"The one that got away" Enzo Vogrincic x fem! reader

A/N: Hi! this is the first thing I’ve written in so long, so please be nice. If you have any constructive criticism it’s always welcomed, if it comes from love and respect. I really hope you like this, it’s inspired in kind of a mashup between “The one that got away” by Katy Perry and “Bride or groom” by India Parkman. it’s also written in a third person POV.

Warnings: Basically Angst, all angst, mild drinking. Whatever is in italics is thoughts.

The one where reader never spoke up for her love towards Enzo

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It had always been them two against the world, ever since kindergarten when Y/N being the bubbly extroverted redhead girl she had always been, all but adopted sweet shy Enzo, since day one they had been inseparable. Y/N's mom even started calling them June and Johny as they became teenagers, always up to some innocent mischief -from stealing the leftover vodka from the liquor cabinet to grabbing their parents car keys in the night to go take a drive around-.

It had been so gradually that she had fallen for Enzo that Y/N couldn’t pin point the exact moment, maybe it was after the redhead called him crying at 2 in the morning because that douchebag boyfriend of hers broke it off at 15, or when he ran to the store for the first time to get her tampons cause she had ran out on a Sunday afternoon, and now, here they were.

“Last day of summer” Y/N sighed looking off into the sunset, while she sat beside the raven haired guy on her parents house roof like they always did “who knew highschool would come and go so fast”.

“And you are abandoning me, breaking a 15 year old promise to never leave me alone…” Enzo retorted in an overly dramatic way just to make his best friend laugh,“I always knew you would leave though, that I would have to face this horrible world alone” and laugh she did while rolling her eyes nudging his side playfully.

“Not my fault you’re bound to be the next big screen hearthrob, and I need to go off to college, not all of us are made for stardom”, she absentmindedly passed the bottle to him before turning slightly to look at that beautiful face she had grown to love, Y/N bit the inside of her lip, once again arguing with herself trying to decide if she should tell him she loved him or not - come on Y/N don’t be such a fucking coward, he’s right here, tell him-, she opened her mouth and took a deep breath she was going to do it, she finally would, when his phone rang.

“Well, that’s me, my brother’s downstairs” he huffed standing up placing a kiss on the top of Y/Ns head “see you later fireball” he chuckled as he got off the roof carefully, the nickname he had given his friend when they were kids still made him laugh to this day, the girl hummed nodding and watched him leave.

~~~~~

Life got busy, and they saw eachother less and less with every passing year. Not that anything changed when they did get to hang out, some things never change -how handsome Enzo was, or how much Y/N loved him for example- their friendship was the exact same that it had always been.

Y/N tapped her fingers anxiously on the table in the corner of the cafe where they had agreed to meet, five years had gone by and the freckled face woman still felt the same butterflies in her stomach when she was seeing him -he lived in Madrid fulltime now it made it easier for work and she was still back in Montevideo, she was working in a big time law firm, everyone knew she was gonna be a lawyer since forever, always had an argument for everything-. She looked at her phone again and sighed, he was already fifteen minutes late, he never was, she thought maybe this time, life had gotten too busy -he’s clearly not coming, don’t blame him though, he must be so busy- she thought to herself, as she was gathering her stuff to get up, she felt his hand on her shoulder and his usual kiss on the top of her head.

“Sorry fiery, I’m so late, parking in Madrid” he laughed- that oh so enchanting sound that always made her heart skip a beat-, as he sat down across from his lifelong friend. She smiled, everything was forgiven as soon as he looked at her with those dark eyes of his.

“Thought fame had finally gotten to you and you weren’t coming” she pouted while setting her phone back down, she looked at Enzo’s face, something was different, she could tell, something had been different for a bit now, and the change of scenery did nothing to apeace her mind. He rolled his eyes with a warm smile plastered on his face.

“I would never miss the chance to see my best friend are you crazy?” he smiled at the waiter as he brought over the coffee he had ordered on his way in. He took to stirring the sugar in it for way too long, trying to find the words of what he needed to tell Y/N, she looked at him, a tilt in her head, there was something wrong, she could tell, she knew him too well.

“spill it” she said keeping her eyes glued on him he chuckled “you know me to well Y/N/N” he looked up and smiled at her -here goes nothing- he thought.

“I’ve met someone… well��more than met, I have a girlfriend, her name is Marina” he smiled at the mention of her name, Y/N gulped, and forced a smile on her face- she was dying inside, but she would never let it show, not to him, not when he looked this happy. “We met a few months ago, through some mutual friends, she’s a doctor, you will love her. She loves cats and painting, just like you, I can’t wait for you to meet her” he kept rambling on about Marina, he couldn’t help himself, she was the best woman to ever walk this earth besides from Y/N, he KNEW they would get along well- he wanted them to at least, they’re both too important to him in one way or another.

Crap, you’re an idiot, you’re a fucking idiot she kept repeating to herself, Y/N felt her heart sink to the bottom of her stomach, each word her friend said taking it a bit lower, if she had only been braver on that roof when she had the chance- Smile Y/N- she reminded herself, her friend- that word stinging more than it had ever done now- was happy and that was the most important part…right? right.

And he had been right, Y/N eventually met Marina, and she was a sweetheart, and she loved Enzo, it showed, Y/N knew by the way the blonde looked at him that she loved him, because it was the same way she looked at him.

