[ 2 ] - Hard Yet Soft ~ Gordie x Reader

     It was common knowledge that the "Hard-Rock Crusher" was fairly rude and prideful in his skill. Often showing off and proving those who fell beneath him that he was stronger. He puts up this suave and strict manner that by heart..he masks his true feelings through his blue tinted shades.
     Though behind closed doors, away from the fans, away from the paparazzi, he was quite the softie. No matter how many times he tries to deny it, sway that idea from becoming known, I somehow just manage to push all his buttons.

     Another cold wintery day, the sun barely shining through the cold misty weather. Circhester was a thriving snow globe that harbored one of the strongest gyms there..that so happens to be my boyfriend's gym! On his day off, Gordie and I were wandering through the busy yet quiet streets of Circhester. While it is rather small, it was still homey for those who occupied in it.
     "Here! I know this is your favorite..~!" I smile cheekily towards the pudgy man. Placing my hands in front of him, I offered him a cold chocolatey ice cream. Watching as his hand hover a bit, he rejects it coldly.
     "Y-You must be mistaken, [Y/N]..I don't really indulge in sweets.." Knowing him, his mouth watered for the tasty treat.
     Looking over to the ice cream man, I ordered one more for myself. Gordie stood there, confused by my actions. The man smiled nicely as he handed me another ice cream cone with a different flavor.
     "Here, I know you said it wasn't your favorite but..I still think you'd enjoy it..~" With his lips threatening to curve upwards, he snatched the ice cream out of my hand and turned the other direction.
"F-Fine..only because I didn't want to go on and waste it..". Even in this cold weather, I knew his cheeks were bursting cherry pink right now.
Interlocking our vacant hands, we nipped and licked at our frozen treats. We walked on the small cobblestone floors as we wandered the cold streets. Tilting side to side, I was hoping I could catch a glimpse at Gordie's adorable expressions. Despite his straight and cold expression, he would be quite happy to receive such a delicious treat. Without acknowledgment, he halted in his steps with caused me to bump into his back slightly. He lets go shortly as he turns around to face me.
"What are you trying to look at..hm?" He asked curiously. He must've seen my head bobbing side to side. With all honesty, I replied quickly.
"I was trying to look at your face!" I chirped happily. He snickered lightly.
"Could've just asked you wanted to see me in full view, love..~" He whispers the last part. Fueling my warm heart, I leaned towards him to only dip down to nom a big chunk of his ice cream.
"Aye! No fair! Hmph.." Mirroring my action, he dips down to eat a part of my ice cream. Swallowing it down, his eyes twinkled at the sugary sweet.
"Hehe..knew you would like it..~" Piecing it all together, he blushed yet again at my indirect actions. Yet he still found them utterly adorable..
As our eyes were locked onto each other, a pair of shrieking noises could be heard behind us. Twisting our heads to the source of the noise, it was just a pair of fangirls of Gordie. It wasn't rare to see fans of Gordie out and about. Though almost instantly, he placed his ice cream in my opened hand and turned into a more professional posture.
"Fancy seeing a couple of my fans, how are you two this morning..?" He closed eyed smiled, making the two girls fawn over the man.
Watching from afar, the conversation continued on as they continued to praise and compliment the man. Puffing up from the lack of attention, a small idea rang through my head. Chuckling silently to myself. I walked up behind the man.
"Just two autographs, correct?" He smirked dashingly. The two girls nodded excitedly as they awaited their signed league cards.
With his cards and pen prepared, in which I don't know why, he continues to write smoothly on the printed card. As I wrap my arms around his broad shoulder, as well as grabbing the two girls attention, I place his half finished ice cream in front of him.
"Say "aah"..~" I giggled. With his attention on the signature, he absentmindedly opened his mouth.
Nibbling at the frozen treat, the view form the two girl's side was absolutely astonishing. This sight was probably more rare than his second league card. They melted at the adorable sight, to actually grabbed a quick photo of the man. Finally setting in, he realized what he did. Pink plastering all over his face, he turned to face me.
"W-Well thank you, Gordie! We'll be taking off now..!" They squealed as they snatched the finished signed cards.
Waving them goodbye, I looked over to my the side. From my peripheral view, I saw Gordie's embarrassed riddled face.
"N-Not with people around...it's e-embarrassing, love..~" His gloved hand covering his shy face, I could only chuckle at his comment.
     "Aren't you just the cutest..~?" I pinched and poked at his cheeks. He slapped them away in fits of embarrassment.
     "D-Don't ignore me!" Gordie pleaded with sparks of anger.
      "You know..I like your soft interior more than your exterior. It fits you..~!"
