Lego Movie 1. Chapter 1

A/N: Hey guys! So I'm basically making this a series of oneshots that either jump into my mind, or any requests or prompts you guys send in! So send them in dear readers, and give me something to write when I'm not writing Where Are You! :D

**Prompt:** Sometimes, Lucy wonders how she could be so lucky to have Emmet.

**Genre:** Romance, Friendship

**Characters:** WyldStyle, Emmet

* * *

Sometimes, Lucy wondered how she had gotten so lucky; how she had managed to have a guy like Emmet fall for someone like her.

They were polar opposites; she had a short temper where Emmet was soft and kind. She wore dark clothes, he wore light clothes. She listened to heavy music, he listened to dance music.

It was almost like they were two sides of a coin, completely opposite in every way and aspect of life.

Emmet would go above and beyond for her, buy her flowers days in advance and clean his apartment whenever she came over; it was gradually becoming more and more, and sometimes she forgot what her own looked like.

Lucy wasn't as prepared to please him, always rushing around the day before his birthday or Christmas, cursing slightly under her breath as she rushed around, trying to make things okay.

But Emmet never minded, always arriving with a grin and blushing slightly, as though they hadn't been dating and were still mere crushes.

Lucy knew that Benny and the other's watched from afar, grins on their faces - except Batman, of course - and she knew she didn't deserve him.

Sometimes, the fact that she hadn't believed in him from the start haunted her, and she was afraid that Emmet was going to wake up one day, realize it, and leave her. It never happened though, he'd always greet her with a hug and a kiss the next day and start on another long, winding tale that she listened to with half interest, happy just to listen to his voice and not his words.

She fully believed that the construction worker deserved better; someone who always believed in him, listened to his music, had a similar personality and was just as cheerful and bubbly as he was.

A selfish part of her wanted to keep him from the world, make sure no one hurt him or took him away from her.

She loved him far too much to lose him.

* * *

"Whatcha thinking about?"

Emmet's voice startled her from her thoughts, and she spun around to face the grinning construction worker - who had changed into an orange button up shirt and dark jeans, his hair still combed in the same comb over she both loved and hated - and she cursed herself as she realized they had organised a date.

"Just stuff," she leaned forward against his chest, and he wrapped his arms around her shoulders, grin fading slightly and his brow furrowing.

"You okay Lucy?"

WyldStyle didn't reply, and further buried her face into his chest, taking in the scent of his cologne. _Gosh,_ she loved him so.

"You deserve better Emmet."

Emmet's frown deepened, and he moved them to her couch, sitting down with his girlfriend curled into his side, face pressed into his shirt, "That's stupid."

WyldStyle couldn't help but laugh at his statement; it was so _Emmet_, and she loved him for it. She raised her head, staring into his light, confused gaze before she gave a small smile.

"You deserve someone who never doubted you Emmet," she mumbled.

Emmet stared at her, his gaze slowly turning to one of realization and he leaved forward, kissing her gently on the lips before he pulled her in for another hug.

"Vitruvius was the only one who believed in me from the start, so there's no one out there better then you."

WyldStyle swallowed thickly, letting the construction worker run a hand through her hair.

"I don't deserve you Emmet."

Emmet sighed loudly, "Of course you do! If you're willing to fight to keep me in your life, then you deserve to have me."

WyldStyle smiled and closed her eyes, "I love you."

Emmet smiled warmly, kissing the top of her head, "And I love you."

She still didn't believe she deserved Emmet, but that didn't mean she wasn't ready to fight to keep him in her life.

A/N: I'm bored... I think I'll go study for a geography exam...

I hope I'll get requests and prompts to keep this story going! I hope to hear from you! :D

Seeya!


	2. Chapter 2

**A/N: **As requested by **17blanceri**! :D

**Prompt: **Have a building contest and have Emmet, Lucy, Benny, Batman, Unikitty, and MetalBeard be the judges!

**Genre: **Humor, Friendship

**Characters:** WyldStyle, Emmet, Benny, MetalBeard, Batman and UniKitty with a guest appearance from GCBC.

**Words: **434

**Rating: **K

I do not own…

* * *

None of them could quite work out what had made Emmet think this was such a good idea, but they had all given up on trying to work out his ideas.

But nevertheless, they were all wearing official 'judge' badges, arguing over which invention was the best.

Emmet had voted for a food stand that served Tacos, ice-cream and hotdogs at once with the help of robotic arms.

WyldStyle had fallen in love with hair dye rack that mixed up any wanted color.

Benny had to be dragged away from a spaceship that just happened to transform into a robot soldier.

Batman had fallen in love with a sound system - that was painted black - and projected holographic music videos.

UniKitty had chosen to vote for a pink, marshmallow shaped pillow that shone slightly in the dark.

And MetalBeard had liked an old war ship model that someone had built out of small bricks.

"You guys are mental - a food stand that sells three different foods?! Come on," Emmet was waving his arms around, his eyes wide and WyldStyle frowned.

"A hair dye mixer is far more important! It saves having to buy it!"

Batman snorted, "Babe... Not a lot of people buy hair dye."

Emmet frowned at the nickname, "its better than an oversized sound system! You can already get one of those!"

"Not with holograms!"

"Ye lads are going about this all wrong... That ship be true art."

"It's not even an invention!" Benny retorted.

UniKitty jumped in, "It's not an inventing contest Benny! It's a building contest!"

"Which is why the replica ship be the winner," MetalBeard added.

UniKitty hesitated slightly, "That's not what I meant."

Emmet jumped into the center of the group, arms thrown into the air, "A food stand that sells three types of food!"

"Shut up kid!" Batman pushed him slightly and Emmet stumbled to the side, glaring at the Dark Knight.

"You're just jealous because Lucy-"

WyldStyle chose that moment to interrupt, "Okay, boys, stop it! Obviously we aren't getting anywhere here... We need someone to judge our choices."

Within the hour, they had Bad Cop standing in front of them, the officer gazing at the inventions in front of him, "I like the spaceship... It'd be a great investment into the police force."

Benny cheered, jumping into the air and flipping a couple of times. The others all frowned and grumbled a few times, watching as Bad Cop changed into Good Cop, who turned to face them with his smile.

"I like the food stand though."

The original judges all gave a frustrated groan.

* * *

**A/N:** I hope that's what you wanted 17blanceri, or something like it! I liked the idea myself... I will get around to all other prompts. :)

Thanks for reading, and I hope to hear any ideas or feedback you have! A special thanks to the following for reviewing last chapter;

	3. Chapter 3

**A/N:** So I believe this to be edger230's request... I liked it! :)

**Prompt:** Lucy and Emmet go on a date (I don't care where) and this one girl tries to flirt with Emmet (although he barely notices) and Lucy grows jealous.

**Genre:** Romance, Friendship

**Characters:** Emmet, Lucy

**Rated:** K+

**Words:** 640

* * *

To say Lucy was getting rather annoyed would be an understatement.

She was currently at a restaurant - not overly expensive but enough to get her into a black, simple dress rather then her hoodie and jeans - with Emmet, her hair down and slightly curled, the way she knew Emmet liked.

Even Emmet had dressed up; wearing a pale blue button up shirt, nice dress pants and his hair still in that comb over Lucy wanted to mess up so bad. He looked nice, and Lucy hoped she did to; (she was sure she did, he had been saying it far too much.)

But there was an obnoxious blonde at the next table, wearing a low cut, red dress and her hair styled as though she were from the 80's. Her lips were coated in lipstick and her eyes wouldn't stop straying to Emmet, Lucy's Emmet.

And Lucy was starting to get annoyed.

But Emmet was Emmet, and had no idea that he had a blonde who didn't know how to mind her own business - Lucy wanted to lean over and tell her so - and was so enthralled in telling Lucy about his day that he didn't notice.

Lucy doubted he'd notice even if he was quiet and a neon sign stood before him.

Their food arrived and it was pleasant, they talked and laughed and he held her hand over the table, his eyes looking around the restaurant, eventually meeting the blonde's own. He smiled, gave her a curt nod and his eyes returned to his own table before he erupted into another story that Lucy wanted to listen to with all her heart.

And she did, until the blonde came over and ran into - Lucy still didn't understand how she had managed it - the back of Emmet's seat, instantly bursting into apologies that Emmet waved away with a smile and simple question about her wellbeing.

Lucy decided then that she hated blondes who wore red dresses.

"You look cute, what's your name?"

Lucy breathed a frustrated sigh, staring unbelievably at Emmet as he thanked her, returned the compliment and told her his name.

"Emmet's a nice name. I'm Anastasia."

Of course she had to have had a unique name, and Lucy sent her a glare that could rival Batman's before she got to her feet.

"As nice as you seem Anastasia, I need some air. You coming Emmet?"

The construction worker finally caught onto the fact that something was wrong, even if he didn't know what, and he joined her, grabbing her hand in his and - after saying a pleasant goodbye to the somewhat miffed blonde - lead his girlfriend out into the back sitting area.

He turned to face her when they were alone, brow furrowed into a frown, "You okay Lucy?"

She blinked a couple time before she replied, "Yeah, that blonde was just getting on my nerves."

Emmet stared at her in thought, "She wasn't doing anything annoying though."

Lucy rolled her eyes, "Not to you she wasn't."

Emmet's frown deepened before realization set in, and he grinned suddenly, laughing and wrapping his arms around her shoulders, "You were jealous!"

Lucy scoffed, "I was not!"

Emmet rested his chin on her head and swayed them gently, "Yes you were!"

Lucy grumbled slightly and sighed, "Okay, maybe I was a little jealous. She was pretty."

Emmet leaned back and grinned down at her, "She was alright. No where near as pretty as you though."

Lucy blushed, letting him kiss her quickly and gently before he leaned back again.

"You don't have to worry though," he assured, that stupid, goofy grin she had come to love on his face, "I wouldn't give you up for anything."

But even though he reassured her; she still hated blondes in red dresses with unique names.

	4. Chapter 4

**A/N: LastOneOut** requested this one.

**Prompt:** Could you write one about their first kiss? (Lucy and Emmet I mean)

**Genre:** Hurt/Comfort, Romance

**Characters:** Emmet, Lucy

**Rated:**T

**Words:** 457

I do not own.

* * *

Emmet had lived alone for as long as he could remember, human interaction and touch becoming something of a myth to the construction worker. But then Lucy had walked into his life, along with a rag tag group of friends, and suddenly people were hugging him, laughing with him and generally enjoying spending time with him.

And Emmet wasn't use to it.

That was why he was always hesitant in hugs, or why he shied away slightly when Lucy held his hand in public, or tried to hug him when they were in his or her apartment; he wasn't sure entirely sure what to do.

He could tell Lucy was getting sick of it; they were standing in his kitchen and she had surprised him by wrapping her arms around his waste and he had responded by jumping back with a surprised shout, scrambling out of her arms and across to the other side of he rom, startled gaze resting on her slightly concerned and slightly annoyed face.

"It's just a hug; I'm not attacking you Emmet."

Emmet forced his breathing down slightly and grinned crookedly, "I knew that. You scared me is all."

Lucy frowned, seeing through the ruse and shook her head, "So... whenever I hold your hand, I scare you? Whenever I try to hug you, I scare you? Whenever Benny pats you on the shoulder, or MetalBeard rests a hand on your back, they scare you? Wake up Emmet, we can see something's wrong!"

Emmet stayed silent, staring at the floor with a sudden fascination, happy to count the blocks at his feet. He heard Lucy give a frustrated sigh, and he raised his head to stare at her, eyes widening suddenly at how close they were.

"Lucy, you don't understand. I lived years alone, without anyone touching me," he refused to look her in the eye, his own gaze flicking around his kitchen as though looking for a way out. "I'm just not use to it."

Lucy gave him a small, understanding look and placed a hand on his shoulder, her other reaching for his chin and forcing him to look her in the eye, "I love you Emmet, and no matter how hard you think it over, I will never touch you with the thought of hurting you."

Emmet opened his mouth to respond, but was cut off when her lips met his. He froze for a second before he melted into the kiss, noting how her lips tasted of that bubblegum lip-gloss she used so often and she noted how his lips tasted of coffee.

She leaned back and smiled gently at him, and he smiled hesitantly back, "We'll just take it slow Emmet."

He responded by kissing her again, and she pretended she didn't see the slight pause before he did.

* * *

A/N: I now really wanna find my Emmet. :P I had a really cliché and mushy one written up.. but I didn't think it suited their characters real well... but angsty Emmet is fun to write, so I changed it to an angsty Emmet one.

Thanks so much LastOneOut for the awesome prompt! And thanks again to the people that reviewed last chapter! I won't be able to update tomorrow, sorry, because I have a wedding.

**katgeek** (Well then... Emmetstyle? Galaxy Cop? Construction Cop? I literally will do anything... haha.)

**17blanceri** (You'll find out soon enough.) :P

**edger 230 **(Thankyou!)

**Sol's Darkness **(That's cool!) :D

**PyroPixels** (Pfft, I'm mean to be doing Geography right now... I just can't be bothered..)

**marshapono **(I love writing Where Are You. This is just for my creative outlet...) :P


	5. Chapter 5

A/N: So both of these prompts came from Smart Kira! Thanks :D I'm going to go ahead and guess you guys all like cute Emmet and Lucy fics :P haha, I don't blame you in all honesty. I've fallen for Galaxy Cop recently... haha

**Prompt One:** Write about Emmett and how much he doesn't deserve WyldStyle as much as he does.

**Genre: **Romance, Hurt/Comfort

**Characters:** Emmet, Lucy

**Rating:** K+

**Words:** 657

I do not own.

* * *

Emmet couldn't sleep, his thoughts wild and his heart heavy, and he forced himself to go for a walk despite the late hour. It was cool, and the sky was clouded over, the moon a wisp of a thing trying to break through the fluffy clouds. The few stars he could see twinkled dully, as though they too weren't feeling as happy as usual.

He didn't know where he was going, but found himself standing outside of Lucy's apartment door, fist raised and his mind telling him to knock on the door. He didn't have to though, because Lucy opened the door, staring at him in slightly annoyance.

Emmet noted how she was dressed in a black singlet and white shorts.

"Emmet, what are you doing?"

Emmet realized he must've already knocked on the door, "I can't sleep."

Lucy stared at him for a second before she opened the door further, letting the construction worker in and closing the door behind him, "Are you okay?"

Emmet turned to face her, and Lucy noticed just how upset he really was. She frowned slightly, grabbing his hands in hers and leading him towards the couch, "You can tell me anything Em."

Emmet smiled weakly at the nickname she had given him for when he was in such a state, and he buried his head in his hands, letting her rest a hand on his back and rub gentle circles to try and calm him down, "Lucy..."

"It's okay Emmet," she murmured, concern lacing her voice as she pulled him into her side, noticing how his shoulders shook slightly.

The Special took a shaky breath and raised his head, pulling away from her arms and looking her in the eyes, "We shouldn't be together."

Lucy felt her world freeze, staring at the construction worker before her in despair, "What? Why would you say that Emmet?"

Emmet rose to his feet and took a hesitant step backwards, looking around the room, "You deserve better Lucy... you gave up Batman for me."

He didn't understand why Lucy gave a small, relieved sigh and she took a step towards him, leaning up to kiss him gently and cup his face in her hands. He returned the kiss, ignoring the frustrated tears that threatened to spill over, and looked almost desperate when she pulled away, staring up at him with those dark eyes he loved with every fiber of his being.

"I always did know you were stupid," she said softly, taking his hands in hers again and smiling up at him gently before she kissed his quickly again.

"That's rude," he mumbled sadly, trying to take his hands away from hers, but she held on tightly, looking at him with a firm face.

"I love you Emmet... Batman won't ever stop that," she whispered, and Emmet groaned in frustration.

"You gave up that Dark Knight for a useless special-"

"Who saved the world and sacrificed himself for it," she cut him off, squeezing his hands, her gaze not leaving his. Emmet sucked in a small breath, feeling the tears start to leak over and run down his cheeks.

"That doesn't mean I deserve you," he answered, lowering his gaze to the floor. Lucy sighed softly, pulling him to her chest and cursing the self deprecating mood swings he had from time to time. She guessed it came from years of being alone.

"I'm not giving up on you Em. You're mine and no one else's, and I don't care how long it takes for you to realize it."

Emmet sobbed gently, burying his head into her shoulder, his arms tightened around her waist. He felt her gently kissed the side of his face, swaying the two of them on the spot as he cried softly into her shoulder.

Lucy didn't care how long it would take; she would make her boyfriend see that he deserved her just as much as she deserved him.

* * *

**Prompt 2:** Maybe write one when they have kids.

**Genre: **Family, Friendship

**Characters:** Lucy, Emmet, Benny

**Rating: **K

**Words:** 615

"Uncle Benny!"

Emmet raised his head from where he had crashed on the couch, blinking the sleep from his eyes as his five year old daughter jumped off of his chest and ran towards the Space Guy standing in the doorway.

"Emma!" Benny picked the brunette girl up and spun her around once, holding her to his hip as he entered the room, trying to stifle his laugh at the sight of a near passed out Emmet on the couch.

"Do you wanna take Luke with you?" Emmet mumbled and rolled over, an arm thrown over his eyes as Benny laughed.

"Where is he?" He laughed again when Emmet shrugged, and turned to look at the little girl in his arms, "How about we go find your brother?"

Emma gave a hasty nod and Benny placed the girl down on the floor, moving quickly to follow the running girl, gently tapping Emmet on the face as he passed and chuckling when Emmet groaned in annoyance.

"I went to school yesterday!" Emma turned to face him, jumping up and down on the spot and grinning up at the Master Builder.

"Really? How was it?" Benny grinned as she took a deep breath, listening with a grin as Emma babbled her story about her day of school, and how she had painted and played dress ups and learned something horrible she called 'Mafs' in her cute, childish voice.

Benny loved both of Emmet and Lucy's kids, happy to play the role of Uncle and take them to the park when it became too much for the young parents.

It was obvious it was too much at the moment when he entered Luke's bedroom, finding Lucy dressing a three year old Luke into an orange shirt and dark pants. Lucy looked like she was about ready to pass out, and informed Benny that Luke had been particularly bad last night, and Emma's nightmare hadn't helped.

Benny tried not to smile as she passed Luke off to his arms, thanking him profusely for looking after them for the day. Benny did nothing more then shake his head, and he couldn't help but laugh when he walked past a snoring Emmet, and he knew the moment he left Lucy was going to join him in the world of dreams.

"Can't wait until you have your third," Benny winked, bouncing Luke on his hip and grinning as Emma rounded on her Mum.

"I'm getting a sister?" Emma's face held a childlike joy that Benny fell in love with, and Lucy shot Benny a glare.

"I hope not... you two are more then enough," Lucy mumbled, kneeling in front of her daughter and kissing her forehead gently, "You behave for Uncle Benny, okay?"

Emma rolled her eyes, "Yes Mum."

Lucy smirked, "Look after your brother too."

Emma scrunched up her nose, "But he smells funny."

Benny choked back a laugh and Lucy blinked a couple time, fond smile lighting up her face at her daughter's words, "So did you at his age."

Emma looked offended, but gave her Mum a goodbye hug, waiting impatiently as Lucy kissed Luke's head.

"Thanks again Benny."

Benny heard Emma call his name from the front garden, "No problem. I'll have them home by dinner time."

He did, in fact, have them home by dinner time, both parents looking far more awake and active then earlier, Emmet in the kitchen and Lucy cleaning the lounge room. After saying a quick goodbye, both Luke and Emma hugging him, the later thanking him before running to 'help' Dad in the kitchen, Benny left and made his way home.

He fell asleep the moment he was on his own couch.

	6. Chapter 6

**A/N:** I love this idea :) thanks heaps to a Guest who came up with the idea!

**Prompt:** Whenever Emmet, Benny and Good Cop are together Wyldstyle is half annoyed but half amused at how chipper and happy the three are. In contrast, Bad Cop, Batman and Wyldstyle turn the mood down a few notches when they hang out. Emmet tries to be "cool" like them but he's too sweethearted and ends up making Wyldstyle laugh at his attempts.

**Genre:** Humor, Friendship

**Characters:** Pretty much everyone save MetalBeard and UniKitty.

**Rating:** K

**Words:** 554

* * *

WyldStyle never completely enjoyed when Emmet, Benny and Good Cop got together - Bad Cop always promised to stay hidden during the get together - and only showed up because Emmet asked her.

And frankly, she couldn't say no to those big, pleading eyes he always gave her, cheeky grin alight on his face. So she tagged along, sitting awkwardly but slightly amused during the whole gathering.

The three were always so chipper, so eager to laugh and joke and grin as though there was nothing wrong with the world, and WyldStyle, at times, wanted to slap them all across the face and wake them up from their perfect dream world.

But at the same time, she always found herself chuckling at their sudden gasps as they remembered an old story, sipping away at her drink as they babbled and laughed away.

She could remember one time when the four were together, and Benny was talking about one of his space adventures, Good Cop complimenting while Emmet sat in eagerness, mouth gaping as he nodded at Benny's words.

WyldStyle had tried to listen, but found herself lost to the story and staring out a nearby window, only returning to the group when she heard them laugh, slightly annoyed at just how long they laughed for.

But in reality, she didn't mind attending the get togethers, happy to see her Emmet laughing and not caring about whatever was going on.

She always dragged him along to hers.

She didn't know if she brought him along because he was her boyfriend, or because he was always amusing at the group events.

On occasion, Batman, Bad Cop and herself would get together at a cafe, find a corner and talk about whatever business needed to be talked about.

Emmet was always bored within minutes, fiddling with the napkin and folding it into whatever shapes he felt like. WyldStyle always watched him out of the corner of her eyes, their differences obvious to anyone who was near.

He always made an effort to join in in the conversations - she guessed it was because he was trying to prove himself when Batman was around.

She could remember one time when they were comparing scars, WyldStyle showing one she got on her forearm from a nasty battle, Batman a knife wound to his side and Bad Cop a scar on his shoulder from when he was shot once.

Emmet had joined in there, babbling away about the scar he had on his wrist - WyldStyle could barely see the thing - from when he had fallen at the construction site one day.

Batman and Bad Cop had burst into slightly harsh laughter, and Emmet had pouted in his Emmet way and turned to look at WyldStyle. She had merely chuckled and thrown an arm around his shoulders, pulling him into her side with a bemused roll of her eyes.

His pout had vanished almost instantly, and he seemed happy to lean into her side for the rest of the meeting.

The two men had stopped, and the three of them had continued their conversation, Emmet no longer listening as he leaned into his girlfriend's side.

It was safe to say that neither enjoyed each other's get togethers, but they still tagged along, if only to spend the day together.

**A/N:** This turned out mushier then I originally thought it was going to be... But I still love it! Thanks so much to the person who suggested this! Sorry my updates have a been more then a little wacko, I've just had a lot of stuff happen over here these last few days.

	7. Chapter 7

A/N: Another one of 17blanceri's prompts :)

Prompt: So what happens if a bank robbery is going on and both Batman and GCBC show up to handle it?

Genre: Drama, Humor

Characters: GCBC, Batman

Rated: K+

Words: 452

* * *

Bad Cop pulled up in a flash of blue and red, throwing himself from the car and towards the crime scene, shouting into his communicator the details of the crime, Good Cop occasionally adding a please and thank you.

Bad Cop withdrew his hand held, back against the outside of the bank entrance and he peers around the aide before he stepped in, hands outstretched before him, finger on the trigger.

"What do you think you're doing?"

Good Cop appeared, smiling a d turning to face the Dark Knight, "Heya Batsie!"

Bad Cop clicked back into place, grumbling as he did, "Solving a crime in my city."

Batman scoffed from his upside down position, "I don't see your name on it."

Bad Cop's glare doubled in intensity, "You can't write you're name on a city."

Batman raised an eyebrow, "I built buildings in Gotham that spell Batman."

Good Cop appeared, "That's cool!"

Bad Cop forced him away, glaring at the vigilante before him, "This is my city, and therefore any crime in the city is dealt with by me."

Batman huffed, "I'm Batman; I'm a far better crime fighter then you."

"You wear tights."

Batman looked offended at the deadpanned statement, "Its lycra, not tights.

Bad Cop huffed,"Ain't no difference from where I'm standing."

Batamn growled, landing on his feet and stalking towards the cop, "Listen here, Bad. I'm a crime fighter, so I fight crime. You're a cop; you eat donuts and do paperwork."

Bad Cop grabbed the front of Batman's disguise, pulling him towards him and snarling in his face, "My city, my rules. If you don't like them... Get. Out."

Good Cop reappeared, letting go of Batman and hastily apologizing. The Dark Knight merely growled, turning when a squad of backup officers burst into the room.

"Sir?"

Bad Cop appeared and nodded at the officer, "About time you showed. Search the place for any sign of who it was."

The squad nodded, taking off towards different areas of the bank, Batman still glowering at the Cop, who glare back.

"I'll find that criminal first; just you wait."

Batman snorted, "If coming in second place means first."

The next weeks were spent in a flash, Bad Cop spending dat and night trying to solve the crime first. Batman worked just as hard, often giving up nights of sleep for the sake of his ego.

It ticked both of them off to no end when they arrived with the solutions at the same time, and an argument claiming the other for cheating broke out, Batman throwing his batarangs as he dodged the incoming chairs.

If Good Cop were to be honest, he found the whole thing more then a little silly.

A/N: GCBC has to be the hardest for me to write... I hope you still liked it 17blanceri! :D

Thanks to everyone who has reviewed! I can't do responses, because I have a geography exam I have to go to now, and I'm throwing this up because I'd rather you read it today rather then tomorrow. Thanks guys!


	8. Chapter 8

A/N: I'm 99.98 % sure that this prompt belongs to Smart Kira! I hope you enjoy this :)

Prompt: In my opinion maybe you should make the next chapter something like WyldStyle or Lucy couldn't break up the fight that was about to start between Batman and Emmet and WyldStyle watches the two men fight over her.

Genre: Romance, Friendship

Characters: Emmet, Batman, WyldStyle

* * *

The two of them often got into arguments, Emmet normally unaware of the icy barbs Batman would send his way, until the Dark Knight snapped at the construction worker's ignorance and deadpanned his opinion; that Lucy had enjoyed the relationship she had had with him far more than the one she had with Emmet.

Emmet would always look hurt at first, glancing with an unsure expression towards his girlfriend before retorting with his own comeback.

It was never long before they were throwing insults at each other while WyldStyle looked on in a mix of amusement and annoyance.

She'd always sigh as Batman stood with his arms crossed against his chest while Emmet's arms thrown wild in the air.

* * *

"Babe, come look at this."

WyldStyle rolled her eyes slightly as she moved from Emmet's side - not noticing the slightly hurt and annoyed looked that flashed across Emmet's face - to stand next to Batman, hoping whatever it was he wanted to show her was somewhat interesting.

"You know; she's not your babe anymore."

Batman straightened, scowl fixing itself on his face and he turned slowly to face the slightly ticked off Special. WyldStyle made a face and turned to face both of them; it was the first time Emmet had initiated an argument.

"What's that kid?" Batman gruffed, arms crossing against his chest and scowl fixed on the construction worker.

Emmet swallowed, gaze flicking between WyldStyle and Batman before he coughed slightly, "She's not your babe... technically, she's mine."

WyldStyle smiled in amusement at Emmet's words, and she saw Batman stiffen slightly, "Calm down guys; Emmet's right Batman, you don't have to call me Babe anymore."

But Batman's frown deepened, "It's a nickname; the kid needs to learn to get over it and grow a sense of humor."

Emmet let out a short laugh, "Me, get a sense of humor? You're the dark and brooding one."

"Which is totally what WyldStyle saw in me," Batman interrupted, standing slightly prouder at his words, and WyldStyle wanted to slap her hand to her face in frustration.

She did let out a short groan and close her eyes, "Guys, it doesn't matter-"

"If she saw that in you, then why did she choose me?"

WyldStyle groaned louder and did slap her hand to her face.

"She felt sorry for you, simple."

WyldStyle winced slightly, knowing that that line always hit a nerve with Emmet; the Special was constantly worried about only having friends because they felt sorry for him.

"That's a lie."

Batman huffed, "You even believe what I said!"

When Emmet didn't reply, WyldStyle moved away from her viewpoint, seeing just how upset Emmet was, and placed a hand on Batman's shoulder, "You know that's not true Batman."

"I don't even know what you see in him; he's weak and tiny!"

WyldStyle knew Batman wasn't deliberately being as mean as he was being; he was just being as blunt as ever, and she wanted to hit him for it. Emmet shifted slightly, hands behind his back and gaze lowered to the floor.

"He's sweet and thoughtful; he's kind and caring and funny and special in so many ways; that's what I see in him," WyldStyle broke the silence, and Emmet looked at her with a small smile.

Batman huffed, and turned to look at WyldStyle, realizing - from the subtle glare she sent his way - that he may have gone too far with his insults.

"Fine, whatever, so did you want to see this thing or not?"

WyldStyle gave a small nod, smiling at Emmet as he smiled back, a slight blush playing on his cheeks.

She was just happy that she had managed to stop another argument.

* * *

A/N: This turned out slightly more angsty and romancey then I thought it was going to be; I just imagine Emmet always being somewhat afraid of being loved and liked because people feel sorry for him - he didn't have any at the start of the movie after all.

A huge thanks to the following people;

\- **edger 230** (Haha, thanks! I'm glad you liked it!) :D

\- **17blanceri** (Well hello there Mel. :P You can call me Taylor! I'll type up a UniKitty one shot for you.) :D

\- **Marshapono** (I'm glad.) :)

\- BritishWaffleSyrup (Haha, I actually like that idea. I have another wedding idea for the next chapter, so I'll combine the ideas and make a longer chapter.)

**\- Random person** (Of course! Sick Emmet it is.) :)

**\- Marzipan Magic** (That sounds like something I can put some angst into, which is what I like writing best, so of course I'll do it! I rarely say no to an idea anyway… thanks!) :D


	9. Chapter 9

A/N: Sol's Darkness requested both of these, and I hope they live up to your expectation. (I only did Dick Grayson, because he's the only Robin I've ever gotten to know a whole heap about. I don't want to butcher the other characters is'all.)

I didn't do the Ninjago one; I tried but I've only ever seen a few episodes here and there, and not in ages because Dad cut pay TV, so I wasn't happy with the characterizations. Lloyd for me is easy, because he's the one I always liked the most so I paid attention to him. The others I've forgotten. So sorry about that one Sol!

**Prompt:** Pre-movie, WyldStyle goes over to Batman/Bruce Wayne's house to meet him for a date, and meets Dick Grayson, Jason Todd, Tim Drake, and Damian Wayne with their respective personalities. And having answered the door, not having been told anything about her, and having been trained as Robins, they go all 'ninja' on her until Bruce can intervene.

**Genre:** Humor, Friendship

* * *

WyldStyle had never been inside Wayne Manor, despite her relationship with Batman. But she had finally managed to convince the Dark Knight - who had finally opened up enough to tell her his first name - to go out with her on a date, and he agreed to meet her at his place.

WyldStyle, at first, thought it was odd for her to pick him up, but shrugged it off as one of his quirks.

And boy did he have his quirks.

She walked up the gravel path, wearing one of the nice, black dresses Batman had bought her and the pearl necklace he had given her, taking in the breathtaking scenery she knew Alfred spent countless amounts of hours with.

She had also heard that he made a mean batch of cookies, and made a mental note to visit for dinner and dessert one time, if only to taste them.

She hummed to herself and found herself standing in front of the large door. She knocked gently, hearing the sound echo loudly in the hall of the manor.

The door swung open, and she smiled and was about to greet her date but froze, finding herself staring into the face of a teenage boy with ebony hair and sapphire eyes.

She had heard news reports and even Bruce on the odd occasion discuss the billionaire's ward, Richard Grayson, and she was finally happy to meet the teenage boy.

WyldStyle's plan didn't work out entirely as she had hoped for, though, and she found herself being launched at by a rather agile Dick Grayson, who held her wrist in his vice grip and stated her down.

"Who are you? Only authorized personnel get through the gate."

WyldStyle raised an eyebrow, "I am authorized personnel."

Dick frowned, "Name?"

WyldStyle breathed a sigh and tilted her head in annoyance, "WyldStyle."

The teen looked suddenly confused, and he regarded her with curiosity, "Are you a DJ?"

"No!"

Dick 'ahhed' before his light frown reappeared, "Why are you here."

"To see Bat-Bruce."

Dick's eyes widened before he hissed accusingly, "How do you know he's Batman?"

WyldStyle closed her eyes, mentally begging Bruce to come save her, and answered with, "We fight crime together occasionally - we're both Master Builders. We're also dating."

But Dick continued frowning, "Impossible. He tells me everything, I'm Robin."

"His sidekick?"

Dick sent her his own version of the Batglare, and she shuddered slightly, "Partner. Not sidekick."

She gave a small nod and gave him a smile, "Just let me see Bruce. We have a date."

"Dick!"

Dick let go of her wrist and spun around to face Bruce, looking slightly ashamed when he finally realized that WyldStyle was, in fact, not an intruder. He spun back around, crooked grin flashing into his face and he gave a short bow her way, "I apologize. I thought you were an intruder."

WyldStyle waved it off, "We all make mistakes. You ready Bruce?"

Bruce was wearing a nice, dark tuxedo, his hair slicked back. He turned his glare into a slightly fond smile and nodded, stepping forward and taking her hand in his, "I'll be back later Dick. Don't forget your homework."

Dick rolled his eyes and mocked a salute, grinning at the couple, "Have fun, don't get too carried away."

They heard his cackle as he made his way inside, closing the door after him.

"Interesting character he is."

Batman shrugged, "Only decent kid I've met."

WyldStyle gave a small smile, and let him lead her to his car collection.

A/N: There you have it! Sorry it's short...

Would you guys prefer me throw two prompts together at once? Or keep it up like this? Thanks!

	10. Chapter 10

**A/N:** These prompt belongs to... Katgeek and BritishWaffleSyrup :) thanks so much! I combined the two because they were similar.

**Prompt One:** What about a wedding? - Katgeek

**Prompt Two:** What if Emmett and Lucy got married, and Benny was the pastor? And then he replaced some words during the ceremony with spaceship or something to that amusing extent? - BritishWaffleSyrup

**Characters:** Pretty much everyone.

**Genre:** Friendship, Romance

**Rating:** K

**Words:** 1213

* * *

Emmet really couldn't believe it was happening; he was standing in front a full length mirror, Benny slightly off to the side with his large grin, and Batman in the back corner of the room, looking as bored as ever.

He didn't really pay the two any attention, far too busy with smoothing down his suit, fiddling with his hair and altogether trying not to panic. He was dressed in a nice, dark tuxedo, orange shirt visible from underneath the jacket, black tie running down the front of his shirt in a straight line. His dress pants reached his shoes, flaring slightly over the black dress shoes, and his hair was combed in it's usual comb over, lifted slightly at the back.

"Do I look formal enough? Or should I change shirts?" Emmet knew he was rambling, but was far too gone in his own panic to care.

Batman merely huffed a groan and rolled his eyes, and Benny shook his head and smiled, "You look fine Emmet. I'm sure she'll be happy."

Emmet nodded once and turned to face the space guy - who wore a light grey tux with a pale blue shirt and bow tie - and smiled.

"You know, she's really happy you didn't wear your helmet."

Benny pulled a face, tuffs of blond hair falling into his eyes as he did, "I miss my helmet."

Emmet grinned and patted him on the back, "Man, I knew there was a reason I chose you as best man and the pastor."

"Why did I get stuck as the other wimp then?"

Emmet turned to glare softly at the Dark Knight, who had refused to take off his mask for the event, "Because Lucy needs someone to dance with Wonder Woman later on."

Batman rolled his eyes and sighed, "Fine! If you losers are done having a bromance, lets get outta here and get this thing over with."

Emmet and Benny merely smiled as they followed Batman out of the apartment and into the Batmobile, Emmet's nerves wrecking havoc as he did so.

* * *

They had decided on a small wedding, with a few, close Master Builders - GCBC and President Business being an exception - present. It was in a small park on the outskirts of Middle Zealand, a few Hobbits serving as hosts and planners for the young couple. MetalBeard had opted to stay during the days leading up, helping out with preparations.

He greeted the three as they arrived and climbed from the vehicle, and Emmet managed a small, shaky smile as he did.

The park really was beautiful, with fairy lights strung through the trees and an arch covered in bright, colorful flowers set beneath the bows of two particularly large trees. The seats were white, and Emmet could see the blue and pink bows that were used as the color scheme around the place.

"It really is beautiful MetalBeard," he thanked, and the three men made their way to the front of the aisle.

Emmet felt his nerves really kick in when people started arriving, all dressed neatly, wearing small smiles and greeting Emmet with hand shakes and pleasantries. Lloyd had been far too enthusiastic, and ended up almost balling the soon to be married man over. Benny had managed to answer most of the questions, and Emmet focused on not turning and hiding somewhere.

