Dating Tory Nichols would include —
Pairing: Tory Nichols x fem!Reader
Includes: Mentions of sex, Grumpy x sunshine—type trope, Terry being an asshole and a lot of fluff overall .
🪐Notes: This is quite a long headcanon and I definitely got carried away, however she deserves much better--even with the anger issues :)
- The first time you moved to the valley, you became no stranger to the name ‘cobra kai’. It was everywhere honestly which you found weird but didn't pay attention mostly.
- You were obliged to join Miyagi—do as more of a courtesy considering your parents and Daniel Larusso went back long time.
- Quickly bonding with Samantha Larusso and the rest of the friends circle with ease.
- Many warned you about the infamous Tory Nichols numerous times on your first day in school.
- When Tory saw you for the first time, she just knew she had to talk to you.
- You were apprehensive at first, knowing what she could be like but after a couple of tries from her, you decided to give her a chance.
- Which eventually turned out to be one of the best decisions in your life.
- Tory wasn't at all like how your friends described her to be. She was kind at heart, a bit unclear but strong headed and fierce. Bits by bits the more you unraveled her, the harder it becomes to possibly hate her.
- You could tell she was stand offish at first given the fact she's been hurt by the ones who should have protected her. Yet somehow with you, she feels safe despite her past experiences.
- Both you and the other start to come closer as time passes. Soothing and giving her comfort on many nights where she gets nightmares.
- Helping and taking care of her family when she can't. Reassuring her moments where she doubts herself.
- Slowly you find a bruised up heart that's only beating strongly but fragile.
- She'd be oblivious to how different she is with you—the increase in her heartbeat when as small as a smile is displayed by you. Or the butterflies in her stomach seeing you playing and entertaining your brother.
- You had so much of an affect on her, which you clearly never noticed.
- Maybe it's for the best, she thought. You were too good for her, too good for anyone in this world. But she wasn't.
- Wherever she went people get hurt. The ones who got close to her regretted it after. You were so kind—and oh so sweet, she didn't deserve you.
- Tory was fast to get what she wanted. But with you she's so scared.
- So scared that you'll end up regretting being there for her because she would end up hurting you.
- So what did she do ? She ignored you.
- It broke her seeing the sadness when you became aware of her avoiding you. But she pushed it away.
- You were confused.
- All tried attempts at reaching out to her failed just as miserably with her reacting,
“Just leave me alone for God sake !”
- It stung. You knew Tory was far more temperamental than she would like to admit.
- You called her out on her bullshit, it wasn't malicious but rather concern seeing as she continued to ignore you with poor and hurtful reasons.
- It was new to her. Someone so perfect as you to care for her. Worry about her. Never having someone like that in her life, she was only waiting for something to go wrong.
- As if it was too good to be true—as if you were too good to be true.
- But you were true.
- And knowing she hurt you felt like an arrow through her chest. So she did anything to make it up to you.
- You're surprised to see Tory at your doorstep in the middle of the night, soaked by the rain that was continuing on the night.
- And when she finally opens up to you, you better be ready to have a protective and loyal partner by your side.
- Your friends are not a fan of your relationship but come around eventually as time goes on, spotting how actually nice Tory was becoming cause of you.
- With more healthy conversations and light convincing, she finally loosens up. Dropping her guard around you (which she had a lot of time ago ofc!) and other people.
- She still gets jealous tho.
- Regardless of the times you assure her, she's afraid one day you'll lose interest in her along with meeting someone better.
- PDA is her favorite.
- It not only helps her on her hard days when being troubled because of financial problems, it's a way of keeping her assured you're not going anywhere.
(bby has childhood issues 🥺)
- Tory was never more happy before you.
- Moreover realising her feelings for the past lovers was NOTHING compared to the love she held for you.
- Not really a fan of nicknames but would love it if you give her one. As long as it's a
cute normal one. - Late night walks around the river.
- She's a greedy lover as she'll push you against a wardrobe and capture your lips with her's while you barely catch your breath.
- Winking is a HUGE turn on. Just be ready to be expecting hickeys after.
- But honestly this baby was so soft the first time, asking you again and again,“Is this okay ?”
- She'll always be so gentle with you all the time but can be just as rough. Especially if it's jealous sex.
- Though would feel very bad about the bites and hickeys on your body the next day as she would make sure you're taken care of.
- Tory's very soft and sweet in after care everytime.
- She gets so flushed tho when you're on top—
- Protective.
- If a cobra kai student mentions or threatens you in a conversation (which obviously can't be good) She's ready to take them down.
- Anyone who gives you a hard time, she'll shut them down. Physically or not depends on the person, situation... and you.
- She's such a loving girlfriend honestly.
- Making handmade gifts for you, hanging Polaroids of you in her house and even making amends with Sam particularly cause you asked so.
- Fixing the injuries Terry caused on her.
- Infuriated, you were going to storm down his house before Tory stopped you in time, knowing you could get hurt badly.
- She sometimes doubts her heart won't leap out whenever you wrap your arms around her to kiss her.
- No matter how many times you will hold her, she'll never get used to it.
- Honestly this girl is so grateful for you, like she thinks how her life would have turned upside down if it weren't for you to magically appear—
- Tory's absolutely beaming inside whenever ‘my girlfriend’ is the mention of her you choose instead of her actual name on any discussion in the company of others.
- Though she won't gush too hard (obviously) but everyone knows she's a simp for you. (not that she would ever admit it)
- You both are there for each other's needs. Especially Tory who'll leave everything she's doing just to make certain you're happy.
- You couldn't be any happier.
