BTS of #RWRBMovie: cakegate

From Collider:

ML: "It was hundreds of extras, it was cake, it was a vision, it was choreography through space, and it was a lot of dialogue. That was three days of me, just gritting my teeth. I can’t tell you that I had fun on those three days. I knew that I had to get it right, in so many different ways. But I had a great team, and I had Nick and Taylor, and we got through those days. When people see the movie, you don’t see all the real effort that went into that filming that scene."

From AV Club:

The entire wedding reception scene took three days to shoot on location at the Royal Naval College in London (which served as the setting for the receiving line) and Goldsmiths’ Hall in the city’s financial district (where the reception takes place). But López began preparing for it long before he got to the set. Together with production designer Miren Marañón, he tested the physics of bringing down the cake using models and filming smaller cakes in motion to see how they would fall. “We were really scientific about it,” he says. “Would it slide? Would it tumble? Is it sort of like a tree coming down or does it break apart? What we decided was that actually what happens is not necessarily Alex knocks over the cake, Alex breaks the table, which then sends it over. We realized that it was a question of a cascading series of events leading to the cake falling on them.” Taylor Zakhar Perez, who plays Alex, and Nicholas Galitzine, who plays Henry, were both game for anything when it came to the physicality of the scene. To help block the sequence for maximum comedic effect, López brought on theater director Cal McCrystal, who had previously worked as a physical comedy consultant on the Paddington films. The actors rehearsed with McCrystal to get each beat of the scene right before Alex is knocked into the table, which was rigged with hydraulics to make it collapse on cue. The crew spent a day and a half filming the reception before it came time to tackle the cake scene. There were two cakes created for the scene, a fake one made of foam and latex that could not only hold up under the lights for long periods of time but safely be dropped on the actors without injuring them, and a real one made of sponge and buttercream frosting to dump on them once they hit the ground. “We shot the scene many times with the fake one coming down, just this big cake coming down on top of them,” López says. “We shot it from all different angles. Then we reached the point of no return and we had to drop actual cake on them.”

That’s where the fun part came in. The crew brought in several white industrial “buckets of buttercream” frosting and chunks of real cake to throw on top of the actors. “We set up three cameras, and my production designer and I carefully lined up the shot. And I counted to three and we tossed the cake into their faces.” The cast and crew had planned to film the scene multiple times, and there was time built into the shooting schedule for the actors to shower and change into clean costumes in between takes, a process that could potentially take up to an hour. But, according to López, in the end it wasn’t necessary. “That first take we hit the bullseye. And I went back to look at it with my director of photography and my producers, and I’m looking at it and I’m like, we have it. Let’s move on. Let’s not waste our time. One take of hitting their faces, and then we just got the rest of it.” López describes the mood on set that day as “very, very focused” but there was still a sense that they were creating something special. It turned out to be one of his favorite days on set. Even the background players, many of whom were themselves in the cake splash zone, erupted in applause once it was finished. “The boys were in a very good mood, which helped. But I think, for an actor, it’s like the ultimate fantasy, right? As a kid, you want to be in an enormous food fight. And then here they are getting paid to be covered in cake. So yeah, it was the most technical bit of filmmaking we had to do on this movie. That said, everybody, for as focused as they were, everybody was in a very good mood that day. And it must be said that we had a lot of fun.”

From EW:

In the film's opening sequence, Galitzine's Henry and Taylor Zakhar Perez's Alex, the First Son of the United States, create an international incident after a spat leads them to crash into and destroy a royal wedding cake. In the process, they both become utterly covered in cake and frosting. But Galitzine didn't find it so bad. "You would get quite peckish throughout the day," he tells EW in an interview conducted prior to the SAG-AFTRA strike. "The fact that you could just have a snack peeling off your body, you can have a little nibble there, was super convenient." Things got even messier when the crew tried to turn the sequence into a food fight. "A lot of the crew were very keen to get involved and throw cake at us in the second half when the cake's already hit us," says Galitzine. "But it was a really fun experience getting to work within that physical comedy space, very slapstick with icing on the suit, then the whiskey being used to dab the suit, and the cake coming down on top of us." Galitzine could, at least, clean up relatively quickly once they wrapped — the English estate where they were filming had a shower upstairs that the cast could access. "Afterwards, I went and stood in the shower for a good half an hour," he says, with a laugh. But he still couldn't escape the cake. "Even that evening and the next morning, I'd find something in my ear or behind my ears, and be like, 'What is that?'" he explains. "And it was bits of icing. I didn't eat those."

