Only Human Danny Rand/Iron Fist x Reader

Reinvent yourself

I was sent home and didn't have to go to school for the rest of the week. I cleaned up and surprisingly enough, everything was there. I can't believe it was in such perfect condition, and everything worked just fine. When I walked into my room, I saw everything had been moved around. I was puzzled, until I saw Ava's hair tie, Danny's necklace, wait...his necklace. He always wears it, why was it here. Then I remembered the kiss we shared today. It was electric, but something was missing.

I took the necklace into my hand and put it in my jean pocket. I'd give it to him later. I was going back to school on Monday, but I had to take  a test first. If I wanted to be in the proper grade I'd have to pass. I sighed while combing through my stuff. Everything was different now, and my life had gone on without me. Everything was here, except for me. I was a whole other person now. I flipped through the pages of the study guide, not really absorbing anything.  Danny, that's all I wanted right now. I know I only left to protect him, but I honestly considered risking his life by taking him with me. I wanted to so badly. He'd be no good to me dead though. 

Love is a real b*tch. It really is. I wanted to get up out of this desk and go find him, but I was busy. I needed my life back. This test was the first step. My fingers felt the pages and I kept reading. As I uttered the words to myself, I started drifting off to sleep. Soon I was out like a light, in my book pages my head lay. The thoughts circled in my head and I went off to dream land.

The days passed and they were dry. I had to train and study, I had no time to spend with the web warriors. When I went back to school it would all be worth it. I had to keep that in mind. Soon enough, Monday came. I've never been so happy it was Monday. I took the test and passed with flying colors. I didn't officially take classes until Wednesday but I got to talk to the Web Warriors. Danny and I....were distant. I didn't give him his necklace, something had changed about us. I hated it. Of everything that had changed, why Danny too.  When Wednesday rolled around, I wasn't taking no for an answer. I grabbed Danny by the back of his shirt and dragged him to the roof of the school.

"I did not come back from that year away from you for you to pull away from me Danny, I left to protect you and you know it. I'm finally back and all you're doing is avoiding me. It defeats the purpose of coming back." Danny said nothing. "Did that kiss mean nothing Danny." He kept his mouth shut and I was angry. "Daniel Rand, if you don't answer me right now I swear I'll...." I stepped onto the edge of the building. I was completely silent and just let my actions do the talking. It was so crazy. The sirens drove me crazy, literally. Danny's blank face wavered for a moment but then his hard gaze returned as if to say "you won't do it." I gasped in some air and let one foot leave the edge. Danny kept looking at me. This was so cruel of him. I let the other foot leave the edge and I fell.

Danny rushed to the ledge with a worried look on his face and I was hanging from another ledge. "I knew you cared" I said matter of factly. I flew to the roof and jumped over the edge. I landed right beside him and I flicked my hair in his face. " Now talk to me. It's been so long Danny. We've been together for over a year and with the circumstances, we've only been on one date. That's enough to make anyone say "what the hell". I want more time with you. Things have been hectic and everything's different now." I paused my speech slowing at that last part. "I atleast want my boyfriend" I said with a tear almost escaping. His hard gaze softened and he finally said something. "Boyfriend?" He repeated. I bit my lip and said " no, I meant, Well, but we're, I mean, but w-" his lips touched mine in a chaste gentle kiss. One that really said, "I missed you"

I smacked him and said "JERK" the tears spilled out and I grabbed his face and kissed him again. "Don't ever worry me like that again." He touched his cheek, unsure how to react to  the rather unexpected course of action. He held me tight, his warm hug enveloping me in a safe warmth. I loved him so much and I missed him. That year was hell. I had no contact with any of them. I was just glad to be back. Things were finally starting to feel somewhat normal again. I was atleast happy to have this. I was happy to have Danny back. It was a milestone and it was a start.
