Some writers for some reason:
This a character x fem!reader fanfic
You looked at yourself in the mirror while you put your blonde, long, straight hair up in a messy bun
You put some bracelets in your tiny itty bitty small microscopic wrists and admire how your dress compliments your fair, super pale and super soft with no imperfections porcelain skin
"Syphilia Smith come down this instant!" Your mother calls you
"I'm coming!" You yell with your soft, harmonic, melodic voice

carmen berzatto x fem!reader
lyric prompt ; 'we lost track of time again' - maroon - taylor swift
𝐍𝐀𝐕𝐈𝐆𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍 ⚜︎ 𝐏𝐑𝐎𝐌𝐏𝐓 𝐏𝐋𝐀𝐘𝐋𝐈𝐒𝐓
Tumblr media
dating carmen could be difficult sometimes with how hard and long he worked at the restaurant, but that was definitely made up for by the times when he was here.
the times when he could knock off of work early for a movie night with you.
or the mornings he had worked into his schedule once a week to sleep in with you.
you had made a deal a few weeks ago that you just wanted one morning a week when you were both free so carmy was able to catch up on sleep and general health.
when he was working it was very obvious how drained and exhausted he could get, so this one morning was for both of your benefit.
you got to see more of your boyfriend and he got to recharge for one morning a week.
waking up before carmen on these mornings was not a difficult task.
while the first time you tried to slip out he always pulled you back against his chest, the second time you were much slicker about it.
you'd slip out of bed, shower and get dressed and then make coffee and start breakfast.
you always wanted to make these mornings as easy as possible for carmen so he could actually enjoy them rather than worrying about something you could easily do for him.
and today was no different. you slid out of carmen's arms and did a quick and quiet morning routine before sitting yourself at the kitchen counter with a coffee and some paperwork you had to get done today.
you were sat there in the morning glow of the kitchen for about an hour before you heard a rustling in the bedroom that brought your attention.
your eyes were pulled from your papers at the creaks you recognised as the noises your bed made and a smile spread across you lips as you spotted your very disheveled boyfriend emerging from the rumpled sheets.
you shuffled your papers together and slid them back inside your bag before moving across to the coffee pot to make a fresh one for both yourself and carmen.
as you were pouring two fresh mugs you felt a set of strong arms winding around your torso.
a warmth spread up your back and a weight settled on your shoulder causing a smile to bloom on your lips.
" morning, bear " you muttered quietly, halting what you were doing momentarily to lean back against his broad chest.
" morning, beautiful " he replied, his face briefly buried in the crook of your neck, pressing a short kiss to the skin before pulling back so you could continue what you were doing.
you picked up both mugs, offered one out to him and then lead him towards the couch so you could both enjoy your morning.
a morning that consisted of drinking coffee, having a bagel and promptly falling asleep tangled on the couch, your head pressed against his chest, relishing in the steady thumping of his heart.
it was only a vibration of carmen's phone underneath your stomach that woke the both of you.
you only shifted slightly when he reached to grab it for between you and then rested back as he answered.
" syd?...what..." he pulled the phone back from his face to check something on his screen " oh shit, my bad, we lost track of time again...we'll be there in 20 " he explained before hanging up the phone.
he set the phone down on the couch before his hand lifted to brush some hair from your face.
" we gotta go, baby. shouldda been down at the restaurant 10 minutes ago " he said, moving to ease you up slightly
" shit. " you replied with a laugh, sitting yourself up against the couch to gain your balance before standing. " we really need to start setting an alarm "

