Girl Of My Dreams — Mat Barzal

Summary: In which Mat Barzal inadvertently falls for the oldest Hughes sibling and her brothers aren’t happy.

Content Warning; Taylor swift 1989 isn’t by Tay(its by reader) Mentions of University of Alabama (reader went there) Trevor Zegras being hopelessly in love with reader. Readers social media face claim is Addison Rae bc idc she’d clear as a WAG for a athlete.

Pairing: Mat Barzal x Hughes! Reader.

Mat would be lying if he said he didn’t sneak glances at the announcers box after meeting you. You had been carrying a plate of food and two margaritas to your booth where your friends sat. Tito had made a joke about you seeming familiar then the pair heard your voice and knew, “Alright now, eat up because y’all are bumming me out.” Mat’s jaw slacked, “He’d known that the Islanders had gotten a new game announcer who was a girl but he wouldn’t have known it was you. You were effortlessly stunning, you had captivated the attention of every straight man in the bar. Mat had approached you as you sat at the bar, “I’m Mat, can I buy you a drink?”

You grinned and spoke, southern accent slipping out, “I’m Y/N, I mean Barzy after the way you played last game? You better buy me a drink. ‘Yknow how many hate comments my broadcast got?” Mat grinned as the bartender approached you, “Another Corona Light and whatever she’s having on me.” You grinned sheepishly, “I’m fucking with you. I’ve heard worse.” Mat grinned, “So now would probably be a shitty time to ask you out?” You smiled at him, “Maybe not.” Mat smiled, “If I may, your not from New York are you? Where are you from?” You grinned, “I grew up in Toronto with my 3 younger brothers and moved to Alabama for college and been in New York for a few months now.” Mat grinned, “Well welcome to New York beautiful.” That was a year and a half ago. You still hadn’t told your brothers who your boyfriend was, just that his name was Mathew. Until your album release came creeping in and you wanted to go public with Mat.

ah yes, good ol mathew ‘you like my pants? thanks! my girlfriend picked them out for me’ barzal. he’s just so proud of you and having you and showing you off every chance he gets. promotion at work? good grade on an assignment? learned a new hobby? took a nice picture? doesn’t matter how small you think it is, he’s showing you off to anyone and everyone that he possibly can. no doubt in my mind that he starts introducing you first and then only introduces himself as your boyfriend.

mathew "you like my pant? thanks! my girlfriend picked them out for me!" barzal WE LOVE TO SEE IT.

He's just so proud of everything you do

He's always the first person you call when something happens at work or school so he's on top of everything

You tell him about a good grade on an exam you were worried about and next thing you know he's surprising you when you get home and lifting you into a hug

"I knew you could do it!!!! You're so fucking amazing and smart and beautiful!!!!"

He watches in amazement as you do your little hobbies "omg how are you so good at taking pictures???!?!? That's so cool!!!!"

Like you could literally draw something and it doesn't even need to be good and in his mind that's cooler than him playing hockey as good as he does

He brags for you

"Heyyyy did y/n tell you about her promotion??"

"Mat stop iiiiit" cus the conversation literally isn't even about you

"I'm so proud of her."

Always showing you off and rambling about things you accomplished to his teammates in the locker room and theyre like "okay mat yes its a nice photo please shut up"

Omg the idea of him introducing you first and then only introducing himself as your bf is so sweet

He probably does it subconsciously

Like lets say you're out together and a cute elderly couple asks you to take a picture of them

When you do Mat's like "wowww thats so good! Isn't that so good?!!" And the poor couple has to listem to him rant

suddenly you're having a nice conversation and introducing yourselves "this is y/n she's great at taking picturez, isn't she?"

"And uhh who are you?"

"Oh yeah I'm her boyfriend." And his hand squeezes yours because he's so happy to say that

And you have to be like "that's Mat"

And this old couple is like "awww"

🥺

#my HEART #soft night #ramble #ask #op #hc: mat barzal

i dont know if your still doing prompts so if your not just ignore this but 32. but you jokingly propose to me at the bar but it ends up all over social media so now I have to track you down because I don’t even know your name with mat barzal?

i’m pretty sure you meant to type 31 but anyway, here you go!

You barely remembered last night, the events all blurring together. So it definitely came as a surprise when you woke up the next morning with a plastic ring on your finger and numerous notifications blowing up your phone.

Deciding to ignore your phone in favor of getting some food in you, you dragged yourself out of bed and stumbled your way through your apartment. It wasn’t a big place, but what else could you expect from a young adult living in NYC?

Once you didn’t feel like the walking dead, you finally turned your attention to your phone. Of course, one glance and it was tumbling out of your hand as you froze in shock.

Snapping out of it, you bent down and picked it up, hurriedly unlocking it and pulling up your texts.

The first one you opened was from your cousin who you haven’t talked to since the last family get together.

‘Oh my gosh!!!! Why didn’t you tell anyone you had a bf? Congrats on the engagement!’

And right above that was a picture of you at the bar last night, an attractive guy on his knee in front of you.

What the hell?

Not only did you not know who the hell that was, but you couldn’t even remember that happening. Deciding to ignore the rest of the texts, you switched to your Instagram to find yourself tagged in, once again, pictures you didn’t remember.

It’s turning into quite the theme, apparently.

Spending the next half hour scrolling through everything, you were able to vaguely piece together what had happened. Going to the bar with a group of friends and getting wasted was the last thing you could clearly envision, but after that it seemed like you hit it off with attractive stranger guy, leading him to propose–hence the ring on your finger–sometime later in the night.

But what you didn’t get was why. Your most likely theory was free drinks, but after searching through picture upon picture you finally managed to figure out who your mystery fiancé was.

One Mathew Barzal, a hockey player on the New York Islanders.

Now faced with a name, you were left with how to get the message out to all of your family now under the impression you were engaged that you most assuredly weren’t.

But first, with shaking fingers, you dmed your “fiancé”.

A picture of your ring and a message that read ‘so apparently we’re engaged?’ later, you found yourself wondering when your life got so crazy.

Finishing things up for sleepover saturday (even though it was three days ago)!
