Chapter Text

Telamon comes up behind 007n7 placing his head in top of him.

"Oh hello birdie. What do you need?" 007n7 asks as he fiddles with his gui.

Telamon doesn't respond and starts to rest his head into 007n7s shoulder and starts to nudge him.

"Hey what are you- TELAMON!" Telamon picks 007n7 up effortlessly and starts to breath heavily on 007n7s neck getting all of his sent onto 007n7.

"Mate..." Telamon whispers in 007n7s ear. As seductively as he can.

007n7 blushes pushing Telamon off of him. "Telamon no. I have to fix the glitch in my gui then go to bed for my exams in the morning." 007n7 complains as he opens his gui back up.

"Please knight? Telamon would like to... repay you." Telamon moans into 007n7s ear trying to convince him.

"Telamon nos a no." 007n7 sighed turning his gui off.

"I'm going to bed. I don't have time for your bullshit." 007n7 says as he forces Telamon to put him down.

Reluctantly Telamon applys to 007n7s demand, 7n7 walks right past Telamon to his room

Telamon follows behind joining 007n7 as they enter the room.

"Telamon wonders why not? You and him have kissed before. Why not become closer partners. Taking one another's heat, and-" Telamon stops as 007n7 takes his shirt and binder off.

"Look birdie.. I like you I really do. But I'm not really in the mood today." Telamon doesn't listen to 007n7. All he's focused on is 007n7s chest.

"Hey are you even- YOU CREEP DONT LOOK!" 007n7 yells as he covers his chest, he hadn't told Telamon he was trans. And he sure as hell never told him he was to broke for top surgery.

"Telamon sees nothing to be ashamed of. There beautiful... all of you is." Telamon says as he holds 007n7s hands. Taking them away from his chest and putting them on his.

A heat was starting to form between the two. They leaned in getting close to kissing before 007n7 pushes himself off of Telamon

"I uhh... you can sleep in my bed tonight if it makes you shut your mouth about 'mating'" 007n7 regrets that decision as Telamon drags him to the bed.

He gets thrown on the bed while Telamon climbs on top of him.

"This pleases Telamon... not as satisfying as mating but close enough." Telamon says as he digs his teeth into the flesh of 007n7s neck.

"TELAMON-STOP YOU LITTLE SHIT!I DONT EVEN HAVE MY SHIRT ON." 007n7 moans loud as Telamon keeps marking him with his teeth.

The teeth stop sinking into 007n7 and Telamon stops and hugs 007n7 in a tight hug instead. rubbing his head all over 007n7s back.

Soon the soothing rubs as strange as they were made 007n7 fall asleep.

A kiss lands on the top of 007n7s head, a gentle soft kiss. Telamon wraps his legs around 007n7.

Making sure the hacker couldn't get free from his grasp.

"Telamon...." A faint noise comes from 007n7s mouth as he wakes up.

The god wasn't snoring. Just laying behind the hacker embracing him.

A scoff falls from 007n7s mouth as he leaned back into Telamons chest even more trying to get more comfortable in the deities arms.

When 007n7 wakes up more he realizes he's topless. "SHIT BIRD BRAIN GET OFF ME!" 007n7 yells at Telamon shoving his face away.

"Stay, mate.. please."Telamons voice was groggy. He was Barely even awake and he was begging 007n7 to stay with him.

"Birdie I have exams! I can't stay with you right now, and you also have to meet up with builder today." 7n7 struggles to push Telamon off him only being able to because he bit the god.

Telamon giggles as he hits the floor of 007n7s floor. "Telamon knew you'd reciprocate with him. He just didn't know it'd be to wake up in the morning." Telamons laugh fills the room, it echos in 007n7s ear.

Was the deity always this needy? 007n7s thought is cut short as his normal alarm goes off.

"Look I'll make you breakfast, and maybe after my tests we can-" "ok, Telamon is pleased with that." 007n7 doesn't get to finish before Telamon interrupts him.

007n7 starts his Normal routine, but now having an annoying bird following him.

He was kinda weirded out by Telamons strange behaviour. He'd usually be at the HQ by now.

Telamon and 007n7 part ways. 007n7 kissing Telamons cheek before Telamon left to the HQ. Making the god blush before flying off.

"Telamon are you even paying attention?" Builder man snaps in Telamons face. Stopping Telamons day dream of 007n7 underneath him, taking all of his-

"TELAMON!? FOCUS." Builder man yells at Telamon finally snapping the bird into reality.

"Telamon doesn't like your intrusive nature builder." Telamon scoffs plucking something out of his teeth that he'd gotten stuck there from breakfast.

"Telamon! You haven't payed attention to me all day! You've been daydreaming left and right, IVE HAD TO YELL AT YOU TO PAY ATTENTION 5 TIMES!" builder man grips Telamons robes pulling Telamon closer to his face. "It's like you've fallen in love!"

"That's such a good guess builder." Telamon boops builder man's nose then starts to walk away from him.

"Fuck..." builder man sighs into his hands wondering why Telamon had to be this difficult

"Is it like... mating season for your species.. (I really don't know what you are..)" builder man asks as he starts to trail behind Telamon. Attempting to cut him off.