How he hated being nervous.

Eventually the crowd had all arrived and taken their seats. Emmet glanced briefly at Benny, and the Space Guy shot him a thumbs up as encouragement.

And then the music started playing.

UniKitty came down the aisle first, the pink princess wearing a necklace of blue with numerous flowers weaved through her tail. She looked liked the definition of excitement, and she barely contained a squeal of glee when she reached Emmet and made her way to her designated spot.

Wonder Woman wasn't far behind, wearing a pale blue, one shoulder dress that reached the floor, little crystals creating a flower pattern up one side. Her dark hair was curled back, pale pink flowers woven throughout, and Emmet swore he saw Batman shift slightly.

Lucy came last, and suddenly Emmet felt nothing but warmth at the sight of his bride, smile splitting his face in two. She wore a gown of white that fitted her figure, reaching the floor to flutter around her ankles. It was strapless, and a gold sash ran around her waist and the top of the dress, shining like a

beacon of light. It was a simple dress that shimmied silver in the setting sun, and the blue and pink flowers clasped in her hand matched perfectly. Her own hair was let loose around her chin, curled slightly and pinned back on one wide with a silver flower clip.

Emmet doubted he had ever seen something so beautiful.

She joined him with a smile, and he smiled back, the both of them refusing to look anywhere but the others eyes.

"You look... Lovely," he breathed, and she blushed slightly.

"As do you."

Emmet grinned once more.

"Ladies, gentlemen and spaceships!"

Emmet and Lucy frowned at each other in silent amusement, turning to look at Benny in wonder.

"I welcome all of you today to this beautiful ceremony between two equally beautiful people. If any of you object, please speak now, or else feel the oncoming onslaught of my spaceship," Benny continued as though one had noticed his added additions of the word spaceship, but Emmet was positive people realized. He didn't really care, and judging by Lucy's amused look, she didn't either.

"The first time Emmet saw Lucy was when she was looking for the piece of resistance. The second time was when she saved his life. After that second meeting, they stayed by each others side, Lucy saving Emmet's life almost as much as spaceships have saved my own. But today, we celebrate the eternal love between the two, their passions bursting like my spaceship when I start it up."

By now the room was almost in laughter, and Emmet and Lucy were in similar situations, both questioning the choice of having Benny as the pastor. Finally, he turned to the two.

"Emmet, do you take Lucy to be your wife, your partner in life and one true spaceship?"

Emmet choked back a laugh as he slipped on her ring, and Lucy rose her gaze to the sky in amusement, "I do."

"And Lucy, do you take Emmet to be your husband, your partner in life and one true spaceship?"

Lucy grinned slightly as she slipped on Emmet's ring, and the construction worker chuckled, "I do."

"Then I pronounce you space and ship! Emmet, you may now kiss your-"

Emmet waved a hand at him, "Spaceship, yeah, I get it."

He stepped forward as the area erupted in laughter and lay his lips on hers in a soft, loving kiss. She returned the kiss and rested her arms around his shoulders as his encircled her waist.

They leaned back with crooked smiles on their faces, UniKitty cheering in delight and Benny clapping louder then anyone else, having tossed his script behind him in celebration.

Neither of them would forget the ceremony, or what the other looked like.

Or Benny's choice of words.

**A/N;** So this prompt is from **ThatOneGuest**! Thanks for the request! It is a Construction Cop oneshot, so I won't be at all offended if next to no one reviews or reads this chapter; I know that there aren't a lot of fans for this around.

* * *

Emmet groaned as he opened his eyes, gaze drifting to he clock on his bedside table. It was early morning, just after three, and he rolled onto his other side, throwing his arm out and fully expecting it to rest over the shoulder of his beloved.

Instead, he found the opposite side of the bed empty, and he frowned as he lifted his head up and off of the pillow, looking around the room in search of the boyfriend. He found only the pressing dark of the night, and he breathed a tired sigh before hauling the blankets off of his body and forcing himself out of the warm bed and into the cool of the night.

He rubbed his eyes as he stumbled - still half asleep - out of the bedroom and into the darkened lounge-room, peering into the dark in search of the Cop. When he found no one he continued into the kitchen, blinking rapidly as the light assaulted his eyes and raising a hand to block the hanging light. His eyes adjusted to the light and he squinted at the table and the hunched figure of the cop, still wearing nothing but a pair of dark tracksuit pants, with a mug of steaming coffee in front of him,

Emmet doubted he had drunken any of the liquid, and he wandered over, picking up the mug and helping himself to the hot liquid as he lowered his body into the next chair.

Bad Cop lifted his head out of his hands to watch Emmet, and the construction worker stared back at him as he took another long draught of the drink.

"What are you doing up love?"

Emmet shrugged a shoulder and put bot hands around the mug, savoring the warmth it gave him, "I could ask you the same question."

When Bad Cop gave a half amused, half annoyed grunt in response, Emmet proceeded, leaning towards him slightly, "What's wrong Bad? You can tell me anything; I don't judge!"

Bad rested his head in his hands once more, and Emmet gave a frustrated sigh and leaned back again, taking another drink of the coffee. They sat in silence, Emmet

waiting for his boyfriend to tell him what was wrong as Bad waited for the construction worker to go back to bed.

The officer broke the silence first, rising his head and staring into Emmet's bright, sleep laden gaze, "Go back to bed love; you have work tomorrow."

Emmet frowned, "But... so do you..."

Both sides of the officer loved everything about Emmet, but they both - even though Bad tried to hide it while Good shouted it to the heavens - adored the cute, oblivious side to Emmet. Sure, sometimes it got annoying, but the majority of the time it was unbelievably adorable.

Emmet put the near empty mug on the table and reached out to grasp one of Bad's shoulder's in a tight grip, "Tell me what's wrong. I can't sleep until you do."

Bad refused to look his boyfriend in the eye, and instead focused on the dark sky that stood watch outside the kitchen window.

He loved the view from Emmet's apartment.

"It's my fault," his voice was thick and he swallowed the lump that grew in his throat. He felt Emmet move his hand up to his cheek, and he found his head forcibly moved to look into Emmet's worried gaze.

"Nothing is ever your fault Bad..."

"You're wrong," Bad reached up and rested a hand over Emmet's and shook his head, "I Kragled my parents; the two people who trusted me, loved me, and I tossed that back into their face."

Emmet shook his head firmly, "You tried to stop it, you tried to fight it Bad, but Business-"

Bad's hold on his hand tightened, and Emmet withheld his wince as a jolt of pain traveled through the limb. He got to his feet, moving himself so he was sitting in Bad's lap, and he placed his other hand on Bad's still free cheek, looking his lover in the eye.

"They forgave you Bad; it was a mistake; they're not dead! They love you, I love you-"

Bad looked up at him, his throat and chest tight, and he swallowed before he let out a small, pent up sigh, "I don't deserve you."

Emmet smiled his crooked smile that they loved so much, "No one does; I'm the Special."

Bad gave a small smile at Emmet's attempt at a joke, knowing full well the construction worker was joking, and he leaned up to capture his lips in his. Emmet kissed him back, feeling both of Bad's hands rest over his own.

"Where would I be without you Special."

Emmet looked thoughtful before he grinned, "In that smelly, old apartment you use to call home."

Bad smiled and rested his forehead against Emmet's, and the construction worker smiled before he closed his eyes. They sat in silence, Emmet's fingers tracing circles on the side of Bad's face as their foreheads rested against the others, both listening to the other breathing.

Emmet was starting to drift back off to sleep before Bad moved his hands to rest around his hips, and he leaned back slightly to look at him in confusion.

"Good wants a kiss..." Bad blushed slightly, and his other side kicked in, instantly grinning and leaning up to capture Emmet's lips in his own.

Emmet didn't waste any time in kissing the nicer side of the cop, hands falling to rest around his neck as he did so.

When they pulled apart, Emmet smiling drunkenly, Good said something that made Emmet's joy turn to anger.

"Business never apologized for what happened."

Emmet frowned at him and opened his mouth before closing it again, staring at the cop before him in disbelief.

"What?"

Good shrugged and smiled sadly, "Bad blames himself to much."

Emmet nodded in agreement and leaned to kiss his forehead gently, "That he does."

Numerous soft kisses and tender, reassuring words later they collapsed in bed, Emmet instantly wrapping an arm around Good's shoulder, mumbling a goodnight into the bare shoulder he had buried his face into.

"I love you both."

"And we love you love."

They fell asleep peacefully, not waking until their respected alarms rang early the next morning.

* * *

They didn't have another conversation until that night at dinner, where Bad Cop suddenly placed down him cutlery to peer at his boyfriend in wonder, "You know, the weirdest thing happened at work today."

Emmet merely raised his eyes to glance at Bad as he continued eating, and Bad Cop gave a small hum and nodded.

"President Business came down. He apologized for what he did. He looked rather startled, too. You wouldn't know anything about that... would you?"

Emmet made a face and snorted into his food, watching with a happy smile as Good Cop switched in and winked before helping himself to the plate of food before him.

Emmet grinned more to himself then anything and continued the dinner he had prepared for the two, his heart light at the sight of his now happy - as happy as possible in Bad's case - boyfriends.

He loved them both to bits.

	12. Chapter 12

**Requested By:** Sorida

**Prompt:** ever since Emmet became a Master Builder, plans for things just pop into his head at random. So in the middle of a sentence, he'd start rambling schematics and no matter how hard he tries, he can't hide it from the others.

**Characters:** Emmet, Lucy, Benny and UniKitty

**Genre:** Friendship

**Rating:** K

**Words:** 877

* * *

Emmet stood with hands against his chest, Benny lazily floating to his left and Lucy kneeling on the ground to his right. UniKitty bounced ahead of them, her voice carrying ideas and plans for Cloud Cuckoo Land to the three Master Builders.

It was Saturday morning, and the four of them had gotten together in order to plan and start rebuilding the devastated realm. UniKitty was, by far, the most excited of the ground, and the other three were just happy to lend a hand.

"What if we place the disco place over by the-"

"Why do you guys even need a disco place? Isn't the whole realm just one, giant disco?" Lucy interrupted, standing up and thrusting her hands into her pockets.

"It's more of an event type thing; for big parties, weddings, stuff like that," UniKitty replied, smiling at her fellow female Master Builder.

Lucy gave small nod and turned to Emmet, "Any ideas Mr. Construction Worker?"

Emmet let his arms drop by his side, "Maybe we should rebuild The Dog first; make that the centre of the realm and then build around-"

It was almost suddenly that the codes and brick types burst before his eyes, enticing him to build a new, improved version of The Dog right there. His hands itched to pick up blocks and rearrange them in the correct order, and he hadn't realized he had trailed off and fallen into an almost trance like silence until Lucy griped his shoulder and shook him gently.

He blinked, the world focusing in around him, and he found himself staring into the slightly worried face of his girlfriend.

"Emmet, you okay?" Benny spoke up from beside him, floating around until his was hovering just behind Lucy, the face behind his helmet as worried as Lucy's was.

Emmet forced a smile, "Yeah, just had an idea is all."

Lucy seemed happy with the response and let go of his shoulder, and Benny seemed to shrug and continue to float around in lazy circles.

"Do you want a spaceship dock? You know, for when I visit?"

UniKitty almost grimaced, "No offense Benny, but your spaceship dock wouldn't exactly fit into Cloud Cuckoo Land's atmosphere."

Benny gave a small frown and made a disapproving sound, "What where you saying earlier Emmet?"

Emmet's eyes widened when he remembered, "Oh, right. As I was saying; if you rebuild The Dog first, you can make it the centre of Cloud Cuckoo Land and rebuild the rest of the realm around it. Make it like a monument type of thing."

UniKitty gave a sudden, wide grin, "That's perfect Emmet! If we rebuild it just over there, we can make the realm into a sort of pattern."

Emmet gave a nod, "Exactly; from above-"

"In a spaceship."

"Yes Benny, in a spaceship, it'll look like a pattern and well planned out." Emmet finished, shaking his head with a fond smile at Benny's interruption.

"I have to agree with UniKitty; that's actually a well thought out plan," Lucy added her own thoughts, and Emmet smiled proudly at her, not caring that she slapped his arm playfully and rolled her eyes.

"So we start with The Dog then!" UniKitty cheered and jumped down, making her way to the place where the new Master Builder headquarters would be placed and rebuilt by the end of the day.

Emmet took of the read of the group, Benny zooming past him and laughing as he flew through the air, and Lucy walked just in front of him.

"What colors should we use?" UniKitty spoke up from where she had chosen to place the building, and Emmet opened his mouth to reply.

However, instead of the names of various colours coming from his mouth, he started rambling schematics, and the other three, present Master Builders shared a confused look.

Lucy reacted first, gripping Emmet's shoulder in one hand and spinning him around to face her, "Hey, Emmet! Look at me."

Emmet did as he was told and shook his head, smiling sheepishly, "Sorry; I just had an idea…"

Lucy looked at him, "Again?"

Emmet hesitated, "It was the same idea as before; I just keep getting ideas for ways to improve The Dog; make it better then it was before, you know?"

Lucy gave him a small, amused smile, "I know what you mean; you haven't yet honed your skills."

Emmet looked suddenly embarrassed, but UniKitty saved him by jumping in between the two, "You know how to improve it? Oh, Emmet, you do have amazing plans! You have to tell me every detail that comes to mind, okay?"

Emmet, taken aback by the princess' sudden burst gave a startled nod, and Lucy watched as he followed UniKitty blindly, all the while rambling schematics and plans that UniKitty listened to with earnest.

Benny floated next to her, landing softly and shooting her a smile, "You know, even if Vitruvius did make up the prophecy, he does have a gift with building things."

Lucy rolled her eyes, fond smile gracing her lips, "He really does Benny. He really does."

The two of them shared a look before joining in on rebuilding The Dog, Emmet leading them and shouting any new ideas of schematics that burst before his eyes.

	13. Chapter 13

Requested By: A Guest and SilverHandwriting (I combined the two to make the chapter longer)

Prompt: First child (Guest) and Son/Daughter going through puberty (SilverHandwriting)

Characters: Emmet, Lucy, Benny, UniKitty

Genre: Family

Rating: K+

* * *

Emmet can still remember when he first held Emma in his arms, the little girl staring up at him with wide, dark eyes behind her eyelashes. The top of her hair was covered in small, thin tuffs of brown hair passed down from her father, and Emmet was instantly wrapped around her little finger.

There had been nothing wrong with the birth, and both mother and daughter were allowed to return home to their little, three bedroom country house they had bought on the outskirts of Bricksburg, Emmet's original, one bedroom apartment no longer having enough room to support the growing family.

They had done her room up in a pale purple – UniKitty had been head of designing the room for the little girl, everyone agreeing that WyldStyle wasn't the most girly of girls – with a white floor. The pink crib was on one corner, a chest of draws and changing table against another wall. The walls were decorated with pictures of butterflies and fairies and Emmet knew that WyldStyle had just bought whatever UniKitty suggested.

They didn't let her sleep in the crib for the first few months, leaving her in a little carrier with a padded bottom, and it never took long for mother or father to climb out of bed and wrap her up in their arms, cooing softly until she fell back asleep.

The first night in her crib had been tiresome, and Emmet had let Lucy sleep the night away, opting to check on his little Emma himself. Hour later, he had found himself still in the rocking chair in her room, staring down at her face with a fond smile as she slept peacefully. Morning had come, the sun shining through her window with a sense of warmth, and Emmet fell into a deep sleep in the chair, Emma still sleeping in his arms, and that was how Lucy had found him hours later.

The first time Lucy had walked was when Lucy had taken her to the park. Emmet was at work at the construction site, and Lucy had decided on taking the little, 9 month year old to the park instead of sitting inside the house like they usually did. She had taken a blanket, placed it down on the ground and let Emma crawl around.

It was almost suddenly that Emma pulled herself to her feet and took a few, short, unstable steps before she crashed onto her bottom, and Lucy had wasted no time in picking her up and grinning proudly at her daughter. Emmet had been both ecstatic and disappointed, and spent the next week until she took another step trying to coax her into doing so.

Her first word had been, to both parents disappointment, 'Pacetip!', and Benny had merely shot the two a smug grin, head raised proudly as both parents glared at him. They didn't glare for long before Emmet spun his girl around, praising her and trying to get her to say 'Daddy' to no avail. Lucy had merely shook her head with a fond smile and returned to her previous job, Benny still smiling his smug smile.

Emma was two when Luke was welcomed into the family, and both parents could easily remembered how jealous the two year old had quickly gotten over the attention Luke was getting. It took numerous weeks and many tantrums for them to finally teach the little girl that she was loved as Luke was, and that they weren't replacing her.

Emma had instantly fallen in love with Luke, and promised to take care of him no matter what.

Emmet had cried on her first day of school, brown hair brushed up into a loose side ponytail, dark gaze almost annoyed at her father's tears.

"I'll be fine Daddy."

Emmet had merely smiled and kissed her forehead, "I know. I love you."

Emma merely gave a small wave and ran off, "Love you too!"

* * *

When Emma was fourteen and Luke was twelve, Benny had showed up one night looking thoroughly annoyed and angry.

It was late afternoon, the sun starting to set and Emmet was busy with dinner, Luke doing his homework at the kitchen table as usual, when the Space Guy had knocked at their front door.

Lucy moved from her spot on the couch, walking past the arched entranceway to the kitchen, and opened the door, instantly coming face to face with an angry Benny and annoyed Emma.

"Benny, Emma, what's the problem?" Lucy heard Emmet put down his appliances in the kitchen, and she felt his arm around her waist within seconds.

Emma refused to look anywhere other than at her feet, eyes mere slits in her face as she scowled.

"Kindly tell your daughter that doing graffiti to the side of my spaceship is off limits," Benny didn't hesitate to push Emma forward, the teen stumbling into the room slightly and crossing her arms against her chest, glaring at her adopted Uncle from behind her brown fringe.

"Of course, thanks man," Emmet let Lucy drag their daughter further into the house as he said he's goodbyes to the blue clad Master Builder, trying not to grin at the sight of the pink words that spread against the side of his blue spaceship.

He breathed a heavy sigh and closed his door, making his way into the kitchen just as Luke walked past, "Where you going bud?"

Luke looked up at him, dark hair pushed away from his face and green eyes slightly wide, "I'm going to go hide into my room while your argument with Emma blows over."

Emmet let Luke walked towards his bedroom, arms filled with homework, and he entered the kitchen to find Emma sitting at the table with her arms crossed and Lucy passing backwards and forth.

"You can't just vandalize someone's belongings Emma!"

Emma groaned, "It's an old spaceship Mum! He can just build another one!"

Emmet shook his head and leaned against the wall, "You know how much Benny loves his spaceship Ems."

Emma rolled her eyes and Lucy turned to face her, "Why would you even think about doing it?"

"Avery said-"

Emmet interrupted, "So if Avery told you to steal Bad Cop's morning croissant you'd do it?"

Emma sighed, "You don't understand Dad. Avery said that he didn't think I'd do it; that he thought I was boring. I was just trying to impress him is all."

Lucy sighed and took a seat at the table, sharing a look with Emmet, "Hun, I know you think Avery is a friend, but-"

"No, Mum, he is a friend. You all think he's not because he wears black and lives alone but that all just a stereotype! He's kind and sweet and far better than any of the other guys in my grade!" Emma sat up straight as Emmet took his own seat at the table.

"We're not judging-"

Emma looked at him incredulously, "Yes! Yes you are, that's all you guys ever do! You want me to be with some new, hotshot Master Builder like you guys but that's not going to happen! Avery and I are close and that's that. He wanted me to graffiti Benny's spaceship and I did… it was a joke, nothing more!"

Emmet sighed and decided to let Lucy handle the rest of the situation, mumbling something about going to help Luke with his homework after checking on dinner.

Lucy waited for Emmet to leave before she spoke up, leaning across the table to grasp one of Emma's shoulders gently, "Ems, I love you. So does your Father, you know that. We just worry. If Avery is as good a friend as you say, okay, we won't stop you from seeing him. But please, next time he tries to get you to do something so, so stupid, use common sense and say no."

Emma looked at her Mum and bit the inside of her lip gently before giving a small nod, "Can I go for a shower?"

Lucy gave a small smile, "Of course. However, tomorrow after school you'll be going straight to Benny's and apologizing."

Emma looked startled, "But Mum-"

"You'll also be cleaning his spaceship without complaint, understood?"

Emma looked like she was going to argue, but groaned and nodded, "Okay, fine. Tomorrow after school I'll do that."

Lucy smiled, "Exactly. Now go have a shower, you smell like Batman after a week in the Batcave."

Emma crinkled her nose, "Ew, thanks Mum."

Lucy winked, "You're welcome."

	14. Chapter 14

**Prompt By:** Myself (I was going to post a request today but I had this idea and though why the hell not?)

**Prompt:** Emmet always wondered who his Dad was, but now that he knows, he's not sure he wants to.

**Characters:** Emmet, Business, Lucy

**Genre:** Family, Hurt/Comfort

**Rating:** T

* * *

"He's… he's my Dad?" There was no mistaking the broken tone in Emmet's voice, and Lucy winced as she reached forward to wrap him up in her arms, his forehead against her shoulder.

For weeks Emmet had been bugging her about finding out whom his real parents were and, even though they hadn't found anything on his Mother, she had found out his Dad. At first, she had recoiled at the idea and refused to let Emmet know, but he had eventually found out that she knew and begged her to tell him.

And now he was in her arms, body rigid in shock and confusion as the thought jumped through his mind.

"He tried to kill me," the words were whispered into her shoulder and she rocked him gently on the spot, head turned so her chin rested on the top of his brown hair.

"I know Babe, I know. But he's good now."

But Emmet shook his head, "But he tried to kill me… he tried to kill his own son."

Lucy didn't answer, pulling away and staring into Emmet's shocked eyes in concern and wonder, "Are you going to talk to him?"

Emmet hesitated before nodding, "I'm going now… are you coming?"

Lucy shook her head, "You need to do this alone Babe. I'll be here if you need."

Emmet nodded, grabbed his keys and left the apartment.

* * *

Octan tower was busy when Emmet arrived, and the nervous feeling in his gut turned to one mixed with anger and anxiety. He forced himself out of the car, almost slamming the door behind him before he made his way inside, pushing the glass doors open with force and pushing through the busy building entrance.

He reached Business' office in less the twenty minutes and his anxiety was suddenly forgotten, replaced with a raging anger that turned his expression dark. Without a second thought he slammed the office doors open.

Business glanced up instantly at him, eyes wide before he realized it was Emmet, and he smiled at the Special, "Oh, it's just you Emmet, how can I-"

"Afternoon, _Dad_," venom spat from Emmet's words as he stood, shaking in anger just before Business' door.

Business' expression turned to one of shock before morphing into one of regret, and he sighed deeply before pushing up from his chair and making his way slowly around the table and towards Emmet, "Look, Emmet, I know what this looks like, but I can explain."

"Well you better start soon because I want answers!"

Business looked wearily at Emmet's angry expression and held up a hand, "It's a long story… do you want to get coffee or…?"

"I want you to tell me why you never told me, not coffee."

Business sighed before nodding and gestured for Emmet to take a seat on one of his comfortable couches in the corner. Before long, the two were sat, Business leaning back in his chair while Emmet sat on the edge of his, almost as though he were ready to lunge at the President.

"When you were born, I was just elected President. Your Mother," Business paused, a fond smile lighting up his face before he spoke once more, "she was beautiful. You have her eyes, actually. She had blond hair – the blondest hair you would've ever seen – and beautiful brown eyes. She loved you and named you Emmet for unknown reasons, but I know she adored you."

Emmet breathed a shaky sigh as the mental image of his Mother flashed before his eyes and he felt his anger wash away, "What happened to her?"

Business looked up at him in sadness before continuing, "She died. You were only three weeks old and so full of life. It was my day off and she had gone up town to collect a small amount of food for that evening's dinner. She was hit on the way home; another, large car ran into hers. She died on impact."

Emmet felt tears burn the corner of his eyes, and he rubbed at them furiously.

"I couldn't look at you; you looked so much like her; you still do," Business was looking at the floor now, tears welling in his own eyes, "So I gave you up. I made it a closed adoption; I never wanted to see you again."

Emmet let a small sob leave his lips before glaring at the older man through his tears, "So that was it? You stopped loving me just like that?"

Business looked him in the eye, regret shining like a beacon, "Quite the opposite Emmet; I loved you far too much to even look at you. You reminded me of her, reminded me that you would grow up with me as a Father, a man who was far too busy running the Universe at the time to look after a child. I wanted you to have a loving family to raise you, rather than a busy man who couldn't do the job properly."

Emmet shook his head, "I would've known you though, and we could've had the odd day together!"

Business didn't say anything at first, wiping away the tears in his eyes with a finger, "I started organizing Bricksburg shortly after you were gone; I wanted order, I wanted the chaos gone. I kept telling myself that if I had of done it sooner, your Mother would still be alive."

Emmet took a shuddering breath and bowed his head, his tears running down his cheeks in rapid waterfalls, "She sounded beautiful."

Business laughed, "She was beautiful and so full of life. Nothing could ever get her down; she was always happy, always smiling. To her, everything was awesome."

Emmet sobbed openly, burying his head in his hands as he cried, his shoulders shaking at the thought of his Mother; the amazing, full of life, beautiful woman he would never meet.

"I loved her so much," Business let out his own pent up sob, and Emmet pushed himself from his chair, wrapping his arms around Business' shoulders and placing his head on the man's shoulder. "I never thought I'd see you again my boy."

Emmet didn't respond and let himself cry, feeling Business' arms wrap around his own shoulders tightly as the man cried himself.

They didn't move until Emmet finally separated the two, both having stopped crying long ago. He smiled weakly at Business, and the President smiled back.

"I know I have a lot to be sorry for but, do you think that maybe we could get coffee? Try and make up for lost years?" there was a hopeful tone to Business' words.

Emmet smiled softly, "I'd like that. Maybe you could tell me more about Mum?"

Business nodded and gave a happy smile.

	15. Chapter 15

**Requested By: **The Wild West Pyro

**Prompt: **Emmet and Lucy go on adventures with Johnny Thunder, and Lucy ends up saving Emmet's life.

**Characters: **Emmet, Lucy

**Genre: **Friendship, Adventure

**Rating: **K+

**Note:** So I may have only just seen Mr. Peabody and Sherman and stolen the whole tile idea from it... *scratched head awkwardly* I don't own it though!

* * *

Emmet groaned as he hugged the wall, squeezing his eyes shut and refusing to move from his spot. He could feel Lucy beside him, her arm pressed against his as she stood frozen on the spot.

"If you ever suggest we do this again, I'm staying home," he hissed through his teeth, pressing his back against the wall as hard as he could and he felt her gently slap his arm in annoyance.

"Well why didn't you stay home in the first place?"

"Because you begged for me to come!"

"I never beg!"

"Oh, right! Oh Emmet! Please come on this adventure with me and Johnny Thunder! I promise that they'll be no bad guys around," Emmet rose his voice into a high pitched sound, opening his eyes and pulling a face as he spoke. He barely registered the glare Lucy was sending his way, ignoring the harder slap she sent against his arm.

They fell into a silence when they heard heavy footsteps move past the room they were hiding in, Lucy peering out of the door and into the deserted corridor as the thing turned around a corner, "Good news Emmet, we can leave. Bad news, you're going first."

Before Emmet could reply she pushed him out through the door, the construction worker stumbling and regretting his decision to imitate his girlfriend's voice. He spun around and looked at her in a mixture of anger and shock and she smirked smugly at him as she joined him in the hallway.

"Are you done making fun of me?"

He grumbled a reply and followed as she made her way down the hallway, ducking around a corner and almost running straight into her as she stopped.

"It's a code; we have to step on the right tiles or else."

"Or else what?" Emmet looked at her with raised eyebrows and she shrugged.

"Something painful probably."

He gulped.

She went first, jumping from tile to tile while muttering a sentence that Emmet really didn't understand until she was on the other side, "Your turn Emmet, just step on the ones I stepped on!"

Emmet stared dumbfounded at the tiles, mind drawing a blank as he tried to figure out what ones she had stepped on. He looked up, meeting her face that was rapidly changing to one of disbelief at his oblivious nature, and he took a hesitant step first, wincing until he realized he had stepped on the right one.

With his confidence renewed he quickly made his way across the tiled floor, jumping onto the last tile and grinning at Lucy.

Only, she wasn't smiling back.

Instead, she had one of her palms against her forehead.

It was almost as if on cue that the ground below him started rumbling and he stumbled to the side, falling onto the ground and groaning as his arm slammed into the hard ground below him. Behind him, tiles started dropping and he just noticed how the ceiling – that decided it wanted to be full of sharp, dangerous looking spikes – was reaching down towards him.

So Emmet did the one thing he could do right.

He shouted out in fear.

Lucy groaned and dashed forward, grabbing his forearm in hers and pulled him after her, out of the tiled room, the two rolling to a stop mere meters away as the spiked ceiling made contact with the few remaining tiles that hadn't fallen from the floor.

Emmet breathed heavily, eyes squeezed shut as Lucy pulled away from him, getting to her feet and almost glaring down at him.

"Am I dead?"

Lucy rolled her eyes and kicked his side gently and he opened his eyes, accepting the hand she held out to him to help him to his feet.

"Mate! You're not dead!" Johnny Thunder appeared, hair wild beneath his hat and khaki clothes stained with dirt.

Emmet started at him in shock and spluttered his words before answering properly, "Where were you five minutes ago?"

Johnny looked at them and shrugged, "I was exploring the temple mate. Turns out, it ain't as deserted as we previously thought."

Emmet closed his eyes and groaned.

Lucy didn't try to hold back her tears as her knees slammed against the ground below her. Her heartbroken sobs tore from her throat as he clutched the ripped and bloodied construction worker's shirt against her chest. She didn't register the hand on her shoulder or Benny's words as he tried to get her to move, because she couldn't. She couldn't focus on anything but the ground before her, the green splattered with blood - _Emmet's_ blood - where she had found his shirt.

It was like watching him jump into the abyss again, her heart shattering into thousands of sharp shards that stabbed into her insides, making her stomach twist in pain as the tears fell down her cheeks. It was worst this time; she didn't have the end of the world taking away her thoughts, distracting her from the prospect that the one she loved was dead.

She didn't know what had happened; Business had warned them of something going wrong in the far corners of Middle Zealand and she and the group – with the added extra of Good Cop/Bad Cop – had joined in. Towards the end of the battle she felt suddenly lighter, the realization that they were winning sinking in.

And then the nearby building had exploded, sending debris raining down and the thick smell of smoke towards her. There were a few screams from the people trapped inside and Emmet – stupid, courageous _Emmet_ – had rushed in, pushing the people out.

Lucy had only just seen the cuts and marks that marred his body before he leapt into the building.

She had helped put out the fire, fear twisting her gut when she realized Emmet hadn't gotten out of the fire with the other survivors. She spent hours lifting burnt beams and tables out of the way, tears rising and falling as she realized that he wasn't inside the building.

That was what lead her to where she was now, finding his shirt and the blood against the ground being the last thing that crushed her heart and dampened her spirits.

"There's no way he could've survive Lucy. We've looked everywhere," Benny had knelt down beside her, looking through his own tears into her eyes and she sucked in a calming breath, nodding various times as though to try and let the idea sink in.

But it wouldn't.

The astronaut eventually dragged her off with the help of Batman, pleading shouts of Emmet's name tearing from her throat in desperation, his name reaching above the trees as she tried, in some way, to get him to come back to her.

She wanted to hold him one more time, feel his arms around her waist. She wanted to taste the coffee that always seemed to linger on his lips.

But that wasn't ever going to happen again and her legs fell out from underneath her as she realized it, Benny and Batman holding her up and dragging her to the Batmobile as her harsh sobs echoed around the quiet town street, the few, remaining Master Builders staring at her with broken looks.

* * *

Emmet brushed his hair out of his eyes as he stood outside the funeral parlor, staring in through the window with a furrowed brow as Lucy took up the microphone. She looked hauntingly beautiful in her long sleeved, knee length black dressed, hair still tied up in the sideways ponytail and her pink and blue streaks faded with grief.

She spoke in a quiet voice, her tone hollow and eyes dry as the words left her lips. He swallowed the thick lump in his throat as he quietly pushed the door open, mentally cursing himself for not arriving sooner to reassure her that he wasn't dead.

He slipped inside, coming to stand at the back next to Bad Cop, who glanced over at him before double taking, glaring at him from behind his sunglasses.

"Kid, if this is some sort of sick joke, I suggest you stop pretending to be Emmet and leave," the threat was whispered harshly at the Special and Emmet rose his hands.

"Bad, it's me, Emmet. Look, it's a long story and I need to see Lucy as soon as possible."

Bad looked him in the eye, noticing the sincerity in his words and gaze before he nodded and gripped his upper arm, "Up you go kid."

Before he could answer Emmet was pushed forward into the centre of the room, Bad Cop calling for Lucy's attention and pointing at Emmet. The whole room turned to look at him with shocked expressions, a mixture of dry and teary eyes staring up at him. He felt his face grow warm and he coughed awkwardly, refusing to look elsewhere but up at his girlfriend who stared down at him with little emotion on her face.

And then she all but ran up to him and he opened his arms as a smile split across his face. He noticed the tears that welled up in the corner of her eyes and his smile vanished when she slapped him hard across the face.

"_Ow_, Lucy!" he brought a hand up to his cheek and stared at her dejectedly as she glared at him. She seemed to be shaking and he wasted no time in letting his arms wrapped around her shoulders, crushing her against his chest as she cried, her sobs sounding through the room as she clung to the fabric of his simple, pale blue shirt.

"You're dead."

"Well… that's actually a long story. You see, I had to get rid of my shirt because it was annoying me being so ripped and bloodied and whatnot, but I fell unconscious a hundred meters or so away under a tree. There was a few orcs coming around the side and I was in no condition to fight, so I hid. Do you know how long it takes to walk between realms? It takes forever," he mumbled his story into her hair, eyes closed as he inhaled the scent of her perfume, his own eyes tearing up as she shook in his arms. "But I assure you; I'm very much alive."

She pulled back and kissed him on the lips and he melted into the kiss, forgetting that he was standing in the middle of a crowded room, letting his arms drop to around her waist as her hands cupped his face gently.

"But your shirt… there was blood."

Emmet winced and pulled back, lifting his shirt up to show ugly bruises and scabbed over gashes that ran down one side, "I'm not the best warrior there is."

Lucy shook her head and glared up at him through her tears, "You have a lot of making up to do."

Emmet hesitated before smiling softly, "Actually, I have the perfect idea."

And that was when he got on one knee, digging into his pocket as she raised a hand to her lips and shook her head in shock.

"Lucy," he took out the ring box and opened it, watching as tears spilled down her cheeks and she sobbed quietly, "Will you marry me?"

She vaulted herself into his arms, knocking them both to the floor and kissing him once more, nodding against his own head as she did so.

"Of course you idiot, it's about time you ask."

They heard UniKitty give an excited squeal from up the front of the room, MetalBeard and Batman grunting about how it was about time they got around to it, Benny gasping as he came up with space themed weddings. Bad Cop merely smirked as he leaned against the wall, Good Cop cheering slighting in the back of his mind.

Lucy ignored the room, smiling down at Emmet as he smiled up at her, the two completely lost to the worlds at they focused on each other and the prospect of being married.

* * *

**A/N:** I do love a happy ending. Gotta run guys; I don't know if I'll update in the next few days. I'm off to the coast but I'll try to update if I have spare time.


	17. Chapter 17

**Requested By:** HayaMikia and a Guest

**Prompts:** **HayaMika:** Benny tells Emmet about Moppy and gets upset and Emmet comforts him.

** Guest:** A Benny and Emmet hurt/comfort

**Characters:** Benny and Emmet

**Genre:** Friendship, Angst, Hurt/Comfort

**Rating:** T

**NOTE:** I'm mixing both scripts a little here HayaMika, so Benny won't seem as… 'mad' as he does in the original script, but still slightly out of it… if that makes any sense..? That also means the whole Moppy thing won't be the exact same either because, well, Emmet's only just finding out.

* * *

"Man, there's nothing like a hot coffee after a day of work in the middle of winter," Emmet crashed into his couch, leaning back and lifting the hot coffee cup to his lips, taking a long draught. Benny nodded from beside him, sipping gently at his coffee as he stared forward.

Emmet glanced at him briefly before sighing and leant forward, gently putting down his coffee cup and leaning back into the chair, arms crossed against his chest, "Okay man, what gives? You're all distant and acting weird."

Benny didn't look up from his coffee cup, grip tightening on the cup and Emmet saw how the soft material of the cup Benny had bought from the coffee shop crunched slightly in his hands.

"If you don't want to talk about it, I can put some TV on; Lucy won't be home for a couple of hours so I'm not making dinner just yet."

Surprisingly, Benny took a deep breath and shook his head, "No, I want to talk about it."

