Request 1

A/N: Hi, everybody! So, I got this request AGES ago. So long ago I honestly can’t remember but I think the person has deactivated their tumblr. I’ve been super busy (because mandatory overtime during a pandemic sounds like a fantastic idea right?), but I FINALLY got it done! Their request was that they wanted something where Joe is doing one of his videos with fanmail. I hope, if they have another account or something, they find this and I hope you all enjoy!

Pairing: Joe Mazzello x fem!Reader

Summary: Joe’s on break from his last film and staying at his mom’s house. You decide to go see him.

Warnings: None

Taglist: @queenlover05 @seven-seas-of-ham-on-rhyee @theblossomknows

 You collapsed into your car, already exhausted thinking about the drive that you had to make.

You were going to surprise your boyfriend, Joe, by driving to his mom’s house, stopping at the market, and then you were going to make one of his favorite meals and desserts. He was finally on break from his last job and you knew he needed something to help him relax.

You practically ran through the store grabbing the ingredients. The quicker you got everything, the quicker you could see him.

You pulled up and parked in the driveway. Your heart was beating a little fast. The two of you hadn’t seen each other in almost three months. You originally had plans to meet later, but you liked this idea better.

You were hoping to make it a surprise, but you knew he’d have to let you in as you didn’t have a key to his mom’s place.

That was until you saw his mother coming out, pulling her jacket around her.

You quickly got out of the car and waved to her. “Virginia! Hi!”

She jumped for a moment but then smiled when she met your eyes. She finished coming down the porch and gave you a hug. “Hi, sweetheart, how are you?”

“I’m good, thanks,” you smiled at her. You loved Virginia since the first time Joe had brought you home to meet his family. If you were being honest, you loved all of the Mazzellos. “How are you?”

Virginia just waved her hands in the air, as if batting the question away. “I’m actually headed out for the evening. One of our instructors is in a little production not too far away and she got us all tickets.” She looked you over and sighed contently. “Joe’s inside. Last I heard him he was talking to somebody on the phone. Make yourself at home, honey. The door should be unlocked.”

You thanked her and gave her another hug before you grabbed your groceries out of the car. You went in and started unpacking the groceries. The house was weirdly quiet. Most of the time when you were here it was filled with people and activity.

That was until you heard Joe’s voice.

“...this,” Joe paused. “Came from somebody in Queensland. They drew this! It looks exactly like me. Isn’t that crazy?”

It sounded like he was talking on the phone to somebody because nobody responded. You giggled to yourself. He was probably going through his fan gifts. He loved them so much and they meant so much to him. Maybe he was talking to his mom. He’d done that on occasion. He could also be talking to any of his friends.

You slowly opened the door and saw Joe sitting at his desk, his phone in front of him, surrounded by gifts from people.  You listened to him talk for a few moments before you started to make your way into the room. You figured he was just FaceTiming so you snuck in and just appeared over his shoulder.

“Oh! And this one,” Joe went to reach for another when he must’ve seen you out of the corner of his eye because he finally turned to you. His eyes widened for a moment and you giggled.

“About time that you noticed me here.”

“I um…hi. When did you get here?”

“About two minutes ago. You seem nervous. Talking to your other girlfriend?”

You draped your arms around Joe’s shoulder and looked at his iPad to see who he was talking to. You expected to see somebody else’s face, but you just saw the two of you. Joe was grinning at you and you watched your face contort into one of confusion.

And then you saw the comments start flying in.

‘OHMYGOSSSSSSSH!’

‘OTHER girlfriend??? As in SHE’S his girlfriend????’

Then you saw hearts and different emojis appear on the screen.

“A…are you live right now?”

Joe chuckled. “I am. And now so are you.” Joe turned back towards his phone. “So, everyone, to answer your questions, yes. This is my girlfriend, Y/N,” he pressed a kiss to your temple. “Y/N, these are my Instagram followers.”

You waved sheepishly and then backed away so that you couldn’t see yourself on his phone.

You loved Joe, but you had stayed out of the spotlight with him because you didn’t want all that attention and press.

“Well guys, as you can see, I am being very rude to my house guest so, I gotta go. However, I sincerely, from the bottom of my heart want to thank everybody that’s sent me gifts, or letters, or anything. You guys make my day and I will talk to you all soon.”

You watched as Joe waved and then pressed something on his screen, ending the video. He stood up and walked over to you wrapping you up in a hug. You buried your head in his chest, both trying to get closer to him and hide from embarrassment.

“Hi,” he laughed, you felt it in his chest.

“Hi,” you mumbled.

“This is a nice surprise,” Joe kissed the top of your head. He lifted your chin and smiled at you. “I thought we were going to meet in the city later.”

“I thought I’d cook for you. I didn’t realize that you’d be on Instagram Live!”

“I decided to open some more gifts and I thought that might be easier than doing a video and posting it to Youtube.”

“And now everybody knows that we’re a couple.”

Joe smiled and then gave you a kiss on the lips.

“You say that like it’s a bad thing,” Joe teased, after you broke apart.

“It’s not, except I’m sure your other girlfriends might be upset.”

“Ben and Gwil already know about you,” Joe continued pressing kisses to your face.

You hummed a laugh as Joe slid his hands down to your hips.

“You know, I did bring us some dinner.”

“Mmm I think I’d rather have dessert first,” Joe continued down your neck.

You giggled. “Stop it, come on, I’ll make your favorite.” You grabbed his hands and started to pull him into the kitchen. “I’ve got dessert too, and juuuust maybe, I’ll let you lick the spoon.” You winked at him over your shoulder.

Joe groaned, but happily followed you.

The two of you went into the kitchen and began making the meal. You tried to do it all yourself, but Joe insisted on helping.  It all felt very domestic. It made you imagine a time when maybe the two of you could be living together. Maybe even married. Maybe with kids running around and…

“Y/N! The water’s boiling over!”

You snapped out of your daydream and quickly turned the temperature down.

“Are you okay? You spaced out for a minute there.”

You turned to look at him as he continued cutting up the vegetables.

“Yeah, I just…was thinking.”

“About?”

You felt some heat come to your cheeks. You and Joe hadn’t talked about moving in together yet and you didn’t want to scare him away.

“Nothing, just thinking.”

Joe stopped and turned to look at you.

“Nothing, huh?”

You shrugged and turned away, hoping he didn’t notice the dusting of blush on your cheeks. You felt Joe wrap his arms around your waist, tucking his chin into the crook of your neck.

“Well, if you were thinking about the same thing I was then you were picturing the two of us doing something like this in a place of our own. Maybe a tiny apartment in Manhattan  that we can barely move around in. Or we could buy a place near here. Or, hell, we could just buy an RV  and roam the country.”

You turned around so that you were facing Joe, wrapping your arms around his neck. “You know, if you want to live with me, Mazzello, all you have to do is ask.”

Three Months Later:

Joe Mazzello Is Bored has posted a new video: Moving In- Our New Place

can we talk about joe's acting in the scene where freddie tells them he has aids bc its so incredibly powerful even if we don't get much of it. john really comes through in that scene. he's so sad, terrified and shocked all at the same time and you see each emotion in different ways; in the clench of his jaw, the leaning back, the staring vacantly. but you also see his mind immediately begin to wonder what the band is without freddie and whats going to happen. and thats beautifully painful acting.

Alaska || Ben Hardy x reader

Warnings: uhh, there really isn’t any. 

A/N: I’m sorry this took so long to come out! This is kind of crappy because I couldn’t really think of what else to add that wouldn’t drag it on forever and stuff.

Thank you @onceuponadetectivedemigod for requesting! I hope its okay.