"Telamon wants to know how you've become this intellectual. Two correct guesses in one day builder." Telamon laughs to himself.

Builderman pauses. Telamon has never acted like that before. He was also shocked by the fact his stupid ass bird joke was taken seriously from Telamon.

"Well builder Telamon has to go back to his duties.. If you could excuse him for the rest of the day it would be appreciated." Telamon pats Buildermans head and walks off again.

"What the fuck is up with him?" Builderman talks to himself, he can't fight with Telamon. He'll just deflect until the world explodes.

"Tels I'm home." 007n7 yawns stretching his arms.

The bird rushes up to the hacker, Telamon picks him up bridal style and kisses him.

"Telamon has been waiting all day for this. Mate." Telamon chirps as he walks towards 007n7s bedroom.

"Tels.. I know I said we could You know.. do 'it'. But I need to shower first." 007n7 kisses Telamons head as the bird looks at him in confusion.

"But Telamon thought-" "Telamon. I don't want to sleep with u while I look like this, it wouldn't be the best experience... ok?" 007n7 caresses Telamons cheek making the god blush profusely.

"Telamon shall let you do what you do... just be quick mate." Telamon scoffs as he slowly puts 007n7 on the ground. Kissing the hackers head before he leaves to shower.

The shower starts as Telamon sits on 007n7s couch impatiently waiting for the hacker to be finished.

"Ding!" A notification on Telamons admin panel pops up. Probably just Builderman trying to bug him. But It was not his priority at the moment.

Then another one. Then another, until Telamon is being spammed with notifications.

Telamon scoffs as he takes out the panel and starts looking at the notifications on his screen.

One in particular catches his eye from builder man. It was frantic and messy. Typed extremely fast. Something builder man had never done before. All his work was typed neatly and was never rushed.

"TELAMON. SHE'S BACK, HQ NOW." as Telamon reads it he stands up hurriedly.

Telamon leaves a note for 007n7 promising he'd be back soon and with a gift, saying that something urgent had happened at HQ that he needed to Attend to.

007n7 ends his shower. He puts on a towel and calls Telamons name. No response, he goes to the couch and figures that Telamon had fallen asleep.

When he got to the couch Telamon was not there. He looked around the kitchen and saw the note Telamon had left for him

"Dear, 007n7

Telamon has to attend to urgent matters at the HQ. Please forgive him, and he will try to get back soon as possible. He'll even bring a mating offering for your forgiveness.

-Telamon"

"What a dork.." 007n7 scoffs going to his room to put some clothes on. If he had to wait for Telamon he better not do it naked.

007n7 waited. He waited all night, Telamon never showed up. At first 007n7 didn't mind. More time to prepare for when the god got back. He thought to himself.

But as more time passed. The more worried 007n7 got, what had happened? Where did he go? Was he trying to ghost him realizing that 007n7 wasn't suitable to mate with?

Questions flew through out 007n7s mind.

A week had past since the day he had promised Telamon to mate. 007n7 was no longer waiting for Telamon. 'I knew the didn't like me. What a fucking ass. Getting my hopes up. Making me feel loved by him. Only to rip it away after he realized 007n7 wasn't what he was looking for.' 007n7 thought to himself.

He still had hope that Telamon would come back,and that the issue was just something so big he had to be gone for a whole week. But the day Telamon wouldn't ld come back wasn't going to happen, and 007n7 knew that.

Chapter Text

Years later  the hacker had retired. Now having an adopted son that he loved with all his heart. 

It was a windy afternoon. 007n7 had just taken Coolkid his son to the doctors and was shopping peacefully with him. 

"Dad dad! Can we get this?" Coolkid asked softly pointing at a dinobloxers Mac and cheese box. 

"Hmmm , well do you think you deserve it bud?" 007n7 pats coolkids head going down to face level with him. 

"Yeah I do! I've been so good, and I complemented my teachers every day this week!" Coolkid looks at 007n7 with puppy eyes, the ex hackers only weakness. 

"Well with that look, I don't see why not, and since you did so good at the doctors why not get two more bud!" Coolkid squeals at 007n7s response picking up two more boxes and handing them to 007n7. 

007n7 sighs, being happy he started picking up those extra shifts at the diner he worked at. 

A hand touches 007n7s shoulder from behind. 

007n7 flinches turning back slowly to look at the person behind him.

 Shedletsky. A well known admin with an almost spotless reputation. 

"Can I help you?" 007n7 mages out while he takes one small step back from the admin. 

"Oh jeez I'm so sorry! I thought.. I thought you were someone I knew." Shedletsky apologizes quickly. Coolkid looks at him as the admin apologizes profusely to his dad. 

A gear in the kids head spins while looking at shedletsky. 

"OMG ARE YOU SHEDLETSKY!? I've seen you on tv I think you're so cool!" Coolkid starts yapping to shedletsky asking questions about being an admin and how it's like banning hackers.

"Coolkid! Stop that leave him alone." 007n7 looks at Coolkid from above. 

"I'm so sorry about him. He likes to run his mouth. A LOT." 007n7 scratches his head looking away from shedletsky in embarrassment. 