From CineMagna:

NG: The cake dropping scene was probably one of the most fun scenes to film. It was just such a couple days. First of all, I just love being with the rest of the cast. It’s just mostly been Taylor and me throughout the entire process, but when you get to really spend time with the other actors, it’s just so much fun, the group of us together. There was so much pomp within this room. We had about 200 extras dressed to the nines, and just the act of this cake falling on top of us is just a very bizarre day at work that most people don’t get to experience.

i love the cakes that you order for your birthdays and to this day the ‘still alive’ one is one of my favorite designs ever. may i ask if you have pictures of any other that you got saved and you’d be willing to share them here? or perhaps disclose the bakery name? thank you so so much in advance. hope you had a nice time for your birthday and have the prettiest day today as well!

i started ordering cakes when i was 24 (it was a cursed anniversary, hence the “still alive”) but since then i’ve only had a couple with text. 25 was textless because i couldn’t find anyone to make me a cake, but least year i had “26 not dead”

the last two years have been from ‘lolas’ (26 was a collection cake, smores flavoured! 27 was a postal cake since we no longer have a collection point, and is chocolate/raspberry). the “still alive” cake was from a london based bakery called ‘cutter & squidge’ and was really good, but the following october i ordered a halloween cake and it arrived smashed, then they stopped shipping them 🥲

heartily recommend the silly text cake tradition though

#answers #thank you for the well wishes!

helloo could I ask for some fluffy coffee shop AU fics? not just coffee shop but one of those that involve a shop of some sort, like a bakery or flower shop or tattoo parlor etc.

something like

"The Book Hoarder, the Flower Grower and the Latte Art Maker" by AnnaTheHank

"the demon next door" by ghost_daddy

"All You Knead Is Love" by fumi_faust and Writer_Maxtli

and "Angel in the Window" by themaybedoctor

I'm not that experienced in looking for things on ao3 so I'm hoping you could help me find more like these? thanks :)

We have tags for these! #coffee shop au, #florist au, #bakery au, #tattooist au. Here are a bunch that I don't think are on those tags already...

New Canvas by NaroMoreau (T)

There's someone new in the shop across the street that Aziraphale can't stop looking at.

Inklings and Asters by GreenCat42 (G)

Crowley has noticed the cute tattoo shop owner since he moved in next door with his flower shop. It takes him forever to get the courage up to go talk to him, and when he does, well he gets a new tattoo out of it and possibly more.

A rockstar's love by The_boxhead (G)

Crowley had a lot of problems finding someone to have a relationship with as the famous rockstar that he is. But that day when he entered that coffee shop and saw that blond haired man behind the counter, he didn’t want more than to get to know that beautiful angel with that cute smile.

Ways to Make You Smile by WickedWriter (M)

Crowley has always been awkward around anyone who he develops feelings for. While Aziraphale is always nice to him, he can't help but screw things up when trying to flirt. But when he starts making latte art to impress his angel, it was only a matter of time before he found a way to cock things up again.

Anthophilia by FortinbrasFTW (M)

Anthony J. Crowley's life seems like it's finally falling into place: his floral shop has begun to gain an undercurrent of appreciation in the design elite of London, and he might have even finally found a boyfriend who looks just right lounging on his Tenreiro sofa. Things seem almost perfect, until one day the empty shop across the street is leased to frumpy fellow Oxford alumni, who doesn't seem to remember Crowley nearly as well as he remembers him, which really shouldn't bother him as much as it does - it was ten years ago after all, and it wasn't even that good of a kiss.

Icing on the Cake by Etheostoma (E)

Anthony Crowley's bakery is top in Soho and quickly becoming well-renowned throughout all of London. When Crowley hires the soft-spoken, cherubic Aziraphale as his main decorator, it doesn’t take long before the two men realize that there may just be something to the idea that opposites attract... Or, the bakery AU that no one actually asked for.

Ben Barnes x reader who's in her 20s and Ben likes her one day he couldn't control himself and says it like "I know I'm older but I still love you" idk something like this?!?

