hi Rean! can i have a request for reader appears with a wound on her body every day, not because she participated in a fight but because of her bad luck. i wonder how weak hero boys will react 😔
pls ignore if you don't like it. have a good day btw!
Yes you can! And noo I would never ignore you bb 🤍 Good day to you too! So basically reader is bennett right? 😭
*also I finished this faster than I expected yayy
“it’s just bad luck”
Tumblr media
if you keep getting injured due to your bad luck
(gray, ben, alex, donald, jake, wolf)
gray yeon / yeon sieun
You show up to class with a skinned elbow today. Yesterday it was a bruise on your nose bridge. The day before that you had a busted lip.
Gray frowned, watching as you hiss when the sleeves of your uniform ride down your elbow.
You don’t seem like the type to be getting yourself into fights.
But then again, looks can be deceiving. Gray himself is well aware of that fact.
His first thoughts was that you were getting beat up. You really can’t be too careful in the streets of Yeongdeungpo.
So he does what he has to do.
“Hey, do you want to walk home together?”
Surprisingly, you agreed. And Gray noted with relief that you’re simply way too relaxed to be in fear of someone jumping you. So, assholes beating you up was definitely off his list-
“Look out!”
Gray’s eyes widened as he pulled you aside when broken window glasses suddenly came free falling from the sky.
“Shit! Are you okay?! I’m so so sorry! You got dragged into my bad luck.”
“Your what?”
So then you began to explain that you just have chronic bad luck that’s gotten you injured for the past few days.
So that’s what it was.
“Uh, Gray? You’re not mad are you?”
The boy would just simply shake his head and continue walking down the street. He took a passing glance at you, a small smile on his lips.
Perhaps with his presence, your bad luck could finally nullify.
ben park / park humin
I think we can collectively agree that Ben doesn’t have that great of a luck himself.
You and Ben were supposed to go to an arcade today testing out the new machine that they have.
Ben was bouncing on his feet the entire day, anticipating the date.
But as he was walking to your house, a text message popped up in his phone.
I can’t go out today, let’s go some other time.
He stared at his phone for like 5 seconds. You were not the type of person to bail out on plans at d-day unless something really urgent came up.
Did something happen?
No replies.
Ben decided not to push it since he doesn’t want to make you uncomfortable if it was a private matter and walked back home a bit down that day.
When you stopped replying to his texts for the next couple of days was when he began to get really worried that something real bad had happened.
Did you get bored of him? Were you angry? But what did he do? Oh this last one really brought tears to his eyes- What if you breaking up with him?
Alex and Gerard watched him with shared concerns. They suggested he just go visit you at your house and ask for himself what exactly happened.
So here he is, right at your door.
‘Hello?’
“Babe? You weren’t responding to my texts, so I was getting kinda worried-”
He was caught by surprise when you rushed to the door and beamed to hug him.
“Ben! God I missed you so much!”
But his attention was caught on something else. The cast on your arm. Then it went up. Your neck was covered in small scratches and there was bruises on your cheek.
His first thought, the Union.
Holding you by your shoulders, he leaned down.
“Who did this to you?”
“Uh.. babe?”
Before Ben explodes and goes on a killing rampage, you quickly explained that you had gotten into an accident while taking your dog to the doctor. Your phone broke and your last text to him was literally moments before disaster. (the dog is okay guys don’t come for me)
“So, yeah. It’s just my bad luck.”
“I- I thought you were breaking up with me..”
You better give him his hugs and kisses afterwards.
alex go / go hyuntak
Alex is a hot blooded person, so proceed with caution here.
You guys were on a date together, at a small cafe your friend had recommended to you the other day.
“This place is actually really nice, don’t you think?”
“Hm..”
Something about you has been really distracting Alex. He narrowed his eyes at you, trying to find the peculiarity.
“Alex..? Is everything ok- OW!”
Yep. It was your shoulder. He noticed that you haven’t really been raising your left arm. Only moving them moderately, and even suppressing a wince once in a while.
“You’re injured.”
You pouted, looking away to the side.
“What happened? Tell me. Is it the Union? Is it them?!”
it’s your turn to look incredulously at him.
“What is the Union? And wha- no I got hit by a fire extinguisher.”
“You got hit by a what?”
Explaining what happened in short, basically a girl at your home economics class set her station on fire. And this one prick who thinks he’s the main character ran and pour water over the pan making the fire reach up to the ceiling of the classroom. (this happened to my class irl. never do that guys)
So then HE fucked up, which makes another guy with actual brains go and get the fire extinguisher.
And apparently universe decides they want you to have a bad week. The fire extinguisher exploded once he took the seal of, and flew over. Hitting you on the back of your shoulder.
“And that’s the whole story. It’s really just some bad luck going on there.”
Alex would just sit there, flabbergasted.
“Babe.. who did you anger to receive all this bad karma?”
donald na / na baekjin
You did not exactly covered the injuries you sustained on your body. It wasn’t like it was some secret of yours.