"No no it's ok! I'm used to it." Shedletsky looks at coolkid and goes on he knees "and hey this kids not wrong. I'm the one and only!" Telamon reaches down putting his fist out to coolkid. 

Coolkid is in awe and fist bumps shedletsky stars in his eyes as he looks at the admin. 

Shedletsky looks at 007n7 closer. He's looking away from him still, most likely in embarrassment. 

Shedletsky puts out a hand to the ex hacker. Gesturing it in a circle motion. 

"I umm. I'm still sorry about the disruption.. and if you don't mind I can.. buy you coffee as an apology treat?" Shedletsky grips the back of his neck hoping for a yes from 007n7. 

"You know what. That doesn't sound that bad. Even though you didn't do anything wrong..." 007n7 smiles at shedletsky. Putting his hand out offering to shake shedletskys had. 

Shedletsky shakes 7n7s hand back. "Here let's exchange numbers, and find some time to meet up when we're both free." Shedletsky pulls out his phone so 007n7 can type his number in. 007n7 does the same. 

They wave at each other promising to meet up soon. 

Shedletsky's heart flutters frantically as he leaves the store. He knew the moment he saw 007n7s stupid burger hat that he had found him again. 

Even if he couldn't have the same relationship they'd had when shedletsky was Telamon. Shedletsky was glad that he could spot him and get his number.

Chapter Text

"Hey burger man:)" shedletsky texts 007n7. It only took him 3 hours to get the balls to do so.

"Hey, shedletsky right?" 007n7 reply's around 4 minutes later

"The one and only:p" "hey a realized I never did get your name! Only the kids." Shedletsky double texts. A habit he's always had

"007n7. But you can call me seven :)" oh how 007n7 much friendlier then when he first met him. It took "Telamon" almost 2 months to be allowed to call 007n7 just seven. 

"Oo that's a cute name! U can just call me shed."  

"So seven... when can I get you that coffee?"

"Does Saturday work for you? I don't have work and my son will be at a friends." 

"Sounds good to me, I wasn't planning on doing anything Saturday anyways."

007n7 and shedletsky chat back and Forth. They were actually kinda alike, not so similar that you couldn't tell them apart. 

Just similar enough that if you wrote down what they acted like and you had to guess who was who, you'd have to re read it multiple times to know.

   -Saturday- 

Shedletsky walks into a small coffee shop. It was nothing special. Just something you'd expect. 

Shedletsky looked around. 007n7 had texted him that he'd already gotten there around 5 minutes ago. 

Shedletskys eyes lock onto 007n7 as he starts to walk towards him. 

"Heya sev." Shedletsky says taking a seat in front of the ex hacker. 

007n7 shivers on shock, he was not expecting shedletsky to be there already. 

"Hi shedletsky. You scared me a little.." 007n7 scratches the back of his head, smiling at shedletsky.

Man was that smile so pretty. Just as beautiful since the last time shedletsky saw it. 

"Hey I told you to just call me shed! Also I could tell, I'm guessing you get startled easily?" Shedletsky jokes leaning back in his chair. 

"Yea I guess I have gotten easier to startle..." 007n7 sighs "I'm guessing you've looked into my background and know I used to be a hacker huh." 007n7 says leaning on one of his hands fiddling with his sweater with the other.

"Well... I didn't really have to look that deep into you to know that. But I will give it to you, some of your  hacks did make me laugh when seeing them." Shedletsky stops leaning back in his chair to look at 007n7s face better. 

"But hey that's all in the past! Also what's your order? Don't want you to die of hydration, especially not because of me!" Shedletsky places his hand on his chest dramatically leaning over. 

"Pft-" 007n7 tries not to laugh at shedletsky. Failing miserably. 

"Just-just a medium black coffee two cream 3 sugar, please."  007n7 says I between small giggles. 

Shedletsky stands up walking to the counter. He orders fast ,pays ,then sits down beside 007n7 instead of in front of him.

He reaches a hand behind 007n7s neck and puts his arm around him. 

"So how olds the kid?" Shedletsky says looking and 7n7s face longingly. 7n7 blushes slightly being this close to the admin. 

"He's 9. Turning 10 in about a month." 007n7 replies to shedletsky. Placing his hand on shedletsky's and moving It off his shoulder. 

"Oh sorry. I didn't realize-" "no no it's ok! I'm just.. not really a touchy person." 007n7 says in a sweet way. Making sure to not hurt shedletskys feelings. 

"Still i- I didn't know it's like a reflex to do that you know!" Shedletsky apologizes

"Like I said it's.. it's fine! But I do have a question for you."

"Hit me sevs. What's up?" 007n7 takes in a deep breath 

"What made you choose this coffee shop? It's just such a small shop, and it isn't owned by any big company you know... not something I'd be expecting from an admin." 007n7 rushes the words out of his mouth. Knowing he can't take back the question he waits for shedletskys reply.

"Ah well. It's my usual place! I met, a certain someone here a long time ago..." shedletsky doesn't deflect the question. Just doesn't make it obvious what he ment. 

"I met someone here to you know. He's.. gone now, but he was amazing." 007n7 says tapping his nail on the table repeatedly. 