Hi sorry for the delay, I'm on break from taking requests but I'm not going to abandon your request. So here's a taste of the dynamic between Ben and (Name) as I figure out what to put together. Just some headcanons whilst I work on your story.

- (Name) being a Young millennial/Millennial Z.

- I can imagine reader being an Actress and a singer herself rising through the ranks due to her unique talent.

- Ben and (Name) first met through mutual friends.

- In fact, they met at the Troubadour where Ben was actually performing that night.

- (Name) was also invited to perform as well.

- My girl did Rock music. And did she have some serious pipes.

- Ben could not look away from her performance. He thought she looked so ethereal but at the same time so enticing under the blue and dim lighting of the stage.

- The way she strummed her guitar to impossible notes made her look like a Metal Goddess.

- When the show was over Ben had the chance to introduce himself through a friend of his who conveniently knew her as well.

- He felt shy to approach such an intimidating but captivating young woman.

- He found her to be very attractive and quite adorable actually. With her highlighted hair, smokey eyeshadow with glitter, dressed in a black sheer lace top with a dark bra underneath and a pair of dark jeans and laced doc marten boots.

- Immediately fast friends when they started exchanging dirty jokes (Ben can be a hound dog for sure).

- Ben enjoys to cook and share with his friends and after getting to know (Name), he's insistent that she joins him for dinner (with some friends, of course...it wasn't a date...not yet).

- When she first came to dinner she brought over some special dessert from her culture (Whatever ethnic background she is; I'd imagine it being Flan/Basbousa/Avocado ice cream/Ube cake...etc. could be any)

- Ben loved her dessert. Made it official that she introduces more ethnic desserts to his colonizer palate.

- Ben saw something unique in (Name): she was so funny, eccentric, talented, free spirited, and crazy but in a good way.

- It wasn't long before they'd coincidentally worked together staring in the Marvel series 'The Punisher'.

- I'd imagine (Name)'s character being the sister to Frank Castle and there is some sort of chemistry between her and Billy Russo.

- (Name) doesn't know this but Ben has actually watched her films and series.

- After meeting her for the first time, he grew curious about her work and explored her films and music, and immediately became enamored by her method of acting and her lyrics.

- Her first time to explore London, Ben is there as well and offers to show her around.

- When he took her to the Harry Potter store (Name) couldn't help but mention how he would've been perfect for a Harry Potter film:

"Ha ha not you too."

"Yes, me too. I've seen your old pictures and you would've been the perfect Sirius Black. Ugh what a wasted opportunity but too late, you're...oooold." She'd exaggeratingly say the last bit in a grim voice.

"I am not old you just happened to be born really late."

"That's what an old person would say."

- His contact name on her phone would be 'Shadow Daddy' (She just had to since his character, General Kirigan, was trending like crazy)

- It was a slow start between the two. Starting off as friends but then things between the two became serious.

-Serious how?

Having dinner together with just each other.

Visiting each other's designated trailers.

Going to London's famous bookstores and exploring great literature.

Ben and (Name) would even do a music sesh or duet some songs together.

She even got to meet his family.

He met her family as well.

- I can imagine (Name) being well versed in technology.

- Young Millennial Zs are just good to adapting to new technologies and constructing their own system units. So it's only natural that she's good at it as well.

- She's also a pro at video games. Like really good that she makes misogynistic, fascist pigs cry like little bitches.

- Like the chick has her own customized mug/tumbler that reads 'FASCIST TEARS'.

- A total badass in Call of Duty (Warzone), Overwatch, Dead by Daylight, Dying Light, Friday the 13th, League of Legends, etc. Don't mess with her.

- Ben one time heard her lay down some serious trash talk and come backs at a bunch of sexist, misogynistic 'men'. (He had spare keys to her place and found her preoccupied in her gaming room)

"Woah! Are you a gamer girl?! Send me some titty pics, bitch"

"You can't handle my melons, bitch. If you're looking for some titty action go back to sucking your mama's. Annoying ass brat."

"This game ain't for girrrllls! Go back to the kitchen and make me a fucking sandwich!"

*Soon after he said that (Name) would constantly headshot his lame ass character barely even touching her or landing a shot at her*

"What the fuck?!Nah Nah, fucking bitch is cheating!"

