Work Text:
Jax had never been one to reflect on how he was feeling but god damn it if he wasn’t the most confused he’d ever been. He and Pomni had sex. It was great sex. That’s an understatement, it might have been the best sex he’s ever had. Although that could be the years of sexual tension speaking.
However the cuddling, and the romantic side of things was troubling. He had pushed away all human emotions for so long he forgot he could feel them. Not even just that, those feelings were dangerous. He didn’t want to end up like everyone else, he wasn’t too keen on going insane.
There was no way out of the circus, he’d looked high and low. They were stuck here, and facing that reality was the last thing he needed right now. So any thoughts of having a romantic attachment to Pomni was out of the picture.
It was just sex. That’s all it was allowed to be, for his sanity. For both of their sanities.
Jax found himself in the main room staring at the floor. Vaguely he heard his name being called, “Um Jax?” Jax snapped back to reality.
“Jax are you okay?” Kinger looked at him with his usual confused expression.
“What? Oh, yeah of course!” Jax fell right into his mask. “The real question is are you okay?”
“No I’m kinger.” Jax’s snicker was cut off by Caine storming into the room.
“I have an amazing adventure for you all today!” Everyone just sort of stared at him. “Well, aren’t you going to ask what it is?”
“What’s the point in asking? You’re just going to tell us anyway.” Zooble said bluntly. Caine gave them a side eye before they finally said, “Oh Caine what’s the adventure for today.” Sarcasm dripping from their voice.
“I’m so glad you asked Zooble! Today you’ll all be working together to steal a precious diamond from an art museum! I’ve titled it ‘Operation Clear Cut’”
The group heard music begin to play, it didn’t sound dissimilar to music you’d hear in a Mission Impossible movie. Caine quickly ushered them all through the glowing portal.
As Jax loaded in he saw the word, “Charmer” appear in front of him. With a small description reading:
Your role is to manipulate the guards and museum guests away from the diamond
Shortly after he was spawned in a decently sized van surrounded by the other members of the circus each with titles above their head.
Gangle - Thief
Zooble - Hacker
Pomni - Mastermind
Kinger - Lookout
Ragatha - Driver
Caine seemed to put a lot of time into this one. Everything was well rendered, and they each had corresponding clothes and items which fit their roles. Jax couldn’t help but stare at Pomni who was wearing a suit sort of like the one she wore at the bar adventure. God she looked so good in a button down…
Zooble’s voice broke Jax from his trance, “Hey looks like we have ear pieces.” Zooble held out 5 small devices that looked like ear buds. Each of them reached out to grab one causing them to transform into items that would fit their body.
A voice comes through each of their ear pieces, it sounds like Caine trying to do a husky casual voice. “Alright crew, you all have your tasks Pomni will keep you all in check to ensure you make it out with the diamond. Good luck gang.” There’s a pause no one moves. “Please interact with this adventure I stayed up all night working on it.”
Everyone turned to Pomni, “Why the f*ck do I have to be the leader?” She sighed, “Okay so it seems like, Jax is meant to go in and keep people away from the exhibit. While Kinger and Gangle get into the room. Ragatha and Zooble you two stay here, and watch over the van I guess.”
“What hacking am I even supposed to do there’s not computer?” As Zooble said that a laptop and headphones appeared in front of them. “Well I guess that answers that.”
“What are you going to do Pomni?” Gangle spoke in barely a whisper. Her comedy mask was yet to be broken and it seemed like she hoped if she was quiet enough it would stay in tact.
Pomni thought for a moment before making eye contact with Jax who had gotten lost in thought. He seemed to be doing that a lot lately. “I’ll keep Jax in check.” She said. To be fair he was thinking about all the ways he could ruin the plan but that didn’t stop him from gasping at the suggestion.
“Why would you need to keep me in check?” He batted his eyelashes innocently as the entire group looked at him blankly.
“Yeah that’s probably for the best.” Ragatha giggled as everyone else agreed in various versions of: yeah, for sure, definitely, and so on. This caused Jax to pout.
Zooble chose to ignore him, “Well my screen is telling me we have 2 and half hours to do this so you all should probably get going. Good luck I guess, I’ll send you updates.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Distracting the NPC’s wasn’t hard at all he practically walked in and said “Hey everyone look over here!” and at least 20 NPC’s ran out of the room with the diamond all scattering to where Jax had pointed. Then Pomni closed the door to the room allowing Kinger and Gangle to climb in through some vents in the walls.
Jax and Pomni spent the remaining time circling the exhibit vaguely hearing Zooble coaching Gangle on how to unlock the cage where the diamond was held.
“So Pomni,” Jax rested the back of his head in his hands as he walked. “You sure you just wanted to supervise me?”
