SHOW THE WORLD.

Pairing: Tyler James Williams x Black OC (Tionna).

Warnings: None, just a bunch of fluff.

Author’s Note: Hey y’all! Long time, no see? 😭 Ya girl has been in a writing funk for the longest. Hopefully, I can pick up the pace and get back on track. I’ve been wanting to write something about this man right here for a minute now! So, I hope you all enjoy! ❤️ BTW, this gif of Tyler is…whew. 😮‍💨

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

“Tyler, what if this goes left? Like…” Tionna trailed, “What if your fans, your colleagues, or even the world, doesn’t like me?”

Tyler lifted his eyes to look at her. The pair had been in a relationship for a year now. Although Tyler hadn’t fully exposed who he was dating out of the reasoning of them both agreeing to keep their relationship private, he most definitely wasn’t keeping her a secret. The world definitely knew he was dating someone, they just didn’t know who.

“I don’t care what people may think of you.” Tyler told her. “I want everyone to know about the amazing women I have on my arm. You deserve to be shown off.”

Tionna beamed. She didn’t have the celebrity status like Tyler did. She was a normal girl from Miami, Florida. They met while Tyler was vacationing there. At that time, she worked as a waitress at a popular restaurant in the local area. Although, at the time they met, women were swooning over Tyler. So, he didn’t exactly get to introduce himself to her at that point and time. It wasn’t until that same night, right as the restaurant was closing, that he went and spoke to her. And from then on, the rest was history.

They did the whole long distance thing for a while, but Tionna hated being so far away from Tyler. And he hated being so far away from her. So, out of impulse, she packed up her things and moved to Los Angeles. She received her Bachelor’s in journalism, and that enabled her to get a job for a small company as one of their top editors. The two weren’t currently living together, but they were closer in terms of seeing each other often, and that’s all they wanted.

“You know I’m not famous or well-known, Tyler.” Tionna began, “Wouldn’t everyone think you're crazy for not being with someone who has the same status as you?”

Tyler pulled her body closer to his. “Tionna, if I cared if you were famous, do you think I would’ve chosen you? You caught my eye, I wanted you, and I got you.” Tyler kissed her forehead. “As long as they’re not disrespecting you, do you think I care what people have to say about our relationship? Hell no.”

“You always know what to say, don’t you?” Tionna chuckled. “I am nervous about being in front of the paparazzi tonight, though. I don’t want them to be overbearing with questions. You know they’re gonna ask things.” She rolls her eyes at the thought.

Tyler had to attend the Golden Globe awards, since he was nominated for Best Supporting Actor for the hit TV show, “Abbott Elementary.” Tionna was always tuned in, and she even was able to watch episodes before the rest of the world did. Tionna never liked the flashing lights and cameras, so for her to be in the public eye for the first time was nerve wracking.

Tyler let out a small chuckle at her remark. “If they ask anything that you don’t feel comfortable answering, then you don’t have to, baby.”

Tionna nodded. “Okay, alright. What time are we leaving?”

“Around 8,” Tyler told her. “The awards won’t start until 8:45. So, we can walk across the red carpet together, hand in hand.” He stopped mid-sentence, smiling. “And with you on my arm, we’re gonna be the best looking couple there.”

Tionna giggled. “You think so?”

“I know so,” he replied.

LATER THAT NIGHT, 7:50 PM.

“Hey, baby? You ready?” Tyler said, finishing off his look with spraying some cologne onto his body.

“Yes, I am,” Tionna said, as she stepped out of the bathroom. She appeared in a black dress, which hugged every inch of her body perfectly. The dress had a split on her left thigh, which showed off her colorful dragon tattoo. “You like it?”

Tyler eyed her down; from the top of her head to the bottom of her feet. He couldn’t deny how good she looked. He had to stop himself from gawking at her, before he’d back out of attending the award event at all.

“You look…” Tyler started, “So beautiful.” He walked up to her, pulling her into him. “Are you sure you wanna go? Because…I’m so close to pulling this dress off of you.”

Tionna laughed. “Ty, yes I want to go! Although my nerves are through the roof, I don’t want you to miss out on this moment.”

“Our moment.” He corrected her.

Tionna nodded in agreement. “Yes, our moment. And you don’t look too shabby yourself.”

“Thank ya, thank ya,” Tyler told her, posing as if he was doing so for the camera. “Our driver should be here any second now. Are you ready for this, Tionna?”

Tionna sighed, “Ready than I’ll ever be.”

Tyler grabbed her hand, as he led the way out his home. He was ready for the world to meet his other half, his tiny to his yang, but most importantly, the love of his life. He knew that Tionna wasn’t used to this lifestyle that he lived, and he wasn’t gonna pressure her to be in the limelight. She knew what could possibly come of the two putting their relationship in the spotlight. Yet, she hoped for the best, after all.

After 20 minutes of being on the highway, the two had made it to their destination. The venue where the award show was being held was swarming with famous faces. Tionna looked through the window at all of the people in her view. She saw many that she knew, didn’t know, and so on and so forth.