~~~~~

Y/N would be lying to herself if she said she never wished Enzo and Marina broke up, she never lost that hope, relationships not always worked out…hers didn’t at least. But they hadn’t, they seemed to be the perfect power couple, so when her Johny had told her they were getting married and asked her to be his best woman, she couldn’t say no, she had to be honest, another five years had gone by and the sinking feeling in her gut had never left, it was there every time she saw a picture on his instagram of them two, it got worse every time one of her relationships failed, it just never left.

The twenty-eight year old, fearless woman, who no one wanted to come across in court, somehow felt small and fragile while she looked at herself in the mirror and took a deep breath forcing a smile on her face while finishing her make-up “okay, listen up you”- she gave her reflection a peptalk while she got ready- “you had your chance, you were too scared to take it, it was there and you let it slip away, you have no right to ruin his happiness you’re gonna stand there, you’re gonna be the friend Enzo needs, and you’re gonna tough it out”, the last part coming out shaky as she suppressed a sob, she downed the last of her wine glass and walked out.

She knocked on his door “En, you ready?” she said slightly opening it, just enough to see the most handsome man she had ever seen standing there fidgeting with his bowtie, she laughed and walked in “come’ere, let me help” she turned him around and fixed it for him “there, handsome as ever my dear Johny” she smiled softly looking at him.

“I’m ready Junie” he smiled a warm, soft smile at her walking out and making their way to the gardens where the ceremony would take place.

As she walked down the aisle, Y/N couldn’t help but think what would have happened if she had been braver that hot day of summer ten years ago- if you had only said something, if you had spoken when you opened your mouth- she reprimanded herself as she walked and took her place beside the love of her life, not in the way she would have wanted, not in the way she still dreamt of every so often, but in the way she could.

When the music started and Marina made her way out, that’s when she finally understood, it didn’t matter what she felt, she could wonder all her life what would have happened if -she probably would if she was honest with herself for once- what would have happened if she’d only been braver, would she be the one walking down the aisle to meet the man she had loved for over ten years, the man she still loved to that day? that was something that she would never know, for now, she could only look at the Johny to her June, and fake the brightest smile as the love of her life, married the love of his.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A/N: aaarrghhh I’m so sorry about ending it on a down note, it just didn’t feel right to turn it all around, and it being inspired in those songs, wasn’t a happy ending, don’t hate me! please?

If I’d Told You

Title: If I’d Told You

Paring: Xu Minghao/ Fem!Reader

Genre: Hurt/Comfort, Fluff?,

Summary: You’ve been in love with your best friend Mingyu. But he’s marrying someone else and Minghao shows up to comfort you.

Notes: Sorry for the bad summary. Written after the song Bride or Groom by India Parkman. Not very well proofed. The beginning drags a little because I wanted to add backstory. I’m sorry. orz Also excuse me while I learn how to add a gif.

"--e or groom?" The question fazed over you as this day drew to its peak. You look up at the woman who's manning the guest list and try not to seem so lost.

"I'm sorry. What was the question?" You felt the heat of embarrassment warm your cheeks as you asked her to repeat herself.

"Bride or groom?" She asked again. Now that you knew the question you still had no idea how to even answer.