“Well it’s not like you were sneaky about trying to mess this up for everyone. You had that weird look in your eye that means trouble.”
“What is it with you and knowing all my ‘looks’? Do you just stare at me that much?” Jax teased.
“Well I wouldn’t have to if you weren’t constantly being such a pain in the *ss.” Pomni crossed her arms.
The two of them reached a semi-secluded part of the museum. It was a dimly lit room with a few inaccurate renditions of famous art work.
“Hmm I don’t know I think you have ulterior motives Pom Pom.” Jax snickered.
“Maybe I do. You still owe me a conversation remember.” Pomni turned to face Jax who just realized he’s not far away from the wall behind him. Maybe Pomni would give him a taste of his own medicine and- “Jax… Hello?”
He blinked a few times, “Hm?”
“I said you owe me a conversation. You clearly like me in some way, what’s the point of pushing me away?”
“Ugh, talking is so boringg. How about instead we use this isolation to our advantage~” Jax reached for her tie pulling her closer to him so he could reach his hand around her waist and bite softly on her neck.
“Jax…” Pomni protested but she didn’t pull away. Instead she cocked her neck to the side giving him easier access. Which allowed him to suck small marks on the side of her neck. “We need to talkk~”
“Hm you’re right some dirty talk would really get you all flustered huh?” Jax whispered against her neck as he reached down to grope her chest through her shirt. Pomni threw her head back as a shiver crossed along her body pulling out a shaky breath. “You want me to tell you how badly I want you? How much I want to rip off those clothes and take you right here?”
Pomni whimpered in response grabbing Jax’s shirt as he continued to trail bite marks up her neck. Jax could feel her restlessness beneath him, she pulled on his tie, scratched at his shoulders, and was one more push away from jumping on him.
“Hey! Pomni, Jax are you guys there?” It was Ragatha’s voice. Of course it was, of course the Ragdoll would cock block him. Though he knew they couldn’t actually do anything while they were here anyways.
Pomni pushed Jax softly away so she was able to respond, “Yep we’re on our way back now!” Jax looked at her with a hint of desperation; silently asking for more. But he wouldn’t get it. Not right now at least. “C’mon Jax we gotta go.”
Alarms started ringing and lights began to flash red and Jax and Pomni ran out of the museum. Pomni had held him by the wrist until they made it back to the van. As soon as they stepped in Ragatha hit the gas taking off into the portal with the diamond.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When they returned Caine seemed in a better mood. Congratulating them all on an adventure completed, he even let Gangle keep the oversized diamond. In fact everyone seemed to be in a good mood. They were all laughing and joking about the experience.
Pomni however was quiet, aside from a few smiles and laughs she barely said a word. Typically after an adventure they would eat dinner together mainly as a way to have a semblance of normalcy. Pomni however dismissed herself saying she was tired and wanted to sleep. Jax watched as she walked away he felt a sting of anxiety.
Had he gone to far, he did say they’d talk. He knew he owed her an apology, for everything. For all the sh*t he’s pulled and said. But chasing after her felt desperate, so he stayed.
He noticed Gangle’s mask was still in tact, he noticed Ragatha seemed genuinely pleased, Zooble was smiling or the closest thing to smiling she could do. Even Kinger was laughing although he wasn’t sure if he actually understood the jokes that were being made.
Everyone was… fine. Everything was fine.
Once everyone was done they each retreated to their rooms. Or at least Jax thought so. He however was standing outside of Pomni’s door stamping his foot trying to convince himself it wouldn’t be weird for him to knock. As he finally went to knock the door swung open revealing Pomni in a long oversized button up which barely covered her upper thighs which were completely exposed.
And fuck did that immediately sent all the blood in his body straight to his cock. Pomni slowly walked over to him giving him a searching look. Jax was completely zoned, and definitely staring at every inch of exposed skin. Pomni gave him a smirk of her own and pulled Jax over to her bed sitting him down.
He continued to stare at her completely dumbfounded. Pomni looked like she was building herself up the confidence to continue. This would usually be the point where Jax’s brain would come back and he could make a sarcastic comment but he was too busy thinking about how hot this was.
She was straddling him in nothing but a button down, her eyes half lidded, her collarbones exposed and glistening under the dim light of her room. Fuck he was ruined, he wasn’t coming back from this was he? Fuck fuck fuck fuck-
He felt her breath against his neck and he heard a whisper that sounded somewhere between a command and a plead. “Take your clothes off.” Like he was hypnotized by her voice he began to remove his overalls and underwear while Pomni kissed down his body. Once he was exposed Pomni’s eyes went sinister, “Lay down for me bunny boy.”
