Be Careful What You Wish For. [Maccready x Reader] *BEING EDITED*

Chapter 11: Onward to Sanctuary!

(Two Weeks Later)

Captain's log,...living in Goodneighbor is starting to wear out its welcome. There's little to do here-- MacCready is already doing the main attraction...drinking at The Third Rail. I still take little jobs here and there for Hancock, and other people but it's not enough. I want to do something adventurous, or start our very little farm. Oh--that sounds perfect. Just a farm for me and Fawkes. That'd be really nice.

(MacCready)- " Are you gonna move out of the way?!" He shouts shoving me out of his way.I gotta say-- I've made good friends with people here in Goodneighbor, like Daisy, Kl-e-o and Hancock. Even though Hancock is trying to get into my washed out jeans. I still haven't made friends with MacCready--he flicks my forehead, pushes me when I'm "being" stupid or annoying...For the record, I'm not being stupid, he's being a fucking ass hat. He slowly sits down on the stool by the bar. I approach the counter and jump on it to sit, I fold one leg in to get comfortable.

(Y/n)- " What's up, buttercup?" I say to cheer him up, but It only annoys him.

(MacCready)- "No.No No......you Don't talk. Charlie...the usual" he points a finger at me than to Charlie.

(Y/n)- " Don't you get tired of fucking drinking in this place-- I mean all you do is fucking drink. "

(MacCready)- " Don't you get tired of being annoying?" she shot back.

(Y/n)- " Pfft...no...look, don't you ever thing about leaving Goodneighbor?"

(MacCready)- " I left once, not going back out there" he takes a sip.

(Y/n)- "I've made a plan to get out of Goodneighbor."

(MacCready)- " Good luck, kid-- you'll be food for radscorpions and deathclaws. I bet my cold hard caps on ferals. Ha-- that'd be funny.."He chuckles taking another sip. 

(Y/n)- " I know what I'm doing out there, I was taught how to survive and I have Fawkes."

(MacCready)- " Yeah? where're you planning on going?" he puts the drink on the counter and focus to him...trying to at least.

(Y/n)- " I don't know" I say thinking about it afterwards. MacCready leans over and flicks my forehead.

(Y/n)- " What the fuck?!" I shout and rub my forehead to get any dirt marks he might have left behind.

(MacCready)- " Oh, I got a plan to leave Goodneighbor,  but I don't know where I'm going?" He says mocking me in a girl voice. That's not how I sound.

(Y/n)- " Fuck off. It sucks that Hancock is only giving me small shit jobs. The only thing to do here is go to the Den or here."

(MacCready)- " Hmm" he grunts as he drinks.

(Y/n)- " I was thinking-- maybe going to Sanctuary." MacCready's eyes shot open. He puts the cup down and turns to me with a serious look.

(MacCready)- " Why do you want to go there?"

(Y/n)- " Daisy told me a woman can help me...if I talk to her-- she can tell me all the safe places are to get myself started, maybe theres some settlements I can stay with. This can be a new start for me."

(MacCready)- " I'm wishing you good luck, kid. I'm glad you'll finally be out of my hair..and drink in peace. I'm out of here Charlie" he says flicking my forehead again and leaving caps behind. I rub my forehead-- I see MacCready's back walking out of The Third Rail. What is his problem? He usually leaves till four and returns at six...and its already six, shouldn't he be staying?

(Y/n)- " I'm leaving today!" he continues to walk.

(Y/n)- "You'll never see me again!" he waves a lazy hand up but continues to head upstairs. Hmm...and here I thought we were making some progress on becoming friends but I guess not. He doesn't look like he needs friends.

(Y/n)- " Come on, Fawkes. Lets's get packing." 

(Time Skip)

We gather our things and were set. We were at the main entrance of Goodneighbor. Fawkes was already holding onto his gatling laser. He and that thing....it's like his child. No matter what happens he wouldn't change any other weapon. I hear a door creak open, I look to the town hall building and from the side door comes out Hancock and Fahrenheit. By the look she's giving me-- she still doesn't fucking like me...what did I do to her?... Nothing. Hancock jogs his way to me.

(Hancock)- " Hey, Dollface. Heard your leaving me." 

(Y/n)- " I'd never leave you, Hancock"

(Hancock)- " Don't lie to me. Where you two headed anyway?"

(Y/n)- " Starting a new life, gonna either find a place on our own or settle down in a settlement"

(Hancock)- " Breaking my heart over here" he placed his hand over his heart. 

(Y/n)- " Sorry, Hancock, but this girls has gotta make money and be out there."

(Hancock)- " Ahh come on--stay here and live a happy life with the mayor...heard he got some jet shipments coming in." he steps forward and places his arm across my shoulders pulling me closer to him. I gently shove him back and stood closer to Fawkes. He was staring up at the sky--what is with him and the sky? He's always looking up.

(Y/n)- " Tempting-- but no."

(Hancock)- " Alright-- but does the mayor get a goodbye kiss?" he turns his cheek and points to it. Ehh why not-- he's a funny, sweet guy. I lean in to go for a kiss, at the last second Hancock turns his head and kisses my lips. I back up and smile of the sudden move Hancock just pulled. By sudden reflex I punched his shoulder, just to make it even. As I blink-- the few seconds of darkness-- Eli pops into mind. The kiss triggered the moment when he kissed me, I felt depression run coarse through my body. I tried not to let it bring me down, so I put up a fake smile and Hancock smirks and takes his hat off and bows.

(Hancock)- " Thank you. Thank you..."

(Y/n)- " You won't get me next time" I say wiping my lips when he wasn't looking. I couldn't do that in front of him. Fawkes opens the door for me to go first.

(Hancock)- " Hey- wait a second.." he steps forward and takes off the flag that was tied around his waist. He wraps it behind me and ties it around my waist.

(Y/n)- " Wha--"

(Hancock)- " To remind you a little of home of Goodneighbor and me......and to give you good luck" he says as he adjusts his hat to get comfortable. That was really sweet of him. Still not gonna get in my pants though Hancock, but that was really nice of him. I headed out and Fawkes closes the door behind him. It's sad leaving this place-- felt right at home. No one judges us and basically--we can do whatever the hell we want. I pulled the strap of the rifle to make sure it stays on my back.

(Fawkes)- " Are you sure you want to do this?" Fawkes asks just when I was about to take a step. Come on, take that second step, you've wanted this (Y/n). Think about it some more, living in a settlement outside of walls....farming, saying hi to people. The fun part to think about is just the two of us owning a settlement...oh man...ok put that foot down. My foot was grounded and I waved to Fawkes for him to follow.

(Y/n)- " Onward to sanctuary, Fawkes! That's where we're gonna get our head start in making our lives great again" I point forward posing like an explorer.

(Fawkes)-" After all these years, your personality still amuses me" he softly chuckles and starts walking. I caught up with him and we were side by side. I have a good feeling about this..I know we're gonna find this woman and she's gonna help.