"Oh. Umm. Either? I'm friends of both."

"Alright. And you said your name was Y/N?" You nod and she writes it down. "Alright. Please head inside until it starts."

You give a slight bow of acknowledgement and headed in.

Your two best friends in this whole world were getting married. Mingyu and Ali. You had known them both since middle school. You went to high school together and then you all enrolled into the same college together. Mingyu studied Music. Ali studied art. And you studied production. Together you three were to be the ultimate team.

And then you fell in love. Mingyu and you were so close. If you needed someone to come watch that scary movie on Halloween. He was there. If you had a boyfriend break up with you and you needed a shoulder to cry on. Mingyu was there. When your father died of cancer, he was there. Ali was too of course. But the closeness you felt for Mingyu was different.

Then Ali came to you one night because she needed a friend to talk to. "Mingyu asked me on a date." She giggled a little and bit her lip as if she really wasn't sure she should be telling you. You wished she hadn't. Your world shattered. "We're going on another one tomorrow." She spent the next couple hours reminiscing about your school days and could never have imagined that Mingyu would choose her.

Most of her chattering went over your head. You tried to congratulate her with sincerity. But it was hard.

Then two years later, they got engaged. There was a huge announcement dinner with you and his music buddies. You knew most of them. You had grown close to Sungkwan and Seokmin and Soonyong. You came to learn those three could defuse a room in just a matter of moments. The only member you couldn't seem to get along with was Xu Minghao. He was always teasing you or just seemed relatively abrasive.

Of course they were all here at the wedding. Mingyu and Ali had agreed not to have any wedding maids or men of honor. They couldn't share you after all so Ali's niece was the flower girl and only Sungkwan had any nephews so they asked if he could be ring barer.

So next to Sungkwan you sat. Your gaze on Mingyu who was anxiously waiting at the alter. You couldn't look away. He was so handsome in his suit. He looked away just long enough to see you looking at him and as his oblivious nature, he smiles a thankful smile your way. Your heart catches and it takes everything out of you just to stay in your seat.

To your luck, the music starts playing. It was beautiful and nothing you'd ever heard before. Maybe he got Jihoon to write something for them. You turned as Ali came through the doors. Her dress was stunning. Scoop neck with off the shoulder sleeves. A lace overlay with a moderate train.

She didn't even second a glance at you as she walked passed. Not that you blamed her. Mingyu held her full attention.

The rest of the ceremony went by in a blur. You were definitely ready to drown yourself in cake and whatever else they serve at weddings. With the wedding being at a winery, guests were able to go in and out as they pleased but outside the chairs were moved and a few more tables were moved in to make room for people to sit out doors and the alter was changed to be a place for the bride and groom to have their first dance which wouldn't be until later.

You decided to sit outside and stabbed your fork into a roasted baby potato, paying no mind to the person who took a seat next to you. "You look thoroughly unexcited and ready to leave." You recognized the voice as Minghao. Which you simply replied to him with a sharp look before raising your facade. "I have absolutely no idea what you could be talking about. It's my best friends' wedding. Of course I'm happy to be here celebrating."

"Mhmm." Minghao gave you an incredulous look. "You know what I think you need." He paused and looked around for a moment before getting up just long enough to nab two flutes of champagne off a tray. "You need to relax." He handed the glass to you and softly clinked them together before taking a sip and ignoring the glare you were shooting in his direction.

"I heard you helped pick the flowers." Minghao said idly as he softly touched the hanging blue wisteria in front of him.

"Amongst other things." You stabbed into another piece of food and your champagne was gone almost too fast. But dutiful Minghao got her another drink and you just had to tease him. "If I didn't know any better, I might accuse you of trying to get me drunk."

Maybe it was the alcohol but you heard him chuckle and it brought a soft flush to your cheeks. "I have more class then that Y/N."

You heard another clinking sound as Mingyu walked outside and went over to the DJ booth where he was handed a microphone.

"I want to thank everyone who came here today," he started. "Ali has been planning this since before I even proposed. If you can believe that." He teased and the crowd let out a soft laugh. "I also want to thank..." there was a pause as he held his glass up and looked around at everyone, smiling, and you sucked in a sharp breath, "all of my friends who helped us. Who supported us. We will treasure all of you." He raised his glass and took a sip as everyone clapped and handed the mic back to the DJ before returning to Ali. The music started, signaling the bride and grooms dance.

