Saw your post that you might be willing to do a part two to "a phantom face" if there's interest - and count me as interested! I really liked the premise so I would love if you continued it 💕❤️.

Of course! First of all, thank you so much for reaching out :) I genuinely love it when you guys tell me what you think of my stories (support your local writer by commenting on their fic! Something even as simple as a "good job!" will do! It means more than you know!). My inbox is open for requests, but also feel free to send me any Owl House / Wittebane brothers-related thoughts (or thots ;) ) you have. I may not be able to respond to them all as soon as I'd like because of final exams, but I genuinely really appreciate them and will respond as soon as I can!

Second, thank you so much for expressing interest in "a Phantom Face"! I already have a general idea of where I want to take the APF story. All I need to do is just sit down and actually write the thing. Unfortunately, I probably won't be able to start that phase until late May because of my exams. Then nearly immediately after that (because ain't that just the way) I'm having surgery on my wisdom teeth and will be out of it for a couple days. I'm so sorry for the delay, but I promise that there's more coming! Thank you so much for bearing with me and being patient.

Finally, I just want to say that I've really seen such growth in this little Belos simp community of ours. When I first started this blog, my intention was to help produce content for fellow Belos simps like me and (hopefully) inspire more blogs to start writing as well. Since then, whether from the new Owl House episodes or from seeing other content out there, other people have started writing as well! Not only that, but I've also seen an incredible increase in followers (I'm at 37 now! 🥹), and in simps just interacting with my posts in general. My "Of Snails and Flowers" fic just passed the 100 notes mark which I am absolutely THRILLED about! I'm so incredibly happy that I can make content that you guys enjoy <3 I love you all very much and, again, thank you so much for your patience! Happy simping!

If You Were in These Arms -- Chapter 3

Pairings: Roger Taylor x fem!reader, Brian May x fem!reader

Summary: You're pregnant with Roger's baby, but sometimes things don't work out as planned. Sometimes you find more support in your best friend than the child's father. But what if that turns out not to be as bad as it seems?

Tags: modern!AU, pregnancy, fluff, a bit of angst

Words: 1,764

A/N: How long has it been since I updated this fic? September? At least I'm back now with a new chapter for you guys! Sorry I left you hanging for so long and I feel bad for saying there probably won't be another update until July or so because I have to study for tons of exams.

Chapter 1 || Chapter 2

Tip me if you want!

"Sorry Robin, I'm in a hurry," Brian apologized as he scrambled to collect his folders and books. "Is it urgent?"

The boy shook his head. "No no, it's fine! It's only about the trip to the planetarium in two weeks."

Brian gave him a smile as he swung his bag over his shoulder. "Good. You can ask me about it on Monday before class, okay?"

"Okay, no problem. Have a nice weekend, Mr May!" The student waved and rushed out of the classroom.

He felt guilty for cutting him off, but Robin didn't seem to be mad at him. He was lucky his students accepted that teachers have a private life too. Besides, he really was in a hurry - for you. And he had something special planned for today. He got into the car and made his way to your boutique to pick you up. You usually only worked until four in the afternoon on Fridays, so you still had enough time for Brian's little programme.

"(Y/n), your boyfriend's here," your co-worker chirped from behind the counter once he entered the store.

It broke his heart to see your head shoot up, probably hoping Roger would be standing in front of you, but eventually finding it was Brian who she had just called your boyfriend. You said you had moved on, but he could tell from the look in your eyes every time somebody mentioned your ex or something reminded you of him that you hadn't.

Every photo of the two of you in happier times, every Instagram post he had tagged you in, every place you walked by on your way to work where you'd used to hang out together, even listening to 'Make You Feel My Love' - your song - made you think of him, thus reminding Brian once again he couldn't stand a chance. Even if Roger was out of your life, he wasn't out of your heart. He never would be. You were too attached to him and he honestly couldn't blame you. It wasn't right of him to be jealous, but he really wished he'd taken his chance back then before you'd gotten together with Roger. He would never have broken your heart like this, but now it was too late. Too late to make everything alright and save you from all this pain.

It wasn't like you never talked to Brian about it; he tried to help whenever he could, but some things you had to work out yourself. He knew it wasn't easy to get over your child's father over the course of only three months, yet he was always solicitous of arranging this time as good as possible for you. When his work schedule allowed it he took you to do fun stuff or just stayed at home with you to take care of you when you weren't feeling well.

"He's not my boyfriend, Vera," you mumbled while grabbing your coat and bag. Your intention was to sound annoyed, but you couldn't help the small smile that was only getting wider the more you tried to suppress it. He found it adorable. Even if the reason you were smiling wasn't exactly the one he wished for, you were still happy to see him and that was enough.

Tucking his hands into his pockets, he approached you with an excited grin. "Ready?"

You tilted your head and pursed your lips. "For what?"

"Actually, I had a little plan you might like…"

You whined. "Bri! Just tell me, what is it?"

"You're ruining the fun!" He chuckled and offered you his arm. "Do you want to go shopping?"

Your face lit up and you nodded quickly as if he would change his mind if you had left him waiting two seconds longer. It really was special to you because Brian hated shopping - like every man except Freddie and Roger. Over the past years, you had always tried - and failed - to get Brian to go shopping with you, so how could you refuse any opportunity to buy new clothes, especially if he suggested it himself without being forced to do so?