Donald also did not pay much attention to it. He does took notice of it, just never really commented much on it.
But then the bruises grew, from one to three, and then to six.
Donald would narrow his eyes at the growing number of injuries you have. How did you even get them? In the first place, you weren’t even an actively physical member of the Union.
So one day after you came to submit your report, Donald would pull you aside and ask for a confirmation.
“Y/N, you know I care about the wellbeing of every members of the Union, don’t you?”
His eyes darted down, yet another growing bruise on your leg above the knee.
He pursed his lips when you tilt your head in confusion.
“Did I do something wrong?”
“You don’t pass me as one, but have you been fighting outside my supervision?”
“Huh? No, I haven’t.”
“Then, is there anyone bothering you?”
“I’m not sure where this is coming from..”
Donald would take your arm and slide the sleeves of your uniform up to reveal trails of bruises.
“Hm?”
“Oh, these! No, they’re not from fighting. I swear.”
“Then?”
Sheepishly rubbing your neck, you’re not too sure you wanted to reveal this not to cool part of your life towards him.
“Well.. it’s just. It’s really nothing, I just have bad luck? I guess?”
“Bad luck..?”
“Yeah, you know. I can’t really explain it, it’s just something I experienced for like all my life really. Plus I have a pretty weak skin! So it’s easy for me to retain bruises.”
Bad luck, huh.
“Stay here for a minute will you, Love. We’ll walk together from now on to minimise that bad luck of yours.”
jake ji / ji hakho
If you guys don’t know each other, or just not very close in general, I honestly don’t think Jake would care that much.
If he’s interested in you, he will try to make a passing comment like, “Ouch, that could leave a scar.”
If you two are already close, depending on the scale of your injury, he will get super worried.
You came to school that day with a bandaged arm. You had accidentally burned yourself while ironing your brother’s clothes. But it was nothing too serious, you cleaned the wound and bandaged it up.
Even so, a fresh wound is still a fresh wound.
“Y/N!”
You hissed when Jake accidentally brushed over your injured arm as he ran over to hug you.
“Hm? Are you okay? Did I hurt you?”
“You didn’t hurt me, Jake. It’s fine.”
Jake would be left stunned as you left him in front of the school yard.
You’ve never avoided him like this before. Except for the next few days, whenever he initiated any big physical contact, you would push him off like the plague.
“Alright, this is not fun anymore. What’s going on?”
It was a huge problem for him not being able to hug you. So, he needs to get to the core of the problem.
“My arm. I burned it on an iron, and you kept accidentally touching them. So- WAIT JAKE!”
Rolling up your sleeves with little considerations for you, he noticed the white gauze peeking through.
You watched as your boyfriend lowered the sleeves of your blazer back down, a hard look on his face.
“WHY DIDN’T YOU TELL ME?! And all this time I thought I did something to upset you or something!”
“H-huh?! No, you didn’t! It was just my bad luck..”
“Bad luck or whatever, I want you to tell me the reason I can’t get your hugs next time!”
wolf keum / keum seongje
Wolf Keum is a lot. And out of all those things that he is, he is perceptive.
And really, he notices everything about you. If you changed your shampoo, or when you get a new perfume. He KNOWS.
So you can have my words that he would notice even the smallest imperfection on your skin.
The two of you were at your house after the teacher assigned you for voluntary summer tutoring for extra marks to add onto your uni application later on.
You brought it up to Wolf one day and he shrugged, filing his name in.
So that brings him here, in front of your house. With a box of roll cake his mother made him bring.
They’re giving you tutoring for free! Bring this over and say thank you! Don’t let me hear complaints from their parents about any bad behaviour, Wolf Keum. You hear?!
(I can just imagine mama wolf being a total tiger mom ngl)
“Noona, it’s Wolf.”
Alright back to present time.
It was in the middle of summer. You wore shorts, just like everyone else to spare your body from any possible heat stroke.
It wasn’t visible while you were standing up. But once you sat down and crossed your legs, Wolf noticed a slight discolouration on the inner of your thigh.
Absentmindedly, he slid his hand down to raise up your shorts.
“Wolf! Are you out of your-“
Your older sister who was passing by the living room to get some water averted her eyes awkwardly and murmured something about getting a room.
“Seriously, Wolf..”
“Why do you have bruises here?”
“What?”
Wolf looked at you, and you looked down to where his hand is.
You sighed, about to lose your mind with this kid.
“I fell off a bike a few days ago. It wasn’t anything serious, just got a bit unlucky.”
You replied, pulling down the hem of your shorts back.
“You should be more careful, Noona. Even I don’t fall off of bikes since grade school anymore.”
“-!”

hi there, could i request a matchup?
------------
im a 5'4 female, im pretty medium sized with an a hourglass figure. i have tan /light brown skin, with some freckles on my nose/cheeks, arms and legs, and light brown eyes. i have really curly hair, but its normally kept short and to my neck or jawline. sometimes im very insecure about my looks, especially after a draining day at school. usually, im fine and i do enjoy everything about myself. my insecurities come and go with certain situations.
