Little Out Of It [Klaus X Reader]

Little Out of It [Klaus x Reader]

Requested by Anonymous 😢

Klaus had long since spotted the symptoms of his wife's decline. Symptoms of postpartum depression, something Klaus was hoping would be short lived. He thought he had proper preparations, thinking the same issues would arise as they had after the birth of their older daughter.

Sadly, where you had once ate until you were sick, Klaus was now attempting to coax you into eating. Even if it was simply a bit more than last time you attempted to eat. Keeping you company despite your withdrawal, attempting to keep your daughter from thinking you didn't love her anymore. Countless explanations dancing around explaining what depression was to a seven year old. Making sure that your infant son wasn't without parental interaction, as that does lead to complications in development.

Of course Gilbert was a large help with some of these things, namely in getting you to eat something. But Klaus was still running himself ragged. He wanted so desperately to help you, and yet he could feel himself cracking.

Though his determination refused to let him give up. The last thing Klaus wanted to do was give up on the love of his life, the woman who had given him everything he wanted in life.

Klaus settled into the bed behind his wife, curling his arms around you tightly. Hiding the small frown when you shrank in his embrace. He wasn't entirely sure how much longer he could hold back his own tears, it was heartbreaking to see how badly this affected you. Klaus just wanted this to pass, he knew it wouldn't last forever, that you weren't usually like this. If only there was something more he could do to help you in this mental state.

"Klaus?"

The low hum from Klaus sounded a little more distant than normal, especially as he was reluctant to loosen his grip around you. Even though you were trying to roll over to face him.

"I know this is a lot on you. I'm sorry."

A large thumb swiped at your tears, "Shh, this isn't your fault Liebling. I'll be okay."

"But it isn't right for you to bear all this..." The look in your eyes struck Klaus so much harder than it should have, "Especially with you caring for both our children. I... I haven't made things easier. I want to shake this but..."

"Shh, easy Liebe." Klaus pressed a soft kiss to your forehead, "I'm right here, I'll always be right here. I know you'll make a full recovery."

"I love you. I need you to know that." Your voice sounded smaller against his chest, but Klaus was going to comfort you, "I love you so much. I love our kids, I just... I just."

Klaus gently rubbed his chin across the top of your head, nuzzling ever so gently as he was known for, "I know Liebling. I make sure our children know. Things will get better mien Schatzi, I promise."

You were torn between low energy and the soft comforting gesture of Klaus rubbing your back. Just before you fell to sleep, you heard the deep rumbling of Klaus's voice.

"Ich liebe dich, mien Hertz"

Klaus vibes.... he agreed to help with your studying and got held up at work.... oops.

"I missed a deadline for the group project and I'm now trying to make it up to you by burying you in helpful research papers and baked goods" AU

Day 4 [Zapp/ Lucky/ Femt]

Prompt: "I did love you..." "Did? What changed?"

Zapp

This really shouldn't be a surprise to Zapp, he had spent years coming home to a wrecked apartment. But there was something wrong about how his apartment looked right now, especially after how long you'd been with him.

Zapp had gotten used to a clean apartment after all this time.

Though it was hell, it still didn't take too long for Zapp to comb the city and find you. At a friend's house of all things, he knew this would be messy as hell. And it would hurt a hell of a lot worse than any other time something like this happened.

But the yelling never came, your friend had just... let Zapp in without fuss. The loudest the two of your voices got was only slightly above regular talking until...

"I did love you Zapp-"

"Did? DID!? What the hell changed?"

Zapp couldn't take the way your eyes welled up like that, he hated what you showed him even more. A text from someone he had been with before you two got together. He had gotten a woman pregnant in his carelessness.

Your ragged breath brought Zapp back to reality, "I just... I can't. I knew the kind of person you were, but... I can't deal with this, not like this."

"Yeah," Zapp rubbed the back of his neck shyly, "I get it."

Lucky

"I did love you-"

"Did?" You stood in the kitchen with your lover, "What changed Blitz?"

The older man sighed, not wanting to admit what was going on. He still did love you, but he needed to protect you. And being associated with him was the worst thing for you to be at the moment. Especially with a coven of blood breeds on the hunt through the city.

"Listen [Name], I can't explain it." A hand rested on your shoulder, "But know that this hurts me too. I loved you, and I want this to work. It simply won't. I'm sorry."

"You can never explain things to me!" Your emotions were boiling over, "I always have to blindly trust you! But you don't trust me! Why can't you just explain this one thing!?"

Lucky was about to break down, he knew most of this was hurt feelings. But he also knew you were right. He asked you to trust him all the time. Though this had nothing to do with how much he trusted you, it was all about protecting the one person he cared about more than life itself. He just didn't know how to do that without putting as much distance between the two of you as he could.