Emmet didn't reply, instead made himself comfortable in his seat and grabbed his coffee cup once more, more for the warmth the cup brought to his hands then for the liquid inside.

"There was one time when I was in space," Benny took a small, calming breath and swallowed thickly, "I was repairing my ship when my helmet first had its crack in it. People tell me I should've died, or gotten Space Madness…" he trailed off and frowned slightly before looking back at Emmet. "But I'm not dead, I'm right here…"

"So?" Emmet was afraid of the answer, shifting slightly as his insides twisted, coffee long forgotten in his hand.

Benny shrugged, "I guess that means I have Space Madness then… right?" he looked almost hopeful as he stared at Emmet and the construction worker smiled through the jarring pain he felt in his chest.

"You're not mad Benny, you're you and there's nothing wrong with you."

Benny nodded to himself more than anything before he continued, "I had a co pilot once."

Emmet raised an eyebrow at the sudden change of conversation and nodded for him to continue, Benny shuddering slightly as he did, "He's name was Moppy. He was really well organized too, but he could get annoying, telling people just how lonely I was in space, trying to get people to talk to me and be my friend."

Emmet listened with a growing sense of sympathy and guilt, the pain in his chest growing as he tried to wonder just how lonely Benny would've been, "And were you? Lonely, I mean?"

Benny nodded rapidly, "Yeah, all the time! I mean, I had Moppy and I know I have you guys now, but I still miss Moppy."

"What was Moppy like?" Emmet smiled at the thought of Benny's co pilot, probably a man around Benny's own age, friendly and carefree in his actions.

"He was a mop."

Emmet's view of the co-pilot crashed around him and he forced himself to not choke and stare at Benny in disbelief. He blinked, raising his coffee cup to his lips and taking a large mouthful as Benny sobbed once and rubbed at his eyes. The words Space Madness ran around the construction worker's mind and he forced them away, taking a small, shuddering breath that Benny didn't notice.

The Special sculled the last of his coffee and threw the empty cup onto the coffee table, scooting over to Benny and wrapping his arms around him in a hug. The Space Guy was crying now, tears falling from behind his cracked mask and down his face.

"Moppy- he was the only one that cared for me when I was alone up there. He was the only one who talked to me," Benny's sobs increased and he dropped his coffee cup, the lukewarm liquid creating a wet, sticky puddle on the floor at his feet.

"He talked like this," Benny raised his voice, talking in the voice Emmet held no doubt he used when he talked as Moppy, "Did you meet my friend Benny? He's the best! But he gets lonely sometimes."

Emmet closed his eyes as he felt an overwhelming sadness clench at his heart and he tightened his arms around his friend – his brother – as Benny leaned into him slightly.

"And he's gone-"

"Benny!" Emmet forced the name out and Benny shifted slightly to look up at him. "He's- he's not gone. He's still with you, you know that. He's probably watching over you-"

"From mop heaven?"

Emmet nodded sullenly, "Yeah, from mop heaven Benny. He's with his friends and family, and he's so proud of you and everything you've done and achieved," his voice caught in his throat and he choked back a concern sob for his friend.

Benny didn't reply, but stared forward at the blank TV, Emmet's strong arms around his shoulders reassuringly, the words echoing in his mind.

"Emmet, do you think we can hold a funeral for him? He was my co-pilot after all."

Emmet nodded briefly, "Just you and me man. We'll take your spaceship into space and hold a private ceremony."

Benny smiled, "I'd like that and I think Moppy would too."

Emmet nodded again, taking a deep breath and letting go of the smaller Master Builder, forcing a happy smile, "I'm sure he would love that."

And if anyone noticed the concerned looks Emmet would send Benny's way, or the soft words they would exchange every now and then, they didn't say anything.

Because they were brothers and not matter how weird either of them acted, the other was always around to pick him back up.

* * *

**A/N**…. Gosh… I think I tore my own heart out writing that… I'm not the biggest know-it-all with the whole Moppy thing, but because I'm combining both scripts, I just killed him off as best as one can kill off a mop… I'm not actually sure if Benny still had him at the end of the original script or not.

*whispers* I have Lucy hair…

	18. Chapter 18

**Requested By;** I think that this was requested awhile ago and somehow didn't make it to my list. It crossed my mind while watching tv. I was like 'Gosh Taylor you can be stupid sometimes! How can you forget to put down a prompt on a sheet of paper when you read it in your emails?'

**Prompt:** The others find out how UniKitty deals with her anger and they try to help

**Characters:** Main group

**Genre:** Friendship, Hurt/Comfort

**Rating:** T (due to the one off use of the word 'jerk'...)

* * *

UniKitty growled as she slammed the door behind her, prancing her way into her living space – made entirely out of pink blocks with different colored furniture – and sat down on the couch, glaring at the TV she rarely used as anger coursed through her system.

She had just had an argument with the Dark Knight, her patience snapping as he made a rather rude comment about Cloud Cuckoo Land that sent her into a fit, yelling insults at the Dark Knight as he yelled insults back.

In the end, Lucy had dragged Batman away, Emmet gently trying to lead UniKitty away before she had snapped and said she was going home, tinged slightly red as she made her way from The Dog and towards her little home on the outskirts of Cloud Cuckoo Land.

She grumbled as she heard a loud knock on the door, ignoring Emmet's concerned shouts of her name and Benny's cheerful additions explaining how almost everyone had had a go at Batman for being a jerk as usual.

She felt hot, angry tears threaten to spill over and she shook her head, forcing them back and continued glaring at the blank TV, tail curled around her and thumping against her couch harshly.

"UniKitty? I know you're in there… I think."

UniKitty had to smile slightly at Emmet's small comment, the Special still a little lacking in his self confidence then she would have liked. But she didn't get off of her seat, still deciding on curling up and trying to control the raging anger that coursed through her system.

She grumbled as she jumped off of the seat and made her way into her room, slamming the door loud enough to ensure that the others knew she was home and hopefully telling them that she wanted to be left alone. She grabbed the blanket she used on cold nights, dragging it back to the lounge room and curling underneath it, burying her head from sight as best as possible, almost as though she was shutting out the world.

* * *

Emmet groaned as he knocked on the door again, Benny floating just behind him and Lucy standing with his free hand in hers. Batman was off to the side, arms crossed against his chest, MetalBeard towering over him and glaring down at the Dark Knight accusingly.

"UniKitty, please, just open up," Emmet pleaded through the door, leaning his forehead against it and sighing in defeat, Lucy squeezing his hand gently and pulling him from the door.

She knew Emmet was far too friendly and rule abiding to actually open the front door to someone's house without invitation, and this was proven right when she opened the door and stepped in, his surprised gasp following her as he informed her of how rude it was to enter someone's house without clearance.

"Calm down Brickowski," she muttered and he followed her in, Benny floating in last while MetalBeard stayed outside – he was much too large to actually fit inside – to watch a sulking Batman.

Lucy, made her way around the small house until she finally entered the lounge-room, eyes resting on the rising and falling form that was hid beneath a purple blanket. She sighed and moved to sit next to it, gently resting a hand on what she guessed to be UniKitty's head judging by the horn, and she felt the form stir slightly underneath her.

"Emmet?"

"Lucy," Lucy replied in a gentle voice, not tearing her gaze from the form as Emmet sat on the ground in front of the couch and Benny floated nearby.

"I thought I locked the door," UniKitty poked her head out from under the blanket, blinking at the light the blanket had blocked out.

Emmet smiled at her from his spot on the ground and shook his head, "Lucy opened it; I tried to warn her but… it's Lucy."

UniKitty smiled weakly before sniffling and Benny floated closer, looking slightly worried as he watched her, "You know, it's okay to cry. We're your friends, we'll help you."

"Thank you," her voice was soft and shook slightly as he sniffled again, a few stray tears leaking from her large eyes. Benny merely nodded and smiled in reply.

"UniKitty," Lucy was quick to address the issue before her, and the princess turned slightly to face her, "why are you under the blanket?"

UniKitty jumped out from underneath it, the purple material falling into Emmet's lap and clashing with the orange of his shirt, "It's what I do when I'm angry; I huddle beneath the blanket until I feel better. Normally it works."

Emmet frowned down at the blanket in his lap, "That's not healthy UniKitty, keeping things bottled up like that."

Benny agreed instantly, "Emmet's right, next time, come and find one of us!"

Lucy was quick to add her own part, "And we'll help you through it. Besides, there's someone outside who wants to help you." She pushed up from the chair and left the house, glaring at the still sulking Dark Knight.

"You get in there now and you apologize," she hissed the words quietly in hope that the Master Builders inside wouldn't hear, and Batman glared at her slightly.

"It's not my fault that Cat has emotional prob-"

Lucy was suddenly in front of him, looking angry and worried all in one, "Batman, get inside and apologize. She buried herself under a blanket to feel better."

Batman didn't reply but felt MetalBeard flick him on the back of the head slightly and he glared up at the pirate, "Fine! I'll go and apologize to the Cat." He grumbled as he walked inside, Lucy following behind.

"Ca- UniKitty," Batman fidgeted on the spot as he watched UniKitty on the couch, Emmet and Benny both adverting their eyes to the floor as he entered.

"Batman?" UniKitty asked with her soft voice, and a pang of guilt stabbed the Dark Knight in the chest.

"I'm – I apologize for what I said earlier," he held his head high as UniKitty smiled, leaping from the chair and almost hitting Emmet in the head as she bounded up to him.

"Oh Batman, I forgive you! You should be nicer about Cloud Cuckoo Land though," she nuzzled his arm slightly and he recoiled at the touch before gently resting a hand on her head awkwardly, trying to offer as much comfort as he could muster.

Lucy sat down on the couch, pulling a face as Emmet lifted the blanket and draped it over his head.

"You know… I can kind of see how this works."

She rolled her eyes at her boyfriend's antics and UniKitty turned to face them before she pulled a face, "Please take that off Emmet; the purple really doesn't go with the orange of your shirt."

Lucy barked a short laugh, the other occupants of the room laughing slightly as Emmet shrugged the blanket off and blushed slightly.

	19. Chapter 19

**Requested By:** A Guest

**Prompt:** Galaxy Cop

**Characters:** GCBC, Benny

**Pairing:** Galaxy Cop, Coppernauts, Space Cops, GCBCxBenny, whatever you call this ship

**Genre:** Hurt/Comfort, Friendship, Romance

**Rating:** T

* * *

It was Benny's pained whimper that brought Bad Cop back to his senses, letting go of the bloodied shirt tangled in his grip. He spun around as the man fell to the floor, wary police officers making their way to his prone form and dragging him to his feet and out of the room.

Bad Cop paid the other officers no attention, kneeling down next to the curled form of his little astronaut, gently picking Benny up with an arm under his knees and behind his neck, cradling the whimpering heap to his chest, pained gasps fogging the glass of Benny's helmet.

Good switched in, being the better comforter of the two, and mumbled small reassurances as he stepped out from the room, instantly making way for his parked police cruiser. He could tell that Benny was on the verge of tears, the smaller man holding back his cries as best he could to impress the cop.

He slid Benny into the passenger seat and knelt down as low as he could, gently unlatching the clasp on the Master Builder's helmet and sliding it off over his head, messy blond hair falling limply into Benny's face. Faded bruises littered one side of his face from where he had been hit, the inside of his helmet forced to slam into his cheek. Good gently ran a hand over the fading bruises, apologizing softly when Benny recoiled at the pressure.

"What'd he want Benny buddy?" his voice was small and gentle, Benny sniffling and giving a small, half hearted shrug that Good knew was a lie. But he was far too worried about Benny's current state of mind to press any further and, forcing the rising anger from Bad down, unzipped his jacket and slipped out of it. He leant back down towards the Master Builder, Benny leaning forward and helping as best he could with shaking hands as Good draped the dark jacket around his shoulders as a form of comfort, zipping the oversized article of clothing up, Benny's arms still inside the dark material.

The astronaut looked suddenly smaller and more vulnerable, and Good wasted no time closing the door and sliding into the driver's seat. He glanced back at Benny, Bad instantly taking over at the embarrassed and pained tears in Benny's eyes. He breathed a rough sigh, hands gripping the steering wheel tightly as he drove them out of the parking lot.

He couldn't quite remember how it had all happened. Benny had begged him all afternoon to take him on patrol with him that night, the Cop eventually cracking when he saw the wide, blue eyes that Benny shot up at him, his bottom lip stuck out in the pout that Bad couldn't resist.

It had all gone downhill when Bad was called to an emergency, the Master Builder ignoring his warning of staying in the car and letting the police handle the emergency. It was what Bad Cop had expected to be a simple robbery; get in, arrest the offender and get out for coffee and doughnuts with his beloved.

But instead the offender had decided on playing it safe, and Bad – along with the other present officers – was forced to open fire, the gunshots attracting the worried astronaut almost instantly. Bad hadn't seen him at first, far too busy in shouting orders and doing his job to recognize the blue figure of his boyfriend until it was too late; the Master Builder roughly held in front of him with a knife against his throat, an unknown suspect standing behind and looking desperate.

It had taken far too long for Bad Cop to find an opening, Benny being the victim of various blows that sent anger coursing through Bad's system in a red hot wave.

And now Benny was curled into the seat beside him, slightly bruised and terrified beyond words, blue eyes wide as he stared forward. Bad could see the tremors that shook the astronaut's arms, and the nicer side of him wanted to pull up on the side of the road and wrap him up in their arms and refuse to let go.

Benny could still feel the knife pressed against the throat area of his spacesuit, the material forced harshly against his throat. He was aware of Bad Cop turning a corner roughly, parking abruptly in the coffee shop parking lot before Good took over once more.

"Ben?"

He raised his gaze, blinking and all but crawling into the cop's lap, feeling the familiar, strong arms he loved with all of his heart wrap around his shoulders once more. The side of his head ached as Good's shoulders pressed against his cheek, and a headache raged from when something had collided with the back of his head harshly.

"This is why you stay in the car love," the words were whispered into his ear softly and he nodded.

"Sorry. I heard gunshots and I was worried," he spoke as clearly as he could, voice shaking slightly. The tremors that coursed through his body lessened slightly and Good leaned back.

"It could've been worse," he smiled gently, pushing Benny's hair out of his face and ghosting a finger over the bruises. Benny didn't move, forcing a deep breath and smiling weakly up at his lover.

"Is Bad angry?"

Good nodded, turning Benny's head so he could gently kiss the blotchy bruises gently, the astronaut still shaking slightly behind his touch.

"I'm sorry."

"We know love," Good tangled a hand in Benny's hair and the Master Builder smiled up at him before leaning back against the steering wheel slightly.

"Can we get ice cream instead? And go home and watch the sci-fi channel?" he looked up hopefully at his boyfriend and Good's smile widened before he kissed Benny softly.

"Sure thing. Are you okay buddy?"

Benny hesitated before nodding, "I'll be fine once I get back to my spaceship show."

Bad switched in instantly, Benny's smile fading slightly as the cop reached out and pulled him in for a tight hug, burying his head in the astronaut's shoulder.

"If you ever scare me like that again love, I'll cancel the sci-fi channel and you'll never see another spaceship show for as long as you live."

Benny gasped, fake horror entering his voice and he laughed softly, "Deal."

"We love you Ben."

"I love you both too. Now can we please go home and watch TV?"

Bad almost smiled as he kissed the top of Benny's head.

* * *

**A/N:** This is, literally, the 12th Galaxy Cop one shot I wrote while trying to find a decent one to post. I'm not 100% happy with this one, because Benny is so out of character until the end, but he was pretty shaken up about the whole ordeal…

Anyway, thanks to the following for reviewing last chapter;

**ArmoredSoul** (Because that would be adorable and I want to see that…)

**Rouge plays mc** (Haha, pretty much!)

**A Nonny Mouse Fangirl** (I fixed your heart? Yes, life complete! *joins party*)

**17blanceri** (I never get overly angry myself, but I do tend you get upset real easy. Thanks :) )

**Edger230 **(Emmet's the biggest dork you could possibly meet and I love him for that. *squeals and hug the dragon as best as possible* Hmm, a name…)

**Guest** (I can do that for you.) :)

**Wafflestheninja** (I wouldn't put it past Lloyd.)


	20. Chapter 20

**Requested By:** Brandon (The oldest of my three younger bros.)

**Prompt:** What if Emmet tried to teach Bad Cop how to build and he subconsciously built a chair?

**Characters:** Emmet, GCBC

**Pairing:** None (unless you wanna pretend this is construction cop, then go ahead.)

**Genre:** Friendship, Humor

**Rating:** K

* * *

Emmet looked up from the blueprints laid out before him as a shadow crossed the table. He and Gail were going over the plans for a new school they were to build in the western side of Bricksburg, where more people were seemingly moving to for unknown reasons after the whole Kragle incident. Emmet guessed it was due to the lack of damage on that side of town.

He frowned, pulling his hard hat down to obscure the sun from his sight, staring confusingly up at the Cop in front of him.

He could tell by the dark sunglasses that it was Bad Cop, the officer standing with hands thrust into the pockets of his jacket as he stared down at the crouching construction worker.

"Bad, is there a problem?"

He felt Gail look between the two, the female construction worker rolling the blueprints up and mumbling an excuse to leave.

"I need... your help Brickowski."

Emmet felt confusion flood his emotions and he scratched the back of his neck, "You're asking me to help you with something?"

"That's what I said Brickowski. Are you in or are you too busy building schools?"

Emmet shook his head, hands falling limp by his side, "No, I'm good. Gail can handle things without me; what are we doing exactly?' he followed the officer as he turned and made his way out of the construction site, his steps rapid.

"I'll tell you later."

Emmet didn't press the issue further, sliding into the police cruiser and sinking into the low seat, strapping himself in and bobbing a knee up and down subconsciously. He tried, numerous times, to reassure himself that he wasn't in trouble; it had only been three months since the Kragle and Duplo incident and he hadn't fully gotten over all the changes, the Cop's change of heart being one of them.

They travelled in silence, Good occasionally switching in and making small talk before Bad took over once more, cutting any decent conversation off abruptly. He pulled up outside of an old factory that produced bricks and Emmet knew off hand that it was closed down and hadn't been used in a good year.

"Uh, Bad, why are we here?"

The cop turned to face him, still gripping the steering wheel tightly and Emmet felt a small flutter of fear in his chest.

"I need you to teach me how to build."

Emmet stuttered, jaw dropping and stared wide eyed at Bad, the cop's words almost uncomprehending in his mind.

"Wha- me?" he frowned and took his hard bat off, dropping it to the ground before running a hand through his hair. "There's better people at this then me Bad."

But Bad shook his head, "Brickowski, I need your help because you have useless ideas."

The Master Builder scoffed, hurt flashing briefly in his eyes and he shifted in his seat, "Gee, thanks."

Good Cop switched in, mentally cursing Bad as he did so, "He didn't mean it like that. He just knows that you understand what it's like to feel useless in this area."

Emmet nodded and opened the door, stepping out of the car and into the summer air outside, "Let's just get this over with, shall we?"

Good wad quick to follow, Bad taking over and following Emmet into the warehouse quietly, letting the Special lead him to the centre of the room, the two surrounded by various types of multiple colored bricks.

"Okay, so, uh, anything in particular?" Emmet spun on the spot, taking in the room before he looked at Bad Cop in curiosity, his voice echoing through the large room as he stared at the officer before him.

"Nope."

"Uh," the sound left Emmet's lips and he scratched his head, casting his gaze around the room quickly before he shrugged, "Just build whatever comes to mind then, I guess."

"That's it? That's all the teaching you're going to do?" Bad Cop dedpanned, staring at him in both confusion and slight annoyance. He hadn't tracked down the Special through every busy construction site for nothing.

Emmet shrugged, "It's really not that hard, I think… but then again, I had to jump into an abyss to get my powers so…"

Bad Cop winced slightly as Emmet's face blanked, the Special staring forward before mentally shaking himself, forcing a grin towards the Cop as he threw out his hands.

"Just build whatever comes to mind!"

And so Bad Cop, feeling slightly self conscious as Emmet took a seat on the ground, those brown eyes watching him as he moved, grabbed as many random pieces as he could before bringing them back to the centre of the room and assembling them as fast as he could.

When he was done he took a step back, staring in disbelief as anger coursed through his systems at the thing he had built.

"So you, uh, build a chair…?" there was a slight question in Emmet's tone and Bad glared at him, the Special raising his hands in defense almost instantly. "Which is totally cool!"

"This is stupid! I wanted to learn how so, if in emergencies, I can build whatever. A chair isn't going to help!" He all but ran forward, kicking the chair and sending it crashing out of a nearby window, missing Emmet by mere meters.

Emmet shrugged, eyes wide as he stared at the now shattered window, "I don't know man, you can kick one pretty well."

Bad Cop glared and Emmet smiled crookedly before shrugging, "You'll get the hang of it. I'll built something for you and show you how it's done."

Bad Cop didn't really know why Emmet even bothered; the Master Builder was moving far too fast for Bad Cop to track his moves and learn anything from it. Emmet was flipping over piles, grabbing pieces and tossing them into the centre of the room until a large pile stood, full of pieces Bad Cop had never seen before.

He watched as Emmet put the pieces together in a flurry of colours and clicking sounds until he took a step back, grinning widely at his creation.

Bad Cop didn't know what to say but forced his jaw back into its correct position, sending an angered glare towards the grinning Special.

"So, what do you think?"

"It's a chair, Brickowski-"

Emmet was quick to interrupt him, "Not just any chair though Bad… a double-decker chair! See, the idea of building something is to take an original object and be creative with-" he was cut off, his eyes widening comically as Bad sent the chair careening towards him and he screamed, jumping out of the way and into a large pile of bricks. "Maybe we should move away from chairs?"

"Good idea Brickowski."

* * *

**A/N:** Because Bad always thinks about chairs – even if he doesn't realize it – and Emmet has a weird fascination for double decker things… Anyway, back to requests tomorrow! I just fell in love with this idea and had to write it.

Thanks to the following for reviewing last chapter;

**LastOneOut** (I'll do more Galaxy Cop.) :)

	21. Chapter 21

**Requested By: **Random Guy (I think…)

**Prompt: **Emmet gets sick and Lucy has to look after him

**Characters: **Emmet, Lucy

**Pairing: **Emmetstyle, Emcy

**Genre: **Hurt/Comfort, Family, Romance

**Rating: **K+

* * *

"The _idiot_!" Lucy didn't understand what had compelled Emmet to work as hard as he did; the construction worker giving up the majority of his spare time to help anyone who asked for it. She knew – and loved it about him – that he was a dedicated and loyal worker who would do anything to help those who needed it. She also knew he was the same on a construction site.

So when she had gotten the call that Emmet had fainted – of all things – on the site, a part of her wasn't surprised. It was the hottest day Bricksburg had seen in years and she knew that, if someone had needed his help that much on the site, he would've thrown out every bottle of water and option of shade possible just to help the person out.

And that was why she was marching through the construction site, wearing only a black singlet and white shorts – it was far too hot for her usual hood and pants – until she reached the closed off, unfinished building where they were keeping Emmet until they deemed him moveable.

She pushed past the large tarp that was strung up to block the sun's rays from entering the half finished room, worried gaze instantly finding the crumpled figure of her boyfriend against the back wall. Both Frank the foreman and Gail were milling about, Gail holding a wet cloth to Emmet's forehead while Frank stood off to the side, blocking the view of any curious worker that happened to pass by the tent.

"What happened?" Lucy felt her knees collide with the ground beside Emmet and she took the damp rag Gail was offering her, gently dipping it in the bucket of water beside her before setting it on the skin of Emmet's forehead.

"He was helping me plan the garden when he started acting weird. He was swaying and mumbling his answers almost like he was confused. That was when he fainted," Gail got to her feet, taking a small step away from the two and giving them space.

Lucy sighed and lifted her free hand up to his cheek, gently feeling just how hot he really was. And he was hot; his skin burning under her hand and she quickly pulled it away, frowning in concern before she glanced at Gail and Frank. They both seemed to understand and left the room, Frank's booming voice warning anyone who was willing to enter the area not too.

Lucy pulled the rag away and set it on the rim of the bucket before moving her hands to Emmet's vest, pushing it past his shoulders and letting it drop to the floor behind him. She unbuttoned his shirt, pushing it apart and grabbing the rag once more, wetting it with the cold liquid before squeezing it above his chest, watching with a small amount of hope that the cold water against his chest would cool him down somewhat.

She rewet the rag once more before placing it back on his forehead, using her free hand to push his sweaty, tangled hair away from his face.

"C'mon Emmet, wake up for me," she whispered the words, her free hand resting in his damp hair.

"L-Lucy?" Emmet stirred, shifting slightly and groaning as he blinked, brown eyes opening and staring at her in confusion. "Wha- I was with Gail…?"

Lucy rolled her eyes, "And you fainted. You _idiot_, have you had _any_ water at all today?"

Emmet didn't answer, leaning his head back against the wall and closing his eyes as she replaced the rag with a wetter version once more. He raised one of his own hands, gently laying it over hers.

"You need to drink something," Lucy mumbled and looked around. She saw one of Gail's water bottles – she knew it was the female construction worker's because of the neatly scrawled name on one side – and she scrambled to pick it up, quickly uncapping it and lifting it to Emmet's lips.

"Drink."

Emmet opened an eye and pulled an embarrassed face before he greedily gulped down the water, moaning in disappointment when Lucy pulled the bottle away, "I was drinking that."

"If you drink too much at first it'll make you sick. Small sips at a time, okay?" she capped the bottle and leaned against the wall beside him, his head instantly finding her shoulder.

"I'm sorry," he mumbled the words almost incoherently into her shoulder and she smiled softly, wrapping one of her arms around his own shoulders and pulling him against her, his skin flushed and hot against hers.

"Just promise me you'll drink more water."

"Fine."

"And you're not working tomorrow."

Emmet's eyes widened comically and he spluttered before he managed to spit out a one worded response, "Why?"

Lucy shot him a look, "You _fainted_. I'm keeping you home until I'm positive you know how to drink water by yourself."

Emmet groaned and closed his eyes, willing away the sudden dizzy spell that washed over him as he leaned into her side. He felt his heart flutter at her concern and he smiled despite himself, catching the way her arm tightened around his shoulders.

"I love you Emmet," she moved so she had her face buried in his hair and he laughed softly, almost tiredly before answering.

"Love you too Lucy."

And they didn't move until she was positive he could stand and make it to her car on his own.

**A/N:** Gosh… I'm having so much trouble writing these one shot lately *shouts in frustration and punches a wall* I think that helped a bit.

_**IMPORTANT:**_ I won't be accepting requests for the next little while, only because I have so many and I think I'm starting to drown in them. Thanks guys! I will be accepting them in a little while once more though.

Thanks to the following for reviewing last chapter;

	22. Chapter 22

**Requested By:** 17blanceri and wafflestheninja

**Prompts:** _17blanceri:_ BennyxUniKitty

_ Wafflestheninja:_ Humanised BennyxUniKitty

**Main Characters:** Benny, UniKitty

**Pairing:** BennyxUniKitty (does the pairing have a name?)

**Genre:** Romance

**Rating:** K+

* * *

The first time Benny saw her was when he had first arrived at Cloud Cuckoo Land for the unveiling of the Special. She was a pretty girl; light skin and light pink hair tied up in a high, bouncy ponytail that curled slightly at the end. She wore a little make-up – complimentary lipstick and a little eye liner – but nothing that was too noticeable, and he liked it. And he didn't care that she was wearing a bright pink dress with turquoise tights and yellow flat shoes that, on any other person, wouldn't have worked but somehow did so perfectly on her.

But he was Benny and, despite what some might say, he was a little shy when it came to making friends. So he didn't say hello, instead floating past quickly, dressed in his blue spacesuit until he reached The Dog and found his seat.

And then she had entered The Dog, the supposed Special behind her, a spring in her step as she lead the group of four inside. She was accompanied by a darker skinned girl dressed in black jeans, boots and hood, a young man in a construction worker's uniform with neatly combed brown hair, a man dressed all in black and a dark skinned, long white bearded man he knew instantly to be Vitruvius.

She had a pretty voice; light and so full of hope and positivity that he wanted to hear more of it, his heart sinking when she stopped explaining The Dog to the construction worker. Not that he was listening to their conversation, of course.

Emmet, as he introduced himself, had stepped up, given a speech that not only confused Benny but crushed the image in his head of what he had expected the Special to be. And then they were under attack, people running and screaming and trying desperately to fight off the army at their doors.

And in Benny's mind, nothing mattered omore then saving the pretty, pink haired, bright wearing girl he had almost instantly fallen in love with.

As time and the mission steadily moved on, he found out two things. One, Emmet was actually a pretty cool dude who was just misunderstood and needed to be listened to once in a while (and he and WyldStyle would totally make a cute couple,) and two, that UniKitty – he didn't care that her name was strange because it seemed to fit her so perfectly – was a cute, quirky person that he wanted to get to know even better.

But then the last battle had happened, their plan had failed and they had been captured. Emmet had jumped into the abyss, WyldStyle's heart wrenching shout of his name freezing his own heart in his chest as he watched the space where Emmet – his _friend_ – had stood only moments ago. And suddenly they were free and he was on the ground next to UniKitty, helping her to her feet and staring into her eyes – they were such a pretty shade of blue – and he knew, almost instantly, that he was in love with the fun loving, normally happy girl before him.

The last battle had commenced and he was fighting, trying desperately to keep UniKitty in his sight as he drove his spaceship and fought the bad guys. And then she had raged and he finally saw the part of her that she tried to keep from everyone else, her clothes seemingly changing into dark, more menacing shades then what they were originally as she leaped forward, the pink of her hair turning a bright, fiery red as she did so.

But he didn't care, because he had fallen for her and he himself had his own – spaceship addicted – quirks that she didn't care about.

It wasn't until after the battle and Emmet and WyldStyle – or Lucy – had finally realized they were made for each other, the two holding hands and smiling goofy grins at each other. Batman was standing off to the side, glaring at Green Lantern as he buzzed around both him and Superman. MetalBeard was cheering loudly and UniKitty stood nearby, grinning and clapping lightly as she did, hair back to pink and her colors back to their bright, happy colours.

His eyes met hers and he smiled, her grin fading into a happy, beautiful smile he wanted to see every day and she ran up to him, wrapping her arms around his shoulders and he hugged her back, his own space suit clad arms wrapping around her waist, their happy laughs sounding around them as they embraced.

They saw each other more often after that; UniKitty always with pink hair and brightly colored clothes and Benny always in blue shirts and jeans unless he needed his spacesuit. He took her for spaceship rides and she took him for walks and strolls that he wouldn't trade for the world. He helped her build back her town and through any lasting anger she felt from time to time and she helped him in those moments when he felt alone and trapped.

It was the fifth date – yes, they were finally dating and Benny had never been happier – when they kissed. They were at her house, wrapping up in blankets and watching old reruns of Doctor Who, UniKitty oblivious to what was going on but happy to watch it if it made Benny happy.

She was playing with the blond hair at the back of his head, her thin fingers – with rainbow painted fingernails – curling into the soft hair softly and she leaned against him. Almost instantly he wrapped an arm around her shoulders, pulling her closer and laughing when she gave that sweet sounding giggle he loved so much.

It only took once glance between their equally blue gazes before they kissed, her strawberry lip gloss mixing with the vanilla ice-cream taste that lingered on his lips. They pulled apart, giddy and smiling up at each other, totally oblivious to the Doctor on the small TV.

Because they had each other and not even a spaceship could bring the two apart.

And Benny knew, without a doubt, that he was in love.

And she was too.

* * *

**A/N:** …. I love this chapter… And I think I'm starting to ship these two. Anyway, in my mind, UniKitty's a pretty girl who wears a little makeup and wears bright, colorful clothes… kinda like how Luna is depicted in the Harry Potter movies! But with pale pink hair that changes to red when she gets angry.

	23. Chapter 23

**Requested By:** Magic

**Prompt:** Commitment issues, afraid of hurting Lucy.

**Characters:** Emmet, Lucy

**Pairing:** Emcy, Emmetstyle

**Genre:** Romance, Angst, Hurt/Comfort

**Rating:** T

* * *

Lucy felt the anger in her gut double as she marched up the stairs to Emmet's front door, not bothering with knocking before she swung it open. The end of her long, simple black dress fluttered around her knees with the motion and she scowled, moving into the kitchen and slamming the door behind her. She didn't care that it was dark inside, or that Emmet could probably be asleep in bed, because her heart ached and her gut swelled in fury and Emmet needed to see just how upset he had made her.

She stormed into the living room, flicking the light on and her anger faded almost instantly, the emotion over run with concern when she found Emmet, the construction worker sitting with his head in his hands, previously combed hair messy as his hands ran through it, normal uniform replaced with a blue, button up shirt and black dress pants.

"Emmet?"

He looked up almost instantly, eyes widening and he forced a smile, not moving from his spot, "Lucy, hey! I- I was coming, honestly, I just-" he trailed off and gestured uselessly with a hand, the smile slipping from his face as he did so.

"Really? You left me sitting at the restaurant by myself for over an hour Emmet," she all but spat the words out, anger returning as she glared at the man in front of her.

And she watched, the pain in her heart increasing as his expression turned to one of regret and self hate, the construction worker stumbling to his feet and raising his hands to gently pull at his hair, "I'm sorry Lucy, I really am but-" he trailed off once more, looking around the room for a way to escape the predicament he had gotten himself into.

"But what Emmet," she wasn't angry any more, finally realizing that something was wrong with her boyfriend and she took a step forward, grabbing one of his hands lightly in hers and gently prying it from his hair, "You can tell me babe."

"I'm scared," the words were whispered but she heard them and she heard the way his heart broke.

"Of what? There's nothing to be scared of."

"Of you," he took a wary step back as her face blanked and she started up at him in question. "I'm terrified of- of hurting you somehow. I don't know how and I know I wouldn't on purpose but- I just am."

She could see how agitated he was and she forced him into her arms, wrapping him up in the embrace and rocking them softly on the spot, "You couldn't hurt me if you tried."

"But I did! Tonight, you thought I just didn't show up because I didn't want to but I did so, _so_ bad but I was terrified of doing something wrong," he choked back his sobs, forcing himself to be quiet after he had mumbled the words into her shoulder.

"Everyone gets scared Emmet. We'll get through this, I promise," she turned her head so her lips were against his ear to make sure he heard her words.

He leaned away from her, staring hopefully into her eyes and a thought crossed her mind that scared her, "And I won't ever leave you, so you don't need to be scared of being abandoned or rejected ever again."

It was an instant reaction when his face took on a look of relief and he hugged her tightly, small, pent up sobs escaping as he did so. She wrapped her arms around his shoulders, her hands playing with back of his hair gently as she rocked them.

She had heard numerous stories of people with commitment issues for various reasons and it made her all the more determined to prove to Emmet that she loved him with all her heart.

Because, by god had he suffered enough rejection for one life time.

* * *

**A/N:** Here, have another one because the one above was so short :)

**Requested By:** Various people

**Prompt: **Construction Cop! (One person wanted angsty, angsty, ansgty Construction Cop.)

**Characters:** GCBC, Emmet

**Paring:** Construction Cop

**Genre:** Angst, Hurt/Comfort, Romance

**Rating:** T

* * *

Emmet didn't know what had started the attack; he just knew that he was suddenly in the back corner of his bedroom, knees against his chest and hands in his hair. He squeezed his eyes shut, hiding the brown orbs from the pressing darkness of the night; his breathing coming out in rapid, desperate gasps that were occasionally interrupted with a body racking sob that tore from his throat. His palms were sweaty and fisted tightly into his brown hair, pulling harshly at the strands woven around his fingers.

His phone vibrated from its position on the floor next to him where he had dropped it.

_I'm not sure he's the Special._

The mocking words came from the voice that belonged to Lucy, filling his mind with the taunting words and wrapping his heart in a blanket of anguish. They tore at his pride, at his confidence and self-belief, tearing them to shreds and leaving pity and hatred in their wake.

_You are so disappointing... on so many levels._ Batman's voice was quick to join in, the harsh gruffness of the words quickly to sound after the sickly sweet ones of Lucy.

Emmet gave a desperate cry, bringing his hands down to claw over his ears, willing away the taunting voices. He rocked himself back and forth, head pressed into the tops of his knees hard enough to leave marks on his forehead.

His phone vibrated once more.

_No matter how unspecial I am, you are a thousand billion times more unspecial then me!__  
_  
Business' words brought a venom with them that bit hard and Emmet launched himself to his feet, strangled cry tearing from his parched throat. He sobbed hysterically as he stumbled blindly around his apartment, reaching for his bookcase of instructions. He filtered through them, throwing useless booklets to the side or over his shoulder, desperation radiating off of him in waves. His eyes shone with unshed tears, cheeks coated and cracked with the ones that had fallen from his broken gaze.

His hand latched around the instructions for being happy and he flipped it to the first page, reading the words he knew off by heart but still needing the odd comfort the words brought him.