Man was he making things awkward. His specialty! If only Telamon was there.. he always seemed to be able to make things go smooth ply when he was with him.

Shedletsky gets up as his name gets called to the counter. He grabs the two drinks and walks back to the table. 

He places 007n7s drink in front of him and sits down back beside him. 

"Oh! Thanks shed. Again you didn't really have to buy this for me..." 007n7 says holding the drink closer to him. 

He takes a sip. Mhm! Just as good as he remembered from the last time he'd been there. 

"Ew! How do you drink that. It's so... bitter!" Shedletsky says pretending to gag 

"Well mister my opinions are superior then everyone's, it being bitter is the best part! You just have horrible taste." 007n7 Scoffs looking at his nails in an almost sassy demeanour. 

"Look raspberry tea is OBVIOUSLY the best tea and drink! You're probably just bitter that mines better, you and your drink." Shedletsky smirks taking a sip of his tea. 

"Really you." 007n7 laughs looking away from shedletsky 

"What!?" Shedletsky asks side eyeing 007n7

"You're a tea guy!? That's absurd." 007n7 was now dying laughing taking his glasses off the wipe the tears out of his eyes.

Shedletsky looks at 007n7 in pure utter hurt. He could stand getting yelled at, called slurs, hit, kicked, and other brutal things. But talking shit about his tea was something he could not handle. 

007n7 looked at him for a second before holding his hands "did I offend you? I'm sorry.. I'm not really good with uhm.. social cues and that stuff..." 007n7 apologies over and over trying to get an answer from shedletsky. 

But the only thing he could focus on was 007n7 holding his hands, and how close he'd gotten. 

When 007n7 realized how close he was he blushed and in embarrassment he put his face in his hands. 

"OMG IM SO SORRY! I DIDNT EVEN REALIZE, IM SO-" shedletsky cuts him off. 

"Seven it's ok, it just shocked me is all! Also never disrespect tea like that ever again... I thought I was going to cry..." shedletsky whines fake fainting on 007n7. 

Around an hour later 007n7 and shedletsky are yapping peacefully together. 007n7 relaxes more as they talk, starting to joke more with shedletsky and talking more about his personal life with coolkid. 

Then a worker walks towards them 

"Sorry to disturb you guys but we're closed right now. Do you mind leaving?" The worker says with a mop by their side. 

007n7 looks at the time then gets up. "I'm so sorry, we weren't paying attention to the time! Have a good rest of your day!" 007n7 mumbles awkwardly grabbing shedletskys hand pulling him out of the shop with himself. 

A laugh escapes 007n7s mouth as they make it outside. "I didn't even notice the time pass!" He laughs uncontrollably getting shedletsky to join with him, 7n7s laugh being contagious. 

The two gasp for air as 007n7 starts to calm down, shedletsky aswell. 

"Look.. I had a great time today shed. I uhm I think I'd like to hang out with you again.. IF YOUR OK WITH THAT!" 007n7 confidence Faultiers while he speaks. 

Shedletsky breathes out in a small giggle. "I had a great time aswell sev. I think I'd like hanging out again aswell." Shedletsky smiles at 007n7 a warm gentle sincere, smile. One that 007n7 hadn't gotten in years. 

007n7 blushes and waves goodbye to shedletsky as he runs off. Promising to find time in he schedule so they could meet up again. Shedletsky chuckles at him while also waving 007n7 goodbye. 

Shedletsky snickers to himself "god... just as goofy as I remember.." he stretches his arms and wings wide as he opens his admin panel and teleports away.

Chapter Text

(The pov for this one will mostly be shedletsky, I also wanna add that I'm a new writer and this series is just for fun! If you have any suggestions I'd love to hear them!)

007n7 and shedletsky had been talking non stop for a while now. They mostly chattered about random things, or they just sent each other memes. 

Shedletsky felt a flutter on his heart every time 007n7 responded to him, made a joke, or even just saw his message. Something in the admin yearned for 007n7 even more than before. He had missed the (ex) hacker a lot after laying low and changing his identity. 

But something about actually having him made his usual smug remarks and appearance fade away, into something more genuine. Sure Telamon had loved 007n7, but the way he was now, almost the complete opposite from when he was hacker had struck something new i shedletsky. And he liked it. 

(One new message) shedletskys phone dings. 

Burger boy🍔: Hey if your not busy next weekend wanna go star gazing with me and coolkid? I think it'd be kinda nice :)

Theoneandonlyshed: Sunday or Saturday? 

Burger boy🍔: does Saturday work? I have a shift at the bar Sunday night. 

Theoneandonlyshed: first off you work at a bar? Second yea sounds good to me :P

Burger boy🍔: yea I do! The pays good. Still not as much as the diner pays. 

Theoneandonlyshed: jeez dude how many jobs do you have? 

Burger boy 🍔: only the two at the moment. I haven't had a third in about a year. Just hoping it stays this way lmao. 

Theoneandonlyshed: sevs I gtg admin stuff Yk XP talk to you later:)

Burger boy 🍔: oh ok! My sift break ends soon anyway. Bye shed. 

