If my mutuals canβt rb this then we canβt be mutuals
So I just finished The Umbrealla Academy I also saw THAT
βYouβre an odd one, curious even, not having a tribute but here every day.β Lucy Gray said, taking a bite of the sandwich you gave her, making you chuckle β Well we all have assignments, I just got one different from everyone else.β βNow whoβs the mysterious one?β She asked with a smile on her face. βSo, Calanthe, howβd you end up without a tribute?β She asked, making your head snap up. βWhatβs you call me?β You asked, making her shrug. βCalanthe, thatβs your name, ainβt it?β She asked, making you shake your head. βItβs just a nickname Coriolanus gave me one day.β Making her raise an eyebrow. βHmmm.β She hummed, taking another bite.
βSo, that song you sang, did you make it up on the spot, or did you have it memorized?β You asked, making her nod. βBack home Iβm a performer in the Covey, itβs one of my favorites. Hell of a place too, singing βn dancing,β she said before looking up at you, βcome and swing by, have a drink and a dance one day, sing your little heart out too.β You scoffed, rolling you eyes, βNot much of a dancer, or a singer.β Lucy rolled her eyes, βAnd? Try it, sing a spell.β She said, scooting towards the bars and looking right in your eyes. βSing what, exactly?β You asked, and all she did was shrug. βAnything. Give it a shot!β She encouraged, making it known she wouldnβt take no for an answer.
So you put your water down, and you made up a song.
You come home late,
Fall on your cot.
You smell like something that money bought.
We donβt have cash, or so you say.
So where did you get it and howβd you pay?
Lucy then gave you a small clap, making you flip her the bird. βYou know, you make the Capitol people look good.β βOh, donβt think that, Iβm just special.β You said, whispering the last part to her. βOh and what makes you special?β Lucy asked, looking at you. βHmmm, Iβll tell you later.β You said, making the both of you laugh.
Billy the Kid x b!woc reader
Being the pastorβs daughter meant you had to always be on your best behavior, never stepping off the right path, walking the straight & narrow path, and her eyes towards heaven. That was until a certain outlaw rode into your life, and taught you sometimes it okay to have a taste of hell with a little bit of heaven.
A.N: readerβs last name is Bennett.
A.N2: Thank you all for the likes & feedback from part one, hereβs part 2!
UPDATE: Part 3 is here!

Over the next few days, you tried to ignore Billy like the plague. He had a different idea, he would follow you like a lost puppy, never close enough for you to see, but you knew his eyes were on you. Going into town: you knew he was there. Working at the bar: you knew he was there. Even in church: you knew he was there and it drove you crazy. You all were taught to not look behind you during service, eyes forward and towards the pulpit at all times.
You were yearning to catch a glimpse of him, just to know you weren't crazy. However, you couldn't risk getting scolded by your mother for improper behavior. So you sat still, the burning of his eyes on you nagging you the entire time. As you waited for your father to finish saying goodbyes, you heard a voice behind you. βI shouldβve known the pastor's daughter could clean up so well,β Billy said, looking you up and down.
βI didn't know the cowboy knew the Lordβs word either.β you responded, looking at him. βWe all have our secrets, darling.β He said, a smirk appearing in the corner of his mouth. βSo what are yours, Billy?β you asked, leaning on the wall and looking up at him. βI'm not telling mine if you're not telling yours, Ms. Bennet.β He grinned. You peeped inside the door and saw your father still in the middle of a conversation, so you had time. βAlright, I'll let you ask 3 questions about me, and I'll do the same with you, deal?β
βDeal. First question: Have you ever had a drink, and I ain't talking about wine?" Billy asked, to which you nodded in response. "Never. Have you ever taken someone's life?" you asked, noticing a slight twitch in his eyes. "Yes, I killed men before.β he replied, making your blood freeze. You felt your eyes go wide. βLet me guess, it goes against one of the Lordβs rules?β Billy asked, a tone of sarcasm laced in his voice. βYes, a pretty big one!β You shouted, making him chuckle.