---

“Why the hell did we agree to come to Alaska for a honeymoon again” you asked your, now five months, husband. He laughed. “You said it was more of a reason to cuddle” Ben answered as he started unpacking his luggage from his bag. You groaned. “Why couldn’t we go to Hawaii? Or Bora Bora? Somewhere hot, I could see you shirtless then” you said with a grin to the end of your sentence. “You see me shirtless all the time” Ben answered as he swung one of your bras in your direction having shoved it in his bag last minute before leaving. “And apparently everyone else” you muttered jokingly. Ben scoffed and laughed but didn’t answer, he knew it was all in good fun. You and Ben had just gotten married five months ago but due to a call back on some photos and reshoots for Ben’s newest film your honeymoon was put on hold for a little while. You had gotten time off work due to a marriage thing your work does for newly married couples and Ben had asked for time off too so here you where, just landed and unpacking in Alaska; of all goddamn places you had to go you two decided on Alaska. It was remote where you two had booked, the owls sung around in the trees and every now and then you would see some moose or a snowy fox. You two had booked a nice little holiday house, the bedroom was on the second floor with a balcony right in front of the bed and overlooked a beautiful little lake, on the first floor was the normal stuff; kitchen, sitting room, a nice little study and bathroom and everything else. The house was stocked up with food and drinks already and heaters in almost every room. “Where’d Frankie go?” Ben asked standing up straight suddenly and looking around, at the mention of her name Frankie let out a little yap, Ben cocked an eyebrow as he opened the balcony door and walked out looking down off the ledge, a smile spreading over his face at the sight of Frankie playing in the snow. “I let her out when we got here, she was so excited” you said coming up behind Ben, wrapping your arms around the man’s waist you rest your chin on his shoulder as Ben leant his head against yours and you both watched Frankie play in the snow; there was a fence wrapping around the back of the house with a gate that lead to the lake, so Frankie was safe where she was. Ben sighed softly as he turned around and wrapped his arms around you, resting his head on the top of your head the boy dug his nose into your hair and inhaled softly. “Your hair always smells beautiful” Ben mumbled into your hair. “You always say that” you mumble back with a giggle. “Can you believe we’re married?” Ben said softly, the forest around the house seemed to whisper at this as a wind blew through the leaves and a few birds called after it. “Five months married, ten years together” you said softly, “took you long enough to propose” you giggled. “Shut up, it never felt right when I thought about it until I ACTUALLY proposed to you” Ben said as his grip slowly loosened on you, you both started swaying softly to an imaginary beat as you looked at each other. “You didn’t propose the way I thought you would” you said with a laugh as you rest your head on Ben’s chest. “What? I thought you always wanted it to happen at a pizza date?” Ben said with a smile, you shook your head the best you could with a grin. “Yeah, with pizza grease on my mouth and cheeks, my hair up in a messy bun with a pair of oversized basketball shorts and your jumper on” you remarked with a laugh. “I couldn’t help myself, it just sort of came out. I don’t like seeing you dolled up in a dress and makeup and hair- well I do, don’t…don’t get me wrong I love it seeing you dolled up with all of that, your beautiful when you’re dolled up, you’re always beautiful even when you’re not!” Ben rambled making you laugh as you looked up at him, the boy closed his eyes with a smile, “point is, I love you, but I love the real you; and if the real you is with pizza grease on your mouth and cheeks, hair in a messy bun with basketball shorts and my jumper, then that’s my favourite type of you” you laughed softly wiht closed eyes before quickly opening them again and gripping Bens beanie, pulling it down over his eyes and nose. You stepped back, cackling with laughter, doubling over your stomach, "oh yeah, real sweet babe, lovely" Ben remarked with a grin as he fixed his beanie. "I thought it was funny" you said with a giggle before giving off a shriek as Ben came charging at you, pulling you over his shoulder and spinning around softly, "NO BEN! BEN STOP!" you yelled with laughter, hitting the mans back as you kicked your feet trying to get out of his grasp. Ben stopped slowly and let you down back onto your feet as he held your waist to make sure you wouldnt fall, his boyish grin giving a delightful glow to the world around you. You sighed softly and shook your head before taking out your phone, "come on, lets take a video, show everyone where we are" you said with a grin, you leant over the railing a little and started the video, capturing Frankie running around in the snow before panning the camera up to the lake and giving a nice view before turning the camera around to face you. Ben had his arms wrapped around you and his chin rest in the junction where your shoulder and the base of your neck met, the boy smiled into the camera as you did too, giving a small giggle as Ben kissed your cheek, a large wet sounding 'MWUAH' when he let you go. You let out a laugh but kept the video going as you gripped Bens beanie and pulled it over his eyes again, you gave the camera a good view of it as Ben stood still in defeat, shoulder sagging with a playful pout on his lips before you gave the camera a kiss and stopped the recording. "Do I look cute?" Ben asked as he made some silly poses with his beanie still around his nose and eyes. "Oh yeah definately, beautiful, stunning" you said with a laugh, you opened your instagram app and loaded the video before typing the caption 'we're safe and haven't died. Yet.', adding a few hashtags and tagging Ben (and his friends) in the video before posting it, "think the fans will be jealous?" you asked as you looked over the railing at the lake. Ben came up behind you again and rest his chin on your head and held you softly. "That you're with me? That we're married? That we're in Alaska?" Ben questioned making you snort softly as your shook your head. "That you look so cute in beanies" you said softly, cuddling backwards into Ben. The boy retaliated by squeezing you a little tighter. "They're always jealous of me in beanies. And me in general" Ben said as you two laughed.

it won’t be long

Pairing: Joe Mazzello x Female Reader

Summary: You both promised it wouldn’t be long until you were back together, but it’s been a year and that doesn’t seem to be happening. Maybe the award season will either push back together or be your final goodbye.

Author’s Note: Okay, so I have had this in the time for a really long time, as you will since this based on the Golden Globes and that has been a while. But I am super excited about today, the Oscars and decided to just fuck it, and post it.

Hope you like it!

Who knew dating could be so difficult? Well, Joe soon discovered after he broke up with his first girlfriend. He wished that his first heartbreak prepared him for his future relationships but no such thing. Honestly, nothing can really prepare someone when it came to love and relationships. You will always make mistake and have regrets along the way. But if there was one of the of Joe’s biggest regrets when it came to relationships was breaking up with you.

It wasn’t a bitter breakup, but it was bittersweet. You know when those couples that often state the reason of their breakup was because of their busy schedule when in reality it was for other reasons, well, that was the actual reason why you two broke up. The problem simply was that you and Joe were just so busy.

When you weren’t filming for a mini-series, Joe was filming for a movie. When you had finished your press tour, it was his turn to go on one. You never seemed to have the timing right. And when you saw each other, it would be less than two weeks and when you did see each other the two of you were so exhausted with your hectic schedule, that you didn’t really do much. You two loved each other and were always happy to be together, there was no denying that, but you two knew that wasn’t the best way to live.

So after a long discussion (which may have lead to some tears of frustration and anger), you decided that it was best you two took some time off.

“Don’t worry,” you had whispered to him, your face inches from him as you both laid down on the bed, facing each other. “It won’t be long until we’re together again.”

“I’m pretty sure you just quoted a song to me,” Joe said, trying to make it light, but failing. “But you’re right, it won’t be long, I promise.”

Well, that time off lead to an official break up five months later. It sucked, to say the least, but it was for the best if you thought about it. It was better to end things in good terms than in bad.

After your break up, you would see each other at times, but it was either in parties of mutual friends or award shows. Your interactions were brief, catching up on your life and always making empty promises of seeing each other soon. As time passed, you saw each other less, but Joe always knew he would run into you again. After all, Hollywood was a small world.