"Ha ha ha! You fucking suck man. I don't think this game is for you so how 'bout you go to the kitchen and make my fucking sandwich."

- Oh yeah, (Name) is a major savage when ripping into those assholes.

- She was surprised Ben found her like that and felt embarrassed. She was worried he would find it appalling with spoke... Ben was such a composed fella and her... she was basically the devil incarnate ready to erupt and drink the blood of her enemies.

- But her worries went away when Ben chuckled at the scene he had witnessed and asked if she was okay (in a nice way) She'd later explained about how she was being insulted online and it made Ben worried.

- She told him not to worry and that she handled well by kicking their ass.

- Ben's not a gamer (I think) but he was really impressed with how she put down those sexist assholes.

- He found it kind of hot.

"Well that was an...interesting reaction, ha ha ha!"

"Stop laughing! I feel so embarassed that you had to see me that way!"

"I have to admit I found it quite cute how you swore at the screen. Ha ha, you looked like an angry chihuahua. Ha ha ha!"

"Ha Ha very funny"

"Alright, I'm just teasing you. I just hope you won't get into trouble"

"Nonsense. Besides...they only try and get my account reported for 'cheating'. It's not my fault they deliberately suck at playing."

"You are really good... It almost feels unfair."

"You say that because you've never beaten me at Mario Kart to this day."

"I've been practicing whilst I was away filming. So I'd like to think now I'm close to beating you."

"Ooh ho ho. Big talk eh. I'd like to see you try. Prepare to lose...again!"

- The two also enjoyed teasing one another that it gave everyone the impression that they were couple. Heck even their parents thought there was something more between the two.

- Ben laughed it off when his parents told him and he denied saying that he was too old for her. But they thought differently.

- (Name)'s mom was rooting for them (aww bless her) and her dad well...He didn't mind Ben but that was his sweet baby girl. To him, Ben was corrupting his sweet, innocent, little 'angel' baby (Ahahaha he can't see it clearly that his daughter is basically the devil who thrives on Cyberbullying fascist gamers... Yeaahh, an 'angel' for sure but there's nothing wrong with putting down toxic gamers. The girl is basically considered a saint in the gamer girl community)

- Sure there was a bit of a large age gap between the two but his parents had no qualms against whom he dated as long they treated him well. And they believed (Name) was the right fit for him.

- Ben would also invite her to one of his recording sessions and let her listen to him sing and play his piano.

- She would also invite to him to her recording studio to witness her play and come up with new songs.

- She'd be in awe of his talent and it would not go unnoticed by Ben which just bolstered his ego and made him flustered at the same time.

"Enjoy the show?"

"You were amazing! I mean... You all were amazing." She included the rest of the musicians who played by his side.

"Thanks, I'm happy to hear that."

"I heard that you're putting a lot of focus into your music since you didn't have the time to do so?"

"Yeah. I've put it off for a while since I wasn't so sure at the time but..."

"You're doing great and I'm not just saying that as a friend. It may seem late but you've put in a lot of work and creativity into it. I'd say all these years you just had some pent up creativity storming through that head of yours."

"Thanks that means a lot. I appreciate it."

"Happy to help. Ooh now that you're a rising musician does that mean I can be one of your groupies?!"

"Ha ha ha you can be so ridiculous!"

"That's what you love about me."

"You have no idea."

- Ben doesn't understand it yet but he always looked forward to (Name)'s words of encouragement and unwavering support as he trekked through the world of music.

- Despite the age difference the two shared their worlds and experience with one another and it brought them closer and closer.

Top 5 Paul boyfriends

omg marry me

(these are in no particular order)

-Robert Fraser aka Groovy Bob aka Paul’s emotional support art dealer/drug dealer/fag :’) Most interesting man of the swinging London era! There’s something so special and soft about how Paul always talks about Robert. “I expect people to die so I don't feel a loss but there's a vacuum where he used to be.” And in a letter sent from Paul to Robert when Robert was in prison from The Rolling Stones drug bust, “Jane sends her love, love, and is baking a file cake. I send mine.” aughhh <\3

-Tara Browne… I wish there was more written about him! We know he was very important to Paul. He was the person Paul first took acid with and was with Paul in the Great Liverpool Moped Accident of ‘65! I always wondered why Paul invited him to Liverpool for his family holiday asdkskj. Paul describes him as “a nice Irish guy, very sensitive bloke. I’d see him from time to time, and enjoyed being around him.” which is basically a declaration of passionate love in paul-speak.