βDon't worry sweet thing, I'd never kill something so pure and innocent as you.β He smirked, caressing your cheek with his thumb. βI'm not so innocent, murderer.β You snapped, the grin never leaving his face. βOh really? So youβve held a gun before?β Billy asked, raising his eyebrows. βOf course I have!β you answered, making him gasp loudly and putting his hand over his heart in a mocking manner. βI thought you were a proper lady Ms. Bennett! How dare you touch a gun!β he said, adding an exasperated gasp to his sentence, making you laugh.
βShut your mouth! I know how to use one, I've just never shot one.β You said, seeing him side-eye you. βYou poor soul.β you heard him whisper to himself. βSo, why do you bother me so much?β you asked, giving him a sharp and challenging look. βYou intrigue me, little Bennett. I don't get how you've had such a protected lifestyle.β be answered. βHaving a stable life isn't protected.β You said, shrugging. βYeah? Because I've seen those brothers of yours in the bar, and they have the same rules you do I assume.β said, making you nod.
βBull. Shit.β he said, chuckling. βYou don't even see how deprived you've been of fun because youβve had your eyes set on heaven the whole time.β Billy said, and then you saw his smile change, his eyes darkening. βOh. You poor little thing. You don't know what you're missing out on.β He said, making you look at the ground in embarrassment. βEyes are up here, little girl.β he said, tilting your head up. βSo then answer my last question. What do you want from me?β you asked, annoyance laced through your words.
He smirked and then grasped your necklace and tugged it slightly so you were almost nose to nose. βI thought I made my thoughts clear from the start, honey. I want you.β He said, hearing the desire in his tone.
You stepped away from him like he was a raging fire, and yet you stayed close enough to still be within arms reach. You both didn't say a word, you didn't need to. His word rang in your ears. This man was a walking sin, the devil in the form of a man: a very handsome man. His eyes glued to your face, waiting for your next move.
Just like that the word faded away. You were no longer outside the church, you were in your own little paradise. The one that surrounded you when you got lost in his eyes. Your dress softly flows in the wind, yet you don't feel the chill of the breeze. You didn't feel anything actually.
βI want youβ
He didn't know how those 3 words and 8 letters affected you, but then again, maybe he did. Did he want to make you get flustered like this? Possibly. Would you slap him if no one else was around? Probably.
At the same time did you think about what he was saying? Definitely!
Before you could give him an answer, he spoke up first. βDon't you wanna live, honey?β Billy asked, giving you that same signature smile. Fuck him and his cowboy casanova ways, God excuse my French. As a matter of fact, fuck his pretty smile. Fuck his beautiful eyes. Fuck his large strong hands and make you lose your words with a simple touch. And fuck yourself for crushing on him.
Before you could answer him, you were happy to see your father walk out with your mother and father in tow. βThank you Jesus!β you thought. βAh! Billy. I see you've met my daughter.β He said, putting a firm hand on your shoulder. βLovely daughter you've raised, sir. She was just helping me understand the message today, wise girl you have right there.β he said, giving you a kinder smile, but the true intentions remained a secret, one only you two knew.
βWell if you ever want to study the word more, sheβll talk to you about it. Won't you, dove?β he asked, the stern look in his eyes daring you to say βnoβ along with his palm on your shoulder. βBringing a man closer to God and Jesus gets you to heaven as you always say.β You said with a nervous smile. Billy, who was now leaning on the wall, gave a knowing look in his eyes. βCloser to heavenβ you say, Ms. Bennett?β He asked, a playful edge showing through his words. βAmen to that.β he said, taking your hand and kissing it softly. Before you walked away with your family, he whispered to you one last time. βNow I have a veiled excuse to have you to myself.β And with one last smirk, he walked away from you, leaving you shaken.
Your dad had no idea what he had just done. For a man of God, he seemed to be blind to the works of the blue-eyed devil in front of him.
The man who preached on saving souls from temptation just presented the blue eyed silver tongued serpent with his new Eve.
And the apples were looking riper by the minute.