_You are literally the worst leader I have ever met._

He forced himself to take a deep breath, doing as the printed words said, only for it to come out shaky and wet. He shouted in rage and depression, throwing the booklet at a nearby wall and stumbling backwards, eyes searching the room for something to help him.

Something to make him _him_ again.

Suddenly, the door burst open and Bad Cop was standing in his kitchen, staring at the distraught Master Builder with a sense of concern. He didn't waste any time in rushing forward, arms encircling Emmet's waist, dragging him backwards to the couch and falling onto the furniture. He shifted the construction worker so he was facing him, bringing Emmet's head down onto his shoulder, his hand staying on the brown haired head as his other arm wrapped around Emmet's waist, keeping him firmly against his chest.

"Love, just breathe; you need to breathe." Bad Cop was acting as gentle as he could, still not willing to let Good take over in reassuring the Special in his arms.

He didn't want Emmet out of his sight in his current state.

Emmet's cries were loud and harsh into Bad's shoulder and the cop shifted slightly so his face was tilted towards Emmet's, "Breathe Emmet. C'mon, just breathe."

Bad's voice brought a reassuring calm with it, washing over Emmet and dragging him slowly out of his fit. He forced himself to take deep breaths, focusing on the comforting words that came from his lover over the harsh, repetitive voices in his head.

"Tell me what's wrong."

Emmet almost whimpered as he shifted, wrapping his arms around Bad's neck in a tight embrace, "They won't leave- leave me alone."

"Who won't?"

"The- the voices. Lucy's and Bat- Batman's. And Business'," Emmet sniffled and sobbed once more, leaning back to look into Bad's eyes with a broken gaze. "They keep reminding me I wasn't Special."

Good finally took over and instantly pulled Emmet back to his cheat, rocking them both slightly on the couch, "They didn't mean it! Really! They were just memories of when they weren't sure; they're your friends now."

Emmet shook his head and his shoulders shook as he cried again, "You don't understand; I'm not special! I'm an average, normal, everyday, stupid, worthless-"

"Now don't you dare go calling yourself those things! You know it's not true! I didn't fall in love with a boring person like that," Good pushed Emmet away from him, forcing the construction worker to look him in the eye, wiping away a few stray tears as he did so.

"You didn't?"

Good shook his head, "I fell in love with a brave, strong, wonderfully talented Master Builder who surprises me each and every day."

Emmet reached up to rub his eyes with a hand and gave the cop a tentative smile, "Thanks Good."

Good was about to reply when Bad took over, the man instantly leaning up to capture Emmet's lips in a soft and reassuring kiss, "So did I."

It was rare when Bad Cop managed to say - or infer - something sweet without stumbling over his words and Emmet smiled softly, moving to lean against the cop's broad chest, his lover's strong arms wrapping around him in a hug.

Emmet knew he wasn't a hundred percent better; he'd still have his moments where he longed for his instructions or his doubts and fears would overwhelm him once more.

But he had his lovers waiting, arms open and ready for when he needed them.

He was positive he'd do the same for them when they needed it.

And GCBC was adamant that whenever Emmet unexplainably stopped replying to his text messages after they sensed something was wrong; they'd always show up.

* * *

**A/N:** Yeah, so I gave you two because the first one was so short and I know not a lot of people read Construction Cop (which I've had written for ages and was originally on Tumblr, so I didn't steal it,) as much as Emcy/Emmetstyle, so if I post them at the same time, they still get something to read instead too :)

Thanks to the following for reviewing last chapter;

**Someone** (Okay! No problem.)

**Edger230** (I think I got atleast three different ship names… haha. I wear my Emmet keychain as a necklace, he comes everywhere with me!)

**PinkiePie** (I'll add it to my list if you still want it when I'm accepting requests.) :)

**The Wild West Pyro** ( :) )

**AnimeKitten47** (It's easier to write too.)

**17blanceri** (Haha, I'm glad you liked it!)

**A Nonny Mouse Fangirl** (Yep… I can't imagine Vitruvius saying it…)

**Teddi 8347** (Already replied via PM.) :P

**ArmoedSoul **(Thank you :) That was definitely a confidence boost!)

**Wafflestheninja** (I agree with the car ear headband and now I'm kicking myself for not thinking of that earlier…)

**Rcdapikachu** (Spam D: Haha, s'all good! You're oneshot will be a little while in waiting because I go down my list of prompts in order that I get them. But I've managed to combine a whole bunch of similar requests into one, so it won't be overly long. Sorry for the wait.) :)

Benny didn't live in Bricksburg and he knew that UniKitty had a small house on the outskirts of Cloud Cuckoo Land where she could go and rest when she needed too. But that didn't stop the two from meeting in one of Bricksburg's biggest parks and going for a walk.

The two had become almost siblings since the 'Kragle' and 'Duplo' fiascos and often founds themselves meeting up for lunch or walks just to simply catch up. Sure, they saw each other weekly at the Master Builder meetings, but they were generally spent listening to long, boring speeches that Benny either fell asleep with or ended up giggling with Emmet behind their hands about something someone had said.

It was a nice park; big and secluded, shaded by the large trees that towered over the walk path. In one corner there was a nice picnic place and a kids playground for the families of the large city while the rest of the park was made up of walking tracks.

"You know, I really like days like this where you can just relax," UniKitty spoke up from beside Benny and he smiled at her words, floating gently after the princess.

"The only thing it needs is a spaceship and it'd be perfect," he grinned as she rolled her eyes, receiving the same, playful glare she always shot him when he brought up the subject of spaceships.

"Oh! I had this idea for Cloud Cuckoo Land-" UniKitty's enthusiastic burst almost instantly interested him and he landed beside her, walking slowly as she babbled on with her plans for a new section of her home realm.

She was still talking when they rounded a corner and a dark haired jogger managed to catch Benny's attention. Almost instantly he grinned and waved her over, the woman spotting him and smiling as she made her way towards him.

Benny didn't realize that UniKitty had continued moving forward, still talking without him.

"Diana, hey!" he grinned as she stopped before him, noticing how her usual down hairstyle was replaced with a high and messy ponytail.

"Hey Ben" she grinned and rested her hands on her hips, "I thought there was a marathon on TV you were watching today?"

Benny shrugged, "Yeah, I got bored. Weren't you at a Justice League meeting?"

Diana rolled her eyes and lead him to a seat nearby, the two sitting down next to each other, their thighs pressed together, "Superman almost lost it at Green Lantern again; we decided on having a break for an hour or so."

Benny smiled and leaned against her, one of her strong arms instantly wrapping around his shoulders as she pressed a kiss to the top of his blond head. He hummed and closed his eyes, letting her rake one of her hands through his hair. He had decided on not wearing his helmet that day.

"We should go out for dinner tonight," he shifted so he could smile up at her, her soft smile sending his heart into a fluttering mess.

"I agree. Somewhere fancy," she giggled as he pulled a face; Benny hated wearing a suit, "or you could just take me somewhere in one of your spaceships."

It was Benny's excited gasp that changed her soft smile into a happy grin, Benny instantly reaching up to kiss her gently before leaning back, "That's an amazing idea! I knew there was a reason I loved you!"

Diana smiled as he pulled away from her, his expression turning into a frown slowly, "You alright Ben?"

He turned to looked at her, frown still in place and she felt suddenly worried, "I was with UniKitty a moment ago."

She raised one of her eyebrows and leaned back, "And you left her without saying something?"

Benny stumbled to his feet and shook his head, "No, I- I thought she was here…"

"Ben," Diana got to her feet, grabbing one of his hands in hers and squeezing it, "Go and find her and apologize. I'll see you tonight." Benny didn't say anything as she leaned up and kissed his cheek, giving his hand another small squeeze before she jogged off.

Benny ran, mentally cursing himself as he turned the winding track he and UniKitty had been walking on, all the while keeping an eye open for the familiar, pink princess he was suppose to be with. He eventually found her curled up under one of the largest trees, looking slightly upset as she watched people walk past.

"UniKitty!" he ran up to her, her expression turning to one of anger as she caught sight of him.

"You left me!" she was on her feet, glaring at him as best she could and he noticed how she was tinged slightly red.

"I know, I'm sorry. I ran into Diana and I didn't realize you were gone," he shifted awkwardly on the spot as she glared at him, wanting to hug her as best as he could to reassure her that they were still friends.

When UniKitty's anger subsided and a sad expression took hold he frowned, taking a small step forward and gently resting a head on her head as he peered into her sad eyes, "UniKitty? Are you okay?"

"Is she stealing our friendship?"

Benny was shocked into silence and he took a deep breath before he mentally shook himself. He smiled, "Of course not! I love her but I love you too. You're a sister to me!"

"Like Emmet's your brother?"

Benny grinned, "Just like Emmet's my brother."

UniKitty smiled and nuzzled him gently, Benny kneeling down and hugging her as best as he could, grinning as she laughed softly.

"Sorry, I was being stupid-" she mumbled the words softly and he shook his head.

"No, I should be sorry. In fact, I shouldn't be allowed my spaceship after all this."

UniKitty pulled away and grinned slyly, "That's true; I'm sure Diana would agree too."

Benny had been joking and he suddenly glared down at her, UniKitty laughing and walking away as he did. He ran to catch up to her, "I was joking!"

UniKitty only laughed.

**Important A/N:** Okay, guys, I'm going to list a few rules that will apply to the next few chapters.

**One)** Put everything you want to say into one review.

**Two)** I'm not accepting requests at the moment. I will be soon though.

**Three) **No OC's. I'm not a fan of OC's unless they're minor characters and necessary.

**Four)** Make sure I can understand what you say in the reviews; a whole bunch of letters really isn't anything but confusing.

Thanks guys!

On a happier, note; we hit 200 reviews and I didn't even realize it! Gah, I'm so happy :D

I also got 18 reviews last chapter, so I'm going to skip review responses because of that and my A/N is so long. But be assured, I seriously love each and every one of you who leave a review :) It makes my day when my phone buzzes with an email because I got a new review :)

To 17blanceri's question: Green Lantern would have to be my favorite sub character. Don't ask why, he just is :P


	25. Chapter 25

**A/N:** So for the next five updates I'll be doing an arc/series of connected one shots that I talked about with Teddi 8347. It'll basically be a Father!Business Son!Emmet series :) With some additions of Emma and Luke (who seem to be popular with a couple of people…) It does go with the other Father Business oneshot I wrote earlier.

**Part One: **Emmet and Business decided to keep their relation secret, but it somehow got out. Now they have to deal with everyone's reactions.

**Characters:** All of the main cast

**Pairing: **Emmetstyle

**Genre: **Family, Friendship

**Rating: **K

* * *

It was decided upon by both Business and Emmet that the knowledge of their relation would be kept between the two; both slightly scared about the reactions the realms would have. It was Business who suggested it first and Emmet had agreed almost instantly, the Special slightly scared about his friends leaving him if they found out the ex-baddie was actually his father.

But if any workplace is good at something, it's gossip. So when Business started getting strange looks the moment he walked into the lunch room or down the halls, he knew something was wrong or some type of scandal was being shared between his employees.

It wasn't until a late Thursday afternoon, the third week in a row he'd been getting knowing looks from just about everyone when he finally asked someone about it.

"Sir, we know about you and Emmet."

"Oh," the President had only been able to muster a simple reply, the employee pushing past the shocked leader, leaving him in the hallway with a thousand thoughts buzzing through his mind. It was then that he decided the world needed to know from him rather than a bunch of employees that let the secret slip out.

And that was why he and Emmet – who was slightly angry at the secret being let out – were both cornered in Business' office, Emmet's main group of friends glaring at them in shock and confusion.

Lucy – being the one who first told Emmet after she had found out for him – was the only one who wasn't shouting questions, standing still while shooting Emmet a sympathetic look.

"Look, I can explain," Business all but shouted the words, his hands held out in front of him. He could see Emmet shift awkwardly from beside him and he quickly shot a small, reassuring smile his way.

"Ye better explain," MetalBeard was arguably the angriest of the lot, glaring down at both President and Special intensely.

"What I said was true; Emmet is, in fact, my biological son-"

"Who ye tried ter kill!" MetalBeard cut the President off, Business finally realizing that he wasn't angry at Emmet but just worried about his safety.

Emmet winced and glanced at the pirate, "That's forgiven MetalBeard; Business has chang-"

Batman snorted, "See? It's not true, he doesn't even call him Dad."

Lucy sighed and rubbed her face, "Guys, it's really not that hard to understand. They're biologically related and are just getting to know each other. Just let them do what they want."

"It's nice ter know ye want the lad seeing his near murderer," MetalBeard directed the words towards the female Master Builder and Lucy frowned.

"It's not-"

"Guys!" UniKitty jumped in, looking slightly red as she did so, "We should let Business explain himself. Arguing isn't going to help."

"Exactly; for all we know, this is all a huge misunderstanding!" Benny shouted his addition from his position near the ceiling where he floated softly, grinning down at the blushing Special who was still not use to being the centre of attention.

Business rolled his eyes and fell into the seat behind his desk with a heavy sigh, "Thank you. Now, if you'll let me explain, I'll tell you the _whole_ story. When Emmet was three weeks old his- his Mother died."

Business paused and swallowed the sudden lump that formed in his throat, glancing quickly at Emmet as the Special lowered his gaze, Lucy instantly grabbing one of his hands in hers and squeezing it softly. He took a deep breath, turning to face the shocked and sympathetic looks on the other's faces before continuing, "I gave him up the next day. He looked – he still does – like his Mother so much. I was a busy man, running the city and I knew I couldn't look after him, so I gave him up."

Emmet hadn't moved from his position, leaning gently against Lucy as she held his hand in a tight grip, her free hand around his shoulders. Business knew that it pained the Special to hear the story again, but he also knew the others needed to know.

"That was when I started organizing everything; I told myself that if I had have done it sooner, she would still be alive and we would have raised Emmet as our own," he trailed off, refusing to look up from his desk before him.

A heavy silence hung in the room before he felt something soft nuzzle his elbow gently. He looked up, finding himself staring into UniKitty's big, tearful eyes and he smiled weakly as she smiled reassuringly up at him.

"You've changed so much," she whispered softly and he gave a small chuckle.

Bad Cop shifted and sent the leader a swift nod, "Sir, with all due respect, the citizens might not take this the right way."

Business sighed and leaned back in his chair. He could see that Emmet was struggling to compose himself, Lucy gently rubbing his back while Benny floated nearby, looking like a different man without his usual, cheerful smile in place. MetalBeard looked slightly ashamed and refused to meet his eyes, happy to look at Emmet with a sense of regret. Batman didn't move, still staring forward as always, silent as ever.

"It's knowledge that needs to get out by my mouth rather than my workers; the scandal that could come from that would be far too hard to deal with."

Emmet moved from his spot almost suddenly, gaze blurry as he opened his mouth, "I forgive him."

His words hung in the silence and he swallowed thickly, "I forgive him for what he's done. I don't call him Dad but we're starting to make up for lost time and I won't stop spending time with him."

MetalBeard shifted and gave a small nod, almost as though Emmet's words were directed at him personally.

Batman snorted and shrugged a shoulder, "As long as it doesn't affect me, I don't care."

Lucy smiled and pulled Emmet towards her softly, smiling up at him as he smiled down at her, "I forgive him too."

Emmet's smile widened and Benny landed beside him, patting him gently on the back, "Me too!"

"And me!" UniKitty grinned from her position next to the president, Business smiling down at her gently.

"I hold no regrets, sir," Bad Cop nodded and Good Cop switched in, smiled and waved before he spoke, "And me, even if you did destroy my face! You just weren't in the right mind place."

Business winced at the words, his smile fading and he sent a truly apologetic look at the Cop who nodded in acknowledge meant, Good smiling gently.

MetalBeard felt the eyes of the room turn to him and he grumbled and crossed his arms, "Ye all have me cornered;. I forgive ye President."

Business smiled and met Emmet's gaze, the construction worker smiling at him as he wrapped his arms around Lucy's shoulders.

Business smiled back at his son, feeling the strongest connection with Emmet he had since he first held him in his arms.

"You tried to kill me."

Business whipped around, his heart pounding furiously in his chest and his breathing rapid, eyes darting around the darkened room for Emmet.

"I know and I regret-"

Emmet gave a chilling, haunted laugh from behind him and he spun around, stumbling slightly as he did, "You _regret_ trying to kill your son? Why would you try in the first place?"

Business buried his hands in his hair, pulling harshly as he did, "I wasn't in the right mind set!"

He spun around as Emmet's chilling laugh echoed from behind him once more, reaching out with a hand to grasp the place he guessed Emmet was standing, "Are you ever in the right mind set?"

The president gave a startled cry of fear as Emmet's hand wrapped tightly around his wrist, the construction worker's broken face suddenly in front of him. The Special's clothes were ripped and hanging in tatters, his hair a mess and his eyes unseeing pools of swirling ink.

"You killed her Business; you killed your _wife_, my _Mother_!" the words were spat fiercely into his face and Business desperately tried to get his hands free from Emmet's grip, refusing to look into the man's harrowing gaze.

"It's all your fault! You should pay for the crimes you've done against me! Against _her_!" Emmet pushed Business back, the president falling against the floor harshly with a pained grunt, his head colliding with the floor.

"I'm sorry!" he threw his hands out in front of him, all but begging the Special to leave him alone, "I'm sorry! If I could take it all back and raise you as mine I would! I'd do it a thousand times over!"

"That doesn't change the past Business," Emmet was towering over him now, hand raised above the business man's face.

Everything went dark as Emmet brought his fist down.

* * *

Business woke up to the sound of his own terrified scream echoing through his large bedroom. He shot up from his position against the mattress, breathing heavily as he quickly untangled the blankets from around his legs, his eyes darting around the room as though waiting for Emmet to appear out of nowhere.

He managed to kick the blankets off, the president stumbling to his feet and making his way down to his large but empty kitchen, flicking the lights on as he passed them, occasionally checking over his shoulder and jumping at every little sound.

He grabbed a cup in his shaking hands, pouring himself a glass of water while he forced himself to take deep breaths. He sculled the drink in one, large mouthful, falling into a seat at the kitchen table. He stared at the polished top in a trance, his mind running wild with the harsh, haunting words that came from Emmet's mouth.

"It's not your fault Business."

The President jumped to his feet, wheeling around and staring unbelievably at the ghost before him, 'V- Vitruvius? But you're _dead_."

"That I am. But I do return to the realm of the living when I'm most needed."

Business felt his confused frown evaporate slightly, "You see Emmet."

Vitruvius nodded, "When the boy needs help, I return for a little. He's still coping with the change Business."

Business shifted on the spot and rubbed his neck, "I know and it's my fault; I never should have given him up."

"You were doing what you thought best for your child and no one can blame you for that," Vitruvius floated gently in front of him as he fell into his seat once more, resting his head in his hands.

"He grew up without a family, something I could've given him!"

"He grew up with a couple who loved him dearly," Vitruvius words struck home and hard, Business instantly looking up with wide eyes.

"He never mentions them."

"They too died; a year before he found the Piece of Resistance. He had a similar response as you Business; he started following the instructions word for word without a moment's hesitation, telling himself they could save lives," Vitruvius spoke in a wise tone and Business leaned backwards, nodding almost to himself at the words.

"So we do have similarities."

"More then you know."

"How do you know all this?"

Vitruvius winked, "A magician never reveals their secrets."

Business watched in silence as the ghostly figure drifted up and faded from his view, the wizard's words still sounding in the back of his mind. He got to his feet and made his way into his living room, resting a hand on the handle of an old cabinet that was against one wall. He opened the doors and reached out, grabbing a photo with both hands and cradling it in his hands. He stared down at the faded picture, tears welling in his eyes as he smiled down at the loving sight.

It was a picture of three people; a young man with cropped brown hair, a beautiful woman with long, soft brown hair that fell below her shoulders and a baby cradled in her arms, tuffs of brown hair visible as he reached out with one hand towards his father's hand.

And both parents wore loving, happy smiles on their faces.

	27. Chapter 27

**Part Three:** Business finds out Emmet is thinking about proposing to Lucy.

**Characters:** Emmet, Business

**Pairing:** Emmestyle

**Genre:** Family, Friendship, Romance

**Rating:** K

* * *

"So, I'm thinking about proposing to Lucy."

Business' head shot up at the words, his startled gaze finding the form of Emmet who lounged on the couches in one of the corners of his office. On rare occasions when the construction worker wasn't busy and Lucy was, he'd show up in the President's office, lounge in the chairs and catch up while Business went through various forms and paperwork.

It was one of those days; Lucy off doing one of her usual 'extreme activities' and the construction company slow with business. Emmet had arrived shortly after nine and headed for the chairs, coffee in hand and a book under his arm. Business had merely given him a glance, murmuring a hello as he signed one his forms and moved onto the next.

"Really?" Business leaned back in his chair, paperwork momentarily forgotten as he looked over at the Special.

Emmet nodded and hummed an affirmative, "I just don't know when. Or how."

"Ah," Business slipped into a trance of thought, Emmet staring at him before shrugging a shoulder and returning to his book, coffee cup raised to his lips as he read.

Business thought it over, flashbacks to his own proposal flittering through his mind and bringing a fond smile to his face. He grinned suddenly, "You do something extreme!"

"What?" Emmet looked at him in a mixture of shock and confusion and Business rolled his eyes.

"Do something she would find extreme; you'll impress her!"

Emmet blinked once before he shook his head with a laugh, "Dude, I'd _die_ if I tried something extreme."

Business' grin faded slightly, "True. You are a klutz."

"I'm not that bad…" Emmet mumbled under his breath, returning back to his book only to be interrupted once more.

"We fake your death."

"What!? How is _that_ going to get me married?" Emmet whipped his head around to face the grinning business man with a wild expression.

"She'll be upset, find out you're alive and won't want to ever leave you again! It's brilliant!"

Emmet shook his head slowly, eyes still wide in shock, "I've technically already done that."

"Oh, right…" Business sighed and leaned back, eyes gazing at the ceiling as he thought. Emmet sighed and closed his book, letting it rest on the nearby coffee table with his cup as he got to his feet and made his way over to the desk.

"I could always take her on a date. A romantic walk, pop the question…" he trailed off when Business shook his head.

"It has to be special, something you'll always remember."

Emmet groaned and rested his head in his hands, leaning against the desk as he squeezed his eyes shut. Both men were silent, thinking over possible ways to impress and win the female Master Builder over.

"We could always think at it from the others perspective? Like, how would they propose… they might have something interesting…" Emmet looked up hopefully and Business pulled a face.

"Bad Cop would just throw a chair with the ring on it... I don't think Lucy would appreciate having a chair thrown at her," Business raised an eyebrow and Emmet rolled his eyes.

"Not Bad Cop, I mean UniKitty and Benny…"

"So a walk underneath a rainbow in a field of daisies or a spaceship ride?"

"Good point. Why is this so hard?" Emmet heaved a heavy sigh, letting his head fall against the desk. Business absently patted the back of his head gently, pulling his hand away awkwardly when he realized what he was doing.

Suddenly Emmet gasped, raising his head and grinning as he looked at Business with a happy gleam in his eyes, "I'll go with her on one of her extreme activities; roof jumping or whatever it is-"

"Parkour-"

Emmet waved hand dismissively, "Yeah, that. Then I'll purposely fall off the roof-"

"How is this going to get you married!?" Business leaned back, staring at the construction worker in disbelief.

"Just trust me; you guys will be at the end with one of those catching blanket things, Bad Cop would have one for sure, and it'll read 'Lucy, Will You Marry Me' in giant letters!"

Business nodded and threw his hands up in the air, "Okay, we'll go with that. But if you die, it's not my fault."

Emmet frowned suddenly and leaned away from the desk, "I won't die…"

Business pretended he didn't hear the unsure tone in the construction worker's voice.

* * *

"Emmet, you really didn't have to do this; you don't need to impress me."

Emmet smiled and leaned against the railing at the top of the roof. He could feel his heart pounding in anticipation, his hands sweaty as he thought the plan over. Sure, there was no chance he was going to be injured; Batman, Benny, MetalBeard and Business were down below with the tarp and the building wasn't that high in the first place. Bad Cop was watching from the sidelines just in case something _did_ go wrong and UniKitty had come alone just to see the whole thing.

The one thing that terrified Emmet beyond belief was her saying no. One, simple little word that could bring his world crashing down around him.

"I know, but you like it so I thought I'd give it a try."

"Uh huh," Lucy raised an eyebrow, "Do you want me to go first and show you how it's done."

Emmet jumped so he was sitting on the railing, his smiled faltering slightly at the small shrill of fear that jolted through his stomach, "How hard can it be?" he threw his hands out on either side and she took a small step towards him.

"Emmet, be careful on that ledge…" she took another, small step towards him and he could tell from her voice that she was slightly worried for him.

He took a small breath before he pulled a face, "C'mon Lucy, I'm not that much of a klutz!"

And he leaned backwards, slipping from the ledge.

"Emmet!" her desperate, fearful shout of his name followed him as he landed on the tarp, feeling it sink behind him as the others held him up, surprised grunts leaving a couple of mouths at the sudden increase of weight.

He had only been on the tarp for a moment, hand slipping the ring box out of his pocket and holding it up, the silver ringing glinting brightly in the sun when she leaned over the edge, her worried expression changing into one of confusion before it slackened into an unreadable one.

"Emmet… what is this?" she shouted the question down at him and he grinned, standing up on the tarp as best as possible.

"I love you more than anything Lucy. Will you marry me?"

Lucy didn't move, her face unreadable and Emmet felt the doubt creep in. He licked his lips and watched, the doubt fading as she grinned and vaulted herself over the edge, landing with a thud on the tarp, sending both of them rolling on the large material, Benny and the other's grunting once more in shock.

She slapped him playfully on the shoulder as the others set the tarp on the ground gently. She grinned and kissed him on the lips with a soft smile and they leaned back, grinning at each other goofily.

"You're a dork, you know that?" she laughed as he rolled his eyes, slipping the ring on before kissing her once more.

Emmet caught Business' eyes, the business man sending him a proud smile and Emmet smiled back gratefully before he found himself kissing Lucy once more.

Business looked away, meeting Bad Cop's knowing gaze and he scowled.

Emmet was making him grow soft.

Find yourself a bunch of friends who are _there for you_, who _love you for being you _and _don't give a damn about your hair colour_! If you like having red hair, be proud of it. Don't like having red hair? You should still be proud, because it's you! I've no doubt you're a wonderful, wonderful person who doesn't deserve to be bullied. Besides, there's heaps of cool movie characters with red hair! Sherman has red hair, Merida has red hair, Tauriel has red hair, Gimli has red hair, _the whole Weasley family has red hair! _Hell, I'm dying my hair in the next week or so just so I have red hair!

	28. Chapter 28

**Part Four:** Business finds out he's going to be a grandfather and can't be more proud.

**Characters**: Emmet, Business

**Pairing:** Emmetstyle

**Genre:** Family

**Rating:** K

* * *

It was approximately three years after the wedding – four years after Emmet's unique and dangerous way of proposal – when Business got the news. He was leaving his office, gently humming under his breath as he flicked his car keys around a finger. He wasn't paying attention to anything that was going on around him apart from his longing to get home, have a shower and relax for one afternoon.

"Business, hey!"

The President stopped and looked up, watching as Emmet ran towards him, grin lighting up the construction worker's face and almost splitting it in two. Business smiled despite himself and stopped spinning his car keys to lean against his vehicle.

"Emmet, what can I do for you?"

"Are you busy? Lucy is with UniKitty and I was bored so I thought we could catch up?" Emmet came to a stop before him, panting slightly at having to run to catch up with him.

Business paused, his previous longing of relaxation changing at the thought of spending an afternoon with the younger man and he shrugged a shoulder, "Fine. Any place in mind?"

Emmet paused and shrugged a shoulder, grin still intact in a way that made the President suspicious, "I don't know… wherever I guess."

Business rolled his eyes in a good nature, unlocking his car and swinging the door open, "We'll go to wherever the road takes us. Hop in Emmet my boy."

Emmet obliged almost instantly, walking around the car to hop into the passenger seat, sliding into the comfortable seat and buckling himself in tightly.

They found themselves sitting in the corner of a coffee shop – it really shouldn't have surprised either of them that they ended up there, they both loved coffee – with hot cups in front of them, the aroma drifting lazily through the shop.

"How's Lucy?"

Emmet's interest peaked at Business' question and he grinned over his cup, "Oh, she's fine, you know. We got some great news the other day!"

Business raised an eyebrow, "Really, like what?"

"Guess!" Emmet laughed softly as he drank his drink.

"You're getting a new house?"

Emmet pulled a face, "We just did. I'll give you a clue; there's going to be another set of footprints in our house."

Business' eyes widen and he let his mouth hang open before he replied, "You're getting a dog!?"

Emmet didn't respond, his smile fading into a look of confusion and he shook his head slowly, Business' look of pure excitement evaporating almost instantly.

"No… no dog. It only has two feet," Emmet watched as Business grew confused and he groaned softly, swallowing a large mouthful of his drink before he continued, "We're having a baby Business."

Business all but choked on his mouthful of coffee, staring at Emmet in both shock and joy, ignoring the burning sensation in the back of his throat. He coughed, Emmet reaching over to pat him on the back, the Special looking awkward as the passing people sent them strange looks.

"You alright man?" there was a soft tone to Emmet's voice and Business gave a small nod, pushing his coffee cup away from him as he did so.

"Yeah just… just a little shocked," he coughed a last time and rubbed absently at his throat.

"Why? I mean, we've been married three years now, it's really not that big of a surprise," Emmet shrugged a shoulder dismissively.

"I never pictured Lucy wanting to have children."

"Oh, she didn't at first. But she's known for awhile that I've always wanted children and she kind of fell in love with the idea slowly," Emmet grinned giddily and Business realized just how excited Emmet was at having his own children.

And that was when the realization set in, "I'm going to be a grandfather."

Emmet nodded enthusiastically, "Yeah! I mean, only if you want too… you don't have to if you don't want to, of course. I understand you're busy with being President and you've never looked after kids, so if you don't feel comfortable-"

"Emmet," the President cut the Special's babbled rant off with a raised hand and Emmet blushed slightly, "I'd love to be their grandfather."

Emmet grinned, giving a relieved smile that didn't fade away as he leaned back in his chair, "Lucy thinks it's going to be a girl and, to be honest with you, I hope it is."

Business smiled down at the table in front of him, "Have you figured out names yet?"

Emmet shrugged thoughtfully, "We agreed on Luke for a boy's name but we're leaning towards Emma as a girl's name."

"Fancy that, Emmet and Lucy being the parents to Emma and Luke," Business smirked as Emmet stuttered slightly.

"That would mean having more than one child!"

Business laughed and gave a happy shrug, "It could happen!"

Emmet opened his mouth, his response coming a little later, "I think we will. You know, to try and have both genders."

Business watched as Emmet's smile faded into a little one of pure joy, the Special's eyes dulling as he drifted off into ideas for the future. It was then, when Emmet turned to look out the window that Business realized how truly proud he was of Emmet.

"I'm so proud of you," the President whispered the words more to himself, positive that Emmet hadn't heard them.

But when Emmet's smile grew wider, Business knew he had.

	29. Chapter 29

**Part Fine/Final Part:** Business looks after Emma and Luke for the day and instantly regrets it.

**Characters:** Business, Emmet, Lucy

**Pairing:** Emmetstyle

**Genre:** Family, Humor

**Rating:** K

**Note:** I have no idea what you all call your grandparents, but I call mine Pa and Mama. So that's where this came from…

* * *

"Now you be good for Pa, okay?" Lucy gently tapped the end of Emma's nose, the five year old giggling softly and giving a nod.

"Yes Mummy, and I'll make sure Luke does too."

"That's my girl," Lucy pressed a soft kiss to Emma's forehead, straightening and watching as her energetic daughter bounced off into the large house Business called home. She grabbed Emmet's hand, the construction worker briefly glancing at her with a smile, Luke still held again his hip.

"Thanks again for looking after the kids," the Special smiled, letting Business gently take Luke from his hip, the President smiling at the three year old in his hold.

"No problem Emmet, how hard can it be?" Business' smile faded slightly when the two Master Builders before him shared a look, amused smiles dancing on their faces as they did.

He waved them off, their amused smiles still lingering in the back of his mind as he closed the door, leaning down to place Luke on the ground, the three year old wobbling off into the lounge room.

Really, how hard could looking after two little kids be?

* * *

"Do you like cookie dough ice-cream?" Emmet peered over the rainbow cone in her hand, the colorful ice-cream splattered across the tip of her nose and her chin.

Business had decided that – after two broken vases and a scribbled on wall – his house wasn't exactly little-kid-proof and had taken the two for ice-cream in hopes of keeping them occupied for a while.

He nodded, his own ice-cream cup – he had opted out of a cone – sitting in front of him.

Emma licked hers, straightening up in her seat with a smile, "So does Daddy. Mummy doesn't though, she likes mint."

"Really? And is rainbow your favorite?" Business asked the question as he leaned over and wiped the top of Luke's forehead, mentally asking himself how the three year old had managed to get ice-cream that far up his head.

"Yep! And Luke loves chocolate, but he always drops in on the carpet at home and Mummy gets a little angry."

"And does Daddy?"

Emma shook her head, licking her ice cream again before she rubbed it off of her nose, "No, he just laughs and cleans it up."

Business smiled at the thought, leaning back in his chair to enjoy his own ice-cream.

"Oops," Luke muttered the word, staring at the dark ice-cream that had fallen from his cone and onto the floor below his seat.

Emma giggled, covering her mouth with a rainbow stained hand, eyes glues to the mess on the floor. Business breathed a sigh, briefly closing his eyes before he grabbed a napkin and knelt down to clean the mess.

He straightened back up, scrunching up the napkin in his hand and tossing it to the centre of the table, watching as Luke stared longingly at his own cup of ice-cream. The President breathed a tired sigh and pushed it over, the little boy's eyes widening happily as he helped himself.

"He can't drop it when it's in a cup," Emma stated knowingly and Business stifled a laugh at her tone, nodding as seriously as he could in agreement.

He let them finish, ordering himself a milkshake to drink while he waited, leaning back in his chair and listening with interest as Emma babbled on another story he vaguely believed had actually happened. Luke was the last to finished, two shades of ice-cream splattered across both cheeks, nose and chin, the boy smiling up through the mess at the President.

Business grinned despite himself, gently wiping it away, Emma cleaning herself as she waited.

"Where are we going now Pa?" She grabbed onto his free hand, Luke held against his left hip as they exited and he shrugged.

"Anywhere you want Ems, anywhere you want."

* * *

In retrospect, he probably shouldn't have said that. They had ended up at the movies, the two kids eating popcorn – Luke almost spilling it twice – while they watched a kids movie that the President had never even heard of before.

They had gone to the park afterwards, Business trying to ignore the incredulous stares that people sent his way as he pushed Luke in the little kid swing, Emma swinging herself on the swing next to it. They had both run off after a while on the swings, climbing up the stairs and sliding down the slide, Luke stopping to play in the sand with a couple of other little kids every now and then.

It was late afternoon, well past the time Emmet and Lucy were to pick the kids up from his house and they were still at the park, Luke building a sandcastle as Business helped, gasping in surprised whenever Luke did something the little boy thought was amazing. Emma was nearby, lying in the sand and staring at the sky, singing a childish song under her breath and talking aimlessly when she paused between verses.

"I told you that they'd be at the park!"

The President looked up tiredly at Emmet's voice, Emma jumping to her feet and Luke laughing in the little, high pitched laugh that had captured Business' heart.

"Daddy!" Emma vaulted herself into Emmet's arms, the Special spinning around once and kissing her forehead softly. Lucy left his side, kneeling down to pick up the grinning Luke, the three year old instantly giving a cheerful shout of 'Mummy' as she did.

Business stumbled to his feet and brushed the sand off of his pants, "Emmet, Lucy, how was your day?"

Lucy grinned as she walked towards the car, Emma jumping from Emmet's arms to run after her.

Emmet watched them go with a fond smile before turning towards Business, "Our day was fine, yours?"

"Long." The two shared a laugh before they fell into a small silence, watching as Emma waved from her spot next to the car while Lucy buckled Luke in, the little girl's cheerful shout of 'thank you' reaching the two.

"Hey, thanks for looking after them. They really love spending time with you, you know that?"

Business shrugged a shoulder, "There my grandkids, it's my job."

Emmet hesitated slightly, dropping his gaze to the floor, "I better go. Thanks again Dad."

It was the word Dad that sent Business spiraling into a shocked state, watching almost unseeingly as Emmet slowly made his way to the car, back faced towards the President.

"Emmet!" he shouted the name after the Master Builder, Emmet turning to face him briefly. "No need to thank me son."

Emmet smiled a smile that Business would never forget, the President smiling one of his own.

And even when he finally got home, cursing the drawn on wall and broken vases, he still collapsed into his bed with a fond smile, the word Dad running through his mind as he fell into a deep sleep.