You couldn't stay. You tossed back your champagne and tired to slip away before the tears could come.

"Y/N. Wait a moment." Minghao called you but you felt you'd been completely abandoned. You grabbed another glass on your way and downed that just as fast.

"Hey hey hey. Let me help." Minghao didn't think you could get drunk off only a few glasses of champagne (that he knew of) but he didn't like the risk. "Come on. I'll give you a ride." He saw Sungkwan start to head over but he shook his head and guided you out the door.

You managed to make it to the car before you let out a sharp scream and then the tears started to flow. "I helped them with everything! The flowers! The caterer! Her dress! His tux! I did it ALL." You simply yelled into the void before putting your head in your hands and sobbed.

Minghao helped to buckle you in and drove you to the hotel that the guests were staying at. By the time you got there, your eyes were red and swollen but you had stopped crying. You figured you had just run out of tears to cry.

"Will you be alright?" Minghao actually sounded concerned. Something he had never done for you before. Usually he called you stupid for caring too much about the small stuff. It took a moment but you looked up and met his gaze. "Can you...stay with me? Just for a little while."

You didn't want to be alone tonight. You needed someone who understood and you were thankful that he agreed. "Just until you're asleep."

He was surprisingly doting. He guided you to the couch and brought you a glass of water before sitting down next to you. "Do you want to talk about it?"

Tears formed just at the thought of it all and you were about to speak when you heard your phone vibrate. Minghao was kind enough to retrieve it but instead of giving it to you, you saw his jaw flex and he answered it.

"Hey Mingyu." You felt sick.

"No. She's alright."

"I don't think that's a good idea. Enjoy your wedding and she'll call you when she's ready." And he hung up. Simple as that. You stared at him dumbfounded as he turned your cellphone off.

"Thank you." You said weakly and once he sat back down next to you, you laid your head on his shoulder. Minghao went slightly stiff under the contact but being so exhausted, you didn't notice.

"Should we get you more comfortable?" He cleared his throat a little and stood back up, heading for the bathroom. You were about to ask if you had done something when he came back out with your entire bathroom kit. He took out the make up wipes and helped clean your face off. It felt much better then you ever would admit. He helped you take your hair down. And while you changed, he refilled your water glass and set it by the bed.

"I said I'd stay until you fell asleep but..." He looked around before going to get the chair they kept at the desk in the hotel room.

Feeling awful you patted the bed. "Just sit here." You saw him shift but give a resigned sigh and sat on the other side of the queen sized bed.

"Why don't you tell me everything and I'll listen?"

The words hung there for a little bit. Your brain whirled as you weren't sure where to start. Or how to start. But eventually it just poured out.

"I was so stupid. I was so in love with him." Your voice quivered as you fought another round of tears. "If I had told him sooner...do you think it would have made a difference?" You didn't really want an answer and Minghao knew it. He let his hand leave his side and he brushed a few fingers through your hair.

"I don't know. But I do know you're definitely stupid." Your head shot up and you pouted at him. Minghao had to restrain a chuckle. For awhile now he kept looking and looking and looking for an excuse to meet up with Y/N. He knew he always picked on you. But he had seen that being nice to you like Kwan, Seokmin, and Soon got a guy nowhere. He knew he could barely compete with Mingyu (everyone saw the way you looked at him). He ruffled your hair a little. "Don't worry. Love makes people do stupid things so you're not alone."

You relaxed a little at his jest and with the silence that fell, you felt sleep start to wash over you. "Hao...?" You called out sleepily and waited for his soft hum of reply, "Thank you for being here."

Minghao softly chuckled. Gods above he thought you were so damn cute. "Like I said. Love makes us do stupid things." He murmured into the room and knew you were to sleepy to understand and once you were asleep he leaned over and placed a soft kiss to your temple. "I'll be here until morning."

------------------------------------------

Light filtered through the blinds and stirred you awake. A headache was forming but you didn't know if it was from the drinks or the crying. Not that it mattered. Then you remembered Minghao and sat up with a start. "He's not here." You murmured to yourself and tried not to cry again. For some reason if felt like you were being abandoned again. You didn't have much time to process this as your hotel door clicked open and you jumped out of bed with a gasp. Who could possibly have a key?

