Joseph Quinn and characters imagines

hello angels! wow it's been a while since i wrote for my sweet boy Joseph. i'm continuing this series of nurseryteacher!joseph this is a fill in chapter, if anyone has any ideas on what they would like to see feel free to dm me, enjoy reading angels 🩷 ⚠️throw up warning⚠️

it had been a month since Joseph had asked you out and the dates had been constant. every Saturday the two of you would do different things whether the two of you went to the cinema, or for dinner or even just the two of you being in your apartment cuddling whilst watching tv.

Joseph didn't care what the two of you did, you were getting to know each other in your own way and he loved it. whenever Lizzie was there (which was rare because you didn't want to confuse her) she was ecstatic to see her new favourite person. Lizzie and Joseph were really close and he didn't want to be obvious to the other kids but she was definitely his favourite student.

she had finally come out of her shell and wasn't as shy as she was before he met her. well, she was still pretty shy in public places but in the classroom or in your apartment she was confident and it was so overwhelming to see. your beautiful girl finally having some confidence and the only thing you could do was thank Joseph.

he had helped her and you were so grateful. you and Joseph had spoken about your relationship and about how you should keep it a secret, it was unprofessional and the other parents would definitely judge the two of you. it wasn't any of their business but it was just a precaution the two of you wanted to take for Lizzie's sake.

it was another Saturday and Lizzie had been sick all night and all day and you'd never seen her like this. she was fine Friday morning and evening then she woke up vomiting all over her 'big girl bed' as she liked to call it. she had never been sick and it hurt your heart to not be able to take the pain away from her.

she was still so little and you felt helpless. she had been sobbing for hours and no amount of pain relief would stop it. so you were sat on the sofa with a sobbing Lizzie. she felt boiling hot but was tell you she was freezing so you had put a thin blanket over the two of you. the sick bowl was next to you just in case she was sick again and with the way she was acting you were just waiting for it and you were right, she would throw up yet another time.

it was around seven when you heard a knock at the door, it had been thirty minutes since Lizzie had last thrown up and her tears were still there but she wasn't sobbing. you were confused but stood up, holding onto Lizzie tightly making sure the blanket didn't fall off her body. you opened the door and saw a smiling Joseph dressed in a comfy t-shirt and some jogging bottoms.

"what are you doing here?" you didn't mean for it to come out as harsh as it did. his smile faltered "it's Saturday? you asked me to come round yesterday" you slapped your forehead and sighed, you had completely forgotten it was Saturday and you had planned a movie night with him.

"i'm sorry i forgot to call, she has been sick all day and it completely slipped my mind, sorry" you rubbed your forehead in embarrassment, how could you forget you two had been seeing each other every Saturday for the past month. "it's okay, i can come another day if you want?" you shook your head and moved to the side so he could come in.

"it's okay, you don't mind her being here do you?" he walked in and took off his shoes. "not at all" he smiled sympathetically, looking at the poorly girl in your arms. she was practically asleep now the only traces of tears were the tear streaks on her cheeks.

the two of you walked back to the living room and sat down on the sofa. Joseph wrapped his arm around your shoulder which made you cuddle into him. you breathed a sigh of relief and closed your eyes as you felt at ease for the first time that day. you were so tired, looking after a sick baby had worn you out.

"she been really sick?" Joseph asked looking down at you. you nodded, running your hand up and down Lizzie's back as she finally fell asleep. "you have no idea" you just couldn't help but feel bad for your poorly girl.

"i'm really sorry i forgot about tonight, it's just been so stressful-" Joseph hushed you, not in a rude way just to stop you from apologising again. "i promise it's okay, Lizzie is your main priority and always should be. you're a really good mum so what you forgot one date" he somehow always knew how to put your mind at ease.

"have you eaten today?" your heart melted, Joseph really cared about you and you'd never had anything like this in your life before and you were just grateful he came into your life when he did. you shook your head, you'd given Lizzie a few pieces of plain toast knowing she would probably throw up anything else you made her but you had forgotten to feed yourself.

you had been so worried about Lizzie eating didn't even cross your mind. "now that was silly wasn't it" he joked making you laugh along with him. "i'll order us food, you choose what to watch, i chose last time. do you want me to take Lizzie after? so you can have a break" he handed you the remote and looked through the different food options.

you shook your head again "it's okay, thank you though. i think if i move her off me right now she'll probably cry again" you scrolled through the different channels, picking a random film on Netflix and felt his arm go back around your shoulders with a small, delicate kiss placed on your forehead. you looked up at him and smiled, he was just so caring.

"i'm always here if you need me" he took his eyes off of the tv and looked down at you. you were smiling at him before he leaned down and kissed you. it was quick and wasn't the first time the two of you had kissed but each time it made your stomach fill with butterflies. it was safe to say you were definitely falling for him and you weren't complaining about it.