Shedletsky turns his phone on silent and puts it in his pocket. Already missing 007n7 like the desperate man he was. 

"Letsky! Hurry up duse and doom are waiting for us at the diner!l builder man says walking into shedletskys office glaring at him. 

Shedletsky sighs standing up stretching his wings. "Coming builder." Shedletsky shrugs walking up to builder. 

"Who were you texting? Did you get a boyfriend or something?" Builder man says heading towards the exit of HQ. Shedletsky following Behind him. 

"Nah just some guy I met a few weeks ago. He's nice" shedletsky is lying his teeth off. He can't let Builderman know he's texting his "ex" after running into him. Builder would not like shedletsky being a love sick fool, like before. 

"Uh huh..." builder says glaring at the other admin. He knows he's lying, shedletsky was never the one to lie easily. 

Shedletsky starts to whistle until Builderman got to his car. 

"Dude why do you always insist on driving? We can literally teleport." Shedletsky scoffs as he gets to the passenger side of the car and gets in. 

"Letsky like I've told you I don't like teleporting, it makes me nauseous." Builder man sighs as he gets in the car and turns it on. Tapping the wheel 3 times before backing out of the parking spot. 

Shedletsky fiddles with his fingers as Builderman drives. He was never a car guy, he found them to small and always had an itch in his wings afterwards. Epically in Builderman cramped ass car. God the thing was old, builder had it since shedletsky had met him as Telamon (which was almost 30 years at that point) 

Builder man parks unbuckling his seatbelt. "Get up chicken legs." He shouts closing the car door walking to the internee.

"Builder I don't even have feet like that anymore. Only socks!" Shedletsky says quickly getting out of the car scrambling up to Builderman. 

Shedletsky looks around the diner looking for his friends. 

Doombringer waves at the two men, singling them to the table where duse and him sat. Shedletsky grabs builders hand and pulls him to the table. 

"Been a while hasn't it doom." Shedletsky says in a low chuckle, scrunching his wings up behind his back to give Builderman room in the booth. 

"So it was chicken man! How's it been?" Doom chuckles back smiling at shedletsky. 

"I'm not even a chicken.... I'm an owl hybrid duh." Shedletsky says glaring hard and the other admin across from him. 

"Hello doom, and duse." Builder man says nudging shedletskys arm to get him to shut up. 

"Hey builds." "Hello Builderman. Shedletsky." Dusekkar says smiling back at the two closing his eyes. 

The four admins start talking about work and how their lives have been. They hadn't seen each other for around 3 months since doom and Duse were travelling for work. 

Soon a waiter walks up pouring the four waters. Shedletsky looks up to say thank you, before he can he realizes 007n7 was serving them. It took a while to recognize him, he had no burger hat, and he look more well kept. 

"Seven I didn't know you worked here." Shedletsky says before he can stop himself. God that's mildly embarrassing. 

"Oh! Shed I didn't notice you. But yes i got the job a while ago." 007n7 replies smiling softly at shedletsky. 

"Well what would everyone like to drink?" 007n7 says before shedletsky could even think of a response. Taking everyone's orders walking off. 

"Shed you know that guy?" Doombringer says staring at him wide eyed. 

"Yea, we met a bit ago... why?" Shedletsky replies chugging his water. 

"Idk he just seems so different from you Yk. He also reminds me of someone.. I just can't put my finger on it.." Doombringer says taking a small sip out of his own water. Even if the cup barely fits in his hand. 

Shedletsky sighs putting his cup down then leaning more onto the table. "Doom it's none of your business or concern who I'm friends with." Shedletsky snorts loudly making sure Doombringer hears him loud and clear. 

Doombringer just looks at shedletsky puzzled. Shedletsky had never acted like that, in fact he was always very open about people he knew, and about his private life. "That's-" 

"Anyways what are you guys ordering?" Shedletsky interrupts Doombringer trying to change the subject completely. 

Doombringer, Dusekkar, and Builderman glared at each other. All with a look that reads 'what the fuck is up with him?' 

"Shedletsky, why do you turn away,  From Doombringer, come what may?  Your words like shadows, drifting by,  In truth's embrace, don't let it die." Dusekkar says glaring at shedletsky in a way that made the owl shiver. 

"What... I'm not.. deflecting! You know I'm not one to do that..." shedletsky is very VERY adamant to reply to any more questions about 007n7. He was mostly scared that the 3 other admins would make fun of him for having a "crush" or realize 007n7 was an (ex) hacker and try to bad him. It was better for shedletsky to be quiet to not raise suspicion. 

"Ok, let's just talk about something else." Builder man sighs rubbing the bridge of his nose. Raising his glasses as he does so.

All the admins agree with Builderman (especially shedletsky) and move on from the subject. Shedletsky can't help but stare intently at 7n7 every time he walks up to the table. God does he look hot, his eyes look like emeralds, his hair is neater then usually. Probably because he took off his stupid ass burger hat. And that fucking uniform, it made his features even more visible, and had 7n7 started to work out from the last time he saw him, and his-

"Shedletsky!" Builder man snaps in shedletskys face getting him to focus. "I already paid let's get going." Builderman says pulling shedletskys arm and him out of the booth. 