Minghao jumped slightly when he saw you hiding behind the wall. "What are you doing there?" He sounded exasperated as he placed a bag down on the table and started to unpack food. "I hope you don't mind. I grabbed your key and wanted to be back before you woke up."

You felt your heart swell. "Not at all. I appreciate it."

You two ate in relative silence before he put his food down. "Y/N. I want to ask you something." You hummed so he knew you were listening. "I know you're getting over Mingyu but I want to ask you. Will you let me help you?"

You started to cough a little as you had inhaled your food over his words. "You what?"

You looked at him stunned and watched him turn his entire body and attention to you. "Will you go on a date with me?"

This was it. This was your chance! If the last 24 hours had taught you anything, it was that Minghao was a good guy. That his teasing was his way of caring. You started to realize that his poking fun was his way of getting close to you but you had just been so blinded by Mingyu.

You hummed a thoughtful hum as you set your food down and pretended to look like you were thinking. "On two conditions."

"Name it." He tried not to look too excited as he waited for you to continue.

"One: No kisses until the second date." You saw him pout but you giggled. "Two: This is date number one." He laughed at that and it was the sweetest thing you had heard in a long time.

"Deal."

Forever Best-Friend

Author: @crowleysgirl67

Word Count: 588

Parings/Characters: Aziraphale x Nathaniel (OFC), Crowley

Warnings: angst, A/N:Feedback is greatly appreciated. Inspired by the song Bride or groom- India Parkman, song lyrics in bold, also changed to fit my idea

Crowley took a swig of whiskey from the flask before exiting his Bentley. Straightening his cuff-links he Steeled himself to walk into the venue.

"Welcome!" A cheerful human girl greets him as he walks in. "Are you with the Aziraphale party or the other groom, Nathaniel?"

Crowley's heart clenched at his Angel's name. Clearing his throat he answers, " Uh Aziraphale."

"Great, sit to the right and enjoy the ceremony!" She points to the doors.

But it's time to face the music

So like some awful dream

I move my feet and take my seat and wait for it to end

And the i see his best

Crowley all but winces as he follows her direction and takes his seat in the front row. Some beautiful classical music begins to play and he turns to see Aziraphale in a white suit that all but glitters in the light of the almost setting sun.

Aziraphale sees him and smiles, giving a small wave. Heart breaking a bit more Crowley smiles back despite the heartache.

The couple walks down the aisle arm in arm and the ceremony begins just as the sun starts to set behind them. The red and orange hue paints a beautiful backdrop against the flowered arch of the garden venue. To everyone else it was a breathtaking, beautiful sight. To Crowley it was angelic and the most heart wrenching sight in existence. Hell, his fall, none of it compared to the torture he was enduring now.

I can't help but wonder

If I'd told you sooner

Would I be where he is now?

Maybe I'm by your side

In another life

In a fog he follows the crowd to the reception area. Sitting at the bar alone he watches the speeches. Aziraphale catches his eye briefly and his heart leaps into his throat. He could have sworn he was going to say his name.

The flaming sword cuts deeper as he watches the first dance. The music, not a first choice for his angel and not something he would have chosen if it were him and Aziraphale getting married. He closes his eyes and shakes his head at the thought. It was too late for that now. He was married to another angel now.

I see your face, it's clear as day

You love him and it shows

It's time I let you go

“Crowley! You made it. Thank you for coming.” Aziraphale beams as Crowley approaches them in the party line.

“I said I would and I did. Congratulations.” the word burns in his throat as he says it, as do the next ones as he lies out his ass. “I’m happy for you angel.”

“Thank you.” Aziraphale smiles, glancing at his husband. The love on his face made Crowley die a little more inside.

This is goodbye

Crowley chats a little while longer before bidding goodbye and driving away in his car. He had to leave, he couldn’t ruin his best-friend; the love of his existence day by the explosion of emotions coursing through him.

Anguish an indescribable amount, rage at himself; at the cards dealt; at the world he loved as much as the angel.

The emotions built up and he pulled over and staggered out of the car and into the woods. He fell to his knees and screamed.

Forever doomed to be the best-friend, because even if it killed him he would never abandon Aziraphale. So, for as long as they both existed, he’d be by his side.

This is goodbye

This is goodbye.