-------------
i am a little bit of an ambivert. i really only let myself be silly and open around people who i want to know, or who i already know! i have really bad anxiety, and i have bad coping mechanisms for my idle/nervousness, such as scratching my limbs, or obsessively pulling out my hair. (they are very bad habits to break, but i try everyday.)
my MBTI type is INTP. along with this, i can get irritated pretty easily, especially when im tired / just woken up. im also very emotional! i can go through many emotions in one moment, but when i finally settle on one that fits the mood, i'll stay like that for a while.
i can be very unmotivated, and it takes alot of of my system for me to sit down and make time to actually get work done, but thats okay! once i start, i dont stop and i can confidently turn all my work in before its late. in other words, im an extremely good and sucessful procastinator.
i dont like to think of myself of a nice person, but everyone says i am! i try not to come off as soft, but sometimes a few things slip through the cracks and i will start willingly go out of my way to make someone feel better, or just because i was thinking about them.
i dont like the feeling of 'having a crush' on somebody, because i feel vunerable, and i start getting even more nervous than i already am to begin with. (crush goes along with romantic feelings, as well as platonic! i have friend crushes, if that makes sense.)
--------
i used to do ballet for around 6 years, but now i do water sports (polo, competitive swimming, diving!)
a side sport/hobby i do is western horse riding. being isolated from a city and just being in a somewhat 'outdated' old fashioned place has its benefits, and its very relaxing for me!
i also enjoy making edits using adobe programs, and videostar. its just something to distract myself with if im feeling down or bored!
i have a small hobby in gaming, as well. i mostly play indie or 'escapism' games on my switch, like stardew valley, animal crossing, minecraft etc..
-------
thank you so much! i tried to make this easy to read and understand by splitting it up. thank you for your time!!✨
-------
Hello!! ✨ ✨ ✨
Thank you for sending in a request! Sorry for the wait ;; i hope you like the result! 
reminding me of stardew like that ;; i wanted to marry alex but will that ever happen.. i abandoned my boy...
okay sooo I decided to match you with either Belphie, Beel or Levi...
I match you with Levi. this was a very hard decision to make, ngl
Here is why i chose him though:
Okay so this man is insecure af. He definitely understands what you mean when you are insecure - but he is confused by the very same fact! How is someone as pretty as you could feel insecure???? 
He definitely enjoys the fact that you are better at socializing than him so you might help him out a bit. He also enjoys that you are not on the other end of the spectrum though. 
He deals with anxiety himself as well so i’m sure he could suggest you some methods that might help! However the best would be if you could also help him out a bit to give both of your confidences some boost! 
Levi can definitely be driven by emotions too from time to time so hopefully nothing too dramatic will happen out of that - I just think it helps you understand the other more spiritually. Also he will just learn to not really bother you on the early hours of the morning, so that’s something that can be solved. 
The fact that you procastinate isn’t a turn off for him, so it’s a relationship where you two accept the other’s negative traits without any conflicts arising or annoying the other long-term.
Okay so we all know that he has a kink for being mean to him so you attempting to appear that way is a turn-on for him. However you having a soft side is something he finds cute and it’s nice that you are sweet enough to reassure him in case he gets hurt or you say something you didn’t actually mean, you know that kind of stuff
Oh god he also has some trouble when it comes to liking or loving someone. He is a tsundere but more like he just doesn’t believe you actually love him. Hopefully you are determined enough to convince him of your feelings! It might reasult in some awkward scenes but it will be worth it for sure! 
Your hobbies are all very active so it’s kind of an opposites attract situation going on here... I mean in a healthy relationship hobbies doesn’t really matter. Both of you can try the other’s and maybe some you’ll pick up, some you wouldn’t ever try. It might not be easy to find a topic in common at first and he will definitely think of you as a normie forever. He will be so ashamed that he fell for a normie, imagine his reaction oh noo 
I think video games will probably let you two connect a bit more. Sure the types of games you like are different, but he will definitely invite you to be his player 2! 
I think theres definitely some mutual understanding on an emotional, deeper level, even if on the surface and hobbies are rather different.

1 | Projects and Objects
James Madison recently gotten a number from one of his classmates, since the two have a project due next week. Turns out, the number is incorrect which leads him into talking to a total stranger, and then into an absolute disaster.
____
This is a college + modern + text/chat AU. It's a slow burn fanfiction, too, but not including Burr and Lee's relationship along with Hercules and Lafayette's. Madison/Jefferson/Hamilton ship. Warning: Cursing. _______________________
***-***-**** (3:55) P.M): Hello, Molly, this is James Madison. You gave me your number in class in regards to the group project we were recently assigned to. Since it is our duty to work together as partners, I hope we can come to an agreement where we have little to no social interaction at all.
