[Prompt #50. Nowhere] [Older!Hope Estheim x Reader]
[The 2nd sequel of One Normal Christmas] [New Year Special]
[Start]

{7:00 AM}

Everything was peaceful. Darkness succumbed your vision, but it made your whole body relax. That was the purpose of sleep, right? To relax. Nothing is better than a nice, good sle--

BEEP BEEP BEE-- SMASH!

A groan escaped your lips as your once peaceful sleep was destroyed. Yet it surprised you that another groan reached your ear. About to open your eyes wide, your mind quickly reminded you of the reason why another human being was beside you while you slept.

[Flashback]

"Hope, you don't need to stay here and watch me while I sleep," you gently urged the silverette, "I can handle myself." The male merely shook his head.

"Letting you sleep alone after a movie that scary? No, I don't think so, [Name]." Hope placed a hand on your shoulder, "I'd rather not get awoken in the middle in the night with you sobbing hardcore. I'd rather watch you, instead."

Your eyes widen and you flush slightly, punching his shoulder, "S-shut up! And that's just because I was scared that my old doll that I still kept might move and haunt me to death! Zombies won't even reach my dreams!"

'Really?' a voice in your mind spoke, 'I really doubt that, [Name].'

"Alright, but I am still staying here 'till you sleep." He sat down on the side of the bed. You sigh, giving up. You stood up and flopped down the bed, since you were already in 'your' pajamas. Really, it's actually Hope's t-shirt and your short shorts with your panties. "Not like you have a choice. This is my apartment, after all."

"Tell me something I don't know." You shot back. You tucked inside the covers of Hope's bed, breathing in his scent.

"I love you too much, I might watch you all night." He grinned teasingly. Your eyes widen and you blushed once again.

"What. No. That sounds more creepy than zombies." You sat up, rubbing your temples as you tried to ease your mind. "Alright. We make a deal. I go sleep here, and you can... sleepbesidemecough."

"What?! Are you serious?!" Hope excitedly jumped. He looked like a kid that just won a year worth of toys! He coughed, "I-I mean, are you... serious?" You giggled at his cuteness.

"Yeah, and this will be the only time that you'll sleep beside me! Not if some miracle happened and we really needed to sleep together or something..."

"DEAL!"

[End Flashback]

Of course, he's nervous and shy at first, but he finally got used to it and hugged you until you both slept... which explained the fact that he's... HALF-NAKED, showing off his six-pack abs to your not-so-innocent mind. He never sleeps when he's not topless. How did you know this? Well... one time you visit him so early in the morning and you saw him sleeping, you had a nosebleed at the moment you saw those...

Who would've thought that you actually got the dream boy every girl wants, gentleman, handsome, cute, and most importantly, HOT to boot! 

"Good morning, Mrs. Estheim..." You blinked back to reality and realize that you have been staring at his abs for far too long, "...like the view down there?" You blush crimson, and pout at him.

"I-it's n-not MY fault t-t-that I actually have a hot boyfriend..." you stuttered, "And stop calling me 'Mrs. Esthiem'!"

He chuckled, kissing your forehead, "Straightforward. I like it." you frown at him.

"You missed."

"Accurate too!" He laughed, kissing your cheek. You groaned.

"Hooope! What happened to the Hope that's shy and sweet? Where did my poor, sweet, preciou-- mmph!"

You, as always, got what you wanted. As quickly as it came, he pulled out almost immediately. You groaned, as he chuckled, sitting up and taking a shirt that was neatly folded on the floor. You tried not to drool at his obviously drool-worthy body, and get out of the room to the kitchen to make a breakfast for the both of you. But not before your hand was taken and made you halt your movements, and look at Hope confusedly.

"I'm taking you out."

{9:00 AM}

So here you were, on your so-called 'date' with him. Normally, you would be happy when he takes you out, but now?

Hell NO is the absolute answer.

"Hope. You took me, right outside the world of civilization, just to take me in the middle of nowhere?!" You gritted your teeth as your eyes only see the tall trees and some random deer. Hope shook his head in disagreement.

"Don't judge a book by it's cover. You didn't even go down the car yet, and you're already complaining?" He sighed, rubbing his temples. You rolled your eyes, still seated in the passenger seat beside the driver's. "Come on, we need to walk to the place."

"W-wait, what? Please don't tell me we're staying here for a few days." You nervously got out of the car, glancing around. He's already taking out yours and his bags, and gave to you the lightest bag that you have. "I can take care of my own bags." You tried to reach your other bag, but he just raised it up higher.

"Don't worry, it's nearby. And the walk will be worth it, I promise." He smiled at you, and you instantly felt a bit of yourself melting once again, despite the cold weather around you

You huffed and crossed your arms, faking that you're still irritated. "It better will, Estheim. Or I'll practically kill you in your sleep." He knew it was a empty threat, so he just chuckled and latched his arm around your shoulder, and kissed your temple.

The walk was short, like he said.The deeper you got into the trees, the better you see that you were heading towards...

"A cliff?" You blinked. You turned to Hope, "Are you going to throw me down there?" He laughed, ruffling your hair, "N-not the hair!"

"You'll see," he said, looking forward. You gave him a skeptical look, before looking at where he was looking. You gasped at the view.