"I want you to be happy [Name]." He lowered his head, but kept eye contact, "And I know that I'm not the person you deserve. Please, understand that I never wanted this. I never wanted to let go, but I know this, our relationship, it isn't healthy. I'm sorry."

Lucky just stood there, watching you storm off. After you slammed the door, he finally shed a few tears.

Femt

It was hard to tell when your lover was joking or when he was serious. At first, you found it endearing, but even you had your limits.

"Where are you going dearie?" Femt tried moving your suitcases away from the door, "Don't tell me you have to hurry off to a meeting?"

His giggling was cut short by just how hard it was to move your luggage. Quickly turning to frustration as you moved them easily, right outside the door.

"I'm leaving." You let out a hard sigh, "I just can't... I..."

"Now don't give me that dearie." Femt tried to take the suitcases from your hands as you moved them, "Where are you going? You look like you packed everything but the kitchen sink."

Though Femt giggled, your annoyed grunt didn't escape him. He turned his attention to pulling you back into the house instead.

"What's wrong dearie? You aren't like this."

"Its over, us I mean." You broke his grip and kept moving your things to your car, "I can't stand being here much longer."

"But you love me." He tried to punctuate with a large grin but...

"I did love you Femt, but..."

"Did? What changed?"

"The joke is wearing thin." You turned, "The one where you can't take anything seriously. Everything has to be a joke, and it stopped being funny a long time ago."

Femt stopped, and while you couldn't tell what he was thinking he was frowning. Even in your rearview mirror, he just stood there frowning after you.

A Surprise to be Sure... [Klaus x Reader]

Requested by Anonymous 💍

Klaus couldn't help but feel a little too large for your bed. It was certainly a bit of a tight fit. Not uncomfortable, it was just difficult for Klaus to focus on the movie with you so very close to himself. He loved being this way however, able to snuggle with you like this.

Especially after the long research period that this latest case had him hunched over his computer for. Yet, during all that time, one particular event had clouded his mind's eye.

Just how was he going to propose to you?

He could be traditional, go out to a nice restaurant and ask over dinner. He could arrange a star gazing picnic and ask while the stars glittered in your beautiful eyes. He could ask you out to go dancing and ask just after the perfect song ends.

There were so many ways he could go about this, and he'd been thinking over every possible idea that floated across his mind. And yet, none of them seemed perfect enough for you. And Klaus wasn't about to go for anything less than perfect for the woman who made his life ever so.

Even now, as the two of sipped a light champagne, cuddling together on your bed and watching old comedies together... the prospect of proposing to you in the right way was his most prominent thought pattern. And then the, hopefully, eventual wedding... possible children...

Klaus couldn't honestly picture his life without you in it anymore.

In truth, he worried if some of his hesitation was born from the fact that you still had to wait out the lease on your apartment. After all, he had offered for you to stay with himself already. You had moved so much that wasn't basic essentials into his house. By all means, you had already made up your mind and were than prepared to move forward with building a life together.

So why was the perfect idea eluding him so vehemently?

You on the other hand were just enjoying a quiet evening half laying in top of Klaus and laughing at the dated humor playing out on screen. You knew Klaus had a rather restricted sense of humor, not that he wouldn't find it funny on occasion. But you were use to him being completely silent for long stretches of time no matter how many jokes were told.

Klaus didn't hesitate to break the silence when you got up to change the movie. Though it wasn't strong alcohol, you could tell it had much more effect on Klaus than one would think. Maybe it had something to do with how tired he was?

"[Name], Liebling. There's something I need to say."

Klaus's resolve only strengthened when you turned, tilting your head to indicate you were listening.

"I am so deeply in love with you. And I wouldn't know what to do if I hadn't been so lucky to have met you. I very much want to call you meine Frau."

You stood just at the corner of the bed, you didn't understand what Klaus just said. Maybe it was the champagne, maybe it was just late. It definitely had something to do with the fact that Klaus cut to German so quickly.

And yet, Klaus reached into the inner breast pocket of his loose vest. Pulling out a stunning little engagement ring and kneeling in front of you. That alone clued you into what he was really asking. It felt so very surreal, to the point that you stopped breathing for a second.

"Yes!"

Klaus hit the ground hard, catching you as you flung your arms around his neck. Settling into a better sitting position to slip the ring onto your finger, then to wrap you in a hug from which there wasn't escape. Nuzzling against your neck carefully and debating how to get back up on the bed. He couldn't have planned it better if he tried.

No doubt Klaus would kick himself come morning, but for now he was just elated to have you clinging to him.

"You do have an amazing sorcery! Thank you for the gift, Miss, uh..."

"It's Nahida, seeing your smile is more than enough!"

A little art I did while waiting for new year countdown featuring little Klaus and Nahida from Genshin Impact!
