, but the septics weren’t helping.
Jackie put his hand on your shoulder, “It’ll be fine! If he’s mean to you I’ll speak up. You don’t have to meet him alone, we’re here for you!” He was ready for you to meet his last brother, even if he could be mean at times. Jackie truly believed he was a good person, but he would admit he could be cruel at times. If he was mean to his friend…he wouldn’t remain quiet.
Jackie, Marvin, JJ and Robbie were there with you. Angus was away on his latest adventure, and Schneep was working. Chase was out with his kids, or he’d be there with you too.
JJ seemed almost as anxious as you…apparently they’ve had a lot of fights in the past. He confided in you about them, and it fueled your anxiety. If Anti could get into bad fights with his own family…what if he had fights with you?
Before you could leave the front door opened…and there he stood. Adorned with ripped black jeans and a solid black shirt. His green hair flowed, and you couldn’t help but think…he’s gorgeous.
You decided to speak first, “did you know turkeys were revered as gods by the mayan people?” Shit…you got nervous and gave a fun history fact instead of introducing yourself again. “Um…sorry. I really like history. I’m y/n.” You held out your hand to shake his, but he didn’t move.
Awkwardly you pulled your hand back, but he reached out and grabbed it at the last minute. “Anti.”
“Welcome back!” Jackie pulled him into a hug, and it looked like Anti wanted to be anywhere else in the world.
“Oh! I got you a gift!” You reached into your pocket and pulled out a shimmering green rock. It was how you showed your love, giving your friends rocks that remind you of them. You thought it would be a good gift to give to Anti.
He reached out and took the rock. “Thanks.” He kept his responses short and sweet, and the others looked surprised that he even said thank you. Apparently he wasn’t one to do such.
“I’m going to my room, don’t bother me.” Without another word, Anti left to go to his room.
“Well…” Jackie started once Anti was gone, “that could have been a lot worse.”
“Told you he was an ass.” Marvin got up from his chair and walked away.
“Do you…think he doesn’t like me?” You voiced your worries and Jackie instantly reassured you.
“He doesn’t like a lot of people, he just needs to get to know you more!” He gave you a smile then went to the kitchen to make lunch for you all.
JJ smiled at you before walking to his own room, leaving you with Robbie.
“He…not good about feelings.” You smiled at Robbie, pulling him into a hug.
“Thanks Robbie.” You knew he was just trying to comfort you. You pulled away from the hug and followed him to the tv so you could play videogames together.
That was a couple weeks ago. And since then, you’ve given Anti sticks, rocks, and shiny things. It was how you expressed your feelings. And for some reason…Anti hasn’t left again. It seems like whenever you were at the septics house, he was there too.
You found yourself visiting more often than usual, enjoying the time you got to spend with Anti. Today was different though…he seemed more…on edge.
“Anti…is something wrong? You seem distant…” You had grown more comfortable with him since visiting more, and you wouldn’t lie…you were developing a crush on the septic.
“No. Drop it.” That made you even more concerned.
“Are you sure…? I’m here for you if you want to talk about it.” You just wanted him to know you were someone safe to confide in.
He grunted and grabbed your arm, pulling you towards his room.
“Anti…why are we going to your room?” Maybe he wanted to be out of the open to open up. He didn’t confide in his brothers much from what you could see…maybe he didn’t want to talk about it when they could walk in at any moment.
He opened the door and pulled you inside. It was the first time seeing his room. It reflected him a lot, many dark colors. But what surprised you was all of the items you’ve given him out on display. You honestly didn’t think he’d keep them. But apparently he valued the gifts, enough to display them on his desk.
“You…stop caring about me. It’s dangerous for you.” He wouldn’t deter you that easily.
“I can’t. And even if it’s dangerous…i’d like to stay friends.” Even if you secretly wanted more.
“What if I don’t want to be friends?” The words broke your heart, and he saw the pain on your face, instantly continuing, “I want to be more. But I’ll hurt you. I know I will.”
“I can handle it. I can make my own decisions.” You looked up at him, determined.
“Tch…you’re not very good at making decisions then.” He had yet to let go of your arm, and you thought he might just enjoy the contact.
You reached over and held his hand, “What if I choose you?”
He grunted, and pulled you over to the bed, laying you down and hovering over you. “You shouldn’t. You have no idea what you’re getting into.”
“Then tell me…what makes you so dangerous?”
He didn’t respond, and leaned down, lips connecting with your neck. It made you gasp, and a blush crawled onto your face.
“Anti…” he growled at the word.
“Don’t say my name like that…I can’t be held responsible for the consequences.” He bit your neck gently, and you almost laughed at how gentle he was being.
“You have to tell me what makes you so dangerous.”
“If you were mine…you’d be mine and only mine. I wouldn’t let anyone else look at you. I’d mark you so everyone knows you’re mine.” He bit harder, before sucking on the skin gently, effectively giving you a hickey.
“What if I want to be yours anyways?” You felt bold for just a moment, and the words came out before you could stop them.
Anti growled once again and leaned back, taking a good look at your red face before leaning back down and pulling you into a kiss.
It was passionate, and more gentle than you thought possible. You kissed back with the intent of showing your feelings through it. Still…it made your face red. You were kissing your crush, of course you’d be red in the face.
“I want you…but if we do this…you can’t be with anyone else. You have to be mine. I don’t even want my brothers around you. I want you to be mine.”
“Then do it…make me yours.” You leaned up and pulled him into another kiss, this one rougher than before.
You would be his…forever. He would never let you go. He meant every word. You would be his and only his.