"Oh... my god!" You squealed, dropping your bag and taking your phone out of your pocket. "Hope this is gorgeous! How did you find this?!"

The view was breathtaking. It was your city, with some trees here and there (probably the parks and zoos) covered in frost and on the background, tall mountain silhouettes were seen along with the gray sky and clouds. The snow fell softly down the heavens, making the view look pure.

"Dad gave me this on my 18th birthday. He said to only bring the person that took my heart. Exact words of him."

You giggled, "Now I see where you got your flirty antics. Like father, like son, as usual." You faced him and smiled, "Thank yo--"

He suddenly hugged you, and your vision turned black too. "Don't be so hasty. There's more. Many, many more."

You tried to pull out of the hug, but to no avail. "H-Hope, I can't see! What happened?" He laughed and pulled out, taking your hand.

"I blindfolded you. Now, I'm going to lead you to another surprise."

"It's not a surprise anymore since you already said it to me."

"But did I tell you what is it?"

"Nope. Point taken."

You felt the ground become elevated. "Be careful. It's kind of slippery here..." You hear him mumble. You kept silent, but you were excited about the surprise... or whatever.

When you stopped, you were in flat ground. "We're here... lemme just..." You felt the blindfold loosen, until it was removed. You blinked at first, seeing Hope's smiling face, "Surprise!!" He moved away, revealing a very expensive looking house.

At first, you gaped, and smiled, "Is that another gift for you from your dad?" He shook his head with a smile, and answered,

"It's his gift for me and you."

Your eyes widened, before tackle-hugging him, making the two of you fall down the snow. You buried your face in his chest, smiling widely. "THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOOOUUU!!" You squealed. He was shocked at fist, but chuckled. You sat up, facing each other.

"You're so cute..." He mumbled with a smile. You grinned at him, almost proving it, but you suddenly pinched his cheeks.

"No! You're the cutest!" You chirped cheerfully. You kept stretching his cheeks, until ,you felt his arms scoop you up and carry you bridal style. You latched your arms around his neck. "W-where are you taking me?"

"Inside, where else? We wouldn't want to freeze, right?"

{11:40 PM}


"H-Hope...?" You groggily whispered, rubbing your eyes. "Hope, where are you?" You stood on the door's frame, before peeking down the halls. A sigh escaped your lips as your feet trudged down the halls, not before stepping on a paper. "Huh?"

"Seriously? A goose chase in the New Year?" You stuffed the note on your pocket. "Well then, if that's what you wanted..." You walked to the direction on which the note was pointing at, only to discover another note, now stuck on a small table with a vase.

"...what arrows?" you glanced at the direction that the note was pointing. White arrows were painted on the floor, and disappearing into another direction. "Oh..." You continued following the arrows, that lead to the house's library. "I swear to god, Hope's really a dork... my really cute dork..." You laughed silently to yourself as you saw the last arrow point at a piece of paper in the middle of 2 dictionaries.

If you really know me,
Find my favorite GENRE of BOOKS.


"Seriously Hope?" You sighed, and walked the Science Fiction section (since you can practically see what shelf is what by the practically large signs that directed you in one shelf. You searched the books, and found his favorite book along with another note tucked between pages.

Go to the place
where you can
see the perfect
view.


"Not much of a hint... but I think I know where..." You mumbled under your breath, and walked outside the library, truging down some halls and finally reaching a long, winding staircase. You reached the end and opened the door, seeing him over the edge, A plan of sneaking up to him echoed in your head, but you shook it off, seeing thaat it was pretty useless and the tendency to make him fall down. So, you just walked to him and hugged him from behind.

"Finally. I've been waiting for quite awhile now..." You hear him say was you unlatched your arms around him. "Perfect timing too."

"For what exactly is the 'perfect timing', hmm?" He moved aside and signaled you to move closer. You did and looked on the view.

There, you could see the perfect view of the city, along with some fireworks littered in the sky. The only made it mode perfect, if that is possible.

"It's beautiful..." You sighed blissfully as you turned to Hope, "What time is it?" He looked at his watch.

"11:58."

"I took that long?" You sighed again and leaned over the rail. "At least I..."

You felt him wrap his arms around your neck, and whisper, "I love you, [Name]..." You blush slightly and touch his clothed arms, clutching it.

"I love you too, and I'm really confused on why are you saying the totally obvious."

He chuckled, and said, "Because I really do..." Then he whispered really closely in your ear, "Look there..."

You blinked before looking at the city, just in time to witness a huge firework display.

Y O U  W I L L  M A R R Y  M E .

Your jaw dropped as you felt him unlatch his arms around you, making you look at him in shock. He dropped into one knee and took your hand.

"[Name], I really don't have time to make a long, cheesy speech but I'll just say this thing. I love you, and you will be mine for eternity. You will marry me." He flashed you a charming smile, but by the look of his red cheeks, he seemed to be flustered about this. "Not that you have any choi-- mmph!"

You quickly silenced him with a kiss, with the people's cheers of 'Happy New Year' echoing from the city, and the burst of fireworks around it.

Good to know he knew the answer already. If he didn't, I would've said anything. Well, I guess a miracle just happened... [1]