-Peter Asher! Underrated Paul boyfriend. I’m not saying Paul only stayed with Jane as long as he did because he had a whole thing for her family… but I’m not NOT saying that. The songs he gave him! The wrapping paper he designed and kept secret as a gift to Peter and the Indica gallery!

(I’ll also just mention Paul’s never ending kink for high society types. He loved hearing Robert talk about his time at Eton, specifically the ‘fagging system’. Tara was heir to the Guinness fortune, not to mention son of a member of the House of Lords. The whole Asher family was a wet dream come true.)

-Denny Laine (is in my ears and in my eyes..🎶) listen. LISTEN. Look at any picture of Paul, Linda, and Denny in the wings era and tell me they weren’t a god’s honest throuple. You can’t. I know it in my life’s blood they got it on down and dirty for YEARS. Linda especially is allll over him in so many pictures and I don’t blame her! He’s a cutie! But they all had fuck-nasty sex.

-John Lennon. Yes, the world’s greatest and most tragic love story etc etc. fanfic tropes galore! Meet cute, mutual pining, only one bed, father doesn’t approve, found family, let’s run away together etc etc

Me: so anyway John had mommy issues and Paul had daddy issues. And John was sort of daddy and Paul was sort of mommy but they just weren’t enough for each other. They were somehow the most and least compatible people on the planet but the love was there and it changed everything.

My mom: 👁️👄👁️

#it’s killing me not to add George and Ringo #BUT they weren’t exactly boyfriends as much as the others #ringo is the number one boyfriend of current Paul tho btw #and I could wax poetic about George and Paul’s relationship and how it was as romantic as j&ps #ask #lmao I know this was a joke ask but I took this so seriously

Chocolate Cake | R.L.

Enjoying the first evening in the flat you bought with Remus by eating chocolate cake on the floor — remus x gn!reader fluff

warnings: none :) just some tooth-rotting cake and fluff

words: 1.2k

"Are you ready?" Remus asked, holding the key inside the lock to your new flat, waiting to turn it and open the door.

"Yes! Open it!" You replied, anxious and giddy to experience the feeling of the first day of your life with your boyfriend.

"Alright." He said, turning the key and opening the cherry door, revealing your cosy London flat.

The flat was small and was definitely in need of a few repairs and some remodelling, but you were both ecstatic about it because it was yours. You let out a small noise of glee as you marvelled at the fact that the flat was now yours, and Remus stared at you with stars in his eyes.

Remus has always adored how passionate and excited you get at the smallest of things since even before you started dating. He loves how happy you get when you find something you really like, and he was so glad this tiny studio you bought made you excited like that.

And even though you had been in the building before, the feeling now that you had bought it was unlike any other.

"So you like it?" Your boyfriend asked with a wide grin.

"I love it!" You said, turning to him and embracing the young man in a tight hug. "I love you so much."

"I love you too." He whispered into your head as you held each other close.

You separated, and both looked around the nearly empty flat.

"We'll have to bring in our furniture, maybe buy some new stuff. But, right now, there's a stove, a fridge, and like a bathroom." Remus pointed out.

Honestly, you wouldn't have cared if the furniture was made out of cat hair. You were just so excited and awestruck that you were inside your new home with your amazing boyfriend.

"I'm going to make us a cake." You declared with a smile on your face. "To celebrate us and our new home."

✦✧✦✧✦

After a half hour or so, you pulled your freshly made cake out of the oven, which was practically the only appliance in your new home. The cake was steaming hot, but you were both impatient, and used a bit of magic to cool down. As it cooled even more, you got started on making a quick chocolate frosting while Remus watched while holding you close from behind.

Once you had finished mixing the frosting, you scooped out a small spoonful and held it up to Remus' mouth, offering him a taste. He refused to let his large hands leave its wrap around your hips, instead he just leant into your hand and licked the spoon.

"You won't even let go to taste the frosting?" You asked him.