—=—

A new year began, which meant award season was beginning. That year, you had your first nomination which was something you were beyond excited about. You couldn’t stop talking about and you were pretty sure you had annoyed everyone around you but you didn’t care. You were finally nominated for something that wasn’t for best picture or assembled cast or another award that you were grouped into. This was your moment, and you were going to enjoy it.

After so much anticipation, the night of the Golden Globes finally came and you were so excited. While, you didn’t have a date for that event, which was a little disappointing, it didn’t bother you too much. You weren’t seeing anybody, and bringing a date to an award show basically meant you were serious. Besides, you had your castmates by your side.

The red carpet felt like a blur, people shouting your name, cameras flashing around, too much smiling, and before you knew it, you were sitting down on a table, next to one of your co-stars, Evan. Opposite of the red carpet, the award show felt like it was being dragged forever. When your category finally came up, you had to dig your nails into your palms from stopping yourself from losing your control.

To utter your shock, the presenters, Lin-Manuel Miranda, and Emily Blunt said your name.

“Holy fuck,” you said under your breath.

“Damn right,” Evan, one of your co-stars said, grabbing your face, ready to kiss your cheek but that moment you moved slightly, so he got the corner of your mouth. “Ha, sorry about that, but congratulations.”

“Thank you,” you said, still feeling slightly dazed and accepted other congratulatory hugs from the people around. Somehow, you made your way to the stage and accepted your award, receiving hugs from both presenters. You thanked them and got in front of the mike, your cheeks hurting at how big your smile was.

“Well, it turns out my mom was wrong. Crying can take me far in life,” you said, making the audience laugh. “So, jokes on you Mom. I’m going to keep crying. Maybe that will get me an Oscar.”

Going through your speech was a little overwhelming, but you managed to make it through without embarrassing yourself. It did help a little that you made the audience laugh with your jokes. Once you finished your speech and walked out of the stage, your mind kept going back to that you had won an award for best supporting actress for a movie that you had to go through a tedious audition process and filming under the worst conditions which lead to you getting sick for a month, but it had been worth it.

You honestly had not expected to win, and you had also not expected for your former boyfriend to be watching the show.

—=—

“Oh, my God! Look, there’s Y/N,” Joe said excitedly when he saw actors name be called out and yours appeared in the screen. The camera then panned to you and Joe felt himself forgetting everything. Fuck, he forgot how beautiful you looked dressed up. He remembered the first time you went to a movie premiere and you had worn this beautiful red dress. He had such a hard time keeping his hands to himself. Well, he won't be having a hard time that night, he thought, a little miserably if he was honest.

“You think Y/N’s going to win?” Ben asked him, making Joe snap out of his trance and looked over at his friend.

“What? Of course, she’s going to win. Those other actresses don’t hold anything against her. I honestly feel sorry for them to be in the same category as her.”

“You don't think you're being a little biased?” Gwilym said doubtful but backtracked when he saw the dirty look Joe gave him. “Just a suggestion.”

“No, she’ll win,” he said confidently and to himself, She has to win or else what was the whole point of breaking up?

To say that Joe cheered loudly when your name was called, was an understatement. He almost left Ben and Allen deaf.

“I know her!” Joe shouted proudly to everyone around him. “Woohoo! Go, Y/N!”

Ben had to pull him back down to his seat, but that didn’t stop Joe from continuing his celebration. That was until he saw something he wished he hadn’t.

“Oh,” Joe said, his excitement for you dampening a little when he saw you get kissed by one of your male co-stars. He had seen him in quite a few of your stories, but he always assumed you two were just friends from your interactions.

Ben didn’t miss Joe faltered slightly. “You okay?”

“Of course,” Joe dismissed him and then gave him a big grin. “Told you she was going to win.”

Joe didn’t miss that you didn’t thank your male co-star, the one that kissed you, during your speech. So, it had to mean that, even if he was your date or boyfriend, it wasn’t that serious because you didn’t bother to acknowledge him. That time, Joe couldn’t hide his slight relief he felt for that. It was stupid for him to feel like that. You two had been broken up for over a year and of course, had been on a few dates with other people.

After your speech, Gwilym joked at Joe, “Maybe, at the after party you can give her a congratulatory kiss.”

“Maybe,” Joe laughed good naturally. He doubted that would happen with what he had seen on the screen.

“I think someone beat you to that,” Allen said, grinning, thinking the same thing. “I didn’t know she brought a date.”

Joe smiled slipped slightly, not happy that they were talking about you and your co-star.

“Did she mention anything to you?” Gwilym asked him.

“No, she did not,” Joe said because you two only talked if you ran to each other and the last time had been four months ago. He then clapped his hands. “Guy’s we’re being rude. Someone new is giving a speech.”

It wasn’t the most subtle change of topic but it worked since no one questioned him and did go back to paying attention to what was going on the screen. Joe wasn’t even paying attention, his mind kept going back to that kiss.

Something Joe would never admit to anyone, not even his new soulmate Ben, he always figured that you two would get back together at one point. That this was just a passing phase and that once you both got your shit together, you would get back together. But of course, that wasn’t realistic. 

So, Joe should not be as bothered as he was. He had said it before, but he was well aware you would go out on dates with guys, he’s seen some paparazzi photos. But, that little goblins inside of his head, kept pointing out there’s a difference to going out with someone for lunch to taking someone to an award show, where there were hundreds of cameras and people.

Stop it, he told himself. Don’t go there. Even if Y/N got into a serious relationship, she is not obligated to tell you.

But it would have been nice to hear from her and not find out through national TV, he thought slightly bitterly. And he went there. He looked around, really needing something strong to drink.

—=—

You were easy to spot. You had chosen to wear a bright yellow dress for that evening. You looked absolutely stunning and honestly, it made Joe a little nervous to go up to you. He had lost his train of thought when he had seen you first appear in the screen, he couldn’t imagine how he would react when he saw you in person and receive one of your warm smiles.

Unfortunately, avoiding you was not an option. It was just rude and also, he just really wanted to talk to you. You probably knew that he was there and he wouldn’t be surprised if you tried to find him if only to say hello.

So, his plan was that he would be able to put it off talking to you but no such luck. The second he stepped into the room, there you were, talking to Darren Criss. Joe felt a flash of annoyance when he saw your male co-star by your side, too close for it to be friendly.

“Maybe I should stick with you guys,” Joe said.

“Don't you want to find Y/N and congratulate her?” Ben said, who had seen her too.

“Later,” Joe waved him off. “She's probably busy talking to the press and then being praised by her co-stars.”

Ben looked at him doubtfully. “This isn’t about Even, right?”

“Who?”

Ben sighed in exasperation. “The guy that made out with her in national tv.”

“They did not make out,” Joe almost hissed. He then cleared his throat and gave Ben an innocent smile. “I will say hi. I'm not a jerk. I just want her to have her moment.”

Joe did end up saying hi to you much earlier than he expected because of course, you had to be with the people he had spent the majority of the night.

—=—

You would be lying if you didn't love the attention you were being given. All the congratulations and praises were really doing something to your ego. You probably won't be able to walk properly at the end of the night at how big it got.

Someone said your name from your left and you turned, smiling brightly when you saw that it was Rami and Lucy.

“Hi,” you said excitedly as if you hadn't seen Rami at backstage less than an hour ago. “Hi, Lucy,” you said, hugging her and letting her go to admire her dress. “You look gorgeous.”

“Oh, my God, Y/N,” she said, waving you off. “You're so kind, thank you. But look at you! You are stunning! And with that award, I've never seen you happier. Oh, and congratulations.”

While you were happy to see Rami and Lucy at the after party, you were a little disappointed that you still hadn't seen Joe. You had expected to find him easily, seeing that you had run into half of his Bohemian Rhapsody co-stars. If you didn’t know any better, you would think that he was avoiding. But why would he? The last time you spoke, you had parted in good terms (and even made an empty promise to see each other again).