“Baby,” Tyler began, snapping Tionna out of her thoughts.

She turned to him. “Hmm?”

“Are you okay?” Tyler asked her, “Do you want to wait a moment? We can wait as long as you need to.”

“I’m just overwhelmed, that’s all.” Tionna told him. “But, I’m ready whenever you are.”

Tyler cupped her face in his hands, kissing her passionately. “Let’s show the world, Tionna.”

Tionna smiled, watching as Tyler got out of the vehicle. He walked over to her side, opening the door for her. He thanked the driver, as he waved him off. Tionna put her hand out for his, and he grabbed it, rubbing it gently. They both made their way to the red carpet, seeing photographers taking pictures as the celebrities made their way across the carpet. This was the pre-show, as people would like to call it.

As they made their way across the red carpet, Tyler held onto Tionna closely. They posed for some pictures, making sure he gave small glimpses of PDA. He loved Tionna and he wanted to love her out loud, not caring about who said anything. As they made their way closer to the end, an interviewer asked for a moment of Tyler’s time. She was respectful about it, which Tyler appreciated.

“Tyler James Williams is in the building, people!” The interviewer chimed. “How are you doing tonight, Tyler?”

Tyler smiled, “I’m great, thanks for asking. I’m here with my beautiful girlfriend, Tionna. So, I couldn’t ask for anything more.”

The interviewer beamed. “Ah, yes! She’s stunning, I have to agree!” She said, “And this is your first time making your relationship known to the world, correct?”

Tyler nodded. “Yes, it is. Me and Tionna are both very private people. So, we both agreed that we’d go public when we’re ready. Now, of course I soft launched our relationship here and there, but no one knew who the lucky girl was.”

“Oh, she’s very lucky, that’s for sure.” The interviewer giggled. “Tionna, how are you feeling being shown in the public eye?”

“Um…” Tionna started, “I have to admit, it’s a bit nerve wracking. I’m looking at all of these people, thinking about how can anyone of their status like someone like me? You know?”

“Well, I, for one, already like you.” The interviewer spoke, “You seem to be an excellent fit for Tyler. And did I mention that she’s absolutely stunning, people?!”

Tionna blushed. “Oh my gosh, stop! You’re too kind.”

“Nah, keep hyping her up!” Tyler exclaimed, “When y’all see me, y’all see her too!”

The interviewer laughed, “Y’all are a trip! Now, one last question before you go, Tyler. What do you think your fans will think of your relationship with Tionna?”

“I’ll say this, and I’ll leave it at that.” Tyler started, “If you support me and love me, then you shouldn’t have a problem with my relationship. You should continue to support me, as well as her. If you don’t like it, I’m sorry to tell you but, she ain’t going nowhere!”

“I know that’s right!” The interviewer agreed. “Tyler, thank you so much for your time. And it was nice to meet you, Tionna!”

“No problem, thank you.” Tyler said.

Tionna smiled. “It was nice to meet you as well!”

“You two have a wonderful night!” The interviewer said as they both walked away.

THE GOLDEN GLOBES, 9:13 PM.

“And the award for best supporting actor in a TV series is,” The presenter started, “Tyler James Williams!”

An eruption of applause could be heard across the arena. Tyler stood up from his seat, where he was surrounded by Tionna, his peers, and family. He gave Tionna a kiss, before making his way onto the stage. He stood at the microphone, taking in the moment.

“Wow,” he began, “I don’t even know where to start. Firstly, I’d like to thank the cast and crew of this amazing show. Coming to work with you guys everyday is so fun. Thank you to my manager, friends, family, and all of those who have loved and supported me throughout the years.” He smiled. “Lastly, I’d like to thank someone who I’ve fallen more and more in love with over the past year. My amazing, beautiful, and hardworking girlfriend, Tionna. I just want to tell you, in front of all of these people, that I love you. I’m always with you and for you. You’re the best thing that has ever happened to me. Thank you for supporting me and loving me, baby. Thank y’all again! Have a great night, everyone.”

The camera panned to Tionna, who could be seen wiping tears from her eyes. She was feeling so loved at that very moment. She no longer cared about what people would say about her and Tyler’s relationship. If people didn’t like it because she didn’t have a celebrity status and Tyler did, so what? He loved her and she loved him. And that’s all that truly mattered. Soon enough, Tyler made it back to his table. He turned to Tionna, smiling warmly at her.

“What?” Tionna questioned.

“I’m so glad we did this.” Tyler told her. “People know about my fine girlfriend, and honestly, I ain’t mad at it.”

Tionna giggled. “You’re crazy. What you said up there was so sweet, it made me emotional.”

“And I meant every word I said.” He stated. “I’m always for you, no matter what. I love you and only you. I don’t care what the people, blogs, or whoever has to say about us. We’re happy, and that’s all they need to know.”

Tionna breathed out, “Ty, I literally love you so much.”

Tyler smiled. “I love you too.”
