i wrote something for the demon slayer fandom but i feel like its too random to share over here đ
haley and sam are childhood friends who used to get mistaken for siblings
everyone adores you (at least i do)
pairing: sam x reader
wc: 1.1k
tags: CHEEEEESY cheesy cheesy puppy love, mutual pining, sam is PATHETICALLY down bad, pre-relationship, abigail and sebastian mentioned, friends to lovers
synopsis: if it were up to sam, he'd spend every second of everyday at your side.
a/n: in all of my other sam fics, its reader embarrassingly in love with him...he gets a taste of his own medicine here lol!
With vanilla ice cream melting and dripping down your fingertips, coarse sand underneath you and the salty ocean waves lapping at your feet; you are a child again, sitting with your grandpa at the docks, watching as he reeled in a âbig oneâ. Filling his bucket with loads and loads of fish.
Those days are far gone now, but the memory remains, as clear as the day you remember it. The feeling is nostalgic, sleepy in the way your senses are dulled by syrupy thick contentment. Beaches at sunset have that effect on you, you suppose.Â
âThis is fun,â Sam says, tone lacking its boisterous loudness, you almost donât hear it over the sound of crashing waves. âI had a lot of fun today, farmer.â
Your eyes flicker to him, his green gaze dead-set on the peachy golden sky, the taste of sea salt mingling with sweet ice cream heavy in your tongue. The sea breeze is cold, whipping against your face and running through your hair.
âI did too,â you agree. âYâknow, I donât get a lot of off time with the farm and stuff. This is a nice change of pace.â
He smiles, that sunshine smile youâve come to associate with Sam. âI caught you at just the right time then, huh?âÂ
You shrug, your own smile mirroring his. âAuspicious.â He did.
The sun is setting, the day is coming to a close yet Sam wishes it wouldnât, silently pleading with any higher being to somehow stretch time. He is barely a religious person, but the weight of his want is enough to transcend his own beliefs. Every second with you barely feels like enough; like sand slipping through his fingers.
One thingâs for certain, Sam isnât going to just let it end here.
âWe should hang out like this again,â Sam says, a little hurriedly, captured all in one breath. Shy and tentative, like a bashful child with a school crush. âUh, I mean, do you? Wanna? Hang out with me?â
You can barely suppress a delighted chuckle from slipping past your lips, your chest warming with fond affection. âIâd be more than happy to. Yoba knows I need a break or two or Iâll actually explode,â you huff while Sam hums in agreement. âWe can even invite Abigail and Sebastian⌠so can demo that new song for me, I see you all working very hard when I visit sometimes.â
He should be happy to hear that; that youâd be more than happy to spend your precious off time with him out of all people. You and him, him and you, Sam and the farmer. Your name connected to his with âandâ, it makes him giddy, causes his cheeks pinken and pinken.Â
Just the two of you, though. Sure, he loves his friends, Abby and Seb have been with him since day one. But it feels out of placeâ
(Sam, Sebastian, Abigail and the farmer doesnât have that ring to itâŚ)
âYeah, IâI dunno, itâs justâŚâ
The unfiltered truth is stupid, at least to him. Vincent is far too young for some of the things Sam longs to say. Thereâs a reason Abby and Seb hang out under his nose, he wonât blame them, they have their own secrets he isnât privy toâtoo serious, too dull for him.
(And now with you, he thinks you might just be the one he can share his own secrets with. Because even he has his own serious, dull thoughts. Thoughts that he doesnât want brushed away with a snarky remark or a sarcastic laugh.)
âI kinda like that itâs just the two of us?âÂ
His voice sounds unsteady, squeaky. Trailing off at the end, lost in the sound of water crashing at your feet. Phrasing his statement into a question that you could deny, that you could easily brush offâbecause if you did, he would too.Â
(It would be a bummer if you did though, but Sam is cool with that, chill with any decision you make. Really, he totally is.)