“So, is Joe with you guys?” you asked, not bothering to be subtle about it.

“You haven’t seen him, yet?” Lucy frowned. “I thought you would have by now. I know he was super excited for you.”

“Well, nope, I haven’t seen him,” you said, not sure how you felt about that.

“Oh, look, there's Joe,” Lucy said, spotting him and called out his name. She had to do it a few times before she got his attention. He turned over to them, looking like a reindeer in headlights.

“I’ll leave you two,” Lucy said, giving you a quick hug and went off in the opposite direction.

“Hey there, stranger,” he said, making his way towards you. “Long time no see.”

“Joe,” you almost shouted, thrilled to see your former boyfriend and not so gently pushed some people to the side to reach Joe. Once you were at his proximity, there was a fraction of hesitation from your side, before you pulled him in a tight hug. He quickly reciprocated the action and wrapped his arms around your waist. You did your best to hug him but it was nearly impossible as you held your award.

God, you had missed him so much. You had no idea how happy you were to see him. Joe being there made the night even better.

“Congratulations,” he said to your hair making you laugh.

“Thank you,” you said and pulled away from the embrace but didn't let him go. “And congratulations to you too. Best Drama Picture and Best Actor.”

“Well, you should be congratulated Rami for the best actor...”

“Actually, I did,” you interrupted him. “When I was backstage I saw him and he was with me right now too.”

“Oh, right. But I will take Best Picture.”

“You know you shouldn't you sell yourself short. This wasn't a one man's show, it was a team effort. Without you guys, Rami wouldn't have had anything to work with. Just like Queen, every member is important and shouldn't be overlooked for the lead singer, or actor in your case.”

Joe smiled fondly at you.

“What?”

“You do realize we're arguing about an award that I didn't even win, when you, Y/N, won your first award ever? Unbelievable.”

“I know,” you said in disbelief, letting go of Joe and stared at your shiny award in wonder. “I know I would always joke that I was going win one of these one days, but I never really took it too seriously.”

“It’s like me when I would say I would go work out and never did.”

“Exactly, or like you always promised me that you were going to stop leaving your clothes on the floor of the bedroom and you never did.”

“Uh, no, I did stop doing that for like a month,” he defended himself but you weren't listening to him.

“And now, I have it and I have no clue what to do. Do you remember what I always said I would do after I one? Now that I have it, I can't remember my last name, let alone my plans of celebration.”

Joe coughed, suddenly looking uncomfortable. “Um, you had a few plans that involved us, or now just you and I guess someone else during the night.”

“Ah,” you said, catching his drift. “I guess I have to celebrate by myself.” You then smiled slyly at Joe. “Unless I can convince Ben to come home with me tonight.”

Joe scoffed. “Excuse me, Ben is coming with me tonight. Get your own man.”

You missed the look of instant regret on Joe's face at his choice of words as you were looking over to where Ben was with Gwilym.

“That's too bad,” you said in faux wistfulness. “Another night alone.”

Joe laughed. “Well, not that alone. You have a shiny award to keep you warm at night. But I have some good news.”

“What more can you make my day?”

“Um, another thing was that l I always promised that if you won your first award that I would take you out for burgers,” he said lightly.

“What do you mean? You’re still doing that,” you told him. “It was a pinky promise and you said those things are sacred. Are you backing out on our sacred oath?”

“I would never do that,” he said, smiling at you. “But I bet you have other people wanting to take you out. Friends, family, co-stars, lovers.” He raised his eyebrows and proceeded to give you an exaggerated wink.

“You forgot former lovers,” you reminded him, smiling.

“Wait. Am I a former lover?” Joe gasped.

“No, you were my long term booty call that I liked to spoon with sometimes.”

“Sometimes? I'm pretty sure you're talking about someone else because I recall that someone would get vicious when I didn't spoon them every night. I can't go out in public without shirt anymore because it will expose my battle scars.”

You laughed, unable to keep the charade anymore. “Okay, whatever, Joe. But the point is you made a sacred oath with me and I expect to have it done, or else I will take your first born, that was our deal.”

“Damn, I forgot about that part. What were thinking when we did that oath?”

“I’m pretty sure we were drunk,” you recalled.

“You really want to spend time with me? An average joe?” he asked teasingly.

“Oh my God,” you groaned, burying your free hand in your face. “You know what, I don’t want to anymore. I think I know why we broke up.”

“Because you don’t have a sense of humor?”

“Because of your shitty sense of humor,” you corrected him, poking his shoulder, making him laugh.

“I recall you loving me humor, especially when we were getting it on,” Joe teased you, which made your cheeks heat up. He laughed and shook his hand. “I'm kidding, I'm kidding.”

“Oh, come on, Joe. I know we haven’t really talked lately, but I mean, I’ll always make time for you,” you said, trying not to sound pushy. You were disappointed that he didn’t seem to want to have lunch with you. Maybe that was it. All your friendliness had disappeared with all that time apart and what was left was just old memories between the two of you.

“Listen, I feel bad for taking all your time. You should go and be with your date.”

“Date?” You frowned and looked around them as if your date would appear out of thin air. “What date? I didn’t bring a date tonight. I went stag tonight. I couldn’t even get my brother to be my date.”

“Oh,” Joe said, looking confused and slightly uncomfortable. “I’m sorry, I just assumed, he was your date.” He pointed to Evan. “I mean, he kinda kissed you in live television.”

“Oh my God. You saw that?” you said, feeling slightly mortified. “No, way. Oh my God, I am going to get an earful from my mom and Amy. I’ve been telling them that he and I are just friends so that is not going to help.”

“Yeah,” Joe said, feeling slightly awkward. “I would find it hard to believe it too since some people don’t think to go kissing their friends.”

“But he didn’t kiss me,” you said quickly, realizing you hadn’t clarified the situation.

“Really?” Joe didn't seem to believe you but seemed to be shrugging it off as if it was no big deal. “It doesn't matter. Hell, I would’ve kissed Rami if I had been there.”

“It looked like he kissed me but he didn't. He was going to kiss my cheek but then I moved so he kissed the corner of my mouth.” You tried to laugh it off, but you cringed at how forced it was.

“Oh,” Joe said and then laughed, probably more for your expense.

“So how’s your date?” you asked jokingly, trying to move on from the weirdness you created.

“No, I didn’t bring a date,” Joe said seriously. “Just like you, I went stag.”

“No, I know that,” you said and suddenly felt stupid for making the joke in the first place. God, why were you being like this with Joe right now? It was Joe, you’ve done really stupid things in front of him and never got as tongue-tied like you were right now. “I meant, like where’s Ben, you know, your date? Cause you’re in a committed relationship with him right now?”

“Oh,” Joe said, finally getting it and laughing. “Ben, of course. No, he, unfortunately, didn’t want to be my date. He said that he felt like we needed space. Which is ridiculous. How much space does he need than when I was in Japan and he was off in Europe?”

“Well, don’t give him too much space or else you’ll end up breaking up like us,” you joked which lead to you and Joe fall in an awkward silence. Great, this was the second time you made it awkward. You shouldn’t be allowed to speak anymore.

“God, this is weird, right?” Joe said, deciding to be honest. You and Joe had always been honest with each other, even before you started dating, so why stop now?

“Yeah, it is,” you agreed, relieved that you weren’t the only one that felt like that. “Why is this weird? Like we need to keep talking or else it just gets weird. Why?”

“I have no idea,” he admitted. “Maybe its because it has been a while and I don't know, I guess it's expected for exes to not get along as well as we do. I mean, should we start fighting? Should I point out all the things annoyed me of you when we were together?”

“I really don't think that's going to make things better,” you said, frowning but then laughed. “Although you now peaked my interest on your last sentence. What did you find annoying about me?”

