I walked up to the Smith's house smiling. My long blonde hair was in a high ponytail that touched the middle of my shoulder blades. I knocked on the door and within seconds Summer was at the door opening it. 

"Hey Lucy. Morty is in the garage with grandpa Rick," She was steady typing on her phone the whole time she spoke earning a small laugh from me, "Just uh go knock on the door and they will let you in."

I smiled and thanked Summer before walking through their house to the garage door. I knocked twice earning curses from behind the wooden door. 

"What is it SumSum grandpa's workin," I heard a gruff voice which I assumed to be Rick.

"It's Morty's tutor!" I laughed a little tilting my head hearing a chair being quickly pushed back followed by scurrying feet.

Morty opened the door and smiled up at me, "Hey Lucy!" Morty grabbed my hand dragging me down into the garage. 

I immediately noticed the older man who I assumed to be Rick, steady working at a desk messing with some glowing object. I tilted my head for a moment moving closer hearing him curse as some electric field shocked him. I glanced at the papers with notes on them and rolled my eyes. 

"Hey Morty you got anything like plastic and pointy?" I looked back at him earning a nod before he grabbed two rubber sticks which looked to be child chopsticks. 

I smirked and poked where I saw rick poking and the stick slid through the field and once the stick was in the field dissipated. Rick looked up at me and rose an eyebrow. I smiled sheepishly and backed up setting down the stick. 

"So you wanna explain how you knew how to neutralize a Glafarpian force field?" Rick groaned sitting back crossing his arms. 

"Well I uhm noticed you getting shocked and in your notes it says some things about how they used electricity so I just assumed something rubber and thin enough could penetrate without shocking you because the rubber would-" I was cut off by Rick finishing my sentence.

"Absorb the electricity allowing you to deactivate the field," Rick nodded and sighed getting up, "I need a beer."

I turned to Morty as the man left noticing Morty blushing. I smiled ruffling his hair and sat down pulling out some books.

"Come on kid, these books won't study themselves." 


After hours of studying with Rick butting in adding his comments here and there, I finally put my books away and stood up. Morty was in the shower getting ready for dinner and it was just Rick and I down in the garage. As I went towards the door Rick stood and got in front of it. 

"Stay for dinner. Beth always makes too much and you helped Morty a lot today," He let out a burp before crossing his arms not taking no for an answer. 

I smiled and pushed a loose stand of hair behind my ear biting my lip, "You sure you just don't want me to finish your experiments for you?"

Rick growled patting my cheek earning a blush from me, "Not really, but being my assistant is an option."

I smiled and nodded feeling a warmth crawl into my stomach that I hadn't felt before. I shook it off and shrugged helping Rick until dinner time.


During dinner I sat next to Rick and across from Morty. Beth had made tacos and I was excited. I loved tacos! After I made my plate Beth cleared her throat. 

"So how is tutoring Morty going Lucy?" She said softly pouring herself some wine before offering some to me, "You can stay the night if you need to. Let's celebrate Morty's good grades to come!"

It was obvious that she already had too much to drink and I shrugged holding out my glass. Rick cleared his throat causing me to raise an eyebrow. I rolled my eyes and started drinking my wine feeling the warmth in my core intensify. 

"Be careful how much you drink," Rick mumbled causing a fire to ignite inside me. 

"You're not my fucking dad," I spat back angrily poring more into my glass. 

After a few glasses and not much food I was tipsy. Everyone had gone to bed and I needed to set an alarm for tomorrow. I slapped my ass a few times before groaning. I lost my phone. I shook my head and rubbed my temple trying to think of where it was. 

The garage. 

I really didn't want to go back down there for Rick to be able to say he was right, but I really had no choice. I stumbled to the garage and opened the door to see Rick with his jacket off and his sleeves rolled up working on some gadget. 

"Don't you know how to fucking knoc-," Rick turned letting out a laugh before a long burp, "Looks like someone's a light weight!"

I rolled my eyes and on the step down to the garage I stumbled to my knees and my face landed in Ricks lap. He pet my head gently much to my surprise. As he pet my back I felt the warmth in my stomach return hard, but on the downside it made it churn. I started heaving and Rick quickly grabbed a trash can moving so I could lean over it. He laughed and rubbed my back and played with my pony tail. 

"See? I don't give a shit if you get drunk, but you were drinking so fast I knew you would get sick," He chuckled and tossed a rag on the floor beside me. 

I sat down with my back against the desk and wiped off my mouth. Rick handed me mouthwash which I took gratefully. Was I drunk or was Rick getting hot?

I looked up at him and giggled reaching over gripping his thigh before running my nails down it. Rick watched me with an emotionless face before tilting his head leaning back smirking. I laughed more and crawled over to him resting my arms on his thighs looking up at him. He was so good looking for his age. Rick shook his head and watched me. 

"What do you want Lucy?" Rick chuckled reaching down playing with my ponytail again, "You're like a little kitten."

"Fruit!" I groaned and bit my lip, "I want fruit."

Rick shook his head and stood helping me up and taking me to the kitchen. Once we got into the kitchen I sat on the floor and waited as he rummaged through the fridge. I sat on the dark floor with the only thing to light up the room being the fridge in front of me. 

"All I got for you is a pomegranate kitten," He sighed and pulled out the large red fruit grabbing a knife cutting it in half before grabbing a chair and sitting in front of me.

I giggled and opened my mouth for him to feed me. He sighed and dug out some seeds with his fingers and placed them in my mouth. Before he could pull his hand back I closed my mouth and sucked on his fingers watching him. His expression never changed. He only stared at me for what felt like eternity before pulling his hand back and fingering more seeds from the fruit for me. 

"Mmm is it gonna be like Hades and Persephone?" I tilted my head feeling the room tilt with me, "You gonna keep me trapped here with you? I wouldn't mind that. You're already like Hades with the blue hair and all." I laughed before falling over on my side, "Keep me forever Rick."

Rick shook his head groaning, "What I'm going to do is put your ass to bed Persephone."

I felt my body go light as he picked me up. I curled into him feeling sleep slowly take over, "Anything for you Hades."