??? (4:01 P.M): wot
???: Oh yeh
???: Think you have the wrong number, my dude
???: Yeah*
***-***-****: Pardon?
***-***-***: I have checked the number three times already.
???: Lmao molly gave you a fake number
???: she isn’t interested in u
***-***-****: Why should she be, anyway? I am not interesting in the slightest. We’re just partners for a project that we were assigned. Don’t assume.
***-***-****: Please disregard my rude interruption from whatever you were doing, I shall proceed to erase your number from my contacts and we will carry on like this never happened.
???: What
???: Noo dude wiat
???: James
???: jAmes
???: JAMES ANSWER ME THEERE’s A FIRE
***-***-****: If there is a fire, you should have called the fire department.

???: And a nerd, and nerds are my type ;))
***-***-****: What.
***-***-****: Whatever. I have no interest in pursuing a relationship with you, Jefferson. We don’t know each other at all, and I do not have time for friends. This project is worth half of my semester grade, and I will not be failing because of this foolery.
???: Smhhh
???: Seriously?? no time for friends
???: That’s really sad, my dude
???: well, guess what
***-***-****: What, pray tell?

I Never Thought (Alexander x reader)
A/N: I’m so sorry this took so long! I hope you enjoy!
Request: Hello! Can you write an Alexander x reader where you and the squad all live together and they know that you and Alexander like each other but you won’t admit it so they try and get you guys together! Thank you!
You had met the group of boys your first year of college, and had become fast friends. They all took you in easily claiming you were ‘the missing piece to make the group complete.’ So, naturally your second year of college you all decided to move in together. There was only one problem, you liked Alexander and Alexander liked you. The issue was, that neither of you knew that your feelings were mutual and you were too afraid to admit it to each other. The boys had been growing frustrated before, but now that you all lived together, they had to do something.
“Is anyone else tired of the love sick puppies, that just so happen to be in love with each other?” John asks, his friends, exasperated.
Hercules and Lafayette both raise their hands.
“We have to get them together, somehow,” Laf shakes his head.
“And soon,” Herc adds, “those two are driving me nuts.”
With all of them in agreement they started their first plan to get you and Alex together. They decided that you needed more alone time together. Their first plan they thought was foolproof. They were going to ditch you both at the movies.
“Hey, we were thinking about heading to the movies today,” Hercules comes to sit next you on the couch, while you’re reading. “You wanna come?”
“When did you guys want to go?”
“Maybe in an hour or so?”
“Okay,” you shrug your shoulders with a smile, getting up to get ready.
Hercules gives a thumbs up to Laf in the kitchen, he nods and turns to Alex.
“Mon ami, we are all going to the movies, would you like to join us?”
“Is (Y/N) going?” he asks, in a way he thinks is nonchalant.
“Oui,” Laf has to turn away to hide his smile. “Oui, she’s coming.”
“Okay, just let me know when everyone is ready.”
Laf nods and gives Herc a thumbs once Alex has left the kitchen.
An hour later you all enter the movie theater, you and Alex chattering away, and the other boys grinning cunningly at each other. John taps both Laf and Herc that the movie theater is showing a scary movie. They both nod excitedly.
“Hey,” Herc clears his throat to catch your attention. “How about a scary movie?”
“I vote horror,” John smiles, raising his hand.
“Me too,” Herc joins, lifting his hand as well.
“Oui,” Laf raises his hand with a smile.
Alex shrugs, raising his hand as well, looking over at you. You look at each of them with a sigh. Horror movies weren’t your favorite, but if the boys wanted to see one, you weren’t going to keep them from it.
“Let’s go,” you smile, raising your hand.
They cheer, and head into the theater, purchasing tickets and finding your seats. The boys make sure, you and Alex are seated together. You’re first to sit with Alex next to you, and the boys following after. The movie starts and the boys grin as they see you lean into Alex slightly. He smiles at you, while your eyes are glued to the screen, he leans into you, patting your hand in reassurance. Once the jump scares start, you’re cuddled up to Alex and he has his arms wrapped around you. They sneak out of the theater, neither of you noticing.
Another jump scare and you hide your face in Alex’s chest as his arms tightened around you. You’d be lying if you said you weren’t happy, although terrified, at the moment. Another loud noise makes you jump as you clutch Alex. He brings a hand to the back of your head, holding you impossibly close. You take a moment to breath in his scent, I mean why not? At the same time he lightly nuzzles your hair, breathing you in as well.
The movie finally ends and you’re almost disappointed. You detach yourself from Alex, an embarrassed smile on your lips.
“Sorry,” you say quietly, though you’re not sorry at all.
“Hey, don’t worry about it,” he brushes hair behind your ear. “Anytime,” he winks.
“Thanks,” you laugh. You look behind him to see if the boys were ready, only to find them gone. “Where are they?”
Alex turns confused, seeing his friends gone. “Maybe, they went to get popcorn?”
“At the end of the movie?” You ask, somewhat annoyed. They were the ones who wanted to see this movie.
“Let’s see if they’re outside somewhere,” Alex takes your hand in his, leading you out of the crowded theater.