Joe looked like he regretted talking, and not so smoothly said, “How beautiful you were when you woke up in the morning. It just annoyed me because I looked like an insane person with hair all over the place while you looked red carpet ready. Honestly, it wasn't fair.”

“Mhm,” you humored him. “Poor you having to deal with me.”

“The things we do when we’re in love,” he said dramatically.

“Yeah,” you said sadly. “The very stupid things we do when we’re in love.”

That time when you fell silent, it wasn’t awkward. It was bittersweet. You had no idea what Joe was thinking, he wore a deep look of concentration and when you were about to say something, he spoke first.

“Screw being bitter exes,” he said. “I like this thing we have. And if we’re awkward at times? That’s fine. Better that than us hating each other.”

“Yeah, no, I mean, yes, I agree,” you said enthusiastically.

“Great, so are you free tomorrow around one o’clock?”

“Um, I think so,” you said, thinking of any plans that you had for the next day. “Yes, yes I am free.”

“Great. I happen to owe you a cheeseburger with avocado and I would like to cash it in tomorrow.”

You laughed and nodded. “Great, then it's a date.”

Joe knew you mean it platonically but he felt a little pleasure of hearing you say that. Didn’t matter if was just you two getting together for a celebratory burger, there was no denying you two had really missed each other.

For the rest of the night, you two didn’t interact, both occupied with your group of friends, but that was alright. You were going to see each other the next day and hopefully, things wouldn’t be as awkward as it was tonight and it wouldn’t be long for you two to get back in your old rhythm.

Like Joe had learned a long time ago, you never really knew what to expect when it came to love and relationships.

College Friends

A/N: Hi everybody! And SURPRISE  @rhapsodyrecs  ! I’m your secret author for @yourlocalmusicalprostitute Possessed By Love Event! I hope you (and everybody else) enjoys it!

 Pairing: Joe Mazzello x fem!reader

Warnings: Implied smut (nothing explicit, but just in case), references to drinking, cursing? (I honestly don’t remember if I put any in there or not,but better safe than sorry), bed-sharing 

You threw a bag of chips into the cart and then looked around for more snacks.

“I think we’re good on snacks,” Kodi chuckled.

“Not if Marcus is coming,” you replied, another bag of chips making its way into the cart.

“Alright, good point, but we can make a trip to the store once we get there.”

You and a group of friends from college were going on an extended weekend trip to the beach, staying at an AirBnB. You were leaving in the morning and you were so excited. You needed time away from work.

“Alright, when we get back to my place, we’ll pack it the van,” Kodi told you after you got everything in your car from the store. You’d rented a van so you could all fit in one car.

“Sounds good to me. What time are we going to leave in the morning?”

“I think around 8, but I told Sahara 9 so that she might actually be on time.”

You laughed.  

The two of you talked about how much fun the five you would be having at the beach.

“I’m ready to just goooo,” Kodi whined as you puled into the parking lot of her building. “Work has been so shitty lately.”

“I know,” you told her as you parked next to the van. “You deserved that promotion.”

“Tell me about it. Whatever. I just want to go to the beach and get drunk.”

“Two things I can help with, don’t you worry.”

“And maybe get laid.”

“Well, let’s see how drunk we get.”

You and Kodi laughed as you got out of the car. The two of you transferred your groceries from your car to the van when somebody came up and grabbed your hips.

You jumped and spun around with a scream, ready to attack the person.

“Hey! Hey, calm down!” The voice was laughing as you swung your arms, making minimal contact.

You met eyes with your ‘attacker’ and gasped for a moment at that familiar hazel. “Joe?”

He held his arms out for a hug, but you didn’t go into them. Kodi did though, hugging him tight.

“Joe! What are you doing back in town?!”

“I just wrapped on a movie and thought I’d come see you guys!” Joe pulled away from Kodi and looked at you with a big grin.

“So Mister Hollywood is gracing us with his presence once again, huh?” You replied with an eye roll.

“Ah, Y/N, great to see you, too.”

Joe Mazzello. The unaccounted for sixth member of your college friend group.

The six of you had met and made a study group for your Psych 101 class freshmen year. After that, you were inseparable. The six of you had stayed friends since you all had left school, which was actually a surprise to all of you, but somehow it had worked.

“How long are you in town?” Kodi asked.

“Just this week, so I wanted to see if you guys were doing anything this weekend and…”

“Aw shucks, Joey, we’re actually going to be out of town this weekend,” you clicked your tongue. Joe’s face fell and Kodi elbowed you in the side.

“Oh, well, that’s okay, maybe I can hang out with Marcus and…” Joe stopped talking at the look on Kodi’s face.

“We’re actually going with them too, we sort of threw this together last minute long weekend to the beach,” Kodi gave Joe a half smile. “We didn’t know you’d be home otherwise we would’ve asked you!” Kodi started spewing out excuses but Joe held his hand up.

“Kodi, it’s alright I can…”

“Well,” Kodi looked at you and then back to Joe. “Give us one sec,” she grabbed your arm and then pulled you out of ear shot of Joe.

“No,”you told her, already knowing where the conversation was going.

“Come ON, Y/N. Joe’s one of our friends too.”

You scoffed, not looking at her.

“There’s room for Joe at the Air BnB and he’ll make it fun! You guys used to be so close. What happened?”

You sighed.

Yes, you and Joe had been close. Until he slept with your roommate at the end of freshman year even though the two of you had spent the entire semester flirting and you had thought you’d made it clear that you liked him. You hadn’t wanted to mess up the group dynamic so you’d never said anything, but you had stopped hanging with Joe just the two of you.

“I just want to have fun, alright? And if Joe comes people will probably stop us and want pictures and…”

“Stop. When was the last time any of that happened?”

You paused to honestly try and think of a time, but couldn’t think of one.

"Come on, we haven’t seen him in like a year. Please?”

You thought about it and looked back at Joe, who had started grabbing bags of groceries out the car. For the most part, yes, he was a good guy. Maybe you’d been too hard on him.

“Fine, let’s invite him.”

“Yes!” Kodi hugged you and gave you a kiss on the cheek. She turned back to Joe and almost ran to him. You followed slowly behind her.

“So, Joe, if you’re not doing anything this weekend, would you want to come with us?”

Joe’s face lit up. “Really?” He looked to you.

You nodded reluctantly.

“Yeah! I’d uh…I would love to come. Only if everybody’s okay with it,” he replied, still looking at you.

“Yeah, I’m fine. We should probably get this stuff inside.” You grabbed the 24 pack of water and headed inside.

You went home and ran over your packing list one more time. You were pretty sure you had everything. You opened your suitcase and saw your old swim suit that you had grabbed. You took it out and grabbed your favorite two piece instead. If Joe was coming, you were going to let him know what he was missing out on.

“I’m here!” Sahara came running into the kitchen the next morning. “I’m sorry I’m late but I have a good reason!” She practically skidded to a stop. She was the last to arrive, so everybody was sitting at the kitchen table or leaning against the counter.

“You’re not actually,” Kodi smiled at you, knowing she’d done the right thing by telling Sahara an hour earlier than you should have.

“What do you…?” Sahara looked around when she noticed Joe leaning against the counter drinking coffee. Sahara squealed and threw herself in Joe’s arms.

“Oof!” Joe laughed as he hugged her back. “Well hi.”

“When did you get here?! How was filming? Are you coming with us? Is…?”

“Sa, sh…it’s waaaay too early for that,” Marcus grumbled.

“I don’t even care! I’m so excited that you’re here!”

Everybody (except you) laughed and Joe let her go.

“We should get everybody’s bags in the car,” Dylan clapped his hands together. Everybody grabbed their bags and headed out to the van. Except you and Joe because your bags were already in the car.

