JJ | Rafe - Oneshots

Haircut day | Fluff

Requested by @AccioPotters

'Would you stop moving for at least a second? If it turns out bad, it's your mother I'll have to apologize to, you idiot.' You were currently doing Pope's hair since it's been months since he or his mother last did it.

It's been at least two hours since you started and you were proud that now, more than half of his head was neatly braided. 'After that you'll have an audience idiot. The haircut makes a man.' Pope grumbled, he did not agree but did you care? No.

Fifty minutes later, the rest of the crew arrived, the Twinkie skidding at a stop. 'Oh my. It's haircut day? I want braids as well' And now your hopes for a chill evening were destroyed. Kie sat next to you, excited to get her hair braided.

You were finally done with hair. You sat outside, alone, beer in hand. Your neck was killing you, and your fingers were clearly trembling against the icy beer. 'Is it my turn now?', your eyes widened and you faced your left immediately.

JJ. Oh my, this is not the time. You had that massive crush on the boy since the day you met him. But, yeah, impossible to make it real. No Pogues on Pogues right. 'Aren't your hair like super short?', he sat down between your legs so you could access his hair. 'You've seen worse, don't lie.' And you had indeed seen worse.

Your karma was a bitch, you were just trying to avoid that exact situation. You and JJ, alone. Your fingers in his hair, the two so close it was making your heart racing so much you thought it was gonna stop. Thankfully, JJ couldn't see your blushing face, his back facing you. He was silently humming, his face down so you could access the back of his neck. After 20 minutes, a few ridiculous braids had appear in the mop of his blond hair.

Now, you were working on the front of his head, it was making the awkwardness worse. He was looking right at you, staring while you were looking oh so closely to his hair in between your fingers. He slowly rested his head on your right thigh making you whimper discreetly, but you knew he heard it anyway. The fact itself made you blush like a tomato and you downed your beer in one go, trying to forget the embarrassment.

You couldn't stop thinking about all those times, when no one was looking but him. It gave you headaches for weeks, rethinking about those eyes and looks over and over again. Why was he looking at me? Why was he looking at me like THAT? No Pogues on Pogues, right? Maybe I'm just seeing things? At some point, you were just turning crazy and in a way this situation was making it all too real for you.

'You're okay up there?' It's been over 10 minutes that you had totally finished but even with you telling him you were done, the boy didn't budge. He even gently scooped his right arm behind your leg to hug it. You let out a breath and quickly hid your face behind your sleeve. You only heard him chuckled, you could imagine his smirk and it was making your blood boil. Who did he think he was to make fun of the situation?

'I-I'm gonna go to bed.' You tried but couldn't get up, when you looked down, JJ was looking right back at you. He slowly sat down next to you, and all your usual sass crumbled to the ground. You brought your knees to your breast, hugging your legs and trying your best to hide your face so you wouldn't have to look at the boy just a few centimetres away from you.

'You're adorable. You know that?' You bit your tongue, swallowing your embarrassment. You suddenly looked up and there he was. His eyes catching yours and analyzing your every move. He carefully brought his hands to yours, slowly brushing his fingers to your skin, a move that made you shiver. You let him be around you, clearly shocked and embarrassed at the turn of the situation. What on earth was going on?

He caught your chin, bringing your faces out of your knees and slowly towards him. You closed your eyes, scared that he was just gonna let go and leave. But you felt it, his lips on yours. It made everything silent, and slowly your legs slid down and you were safe in arms you only dreamt of having for you to be held. Everything crumbled and you started feeling terribly hot. The tip of his tongue brushed against your lips and quickly the kiss got more intense.

Your brain was melting and as quick as it had started, your lips were left alone. You were hugged in strong arms as you two laid down on the couch, still outside on the patio.

'Not a word to anyone. I don't want to be the first to break the No Pogues on Pogues rule.' JJ behind you nodded, agreeing with your statement. You turned around to face him, still feeling weird to be in that position. The boy slowly pecked at your lips before pushing his nose in your neck.

And then, the two of you were asleep. Ready to face whatever crap tomorrow had decided to bring out for you.