You try not to blush, as you exit the theater. Your eyes scan around you, but you don’t see them anywhere.
“I’m going to call them and see where they are,” you take out your phone and call John.
“Hello?” he answers after the third ring.
“Where are you guys?”
“Oh,” he pauses, “we decided to get something to eat.”
“Okay,” you drag out. “Were you guys planning on telling us?”
“Noo,” another pause, “you guys seemed to be enjoying the movie.”
“So, you just ditched us,” you scoff, fully annoyed now. “After dragging us here and making us see a movie that you wanted to watch, you decided to just ditch us here?”
“Yeah….come on, (Y/N), the movie got boring.”
“Why didn’t you tell us anything, then?”
“You looked like you were enjoying it,” he repeats.
“Like I was enjoying it?” you try to contain yourself as you take deep breath. “You know what? Whatever.” You abruptly hang up the phone, shaking your head in frustration.
“What happened?” Alex asks gently, not wanting to upset you further.
“Our friends decided that the movie, that they wanted to see, was boring and went and got something to eat, ditching  us here.” You end in a huff.
“Hey, it’s okay,” he rubs your shoulder, pulling you into his side.
“Its just,” you pause, “What the hell?! I mean they’re the ones who wanted to come here and then see the movie. What’s their problem?”
“Who cares?” he shrugs, and you look at him, confused. “I mean, let’s get something to eat and go for a walk,” he suggests. “Who needs them to have a good time?”
You feel a small smile form on your lips, despite how irked you are.
“I’m making them pay me back for that movie ticket,” you laugh, leaning your head on his shoulder.
“You should,” he hugs you to his side. “In the meantime, let’s eat and wonder around.”
You nod at him, a big smile on your face. If you were being honest, maybe it wasn’t the worst thing ever. You walked with Alex hand in hand, smiling all the while, and you realized you’d never been so happy to be ditched.
Alex couldn’t stop grinning, his hand held in yours, even if it was only in friendship. He was happy just to be able to touch you. You ate together, laughed, and walked around in the park. You couldn’t keep the smile off your face and neither could he.
Once you got home, the boys were excited to see if their plan worked. They were disappointed when you walked in with only glares in their direction.
“You,” you pointed at each of them, “owe me nine bucks, for the movie you made me see and then ditched me at.”
“That goes double for me, too,” Alex raise his eyebrows at each of them, as he makes his way to his room.
“What?” John exclaims his face falling. “You’re not serious are you?”
“Yes!” You both turn, glaring at the three of them as they frown, sinking into the couch.
You turn to Alex and wrap him in a hug. He wraps his arms around you, reveling in your touch.
“Thanks for today, I had a lot of fun,” you smile as you pull away, you kiss his cheek and turn to head to your room.
He stands there a goofy smile on his face, before heading to his room.
“I guess we need a plan b, mon amies?”
“Yep,” Herc nods, “definitely one better than plan a.”
“One that doesn’t, cost us any debts to pay off,” John huffs.
They decided on a safer approach this time, leaving you at home with suggestive movies. They had all made up excuses not to be at the apartment and making sure both of you had the day to spend together. Laf set up the movies on the coffee table. Friends With Benefits, No Strings Attached, Love Rosie, and When Harry Met Sally. Hopefully these movies would dredge up something.
“Do you think this will work?” Laf looks at his friends with concern.
Hercules shrugs his shoulders.
“I don’t know, but it’s worth a shot.”
John nods his head in agreement.
“Plus this plan didn’t cost is a dime,” he winks as the other boys chuckle.
“What are you guys whispering about?” You come into the living room with a suspicious smile.
“No-nothing, mon ami,” Laf smiles nervously, not looking you in the eye.
You furrow your eyebrows, growing more suspicious.
“Nothing?”
“It’s a secret, (Y/N),” John shrugs his shoulders nonchalantly. “You’ll find out soon enough,” he winks, before heading out the door with a small wave.
“Yeah,” Hercules mumbles, looking down at his watch. “We need to get going,” he gives you a quick hug before following John out.
You stand there confused and still suspicious as Laf kisses your cheek and nearly sprints out the door, before you can ask him a question. Alex walks out of his room to see you standing in the middle of living room with confused expression on your face.
“Everything okay, (Y/N)?” He asks, placing a light hand on your shoulder. You turn, your mind still trying to figure out what they were up to.
“Yeah,” you look up at him, “Its just, have the boys seemed weird to you lately?”
He chuckles, and gives you a warm smile, that makes the butterflies in your stomach go wild.
“They’re always weird,” he laughs, turning to go to the kitchen.
You scoff, rolling your eyes and following him. You lean against the counter as he grabs a drink.
“I mean weirder than usual.”
He thinks for a moment, taking a sip of his drink, before shrugging his shoulders. In truth he had an idea of what they were trying to do, and he wasn’t about to give up time alone with you. He appreciated their efforts, but he wasn’t sure you felt the way he did and just in case you didn’t, he wasn’t willing to push.
