SCP-049 x Reader One-shots!

Human!SCP-049 x Child! Reader

Both characters are human, the relationship is platonic.

       SCP-049 Pov: I did not know what the time was specifically, but for all I knew is that it was very late. Not a single breath could be heard, I didn't expect to encounter anyone on my way home. It had been a long and tiring day of dealing with patients all around the city.

I was reaching for the keys to unlock my door until I heard the sound of crying not too far. I felt like ignoring the distant sobs but I could not bring myself to do that, what if the said thing is in danger? 

I followed the sound and to my surprise it was a child, could they have lost their way home? but no child walks around in the forest at this time of night, but who could be so cruel to go as far as abandoning their child? 

-"Hello there, little one" I approached hoping I did not scare the poor child. They turned their head quickly

-"who-who are you?" They questioned, I was more than certain the child would begin running but they did not seem afraid at all, which came to my shock

-"Do not fret, I will help you. Have you lost your way home?"

-"No.. I think daddy forgot about me" The child whimpered, my heart was full of nothing but ache, who could do such a thing. The child did not look older than maybe 6 years old, who ever the father is, he most likely left this poor child out here to die on it's own. This world sometimes scares me.

-"I am very aware that your mother or father have taught you not to listen to strangers, but if you stay out here something bad might happen little one, you can stay the night" The child gave me a puzzled look as if they were shocked but there was a glimpse of relief and happiness in their eyes .

-"Really?! Oh thank you so much!" They exclaimed before they sprung at me I felt them tightly hug around my legs, I did not know how to act in such a situation so i patted their head. I have never felt so..warm? It was certainly not a feeling I was accustomed to but it felt good, since when do children bring such joy?

A month later

-"I am back!" Y/n has been here for more than one month, I have grown attached to them, as if they were my own child, I took it as my responsibility to take care of there education as well.

-"How was school little one?" I questioned them. Hoping for the best.

-"It was very good! But you need to stop distracting me! I have homework." I chuckled at their response as I watched their little figure run to the table and pull a sheet of paper. It did not take long till I felt something tugging at my shirt as I looked down the little one was holding up a paper,

-"Is this your homework?" I looked at y/n who had a proud expression written on their face, they nodded their had and I gave the paper a look.

I could not make out most of the words written on the paper, but I was able to distinguish the teachers writing from Y/n's writing. 

the paper read "What do you want to be when you are older?" Was the question but the answer was what was unclear to me, do they not give them handwriting lessons? I kneeled down and asked,

-"Would you be a dear and read this out to me? Little one?" They took the paper and read aloud,

-"It says I want to become a doctor like my daddy!" Those words meant the world to me, wrapping my hands around the child infront of me,

-"But will I be as good as you daddy?""

-"You will be even better."