You could feel the tension in the kitchen grow once you realized that the two of you were alone.

Joe cleared his throat. “Y/N, I um…thanks for inviting me.”

“Well, it was Kodi’s idea,” you told him as you set your coffee cup in the sink.

“Yeah, but you also agreed to it. I know we’ve had…” Joe gestured as if he were going to catch what he was trying to say. “A falling out. And I’m not sure what exactly happened but, I’m hoping that maybe we can…mend things?”

You stared at him, trying to come up with a response. What the hell did he mean he didn’t know what he did?

“How can you…?”

“Hey! Are you two ready?!” Kodi yelled in to the two of you.

“Let’s get going,” you blew past Joe to join your friends. This was going to be a long weekend.

The trip to the Air BnB was about a four hour drive. Kodi drove the whole way and you were in the passenger seat. Everybody else was piled into the back of the van.

The ride wasn’t horrible. Actually, it was pretty fun. Joe always had a way of making everybody laugh, even when you tried not to.

Once you got there, you all split up and took rooms. The only problem was there were only 5 beds.

“Where’s Joe going to sleep?” Kodi asked as she and Sahara sat on your bed, watching you unpack some things after.

“Not here,” you told her.

“I know that, but Dylan and Marcus’ room only have single beds.”

“Then he can sleep on the floor.”

“Oh stop it. We’ll figure it out. So, Y/N,” Sahara exchanged a look with Kodi before looking at you. “Are you ever going to tell us what happened to you and Joe?”

You grabbed your swimsuit out of your suitcase. “Nothing, we just don’t click anymore. Now, can we go the beach and get drunk?”

The three men had already gone out and they were in the water when you and the other women came out with your beach towels and your tumblers full of drinks.

As you started laying your towel down, you noticed Joe was staring at you.

“Can I help you, Mazzello?” You called out to him.

The rest of the day was relaxing, but that night, you were all going to go out to dinner. You put on the dress that you had packed. It was tight and hugged your curves the way that you loved. You smiled to yourself as you finished your makeup in the mirror.

“Y/N,” there was a knock at the door and then it opened to reveal Joe, in a button down and khaki shorts. “Whoa.”

“What?” You looked down at yourself to make sure that your dress hadn’t bunched up or anything.

“Nothing, you just,” Joe cleared his throat. “You just look nice is all.”

You narrowed your eyes, thinking that maybe he was messing with you. “As opposed to how I normally look?”

Joe’s eyes widened comically before he back tracked. “No! No that’s not what I meant. You always…I…” Joe breathed deeply through his nose.

“Whatever, let’s just go, alright?” You pushed past him and into the living room where the rest of your friends were waiting.

Dinner was fine, nothing extreme happened, but you kept catching Joe’s eye. He would give you shy little smile and then you’d look away. But that damn little smile gave you little butterflies in your stomach. You were a little annoyed with yourself. Yes, your crush on him never actually went away. And sure he was cute. And when you forgot about him messing with you all of freshman year, you could admire how funny and nice and sweet he was. He…

“Y/N?” Kodi waved a hand in front of your face.

“Hm?” You blinked at her.

“I asked if you were ready to go.”

“Oh! Yeah, sure.”

The six of you walked back to house.

“So, where is Joe going to sleep?” Dylan asked after another hour or so of everybody drinking in the living room.

“I mean, Y/N is kinda the only one that has room,” Sahara said sheepishly.

You frowned. “I am?”

“Yeah, Marcus and Dylan only have 2 single beds, me and Sahara are sharing the other double.”

“It’s fine, you guys, I can sleep on the couch,” Joe offered.

Everybody looked at you, silently asking if you were actually going to make him sleep on the couch. You hated yourself for what you were about to offer.

“No, Joe, you…shouldn’t have to sleep on the couch,” you grumbled. “We can share the bed.”

“Y/N, you don’t have have to do that. Seriously, I’m fine with…”

“No, it’s fine just…give me a minute to get ready for bed,” you stood up and walked up the stairs to get ready to sleep. That’s all that was going to happen. Sleep.

You were in bed, scrolling through your phone fifteen minutes later when Joe walked in with his bag. He was wearing a plain blue t-shirt and a pair of boxers. You swallowed. It all seemed so…domestic. And you hated that you still wanted that with him.

“Hey, I uh…just wanted to thank you, again.”

“Not a big deal.”

Joe yawned. He then got into bed on the other side of the bed than you. “We can make a wall of pillows or something.”

“It’s fine, let’s just get some sleep,” you told him as you watched him plug his phone in. Then you turned the light off, ready to pretend that you weren’t (still) attracted to the guy you were in bed with.

“Good night, Y/N.”

“Night, Joe.”

You listened as Joe’s breathing evened out and it didn’t take long for you to fall asleep after that.

The next morning, your alarm went off. You turned it off and you woke up warm and happy. You hummed and moved closer to the source of warmth. You felt the arms around your waist tighten.

“Good morning to to you too, sweetheart,” you heard in you ear. His voice was husky with sleep.

You giggled. And then you realized who that was. You rolled over and looked at Joe. His eyes were still closed and the sun was peeking through a small gap in the window curtains, hitting his hair so it was a copper color. It was beautiful. God, why did have to sleep with Shari? You could’ve been waking up to this for years. Who knows if you’d still be together or not, but damn your time together probably would’ve been great.

“Are you staring at me?”

“I usually don’t wake up with movie stars in my bed, so I’m enjoying it while I can.”

Joe laughed and opened his eyes. You watched him blink a couple time before his eyes adjusted. Once they did, he lifted on corner of his mouth. “Morning.”

“Morning. Want to tell me why you’ve got your arms around me?”

“Want to tell me why you haven’t moved from out of my arms since you’ve been awake for like ten minutes?”

You tired to come up with a response, but nothing came. “Touche,” you said, but still made no effort to move.

“So, are you going to tell me why you stopped liking me the summer after freshman year or am I supposed to guess?”

“I didn’t stop liking you. You just…hurt me.” You decided to be honest since Joe was asking you point blank. You figured it was time for the two of you to talk about it since it was just the two of you.

“I did?” The look on Joe’s face was hurt, like he really didn’t know what you meant. “What did I do?”

“You slept with Shari.”

Joe’s brow furrowed. “Who?”

You rolled your eyes. He didn’t even remember sleeping with her? “Shari? My roommate freshman year?”

Joe frowned and shook his head, still not understanding what you were saying.

“Come on, Joe. Shari? She looked like she got choked out the morning after you slept with her.”

“Whoa! I never slept with your roommate.”

“Yes you did. We were all at Peter’s party and you left to get us refills and…”

“I came back and you were gone.”

“I went to the bathroom! I tried to find you for like twenty minutes. Then I saw Kodi, and she was drunk, so I took her back to her room.”

“I went back to my room after I couldn’t find you, I swear.”

You shook your head with a bitter chuckle. Why was he lying about it?

“Joe, it’s fine, I mean, I thought that we’d kinda had something over the semester but shit happens and…”

“Y/N,” Joe squeezed your hip. “I thought that we had something, too. And then, by the time I got the courage to ask you out, you…started acting weird. Like you didn’t want to be around me anymore. I thought that I had done something.”

“You did! You slept with Shari!”

“But I didn’t!”

“Yes you did! I spent the night with Kodi and when I went back to my room the next morning, Shari had hickies ALL over her neck and when I asked her she said it was ‘Joe from her film class’,” you used air quotes. “You guys had ‘American History in Film’ together.”

Joe stared at you for a long moment, his face screwed up in confusion. “I honestly don’t…” then you could see the realization hit Joe like a truck.

But it wasn’t the realization that you thought.

“There were two Joes in that film class.”

You blinked at him a couple times. “What?”