You roll your eyes again, and sigh. Alex smirks at you and grabs your hand, pulling you away from the counter.
“Don’t worry about what they’re doing,” he pulls you to him with a hug, that you sink into immediately as if your body reacted to him without having to think about it. “Its probably something silly, anyways,” he gives you squeeze, before pulling back to look at you. For a moment he thinks he sees something in your eyes, but chalks it up to wishful thinking. “How about we watch a movie?” he smiles down at you, and you nod, your smile matching his.
You grab a drink for yourself, before following him to the living room. You smile when you see the movies laid out on the table.
“Hey,” you pick up the pile of movies. “I love these,” you smile, looking through the small selection.
Alex tries not to laugh at the obvious hint the movies were, and how oblivious you were. He couldn’t help but smile at how something as simple as a movie made you so happy.
“Can we watch one of these?” You look over at him, smiling.
“Anything you want,” he smiles, waving his hand towards the movies for you to pick.
You purse your lips and look at each one intently, thinking about which one you would both enjoy and one you actually felt like watching. Alexander watched you closely, smiling lovingly at you.
“When Harry Met Sally?” you ask, turning to see if he agreed. He nodded at you, leaning back into the couch.
You put the movie in and return to the couch. You pause a moment, wanting to cuddle up to Alex, but not wanting to seem clingy or something. He nudges your foot with his to get your attention. You turn to look at him and he opens his arms with a wink. You laugh lightly, and move to snuggle into his side as his arms go around you. Alex holds you close, taking comfort in the fact you wanted to be close to him as much as he wanted to be close to you. You end up watching all the movies left out. You eat popcorn and sandwiches, cuddling.
Halfway through the last movie, which ended up being Love, Rosie, Alex looks down at you to see you’ve fallen asleep. He smiles, you’re snoring softly with your head on his chest and your hand over his heart. He kisses your head softly and pulls you close, laying back a little more, closing his eyes and drifting to sleep.
The boys return home, trying to be as quiet as possible as they entered. When they see you both asleep and cuddled on the couch, they think their plan worked and walk quietly to their rooms.
You wake up in the middle of the night, lifting your head and smile at Alex as he sleeps., he always looked so peaceful. You kiss his cheek softly, before gently waking him.
“Hey,” you smile softly, “we fell asleep, but I think our beds would be a little more comfortable,” you chuckle.
He chuckles along with you, nodding as he lifted himself from the couch. You both clean up and make your way to your rooms, before you can reach yours he grabs your wrist lightly. You look at him questioningly.  
“Is everything okay?” you ask, your free hand moving to his cheek.
He nods slowly looking intently, making you nervous and excited all at once. For a moment you think you see something in his eyes, adoration? Love? You shake your head lightly, pushing the thought away. He pulls you into him, wrapping his arms around you.
“Just wanted to say goodnight,” he kisses your temple, and gives you a small smile as he releases you and enters his room.
You stand there for a moment and whisper a ‘goodnight’, even though he probably can’t hear you. You shuffle to bed, laying down and wondering what that was.
The next morning the boys anxiously wait in the kitchen for you and Alex to wake up. You wake up before he does, making your way to the kitchen and getting a cup of coffee. You turn to see them smiling widely their eyes nearly bulging.
“Good morning?” you say cautiously, a little freaked out. “Is there a reason you’re all looking at me like that?”
“Did you have fun last night?” John wiggles his eyebrows, confusing you further.
“I guess…”
“You guess?” Herc asks, looking at you expectantly. “What happened?”
“Me and Alex watched some movies and fell asleep,” you furrow your eyebrows, looking at them like they were crazy.
Alex enters the kitchen at this moment grabbing some coffee for himself.
“That’s it?” Laf asks, looking somewhat shocked.
“What’s it?” he asks looking at you and then the guys.
“What did you and (Y/N) do last night?” John asks, thinking you might be covering.
“We watched a few movies and fell asleep,” he shrugs his shoulders, like it’s no big deal.
“See?” you say, gesturing to Alex.
You began to feel nervous under their gaze, a blush blooming on your cheeks. You take a sip of your coffee trying to hide it.
“What else would have happened,” you scoff, quickly exiting the kitchen, running from any questions they might have.
They stare at Alex for a moment, he gives them a smirk and shakes his head.
“You’ve got to be less obvious,” he mumbles.
“What?” The three ask in unison with wide eyes.
“What?” he shrugs at them and walks out of the kitchen.
“Okay this plan is foolproof, right?” John asks, looking worriedly at his friends.
“If this doesn’t work, I don’t know what will,” Herc places a reassuring hand on his shoulder.
“This one will work, mon amies,” Laf smiles at them, “I can feel it.”
They smile and nod, as they set everything up. This was it, their big plan, the only one they had left. You and Alex would receive notes from ‘secret admirers’, that asked you to meet them on the roof of the building tonight. They were going to convince Alex, while the Schuylers were going to convince you. They had everything set in place, now all they had to do was wait.