* * *

**A/N:** It's actually kind of hard for me to write little kids. I've no idea what age they start walking and talking and all of that; I have one little cousin, but she was diagnosed with a syndrome a while ago, and she's been extremely slow in learning to walk and talk. So I really don't know as much as some do. This also marks the end of the Father Business AU series. I hope you guys enjoyed it as much as I like writing it!

**Wafflestheninja** (I try to draw, but I'm no artist… I wish I could though. But seriously, tell me when you get an account so I can see them!)

**Rcdapikachu** (I like the name Lily. I have the names Luke and Emma stuck in my mind somehow… Connor (brother number 2) has Emmet hair and is going dressed as him to a convention. I just have to make a Lucy jumper and I can go as her.)

**MakyalaxCJ** (It'll be up in the next couple of hours.)

**PinkiePie** (Thanks for that!)


	30. Chapter 30

**Requested By:** edger230

**Prompt:** Benny has coffee and goes insanely hyper

**Characters:** Benny, Emmet, Lucy

**Pairing:** Emmestyle

**Genre:** Friendship, Humor

**Rating:** K

* * *

"Why would you give him coffee?" Lucy rose an eyebrow as she stared at her frantic boyfriend, the Special running after the blue Master Builder and ripping pieces from his hands.

"I didn't think this would happen!"

Lucy rolled her eyes and leaned against the doorframe, watching with a smirk as Benny pulled off another piece, only for Emmet to rip it from his hold once more.

"Spaceship!"

"No! Benny, you can't make a spaceship out of my kitchen!"

Lucy laughed when Emmet decided on tackling the astronaut to the ground, the two rolling until Emmet was able to keep him still.

"I really need a camera for this," Lucy spoke up from her position, Emmet's fiery gaze meeting hers.

"Don't you dare."

He was knocked back when Benny managed to get an arm free, the astronaut bounding away and floating against the ceiling, Emmet glaring up at him from the ground.

"Benny! Get down before you break something," he jumped up, wrapping one hand around Benny's ankle. The astronaut only laughed and floated higher and out of Emmet's front door, the Special all but pleading for him to land softly.

Lucy choked back a laugh as she raced after them, running down the front stairs of their apartment to find Benny floating up and away from the ground, Emmet screaming hysterically to be put down. Benny's energetic cackle only sounded, cutting through the high scream that tore from Emmet's throat and Lucy heaved a groan, running across the street to chase after them.

"Benny!" she called up at the astronaut, Benny looking down at her with a wild expression. Emmet had his eyes closed, both hands clutching at Benny's leg desperately.

"Lucy, get me down from here!"

"I'm working on it Emmet!" she vaulted herself up the side of the building, ignoring the incredulous stares the citizens of Bricksburg sent her and the two flying Master Builders.

Really, they should be use to strange happenings when Benny was around.

She flipped over the top of the roof, running and leaping to grab onto Emmet's ankle in hopes of pulling them down. She tugged, feeling Benny and Emmet come crashing down and only managed to jump out of the way as they fell onto the roof before her.

"Thanks," Emmet groaned as he rolled onto his back, blinking up at the sky with a dazed expression. "Remind me never to give Benny coffee again."

"Coffee? I want coffee!" Benny grinned from beside him, floating into a sitting position, arms spread out wide on either side.

"No! No more coffee," Emmet stumbled to his feet, letting Lucy help him up. He glared at the astronaut, Benny looking confused as he blinked back at him.

He suddenly gave a yawn and blinked furiously, landing on the ground and staring up at the two of them tiredly.

"He's crashing," Lucy muttered.

Emmet nodded with a small smile, "About time. That means we can go back to my apartment without turning my kitchen into a spaceship."

Lucy frowned suddenly, glancing away from the drowsy Benny to survey the roof. She scratched her head briefly and looked at Emmet, the special glaring at her suddenly as he realized their predicament.

"Lucy… how are we going to get off of the roof?"

Lucy winced and shrugged a shoulder, "I can get myself down… Benny could float you-"

"No. Not again, no floating."

"Guys… I could build a spaceship!" Benny leapt into the air with sudden energy, flying around the roof in a near blur as he looked for pieces.

Emmet groaned and ran after him, his annoyed shout of the Master Builder's name resounding around the rooftop.

Lucy merely rolled her eyes and leaned back against wall that separated her from the drop, watching with an amused expression as her boyfriend chased the blue clad astronaut in circles.

* * *

**A/N:** Have another one because I didn't update yesterday, and the above one is so short.

**Requested By:** Sol's Darkness

**Prompt:** Emmet realizes the Green Ninja actually has a name.

**Characters:** Emmet, Lucy, Lloyd, Benny, Gandalf

**Pairing:** Emmetsyle

**Genre:** Friendship

**Rating:** K

* * *

Emmet shifted on the spot, reaching up with a hand to rub at his eyes tiredly. They had just finished another Master Builder meeting, a selected few remaining behind to help design a better system of traversing through realms.

"I really don't see a problem with the tunnels," Emmet mumbled through a yawn, choosing to ignore the slight glare Lucy sent his way as she squeezed his hand. He was tired, beyond tired, but had stayed behind because she had. Truth be told, being a Master Builder and a construction worker was harder then it seemed.

"Spaceships are far better," Benny grinned from where he floated absently and Emmet shrugged a shoulder, ready to go home and crawl into bed.

"Not everyone knows how to drive a spaceship Benny," Lucy retorted and Benny scowled.

"What if we just got rid of the walls? Make everything one, open land?" The Green Ninja asked from where he was sitting on the ground but was quickly interrupted by Gandalf.

"Lloyd, as much as various people would like for that to happen, it can't at the moment. People are still adjusting, they need time to adjust before we change everything once more."

Emmet frowned and looked around the room, opening his mouth before closing it once more with a subtle shrug. He didn't know who Lloyd was, but guessed he must have just missed something entirely.

"I don't know, Lloyd has a point. Why not change everything so people adjust at once?" Benny asked and Emmet frowned once more at the name Lloyd.

"Guys-"

"Because people are struggling with what's changed already. How do you think Bricksburg citizens are going to handle have a sudden desert in their backyard? Or a fantasy world?" Lucy shot the questions at the astronaut, speaking over the start of Emmet's question.

"But it's going to happen eventually, why not now?" The Green Ninja asked, getting to his feet and staring between the two.

"Because Lloyd-"

"Alright!" Emmet shouted in frustration, the four other Master Builder's turning to face him, "Someone answer my question. Who's Lloyd?"

The Green Ninja frowned and raised a hand, "That would be me."

"But you're The Green Ninja…" Emmet trailed off, confusion lacing his voice.

"You really don't think that's my real name… do you?"

Emmet shrugged and shifted awkwardly, refusing to meet the amused looks before him, "I thought Lucy's name was WyldStyle when we first met."

Lucy gave a small laugh and pulled the embarrassed Special into her side, gently kissing his temple, "His name is Lloyd."

The Green Ninja grinned and waved, pulling back his mask to reveal a head of blond hair, "That's my name."

Emmet breathed a tired sigh and buried his head in Lucy's shoulder, "I'm too tired for this… people whose real names start with L and all that."

Lucy rolled her eyes and turned to the ground before she took a deep breath, "I think we're going to head off."

She pulled Emmet after her, hearing the numerous goodbyes sound after them. It wasn't until they were outside that Benny's amused shout reached them.

"Hey Emmet! My real name is actually Lenny!"

Both he and Lloyd laughed when Emmet heaved a loud and annoyed groan.

* * *

**A/N:** So sorry for not updating yesterday.

A huge thank you to the following for reviewing last chapter;

**Teddi 8347** (I'm glad you liked it and them calling him 'Pa'. Thanks for the suggestion too for the last few chapters, I'm really happy with how they turned out!)

**17blanceri **(I've seen the movie 5 times… I adore the movie more than anything at the moment and my brothers are starting to get annoyed…)

**Fireball107** (I'm glad you liked the series.) :)

**Edger230** (I had to have him say Dad at the end of series… it just had to happen. Into the jungle we go *pushed way through vines* if we get attacked by anything strange, just know that I suck at fighting…)

**Rcdapikachu** (I've never heard the name Emberly before… omg, I just got a mental picture of Benny holding this cute little kid… so sweet!)

**PinkiePie** (Thankyou! Hey, with your question on Where Are You, it is finished but it has a sequel.)

**Wafflestheninja** (They're on youtube!? Guess what I'm doing the next few nights… Yes, I've seen them. I like the one where Emmet's laughing and Batman's like 'Stop laughing it's… actually, it's a pretty good laugh.' And Emmet turns around with 'Then you're not going to hear it again.')

**Jilianbean** (Oh :( I'm so sorry for your loss! *hugs* I hope everything gets better soon and I'm here if you need!)

**ScootalooPie34** (Sorry for the wait!)

**Blaze Darkrunner** (That's probably why you can't read them word for word. I get like that sometimes, but I still just skim over the to get the general idea.) :P


	31. Chapter 31

**Requested By:** GoldBree

**Prompt:** Emmet gets a day off because he's been working so hard.

**Characters:** Emmet, Frank the Foreman, Lucy

**Pairing:** Emmetstyle

**Genre:** Friendship, Romance

**Rating:** K

* * *

"Ah, Brickowski, just the man I was looking for."

Emmet looked up from the schematics before him, tugging his hard hat further over his face to obscure the sun. He gave a brief, tired smile up at the foreman in front of him, opening his mouth to relay the status of the current building project.

"No need Brickowski, I just wanted to talk to you," Frank leaned against the table that held various tools and the schematics as Emmet gave a small frown of confusion.

"Have I done something wrong?"

Frank barked a laugh and shook his head, "Something wrong? Brickowski, you're our finest worker! But that's the problem, you work too hard. That's why I'm ordering you to take the rest of today off."

Emmet felt his jaw fall open and he stuttered through various words before he managed to get out a coherent question, "But, sir, I just started. I haven't even been here an hour-"

"Emmet, you saved the world just over a year ago. Not only have you helped shape this company into a far better one, you've also kept up your job as both the Special and a Master Builder-"

"I'm not actually the Special, the prophecy was made up-"

"That's not the point. The point is you're tired. I can see that, Harry can see that, even Gail can see you need a day off. So go home and catch up on some sleep or something."

Emmet didn't respond, frowning slightly as Frank straightened up and laid a strong hand on his shoulder.

"We can handle a day without you. Besides, you've already helped design the thing, now we just need to build it."

Emmet gave a reluctant nod before he murmured a reply, "Okay. But if you need help, call me."

Frank rolled his eyes good naturedly before he turned his back on the younger construction worker, "Just go home Brickowski."

* * *

Emmet hummed to himself as he walked into the circular room of the newly rebuilt Dog, catching Lucy's surprised glance as he smiled widely at her.

"I thought you were working today?" she greeted him, leaning forward to kiss him gently before leaning back against the wall.

He smiled, "Frank let me off. Apparently I'm working too hard or something. That's why I'm here, I decided to come help out."

Lucy shook her head, ignoring the frown he sent her way, "I agree with Frank. You're going home and you're getting some sleep. You're beyond tired Emmet, anyone can see that."

"But Lucy-"

"No buts. Go home and sleep. I'll be back in a couple of hours, I just have to help UniKitty with a problem, okay?"

Emmet sighed, "I can help."

"I know you can Babe, but you also need to sleep," she kissed him again, the construction worker melting into the kiss until she pulled away, sending him a small smile.

"We'll go out for dinner tonight, okay?"

"Fine," Emmet heaved a heavy sigh and turned, making his way from the Dog as his girlfriend made off to find UniKitty.

* * *

Emmet fell into the lounge room chair, all but glaring at the blank TV before him. He stifled a yawn, refusing to let the others win and fall asleep like instructed.

"I'm not tired, they're just overprotective," he mumbled to himself, moving his head to glare at the pot plant beside him. "Aren't they Planty?"

He frowned at the pot plant and groaned before turning to stare at the ceiling, mentally berating himself for talking to inanimate object again. He hadn't done that since the Kragle incident and Lucy moving in.

He yawned again and let himself drop to his side on the couch, his eyelids dropping closed as he stared at the TV.

What was the harm in having a small rest, if only to stop the others from worrying?

He drifted off into a heavy sleep, his slowed breathing the only sound in the empty room.

* * *

Lucy swung the door open, making sure to close it gently behind her for Emmet's sake. She hadn't expected her boyfriend to actually sleep, fully intending to come home and find him watching TV or building something out of sheer boredom.

She entered the lounge room, fond smile crossing her face when she found Emmet sleeping on the couch. The smile didn't drop from her face as she made her way to the couch, gently lifting his head so she could sit down and lay it in her lap.

Her smile faded into a soft one as she ran a hand through his hair, heart fluttering as he mumbled something incoherent, his head moving slightly.

"I guess we're not going out for dinner anymore," she mumbled and leaned back in the couch, grabbing the remote from nearby and switching the TV on, happy to sit and watch the news as her boyfriend slept peacefully in her lap.

* * *

**A/N:** I'm on a roll with light hearted chapters at the moment…

Thanks to the following for reviewing last chapter;

**Blaze Darkrunner** (Oh My G.O.S.H! You're review literally had me grinning like a fool! You're so nice in so many ways! I still can't form together a decent response!)

**12blanceri ** (I have Everything Is Awesome on my phone but always forget I do so when I'm blasting music while doing school work, halfway through my playlist – full of mostly rock music – EIA will start playing really loudly. You'll hear my Dad start laughing from the lounge room when it does…)

	32. Chapter 32

**Requested By:** Mcbasilrocks

**Prompt:** Finn leaves his LEGO sets behind like Toy Story 3

**Characters:** Emmet, Lucy, Finn

**Pairing:** Emmetstyle

**Genre:** Angst, Hurt/Comfort

**Rating:** K+

* * *

Emmet knew that, while they had their own lives, they were mere play things for a much larger race. But that hadn't stopped him from living life the way he was wanted to and he found that, when he and the others were controlled into an adventure, that he actually _enjoyed_ it. The others were all blissfully unaware that they were toys, being forced to move during their adventures by large, fleshy creatures.

On occasions Emmet found himself being carried away from Bricksburg and around a large house he guessed the large creature – named Finn – called home. He was never gone for long, also deposited back into his apartment to be found by Lucy or Benny, both with confused and concerned expressions and he always shrugged it off with an excuse of some work related conference he had to attend.

But as time grew on, Emmet knew something was wrong. They were going on less adventures and, while that meant he could go about his day as he pleased and be himself, that meant that something had happened to Finn.

And Emmet would be lying if he were to say he hadn't grown attached.

It was obvious to him – and The Man Upstairs who sometimes joined Finn in his games – that he was the flesh creature's favorite, Finn sometimes carrying him up to his room and talking to him as though he expected Emmet to answer aloud. The construction worker had, of course, answered but Finn had never heard.

It was one afternoon, Emmet working at a busy construction site when he was taken. He found himself in front of a much larger and older Finn, the fleshy looking at him with a sense of regret and confusion.

"I'm going to college soon."

Emmet didn't reply, wishing he could, in some way, move and answer Finn.

"I was going to take you with me. You know, just you and me, together in college. You could help me with my assignments and you could remind me of everything that happened down here."

Emmet couldn't ignore the panic that rose through his immovable chest, the thoughts of leaving everyone behind tearing his heart in two. But Finn breathed a heavy sigh and smiled as he sunk to the floor, back against the table that was still covered in Bricksburg and the surrounding realms.

"But that's not right. I'd be taking you away from Lucy… Man, I know you're not real, but I still feel guilty at the idea."

Emmet watched as Finn raised a hand and ran it through the shaggy mess of hair atop his head.

"I don't even know why I'm talking to you. You're a piece of plastic… I'm just… scared, I guess. I'm moving out and going to study so I can get a job. Maybe one day I'll have kids of my own and we can start our own LEGO family again. But I can't keep you in boxes until that happens, _if_ it happens, because that's wasteful."

Emmet was, if anything, confused. He didn't try and speak as he usually did, happy to sit and listen to Finn vent whatever confusion and frustration was running through his teenage – almost adult- mind.

"So I'm giving you away. I asked my sister if she wanted to keep you but she grew up far too early. I'd keep you if I could, I really would Emmet, but I don't have the room or time to set you all back up somewhere." He paused briefly and glanced at the sets above him on the table. "Next door's daughter just turned seven and she loves playing with you guys, so I'll give you to her."

That was when Emmet found himself placed back in Bricksburg, Finn's conflicted face the last thing he saw. He spent the rest of the day wandering around as though in a trance, his eyes wide as he tried to sort out just what was happening to him and his friends.

It wasn't for another week that they were actually moved. They had gone to bed one night, he and Lucy, and he had been woken up the next morning when Finn picked him up.

They weren't in the usual basement but outside, the parts of Emmet's universe thrown across a large yard. A little girl with dark hair and wearing a red dress with dark tights was holding Lucy and Emmet knew, instantly, the his girlfriend had caught onto what was going on; that they were mere play things.

"I need you to look after them, okay?" Finn was talking and Emmet listened, trying to ignore the creeping sadness that wrapped around his heart and tightened his chest.

The little girl nodded and looked at Lucy, turning her around in her hand, "She's my favorite."

Finn gave a shaky laugh from where he sat and nodded, "Her and Emmet are together, okay Anna?"

The little girl – Anna – nodded briefly and sat down quickly, frowning as she stared at the construction worker in Finn's grasp.

"Is that Emmet?"

Finn didn't respond but gave a small nod. Anna watched him and smiled suddenly.

"You're upset, aren't you Finn? I promise I won't hurt them and he and Lucy will be together forever and ever!"

Finn laughed and held Emmet out before him, staring down with large, sad eyes at the construction worker in his hand, "He was always my favorite. I'll miss him, you know that Anna?"

"Then play with him one last time! I'll play too!" Anna grinned and pulled over the custom park Finn had made when he was only eight. She deposited Lucy in the park, reaching over to grab Batman and Benny before dropping them in the park too. They were quickly joined by MetalBeard and UniKitty

"You forgot Business and Bad Cop," Finn smiled softly as Anna gasped and grabbed the two figures, placing them in the park too.

"It's Emmet's turn to join."

Finn hesitated before looking down at the figure in his hand, "I guess this is goodbye Emmet."

Finn joined Anna as the sun rose over the sky, the two running around and laughing, holding various figures in their hand as Finn and Emmet had one, last adventure together. It wasn't until late afternoon that he left, ignoring the tight feeling in his chest as he climbed into his car.

He drove off to the sight of Anna waving goodbye, Lucy and Emmet clutched tightly in one hand, their little, plastic smiles looking almost sad as they disappeared from his rear view mirror.

* * *

**A/N:** I'm so sorry for not updating during the last week. I'll throw up another update this afternoon before bed to make up for it.

A huge thank you to everyone who reviewed last chapter and, for those wondering, I am in fact not dead. I'd do review responses but I don't have time; I have an English lesson I need to get to.

However, to Teddi 8347 I hope you're doing better now and that you're a lot healthier!


	33. Chapter 33

**Requested By:** 17blanceri

**Genre:** Family, Friendship

**Note:** I humanized it.

* * *

"How in the Man Upstairs did this happen?" Lucy all but shouted the question, pure confusion etched across her face. She met UniKitty's warm blue gaze, watching as the pink haired girl bent down to pick up the little boy closest to her.

Lucy stared in absolute disbelief at the little, five year old in UniKitty's arms, the boy's messy blond hair falling around his chin and across his pale face. His eyes were a brilliant blue that held the wonder of the world and he wore an oversize spaceship themed shirt that fluttered around his knees.

"Is that Benny?" Lucy watched as the boy looked at her and grinned toothily before hastily nodded.

"They're adorable!" UniKitty squealed and spun Benny around once, the boy giggling and digging one had into the shoulder fabric of her light coloured dress. His other arm hung by one side, miniature spaceship clasped tightly in his fist.

Lucy didn't look away until someone tugged at the end of her hood and she adverted her dark gaze to the large, brown eyes that belonged to a much younger version of Emmet. He still had his hair parted and brushed to the side, but it was much more hastily and messy, more than just the usual back part sticking up. His brown eyes stared up at her in question and she knelt down to pick him up, holding him against her side with one arm, her other hand resting on his head as she ruffled his hair. He wore nothing more than the oversize, blue button up shirt he had been wearing that morning.

"Emmet," he pointed to himself and grinned proudly and Lucy smiled softly.

"Well hello there Emmet, I'm Lucy."

"Lucy pretty," he smiled and leaned against her with a soft yawn and her smile widened as she bounced him gently on her arm.

"Where are Ma and Pa?" the questioning and slightly upset voice came from the dark haired boy standing in front of them with his arms crossed against his chest. A pair of simple glasses were against his eyes and the black police uniform shirt hung around his knees, much like the other boys in the room. His hair was a mess and he stared with green eyes at the two girls before him.

Lucy knelt down before him and rested the hand that didn't hold Emmet on one of his shoulders, "I'm sure we'll find them. Do you, uh, know where they live?"

Good frowned and shook his head, biting his lip slightly, "I want my Ma."

UniKitty took over comforting from Lucy, pushing her gently out of the way and towards the frowning, child form of Batman as she took over.

"Hey, don't get upset Good, we'll find your parents and get you some clothes soon, okay?"

Good nodded and let UniKitty pull him in with an arm against her chest slightly, "My names Neeson."

"Neeson? That's a silly name," Benny pouted from where he was against UniKitty, leaning over to lean against Good with a weird expression.

"It is not!" Good glared up at him and stomped one of his feet, "Ma and Pa were going to name me Liam, but Ma liked Neeson better."

"Well I think Neeson is a wonderful name," UniKitty smiled and looked around her as though she were about to share a secret. She leaned in, her hand cupping her mouth as she let Benny down on the ground, the blond five year old standing up and leaning in to hear the secret, "My names pretty silly."

Benny gasped and looked up at her, his eyes shining brightly, "What's your name?"

UniKitty faked looking around her again and leaned in once more, "UniKitty." She leaned out with a nod as both Good and Benny looked up at her with gaping expressions.

"That's silly!"

"I like it!" Good grinned and UniKitty ruffled his hair gently.

Lucy watched from where she had sat on the ground next to the scowling Batman, Emmet sitting in her lap and leaning against her chest with a tired expression.

"What's the matter with you Mr. Grumpy?" She smirked as he pouted and refused to look up at her.

"Nothing."

"Oh really? That pout says otherwise."

Batman was still wearing his oversize Batman costume chest piece, the Batman cowl still covering the majority of his face and hanging loosely around his chin. He mustered a glare through the oversize black material up at her, "I'm not pouting."

"Okay, if you say so," Lucy smiled as Batman removed the cowl and threw it to the ground in frustration.

"I'm Bruce."

"I know. I'm Lucy, how do you do?" she faked a posh accent and he gave a small, almost embarrassed smile up at her.

"I'm fine. I want to go home to Alfred though," he looked almost hopeful.

Lucy sucked in a breath and watched as UniKitty laughed, Benny jumping onto her back for a ride as Good smiled up at her, "We'll get you home soon Bruce."

"Promise?"

She nodded, "Promise."

She only hoped they could find a way to revert them back soon.

* * *

"Guess who has clothes!"

UniKitty looked up from where she was sitting on the couch. Both Benny and Emmet were curled up on either side of her, their heads resting in her lap as they slept. Batman and Good – or rather Neeson – were sitting cross legged on the floor in front of the TV, watching the afternoon cartoons that lit up the small screen.

Bruce was first to scramble for his feet and grabbed the bag of clothes and shoes that Lucy was holding out for him. She gently handed one over to Good as well, the child cop taking the bag and going through it gently.

Lucy took a spot on the couch next to the sleeping Emmet, resting a hand on his back and rubbing circles gently. She dropped the two other bags next to floor.

"How about you boys take it in turns and go for a shower before changing into the pajamas I bought you?" Lucy smiled both warmly and tiredly at them and they nodded.

"I'll go first," Batman grabbed out the black pajamas, the short sleeved top with a large picture of the members of the Justice League while the pants were scattered in various Justice League symbols.

After Lucy had run the shower and left so he could undress himself she stood by the door, just in case anything major went wrong. She hummed gently as she leaned her head against the wall, listening as Good gently talked from beside her, his police themed pajamas clutched tightly in his small hands.

Soon enough, after they had woken Benny and Emmet for showers, the four boys were all sitting with wet hair and in their respected pajamas – Benny had space themed ones while Emmet's were blue with coloured stripes – as the news flashed across the TV screen. They weren't watching the TV though, but playing with the few LEGO sets that Lucy had bought for them while they were out and about.

"They'll eat spaghetti, right?"

Lucy looked away from the happy, laughing four before her, her smile dropping as she met UniKitty's curious gaze from the kitchen. The princess has decided on cooking dinner that night for them and Lucy hadn't argued.

Lucy shrugged, "I hope so. There's nothing else in this apartment at the moment."

UniKitty hummed a response and disappeared through the archway once more, leaving the dark haired female to watch over the four boys in front of her.

"Zoom! Spaceship! Zoom!" Benny clambered to his feet and dashed around, Emmet giggling as he grabbed the fire truck and chased after Benny, the little brunette crawling across the carpet as he steered the fire truck.

"Nee', we need backup!" Emmet shouted gleefully and Good looked up from where he was wrestling with the police cruiser he was trying to build. Unlike the other three boys, he was trying to follow the instructions provided and failing all the same.

"Here, I'll help," Lucy moved so she was sitting next to him and he timidly handed the half complete figure to her. Within a minute she had it complete and sitting in the palm of her hand, happy smile on her face as Good stared with wide eyes, amazed at how fast she had built it.

"That's 'mazing!" he gasped and took it from her with a quick thank you, driving it across the carpet hurriedly to catch up with Benny and Emmet.

Batman jumped out from where he had hidden behind the couch when Benny ran past, his LEGO Batmobile flying after Benny's spaceship.

"Your car can't fly," Benny cackled as he jumped forward, holding his spaceship up as high as he could.

Batman gave a triumphant laugh, "Can so! It's a Batmobile, it can do anything!"

Lucy reached forward, digging through the pile of LEGO's in the room as she quickly built her own figure. She laughed, feeling more carefree and younger then she had in years as she drove after Benny, her car driving alongside Emmet's fire truck.

UniKitty dished up the spaghetti in six bowls and placed them evenly around the circle table. She poured six glasses of the light colored soft drink that was in the fridges door before setting them on the table.

"No! I've been defeated!"

UniKitty frowned as she leaned into the lounge room, grinning crossing her face as she saw Lucy roll onto her stomach, both Emmet and Benny jumping on top of her as their vehicles reached for hers. Good and Batman crawled around her, their own vehicles attacking hers.

"My car, no! Revenge!" she shouted and gently pushed Emmet and Benny off of her, pinning the smaller Special down to the ground as she tickled him mercilessly. His squeals echoed around the room and Lucy laughed along as he pleaded through his laughs and joyful tears for her to stop. She grunted slightly as Benny wrapped his arms around her neck and climbed onto her back, trying desperately to pull her off of Emmet.

"No, Em! She's going to eat you!" he shouted through a laugh and Lucy couldn't help but laugh harder as Good grabbed one of her legs and pulled. Batman grabbed her left arm and tried to pull but she held him down and tickled him as well, his cheerful shrieks reaching her ears.

"Dinner!" UniKitty's grin widened as Lucy froze and looked at her startled, blushing in embarrassment as she did.

"You win this time boys, but I'll win next time!" Lucy turned back to the boys and faked an evil laugh, jumping to her feet, Benny still hanging off of her back and Good still wrapped around one of her legs. She looked down at the grinning, tiny cop latched onto her with a fake frown, "What's this? I have a parasite!"

She took large, uneven steps forward and Good giggled, Benny shrieking as he hung from her neck, his head buried into the fabric against her back.

"Look UniKitty! I have a parasite! Will you remove it for me?" Lucy grinned and UniKitty shook her head in disbelief at just how carefree Lucy was as she knelt down.

"It's an ugly one too Lucy!" she shouted up and Good laughed loudly as she wrapped her arms around his waist and pulled him off. She held him upside down against her chest as she walked into the kitchen, depositing him into the chair next to Batman. Both Batman and Emmet were already sitting at the table, forks shoveling food into their mouths.

Benny jumped from his spot on Lucy's shoulder and climbed into the chair next to Emmet, the two girls taking up the last chairs at the table.

"No need to eat like pigs boys, the foods not going to disappear!" UniKitty smiled as Emmet and Batman blushed before the Special frowned

"I hate pigs."

Lucy snorted a laugh into her drink before she gulped the liquid down, "Why?"

Emmet shrugged, "They smell funny."

Lucy met UniKitty's amused look and helped herself to the spaghetti. The two women ate in silence as the boys chatted about something or other, their talk occasionally stopped by tired yawns and rapid blinks.

"I'm tired," Batman muttered as he and Benny pushed their bowls forward. They both jumped down from the chairs with happy thanks and made their way back into the lounge room, quickly joined by Emmet.

Good looked at them over the table with a small smile, "Do you need help cleaning up? Ma always tells me to be helpful."

"Its fine Neeson, but that you," UniKitty smiled warmly as he nodded and smiled back at her before running to join the others in the lounge room.

"Gosh, they're adorable!" UniKitty all but squealed as she leaned back in her chair, keeping Lucy company as she finished her own meal.

"But they're active."

UniKitty smiled as Lucy got to her feet, bundling up the dirty bowls and cutlery and dropping them into the kitchen sink. The princess did the same for the cups and joined Lucy as they made their way into the lounge room.

They stopped in the archway, smiles lighting up their faces instantly when they realized just what had happened.

The four boys were all curled up on the couch, Benny against Emmet's side, the Special's head in Good's lap as the cop leaned against Batman who leaned against the side of the couch. They were all asleep, their chests rising as the murmured incoherent sentences in their soft, childlike voices.

UniKitty smiled fondly and made her way to the couch, gently moving Batman so she could curl up in the corner of the couch, his head against her chest. Lucy came back with small, throw over blankets and draped them softly over the boy's shoulders. She picked Emmet up, cradling him against her chest as she squeezed into the end of the couch, wrapping their blanket around them. She yawned and eyes the mess of LEGOs on the floor and decided that cleaning it up tomorrow would be the better idea.

"Tomorrow, we'll find out how to get them back."

UniKitty nodded as she closed her eyes and leaned against the back of the couch, "Okay."

They both fell asleep with the four, child figures of their closets friends around them.

**A/N:** Long chapter! I've meaning to write this prompt for a while now but had trouble figuring out how to write it. I have this weird headcanon where Good's name is Neeson and Bad's is Liam because I'm a weird person. Also, if there are any major, major mistakes, please tell me so I can go back and fix them :)

Thanks to the following for reviewing last chapter;

**Armored Soul** (Toy Story 3 had me crying like a baby...)

**Blaze Darkrunner** (I wanted there to at least be some sort of happy ending, so I kept them together :) )

**AnimeKitten** (Thanks for pointing that out, I'll go and change it. I'm nowhere near a decent editor...)

**edger230** (Have a happy chapter to make up for the sad last chapter. uh... I like both ideas. Why don't you do three parts to Looking Back and then do the Emcy friendship growing up story seperately? I'd love to read that one especially! *snaps a picture of Emmet at the stream* beautiful!)

**PinkiePie** (The link didn't work... what website is it on and what's your username so I can read it?) :)

**wafflestheninja** (Omg, ducks? I want a duck!) :P

**rdapikachu** (I read every single review I get. I actually monitor Guest reviews because there was one time where I was getting heaps of unneeded stuff. A couple of chapters ago I totally forgot I was doing that and wrote up review responses to the reviews showing up int he review log. Unfortunately, I hadn't accepted/declined guest reviews before hand... and that is why you didn't get a response a couple of chapters ago. But I do read your comments, trust me I do, and I love them all to bits. Sorry about that, the fault is mine because I'm a dumb blond! Thanks for revewing!)

**Teddi 8347** (I hope you get 100% better soon! I hate being sick, but I've never had anything as bad as you. English isn't too bad... it's Geography I struggle with the most :/ I like Finn as a character :) And I somehow just imagine him having a bond with Emmet even though Emmet's not real to him...)

**A Nonny Mouse Fangirl** (You laze person! Joking, of course :) Haha, thanks!)

**Genre:** Friendship, Humour

**Rating:** K

* * *

Benny couldn't keep the goofy grin from his face as he zoomed around his house. It was a nice house; two storied with two roomy bedrooms, a well sized bathroom and a living room that easily fitted the gang. He had bought it not long after he had become an astronaut officially, choosing it for the location rather then the size. Afterall, he could see space centre and observatory from his back porch.

The Master Builder zipped up and down the stairs, carrying the large piles of blankets and pillows that would no doubtfully cover the lougeroom floor. It always ended that way, anyway.

Benny liked having his friends over. He also like watching long marathons of movies that he had seen plenty of times before but never failed to keep him entertained. So when Emmet had suggested they have a weekly movie night, he was quick to offer up his apartment as the usual place. There had been little argument; Emmet and Lucy's apartment was too small, TVs didn't work on a pirate ship, the Bat cave was strictly off limits and UniKitty was leaving the reconstruction of her own house until the whole of Cloud Cuckoo Land was rebuilt.

A sharp knock to the door brought Benny to his senses and he floated towards the door, landing softly and swinging it open as his infamous grin widened.

"Batman, hello!"

Batman grunted a simple reply, pushing past Benny and making his way to the loungeroom without a sound. He always did take a while to warm up at social events.

But it didn't bother Benny, the astronaut still grinning as he made his way back into the kitchen, leaving the door open for the others when they arrived.

"Benny, man, we're here!" Emmet's voice carried into the kitchen.

Benny re-entered the loungeroom, hands full of bowls of various sweets and unhealthy food, both Emmet and Lucy grabbing a couple of bowls off the top of the pile to help lower the load. He grinned gratefully, leading the way back into his spacious loungeroom, gently placing the bowls down on the table he had pressed against a wall for times like this.

"Thanks man, I appreciate it. There's a couple more in the kitchen, can you help?" He landed in front of Emmet, the Special nodding almost instantly and following Benny out of the room, leaving Lucy to fall into the seat next to Batman and try and draw out a conversation with the Dark Knight.

"UniKitty and MetalBeard should be here soon," Benny handed Emmet a few bowls before grabbing the last couple, turning to see a small frown evaporate from the newest Master Builder's forehead. "What's the matter?"

Emmet's mouth opened slightly before he closed it once more and he shook his head, small smile flitting across his lips, "Don't worry, let's get this food out there, shall we?"

"If you say so," Benny shrugged a shoulder, leading the Special into the loungeroom once more to pile the bowls and plates atop the long table designated for sweets and drinks. Lucy and Batman had fallen into a conversation of sorts, low voices and small chuckles filling the near silent room.

"Hi!" UniKitty burst through the doorway, bringing with her smiles and a light that seemed to always be around when she was. She grinned as she made her way to the couch, taking up a spot on the various blankets that covered the floor just in front of the TV. "Are we all here or is MetalBeard coming tonight?"

"No, MetalBeard has decided to come tonight. I hope he doesn't mind the sci fi classics!" Benny grinned as he flopped onto the blankets next to UniKitty, the princess grinning down as he smiled up at her.

Batman groaned from his position in the corner of the couch, scooting over so Emmet would slide into the seat next to Lucy, the female Master Builder leaning against his side as he wrapped an arm around her shoulder, "Do we have to watch your dumb space movies?"

Benny frowned as he held the DVD case in front of him, "They're not dumb. They're funny and interesting and have complex storylines and sure, the graphics aren't the greatest, but they have characters and plot that make up for it-"

The rest of the group tuned Benny's rambling out, knowing full well that the astronaut could carry on for hours with various reasons as to why his 'sci fi classics' were better then any of the newest stuff playing in cinemas and recently released to DVDs.

"G'afternoon me lads!" MetalBeard's loud, cheery shout echoed from outside and Benny gave an excited chuckle, floating until he was on his feet so he could run towards the door.

"MetalBeard, you came! You'll love the movies I chose, I think you'll find the technology- oh, are you alright!?"

Emmet looked up from where he and Lucy were talking, face slackening into an expression of shock as he met MetalBeard's annoyed expression. And suddenly the room erupted in laughter, even Batman chuckling under his breath as he watched MetalBeard struggle from his position.

"Benny, me lad, I be stuck in yer doorway," MetalBeard grunted the words as he tried to move, all but throwing himself forward to no avail. Benny forced himself to stop laughing, shooting

amused glares at the group behind him. Emmet stumbled to his feet, still chuckling half heartedly under his breath as he did so.

The Special joined Benny by the door, both wearing matching smirks and amused expessons as they stared up at the much larger Master Builder.

"Stop yer gawkin' and get me out of 'ere!" MetalBeard glared harshly down at the two and both males had the decency to look ashamed.

Emmet gave an embarrassed cough and shifted on the spot before he clapped his hands once, "Initiate plan 'Get MetalBeard out of the door and into the party'!"