Jax swallowed audibly and followed her instructions, lying vertically on her bed. He felt this weird mix of embarrassment and total arousal as Pomni looked him up and down. She crawled down to meet his cock which was hard and throbbing. She grabbed it and stroked experimentally watching Jax’s reactions intently. She didn’t get to do enough of that yesterday.
She traced her fingers up and down his cock. Jax was trying to be as calm as he could, unfortunately that was not calm at all. He was shaking, he wanted her to really touch him so bad. But he refused to beg, he refused to let himself slip that far in this digital hell. It wasn’t about her, it was never about her. She was sweet, sincere, funny, and god was she hot. He just needed to stay in that balance between not real but real enough he felt in control. But right now- fuck right now he definitely wasn’t in any control.
Pomni sank her mouth down and every nerve in Jax lit up like a firework. All he could do was breathe heavy and bite his lip to prevent from moaning. Pomni seemed to take notice of this and decided to wrap her tongue around the tip making small circles while still sucking. Causing Jax’s mouth to fall open letting out a small, “Pomni fuck~”
He watched her eyes light up and she continued to focus on the tip. He watched as she pulled out every trick in the book, massaging his balls, licking up the sides, taking it to the base. The closer he got the harder it was to suppress his moans. It’s like she was pulling them out of him.
“Holy shit, Pomni please right there.” Strings of curses and pleads with whimpers in between. After Pomni reached a sickening rhythm taking him to the base and then suctioning around the tip he felt himself close to the edge. “Pom I’m so close~” He gripped the sheets preparing to finally cum.
But it all stopped.
Jax’s eyes sharpened as he looked down to see Pomni who had a wicked look on her face. Holding him by the base of his cock she licked her lips. “Tell me the truth.”
“What the hell are you talking abouuu—“ His question was trailed off by a moan as Pomni returned her mouth to his dick.
She bobbed up and down earning a few whines before popping off. “Admit that you like me.” She continues stroking him while making intense eye contact trailing her hands up to his chest.
“Right- right now? You’re fucking with me.” Jax started to laugh before it was cut off again with a loud moan as Pomni softly pinched his nipple while quickly palming the tip of his cock.
“I can guarantee you I’m not fucking with you.” She smiled as she returned to sucking him off now also playing with his nipples.
Jax thought he was going to lose his mind. Every part of him was electric, he felt so fucking good and yet he was in need of so much more. Moans were just falling out of him now, he was way too far gone to try and keep anything in.
“Pomni oh my god, it feels so good fuck. Can I- can I please hold your hair? I really want to thrust into your throat please?” Jax was just rambling, pleading for whatever he could get without having to let that last guard down.
“You gonna admit you like me?” Jax groaned squeezing his eyes shut. “As soon as you’re ready you can do whatever you want to me. But for now…”
Pomni edged Jax 2 more times before he snapped, “Fine! Fucking Christ, Pomni I like you! I like you so much I just I need this please, please, please~” Pomni smiled cupping his face and kissing him deeply. “Alright what do you want?” She had nothing but honey in her voice, sweet and gentle Jax almost forgot all the torture he had been put through.
“I just want to cum-“ he panted breathlessly, “please can I cum?” Jax began to tear up he felt so emotionally raw, he was overwhelmed by need. It was one thing when he couldn’t feel sexual pleasure at all, but now he was feeling everything all at once.
“Of course,” Pomni wiped a tear from his eye. “Where would you like to?”
Without the stimulus Jax felt himself sober up slightly he still really did want to fuck her throat. But all he could successfully communicate was, “mouth…” he sounded almost shy.
She kissed his cheek where the tear had been and traveled back down just placing her mouth around him. He slowly reached his hand up to her head looking at her for permission. She mumbled a mhm as best as she could with a dick in her mouth.
It sent shocks up Jax’s spine and he let out a long whine as he pushed her head down to the base. It didn’t take long at all for him to reach the cliff he’d been dying to jump off.
“I’m so close, fuck I’m so fucking close god you’re so beautiful fuck I can’t I can’t—“ Jax came with his eyes rolled back in his head hand gripped on Pomni’s hair back arched completely off the bed as he let out a sweet moan.
As Pomni slowly lifted her mouth off of Jax’s over sensitive cock he felt completely grounded. Not like he was so real he was going to die, but real enough he felt like the body he’d been stuck into was his. It pricked at the anxiety in his brain but not enough he could focus on it.
He vaguely could tell a blanket was being laid over him and he felt what must have been Pomni cuddle up to him now wearing a soft sweater which made her feel sorta like a teddy bear.
Jax wasn’t really present enough to realize but he definitely cuddled right up her holding her like she was the most precious thing in the world.