You came back home later that day from classes, a bouquet of flowers waiting for you in your room with a note. You open the small envelope.
I have known you a while, loved you just as long. Your eyes I want to see every morning as I wake. Your hand clasped in mine, I want to walk through life with you by my side. You know who I am. Meet me tonight at 8:00 on the roof, if you feel the same.
Your Secret Admirer
You look down at the note in confusion. A secret admirer? Who could it be? You knew who you wanted it to be, but you doubted it. Would it be so crazy though? You and Alex had always been close and you definitely treated him a little different than the other boys. Maybe, he felt something too? You shake your head and wander around the apartment, looking for any of the boys. You find Hercules in the kitchen.
“Hey, Herc,” you smile quickly holding the note in your hand.
“Hey, (Y/N), how was class?” he grins at you.
“It was fine,” you wave your hand. “Do you know who sent me those flowers in my room?”
He shrugs his shoulders and shakes his head.
“Some delivery guy brought them earlier and I figured you would know.”
You sigh and look down at the card.
“Everything okay?”
“Yeah, yeah,” you nod, giving him a small smile. “I’m just going to visit the Schuylers for a bit.”
“Alrighty,” he shrugs his shoulders. He watches you walk out the door, a big grin on his face. He takes out his phone, texting Eliza that you were on your way.
An hour later Alex returns from the coffee shop and entered his room to find an envelope on his desk with his name on it. He furrowed his eyebrows as he opened it.
I know you well, and love you more. You brighten my day and you’re never a bore. I want to be yours, will you be mine? If you do, meet me tonight at 8:00 on the roof. I’ll be waiting.
Your secret admirer
Alex chuckles and shakes his head. His friends really wanted you and him together. He decides to play along. In the last few weeks he had felt a shift in your friendship. There was an electricity between you, it had always been there, but it seemed to be getting stronger, more intense. If this could lead to something more, he was going to go along with it. He enters the living room, seeing John laying on the couch.
“Hey, John, did you leave this note on my desk?”
“Yeah, some girl asked me to give it to you when I was walking into the building,” he shrugs nonchalantly, acting like he didn’t really know or care.
“Do you remember what she looked like or know who she was?” Alex looks at his friend, imploringly. “There’s no name on the card.”
“There isn’t?” John sits up. “Can I see it?”
Alex shrugs, handing him the note. John lightly chuckles reading it.
“Wow, sounds like she’s really into you man,” he hands Alex the note and leans back into the couch. “Are you going to meet her?”
“I don’t know,” Alex shakes his head.
“I think you should,” John shrugs, “I mean it could be someone you really like and what’s the harm in that?”
“You really think I should go?” Alex asks, pretending to be hesitant.
“Yeah, I do, even if it’s a bust, at least you’ll know.”
“Yeah, I guess you’re right.” Alex nods his head, looking down at the note. “I guess I have date tonight then.”
John smirks as Alex walks back to his room. Hercules and Lafayette come to join him on the couch, each giving him a high-five.
You arrive at the Schuylers tapping the note in your hand. You knock a few times before Eliza opens the door.
“Hey, (Y/N), what’s going on?” She greets you with a smile.
“I got this note with some roses delivered to me today and I’m not sure what to do,” you sigh, walking in and collapsing on couch.
“Who is it from?”
“That’s the thing it’s signed ‘your secret admirer’, so I have no idea,” you hand her the note.
“Well, whoever it is, is quite smitten with you.”
“There’s only one person I want it to be and doubt it’s him.”
Eliza looks over at Peggy and Angelica sharing a smile before turning back to you.
“And just who is this person you wish it was?” Angelica asks, her eyebrow raised and a smirk on her lips.
You roll your eyes at her expression,  staring at your hands.
“You all know I’ve basically been in love with Alex since the day we met,” you sigh, looking up at Angie. “It doesn’t matter because he doesn’t feel the same and I really don’t want to know who this person is.” You grab a pillow covering your face. “But I’m also really curious.”
The three girls chuckle at your behavior, Peggy rolling her eyes and Angie shaking her head. Eliza gently pulls the pillow away from you, giving you a kind smile.
“Sweetie, did you ever think that maybe, just maybe, it could be Alexander?”
“Yeah, right,” you scoff, not wanting to get your hopes up.
“No, she’s right,” Peggy comes to sit in front of you on the coffee table. “You should see the way he looks at you when you’re not paying attention.”
“Mmhm,” Angelica nods her head on your other side. “He looks at you like you’re like you’re the most beautiful thing he’s ever seen.”
“He does?” You look at her, disbelieving.
“He really does,” Eliza places her hand on your knee, giving you a gentle smile. “I think he feels a lot more for you than you realize, and I believe this note is his way of finally telling you.”
“Why wouldn’t he just say so?”
“Fear of rejection,” Peggy shrugs her shoulders.