Benny snorted before he floated towards the back door, "I'll get behind him and push. You pull when I say so."

Emmet waited with both of his hands tightly wrapped around one of MetalBeard's own, pulling harshly when Benny's shout of 'now' reached his ears. He could hear Benny straining on the other side of the door as he pushed.

Both Emmet and Benny gave up with frustrated sighs, falling onto the ground on their respected sides, ignoring the amused laughter from the loungeroom spectators.

"You guys do realize that, if you get him inside, he'll still have to leave eventually?" There was no mistaking the amused tone to Lucy's voice.

"He can just transform into a photo copier and- that's it! MetalBeard, transform!" Benny's sudden shout carried into the loungeroom and Emmet wanted to face palm at how simple the solution was.

MetalBeard transformed before him, turning into a very respectable photo copier that could easily fit through the astronaut's doorway.

"Why didn't we think of that in the first place?" Emmet muttered as he got to his feet, resting both hands on the side of the photo copier. Benny's relieved face appeared on the other side and the two shared a look.

"Push him out; I'll take you all for a spaceship ride instead. It will be easy."

Emmet only nodded as he pushed, muscles straining as he did so. They managed to get MetalBeard back outside, the pirate instantly transforming and rubbing the back of his neck sheepishly.

"That means no dumb space movies, right?" Batman appeared at the door, Lucy and UniKitty behind him.

Benny grinned from beside his spaceship and shook his head, "No spaceships; just space."

MetalBeard looked up from where he was standing and smiled, "It sounds better then being stuck in yer doorway."

Benny and Emmet only laughed and nodded in reply.

	35. Chapter 35

**Requested By:** Me

**Prompt/Summary:** Emmet can still feel the Piece of Resistance against his back.

**Characters:** Emmet, Lucy

**Pairing:** Emmetstyle

**Genre:** Angst, Hurt/Comfort

* * *

Emmet wasn't as weak as everyone expected him to be; years of working at construction sites, lifting heavy objects, putting them together and constructing buildings – even with the help of machinery – had helped him develop a strength he rarely found the need to use.

But even that hadn't prepared him for how heavy the Piece of Resistance had been. It was a large, bright red brick like thing that had been, of all things, Kragled to his back, weighing him down and rendering him slow and weaker then he would have been without it. He had, however, refused to show evidence of just how heavy it was; smiling and joking and following – or leading, really – the others into battle.

Emmet would be lying if he said he hadn't been slightly relieved when Business had cut the Piece from his back; his back had relaxed almost instantly, his shoulders free as he rolled them gently, trying to ease the pain that carrying the Piece had brought upon his back.

But as he watched Business toss it out the window _"accidentally"_, he realized that he would carry a thousand Pieces if it meant keeping the world safe.

It was when something brushed against his back – be it a hand or something he ran into – that he felt the Piece of Resistance weighing him down once more, the sticky, harsh feeling of dried Kragle coating his back making his skin itch in desperation to get it off of his back and as far away from him as possible. It wasn't all the time, just in rare occasions when he was tired and stressed and every little thing set him off out of frustrations and fatigue.

It was one of those times; he had just arrived home from work, his eyes wide in slight panic as he focused on breathing steadily, knowing full well that Lucy would be inside and would start to worry fiercely if she even suspected that something was even slightly wrong with him.

And Emmet was Emmet; he _hated_ making people worry.

So he opened the door as quietly as he could, trying to ignore the tightness in his chest and the unforgettable feeling that Frank's hand had brought upon his back. Emmet knew Frank hadn't meant anything by it; he had merely been patted Emmet on the back with gusto, grinning down at the construction worker with a smile on his face, pleased with just how fast Emmet had been working that day.

It was then, when the heavy hand came into direct contact with Emmet's back, that the Special felt a sudden weight on his back, the harsh surface of the Kragle scratching through the fabric of his shirt and against his back, rubbing it raw and leaving its mark.

Emmet breathed a heavy sigh, closing the door quietly behind him before he made his way to the bathroom. He hoped, desperately, that he could get into the shower and wash away the feeling before Lucy realized he was home.

But luck wasn't on his side – it never seemed to be when he needed it most – and Lucy came out of the bathroom, wet hair tied up loosely just as Emmet reached for the door.

"Babe!" Lucy smiled happily up at him and he swallowed thickly, forcing a smile he knew was fake in every sense of the word.

And judging by the fading smile and worried light that appeared in her eyes, Lucy knew too.

"Emmet, what's wrong?"

"Nothing, nothing's wrong. I just need a shower, so if you don't mind," Emmet rambled, trying to scoot around his girlfriend who blocked the doorway, only to have her step into his way, hands on her hips and raw concern burning fiercely in her eyes.

"Emmet, I know something is wrong, just tell me."

His shirt was growing heavier with every passing second he stood staring down at her, pleading with his eyes for her to let him through the door so he could take his shirt off and get rid of the feeling.

"Emmet," the warning tone in her voice forced him to look away and he tugged at the sleeves of his shirt in desperation, squirming on the spot as he felt sweat break out on his forehead. He looked around rapidly, desperate for a way out.

It was when Lucy's gentle, caring hand landed on his shoulder that he explode, jumping backwards as his breath became far more rapid than it should be, coming out in desperate gulps as he all but tore his shirt and vest from his body and dropped it to the floor before staring down at it with wild eyes.

"Emmet, calm down," Lucy moved instantly, grabbing one of his hands in hers, her free hand cupping his face and forcing him to look her in the eyes. Her heart dropped as she registered the burning desperation that shone bright in the eyes she loved so much.

"I can still feel it," his voice came out jumbled and cracked, the sounds slurring together in a way that, if it had been anyone else, they wouldn't have understood. But Lucy was Lucy and nothing held her heart as much as Emmet and she could, with ease, piece together just what he was saying.

"Feel what, your shirts off," she spoke in a tone she rarely used on anyone else and Emmet calmed down slightly, his eyes still darting around, resting on the shirt and vest briefly before he looked away again.

"The Kragle, the Piece, I can still feel it Lucy," he let out a sob, his vision suddenly blurry and he blinked rapidly, refusing to look desperate and broken in front of his girlfriend who he knew was so much stronger then he was, if not physically then mentally.

Lucy didn't have a response, her mind thrown into a state of shock and guilt as she stared into Emmet's eyes, watching as tears rose and were blinked back just as quickly as they came.

She pulled him in for a sudden hug, resting her arms around his waist, careful to not make a tight grip and to free his back from any unwanted weight.

"I'm sorry," he buried his head into her shoulders, tears now falling and turning the shoulder of her beloved hood damp, his shoulders heaving and body shaking as he cried.

"Don't be," she closed her eyes and gently rocked them on the spot, wanting to rub gentle circles into his back but knowing that it would just make things worse rather than help. "How often?"

Emmet leaned back and swallowed, releasing a shuttering, pent up breath before he responded, "Not too often."

She nodded and leaned up to kiss him gently on the lips, feeling him give a weak smile against her lips before he kissed her back hesitantly, "You come straight to me; I don't care if you're at work or a meeting or whatever, you come straight to me and I'll make sure you're okay, got it?'

Emmet nodded and rolled his shoulders, his back aching the same way it had when the Piece had first been cut from his back.

"Good, now go for a shower; take as long as you want. When you get out I'll order take away and we'll watch a movie, okay? Get your mind off of everything," she smiled hopefully and he gave a small nod, tears still trickling down his cheeks even if he wasn't as upset and broken as he had been minutes ago.

He let her kiss him once and wipe the last, stray tears away more before he entered the bathroom, shutting the door behind him.

He could still feel it against his back; the Kragle cutting into his skin if he moved a certain way. And he could still feel the Piece of Resistance weighing heavily as it clung to his back, slowing his movement as he stepped into the shower.

But as the hot shower water ran down his back, the feeling slowly subsided; the water washing away the Kragle the same way the antidote had freed the citizens of Bricksburg.

And Emmet knew, instantly, that if his girlfriend was willing to help him through whatever traumatizing emotions were running wild through his mind and body, that he would be fine in the end.

_**IMPORTANT A/N:**_ Hey guys, sorry I haven't been updating. I've been super stressed with school and home life that this has been the last thing on my mind. I also have a problem; I re formatted my laptop the other day for various reasons and forgot to save the request/prompt list onto my usb. I saved all my school stuff, photos, music and fanfiction folders but, for some reason, my prompt list wasn't in the designated folder. I have the worst memory and the only one I can remember is a food fight one which will be the next chapter.

So in other words, requests are now being accepted. There isn't a guarantee that I'll accept it though; I don't want to accept every prompt and do a half decent job on one because I can't write it, I'd rather pick and write the ones I know I can do well and to the best of my ability. But I will try and write as many prompts as I can.

So please, if you sent in a request and it hasn't been posted, send it in again and I'll see what I can do. I don't accept OC's, unless it's for a good reason; someone's parents, future kids, stuff like that. They can be as dark and deppressing or as light and fluffy as you want them to be; don't be afraid to submit anything :) I don't judge, trust me!

Thanks heaps guys and I hope to hear from you soon :D

Best Wishes,

Taylor *enter adorable heart here to show my love for each of my readers*

* * *

Lucy should've known that the picnic would end up the way it had. She didn't have a problem with it though; she was always one for activities that included being active and keeping her from sitting around for too long.

So when Benny – it didn't really surprise her that he had started it – had thrown part of his slice of cake at Emmet, hitting the Special on the cheek and leaving a splatter of chocolate icing against his cheek, she wasn't surprised that an all out food fight had begun.

She ducked behind the bush, not caring if the young couple who walked hand in hand behind her sent her an odd look as she nodded their way, large handful of cake squashed in her hand as she hid.

They had taken it to the extreme and changed it from a normal, everyday food fight to a full on battle of epic proportions, ducking and hiding, sudden, joy filled shouts and squeals echoing around the park as they were met with a face full of food.

None of them cared about the judgmental, dirty looks that people shot their way as they ran around in chaos.

Lucy crouched where she was, smirking when she saw the flash of pink from between the trees ahead. She darted forward and watched as UniKitty stopped where she was, peering around the wall of the public toilet block for any sign of the others, the bowl of whipped cream Emmet had prepared for the pancakes floating gently above her head as she levitated it with her horn.

Lucy threw her arm back before she vaulted the slice of cake in her hand at the princess, watching with a laugh as UniKitty jumped with a sudden squeal as the chocolate stuck to her side, coating her usual pink with a mud coloured stain.

The princess laughed as she looked up and instantly took after Lucy, the female Master Builder still laughing as she jumped over park benches and dove into the familiar bush she had been hiding in before, crawling through it and pushing herself out of the other end as UniKitty came after her.

She ran back to the picnic site and scooped up a bowl of grapes, picking a few off of the stem and throwing them at the princess as she advanced.

Lucy gasped suddenly when something slightly cold and sticky was dropped on her head. Half melted vanilla ice cream dripped down from the top of her head as it mixed into her hair, falling so it coated the top of her hood and her face. She turned around slowly, UniKitty's laugh echoing loudly behind her as she came face to face with a smirking Benny who, very quickly, spun around and vanished from sight once more.

"You better run!"

Lucy chased after him as UniKitty caught up, the princess instantly shouting that the rules had changed to pairs.

* * *

Benny grabbed Emmet's hand as he passed the Special, forcing the construction worker to follow him when Benny let go of his hand.

"Whoa, man, what's up?"

"It's pairs man and I may or may not have dropped the ice cream on Lucy!" Benny glanced over his shoulder, eyes widening when he realized how close Lucy was and he sped up, Emmet following him as they weaved through the trees, grins on their faces as they tried to get safely back to the picnic area.

They both glanced over their shoulders briefly, frowning when both Lucy and UniKitty came to a halt before turning and running away quickly. Both males frowned before turning to face forward, both giving small shouts of surprise as they collide with an awaiting Batman.

The Dark Knight held out fistfuls of sandwiches, letting both Benny and Emmet slam into his hands as they skidded to a stop too late. He watched in satisfaction as the two younger men stumbled forward before falling face first into the MetalBeard's awaiting hands that were cupped together and full of the sticky soft drink they had all brought.

Emmet and Benny could hear the others laugh as they pushed themselves away from MetalBeard's hands, grinning as they fell onto the floor with soft laughs.

They didn't move until Lucy and UniKitty returned.

"We're out of food," Lucy announced, her smile evident in her voice and Benny groaned suddenly.

"I didn't get to eat any of it though."

Emmet rolled onto his stomach and pushed himself to his knees before glancing sideways at Benny with a smirk, "You have sandwich in your hair."

"Thanks Captain Obvious, but I can't eat that, can I?"

The gang gave a joined, cheerful laugh as they sank to the ground to join the two males who already had spots before they all fell into a companioned silence, happy smiles playing across their faces.

They ignored the strange looks people were sending their way.

* * *

Benny refused to let the panic set in as he wrestled with the controls of his spaceship, small, almost incoherent curses leaving his lips in gasps of desperation. He could feel the rising panic grip his mind, tightening his chest and forcing his heart to beat rapidly in his chest.

He felt his vehicle shudder underneath him before coming to a halt suddenly, forcing the astronaut forward in his seat, pained and unbelieving grunt tearing itself from his lips as his helmet fell from his head to crack loudly against the floor.

Benny didn't move from his seat, hands grasping the steering in an iron grip, eyes wide as he stared through tangled strands of blond hair out of the window. He wasn't aware of the sudden, hollow ache in his chest, or how rapid his breathing was. He wasn't aware of anything other than the nagging sensation that he was stuck in space and no one was coming to save him.

And then it set in; no one was coming and he was stranded.

He threw himself from his seat, eyes darting uselessly around the interior of his spaceship, a desperate hope clinging to the thought that he could, somehow, find the problem inside.

He let out a frustrated cry when he couldn't find the fault and he scooped his helmet up, fully intending to try and find the problem outside. It wasn't until he had the helmet secured over his head once more that he realized the problem.

It was cracked far worse than it had been moments earlier.

And that meant he would die if he went outside.

He sunk to the floor slowly, knees slamming into the cold floor as he leaned hopelessly against the wall. The world slowed around him and the horror of the situation sent in.

Benny let out a small sob, blinking rapidly as the tears blurred his gaze and threatened to fall down his cheeks. He swallowed thickly and closed his eyes, breathing in a deep, calming breath he knew _they_ would tell him to take in.

He moved so his back was leaning against the wall and forced himself to do the math. He glanced around the spaceship, muttering numbers and equations under his breath. It wasn't until he came to the conclusion that he let out another, pent up breath, closing his eyes and resting his head back against the wall.

"Due to system failure, I have about two days worth of oxygen left," his voice caught in his throat and he stared longingly at the radio, wishing that the systems would run long enough for him to call _them_ one last time.

He finally let his tears fall as he reached for the compartment where he stored the most important things to him, pulling out an old photo frame. He stared down at it, smiling sadly as the tears dripped down his cheeks, small, choked sobs tearing from his throat. He ran a finger over the smiling faces of the two photos, one on top of the other inside the frame.

Both Bad Cop and Good Cop smiled up at him, and Benny hated that he wouldn't see them ever again.

"I love you," the words were jumbled and the sounds slurred together but he meant it.

He raised the photo frame and rested his forehead against it as everything turned black.

* * *

"Ben, wake up," Bad all but shouted the words as he gently shook the astronaut beside him.

Benny jerked painfully in his sleep, eyes screwed shut and incoherent words leaving his lips in desperate pleas that stabbed into the cop's heart and filled it with concern.

"Ben, wake up, you're fine," he shifted on the bed so he was kneeling next to the cringing astronaut, Benny tangling himself in the sheets as he moved.

"Ben!"

Benny shot forward, gasping and reaching out with a hand to fist the fabric of Bad's simple shirt, eyes wide as he looked around him wildly. He let out a sob as reality set in and he turned his head slowly to look up at Bad, terrified that his boyfriend wasn't really there.

"Bad?" The tears spilled from his wide eyes and he shot forward, arms wrapping instinctively around the older man's neck, head buried into the strong shoulder as his entire body shook with the force of his harsh sobs, mumbled apologies for waking the cop up leaving his lips in a jumble of words.

Bad shushed him gently, wrapping one arm around the Master Builder's waist before resting the other hand on his back, rubbing gentle circles into the fabric of the blue, space themed shirt.

"I was in space and the spaceship stopped working and I was running out of oxygen and you weren't there and I couldn't get back and I'm so, _so_ sorry Bad," Benny sobbed into the officer's shoulder, trying and failing to calm himself.

"Ben, listen to me, you're not in space. You're here in our apartment and _you're safe_," Bad leaned back, forcing Benny to look at him with the hand that had previously rubbed circles into his back. "I'm not going anywhere."

Good Cop switched in quickly, smiling reassuringly down at the still crying astronaut before pulling him in forcibly for a hug of his own, "And neither am I buddy."

Benny sniffled as the tears ceased to fall and dried against his cheeks. His arms around Good's neck loosened slightly and he leaned into the hug, tilting his head to the side and closing his eyes as a wave of fatigue washed over him.

"Thank you," he mumbled the words and Good rocked them gently.

"You talk to us whenever you need buddy, okay? We love you so, so much; it would kill us if something were to happen to you," Good kissed the top of Benny's hair gently before resting his chin atop the head as he closed his eyes.

"I love you both too," Benny sniffled.

They didn't move until Benny drifted off into the first peaceful sleep for the night and Good gently moved them so they were laying across the bed and not kneeling on it, a strong arm still wrapped protectively around Benny's waist and holding him close to his chest.

Both he and Bad weren't going to let their astronaut go and Benny knew that.

**A/N:** I really enjoyed writing that one :)

A huge thank you to the following for reviewing last chapter;

**\- wafflestheninja **(Yeah, but I struggle to sit through something with bad quality…)

**\- rcdapikachu **(The problem is is that Caticorn is an oc, and because I didn't create him, I don't want to write him just in case I disappoint you. That, and not a lot of people like ocs…. Does that make sense? I'm not the best at explaining things… :/ )

**\- Blaze Darkrunner **(Road to Recovery is taking me forever to write :/ )

**\- ArmoredSoul **(I'm glad it made you laugh and I hope things look up soon!)

**\- edger230 **(We could try and embrace our inner Master Builderness and build an epic tree house… or attempt to, atleast…)

**\- A Nonny Mouse Fangirl **(I have a really laid back Emmestyle chapter with them just chilling and being adorable together while eating pie and talking about their childhoods… which means a teddy bear will pop up!)

**\- Teddi 8347 **(I got the numbers wrong… I've been waiting for that to happen for awhile now… I'm glad you liked the chapter, and your new request sounds really fun :D )

To the guest reviewers who didn't leave a name, thank you so much! To the one who mentioned a GCBC Master Builder one shot, I did a chapter where Emmet was teaching him, but if you want one where he is one I can do that for you!

Lucy glanced up from the magazine when she felt the couch dip beside her. She gave a soft, sleepy smile when Emmet rested across the couch, his head coming to lay gently in her lap as he smiled up at her.

"Hey."

"Hey Babe," she leaned forward to drop the magazine on the coffee table before she leaned back in the chair, one hand holding her head as she rested her cheek in it while the other one combed through the construction worker's hair.

"I've been thinking," Emmet focused momentarily on the plate resting on his chest and Lucy only just realized that he had a plate with a hot, apple pie resting on his chest. "That we don't know a lot about each other's childhoods."

"Hmm?" Lucy knew it was a lazy Sunday and she closed her eyes as she focused on her boyfriend's voice.

"Well, we should tell each other," the Special rose a forkful of the pie to his lips before he chewed it slowly, savoring the hot warmth that spread across his tongue. He swallowed before continuing, "Like, about our parents and stuff."

"Favorite toy?" Lucy asked the question just as he finished and Emmet was quick to respond.

"I had one of those Etch-A-Sketch things. I was constantly drawing, even if I wasn't the best drawer," Emmet trailed off as he plopped more of the pie in his mouth.

"I had a teddy bear. A black one with a red checkered bow tie around his neck. I was given him when I was five and I never let him go until I left home," Lucy opened her eyes and she glanced down at Emmet.

"Did he have a name?"

"Snowy."

"Snowy?" Emmet raised an eyebrow and looked up at her, meeting her amused expression as she grinned.

"My childhood friend had a polar bear once called Snowy and I may have copied…"

"Uh.. what about your parents?"

Lucy was silent as she thought about her parents and she breathed a soft sight, "They're alive, somewhere. When I was seventeen I started to really tap into my Master Builder training and they didn't like it. They were all for the instructions and I wasn't. We… we had a falling out and I left in the middle of the night one night. I found Vitruvius and he helped train me."

"No, that's not what I wanted to know. What were they _like_," Emmet looked up at as he stuck another forkful of pie in his mouth.

"It's not healthy to eat laying down, you know…" Lucy trailed off and Emmet shrugged, still waiting to hear her answer. She breathed a sigh before continuing, "Mum was beautiful. She always had dark hair with the tips different colours. She loved art; graffiti art, still portraits, abstract, anything artistic at all and she loved it. Dad was a business man; he left at eight in the morning and came home around six every day. But he was funny, always joking and laughing, always taking me places on the weekends and helping with school."

Emmet watched as Lucy zoned everything around her out, a small, fond smile playing across her face as she talked. Suddenly, she stopped and faced him, an almost sad light shining in her eyes, "What about you?"

Emmet swallowed his latest mouthful thickly before he spoke up, "I was adopted when I was a baby."

Lucy didn't respond right away and he took his chance to continue, "I don't know who my real parents are or why they gave me up or if they're even still _alive._ But my foster parents were amazing. Mum – or Doris – had the brightest eyes and smiles and she loved to cook, she taught me everything she knew. She always held me tight when I was upset and she always made sure I was warm in winter and cool in summer. Dad – or Barry – was your typical _Dad_; always pulling those Dad jokes whenever I said something mildly stupid. He took me to sports games and he taught me how to be a construction worker; helped me get into the trade, really. He was an inspiring man."

"What do you mean when you say _was_ an inspiring man?" Lucy whispered her question, dreading the answer.

"They," Emmet swallowed thickly, the pie momentarily forgotten on his chest, "they died a year before TAKOS Tuesday."

"Oh, Babe, I'm so sorry," Lucy straightened up and pulled Emmet into a hug, not caring if she knocked the plate and the pie onto the ground in the process.

"It's fine, Lucy, it really is. I know that they're still watching over me and I know that they would be so proud of what I've done. I don't doubt that for a second."

Lucy buried her head into Emmet's hair as she held him against her chest.

"But I still want to know who my real parents are."

Lucy shifted so she could stare forward and she gave a soft smile, "We'll figure it out. I promise, okay? You and me, we'll find out who they are."

Emmet smiled as he looked up at her, capturing her lips in a quick and soft kiss, "Okay. And we'll find yours too, so you can become close again."

Lucy gave him a small, hopeful smile before she kissed him once more.

**A/N:** I'm thinking – and I have been for a while – of writing origin stories for the characters once I'm done with _'Road To Recovery'_… I don't know, maybe I'll just do a Father!Business one… we'll see. WEE HIT 400 REVIEWS! Thank you all so much; I love you and am so grateful for every read/follow/favorite/review these stories get!

Anyway, a huge thank you to the following for reviewing last chapter;

**\- The Wild West Pyro **(Haha, that's good! Unless you don't ship them, then that's fine!) :)

**\- A Nonny Mouse Fangirl **(Lucy knocked the pie to the ground….)

**\- edger230 **(Of course I wanna help! *grabs materials and joins in*)

**\- LivelyFuture **(Omg, yes, write that! That sounds wonderful!)

**\- ArmoredSoul **(I love the pairing too!) :D

**\- BritishWaffleSyrup **(Erm, what was your prompt? I stated 2 (3?) chapters ago that I lost my request list… sorry about that!) :(

**\- Rcdapikachu **(I can definitely do a Benny and Cody one. What does Cody look like? And would you like it humanized or not?)

**\- wafflestheninja **(You need a spoiler alert sticker on your forehead :P )

**\- AnimeKitten47 **(Maybe because you only like Emmetstyle? I don't know…)

**Request:** Emmet tries to take over the world as a prank

**Characters:** Everyone!

**Pairing:** Whichever ones you want

**Genre:** Humor, Friendship

**Rating:** K+

* * *

"Good Cop, I need your help with something…" Emmet let the sentence hang in the air as the officer looked up from a stacked pile of paperwork to raise an eyebrow.

"Of course! What can I help you with?" Good wasn't normally one to drop his work all at once, but a small part of him felt he owed it to Emmet to help him out. Especially since he was, at first, the only one to believe he had truly changed.

"I want to take over the world."

Good all but froze in his spot, mouth opening and closing as he tried to piece together a decent response. The Special was staring at him in a mixture of confusion and hope, almost as though the his response to the request had been unexpected.

"Oh!" Emmet's eyes widened drastically as he realized just how it had sounded and he gave a nervous smile, "I didn't mean actually take over the world. Just as a prank, you know?'

Good sighed in relief and smiled warmly, "Well, why not? Besides, it'll give us a chance to really scare Business and the others."

Emmet grinned and pulled out one of the seats from in front of Good's desk, sitting down and leaning forward in anticipation, "I just need you to be my helper."

Good nodded, pushing back the slight sounds of protest Bad made in the back of his mind, "Fine. You have a plan though, right?"

Emmet grinned suddenly and Good Cop, for the first time since meeting the special, was glad he wasn't actually taking over the world.

* * *

Business hummed as he fell into the chair behind his desk. He leaned back, pulling the already on laptop towards him, hands skimming across the keyboard as he entered his password. He could hear various, important figures through his earpiece and he half listened, just in case something that needed his attention came up.

As he opened his emails and began reading through the numerous emails he had received overnight, he became aware of the heavy silence on the other side of his earpiece. He frowned and gently tapped it, waiting for the usual bustling voice of his assistant to reappear. But it didn't and Business' frown deepened as he thought over various reasons as to why she was silent.

_Maybe something had come up and she needed to attend to it immediately. _

Despite knowing that she always excused herself, Business shrugged a shoulder and continued rifling through the emails. He didn't look up until his office door was thrown open.

Business looked up, startled, before smiling warmly at both Good Cop and Emmet who stood in the doorway, the Special grinning as Good Cop twirled the rope in his hands. He glanced quickly at the rope, smile fading slightly as he glanced warily at the two in the door way.

"Guys?" his tone was unsure as he got to his feet, both Emmet and Good Cop advancing towards him with the same, eerily happy smiles on their faces.

Business didn't have the time to run before Good Cop launched at him, roughly pushing him to the ground – not hard enough to seriously hurt him, but hard enough to keep up the pretence – and tied the rope around his figure tightly.

"Is he tied up?" Emmet titled his head slightly from where he stood, smirking down at the President before him.

"He sure is! Let's take him down to the broadcasting room and broadcast our message to the world," Good hauled Business to his feet and the President sent a pleading look to the Special.

"Emmet, just listen, okay? Whatever you're doing, whatever is going through your mind, we can work it out, okay? Just-"

"Quiet!" Emmet yelled the word and the room fell quiet, Business gaping as Good pushed him out through the office hall and down the hallway to the broadcasting room.

* * *

Lucy huffed as she fell into the bottom of the double decker couch, angrily chucking her phone against the seat. She had called Emmet for possibly the tenth time in a row, only to be answered by his cheerful voice mail message. She didn't leave a message; she never did.

She flicked on the TV, leaning back and all but glaring at the TV as she tapped out an unknown rhythm against the arm rest of the couch with the remote, watching as a particularly bad – not as bad as 'Where Are My Pants' – TV show flashed across the screen, the live audience's laughs almost deafening as she listened.

Suddenly, the show vanished and in its place was Emmet, standing with a strange smile on his face as he gave a small wave.

"_People of Bricksburg, hello."_

Lucy frowned and leaned forward, dropping the remote as she focused solely on the image of her boyfriend on TV.

"_Today, a friend and I have accomplished something. Today, we kidnapped the President."_

Lucy felt her eyes go wide and her heart stop momentarily as Good appeared on screen, smiling bitterly as he pushed a tied up Business to the ground.

"_Emmet, listen we can-" Business was trying to reason, but Good Cop flicked the back of his head. _

"_Silence! As I was saying, my friend and I are taking over the world. You see, I realized that he was right; we need rules, we need regulations," Emmet laughed, looking down at a shocked Business before he looked at the camera again, "so we're bringing them back. And anyone who argues, well, you can join the President."_

Lucy never found out where the President was; the screen ceased to a black void before the original TV show re appeared, further along in the plot from where it had been cut off.

Her phone buzzed from beside her.

Almost numbly she reached out and grabbed it, answering it with an almost silent 'hello'.

"Lucy, Emmet was just on TV," it was Benny, his voice high and fast as he spoke, "and he's taking over the world. Do we stop him? Of course we do but ho-"

"Benny, listen," Lucy swallowed thickly, pushing herself to her feet and running out of the apartment, leaving the TV on as she slammed the front door behind her. She ignored the worried expressions the citizens sent her way as she pushed past them, determined to reach Octan Tower as soon as possible, "gather the Master Builders . You get them to Octan Tower and you get the President back. Don't worry about me; I'll talk to Emmet and get him to listen, okay?"

She presumed Benny had nodded when he didn't answer and she hung up, quickening her pace as she ducked into an alley. She grabbed multiple pieces, throwing them together in quick succession until she had a decent, yet simple motorcycle that would get her to Octan quickly.

She didn't bother with a helmet.

* * *

Business shifted uncomfortably on the chair as he watched Emmet and Good talk quietly amongst themselves. They glanced at him every so often, Good occasionally giving a cheery wave that the President never wanted to receive again.

Emmet's phone rang and the Special answered it quickly, excusing himself and taking a few steps away from the two of them. Good smiled at Business and the President glared back.

"Batman, hello!" Emmet grinned and Business became aware of how much he hoped the Master Builders were on his side.

"You don't understand Batman, Bricksburg needs rules in order to function correctly."

"_It has rules kid! But the ones you want to bring back are ridiculous!"_

Emmet laughed, his smile dropping suddenly, "I want my old life back! I want everything to be easy and simple and normal! I can't handle the amount of change that has happened! Not all at once at least!"

Good stepped behind Business, frowning as he let down his guard momentarily. He watched Emmet, meeting the Special's eyes before he glanced away. A part of him wondered if an unknown truth had escaped into Emmet's words. He made a mental note to sit down and talk with him about things later.

Emmet hung up abruptly and dropped his phone on Business' desk before turning to face the two of them once more, "No one is foiling our plans."

Good put his façade back on and stepped back into Business' line of sight.

* * *

Lucy barely gave the motorcycle time to completely stop before she jumped from the seat, running as fast as her legs would carry her. She pushed through the front doors, frowning at the unusual, empty bottom floor that doubled as a waiting room. She didn't stop for long, running towards the elevator and pressing the 'up' button forcibly.

She only just heard Benny's far away shriek of spaceship as the elevator doors slid close and she knew they were on their way.

She tapped a foot impatiently as the elevator slid up, her thoughts wild as her heart hammered nervously in her chest. The doors slid open and she vaulted out of them and towards Business' door, pushing it open with a frown.

"Emmet!"

"Lucy!" Emmet spun around, smiling wildly at her as she advance, "I was waiti-"

Lucy brought her hand up and slapped him across the cheek. He frowned at her and she glared, "How could you? Why would you try and take over the world?"

Emmet rubbed his cheek and pouted before responding, "Because I'm doing what's right."

Lucy scoffed, "You're taking away everyone's freedom! That's not right Emmet! We spent ages battling for this; Vitruvius died for this, and you're just going to throw it all away!"

She heard the door open once more behind her and suddenly Batman was lunging at Emmet, the two rolling across the ground as Batman raised his hand.

"Batman, enough!" UniKitty shouted and Batman huffed, leaning up so he still had Emmet pinned below him.

"Why Emmet? We're your friends?" Benny's tone was sad as he floated gently next to Lucy, staring with sad eyes at the Special.

"I think we all need to calm down," Good Cop stepped into view and Bad Cop finally took over, breathing a relieve sigh as they he had been struggling to get out for awhile.

"The two of them have been pranking you the whole time. I only just managed to take over. They're not actually taking over the world. "

Good Cop instantly switched in, frowning at himself and meeting Emmet's disappointed glare.

Lucy raised an eyebrow as Benny grinned from beside her. UniKitty seemed angry, slowly changing red as she stared in disbelief at the Special and Cop before her. Batman didn't move.

Emmet gave a shaky laugh as the thought that maybe it wasn't worth it to go so far entered his mind. He grinned slightly as he looked from Batman to Lucy before muttering, "Surprise?"

Lucy's glare intensified and UniKitty gave an angry shout of frustration.

* * *

**A/N:** I'm not too pleased with the end, but I still had fun writing it :D

I apologize for being away for so long. I'll be honest with you all; I'm struggling a lot with home and family stuff between me and my parents. That, and I've had exams and assessment due dates galore. I've been so stressed recently and Mum and Dad aren't making it any easier and I just really need to take Fanfiction slow for a little while. I'll post at least one short story a week until I have time to post more. I'm so, so sorry, I truly, truly am but life is so hectic and confusing and hard right now that I'm struggling emotionally. I love you all; you're all amazing people and I love hearing from you (various people have sent me PMs and I will get back to them!) and I feel like a couple of you are real friends. I mean, it's not every day I got to Tahiti on the back of a dragon or have a bunch of reviewers create a crusade to stop the baddie. So thank you all so much for making everything seem worth it lately. You will never know how much I appreciate having you all read/review/follow/favorite this story.

Best Wishes,

\- Taylor

**Request:** Benny holds his son Cody for the first time.

**Requested By:** Rdcapikachu

**Characters:** Benny

**Pairings:** Whichever pairings you want.

**Genre:** Family

**Rating:** K

**Note:** Humanized!

* * *

He had never wanted children; he visited space far too frequently to care for a child. Everyone he had ever been friends with – Lucy, UniKitty, MetalBeard, Batman, Bad and Good Cop, Business and the other astronauts – had all told him he'd be a bad parent, that he was far too active and excited to slow his lifestyle down for the baby.

But then Emmet and Lucy had had their son and daughter and Benny, for the first time, had wanted a child. Emmet was the only one who thought the idea was a good one, profusely telling Benny that he'd be the best Dad and would actually bring a sense of excitement into the child's life.

So, when Benny watched as Emmet and Lucy's youngest child – their son- turned four, he realized he wanted his own child.

It wasn't a fast process; there was paperwork to fill out and he needed to move from the little apartment on the outskirts of town if he wanted room for the kid. So he found a little, two story, three bedroom house a little ways out of town where he was able to see the Space Centre through the trees of his backyard. He'd be able to go to work quickly when he started once more.

It was choosing the child from the adoption agency that proved hardest; he had walked through rooms filled with teenagers, rooms filled with children and rooms filled with toddlers. He felt bad, watching as every pair of eyes looked at him with hope and it broke his heart knowing he couldn't provide each and every one with a loving home.

No one deserved to go without a home.

The place they were kept was nice though, so they weren't totally without; each child shared a room with two others of the same gender, the walls painted in bright colours, desk and wardrobes full of clothes provided for each child. There were three living rooms, kids of different age ranges assigned a living room. And the dining room was like a mess hall and, if Benny's nose was right, the food was as good as it could come.

He hadn't found the child until he was ready to give up. He felt bad for turning down the little ones, and he felt just as bad for the older, teenagers who looked like they were ready to give up on finding a family.

But it was the little, ebony haired boy with bright green eyes that had attracted his attention. The little boy had reminded him of his mother, both having the same, bright green eyes that almost shone in the darkness of the room.

So he had come home later that evening with the baby – he had named him Cody – and instantly taken him to his room, sitting in the rocking chair as he cooed at the baby in his arms.

And he knew, almost instantly, that he was irrevocably in love with the little boy.

It was almost like a flash that Cody grew up, wearing the space themed shirts and jeans that Benny bought him, developing his own love – albeit, not as much as his adopted father's – for spaceships and hoped one day to be just like his Father and travel to space.

He went to the same school as Emmet and Lucy's kids had gone too and he excelled at math and sports and Benny, even if he didn't say it often, was proud.

Everyone – save for Emmet – had learned that they were wrong; Benny was an amazing father and he knew how to care for a child.

When Cody was seven Benny started work again, working a desk job and communicating to those in space. When Cody was fifteen and could be trusted home alone Benny went back into space and Cody waited, almost impatiently, for his Father to return home safe and sound.

They always did things together on weekends, whether it was playing a sport in the backyard or going to the movies or catching up with the others, it didn't matter. They were almost inseparable, and that's what really mattered, even if Cody could get too excited at school and cause trouble for his peers and sometimes broke things around the house.

When Cody got married Benny pretended he wasn't crying. He couldn't be more proud of his son, holding hands with his beautiful bride as he stood tall and proud, shooting Benny a happy smile from his position.

And when Benny held his granddaughter in his arms, the little girl having green eyes and the brown hair of her mother, he was reminded instantly of the first time he held Cody and the unconditional love he had felt then swept through his heart once more.