"Knew it," he laughed, making his way outside with you on his arm.

You stopped and looked up at him, suspicion in your eyes. "Wait, there must be some ulterior motive for sure…"

He smirked, wiggling his eyebrows. "Maybe so?"

You shot him a fake glare and continued walking when he replied, "Nothing bad, I promise. I just thought because you start showing and you complain about your shirts getting tighter sometimes that you might want to buy new things?"

"Well, you thought right! Thank you!" You gratefully squeezed his arm, pressing your cheek against it.

"I'll pay, of course," Brian added, trying to hold back a smirk because he knew how you'd react. No matter what you'd say, he'd definitely pay. Just like the many times he'd taken you to the cinema or to Pizza Hut and you'd insisted on paying for yourself, but he'd ended up doing it while you hadn't been around.

"Do that and I'll punch you," you joked, nudging his side as you made your way to H&M. The thirty minute walk seemed much shorter with all the friendly banter and chatting about your respective day at work. Somehow your hands were linked a couple of minutes later by the time Brian looked down and noticed, but kept quiet about it. He enjoyed it too much.

Though disappointed at the loss of contact, he grinned and let go of your hand as the two of you entered the store. "Go crazy."

You immediately ran towards the maternity section. You were pretty sure he let go of you because he didn't want to be dragged through the entire store by you. Once Brian caught up, he stood by your side, leaning against a buttress and watching you adoringly. Mumbles of approval escaped your mouth as you grabbed yet another piece of clothing.

It was moments like this that he cherished the most. Just doing everyday things with you and still seeing you so happy about the smallest things despite the overall circumstances. He thought it had been too long since you'd been like this around him. Even when you had been with Roger, Brian had always stayed your best friend, but most of these seemingly irrelevant moments you had shared with your boyfriend. Although he was also friends with Roger, he was a pretty jealous guy and Brian had been too afraid to do things with you that might have given the wrong impression, so every friend-date had been very lowkey to avoid getting into trouble. He was happy he had you back now.

"I sure hope these are only the ones you try on," he teased, smirking as he took two pairs of jeans and a white lace dress from you, though you still had at least ten more items on your left arm.

You playfully swatted his arm with your free hand and continued hunting for clothes. "I'm the one who pays, you know?"

No, you aren't. Brian wanted to let you believe you were going to pay until later when actually, he'd take his credit card out before you could open your purse.

He laughed and shook his head before following you to the changing rooms. Sitting on the bench in front of them, he waited for you to come out with the clothes you'd taken with you. Whenever you presented something to him, he rated it from one to ten. Most of the clothes ranged between eight and ten and he knew this was going to be expensive, but you were worth it. If he couldn't give you the emotional and physical support you needed, he wanted to give you something material to make up for it.

"Hey, you need a nursing bra?" he asked casually while looking through the lingerie section.

"A what?" You drew back the curtain and stepped out, walking over to Brian.

He held it up against his own chest. "Looks sexy, doesn't it?"

You gave him an annoyed look, though holding back a giggle was a challenge. He laughed and put it away, exploring the rest of the section. "Okay, but this one actually looks good!" he said, showing you a blue lace bra. "It should be the right size too," he added.

"How do you know my bra size?" You gave him a shocked look.

He smirked. "Truth or dare. Freddie's 21st birthday party."

"You're impossible."

"You were drunk," he defended himself. "Oh, and here's the matching slip!" His grin had grown even more more impudent, overshadowing his blush.

"Why should I even buy this? No one's gonna see it anyway."

"That's the point. But you'll see it and apparently you'll feel better. Or at least that's what I've heard, I don't know." He shrugged.

"Alright," you sighed and returned to the changing room, the lingerie set in your hand. Maybe you'd tell him it was the wrong size and he'd leave you alone.

But when you did actually try the bra on, you decided to keep it. Perhaps Brian was right about it making you feel better. Anyway, you were going to buy it, even if you couldn't make a boyfriend happy with it. "(Y/n)? Everything okay?" Brian called and you quickly changed into your normal clothes again.

"Yup, don't worry!"

After your big shopping hunt, you brought quite a lot of new clothes home. A couple of new t-shirts, flared jeans, bleached ripped jeans, a red jumpsuit, a white lace dress, blue denim shorts, a peach ruffle midi dress, a black pencil skirt, over the bump leggings, a sweater with 'baby in progress' printed on it, a cream colored smocked dress, a pastel green chiffon dress, the blue lace lingerie set and a white maxi dress with blue floral pattern and butterfly sleeves - Brian's personal favorite. Those were the things you knew of.

While you had been trying the lingerie set on, he'd picked a black dress with small white dots for you and when you went to bed a bit earlier he spent the evening connecting the dots to draw the constellations on it. He planned on giving it to you the next time you'd go out somewhere fancy - something you'd always used to do just for fun and hadn't stopped doing until now. He was sure you'd look gorgeous in it and he hoped you'd like this gift, even if maybe his favorite constellation - Orion - being right where your baby bump would be was a little too sentimental.