"Oh sorry builds. I zoned out."shedletsky sighs as he gets up and stretches his arms and wings. 

Builder just stares at him for a few seconds before turning and walking to the door. 

"Hey builds I think I'll just teleport or fly back to HQ." Shedletsky says waving at him.

Builderman takes a second to respond before sighing. "Shedletsky. It's the end of the work day. Go home." Builderman gets into the drivers seat of his car and drives off. 

-One hour later- (stupid transition Ik...)

Shedletsky stares at the ceiling of his  room. It wasn't anything special. It was just white, very bland to look at. He'd been staring at it for the past 40 minutes. 

'BUZZ' shedletskys phone goes off. Making him get knocked out of his trance. One message from 007n7. 

Burger boy 🍔: hey shed! Didn't expect your Meet up to be at where I worked, and I can't believe o was your server lmao.

Theoneandonlyshed: maybe we're just destined to be together 👀

Burger boy 🍔: very funny shedletsky. Very funny. 

Theoneandolnyshed: hey at least you admitted it! Makes it true right?

Burger boy 🍔: you caught me! Anyways want me to just pick you up for star gazing Saturday? Or are you just gonna Meet me and coolkid there?

Theoneandonlyshed: you can pick me up, I don't mind!

 (Shedletsky 100% minds he just wants more time with 007n7) 

Burger boy🍔: ok then! I need to go pick coolkid up from his babysitter so goodbye shed:)

 Theoneandonlyshed: buh bye sevs:P

Shedletsky puts his phone down. His heart was racing. Soon he drifts away, he is much too old to be able to handle staying up late.

Chapter Text

-Saturday-

"DAD! are you excited  for star gazing tonight!? You told me Mr shedletsky was gonna be there aswell right?" Coolkid bombarded 007n7 with questions. Making his father even more tired then he already was. 

"Yes bud I'm excited, but speaking of shedletsky I need to text him really quick. Can I trust on you to be good while I do so?" 007n7 says sweetly getting down to coolkids level to look him in the eye. 

The kids eyes light up as he runs to the living room . "Of course papa!" Coolkid yells excitedly, running onto the couch as fast as he possibly could.

The child's figure disappears as 007n7 lets out a low chuckle. 

"What a silly kid.." he sighs taking his phone out. 

Shedletsky had been pinned to the top of his contacts list. 007n7 didn't know why but it just felt right. Shedletsky reminded him so much of- 

Never mind, they were different people. 007n7 couldn't start seeing the two as the same. It'd affect his and shedletskys relationship friendship. 

The former hacker sighs. Calling shedletsky as he starts to pick an outfit out for later today. 

A minute passes before shedletsky picks up the phone. 

"Hey sev! Why you calling?" Shedletsky yawns. His voice was rough, tired even. The admin had probably just woken up. 

"Hi shedletsky. I just wanted to know what your address was? I mean we've been planning this almost all week and haven't and you haven't even told me!" 007n7 chuckles, looking though his closet looking for something nice to wear. 

"Hmm, oh yea! I guess I haven't told you it yet! Geez sev we really aren't good at planning stuff eh?" Shedletsky laughs, his voice soft. He also gets up stretching his wings to their full length. 

Shedletsky voice made 007n7 blush. It was.. so warm. Something he hadn't heard in years, something that hadn't been directed to him in years! Not ever since tel- 

"Anywho I'll send it later! By the way is your car big? I just have trouble fitting into Yk smaller cars." Shedletsky adds before 007n7 could finish his thought.

"Oh, I don't drive a car. It's actually quite a big truck, my sister gave it to me after she got her new one. Let me tell you my old car was.. something!" 007n7 sighs, starting to focus on what clothes to wear instead of how hot he felt. 

The admin on the other end of the phone cheered silently at 007n7s words. FINALLY! no cramped ass old car. Even if he'd still be kinda uncomfortable. He'd still be with 7n7, and would at least have SOME room. 

"Shed?" 007n7 says. Uncomfortable with the silence on the other end of the phone. 

"Oh sorry I got distracted." Shedletsky jokes laughing off the silence. 

"Uhm so can we pick you up at 5?" 007n7 asks. Finally picking out a shirt that looked nice and had no stains.

"Works for me!" Shedletsky says. His voice layered with excitement. 

"Ok, oh I got to go make breakfast for cool!" 007n7 says quickly as coolkidd yelled from the living room. "Can't wait to see you shed." The ex hacker says opening his room door. 

Shedletsky pauses. "Can't wait to see you aswell sev.." the phone goes silent after shedletsky speaks. 

The admin was blushing, sweating even. He was at a loss for words. 007n7 can't wait to see him? This can't be real. Is he dreaming??? No no he must've meant it in a platonic way right?

... right? It didn't matter to shedletsky.

The admin falls back down onto his bed. Hands on his chest as he just looked at the roof. How could he focus on anything else than 007n7 at the moment. 

Shedletsky just sits there for a few minutes. Time flying by until.. shit, he had to actually get ready. Not just sit around and wait for his Prince Charming to come and save him!

Shedletsky looked at the weather. It was gonna be cold, around -10. The owl picked up his phone and texts 007n7. 