“There were two Joes! There was me and there was another guy named Joe that eyed Shari all the time!”

“I…you…what?” You repeated.

Joe watched you and then started laughing. Full on laughing. “So this whole time you’ve been mad at me because another guy got laid?”

Now you felt like an idiot. You’d been holding onto this stupid grudge for years and it was for nothing?!

“Well, I…I thought that…” you mumbled, trailing off because you couldn’t really think of what to say. You felt Joe was still laughing at you, but you rested your forehead on his chest so that you didn’t have to look at him.

“I’m so sorry,” you told him. “I can’t believe I was so bitter about something that didn’t even happen. And I didn’t even ask you! God, I’m sorry!”

Joe was still chuckling to himself and he slid one hand up and rubbed your back.

“So, if I’d asked you back then on a date, would you have said yes?”

You bit the inside of your cheek to keep from beaming. Then you looked up at him.

“Yeah, I would have.”

Joe’s face lit up and you decided that you really like that look on him. “What if I asked you for a kiss?”

“Now or then?”

Joe glanced down to your lips and then back up to your eyes. “Now.”

“I’d say yes,” you breathed out. You responded without even thinking about it.

Joe put his hand on your cheek and rubbed under your eye for a moment before he leaned in and your lips met.

You closed your eyes as a heat spread through you that you hadn’t felt for a while. Joe’s lips slid against yours and you wrapped your fingers in his hair, pulling him closer and deepening the kiss.

Joe groaned and then licked his way into your mouth. The two of you moving against each other made the bed squeak a couple times.  

You pulled a way for a moment to catch your breath. You kept your eyes closed, but still smiled.

“We should’ve done that a long time ago.”

“I think we’ve got some lost time to make up for,” Joe lifted your chin and you opened your eyes to look at him. “But only if you’re up for it.”

“THESE WALLS ARE REALLY THIN YOU GUYS!” Sahara’s voice came through the wall.

You looked at each other with wide eyes before Joe snorted and the two of you started giggling to each other.

“Maybe once we get home, before Mr. Hollywood needs to get back to work.”

“I’m going to hold you to that,” Joe pecked your lips one more time. “But until then, can I see you that two piece again?” He waggled his eyes brows.

You scoffed and pushed his chest. “Don’t press your luck, Mazzello.”

Joe grabbed your hand and brought it up to his lips. “I wouldn’t dream of it. Now that I’ve got you, I won’t be letting go anytime soon.”

You liked the sound of that.

Brian:

Brian had the whole day planned out! A nice breakfast to wake up then there would be a cute goose chase around your house and the city (going from your first date, first time he said 'I love you', first time you guys kissed, made love, had an argument {which funnily enough was the cafe you both had your first date at}, first time you made love etc.). THEN, after about 5 or so hours (cuz he would know the goose chase would be over), he'd ring you to get dressed up nicely but still comfortable (casual formal) and he'd order a cab to be out the front and to drive you to a nice little quiet restaurant, you'd talk about your day and then afterwards he take you to the car (that he used to get to and from the studio) and he'd drive you to his favorite spot where you can see the ENTIRE night sky and he'd have a telescope and books and even some maps of the constellations and after a little while (and giving you his jacket) he'd just kind of look at you and smile that award winning smile:

Brian: 'marry me (Y/n)?'

You: 'p-pardon?'

Brian pulling out a blue velvet box and showing the small ring inside: 'you are the love of my life, would you do me the great honor in becoming Mr. /Mrs. May?'

You probably with tears in your eyes: 'yes!'

Then you would kiss a hug and then make love under the stars!! (It's a secluded area its okay)

John:

Queen would be playing on stage, Deaky doing his little bobbing dancing and stuff and after a while Freddie would be wiping sweat away and be like, 'our little Deacon has something to say!!' And he'd pass the mic to John and he'd look to the crowd as they'd cheer and stuff:

John: 'um, okay, thank you for tonight first of all!' *crowd cheers* 'but um, I've had something special in mind for a while, can I please call my lovely partner (Y/n) to the stage!'

Freddie would be guiding you one stage patting your hand that was linked in his arm and saying 'it's okay he's got this under control' and stuff. You'd stand in front of John and John would pass his bass to Freddie who put it in a safe place:

John smiling: 'hello love'

You probably giggling or something idk: 'hello'

John: 'I have called you here because of something special' *deep breath* 'I have loved you since the day I met you, you have been my one and only and my only one, you have been there through everything with me, through breakdowns and tears, through the ups and the downs and through Rogers fanatics' *que Roger yelling a 'HEY' in the background* 'and I wanted to ask you something very important and dear to my heart' *the crowd cheers knowing what he's gonna do as John pulls out a ring from his back pocket and getting on one knee* *also que Roger doing a drum roll in the background making everything laugh and John roll his eyes* 'my sunshine, would you do me the absolute favor of becoming my husband/wife?'

You probably have tears in your eyes and can't string a sentence together so you just nod constantly.

John: 'love please use your voice'

You: 'YES!' *que everyone cheering*

John would exhale SO LOUDLY, he'd stand up, put the ring on your finger and then lift you from your waist and twirl you around on stage while you giggled and then when he put you down again you would immediately kiss him and John being John would be cute and dip you down while still kissing making you both giggle. You'd finally walk off stage giddy and excited as Freddie got his mic back (including the stand) and giving John and large bear hug.

Freddie: 'well that was lovely dearies! Now! To commemorate this occasion! I present to you! You're My Best Friend!' *que the crowd going mad and you crying on the sidelines*

Roger:

Y'all are at home watching some quiet tv all cuddled into each other and shit probably watching some reality tv show where the winner wins £1000 or whatever, and you're talking together every now and then, the whole 'would we have a family?' 'Yes' 'how many kids' 'seventeen hundred' 'ROGER' 'WHAT' 'that'll hurt', and all of that, and it kind of goes silent and Roger excuses himself to go pee. Rog leaves to do his business and this gives you the moment 👀, you race up to the bedroom, grab the red box in your side of the drawers and run back down to the lounge and sit where you previously were sitting. Rog comes back after a little while and you go back to cuddling and sitting in comfortable silence for a few minutes before you become restless:

You: 'Rog'

Roger: 'yeah babe?'

You, taking in a deep breath, getting off the couch and getting on one knee in front of him pulling the red box and opening it to show a gold band: 'marry me?'

Roger probably out of breath not knowing what to do: 'I- um- but- aren't- I- but-'

You: 'it's too early in our relationship isn't it? I'm sorry, f-forget I asked' *goes to put ring away*

Roger: 'no no no no!' *takes a beautifully carved diamond ring out of his jumper pocket with a large grin* 'I just didn't expect you to ask first. Marry me?'

Now it's your turn to be speechless. Which you both end up laughing at and shedding a few tears.

Obviously you say yes.

Obviously he says yes.

You cuddle.

Cry.

Look at your rings.

Maybe make love if that's what you want. Rog is definitely up to that.

Rami:

Dinner date, beautiful romantic dinner, a rose in the middle of the table adorned with stark white cloth, the most beautiful view of the sunset to your side and the most perfect view in front of you, Rami, he had asked you on a date to this place as an apology for being away for so long with filming. You of course said it was fine and he didn't need to apologies but he won that argument nonetheless and you ended up here. The best (favorite food) you have ever had and your favorite wine choice. You excused yourself for the bathroom to 'freshen up' which was Rami's cue; he set the red box on you (clean) plate, lid open with a beautiful ring inside, the jewel wasn't too big or too small and it was the perfect representation of you yourself and that's why Rami loved it so much. Rami had talked to the chef's before you two got to the restaurant saying he was proposing and made sure that your seating was secluded as well as under the box said 'Marry me love of my life?' in red. You'd walk back:

You chuckling with a confused look: 'what's this?'