You grin, bumping your shoulder against his, your ice cream is dripping down, down, down your knuckles. Once your skin meets his, you donât pull away, you press closer and closer to his side. Leaning your head against his sunburnt shoulderâbut he barely registers the stingâand your arm against his own. Itâs a pleasant weight, having you against himâgrounding and tethering him to you.
âI do too. Like it, I mean. I think I get to see so many other sides to you, Sam. Without the others and all that.â
Sam feels his breath hitch, his cheeks flush even pinker even with the sunburns. âWoah, phew, I meanâawesome⌠When, when do you think we can meet next?â
You tilt your head, running calculations through your mind. Youâre very busy on that farm, he knows; but Sam canât help but keep his hopes up, youâre fun company. Maybe the best heâs had yet.
âI know I wonât have enough time until my melons are ready for harvestingâand donât you dare try making a joke about that,â you smile, wide and cheeky. Right as Sam readies an innuendo at the tip of his tongue; it makes his blood pump faster and his breathing stutters at the thought of you knowing him so well.Â
âSo how about this?â you propose slowly. âWe spend one day every month doing all the stuff we wanna do, together. just you and meâfun right? Iâll even sleep a little earlier the night before.â
Sam bites into his ice creamâchocolate and your treat, at your insistenceâthough he isnât quite sure if the immediate smile on his lips is due to its sweetness, or yours.
He leans closer into you, resting his head on top of yours, strands of your hair tickling his lips. Lowering his voice into a whisper so only you can hear.
(The secret is that you make Sam want. Want, want, want like heâll never get sick of it. He hoards these stolen moments with you so greedily yet wants more.)
ââŚtwo days, two days each month.â
He feels your body shake with the strength of your laughter, warmth swirls all throughout his body, tingling wherever your body brushes against his own. Sam finds that he likes the feeling, the buzz of itâitâs addicting.
âYeah, alright then,â you reply, mirth dripping from each and every word. âtwo days. We have a deal. Better?â
âYeah,â he turns back to face the water, the ocean spray misting his face. âYeah, a lot better. That does sound fun.â
Anything sounds fun when it involves you.
glue song by bebadoobee is THE stardew valley song
thanks for tagging me, caelwynn!!
here's a little excerpt from a fic i never got around to finishing (lol! maybe someday) but i'm really proud of... if you like lance from stardew valley expanded this one's for you!
âIt fills me with a terrible ache to think of you being injured. I know you are more than capable but accidents like these are unavoidableâŚI only want you to be prepared in any scenario.â
Hesitation graces your features, you donât want to add to his burden. âLance, I can look after myself.â
âI know you can, Farmer. Believe me when I say that you are one of the finest adventurers Iâve ever had the privilege of meeting⌠but I donât want you to just accept the idea that you shouldnât have to depend on anyoneââ Lance takes a deep breath, a close lipped smile gracing his features. âI mean⌠Iâm here, arenât I?â
(tagging anyone who wants to join :>)
Fellow fic writers: I wanna know what your favourite lineâor paragraph, part of your work, whateverâis! I don't care what fandom, but I want us all to celebrate ourselves today! Tag friends and keep the chain going if you'd like! I've tagged all the moots I could find who I believe this applies to. If I missed you I am eternally sorry and you can set a curse upon my head.
My favourite passage that always sticks in my head, from Kick at the Darkness:
"I love you." He kissed her forehead. "I love your mouth." He kissed her lips. "I love your eyes." Elsie closed them, and Shane kissed her eyelids. "I love your hair." He placed a kiss on her glorious curls, and breathed in her scent. "I love the way you smell. Like cedar and wildflowers. I love your confidence. And the sound of your voice. I love the way you move. But most of all I love this." Shane pressed his lips to her breast, kissing Elsie over her heart. "Your good, open heart. Most people look at me and they don't really see me. They see a drunk, or a failure. But you know me. You see me." Elsie had a tear running down her cheek, and Shane kissed it away.
