MICK 

-ˋˏ ༻✿༺ ˎˊ- 

(y/n) refused to give me back my beanie so I attacked her with a fit of tickles. Until she gave in and gave back my beanie. She was laying in the snow, catching her breath. I think I messed her up pretty bad, so I laid down in the snow besides her. She was still dramatically panting and she turned her head when she saw I was laying down. 

"Wanna build snow angels?" She asked me, beaming like a child as if she just didn't get smacked down. I nodded eagerly back at her. I rolled over back further from her but not too far and started moving my arms and leg up and down, side to side in sync. The sky was blue and clear and I felt the sun on my face which was warm and bright. I heard (y/n) singing besides me:

"But if you give me just one night

You're gonna see me in a new light" 

I knew this song. I chimed in:

"Yeah if you give me just one night

To meet you underneath the moonlight"

She turned to me grinning, happy, and continued to sing,

"Oh I want a take two

I wanna break through"

"I wanna know the real thing about you

So I can see you in a new light"

She crawled over wincing a little as her leg dragged the snow, she nuzzled herself in between my arm, destroying the snow angel I made. But that was fine by me. I had a real one under my arm.

We stared at the sky in silence as we hummed the melody of the song, but then, it stared to snow again. I heard (y/n) giggle beside me and she sat up, extended her palm to the sky and caught snowflakes in her hand. She showed them to me like a kid showing them an animal they caught and wouldn't let it go. I smiled at her. She was ethereal, out of this world even. I slyly pinched myself to make sure I wasn't dreaming. Nope. This was real. I stared at her gorgeous face and noticed she had snowflakes trapped in her hair. 

"(y/n), you have something in your hair," she blinked once and asked,

"GET THE BUG OUT MICK!" very calmly, spitting every syllable out. I chuckled, "it's not a bug wolfie, it's just snow."

She then swatted me which made me wince in pain. 

"Ouch!" 

"Well deserved."

She stood up and turned around in the snow, arms extended, tongue out. I mimicked her and turned around too. Then I stopped as I was getting dizzy. I looked at her, she seemed happier. And I was too, every since I came to be here with her. Maybe it was the feeling of knowing that time was slipping or maybe... it was something else. I caught her in her turns and she laughed to herself. 

"Dance with me milady?" I extended my hand to her as I dramatically bowed,

She smirked and gave me her best curtsy, 

"Why yes milord," and then I pulled her closer, my hand on her waist and the other gripping hers. We swayed to whatever song that was playing in our heads. 

"I didn't know you could waltz," I commented, 

"There's still a lot of things you don't know about me Mr. Schumacher," she noted with a wink, "what song are we dancing to?" She asked.

I thought for a moment and then answered, 

"No song, just to the rhythms of our heartbeats." 

-ˋˏ ༻✿༺ ˎˊ- 

after getting home safely from our outing in the park, and a quick trip to the local pharmacy to get more supplies for (y/n)'s wound, we tripped into her house and crumbled onto the couch still wheezing from the joke. 

"You're so stupid (y/n)," I said in between breaths, 

"Yeah well, I learned from the best." She then hiccupped which sent us over the edge. 

After the laughter died down, I looked outside and saw that it was getting dark. 

"I want to take a bath." (y/n) said, and looked at me. I stared at her, my eyes telling her everything. She rolled her eyes and added, 

"I need your help with my leg that's all."

Oh. Right. I tried my best to hide my little disappointment. 

I followed her up to the bathroom and turned on the water for her making sure it was warm enough, but not going to burn her skin off. I added some of the shower gel I saw on display, I sniffed them all first and decided to go with warm vanilla which had a Christmas theme slapped on the bottle.  The bathtub bubbled enough and I closed the water. I looked at (y/n) who was sitting on the counter, clapping her hands excitedly. I smiled and went to her. She then grabbed my face and pressed her lips against mine. I closed my eyes and savored the moment. 

"Danke Liebling," she thanked, I smiled against her kiss and lifted her leg to undo her bandage. After cleaning it, she hopped down from the counter and walked to the bathtub. 

"I'm going to undress now Mick." We both stood there, I wasn't sure if I should stay or if I should go. 

"Do you need my help?" I mentally face palmed myself. But instead she giggled. 

"I might need help getting into the bathtub, could you make sure I don't slip and crack my skull open?" I frowned at the morbid picture and nodded. I turned around and for safety I closed my eyes. I heard rustling and then water splashing. 

"Mick-" As soon as I heard my name I turned around and analyzed the scene first. I saw she was clinging to the rims of the tub, but her whole body was submerged and the bubbled covered her naked body.  I offered my arms and she gripped them, while her head slid off the tub and stayed there while she exhaled heavily, her wounded leg on the outside of the tub. 

"Whew, what a sport." 

"Tell me about it," I smiled softly,  as I crouched by her side, she put her arm on the rim of the tub and put her chin there. I brushed the bubbles on her brow and the hair that got in the way. She melted under my touch. 

"I would've invited you in, but with my leg, that's not going to be possible." She pouted her lips. 

"Suckers." 

:(

I pecked her lips before standing up, and telling her that I'll be just outside if she needed me. She nodded and closed her eyes.  

Maybe I should make dinner.