"Nope. Just want to hold you like this."

You let out a small giggle as you leaned back into his chest some more. "You're going to have to let go in a second when I frost the cake."

"Ugh." He sighed, letting go of you. "But, I'll be back."

"I don't doubt it." You giggled, moving the bowl of frosting to the cake and starting to decorate it.

You decided to go with a simple design ⁠—⁠ mainly because you just moved in and didn't have any decorating supplies — of just some plain swirls of the chocolate frosting made with a spoon on the sides of the cake. You also tried to hurry it along since you saw Remus beside you, impatiently eyeing both you and the dessert like a child at a candy store.

"Here it is." You said, flashing your boyfriend a smile as you grabbed two plates, two forks, and a knife out of one of your boxes.

"I just realised, we don't even have a table yet." Remus commented, looking around the empty kitchen of your even emptier flat.

"So?" You said, handing him the first slice. "We have the floor."

"We're just going to eat on the floor?"

"Why not?"

You sat down cross-legged on the ground, placing your plate beside you as you held up a hand to invite Remus to sit with you. He agreed, slowly dropping down to your level.

"Okay, you need to have the first bite." You insisted, looking at him with a lovesick excitement in your eyes.

He took a bite happily, and his eyes widened as he tasted it.

"How is it?" You asked him nervously.

"Love, this is the best cake I've ever had."

"Really?" You beamed.

"Absolutely, I love it. I love you."

You sat up a bit to reach him and place a loving kiss on his neck before promptly starting to eat your slice of cake.

You stared even more at him as you both ate the fresh dessert on the floor of your new place, and you just couldn't help but admire everything about him.

"I don't think I've ever been more in love with you than I am right now." You said, seemingly out of nowhere. You just felt the need to say exactly what you were thinking.

"Eating chocolate cake on the floor of our kitchen that has yet to be furnished?"

"Eating chocolate cake with you on the floor of our new home." You said, fixing what he had said. "Don't make it sound like nothing, I love this."

You leaned over, kissing him on the cheek as he swallowed a bite of cake, his eyes fixated on you.

"And I love you." You added, then sat back down.

"Marry me." He said softly.

"What?" You asked with a small chuckle, not sure if he was being serious or not.

He set down his plate beside the two of you and knelt in front of you, gently moving your head so your gaze would follow him. He took your hands into his as he spoke softly to you.

"Love, I want to marry you." He promised. "I've never been more in love with you, and I want to stay like this forever. I want you to make me your husband. I want you to be mine, and I yours, for the rest of our lives. (y/n), will you marry me?"

You honestly still couldn't believe what was happening, but you snapped out of your racing thoughts to give him your immediate answer.

"Yes, yes, of course! Oh my, Remus, absolutely, yes!" You said excitedly, positively beaming at the prospect of having Remus as your husband.

You dropped your almost-empty plate to the ground as you practically leapt up to shower him with kisses. You straddled his lap and wrapped your arms around him, as he enclosed your torso in a similar embrace.

"Rem, you have no idea how long I've been wanting you to ask me that." You said, taking a breath in between kisses.

He smiled and looked into your eyes, mesmerised by you. "You have no idea how long I've been wanting to ask you that"

After being kidnapped, dumped at WRU, and shipped to the USA, Cass isn't having a good time. And then Tyrone takes him to be his ring-fighting Guard Dog, alongside Aaliyah, a Romantic he already owns. Now he's definitely not having a good time, and nor is Aaliyah.

Pets of the Silver Screen

In the silent film era and the early days of the WRU, young pet number 95, real name Eloise, is bought by film producer Hayes Fletcher to star in his productions. A few years later, he hires Agatha from Foster Montgomery to be her stunt double (read: to scar in scenes where it's necessary, because Eloise is too valuable), and the two young woman strike up a somewhat unwilling friendship.

Over a decade of working on- and off-screen later, it's the roaring twenties, pet liberation is starting to grow, and they're more than ready to leave. Enter Ira Waterhouse – a woman who's had just about enough of the pet industry and is willing to take in two runaways.

But WRU is expanding, and running a newly-acquired safehouse in London's docklands isn't a piece of cake. Especially when the two former pets Ira's running it with are a) famous, b) wanted for burning down a film studio, and c) even more traumatised than she originally assumed...