Sure, he was an astronaut and astronauts had to be tough for the trials of space. But he was also only human and when it came to his family, he was a mushy mess of love.

"Emmet, sit down, she'll be fine!" Benny sent an annoyed glare at the construction worker who was pacing through his living room, eyes wide as he waited for his girlfriend to call.

"Benny, its past eight," he stopped in the middle of the room, staring at Benny as though the astronaut could fix his problems.

Benny only shrugged a shoulder, "Dude, she probably just caught up or maybe she's working overtime or something."

Lucy had, after Bricksburg and surrounding realms were rebuilt, opened a specialized graffiti workshop for those interested in the art and didn't want to get in trouble by authorities. She worked most afternoons after lunch and worked up until six that night, painting and helping not as experienced artists develop their skill. Normally she finished at six and was home within a half hour, just in time for Emmet to dish up dinner.

But it was past eight and she wasn't back yet, nor was she answering her phone and Emmet, in a slight panic, had called Benny.

Emmet let himself drop into the couch next to Benny, the astronaut floating slightly in his spot, absently flicking through various channels.

"What if she's injured? Or in the hospital? Benny, what if-"

"Emmet, calm down."

Emmet sighed impatiently, trying to focus on the Sci-FI channel Benny had opted for but found himself glancing at the clock every so often.

He tried calling her again, only to receive her voice mail and he groaned, ignoring the annoyed glare Benny sent his way.

"She's fine man."

"No, no she's not. She probably hurt and I'm sitting here watching Star Wars-"

"Star Trek!"

"Oh, whatever," Emmet huffed and glared at the TV.

It wasn't until the door opened and Lucy - looking tired but altogether safe - stepped through, smiling gently at the two males.

"Sorry I'm late but-"

"Lucy!" Emmet threw himself at Lucy and wrapped his arms around her, burying his head in her shoulder and refusing to let her go.

"Whoa, Emmet, are you okay?" she sent Benny a questioning look and he smiled before muttering something about leaving, pushing passed her to close the door behind him.

"I thought you were hurt," Emmet mumbled into the shoulder of her hood and she sighed, shuffling them towards the couch and falling into it.

"Why?"

"You're late. You normally get home two hours ago," Emmet leaned back and kissed her gently, blushing when she raised an eyebrow at him.

"I was working overtime. I'm fine Emmet, I promise," she smirked and he nodded, more to himself then anything before he snuggled into her side once more, yawning loudly.

"Benny ate your dinner."

"Of course he did," Lucy kissed the top of his head before pushing herself from the couch, ignoring his whine of protest.

"I'm going for a shower and then I'll eat something while we watch TV, okay?"

Emmet nodded and watched her go with a small sigh. He flopped against the couch, lying across it with a relieved smile.

Lucy was home and she was, without a doubt, safe.

**A/N:** Have a short yet sweet one shot. So far_ 'Its The Little Things That Count'_ is winning the pole. Don't forget to vote! Details are on my page.

I'd love to do review responses but Mum wants my laptop and because there are so many of you at once I don't have the time. I know I've been slack lately and I apologize a thousand times for that.

Note: Humanized because I wouldn't have a clue how a Lego deals with pregnancy...

~•~•~

"Mel! I heard Frank wants to see you out by the stadium; something about structural design," Emmet brought a hand up to block out the rays of the sun, smiling tiredly up at Mel as she acknowledged him and ran off towards the Stadium

He breathed a sigh as Gail came up behind him and handed him an untouched water bottle, "Drink something before you faint."

Emmet chuckled and lifted the bottle up, swallowing a mouthful of the cold liquid before capping the bottle once more. He leaned against of the constructed walls of the site and Gail joined him, the two watching as a few workers carried various equipment past them.

"Did you get Mel?"

Emmet nodded, "Yeah. She's on her way to Frank now."

Gail nodded and took another mouthful.

Emmet jumped when his phone rang loudly from the lockers on site and he quickly accessed his, pulling out his phone just as the call ended. He smiled in a mix of confusion and joy when he saw Lucy's contact picture on the screen and re dialed her.

"Emmet?" there was a slight excitement to her voice and Emmet felt even more confused.

"Lucy, I missed your call. What's up?" he turned to lean against his locker, Gail watching him with a small smirk before she got called for another job.

"I'm pregnant."

Emmet felt everything slow down and he stood up straighter, smile leaving his face as he swallowed. There was a heavy silence for a few minutes as he gathered his thoughts and he finally managed to choke out a small, "What?"

He could sense Lucy rolling her eyes good naturedly on the other side before answering, "We're going to have a baby Babe. You're going to be a Dad!"

Emmet felt his grin return and a warmth spread throughout his chest, "Are you serious?" He knew he had shouted the words when Harry sent him a questioning look from his own locker.

"Yes!" there was a happy quality to Lucy's voice and Emmet's grin widened.

"That's- Lucy, that's amazing! Our house isn't big enough though, we'll have to get a bigger one. And then there's the problem of finding a crib and other furniture in time too-"

"Emmet, calm down, we've got roughly eight to nine months to sort it out," Lucy laughed and Emmet silenced himself, grinning widely at Harry who, by now, had caught on. The older construction worker sent him a smile and a thumbs up before he left to, no doubt, spread the happy news.

And Emmet didn't care; he wanted the whole world to know he was going to soon have a son or daughter.

~•~•~

"We're having a girl," Lucy grinned up at Emmet, watching as his own grin crossed his face. He grabbed her hand as she sat up, bringing her shirt down and over the growing bump.

"We're having a baby girl," Emmet didn't quite believe he was going to be a father as he breathed the words, even when he felt the bump press against his stomach lightly when Lucy leaned up to kiss him.

"Everything in your pregnancy is running smoothly," the specialist smiled kindly at them, "You're free to go."

Lucy thanked her profusely before grabbing Emmet's hand and tugged him out of the room, still gripping his hand tightly as they walked down the hospital rooms, grinning giddily at each other as various names burst throughout their minds.

~•~•~

"What about Stephanie?" Lucy raised an eyebrow as her finger paused at the name on the screen and she looked at Emmet, the man shaking his head.

She sighed and continued browsing through the website, "Felicity? Or Sophie?"

"I don't like them," Emmet muttered half heatedly and Lucy frowned once more.

"Okay. What about Zoe or Kiera? Maybe Erin," she trailed off and Emmet muttered a small no in answer to each name.

"Oh!" Lucy gasped and grinned suddenly, looking up to meet Emmet's startled look, "Emma!"

Emmet faltered before forcing a small smile, "I like it."

Lucy's grin widened, "We can say she's partly named after you."

She watched, worry seeping into the corners of her mind as Emmet's smile faltered once more, the construction worker seemingly swallowing before he gave a small nod, previously happy smile once again on his face.

"I like it."

And that was enough to wash away Lucy's worry.

~•~•~

"I think this room should be hers; its the closest of the two spare bedrooms to ours," Lucy entered the spare bedroom that was apart of the spacious, one story, three bedroom house they had bought only months earlier in preparation for the child. They had been saving up for years for a nice house to start a family and it had finally paid off.

Lucy glanced at her husband and Emmet looked startled, almost as though he had been pulled from a different universe, "Sorry, I didn't hear you?"

She sighed and took a small step forward, hand resting on her stomach as the other grabbed his chin, "Oh Emmet. What's wrong?"

Emmet forced a smile and kissed her quickly and gently, "Nothing, I promise. I'm just tired is all."

She sighed and kissed his cheek before stepping back, grabbing both of his hands and placing them on her belly, "She'll come soon; in about a month."

Emmet swallowed thickly and nodded, glancing around the room and looking anywhere other then at his wife and unborn child, "Is this going to be her room?"

Lucy let his hands go and turned his back on him with a small nod, "Yes."

He nodded, more to himself then anything, "I'll get the pink paint and start working."

And he did, Lucy watching from the door way as he started applying the pale pink paint to the walls, leaving the ceiling blank for when Benny dropped by to design and paint a picture of the night sky for them.

A small, nagging worry formed in the back of Lucy's mind as she watched Emmet paint, one hand resting on her belly. And this time, it didn't go away when he smiled at her.

~•~•~

Business whistled softly as he pushed the door to the coffee shop open, smiling warmly as he held the door open for a citizen that happened to be leaving.

He ordered his usual coffee and baked good, turning to go when Emmet called his name.

He turned around, smiling widely at the construction worker, "Emmet, hello. How are you?" he took the seat across from Emmet and took his baked good out of the paper carry bag.

Emmet looked tired as he sipped his coffee and the President frowned as Emmet replied, "Yeah, good. Benny finally got around to painting the ceiling so we just have to get the furniture in now."

"You look tired; is Lucy hard to handle with the fluctuating emotions?"

Emmet chuckled softly and shook his head, "No. I'm just," he paused and lowered his gaze, "I'm just worried I won't be the best Father."

Business nodded and swallowed his mouthful of food, "I understand."

Emmet looked startled, "You do?"

"Of course! When your Mother was pregnant with you I was a nervous wreck; I wanted everything to be perfect for when you arrived."

Emmet smiled and sipped his drink while Business continued, "I remember she sat me down one night and told me that I was acting as if I were the pregnant one."

Business chuckled more to himself and swallowed a mouthful of coffee, "But when I held you that first time I knew I'd be fine."

"You gave me up three weeks later," Emmet deadpanned as a fear entered his eyes.

Business choked slightly, "Yes, but that doesn't mean you're going to!" he ran a hand through his hair and leaned back in his chair, "Emmet, you'll be a better father then I was; you never tried to take over the world."

Emmet smiled softly before Business spoke up again, "Although, you did destroy a large portion of the street... and you did lead us to Cloud Cuckoo Land."

"Not helping," Emmet glared from across the table and Business swallowed.

"But that's not the point; the point is you'll be a fine Dad to your child " Business amended. "I mean, I highly doubt you'll lead a bunch of armed men to the destruction of your child."

Judging by the angered glare Emmet sent his way, his words of wisdom hadn't really helped out, "I apologize. What you do need to know is that I trust you and Lucy to be amazing and inspirational parents to the baby, okay?"

Emmet nodded and pushed himself from his chair, "Thanks man, I mean it. I have to move the furniture into Emma's room, I'll see you later."

"See you around son," Business gave him a small wave as he left.

And Emmet felt slightly relieved as he let the coffee shop door close behind him.

~•~•~

Emmet grinned as he walked into the lounge room. Lucy was curled up on the couch, a bowl of vanilla ice cream with Milo on top in her lap, a cop show flashing across the TV.

"I'm home!" he grinned and leaned down to kiss her unexpectedly, tasting the vanilla and Milo on her lips and he leaned away once more, grin still in place as he carried the first of many boxes that would latter be the crib for their child towards the bedroom.

"What's the occasion?" Lucy smiled as she watched him turn a corner into the room.

He shouted back his answer, "We're going to be parents in about two weeks! Why wouldn't I be happy?"

Lucy laughed freely at his answer, her heart and previous worry for her husband evaporating almost immediately.

Emmet sung under his breath as he built the stand for the crib, screwing various parts together as he listened with half interest to the cop show on TV.

"Emmet?!"

"What's wrong?" Emmet asked the question almost lazily, half expecting Lucy to call for a bottle of water or more ice cream.

"She's coming!"

Emmet froze momentarily before he bolted out of the room, widening his eyes as he met Lucy's nervously excited look and he squeaked out a small, "What? But she's late!"

Lucy glared, "Who cares if she's late! Emma is coming and she's coming now."

And Emmet felt like he was going to faint.

~•~•~

She was tiny in his arms. She had the same, darker skin tone and bright green eyes of her mother but tuffs of short, Emmet brown hair sat atop her head. She was wrapped in a pink blanket and was clean of any and all gunk.

Lucy watched the two from the hospital bed, smiling as he lifted the baby towards his face, "She's beautiful."

"Like her mother," Emmet mumbled, shooting a tiny smile Lucy's way before he glanced back down at Emma, his grin widening when Emma reached out with a tiny hand for his face, "Who's a little cutie that has their father wrapped around their finger?"

Lucy laughed softly and leaned back in the bed, eyes watching and the soft smile refused to leave as her husband and daughter - the two most important people in the world to her - interacted next to her bed.

And she knew that, no matter how hard things became for them in the future, Emmet was going to be an excellent Dad.

* * *

In reality, Emmet had adjusted to strange things happening to him and his friends. He was use to receiving calls from Benny because the astronaut had gotten caught underneath a particularly heavy part of his spaceship, or even calls from Good Cop Bad Cop because the two of them needed help in expressing their emotions to someone and had no clue how to do so.

The one person who Emmet was most used to getting distress calls was, surprisingly, Business. Whether that was because Emmet was the first and - at one point - only person who had believed in his change of heart, the construction worker wasn't sure, but he knew Business trusted him above everyone else.

And that was why, when Emmet received the call at seven thirty at night, he wasn't entirely surprised.

He had been watching TV, both he and Lucy having just finished dinner for the night and sat down to watch the news and any sitcoms - that involved people wearing pants ninety-nine percent of the time - they had found themselves attached to.

The shrill, almost irritating of Emmet's ringtone sounded, drawing the construction worker instantly out of his haze as he listened to the news, Lucy sending him a small, confused look as he reached for his phone. Only rarely did they get calls of a night time.

Emmet raised an eyebrow as Business' name lit up the screen below a picture of a briefcase and the construction worker, both confused and worried at once, answered, "Hello?"

"Emmet, uh, hi," Business swallowed from the other end before speaking once more, "I need your help."

"With what?" there was a tone of caution to his words, Emmet pushing himself to his feet and walking away from the TV, Lucy switching it off and watching with a frown as he made way for the front door.

"Well, you see… I can't move," the President was oddly calm, Emmet almost choking in both shock and concern.

"Okay just… just wait; I'll be right there," and, ignoring Business' sudden panic for him to not hang up and listen to him for a second longer, Emmet hung up, turning to Lucy with a serious expression.

"Start a conference call with the others and get them to Business'."

Lucy didn't ask but leaned forward and grabbed her phone, dialling the numbers as she followed Emmet out of their apartment and down the towards their car.

* * *

Emmet wasn't the first to arrive at Business' house; the President lived on the opposite side of town to the construction worker. Benny, however, in his need to live as close to the space headquarters in Bricksburg, had bought a small, two story house close to where Business himself lived.

The astronaut looked agitated as he floated by the large gate, waving at Emmet and Lucy as they hurried over.

"What's wrong with Business?" Benny's usually cheerful voice was void of any joy and his downcast expression darkened when Emmet shrugged hopelessly.

"I don't know; he just said he couldn't move," Emmet said, glancing behind him as a police cruiser pulled up.

"What's happened?" Good Cop jumped out, running over after kicking the door closed.

"Business can't move," Lucy replied, saving Emmet from having to explain it once more.

The four figures decided to not wait for the others - they were all coming from various realms and would take their time in getting there - and headed inside, Good Cop leading the way through the corridors of the large house.

It was a nice house, large and decorated nicely. While it wasn't quite what he was use to, Emmet knew he could easily adapt to living within it.

They reached Business' room within the minute, Good Cop not bothering with knocking as he threw the door open.

Emmet pushed his way through first, eyes scouring the room before laying on the President, every fibre of his being slackening in shock.

"You have to be kidding me," Lucy growled, glaring at the embarrassed President, "we came all the way here, to help you, because you have a _cat _curled up on your _chest_?!"

Emmet stared from where he was standing, watching as the brown and white kitten, marked with black lines and a little M on it's forehead, curled further into Business' neck, the President glancing at it before returning his apologetic expression back to the others.

"Well, uh, yes," he stammered, refusing to meet Lucy's furious glare, "but Emmet didn't listen!"

"What do you mean I didn't listen? You said you had a problem, and here I came," Emmet trailed off, obviously confused and Business held a finger up at him.

"Uh, but you see, I never finished before you so rudely hung up me. I was going to say not to bring everyone and that it wasn't a big threat."

"It's not even a small threat," Lucy mumbled.

"Sir, if you don't mind, why did you call Emmet in the first place?" Bad asked and Business blinked before replying.

"I need him to move the cat; I can't move it properly from where I am, not with the way my back is in my old age, you know?" Business smiled a little at his own joke, his smile fading when he realized no one else was.

"You called me to pick a cat up off of your neck?" Emmet asked in disbelief, groaning when Business gave a small nod.

"Where's the prob-" UniKitty burst into the room from almost no where, pausing when she caught sight of the little kitten. "It's adorable!"

"At least someone's happy," Lucy mumbled, turning to leave, "Next time, call UniKitty if you want help with a kitten. Come on Babe, let's go." she grabbed Emmet's hand in hers before dragging him towards the exit, GCBC following.

Benny stayed behind and floated towards the bed, frowning slightly, "What's it's name?"

Business smiled and answered, "Vitruvius."

And from out in the hallway, they heard Emmet give a half choked sound of surprise before bursting into the room again, grinning at the sight of little kitten Vitruvius curling into Business' neck.

* * *

**A/N:** I know this is, technically, on hold, but I'm having serious writers' block on my other stories where nothing is turning out how I want it, so I took a break and focused on school for little and worked on this over the span of a week - I know it's not much for a week of work, but a math assignment takes it's time.

A huge thank you to everyone who reviewed! I've got a huge couple of chapters coming up that may, or may not, be a while away, depending on how my other stories go. They're all connected and include heaps of Finn!


	44. Finn the Lego Part 1

**Prompt: **Lego Finn and the portal is blocked

**Characters: **Finn, majority of the gang

**Pairings: **Emmetstyle

**Genre: **Friendship, Humor, Adventure

**Rating: **K

**Note: **Part 1 of 2.

**Note 2: **See if you can spot the reference to a certain cartoon ;)

* * *

Finn had never imagined being a LEGO. He had never wanted to be a LEGO. He was perfectly fine being a nine year old human boy who walked his dog Jake of an afternoon after doing his homework, coming home in time for dinner and a shower, followed by an hour or so of TV or playing with his LEGOs before he climbed into his bed and fell asleep for the night.

And then _it_ had happened.

He didn't really know what _it_ was.

He had been playing with the LEGO set down in the basement, his four year old little sister Valerie having just been carried off for her earlier bedtime, her usual squeals of protests being cut off by their mother's slightly tired demands for her to quieten down. He had bent down and wrapped a hand around the Infinite Abyss of Nothingness, determined to put it back up on it's shelf where his Dad had designated it be placed for when they weren't playing with it.

Almost immediately he had been overtaken by a sharp pain in his temple, his free hand instantly flying up to cover his temple, his eyes squeezing shut as he grunted slightly. He felt dizzy and he was vaguely aware of the world spinning harshly around him. He opened his eyes, the ground rushing up to meet him, the abyss falling from his hand and rolling away into the far corners of the room.

And everything turned black.

* * *

A blinding light pierced through his eyelids and Finn squeezed them tighter, a groan escaping from between his lips. He could feel solid bumps poke up from the ground below him and he rolled onto his side, surprised when he completely rolled until he was flat on his stomach.

Confused, he opened his eyes, staring in shock at the very grey, very LEGOish floor below him.

And he screamed.

"Woah, calm down," someone called out and there a hand - a yellow and clawed hand - wrapped around his wrist, helping him up and onto his feet. They let go and he glanced around, his chest feeling suddenly tight as he realized that he wasn't in the basement room anymore.

He was in Bricksburg. _The_ Bricksburg.

He felt sick.

He groaned again, raising his own clawed hand to his head as he looked around, his eyes widening once more when he realized he was face to face with a very familiar construction worker who so happened to be his favorite figurine to play with.

"Emmet?"

The construction worker seemed momentarily surprised before he chuckled, "I'd ask you how you know my name, but everyone does these days. What's your name?"

Finn stared in shock, his mouth opening and closing, his brow furrowed in confusion. Emmet's smile slowly faded and he cleared his throat.

"Are you, uh, okay? You know… you look kinda familiar… what's your name? Maybe I know you?" Emmet seemed almost hopeful, almost concerned for him.

"Finn," Finn found his voice and his heart leapt in a strange sense of joy when Emmet's face slackened into an expression of realization.

"It's - it's you. The fleshy creature from," Emmet trailed off, grabbing Finn's wrist and tugging him down the streets of Bricksburg suddenly, "We need to get you out of here. We need to get you home."

"How?" Finn knew he wasn't being very talkative, and a part of him was regretting that he wasn't actually talking to the figurine before him. He swallowed thickly before continuing, "I don't how to get home. I don't even know how I ended up here."

"Well you fell from the sky… at first we thought you were a super or a mutant or something, but now I know who you really are," Emmet mumbled, tugging him up the front stairs of his apartment and through the lobby until he reached the stairs. He ran up the stairs, glancing behind him to make sure Finn was still following before he burst into his apartment, "Lucy, we have a problem!"

"Who's destroying the world now Babe?" Lucy poked her head out of the kitchen, eyes resting on Finn with a confused look, "Are you Emmet's brother?"

Emmet frowned, "What? No! I don't have a brother. You know how I fell through the portal and I told you about the giant fleshy creature called Finn and how his Dad looked just like Business and he had a whole case full of Kragles?"

Lucy smiled almost sadly at the memory and nodded, "I remember."

Emmet pulled Finn, pushing him gently in front of him before gesturing wildly, "It's Finn."

"Oh," Lucy froze as she took Finn in, a part of her still hoping it was Emmet's long lost brother and not a stranger who happened to be from a very different world. He did look like Emmet; he had the same brown hair, even if was far more shaggier and wild, and they both had the same, generic face. Where Emmet wore a construction worker's uniform he wore a simple blue shirt and black jacket, dark jean pants covering his legs.

"What do we do?" Emmet looked almost hopeful that Lucy, the smartest most beautiful person he had come to know, would have an answer for him. His face fell, however, when she gave a hopeless shrug.

"I don't know Babe. Do you know how you got here Finn?" Her voice took on a gentler tone and Finn shrugged a shoulder.

"I don't know. I wanna go home," Finn felt like crying. He wanted to go home to his parents and Valerie, he wanted to walk Jake the dog and he wanted to watch cartoons before crawling into bed. He wanted to _play_ with the LEGOs, not actually _be_ one.

"I was just playing with the Infinite Abyss of Nothingness and then I woke up here."

"Maybe that's it," Emmet looked up suddenly and both Lucy and Finn turned to face him. "Maybe you just need to jump back into that."

"You do know how hard that's going to be, right?" Lucy raised an eyebrow and Emmet sent her a confused look.

"Why?"

"They boarded that whole area up after you decided to jump in and sacrifice yourself," her voice sounded suddenly thicker and she swallowed, shaking her head slightly before looking back at the two males before her, "How are you going to convince Bad Cop to let you pass. He didn't believe you when you told him the story about… Finn and his Dad."

"We have to make him believe," Finn spoke up, his eyes wide in desperation. Gosh, he wanted to go home so bad. "I need him to believe. It's the only chance I have!"

"He's right Lucy; we have to give it a go," Emmet looked just as desperate and Lucy breathed a sigh.

"What if he doesn't return to his normal self and the same thing happens to him as it did to you. There's no - thing - out there to put him back in our world if he stays… like us," Lucy struggled with the words, turning to face Finn with a confused smile, "What are you?"

"I'm a human," Finn answered, swallowing the thick lump in his throat.

"Right. See how there are so many flaws in this plan?" Lucy turned to face Emmet and the construction worker gave a small shrug.

"It's better then no plan, right?"

"I don't know Emmet…" Lucy bit her lip in thought before turning to Finn, "What do you want to do?"

"It's the only plan we have and I need to get home," Finn answered.

Lucy sighed, "Okay; let's go see Bad Cop and get this sorted then. I'll drive."

* * *

"Look, as much as I'd like to help you, I can't," Bad Cop slammed his work locker shut, ignoring the angry glares his two friends sent his way.

"You don't understand, I need to get home," Finn was pleading now, eyes blinking rapidly to hold back the tears that threatened to fall. He didn't want to cry in front of the figures.

"I know you need to get home, but the portal's mysteriously closed. There's nothing I can do," Bad cop adopted a strangely sympathetic tone as he spoke, giving the boy a rare, reassuring smile before he started towards the exit. He really just wanted to go home and have a hot shower.

"There has to be something you can do though!" Emmet shouted, jogging to catch up.

Bad Cop whirled around, glare intense as he stared at the construction worker, "You're the Special Emmet, not me, so work something out! Go talk to Business or something, he'll probably have a relic to help but I can't do anything for you!"

Emmet didn't respond, jaw set firmly in slight anger as he watched Bad Cop leave the building. He turned to face the two behind him, sighing sadly when Lucy placed a hand on Finn's upper arm, the boy trying desperately to not cry before them.

"We'll sort something out Finn," Emmet smiled softly, Finn returning it with a fake one of his own, "I promise."

* * *

**A|N:** I'll throw part 2 up tomorrow. I'm going to try and do daily updates - I'll most likely skip a day here and there because I forget, am sick or just busy. Requests aren't being taken at the moment - I have far too many as it is!

	45. Finn the Lego Part 2

**Prompts: ** Finn and the portal blocked

2\. Finn and Emmet have a conversation

**Characters: **Finn, Emmet, Lucy, Business, Bad Cop

**Pairing: **Emmestyle

**Genre: **Friendship, Hurt/Comfort

**Rating: **K+

**Note: **Part 2 of 3. I combined this plot and another together after realizing I kind of do the second one at the end of this anyway.

* * *

Business liked quiet days. Sure, he didn't get a whole lot of them due to his ever present - and rather stressful - job as the President, but that didn't mean he didn't get them. He always made sure he had one day off a month - be it a Saturday or a Sunday - and usually spent it at home, by his pool with a good mystery book and a taco or two. If it was winter, or just cold weather, it was spent inside by the fire.

It was one of those days and the sun was nothing more the an inky purple across the horizon, blending in with the ever increasing darkness of the night sky. The moon was high and bright, the stars scattered around it like twinkling fairylights reserved for only Christmas. It was too dark to read anymore and the book - about a rather eccentric detective and he's slightly more mature partner - lay closed on the polished table before him. A glass of cold lemonade sat in one hand, the other resting loosely by his side as he lounged in the chair, the pool rippling before him and making a relaxing noise he knew could lull him off to sleep if he wished.

Business smiled and closed his eyes, mentally thanking the gods' that allowed him to have a day for himself. There were times when dealing with the citizen's every wish got tiresome.

"Business!"

The President's smile fell instantly and he jerked up, glaring as Emmet and Lucy - followed by a younger boy who looked like he had been crying - entered his back yard, the back door slamming shut and vibrating slightly.

"We need a way to send Finn back."

Business quirked his eyebrow but didn't move, "Emmet, I'm afraid you'll have to explain yourself some more before I can understand just what a Finn is."

Emmet seemed agitated as he took the drink from Business, the President glaring as the Special tossed it to the side, the glass shattering harshly against the ground beside the pool, "Finn is a human, who just so happens to be stuck in our world."

"A _human_," Business deadpanned, sighing tiredly when Emmet nodded rapidly. "What's a human?"

"You know those fleshy creatures I saw when I fell through the Infinite Abyss of Nothingness?"

"Uh huh."

"They're humans," Emmet concluded, waving wildly at the boy behind him, "And that's Finn."

Business inspected the boy, Finn giving him a small smile he didn't return, "He doesn't look like a human. He looks pretty ordinary to me. Besides, just stick him in the Infinite Abyss of Nothingness and be done with it."

"We can't. It's closed."

Now that made Business stand up, the President's brow furrowing in confusion, "What do you mean by closed?"

"He means there's no way in or out of the portal; it's gone," Lucy snapped, glaring from where she was standing with a hand around Finn's upper arm almost protectively.

Business groaned and rubbed his face, appearing older than his years, "Just one day a month I'd like to go without something unbelievably crazy happening. Come on, then, let's go and investigate."

Emmet stood off to the side as Business passed, the Special shooting Finn a small, reassuring smile before he followed the President through his house, his girlfriend and Finn following close behind him.

* * *

"Well," Business kicked at the ground as he stared down from the window to the spot where the Infinite Abyss use to swirl, "It's definitely not there anymore."

"So I can't get home?" Finn spoke for the first time since meeting Business, a half suppressed sob leaving his throat. Lucy pulled him in for a gentle hug, looking hopeless as she glanced between both Business and Emmet.

"Not unless there's another way kid. Have you asked Bad Cop? He's the one that normally patrols the area after work each day," Business turned to Emmet, frowning when the Special nodded.

"He didn't want to help though," Emmet informed.

"Is there anyone out there Finn?" Business turned suddenly and Finn pulled away from Lucy.

"There's Mum and Dad. And Valerie, my sister, but she should be in bed by now," he mumbled, wiping at the tears that fell from his eyes. Crying as a LEGO figurine was definitely something he didn't understand.

"Well what if we drop something off here then? I mean, sure there's no swirling abyss but theres just black. Something has to happen," Business glanced back out the window and Finn gasped suddenly.

"That's the edge of the table! If we write a message on a bunch of legos Dad might be able to read it!"

Emmet frowned at the mention of legos, turning to face the boy, "Sure, that could work… what's a lego?"

"Uh," Finn smiled sheepishly, "that's what we call the bricks that make up your world."

"Let's do that!" Business clapped his hands together, turning to the large door that entered their current room, "Velma! Get together a bunch of old loose pieces we have lying around, if you will!"

Finn turned to watch as Velma, the robot assistant of Business, exited the room in search of parts, and he turned to find Business sending him a small, almost invisible smile.

"You know, you're smart for a kid your age."

Finn blushed, "Thanks. My Dad says that all the time."

Business nodded, his smile gone as he turned to look back out the window once more, "Your Dad's a wise man."

Finn only giggled.

* * *

Finn fiddled with the marker in his hand, frowning as he tried to write on it. Various pieces that weren't being used sat before him, Emmet, Lucy and Business busy scrawling on the pieces with their own markers. They had decided on just writing one word on the side of a one by four brick with enough words to make out '_Dad, I'm stuck here, pick me up!' _ Finn only hoped that it would work.

He finished the word Dad and placed it at the start of the others, Emmet dropping the last brick at the end of the sentence, smiling in satisfaction as he looked down at their handy work.

"I think this is going to work out," he muttered happily, smiling when Finn gave a hopeful smile.

"I hope so."

"It will," Lucy reassured, pushing herself to her feet, moving to help Finn to his own, "I'm sure it will."

"We get it, you're all extremely hopeful," Business rolled his eyes before picking up a piece and tossing it out the window, "Now help me push these outside. Velma, help please!"

Finn picked up the first piece, staring down at the word Dad before he pushed it out the window, Emmet, Lucy and Velma appearing beside him to toss out their own.

"If this works," the sudden, deep voice of Bad Cop caught the boy by surprise and he whirled around, Business reaching out to stop him from plummeting down and out of the window, "You need to make me a promise."

"Yeah, okay," Finn frowned and Bad Cop looked suddenly vulnerable, footsteps slow as he made his way towards them.

"Can you give Good Cop his face back. Please," it wasn't often that Bad Cop pleaded but he was desperate - beyond desperate - to have the brother he knew back. Sure, he kind of was, in the form of Scribble Cop, but it wasn't the same thing. It never would be.

Finn swallowed before nodding, "I'm sure my Dad can do that for you Bad Cop."

Bad gave him a rare and grateful smile before bending down to pick up the last of the bricks before tossing it into the unknown. He stood straight and the group watched them as they fell before slowly disappearing from view.

The Cop turned to face the hopeful boy next to him, "This better work."

**A/N:**So I decided to split this into three parts because this part was getting rather long… also, sorry for not updating until now; I had both a friend and a cousins birthday a day apart, so I've been travelling a bit to see them.

A huge, loving thank you to the 19 people who reviewed last chapter! All of you really make this worthwhile!

**Note: **Part 3 of 3

* * *

Finn yawned loudly from where he sat, leaning gently against Lucy, the female Master Builder happy to let the young boy nap gently against her shoulder. She met Emmet's concerned gaze, the construction worker's eyes easily telling her that he was almost ready to give up.

They had already formulated a plan; not long after tossing the pieces out the window, Business has pulled Finn aside to show him the few relics he had kept, the boy nodding politely even though he looked like he already knew what they were. Lucy had pulled Emmet aside herself, the construction worker formally frowning in distaste - he had wanted to go with both Finn and Business - and asked him what they were going to do if Finn couldn't get home.

Emmet's response had been quick, "He moves in with us."

And, at first, Lucy had been hesitant. Sure, she had come to really like the boy and grown almost protective of him, but she wasn't prepared to offer their house to a child. She had never wanted children, and sure, he wasn't biologically there's, but they'd have to act like it if they wanted him to have as normal as possible a life. The thought sent her head spinning and she had merely nodded, Emmet shooting her a grin before running to catch up with Business and Finn, the Special's childlike curiosity getting the better of him.

Now, they were all in a group, Bad Cop reading in a corner while Business paced, Finn almost asleep against Lucy while Emmet hummed under his breath. Lucy breathed a heavy sigh and rubbed a hand over her face, moving into a more comfortable position, Finn shifting along with her before dozing off against her shoulder.

"Oh, come on," Business snapped suddenly, briefly scaring the three awake figures in the room, "How long does it take to read a few bricks?"

Finn jerked away at his shout and yawned softly, sitting up against a wall and blinking groggily, "He's probably talking to Mum or something. I'm sure he'll come looking for me soon."

Lucy met Emmet's gaze, both noting the slight desperation in Finn's words. He was becoming agitated, and neither of them blamed him for it.

* * *

The Man Upstairs was a busy man. Sure, he was unaware of his God-like status among the citizens of Bricksburg - or the fact that they were _alive_ \- but that didn't mean he wasn't busy. He was constantly drowning in various career opportunities, his business becoming a booming success and making far more money than needed to place food on the table – how else would he able to afford so many LEGO sets? He also had a family; a loving wife he returned to every afternoon, who always managed to have dinner ready just after he walked through the front door, and two adorable children he would do anything for. Both Finn and Valerie were his world and if anything were to ever happen to them, he wasn't entirely sure how he'd react.

So, when he said goodnight to his wife - who had decided on going to bed early because of an ever growing headache - he was surprised to find the basement empty. Normally he found Finn downstairs, building something or talking loudly to himself as he played with the various figurines they had both grown attached too.

With a confused sigh he made his way towards the table, frowning when he reached in with a hand to pick up the strange figure in the top of the Octan Tower. The figure - which appeared to be a young boy - was sitting wedged between Emmet and Lucy, Bad Cop situated off to the side while Business stood up in the centre of the room. With a raised eyebrow he put the little, brown haired piece back down, his frown intensifying when he realized he had stepped on something. Slowly, he lifted his boot and bent down to pick up the scattered LEGO pieces that had somehow ended up on the floor.

"I told him to clean up when he was done," he muttered, throwing the pieces up and catching them on his hand once more. He breathed a tired sigh and headed towards his shelves, fully intent to store them away for another day.

That was when he saw them.

Curiously, he peered down at the pieces, frowning when he saw the black scribble that was done in a variety of styles. He recognized Finn's surprisingly neat scrawl on two of the pieces and he hummed in confusion, glancing around the room for his son once more.

With careful fingers he rearranged the pieces, placing the words until they spelt out a coherent sentence. _'Dad, I'm stuck here, pick me up.' _

He froze on the spot, his mind whirring and his heart hammering in his chest. His eyes strayed to the top of the Octan Tower, and he remembered the weird figure standing in amongst the group of known figures. A part of him reassured himself that it was just a game, that Finn was going to jump out from behind a door and scare him and they'd laugh at it for days – weeks even – because for a moment there he had actually believed Finn had been turned into a little plastic toy and really, how often did that happen?

He reached the tower and picked the little piece up, cradling it in his hands, a hurt look playing across his face. Only now could he see the resemblance the piece had to Finn and, briefly, he glanced at the piece Finn had based on himself. It was scary, really, how a piece of plastic could look so much like a human.

"Finn?" He felt stupid talking to the plastic, and his brow furrowed when the piece did nothing other than smile up at him. He sighed and shook his head, his cheeks warming up in embarrassment before he started to put the piece down.

"Dad!"

The Man Upstairs whipped his head around quickly, wincing as it cracked painfully in protest. His wide eyes fell to the piece in his hand, the plastic standing up in the palm of his hand, swaying as it – _he_ – tried to balance.

"Finn?"

"Dad! It's me, it really is!" Finn waved as his chest tightened and he felt like crying, he really did, but he wanted to wait until he was human again so he could hug his Dad and be patted on the back and be told that _everything's okay Finn, you're fine, it's all fine, you're back and you're safe. _

"What – Finn, what happened?" his Dad knelt down and brought Finn up to his face, his own chest tight as he gazed at the little plastic piece that was his son.

"I – I don't know. I picked the portal up and this happened, but it's gone and I can't get back," Finn babbled, reaching out to lay a plastic clawed had on his Dad's cheek to reassure himself that he was there and this wasn't all one, giant crazy dream.