“Maybe, he wanted to tell you gently, so he wouldn’t freak you out,” Angelica suggests.
“You guys really think it’s him?” You look tentative still, but more hopeful.
The girls smile at you and nod.
“I guess I better get ready for my date then,” you say with a smile, rising from the couch. “But,” you turn back to look at them as you stop at the door, “be ready just in case it isn’t him, because I’m going to need ice cream and loads of comfort.”
They laugh as you wave goodbye. They look at each other, huge grins on their face as they high-five and sit back on the couch.
Alexander gets ready early wanting to be on the roof before you, not wanting to keep you waiting. He was nervous. This is it, he thought. This was the moment that he could get everything he wanted or lose the small piece he had. It was nerve wrecking, the thought of losing you. It would decimate him, but he had hope. If his friends worked this hard to get you two together, they must know something. With that thought he takes one more look at himself in the mirror, takes a deep breath and leaves the apartment to await you on the roof.
You get home and figure you out what to wear, settling on your favorite dress. You put your hair in loose curls and did your makeup. You smoothed down your dress, checking the time. You take deep breath, giving yourself a final once over before heading to the roof. You stop at the door, hesitating. He’s either there or he’s not. If he is, you’ll be the happiest girl in the world. You lift your hand and push the door open….
Alex opens the door to the rooftop and looks around, impressed. There were twinkle lights everywhere, rose petals leading to a small table with food, candles and wine. He smiles at the effort they put into this, he would have to remember to thank them. He waits near the door, checking his watch. It was five til, and he waited with baited breath when he heard foot steps. There’s a pause and then the door pushes open and there you are.
He releases a breath he didn’t know he was holding. You look stunning, he’s speechless. All he can do is smile as your eyes meet his. You look like you don’t really believe he’s standing there.
“Its really you,” you smile, tears suddenly springing to your eyes.
He walks over to you, a gentle smile on his lips. He takes one of your hands in his, leading you under the twinkle lights. He brushes your tears away, and looks lovingly into your eyes.
“(Y/N), I have loved you since the day we met.” He smiles, brushing a hair out your face. “I saw you and I was a goner,” he lightly chuckles. “And then I got to know, and it shocked me everyday to realize I loved you even more than the day before.” He caresses your cheek, staring into your eyes. “I fall in love with everyday, you’re my best friend, but I want more.”
“So do I,” you whisper, tears trickling down your cheeks, as your heart beats faster with each word he speaks and the butterflies erupt in your stomach.
“Yeah?” he smiles, almost shocked, you felt the same, relieved.
“Yeah,” you chuckle. “I’ve been in love with you since we said hello. I never thought for one moment you could ever feel the way I do, so I settled for being your friend.” You smile up at him, resting your hand on top of his and leaning into his chest. “And, now to hear that you feel the same,” you try to keep the tears at bay, “I feel like I could fly, I’m so happy.”
He smiles at you, his eyes shining with love.
“I love you,” he whispers leaning his forehead against yours.
“I love you,” you whisper back.
You pull back slightly to look at him, he pulls you close and leans down, gently pressing his lips to yours. You kiss each other slowly, tentatively at first. Then, with one deep breath, you pull each other impossibly close and lips moving together passionately. You both pull away, with breathless laughter.
“I can’t believe this is actually happening,” you smile, gently running your fingers through his hair.
He kisses your nose, fingers gently rubbing your back.
“Me either, if this is a dream, I don’t ever want to wake up.”
You smile as he kisses you softly. He starts to sway gently, leading you with him. You now notice there’s music playing, you rest your head on his shoulder. You don’t know how long you sway back and forth like that, soft romantic songs playing, before you spoke.
“I can’t believe you did all this for me,” you say in disbelief, pulling back to look at him.
“I have a confession to make, love,” your heart swells at the term of endearment as he smiles at you. “I didn’t actually do all of this.”
“What?” your eyebrows furrow in confusion.
“Our friends set all this up.”
“They did?”
“Yep,” he nods. “I went along with it because I wanted to see how you felt and I figured it was either now or never.”
You giggle resting your forehead against his, and then gasped when sudden realization popped into your head.
“Wait,” you look at him wide eyed. “So when they ditched us at the movies,” he nodded, “and when we were left at the apartment all alone, with all those movies?” he nodded again with a smile, chuckling.
“All them, my love.”
“They did all this, for us,” your eyes softened as you looked around. “Remind me to thank them, later.”
You rest your head against his shoulder, as he pulled you close once more.
“We both will,” he smiles, pressing a kiss to your head, resting his head on yours and gently swaying.
Unbeknownst to you, the boys were ‘discreetly’ watching from the doorway, grinning widely at the scene before them.
“They owe us for life,” John excitedly whispered.
“No kidding, those two are ridiculous,” Hercules whispers back, nodding his head.
“Oui, without our help they never would’ve never gotten together,” Lafayette chuckles.
They watch a few more moments before descending the stairs and giving you some privacy.
“You think they’ll give us those nine dollars back?”