I'D LIE

i don't think that passenger seat

has ever looked this good to me

she tells me about her night

and i count the colors in her eyes

christian felt as if he was starring as the male lead in a cliche romantic comedy. It was set in london, about two best friends that were in love with each other but in this movie, he called life, he was definite that you did not return the same feelings that he had for you.

the two of you sat in his parked car overlooking london, indulging in some chinese takeout as you animatedly recalled your date the previous night to him.

you had idiotically given your obnoxious coworker a chance to take you out, having grown tired of him persistently asking.

and you instantly regretted it.

recollecting memories of the event, you told christian how you had rolled your eyes countless of times last night you had feared that at any moment they were going to get permanently stuck.

your co-worker was the definition of a loser, and you had hit rock bottom in the dating pool for allowing him to be graced with your presence.

christian listened thoroughly to your rambling, yet he couldn’t stop thinking about how beautiful you looked in the passenger seat.

she'll never fall in love she swears

as she runs her fingers through her hair

i’m laughing 'cause I hope she's wrong

and i don't think it ever crossed her mind

she tells a joke i fake a smile

that I know all her favorite songs

“I’m never going to fall in love, i swear.” you frustratedly whispered, brushing your hair out of your face as you stabbed your sesame chicken with your chopsticks. this was your fourth failed attempt at actually meeting a decent guy, you seem to only attract bottom of the barrel men.

christian half-heartedly laughed but he could swear he heard his heart break a little; he hoped you were wrong.

he ponders on how long it will take you to realize that he was standing right there, waiting for you to open your eyes, for you to love him back.

christian didn't know how long he would be waiting for you to come to your senses, but promised himself he was in for the long haul.

“hey, how about we listen to some one direction? i know how much you love them” christian bargained, wanting to get you out of your gloomy mood. "i promise not to play their last album. i know how upset you get over zayn's departure."

christian would've done anything to bring back the smile he loved so much, even it meant listening to the british boy band for hours.

I could tell you her favorite colors green

she loves to argue, born on the seventeenth

her sister's beautiful, she has her father's eyes

and if you ask me if i love her, i’d lie

christian watched as you flipped through the color palette, needing to decide on a color for your birthday cake, you two stood in the bakery located in your hometown. he knew you were going to choose the same color you've chosen for three years in a row, sage green. it had been your favorite color ever since you were little, the love for the color had caused you at one point to dye your hair the color.

“y/n, c’mon. just choose the green.” he argued, you two had been standing in the bakery for forty-five minutes now simply because you couldn’t choose between the sage green and lilac purple. even though the both of you knew you were going to choose the color you always navigate to. “you are just going to choose it anyway."

“no i am not!” you argued back, placing the two colors side by side as you determined which one you liked best.

christian felt as if you secretly loved to argue with him, always having a quick comeback to any comment he made.

“y/n, your birthday is the seventeenth, you don’t have time to be indecisive. pick a damn color.”

“I’m going to choose the sage green.” you sweetly told the baker, ignoring the cocky smirk that appeared on christian’s face next to you.

as you discussed the cake design you pictured for your birthday party, christian couldn’t help but admire your features.

you were the definition of perfection in his eyes. his heart had jumped out of his chest when he saw you for the first time at tammy's going away party. it had felt as if all the air in his lungs began to disintegrate.

growing up, you confided into christian about how you were always told by boys how beautiful your sister was. never being on the receiving end of their compliments.

christian wasn’t blind, your sister was an attractive young lady, but she wasn’t you.

she didn't have your eyes, the eyes that you inherited from your father, the ones that held so much life and love in them.

she didn't have your nose, the one that cutely crinkles when you found something disgusting, like ketchup.

she didn't have your smile, the one that lit up any room that you entered.

she didn't have christian's heart, the one you didn't even know you were in possesion of.

deep into conversation with the baker about how red velvet was the ultimate birthday cake flavor an older had approached christian.

gently tapping him on the shoulder causing him to turn his head and look down at her sweetly.

“your wife is awfully pretty, young man.” she beamed, gummy smiling at you, still talking to the baker, now with your eyebrows furrowed together trying to get him to understand your reasoning on the choice.

"oh she isn't my wife, ma'am. just best friends."