His Dad looked around wildly, eyes resting on the portal that had rolled away from the LEGO sets and he stood up, fingers curling around Finn to keep him safe. He walked quickly towards it and picked it up, crouching once more as he opened his hand so Finn could see what he was doing once more.

"Will it work if you go through it?" he question, and Finn shrugged a shoulder. At least, that's what he thought Finn did. It was so hard to tell.

"I can't see anything else working Dad. Am I going to be stuck like this forever?" There was no mistaking the panic in Finn's voice and the Man upstairs shook his head, instantly reassuring his near hysterical son.

"No, Finn, listen. We _will_ find a way to get you back, okay?"

Finn nodded and rubbed at his eyes before looking towards the portal, "Just put me through it Dad. Please."

The Man Upstairs nodded and lifted his son to his face, kissing the top of the plastic hair piece gently before he slipped Finn into the portal.

He was hit with a sudden headache and he groaned, dropping the portal as he pressed both palms against his temples, eyes squeezed shut until it, just as sudden as it came, faded. He waited a moment before blinking his eyes open, gazing around him before he saw the familiar mess a brown hair and he choked back a sob he didn't know he had been holding.

With shaking arms he wrapped his son up in a hug, Finn turning around to wrap his own arms around his Dad's neck, the boy crying and sobbing messily into his Dad's shoulder. Finn felt his Dad rub circles into his back, another hand running through his hair.

"It's okay Finn. It's okay," his Dad whispered, his own voice choked with emotion and Finn slowly stopped sobbing and leaned back, his Dad's hands taking his face as his eyes stared into Finn's.

"Are you okay?"

Finn nodded and sniffled, rubbing at his nose with the sleeve of his jacket, "Just tired."

"Okay," his Dad nodded and kissed his forehead before crushing Finn against his chest again, "I love you so much Finn. Don't ever do that to me again."

Finn giggled halfheartedly, burrowing further against his Father's chest, feeling suddenly warm and safe in his Dad's arms, "I love you too Dad."

* * *

Emmet hummed as he worked, ignoring the look Gail had sent his way as she passed. Emmet hadn't been the same Emmet for a good week, and people were starting to realize it. He hadn't been himself after Finn had disappeared and the portal had opened once more and he'd never found out if he was alive and healthy where ever he ended up. He didn't even know if their plan had worked.

Lucy had gone back to normal. She still had the odd moments when Emmet would catch her staring at the sky, but other than that she was fine. Bad Cop was sulking, his Good Cop side still hadn't been fixed yet and that didn't help Emmet's constant worry, but Business was his usual self.

He sighed when Frank came up to him, worry etched on his face as he placed a heavy hand on Emmet's shoulder, "Emmet, listen. Are you okay?"

Emmet faked a smile and nodded, "Just fine thank you."

Frank sighed and shook his head, "Look, as your boss, it's my job to look out for you. And I, for one, and worried. So what's wrong? I know a couple of people you can go talk to if something's bothering you too much."

But Emmet shook his head and smiled once more, "I'm just tired Frank. I've had a lot going on this last week. It'll pass, I promise."

Frank hummed softly and shook his head before patting Emmet on the back once and walking off. Emmet felt his smile slip and he shook his head. He really didn't know if he could keep that promise.

* * *

It was nighttime when Emmet was plucked from his bed, the Special blinking wearily up at the face. He couldn't stop the smile from splitting across his face when he recognized who it was.

"Finn!"

"Hey Emmet," Finn smiled and looked around, sitting cross legged on the floor and dropping Emmet to his knee. Emmet, unsteadily, moved as best as he could. It was hard – so, _so_ hard – but it was worth it if he could talk to Finn and make sure he was okay.

"Finn, are you okay? What happened?"

"I'm fine. Dad put me through the portal and I was back to being – me. I'm sorry I didn't say goodbye; when I saw my Dad I couldn't think of anything else other then becoming human once more."

Emmet laughed, "It's fine. That's fine. What about Good Cop's face?"

"Dad's working on it," the reply was instant and Finn nodded, "He's just been busy with work. But Good Cop will get his face back really soon, I promise."

Emmet grinned and Finn smiled down at him, the younger boy opening his mouth slowly, "Thanks for looking out for me Emmet."

"Finn, it's fine. You don't need to thank me," Emmet smiled and Finn grinned.

"I should put you back. Do you mind if we talk every now and then?"

Emmet smiled softly, "I'd love that Finn."

"Okay," Finn's cheeks were slightly red – probably from embarrassment – and he stood up again, "Thanks for everything Emmet."

"No problem Finn. Seeya."

"Goodbye Emmet."

And if Emmet was unusually happy at work the next doay, both Frank and Gail didn't say anything.

**A/N:** I'm so, so, so, so, sooooo sorry for not updating in the last month. Honestly, these stories have been the last thing on my mind. I've been swamped in exams and assessment and all the not-so-fun stuff. But I'm on holidays now, so I'll write and update as often as I can!

A huge thank you to everyone who reviewed last chapter. Thank you for hanging on this long, and a special thank you to those who chased me up after I didn't update in a long time!


	47. Behind the Suit Part 1

**Prompt: **Luke and Emma find Business' old suit and they think he was a superhero. However, when they find out he was a super villain, it takes the most heroic of actions to gain back Luke's trust.

**Prompter: **I honestly can't remember. I totally forgot to write this prompt down and then remembered one night in bed and I feel so bad about it!

**Characters: **Emmet, Lucy, Business, Emma, Luke and Benny

**Pairing: **Emmetstyle

**Genre: **Family, Hurt/Comfort, Angst

**Rating: **K+

**Note: **The idea that Business is Emmet's dad is present in this chapter and it's humanized.

**Note 2: **Part 1 of 2

* * *

Luke knew when Emma was up to something. Her green eyes – she had gotten them from their Mum – always flashed with mischief and she always tied her brown hair – courtesy of Dad – up in a loose ponytail, pink tips swaying as she moved, rather then it's normal down and past her shoulders style.

She was in such a mood now, standing before him with her arms crossed and hip stuck out to the side and he sighed, knowing she had an idea that she wanted him to join her in. He brushed some of his dark hair to the side and out of his face before looking up at her, brown eyes timid as she opened her mouth. He really hated it when she got ideas.

"Let's go up into Pa's attic."

By Pa she had meant Business, or their Dad's Dad. For as long as Luke could remember they had always called him Pa, something he suspected Emma started when she first started to talk and then carried on when he started talking. He didn't think it would ever stop; it meant far too much to anyone for it to change.

And by attic she had meant the very one they were told, excessively, not to enter. It didn't really surprise him that she had suggested it, but it did surprise him that it took her twelve years to come up with the idea.

"I don't know Em, we're not allowed up there."

Emma sighed and rolled her eyes, "C'mon Luke, you know Mum and Dad can talk to Pa for hours! They won't even know we left the living room!"

It was true and he knew it, they always spent longer over at their Pa's house then planned, their parents often talking for much longer then they had told both he and his sister. In reality, it happened with every house they visited; Uncles Benny, Batman, Good Cop/Bad Cop and MetalBeard and Aunt UniKitty. Not that they were real Uncles and Aunts, but the titles had stuck and neither he or Emma were about to change them.

"I don't know," he trailed off, biting his bottom lip and worrying it between his teeth. Emma sighed again and shrugged before turning, hair whipping around and almost hitting him in the face. A part of him knew that that's what she had wanted to happen.

"Well I'm going up, so if you ever want to see what's up there, then you better come."

It wasn't that Luke didn't want to see what was up there. He had heard whispers from the kids at school about Business and how he use to have a cool helmet that spat fire and a long cloak but the teachers always hushed them up before long, shooting a small smile his way before continuing with the class once more. So, in a way, he did want to go up to the attic and see what was hiding up there, but he didn't want to get in trouble. His Mum always yelled at him and told him he was grounded for the weekend or a week even, depending on how bad it was, and his Dad always gave him a disappointed look and a tired sigh that made his chest hurt for some unknown reason and he hated it. But they were talking to Pa, and they had only just arrived, so would it really hurt if he looked up in the attic? Only for a minute though, just to look around and then leave and no one would ever know.

Emma was leaving the room now, looking over her shoulder with the same smirk she always wore when she knew Luke had finally decided to follow in her lead and help her get into trouble. And that's what he did; he pushed himself from the floor and bounded after her, letting her giggle lightly and then lead him up the winding stairs case that lead to the second story.

They ran lightly down the hall, ignoring the bedroom doors that lead to four poster beds and silk sheets. Pa was rich, beyond rich, and he had one of the nicest houses Luke would ever see. He still liked his home better though; it was simple, one story, three bedroom house that always seemed to have stuff on the floor and food on the table and their Mum and Dad could never keep up with the cleaning but it was home and he loved it.

He was brought out of his thoughts when Emma jumped before him, snagging the curled rope in her hand before landing on the floor with a soft thud. He took a step back, eyes wide and hands shaking as she pulled it, the staircase coming down and making a sound that made both of them freeze. They waited for the usual shouts of their names that signaled they had been caught and both breathed relieved sighs when they never came. With a sheepish smile, Luke gestured for Emma to go first and she did, rolling her eyes at his smile as she lead the way up into the darkened attic.

They entered it with a shiver, noticing how suddenly cool the air had become. Luke sneezed and rubbed his nose, Emma shooting him an annoyed glare at the sound as she fumbled for the light switch. The light above them flickered on and off and they waited with bated breath until it finally decided to turn on, casting a flickering light across the large attic. There didn't seem to be a whole lot in the room, just empty boxes and an old art set and photo album that had _Wedding of Arthur and Doris _scrawled across the top. Luke ran a hand over it and stared at the front cover, a picture of a young women with short, red hair holding white flowers as a taller, brown haired man wrapped his arms around her. He knew Arthur was his Pa's first name, so he guessed Doris was the name of his long deceased Grandmother and he felt suddenly sad, guilty even and he turned to leave when Emma gave an excited cry.

"Luke, look!"

He turned to where she was standing, her arms holding open the top of a large chest, her face split into a grin and her eyes wide as she stared into the chest. He made his way to her side, photo album long forgotten, and looked in, gasping as he realized every little story he had heard from school was true.

Inside sat a neatly folded black and red suit, the helmet sitting on top and looking as dangerous and cool as all the designs he had originally thought of when he first heard the stories. He and Emma exchanged a small look before they reached in, Emma using both hands to pick up the helmet while Luke grabbed the cape with one hand, using his other one to keep the chest open.

He let it close once more when they had their items out and he put the cape around his shoulders and ran forward, looking over his shoulder with a giggle when it trailed behind him. Emma had the helmet on her head, the girl giving a laugh when it slipped over her eyes and she stumbled forward. She pushed it back and caught Luke's eye before she grinned.

"We should show Mum and Dad!"

Luke frowned suddenly, "We weren't allowed up here though…"

Emma shrugged, grin still in place, "I don't know why, this is the coolest thing! Do you know what this means?!"

When Luke looked at her in confusion she sighed and rolled her eyes. She did that a lot, Luke noted.

"This means Pa was a superhero!"

Luke's jaw fell open before he grinned, "Let's show him then!"

And all previous thoughts of getting in trouble were gone as they ran down the rickety stairs and towards the spiral staircase that would lead them to the kitchen.

* * *

"Pa, Pa, Pa!"

Business looked away from the couple seated on the other side of the counter at the call, smiling softly as he waited for his two grandchildren – he had _grandchildren_ and even the thought sent him into a sense of joy because, once upon a time, he had never imagined it would be possible. His smile, however, slipped into an expression of dread when the two ran into the room wearing parts of his old suit and he felt his chest tighten and his face slacken and he wanted to suddenly hide, to burn the pieces he had kept because he could never really bring himself to dispose of them.

"We found your superhero costume Pa!" It was Luke that shouted it and it felt like something had punch him in the stomach and he choked, looking around to face the horrified expressions warn on both Emmet and Lucy's face.

"Kids, where…?" Emmet trailed off and Emma turned to look at her Dad.

"We found it in Pa's attic!"

"You found it _where?_" Lucy demanded, standing up to swiftly lift the helmet off of Emma's head, the girl looking up at her in sudden guilt and fear and _maybe this wasn't the smartest of ideas_, she thought.

Luke looked even more guilty and he unclasped the cape, handing it over to the awaiting hand his Mum stretched out towards him, "It was Emma's idea."

"I don't care who's idea it was Luke, you didn't have to go through with it, did you?"

"No Mum," Luke whispered, bowing his head. Emma glanced towards him before huffing and shaking her head.

"But why would you want to hide that you were a superhero Pa! That's the coolest thing! Did you and Uncle Batman ever team up?" when Business didn't answer, but instead stared rather intently at the tiles she turned a confused expression to her parents, both of whom looked like they wanted to get out of there and head home and lock their kids up and away from their Pa for as long as possible.

"Dad, if you want, we can go," Emmet mumbled and Business looked up, almost as though startled. Both Emma and Luke shared a look and swallowed, knowing full well that they were going to get in a lot of trouble when they got home.

"No," Business said and there was an unrecognizable tone to his voice, "they should know."

Emmet winced; he had been hoping to hide the whole story from the two of them for as long as possible. Lucy had wanted to tell Emma only weeks ago but he had refused and insisted they wait until they started learning about it at school.

"Know what?" Emma demanded, all sense of dread momentarily forgotten. If anyone hated being talked about while she was in the room it was Emma, and she wanted to know what they hadn't told her, but were talking about telling her that moment.

Lucy pinched the bridge of her nose, "Go wait on the couch for us-"

"Just tell us!"

"Emma!" Lucy snapped and the brunette wilted slightly before giving a small nod, turning and leaving and grabbing Luke's hand to pull him after her.

They sat on the couch in silent, Luke kicking his feet gently and feeling like he wanted to cry while Emma sat back, arms crossed and scowl fixed on her features. They heard their parents talking in the kitchen along with their Pa and never had Luke wished he could time travel as much as he did at that moment.

"We really made Pa upset, didn't we?" he asked and Emma sighed.

"I don't know why though, he was a Superhero!"

"Do you think he failed?" Luke looked up at her and her expression softened before she, too, looking like she wanted to cry. Even if she acted like she was strong and tough, even Luke knew she hated getting in trouble.

"Before we start anything else, I just want to say I am really disappointed in the two of you and you're both grounded for a week, okay?" Lucy stated, leading the other two men into the living room and taking up the seats on a three seater, Emma and Luke sitting directly across from them, a coffee table the only thing between them. They both gave mumbled agreement, Emma looking like she wanted to argue until Lucy sent her a hard stare.

"I wasn't a superhero," Business started and both Emma and Luke looked at him in curiosity. The ex-President took a deep breath, his head in his hands, Emmet scooting slightly closer to him for comfort before he started once more, "I was a villain. A terrible, terrible villain."

Luke froze on his seat, his chest tightening with fear and his breath hitched.

"What did you do?" Emma asked, still as curious as ever but Luke didn't want to hear anymore because his Pa, the man across the coffee table from him, had, at once stage, been evil. And was there any proof that he wasn't anymore?

"I tried to- I tried to Kragle the world. I tried to kill your parents and all the Master Builders and I almost," Business trailed off and refused to looked up from the floor, "I almost succeeded."

Emma didn't look entirely scared, shocked, yes, but not scared. Luke knew she was stronger than him, and she probably understood a whole lot better than he did; he didn't even know what Kragle meant but by the way his parents flinched at the word it was evil. But he _was_ scared, terrified even, and he shook his head, sucking in a deep breath that his fear didn't seem to want him to have.

"No, you weren't," he whispered and Business looked up, his brown eyes shining with unshed tears.

"Luke, I'm sorry," Business' voice broke and he shook his head "I'm so sorry."

Luke jumped to his feet, his own head shaking. Both his parents were watching him, Emmet almost rising out of his chair as though he knew how he was going to act.

"You can't be evil! You're Pa, our Pa! You… you wouldn't kill Mum and Dad, you wouldn't!" Luke was hysterical, the tears falling from his eyes like tiny shards of glass that cut into his cheeks. He rubbed at them angrily and tried to meet his Pa's eyes, wishing he hadn't when he finally did.

There was no denying that his Pa had once, truly been evil and tried to kill his family.

He ran. He didn't care that Lucy and Emma were calling his name, or that Business had buried his head in his hands, his shoulders shaking, or that Emmet had leaped up from the chair and followed him. He ran out the front door as fast as his legs would carry him. The tears burnt and his feet stung from the gravel underfoot. He had left his shoes back at the house but he didn't stop.

He didn't even make it halfway to the car before Emmet grabbed his arm and whirled him around, falling to his knees before crushing Luke against his chest. Luke cried, burying his chest into his Dad's shoulder, his whole body shaking in fear. His Pa was a villain and had tried to _kill_ people.

"Tell me it's not true Dad, please."

"Luke, I'm so sorry," Emmet was crying too, his hand running through the mess that was his son's hair, his own head resting against Luke's. "I'm so sorry we had to tell you."

"I don't wanna see him anymore," Luke mumbled and Emmet pulled back, staring at him in shock.

"Luke, he's your Pa, he loves you."

"No!" Luke gave a sudden shout and tore himself from his father's grip, his vision blurred from behind tears that wouldn't stop falling, "He's not! He tried to kill you and Mum and I don't want him to try again. I don't want you to- to die." His voice broke off and Emmet reached out for him again, cradling him gently against his chest as he cried and blew snot into Emmet's shirt and the construction worker sighed, staring at the sky with tear filled eyes of his own and wishing, so, so desperately, that he could rewind time and keep a better eye on his kids so this never happened.

"Please don't make me see him again," the broken sobs came from the bundle in his arms and Emmet closed his eyes, refusing to let himself answer as his son sobbed harshly into his chest, his own tears falling as he held back choked sobs.

**A|N:** I was planning on having this as one chapter, but when I was done it was well around 5k words and I decided to split into two for easy reading. I really liked writing this and I really liked the prompt so a huge thank you to whoever did request it.

If you're looking for a good, angsty story with a side of Emmetstyle, check out xXTheLivelyFutureXx's fic 'Guilt'. She's a friend and she's young but her writing is fantastic for her age and I think the fic has a lot of potential :)

A huge thank you to the following people for leaving a review last chapter;

**xXTheLivelyFutureXx:** Aww, thanks! And yes, we have :)

**edger230:** You're review made me smile like an idiot. Thank you!

**Sakiko of soleana:** Thanks!

**Minecraft Guardiansaiyan:** That's actually a really cool idea :D

**The Wild West Pyro:** Aww, thank you!

**Blaze Darkrunner:** Thank you!

**Wafflestheninja:** :D

**KarToon12:** I think he'd rather keep it between the two of them… don't want them sounding crazy and everything ;) That's a really cool idea too!


	48. Chapter 48

**Prompt:** Luke and Emma find Business' old suit and they think he was a superhero. However, when they find out he was a super villain, it takes the most heroic of actions to gain back Luke's trust.

**Prompter:** KarToon12 (I found the person who gave me the prompt!)

**Characters: **Emmet, Business, Luke, Emma

**Pairing:** Emmetstyle

**Genre:** Angst, Hurt/Comfort, Family

**Rating: **T

**Note:** Part 2 of 2

**Note 2:** I know the prompt says a heroic action, like saving him or something, but I found this way to be far sweeter and to show a different side of Business I don't think I've written before :)

Luke really didn't want to go back to the former President's house, even if it was big and had a TV the size of his bedroom wall. It didn't help that Emma, who was sitting in the passenger seat of their father's car, kept turning around and glaring at him.

In all honesty, the eight year old didn't know what he had done. In his mind, he had acted as rationally as possible when finding out your grandfather used to be a bad guy and even threatened to kill your parents. And even if Luke had spent past Christmases and birthdays with the much older man, he didn't want anything to do with him because someone who had been so evil couldn't possibly change so drastically. It never happened in movies or books, so Luke's eight year old mind summed up the possibility of it ever happened to a near 0%.

"Dad, do we have to go back? Can't we just go visit Mum at work instead?" he spoke in a small voice, eyes starting at his intertwined hands in his lap, his bottom lip jutting out in a pout. From the front seat, Emma rolled her eyes and turned to stare out the passenger door with a glare.

Emmet breathed a sigh and glanced in the rearview mirror briefly, "Luke, you have to apologize to your Pa, you know that."

"But he's evil Dad," Luke argued, brows drawn together in confusion.

"Luke, he's not evil-"

"He tried to kill you and Mum!" Luke's voice was rising slightly, cracking slightly as his vision blurred slightly. Emmet, in hopes of quelling the chance of an argument breaking out, merely sighed once more and continued driving in silence, turning a corner and giving a small, nervous smile when Business' house came into view.

"Look, we're here," Emma muttered, sinking lower in her seat, "so let's go get this over with and go watch that new movie that your promised to take us too."

Emmet chuckled slightly and parked his car, climbing out quickly and shutting his door with a little more force than necessary while Luke refused to move, arms crossed against his chest and glare set firmly on the back of Emmet's chair.

"Come o Luke," Emmet opened his son's door, "let's just get this over with. We'll explain everything, okay?"

"What if he tries to hurt us?" Luke turned his gaze up to Emmet's, the Special wincing at the fear that reflected in his son's brown eyes.

He knelt down, unbuckling Luke and turning him so they were facing each other, "Luke, I promise you, I won't let anything happen to you and Emma, okay?"

When Luke gave a hesitant nod, Emmet stepped back, giving his son a small, proud smile when he jumped out of the car and close the door quietly. He let Luke's grip his hand tightly and they waited for Emma to make her way around to them before heading up to the front porch. After squeezing his son's hand and breathing yet another tired sigh, he knocked on the door.

It was almost as if Business was waiting for them to arrive, the door swinging open merely seconds after he had knocked. The older man, whose hair had long started to turn grey, stared at them in a shocked silence, eyes darting between both Emmet and Luke, Emma apparently long forgotten.

Emmet cleared his throat, shifting slightly on the spot, "Can we come in Dad? Luke wants to say something."

Luke bit his bottom lip, watching as Business glanced at him before giving a small nod, holding the door open wider so the three of them could file in.

"Do you guys want something to drink?" he murmured, still in obvious shock at their appearance.

"I think we're fine," Emmet smiled and Business nodded curtly, turning to lead them into the sitting room. The further away from the door they travelled, the tighter Luke's grip on his Dad's hand increased.

If Luke had been any older than a mere eight years, maybe he'd be willing to admit he was acting irrationally. But he was only eight, and he scared so, the moment they entered the sitting room and Emmet let go of his hand briefly, he bolted.

Ignoring the way both Emmet and Emma yelled for him to come back, he ran as fast as his little feet would carry him up the winding staircase to the second floor, running past the various doors that lead to spare bedrooms he had fallen asleep in many times before. He ducked into one of the last rooms – a room he had never been in before – and closed the door behind him, leaning up against it and breathing heavily. His vision was blurred with fat tears that rolled down his cheeks and his heart twisted painfully and fear. He sunk down on his knees, dragging them up against his chest, burying his head on top.

His broken sobs echoed around the empty room and he tightened his arms around his knees, rocking slightly as he cried. He ignored the way Emmet knocked on the door, begging him to open it, and he ignored the way Emma called for him to come out in such a soft voice he didn't realize it was her at first. His sobs increased when he heard Business on the other side and he shouted in a quavering voice for them to leave him alone.

"Luke, let's just talk this out, okay?" Business spoke through the door, and Luke was almost unaware that he had sunk to the floor on the other side.

"Don't- don't hurt them Pa," Luke begged and he heard Business breathe a sigh from the other side.

"Luke, I'm not going to hurt anyone; I just want to talk."

Luke sniffled and rubbed his nose with the sleeve of his shirt, "O-okay."

"Luke," Business paused to swallow slightly, leaning his head back against the door, "I'm sorry. I didn't mean for this to happen, I just wanted to forget that I was ever a… a villain."

"Why'd you do it?" Luke curled in on himself, sniffling audibly and choking back sobs.

"I wanted to keep everyone safe. I know that doesn't sound evil, but it was how I went about it that was wrong. After- after your Mama died, I was so obsessed with keeping people safe that I brought out rules, instruction booklets, and made it the law that they be followed. At first, people disagreed, but as I brought out more, the people adapted and it was no problem."

"But why? You didn't have to try to kill Dad…"

"He was in my way. Even with the instruction booklets, mistakes happen, so gluing everyone in their spots would grant me total protection over everyone, no one would lose anyone, they'd all be safe. Your Dad – and your Mum – they got in my way… got in my way of protecting everyone and I guess I just panicked…" Business trailed off and Luke swallowed loudly.

The eight year old stood up on shaky legs and slowly opened the door, Business leaning forward slightly to stop from toppling over. The former president looked up at his grandson with a small, sad smile, and Luke, suddenly, threw himself into his arm's, wrapping his arms around the man's neck and burying his head in his shoulder.

"I'm sorry for getting scared. It's not your fault, you just wanted to protect people."

"I know," Business murmured, rubbing circles on Luke's back, "but what I did was still wrong. I know that now, trust me Luke, I know it now. And I won't ever try to hurt anyone ever again."

Luke grinned and pulled back, glancing up at his Dad's slightly teary expression with a small smile before looking back at his Pa, "I love you."

Business smiled and gently took Luke's head in his hands, bringing his head down the lightly kiss his forehead, "I love you too Luke."

**A|N:** I'm not too fond of this… I don't know why, but everything I've written for it just hasn't turned out as good as I want it too :/ I mean, I still like it, it's just not up there with my favorite pieces :)

But anyway, a huge thank you to those who have reviewed recently. Because I've been gone so long, so many have reviewed and I've been super surprised! But I will be updating this once a week, because I want to get all my currently listed prompts out of the way before classing this story as finished. Anyway, I'll see you all on Friday for when I update It's The Little Things That Count!

Much love, - Taylor!


	49. Chapter 49

**Prompt: **" As she watched her world fall into darkness, he put a hand on her shoulder."

**Prompter: **Graviton Bomber

**Character(s): **UniKitty, Benny

**Genre(s): **Angst, Hurt/Comfort

**Pairing(s): **UniBenny(?) if you want them together :)

**Rating: **T

* * *

As she watched her world fall into darkness, he put a hand on her shoulder.

He didn't know what else he could do to help her. Her eyes were wide and glassy, her shoulders trembling under his hands. Her small, sharp sniffles were the only sound in the otherwise silence of the ship, and the other occupants had all moved to the opposite end.

"UniKitty I'm- I'm dreadfully sorry," he squeaked in pity, because he didn't have the experience to sympathize with her. He had never really lost a home, he was far too accustomed to travelling through space and stopping wherever he pleased.

Outside the small round window, the Dog cracked loudly and continued to sink, and UniKitty made a small whine that twisted his heart in his chest. With a heavy sigh, he knelt down beside her, his arm wrapping almost protectively around her shoulders.

"I'll help you build a new one when it's all over," he knew it wasn't much help – she didn't even move her gaze from where it stared – but it was all he could offer. He couldn't time travel back in time and stop the invasion from happening.

He sighed once more, almost frowning at how weird it felt not to be happy. Normally he was always buzzing around in people's face and screaming spaceships or some other space related nonsense.

It felt weird to be kneeling next to someone who was sobbing while trying to comfort them.

"You know-" he stumbled for words, glancing over his shoulder at the others who all seemed to be very interested in asking how Emmet hadn't realized he had been shot with a tracker – _"I know I was shot at but I didn't think it was a tracker you guys!"_ – before glancing back to the princess next to him.

"We'll make it even better next time 'Kitty! I mean… I know nothing can ever compare to what you had, because it was… _home_," the words tasted weird in his mouth and he swallowed, "but I promise I'll help you try to make something that's just as good, maybe even better."

The princess finally turned to stare at him with giant, blue eyes and she cracked a small smile, "Thanks Benny. Maybe we'll even put a space station in…" she trailed off with a giggle and Benny grinned wildly.

That was when Emmet decided to make himself present and dutifully ask if they wanted to sit down and talk about it – cue angry glares because, really, who builds a double decker chair when a world is ending – and Benny's hand didn't leave UniKitty's shoulder until the water burst in from around them, and he was sure she was safe in one of the chair's compartments.

* * *

**A|N:** I was trying to make this longer, but really, I didn't want to stretch it out any further then it already is… but on a positive note, I've got another chapter waiting to be uploaded within 24 hours, and that's a definite promise because I've got it waiting and there's a giant sticky note next to my desk telling me to update it.

A huge shout out and thanks to everyone who reviewed last chapter; I'll do responses next chapter :D

**DOUBLE ALSO;** Super sorry about vanishing for _far_ too long!

* * *

It's in a small construction site on the western side of Bricksburg where she meets him. She's just done a job - a middle aged man who'd fallen from scaffolding and landed on his head - and is seconds from stepping out of the Reaper Plain when he steps around the corner.

His eyes are red, puffy and bloodshot, and she can tell the dark brown of them has faded in grief and despair. His hair looks like he's run his hands through it far too often, and she feels guilty - for about the fifth time that day - that she was born as she was.

She knows what her job does to people. She knows that she delivers, multiple times a day, heartache and grief, and sometimes she thinks the people deserve it, and others she thinks they don't. It never gets easier seeing people like this; so broken and upset that she knows it'll take weeks, months, sometimes _years _for people to get use to having someone gone, permanently, from their lives.

She goes to leave, turns her back to the man, but he reaches out before she can start to walk away and his hand finds her shoulder and turns her around.

He looks worse up close, and she can tell he's close to crying again.

"This is a restricted area," he says, but it's more of a mumble and choked and her heart _aches_ for him, "you can't be here."

"I know," she replies, and she's surprised by how thick her voice is. The man looks startled, and he glances around before leading her to a spot well away from prying eyes.

"Did you know Ben?" he asks, and she shakes her head.

"No but," she pauses, licks her lips that are suddenly too dry, and refuses to meet the construction worker's gaze, "but I knew people who knew him."

It's a lie, but not quiet. Because she knows everyone, she only has to hold her 'phone' up to someone, while standing in the Reaper Plain, and she has their age and their name, date of birth and the date in which they'll pass. She'd checked, just after her job, on a red head crying into the arms of a dark skinned woman, and the name Fae Dallas had popped up, and the ring on her finger and the little blond girl with the same blue eyes as Ben by her side had said it all.

"You knew Fae?" the man, she doesn't know his name and she kicks herself for it, asks, and she nods curtly.

"I did. She's… upset."

"Three years," Emmet mumbles, and he chokes back a sob that has his shoulders shaking with the force of it, "they were married three years. Chloe was two when they finally married."

"I'm sorry," she says, hands in her pockets, and the man's hand finally drops from her shoulder. She doesn't know what else to say, can't say anything else, but the guilt is eating her alive.

She wishes she'd stayed in the Reaper Plain until she was far away.

"Don't be sorry," he says, and he turns, a hand flipping his hard hat back onto his head before straightening his safety vest, "it's not like it's your fault, right?"

He vanishes before she can say anything.

* * *

She sees him next two months later when she's exiting the hospital, dark rings under her eyes and her hair unbrushed.

His arm is in a sling and he's waiting on the curb for a taxi, phone in one hand and pressed against his ear. She hears the name Benny, and something about spaceships and not parking them in the backyard but doesn't focus on it.

Instead she goes to find a spot behind the building so she can enter the Reaper Plain and fast travel to her apartment, but he turns and catches her eyes and smiles and suddenly she can't move.

He looks better, dressed in a simple blue shirt and jeans, hair combed, little tufts sticking up at the back and she wants to smooth them down but she knows it'd be awkward if she did.

So instead she stands and waits for him to hang up on whoever Benny is before coming to stand before her.

"Hey, you're the girl from the construction sight," he grins, smile so wide, and his eyes _sparkle_ and she thinks he's adorable in every sense of the word.

"That's me," she forces a smile and shakes his hand when he offers it out to her, "the names Wyldstyle."

"Like a DJ?" he chuckles at his own joke, and she finds herself smiling.

"No," she doesn't mind the idea though, "unfortunately."

"Maybe one day," he shrugs, "I'm Emmet. Emmet Brickowski."

"Emmet Brickowski from Bricksburg," she muses, and Emmet grins even wider until she finds she can't help her arms from dropping away from her chest, "is your house made of bricks too?"

He laughs, and it's bright and loud and so full of warmth, "No. But I _do _play with LEGO."

"Well there you go," she replies, and Emmet's grin dies down until it's just a warm smile. The taxi pulls up behind them and he glances over his shoulder.

"I guess this is where I leave," he mumbles, and suddenly he blushes and scratches the back of his neck. She waits, her heart skipping strangely in her chest, but he doesn't say anything, just shakes his head and offers a wave.

"See ya round."

"See you later alligator," she says, and she freezes when she realizes what she's said. She hasn't said those words in years, not since Bruce, and her mouth is dry and her heart frozen.

Emmet doesn't notice, he just gives her a confused smile before climbing into the taxi, and she watches the yellow vehicle disappear from view.

She walks back to her apartment instead of fast travelling.

* * *

"I think you should go for it."

She groans and tugs her short side ponytail and sweeps strands of blue and pink behind an ear, "It's pointless."

"Nonsense," the girl, because that's what she _looks like_ before her shakes her head, bright pink hair a long mess around her shoulders, "ask him out."

It's three weeks after meeting Emmet outside the hospital and she hasn't stopped thinking about him. She hasn't seen him, but she finds herself looking for him. Which is silly, on her part, because any kind of relationship, be it platonic or romantic, is pointless with her line of work.

"UniKitty," she says and the girls turns from where she's tapping away at a computer, pink eyebrow raised and red lips wide with her grin, "it's a _bad idea._"

"I don't think so," the girl sings and she stands up, hands smoothing the faded yellow of her dress, "just one date."

"'Kitty, he lives in Bricksburg," Lucy argues, "Bricksburg and surrounding towns are _my domain_. Where I _work_. Do I need to remind you of my job, even if you are my boss?"

UniKitty merely waves a hand, "So you collect the souls of the deceased and send them on to the Afterlife, what's the big deal?"

"He will _die_," she hisses, and her hands clench but UniKitty still doesn't look fazed, "and it'll be my job to send him off. Just… just like Bruce."

"Lucy, what's the point in living if you're not… _living_?" UniKitty asks, and Lucy sits down, head in her hands and nails digging into her scalp and the girl before her continues, "you're just existing. And yes, one day you'll have to send his soul. But honestly, how _else_ would you rather he die?"

She doesn't have an answer for that.

"Besides," the pink haired girl continues, kneeling down before her and looking far wiser than the immortal fourteen year old body she possesses, "you'll have to do it eventually."

"Okay," she mumbles, head up, and UniKitty beams at her, "one date. But _only_ to get to know him better."

She can't help but smile when UniKitty sits up beside her and rambles on about the possibility of her being happy once more.

* * *

It's another month before she sees Emmet, and this time he's just exiting a coffee shop, his arm still in a sling and someone - she wonders briefly if it's Benny - by his side.

"WyldStyle!" he grins and waves and the man - who she realizes is wearing a police uniform - by his side frowns at the name.

"Emmet," she returns the smile and crosses her arms like she always does when she's feeling a little insecure, "can we talk?"

Emmet nods and turns, whispers something to the cop who grunts and walks away, before turning back to her. He shifts, cheeks suddenly red, and he clears his throat before forcing a smile.

"So, uh… what did you want to talk about?"

She's as bad at this as she is, and she licks her lips and refuses to quite meet his eyes, "Would you like to go out… on a date?"

He freezes, blinks once and then twice, and then frowns, "It's Aprils Fools day, isn't it?"

"What?" she frowns and shakes her head, and she can't help but laugh at how adorable he looks all flustered before her, "No! That's… why would anyone do that as a joke?"

Emmet shrugs then, wane smile across his lips, "Happened to me in ninth grade."

"That's terrible," she replies and Emmet shrugs helplessly before her.

"So, uh," he licks his own lips, eyes darting around, and she shifts from one foot to the other, "did you… mean it? About the date, I mean."

"Yes," she clears her throat and nods, "I did."

"Well then," he looks a little confused, but suddenly he grins and meets her eyes and his are so brown she thinks she could drown in them, "I'd love to. Go on a date… with you, of course."

He smiles, goofy and happy and she returns it, and the vice made of iron around her heart cracks slightly. She thinks she can be happy if she gets to see that goofy smile of his again.

"Good," she mumbles, and she joins his side when he starts off down the street, "we can start by you telling me about your arm."

* * *

**A|N: **Heyy! I'm so sorry about going away for so long; I've had personal problems and school and an operation that I'm 99.9% sure didn't actually do anything, unfortunately. I've also been working on some original stuff, and my interest in fanfiction kind of just... died, I guess. But I'm back, I don't know for how long, but I'm back! I'm not taking requests, and any requests I did have are long long gone, so apologies to those I never finished.

A HUGE thank you to everyone who read this chapter and reviewed that last one, and I'll update this as soon as I can, hopefully. Lots of love, - Taylor