Theoneandonlyshed: hey sev it's gonna be cold. Don't forget a jacket:)

Burgerboy 🍔: ah thanks owlet, I appreciate it! 

Owlet..? What a funny nickname, well... it was also quite cute, ok no. It was VERY cute, EXTREMELY cute even. Just the thought of 007n7 calling shedletsky owlet made shedletsky blush. With his deep voice... in his German accent, god shedletsky could just combust thinking about it. 

But no shedletsky needed to focus on getting ready. 

He picks out a pair of sweatpants and a small jacket. Nothing special, just comfortable and warm enough for the day. 

Meanwhile 007n7 was making breakfast. Just waffles and bacon. 

"Daddd why do you only make waffles? Why not pancakes?? I like pancakes more! I always get them at bluus.." Coolkidd whines watching his dad. 

The ex hacker sighs, "you've never asked me to make pancakes before silly!" 007n7 chuckles softly booping Coolkidds nose. 

A huff comes from the child . "Yea I guess so..." he says in an almost sarcastic tone. 

"Well bacons almost done so go sit down and I'll get your plate ready!" 007n7 says smiling at the little boy. 

Coolkidd forgets his whining running straight to the table sitting down in his usual spot. 

007n7 chuckles, taking peace's of bacon and putting them on coolkidds plate with 3 waffles. He walks to the table and puts the plate in front of the Kidd. Also setting down whipped cream and syrup aswell. 

The dad goes back and grabs himself the last waffle. He also grabs a cup of coffee that had gone cold because of him getting distracted by coolkidds breakfast. 

Coolkidd devours his food in a hot minute. 007n7 was barely done half of his waffle by the time Coolkidd screamed "Done!" 

The small red devil says, getting off his chair walking towards the living room. He'd been watching a show about dinosaurs, and had gotten distracted by the smell of breakfast before he could finish it. 

007n7 grabs  kidds plate and puts it in the sink, rinsing it aswell. He also finishes his food cleaning that plate aswell. 

His phone starts to ring on the table, almost moving off of it. The dad rushes towards it, catching it right before it fell. 

It was his sister 118o8 calling. She always called at the weirdest times. 

"hey 8o8 why you calling?"He asks taking a sip from his coffee.

"Seven, I was just wondering if you free could you possibly watch bluu tonight?" 118o8 says on 

the other line

"Sorry 8 no can do. Im going stargazing with Coolkidd and one of my friends tonight. But I bet Noli could."Seven chuckles softly

A small giggle from 118o8 could be heard from the other end of the phone. "A friend eh? Are they cute???" She asks in a mocking tone

007n7 blushes, HARD at the remark. "ja, er ist süß. Aber ich werde nicht herausfinden, wer er ist. Ich bin mir 100 % sicher, dass er mich nicht so mag!"  Seven snickers. 

"You really want him to be a secret huh big bro? Speaking German and all." 118o8 could be heard trying her best not to laugh. 

"My sons around, I don't want him to.. yk over react." Seven replies looking at Coolkidd as he does so. 

The kid was so full of life. He was really the only reason the ex hacker would be here today. 007n7 couldn't even comprehend what hed be like if it weren't for Cool. 

"Anyways I'll give Noli a call! Bye seven!" 118o8 says hang up as soon as she does so. 

007n7 looks at the time. 8:24 am. He had a lot of time until he had to pick up shedletsky. 

-5pm (I don't wanna write anymore boring stuff b4 the gays meet up 🥹)- 

Shedletsky was nervous. Was he under dressed? What if he says something he might regret, maybe 007n7 was messing with him like back in the old days, and wasn't actually gonna show up. Was seven gonna re- 

The admins thoughts are interrupted when he hears a knock on the door. 

"Coming! He blurts out barrelling towards the door. 

The door opens. 007n7 was in front of him, holding Coolkidd in his arms like he weighed nothing. 

If looks alone could kill someone, 007n7 would've caused the world to explode. He wasn't even wearing anything to extremely fancy. Just jeans and a jacket with a fluffy hood. 

"Uhm hello? Shedletsky you in there?" 007n7 says in a gentle tone waving his hand in front of shedletsky multiple times. 

"Oh sorry! You just look really.. nice I got distracted sorry." Shedletsky chuckles closing his door and locking it behind him. 

Nice? Shedletsky thinks he looks... nice? The thought alone made 007n7 blush. Good thing it was cold out or 007n7 would be caught red handed. 

"HI MR SHEDLETSKY! HOW ARE YOU??" Coolkidd giggles looking straight at the admin. He points down as a sign for 007n7 to put him down. 

"Hey dude! Am good how bout u?" Shedletsky asks kneeling down to stare at the kid. 

"I'm good Mr shedletsky!" Coolkidd yells, he's jumping in excitement at this point. "Come on! We need to get to our spot papa!" Coolkidd says running to the truck, opening the door before jumping in. 

A chuckle leaves 007n7 as he looks at shedletsky. "Thanks for coming.. Kidds been waiting all week for this." 007n7 says extending a hand to help shedletsky up, which shedletsky proudly accepts. 

