Reader X Cassidy short story based on prompt

I was looking through my tik tok saves for a writing prompt and found the best and angsty-est one yet: “I fucked up” “How did you fuck up?” “Because I fell for someone I can never have” “So did I”

(also this is shifting/reality shifting related so if u don't know what that is/means look it up) TW: swearing)

I walked hastily down the sidewalk, not making eye contact with the few people in the area. The buildings blocking the sun behind them made the air grow cold. I wish I was wearing a jacket right now.

The sound of boots pounding with intent not too far behind me was being drowned out by my mind whirring. I rounded a corner hastily. I took a few more steps before I started pacing back and forth in front of the building next to my work. Holding myself in distraught and from the cool air, I was completely lost within myself. No thoughts, just the constant feeling of emotions flooding my senses  

 "Hey." 

I stopped and looked back to see Cole standing a few strides away with a concerned look on his face.

How I wish he wasn't here right now, not with me like this. Not with me knowing what I did.

 "I fucked up," I said as I tossed my arms down to my sides as I looked at him.         "How did you fuck up?" he asked as he stepped closer to me, just about a foot away.

 "Because..." Tears started to form in my eyes as I took in every detail of his face and expression. As much as I didn't want him to be here right now, a small part of me was glad he was.

 "--Because it's taking so long for me to get here and... I fell for someone I can never have, at least not now."

His expression softened as he took another step towards me. Our shoes were just inches away from each other as he reached out and grabbed one of my hands and placed the other on the side of my shoulder oh so gently. 

The look in those amber eyes of his was so intense, and yet it wasn't. So much could be said if the look in one's eyes could speak for themselves.

 "So did I, darlin'," he said almost in a whisper.

~~~

For the first time ever in my life, I jolted awake and sat up in my bed. 

The same bed I slept in every night and woke up in in the morning. The same, light blue walls that surrounded me as I went on with my day. The same, plain chandelier that hung on the same white ceiling I saw every time I looked up. The same blinds I'd close before bed so the morning light didn't wake me up earlier than I wanted.

My breathing was getting heavy and shallow. As I replayed the scene in my head, a familiar pang in my throat started to arise, accompanied by tears welling.

 "Take me back," I whispered to myself. I held myself and stared down at nothing in particular.  

 "No, take me back. Take me back take me back please take me back!"

The tears rolled down my face as I squeezed my arms and sobbed quietly, not wanting to wake anyone.  

 "Take me back please! Cole! I need you! Fuck, I need you! Please! Let me go back!"

My body shook with each sob, stopping every now and then to breathe. 

Thin rows of light shone on the wall opposite of the blinds from the faint light that seeped between them. The annoyingly familiar coldness of my bedroom had given me goosebumps. The heat that was now coloring my cheeks from crying kept my face warm though.

 "No no no no! Take me back!"

And then, as my mind started to process everything, I came to a realization; I was conscious in that moment.

I was fully aware of my environment, of myself, and those around me. I didn't pay full attention, but I know I had all ten fingers. I was aware that I was taller than I normally am and that my body looked and felt different to how it normally does here.

 "He... he meant it.... I was there... I was there!" I whispered loudly, feeling the resistance in my throat from speaking loudly.

 "I was there Cole! You meant it! I shifted on accident and... you really said that.... God damn it," I whimpered as I squeezed myself tighter.

 "For fuck's sake, take me back...."

Reader X Cassidy based on prompt Pt 2

TW: hints at blood, violence, swearing

Prompt: seeing each other get shot in unison

-Takes place before fall of OW/BW

 "Behind you!" we shouted at each other.

The sound of two firearms going off and the sight of each other in front of them made their hearts sink.

Wide eyes and looks of terror were exchanged with each other as a dark spot began to grow from each of them.

 "It's okay! You're gonna be fine!" she said as she took a step forward, only for her vision to blur from tears.

 "You mean we'll be fine. Just come to me," he said as he slowly walked toward her.

 "Fire on my signal," one of the several soldiers said.

The two finally reached each other and held onto each other's shoulders for support.

 "Are you okay? What am I saying, you got shot."

 "So did you, but let's not worry about that right now," he replied as he placed a hand to the back of her head. The other, now on the small of her back.

She wrapped her arms around his torso as the tears rolled down your face.

Both of their knees were getting weak so they let themselves decline slowly.

The coldness of the asphalt below them made her shiver.

 "I don't know how much time we've got left, so I need to tell you something," he said.

 "So do I. You go first."

His grip tightened ever so slightly.

 "I love you. I love you so much it's been killin' me for hiding it for so long. When you called my name for the first time and I really saw you, I knew. God I just knew right then and there that'd everything about you was gonna drive me crazy in the best way possible. Being friends with you was so easy with that personality of yours and talkin' to you was the best part of my day cause you've got the prettiest voice. When I heard you sing for the first time, it entranced me. I'd rather listen to you sing for hours on end rather than listen to my favorite song. Every time the light hits your eyes just right they take me to a forest, filled with rich greens and browns. What I'd do to get lost in them and never be found. You're the best goddamn thing that's ever happened to me and I'm glad  neither of us died before I was able to tell you this."

She smiled and pulled back to look him in the eyes.

 "Huh.... I don't blame you for not telling me this whole time because I haven't told you this either; I love you too. You wanna know the real reason I came here? What my motivation was? It was you, always was. I can't count how many times I'd daydream about you or us. The numerous scenarios I'd create in my head of us dancing or going on missions together and other things. When you saved me that day and I saw you for the first time, I fell even harder for you, and I didn't even think it was possible. I feel the same way about becoming friends with you and how eager I was to talk to you every day just because it was with you. I pictured a life together with you and every time I did, I felt a smile on my face. I wouldn't be alive here if it wasn't for you and I can't wait to see you again in the afterlife. Without you, I wouldn't be whole because you're my goddamn everything."

He smiled at her as tears rolled down his face, his hand now holding her cheek.

 "I figured you felt the same way based on how you flirted with me."

She let out a weak laugh.

 "I could say the same about you."

Multiple, loud sounds came from beside them, making them jump. The soldiers were all dropping to the ground like flies.

They turned their heads and relief swept over them immediately.

 "No way in hell am I letting two of my best agents die on me."

 "Took you long enough. Never thought I'd be so happy to see you Reyes."

 "Very funny, vaquero. Angela, Moira! Over here!"

 "You two seem to be in need of aid," the Irish woman said as she and Dr. Ziegler rushed to their sides.

"Heroes never die," the blonde doctor said as her healing stream flowed towards the two. Moira's healing mist embraced them and the two could feel the pain subsiding.

 "I know this is an inappropriate time, but finally you two admitted your feelings for each other!" Lena piped in as she zipped closer to the group.

 "Now that I know we're not going to die, let's promise to not keep relationship-altering secrets from each other ever again," Y/n said as she looked Cole in the eyes.

 "I swear on my life."

 "Let's get you both back to base and get you patched up. We'll have a talk later about your previous exchange in words," Reyes said.

 "Ooo, the dad and boyfriend talk. Good luck Cass!" Lena said as she and Angela helped them up.

 "We're one hell of a pair of lucky bastards, Cole."

 "We sure are darlin'. We sure are."