“son, i’ve been around long enough to know you don’t just look at your best friend like that.”

christian didn't understand how everyone could see he was in love with you, but you had remained oblivious.

she looks around the room

innocently overlooks the truth

shouldn't a light go on?

doesn't she know i’ve had her memorized for so long?

your birthday had quickly approached. your party was in full swing but something had been missing, or rather someone.

you stood on your tippy toes trying to locate christian, you had yet been able to properly talk to him tonight, having been swarmed the minute you had entered your "surpise" party.

when your eyes finally settle on the familiar head full of curly brown hair, you noticeably exhale a sigh of relief.

if your sister saw you in this exact moment she would have annoyed you to no end, always compelling you about christian and yours unspoken emotions towards each other. you'd just brush her off and assure to her that he did not feel that way about you.

christian's eyes memorized your attire the second they set on you. you had worn simple little black dress to celebrate your birthday, it was something so simple, but it had made look phenomenal.

she sees everything black and white

never let nobody see her cry

i don't let nobody see me wishing she was mine

an hour into the party, christian saw you quickly excused yourself when your slimy of an ex-boyfriend had shown up uninvited with a leggy blonde tucked to his side.

your relationship with elliot, your ex, had ended in complete bloodshed and had caused you to lose the color in your eyes, now only seeing everything in black and white.

christian placed his drink down and excused himself from the small circle he was conversing with as he hurriedly followed behind you into the back of the restaurant.

he followed the small sniffles and found you with your head leaned againist the wall, trying to soothe your cries.

“i never liked him, y/n” christian confessed, mimicking your exact position but instead his eyes were closed, letting you softly cry without a pitiful stare focusing on you.

christian knew how you never let anyone see you cry. it was a promise you had made to yourself when you were fifteen after having crying in front of the entire student body when your crush rejected you.

"you never like any of my boyfriends christian." you laugh, wiping away the tears that had spilled onto your cheeks.

yeah because they aren't me he thought.

he stands there then walks away

my God, if I could only say

i'm holding every breathe for you

christian stayed leant up against the wall with you until you were certain you were going to be able to join the party again without tearing up.

ushering him to go before you so you could fix your makeup, it didn't go unnoticed by you how your heart began to ache for his presence.

you knew that you shouldn't have felt this way about your best friend, first off it was such a cliche, second off, you knew he would've never felt the same.

valuing your friendship over your constant urge to profess your love, you swallowed your feelings and held you breathe for him.

he'd never tell you but he can play guitar

I think he can see through everything but my heart

first thought when i wake up is, "my god, he's beautiful"

so i put on my make up and pray for a miracle

"pulisic, play me a song." you jokingly ordered christian, pointing towards the guitar that was placed in the corner of his room.

you found yourself tucked in christian's bed at the early morning hours. not being able to sleep you had asked him you could come over, secretly knowing that his voice alone could send you into a peaceful slumber.

"y/n, it's three o'clock in the morning, i'm not playing you a song." he argued, tugging on the covers as you held a habit of hogging them when you slept.

"please, pretty please. if you don't i'm going to tell the world you can play the guitar and all your fans are going to go crazy constantly asking for you to play them a song an-"

"okay!" christian cut in, with his face being planted in the pillow, it had muffled his annoyed groan. the things he does for you he thought as he got up to go pick up the musical instrument.

making yourself comfortable, you looked at him with the widest grin. choosing to ignore him calling you annoying under his breath, you listened carefully as he began to strum the cords on the guitar.

god, he was beautiful.

after he was done playing you the melody, christian made his way back into the bed and began to get settled once more. following his lead, you fluffed your pillow multiple times while trying to get comfotable.

you decided to just sleep in christian's room since the spare bedroom was too far of a journey for your liking, you knew he wouldn't care due to you always sharing a bed when you went out of town with friends, both mending into your respective sides.

"goodnight y/n."

"goodnight christian."

neither of you knew that the other was wishing for the same thing.

a miracle

yes, I could tell you his favorite colors green

he loves to argue oh and it kills me

his sisters beautiful he has his father's eyes

and if you asked me if I love him

If you ask me if I love him, I'd lie

a/n: if you saw me post this two days ago, no you didn't. i like this version so much better, anon i hope you like it aswell.
