You both are friends, and both have a crush on each other. Peso also has a slight Hispanic accent.You've been in the Octonauts for a year, and you're Peso's assistant. This chapter is for all my quieter readers. Slight mention of abuse from the mother. Also, there's a panic attack scene
The picture above is just a general description, you can imagine them how you want~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You had been a part of the Octonauts for a year. You stayed in the medic station with Peso and helped him with all the medical responsibilities.
Currently, you were helping Shellington, who had recently sprained his ankle.
"Wow, Y/N, you are incredible at this." Shellington complimented you. You gave a small smile and a nod, signaling that you heard and understood.
Soon, Shellington was ready, and he limped out of the infirmary.
At that time, it was late afternoon. Considering the dangerous mission everyone had to complete, you had a lot of work to do. The rest of the team was eating dinner, and you heard a crash downstairs, followed by laughter. It reminded you of the last time you had seen your mother. The last time she hit you. Tears started to prickle at your eyes and you sat down.
~~~~~~~~~Panic Attack~~~~~
Your breathing hitched and got faster as you sat down in a medical bed. You hugged yourself and brought your knees to your chest. You hiccupped as tears streamed down your face, reliving the memories of your mother doing anything she could to make you cry. By crying, you felt like you were giving in, and it made you cry harder. Soon, you were a mess, sobbing and hiccuping into your knees as you relive your past.
~~~~~~~~~Panic attack over~~~~~~
Soon, you felt arms around you, and the sweet scent of your favorite person.
"P-Peso?" Your voice was barely audible, and he held you closer.
"I'm right here." He whispered gently. Your breathing started to slow as he lightly rocked you both back and forth in a comforting manner.
Eventually, you slumped against him, soundlessly falling asleep.
~~~~~~Peso POV (2nd Person)~~~~
Peso gently laid down, taking you down with him. When he got comfortable, he was spooning you. Peso felt his cheeks heat up at the thought of being this close to you. His lamp was still on, a golden glow coming from it that barely lit the room.
You rolled over, and Peso gasped.
Were your tears yellow?
As they slid down your face, he felt like facepalming. It was just the lamp reflecting off of your tears. Peso carefully wiped them off your cheek as they came down, and you snuggled into his chest and mumbled something.
"Could you repeat that?" He asked kindly.
"Why did she like making me cry?" You whispered into his chest. "Why would she enjoy hurting me?"
Peso teared up slightly, feeling upset that he hadn't noticed your distress sooner. "Some people enjoy watching others cry because it feels like they're in charge. It's like paying them in pennies and dimes when you cry your tears of gold. Their hearts, as they think, get rich while you grow poor of happiness."
You snored lightly, and Peso smiled. He held you closer, as if maybe if he poured enough feelings of love and security into the cuddle he could remove all your sadness.
~~~~~~Your POV 2nd person~~~~~
You awakened to the sound of snoring behind you. You turn around and see Peso's peaceful, resting face. Your mind starts racing, trying to remember what had happened last night. You remembered having a nightmare, but not what it was about.
"Peso?" You whispered, and he stirred slightly. His arms wrapped tighter around you and your face heated up.
"Hm.." Peso was still half asleep, "..yes?"
"Peso, wake up," you rolled over and faced his chest. You stopped for a moment, not knowing what to do, before lightly shaking him.
He pulled you closer and curled up, forcing you to curl as well. He buried his head into your shoulder, and you felt extremely safe. As much as you loved being this close to him, you had to get up.
You looked over at the clock.
7:17
Everyone had to wake up at 7:20. You had less than five minutes to wake up Peso and make sure you both were ready and professional.
"Peso, come on, we have less than five minutes." You shook him slightly, hoping that he would wake up.
Peso tightened his grip on you, and that's when you noticed.
His hand was on your thigh and was lightly gripping it.
You gasped, and Peso immediately opened his eyes.
"Are you ok, Y/N?" He asked, quickly checking you over. His eyes landed on where his hand was, and he gasped and quickly scooted back. Peso fell off the bed with a thunk, and you rushed to look over the side of the bed.
"Are you alright?" You asked, a concerned look on your face.
"Yes, I'm ok. How long did you say we had?" Peso asked, fixing his hair and trying to straighten his clothes.
"It was 7:17 when I checked." You said, getting off the bed and walking over to the closet. Peso followed since both of your clothes were in the same closet, including your nurse uniforms.
Since you both had been doing this for a while, you both went to separate parts of the room to change, turning in opposite directions so you don't see each other.
After you were both dressed, Peso walked up to you and glanced longingly at your hand, before meeting your eyes.
"How are you feeling?" He asked, tentatively touching your arm.
You rushed in and hugged him, wrapping your arms tightly around his back. He hugged you as well, and you stayed in his embrace.
"Thank you," you whispered.
"Your welcome," Peso said, smiling.
Peso looked you in the eyes once more, looked conflicted, and then slowly leaned in. You closed your eyes and slowly leaned in as well. His lips met yours and you wrapped your arms loosely around his neck. You both stayed like that, enjoying each other's company and warmth.
"Y/N! Peso! Kwazii got a carrot stuck up his-" Tweak stopped her sentence, looking at the two of you.
"Whenever y'all are done with that, Kwazii has an issue." She said, winking at you two and closing the door.
"Oh my, we need to check that out," Peso said, pulling away and rushing to the door.
You followed, admiring Peso's love and sense of urgency and responsibility for his work. You ran out of the room to find Tweak laughing hysterically at Kwazii, who was hopping around.
"What happened?" Peso asked, rushing over to Kwazii and dragging him into the infirmary.
"Tweak dared me to shove a carrot up me arse!" Kwazii explained, crossing his arms. Your eyes widened and you sighed.
Today was going to be a long day