Rami: 'read it'

You: *reads it and goes through the stages of shock, confusion, and then shock again* 'R-Rami'

Rami: 'please? You're the love of my life and I can't not see you in my life as you do I, I love you ever so much and you have supported me through everything, Bohemian Rhapsody, Mr. Robot, even James Bond! Please' *que puppy dog eyes as well as a pleading look*

You nodding with tears in your eyes: 'yes! Yes of course a million times yes!' *crying, smiling. You take the ring out and put it on chuckling* 'is the ring edible or is it just the writing?' *sly grin*

Rami: 'what you're wearing is my desert if that's what you're asking' *wink*

You: *blush*

Needless to say; it was a long night. The ring stayed on the bedside table; both of you not wanting to lose it between the sheets or anything.

Ben:

You two would be at the soccer match 'of the year', whoever against England, you didn't pay attention too much; you tried to honest to god you did, but your head still just didn't want to wrap around it that tiny bit. So you mostly sat on your phone through the game until Ben would shake your shoulder with excitement as his team won another goal.

Ben: 'they're winning! They're gonna win (Y/n)!'

You: 'yay!' *Ben goes back to watching the game and you go back to playing on your phone*

Time soon slowly crawled forward, Bens team won (which lead to him picking you up and swinging you around out of excitement) before the announcer came on.

Announcer: 'with that perfect win I believe we have someone in the crowd wanting to ask something!'

Someone comes up to Ben and hands him a microphone (he's wringing his hands while holding it because he's so nervous)

Ben: 'w-well, (Y/n), you're my best friend, the person I want to stay with for the rest of my life. And I've been meaning to ask you this for a while' *turns and holds a hand out to the pitch; both soccer teams now had their shirts off and had their arms linked over each other's shoulders (even if they were from the other team yes) and each letter was painted on their back spelling out 'Will you Marry me?'*

You: *probably having a hand over your mouth in shock you look back to Ben who's now on one knee and holding the beautiful ring you had been eyeing for the past four months* 'YES'

Ben breathing a sigh of relief and standing up: 'THEY SAID YES' *into the mic, queuing the crowd to go in an ecstatic uproar, even the soccer players whooped, hollered and jumped on each other as Ben spun you around and kissed you*

Joe:

Joe is full into the cliché stuff right? He'd do the whole 'put the ring in the cupcake/cake' idea; thinking it was just that of a good idea.

You come home from work exhausted, someone got a raise, someone else got a promotion, one of the seniors was leaving and god forbid someone else had to bring their child. Today was not a day you wanted to keep. So you walked into the house mopping slightly as you put your shoes in their respective place and called out to Joe.

You: 'JOEY'

Joe: 'KITCHEN'

You: *walks into kitchen and coughs slightly* 'alright mister, the gig is up, what are you making? Smells like dead rats in here my lord'

Joe, smiling awkwardly and trying to wave some gray smoke away from the smoke alarms: 'nothing dear! Just wanted to make something for you for when you get home and well! You're home!'

You: 'mm hmm, okay now tell me the real reason why you're making a burnt cake'

Joe: 'I'm not making a burnt cake!'

You: 'you're making something burnt that's for sure'

Joe pulling out three trays of vanilla and chocolate muffins: 'they're muffins you uncultured swine'

You: 'they don't look that bad honestly'

Joe all giddy and shit: 'I know! Let's put them on the rack and wait for them to cool before decorating?'

You: 'sure!'

You both started taking out the muffins and putting them on racks and plates before heading to the lounge room where Joe gave you a butt load of massages, head rubs, and let you vent about your day already knowing that if you kept it all in you would be in a worse mood tomorrow; you ended up falling asleep while Joe was giving you a head/neck massage and M*A*S*H* played in the background. Taking this time to his advantage Joe set to work and started decorating the cupcakes and arranging them; each with one letter accommodating to 'marry me?', an arrow pointing down and the cupcake with the ring in it. Made especially for you with all of his love. Only an hour or two passed before you woke up and went in search for Joe before coming across him napping on the kitchen floor. Reading the message made you giggle, chuckle, then laugh and then tear up with joy, even though Joe was asleep against the kitchen counters it was still cute. You took the muffin with the ring in it and took out said ring with some delicate handy work before washing the ring, putting it on your finger, muttering a small 'yes' to yourself and placing said muffin back in its rightful place; wanting to play a small prank/game on Joe to see how long it took him to realize you had the ring on.

Joe did wake up about half an hour later and found you sitting in the lounge room reading a magazine.

Joe: 'babe follow me!'

You, putting down your magazine knowing exactly what would happen: 'what's up babe?'

Joe leading you into the kitchen and pointing to the muffins with a giddy smile: *giddy smile*

You smiling widely with your hands over your mouth (making sure the ring was on display): 'babe!'

Joe: 'mmmmmmmmmm?' *getting a little nervous*

You: 'yes!'

Joe letting out an audible breath he didn't realize his was holding in: 'oh thank fuck'

You went for the cupcake (already knowing what was meant to be inside) and quickly (but slowly) started to nibble and take apart the muffin.

You: 'Joey? Baby? Do you have the ring?'

Joe: 'huh? N-no it's meant to be in the muffin' *starting to go pale*

You: 'it isn't in their baby' *faking a sad tone*

Joe, coming over and looking everything in the cupcake and around on the counter: 'what? But I made sure it was in there, there is nowhere else it should be!' *looking around frantically*

You: 'Joey'

Joe: *still looking around worried*

You: 'Joey!'

Joe: *still the same thing*

You: 'JOSEPH'

Joe: 'WHAT' *turns to look at you as you hold up your hand with the ring on it*

You: 'I've got it, its okay baby' *large giddy grin.

Joey: 'b-but...HOW!?'

You: 'I came up here after my nap and saw you asleep on the floor so I didn't want to wake you up, I saw the muffins and took out the ring and made sure to make it look like it was before. I'm sorry baby I didn't mean to frighten you so much' *cupping Joes face near the end of your sentence*

Joe grabbing your hand and making sure the ring is on your finger: 'I-is that a yes?'

You: 'yes Joey of course a thousand times yes!'

Joe: 'oh thank god!'

You with a giddy smile as you lean in wrapping your arms around his shoulders, 'I love you Joey'

Joe: 'I love you too babe but you are definitely getting a punishment for that act you played' *smacks your butt playfully making you giggle and bite your lip*

Obviously you can tell what Joe did to you for the rest of the day and even into the really early morning ;).

Gwilym:

Dog Park.

You and Gwil would go to a cute little Dog Park with your pup and you'd play together and have fun and when you take a breather on the bench Gwil pops the question.

Gwil: 'have...have you thought of a future with me?'

You: 'of course, I always have'

Gwil pulling out the ring: 'then can we get it going?'

You smiling while looking at the ring and nodding: 'yes'

Gwil would smile, kiss you and then put the ring on your finger and then you'd go home and cuddle.

((I'm sorry Gwils is so short, I couldn't think of much for him besides the dog park))

Lucy:

Drunk on wine she would pop the question suddenly. You two would be having a lazy day in, facemasks and bubble baths and everything else; you two would be sitting in the lounge room (finished with your little facials and bubble bath and scrubs) drinking wine and watching crap telly.

Lucy: 'love'

You: 'mmmmm yes?'

Lucy looking at you with a drunken smile: 'marry me?'

You giggling: 'of course babe!' *goes in for a hug but ends up empty handed as Lucy walked off into the bedroom* 'love!?'

Lucy coming back in with the ring: 'here you go" *giggling*

You: 'I-I didn't know you were being serious'

Lucy: 'of course I was!'

You giggling and taking the ring with tears in your eyes: 'I love it babe, thank you'