"Also I think you look nice to.." Seven says giving shedletsky a smile. Walking towards the truck before Coolkidd came out and dragged the two men there himself. 

007n7 wasn't lying when he said his truck had a lot of room. Shedletskys wings could finally stay behind his back instead f basically wrapping himself in a ball. 

The way to the park was loud. It was filled with loads of questions from Coolkidd, he was mostly asking shedletsky about the SFOTH swords and how it felt to be a "warrior". Shedletsky gladly answered all of them. Even telling a few stories about his fights. 

Shedletsky also tried to flirt with 007n7 in a "joking manner" which made the father both blush and laugh. 

"So are you like a chicken or something??? My cousin thinks you are and he's never wrong!" Coolkidd asks leaning towards shedletsky more. 

"COOLKIDD! THATS MEAN, you know what I told you about questions like that." 007n7 stares back at him glaring. 

"Sevs it's ok I don't mind. Really." Shedletsky puts his hand on 007n7s shoulder trying to calm him down. 

"Ugh I'm sorry, I knew someone and every time someone called him a chicken he'd freak out! I guess it's just a reaction I developed." 007n7 sighed looking at the road again. "And sorry for lashing out kid, you did nothing." 

Shedletsky's heart skipped a beat. seven had remembered that about him Telamon? 

007n7 stops the truck. 

"We're here!" He says stopping the engine. Walking towards the back seat of the truck as Coolkidd and shedletsky leave it. 

007n7 grabs a small basket of goodies before locking the truck door. 

-they arrive at the spot (I'm NOT writing shit about how the got there)-

The spot was nice. It was isolated from the rest if the park. The only thing there being a large oak tree, it had a small swing attached to a branch, a very old and probably broken swing. 

Coolkidd runs up to the swing jumping on it and starts to swing fast. 

"Cool be careful! The swings old." 007n7 says putting an old table cloth on the ground. 

"Brought food huh?" Shedletsky jokes sitting down with 007n7. 

"Well yes. We are gonna be out here for a few hours before we can actually star gaze so I thought it'd be nice to have a small picnic." 007n7 says opening the basket completely to show a few snacks. 

"Papa just wanted to make sure you didn't get bored, or hungry." Coolkidd adds on still swinging. 

"Hmm? So you brought food just for me?" Shedletsky jokes sitting giving 007n7 one of his cocky grins. 

"Don't get your hopes up to high shedletsky, You were the least of my worries." 007n7 replies, lying his ass off. Shedletsky was basically his only concern, other than Coolkidd. 

Shedletsky holds his chest as if someone just stabbed him, laying down on 007n7s lap as he does so. 

"Oof! Seven how could you back stab me like that? Your own guest?" Shedletsky moans dramatically closing his eyes.

007n7 rolls his eyes at shedletskys remark. 

"Sure sure.." the ex hacker says stroking shedletskys hair as he lays on his lap. 

Shedletsky freezes. Wow ok, this was new, had 007n7 ever comforted him like this when he was Telamon? 

"Ew you guys are acting like a couple!" Coolkidd says pretend gagging and puking. 

007n7 chuckles at Coolkidd, "Kid it's what friends do, not every time I touch someone means I'm dating them!" 007n7 chuckles as he wipes happy tears from his eyes. 

Friends..? Right him and 007n7 could never be anything more then that, just friends... Never together, not again. But oh how shedletsky wished that could change. How they could be together like they once were. 

"Anyways what'd you pack dad?" Coolkidd asks getting off the swing sitting by shedletsky and 007n7. 

"I just some snacks and  chicken sandwiches." Seven says booping Coolkidds nose. 

The small devils eyes light up as he grabs one out of the sandwiches. They were cut in triangles with no crust in them, just how Coolkidd liked them.

Shedletsky sat up slowly, letting 007n7 get closer to Coolkidd and the basket. 

"I also have your water bottle in here, so if you get thirsty just come and grab it." 007n7 sighs putting the dinosaur water bottle beside the basket. 

"Ok thanks dad!" Cool says almost un audibly as he bites into his sandwich. He runs back to the swing. Getting in it as he eats his food. 

"A dinosaur water bottle huh? I wish I had one." Shedletsky Chuckles as 007n7 sits back beside him, two sandwiches in little bags in hand. 

"Yea.. Cools obsessed with them.." 007n7 says handing shedletsky a bag. "He also needs his sandwiches cut into triangles with no crust because if they aren't it's not good." The ex hacker chuckles leaning back on the tree as shedletsky just stares at the food in his hands. Then at the package in 007n7s hand.

"Hey seven. Why are your sandwiches, different?" Shedletsky asks looking at The bag. 

"Hmm? Oh I ran out of chicken when making them. So I just made one with turkey instead." The dad Shrugs opening the bag and taking a bite out of it. 

Shedletsky stared for a second before giving 007n7 a soft smile. Leaning his head on the ads shoulder. 

"Thanks for not making me eat it... I hate Turkey." Shedletsky complements. 

(SORRY FOR LEAVING YALL IN THE DIRT OML😭😭 IM NOT EVEN AT THE STAR GAZING PART!! TYSM FOR BEING PATIENT THO!!)