sarah cameron x fem!reader
lyric prompt ; 'stolen kisses, pretty lies' - blank space - taylor swift
𝐍𝐀𝐕𝐈𝐆𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍 ⚜︎ 𝐏𝐑𝐎𝐌𝐏𝐓 𝐏𝐋𝐀𝐘𝐋𝐈𝐒𝐓
Tumblr media
it had become normal to wake up in the arms of your girlfriend.
more often than not, the two of you would stay over at each others houses. in the last 2 months it would be easier to find the two of them sleeping in the same bed rather than finding them alone.
you had been friends with sarah for years so neither of your parents thought about it as anything other than two really good friends.
and thankfully, your parents didn't often barge into your bedroom to find the two of you tangled up in each others limbs, often in minimal clothing.
but just because it was normal to wake up with sarah, didnt make the fuzzy feeling in your chest any less present when you woke up with her body pressed against yours.
like this morning.
you woke up first, but were truly scared to move in fear of waking up the girl with her head laid against your chest.
you simply pressed a kiss to the top of her head and went to close your eyes again in hopes of sleeping for a little bit longer, but when your phone buzzed on the nightstand you knew the question would itch at your brain until you looked at it.
you eased yourself up slightly to grab your phone, flipping it in your hand to see the screen.
the pogues group chat.
jb ; heading out on the hms pogue. who's comin'
jj ; in. when ?
jb ; 9
kie ; i'm in. be there @ 9
pope ; if you can drive by, i'm in.
jb ; u got it.
kie ; sarah ? y/n ? u comin'
you knew you didnt really need to consult sarah before answering for the both of you. you both loved days out on the boat.
y/n ; i'm with sarah and we're both in! be there @ 9
as you set your phone down to try and enjoy the last few minutes before you had to wake sarah up, you felt her fidget against you, her head burrowing into the place between your shoulder and your neck.
a smile spread across your lips at the feeling of her soft skin against one of your more sensitive spots.
when you felt her lips puckering against your neck you knew she was awake.
" mornin' sunshine " you whispered, which earned you a soft sigh in response.
" you've got about 10 minutes before i pull you out of this bed."
at that she lifted her head from your shoulder and rested her head against your chest again, causing you to lift your free hand and brush her hair from her slightly confused face.
" meeting everyone at the dock at nine "
another sigh slipped from her lips before she answered. " m'kay, well can i use those ten minutes to shower ?"
two quiet laughs filled the space between you.
" as long as you plan to share with me "
a grin lit up her face as she pulled away from you and pulled you off of the mattress and across to the bathroom.
45 minutes later and the two of you were walking up to the dock where you found kiara, jj and john b waiting for the two of you.
you had dropped her hand around the corner, but picked it up again to help her onto the boat before you climbed on yourself.
once the two of you were sat down , the boat started and you all chartered to pick up pope.
and when he was finally on board, it was just the six of you and the open ocean.
30 minutes later and the boat stopped in the middle of nowhere, ready for your day out on the water to start.
the minute the boat stopped, jj pushed kie into the water and jumped in after her. john b stationed himself at the head of the boat, his legs hanging over the edge with a beer in his hand, and pope pulled out a book.
leaving you and sarah to entertain yourselves.
you were barely able to contain your laughter when you felt a head rest on your lap and you brought your attention down to the blonde head of hair scattered there.
your hand lifted to brush some hair from her face. it may have definitely lingered around her freckly cheeks.
" you got sunscreen on your pretty face ? " you questioned, unable to stop your fingertips from rubbing over her cheek.
" not yet, you wanna give it a go ?" she teased, her smile growing wider as you reached slightly to your left to grab the sunscreen from your bag.
you were never going to turn down this type of opportunity.
once you had an adequate amount of sunscreen on your hand, probably a little more than necessary, you began spreading it around on her cheeks and her nose, noticing with delight the way her nose scrunched at the cold feeling.
when her face was fully covered and protected you didnt really think about it before leaning down and pressing a short peck onto her lips.
"can i do you now ?" she questioned causing a giggle to bubble up from your chest.
" you already did me, baby. i'm too tired to do it again " you joked causing her to lightly shove your arm in jest.
" what am i looking at ? "
both yours and sarahs heads whipped towards the sound of tiaras voice, clearly directed towards you two.
" oh, yeah..." you paused for a moment, unsure if this was the right time to do this, but with a soft squeeze of your leg from sarah you were assured that she was okay with it if you were.
" we're dating. have been for about two months. " you said as though it were the most obvious thing in the world.
the shocked faces of your friends assured you it wasn't.
you knew this would happen eventually, that you were bound to get caught, you just didnt think it would be because you were too desperate to kiss sarah out on the boat.
" we don't really hide it, we just don't flaunt it either " sarah explained as she sat up beside you.
" yeah, why do you think she's always over at my house ?"
" i think i speak for all of us when i say we thought she was sleeping at yours because her family is batshit crazy " you weren't surprised to hear that coming from jj
" that is definitely the second reason " the blonde explained.

jake peralta x fem!reader
lyric prompt ; 'closed eyes & closed blinds' - fast times - sabrina carpenter
𝐍𝐀𝐕𝐈𝐆𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍 ⚜︎ 𝐏𝐑𝐎𝐌𝐏𝐓 𝐏𝐋𝐀𝐘𝐋𝐈𝐒𝐓
Tumblr media
time off was a rarity, and you didnt take it lightly.
both yourself and jake had been racking up some vacation days and had booked a week off 4 months in advance.
and you had been looking forward to the week off since you started talking about it.
a week away from everything, just you and jake.
the two of you had chosen to go to mexico for your vacation. somewhere warm and interesting. you could lounge around all day or go out and do something and that was just perfect for the two of you.
so far, in 2 and a half days, you had just been lounging around in your hotel, enjoying not having to get up every morning and not having any agenda for the day.
day three didnt look like it was going to be any different.
you were woken up by the sun creeping through the blinds you could've sworn you shut before you went to bed last night, but apparently not.
you turned over to avoid the seemly blinding light, and you were met with the sight of your boyfriend in his rumpled morning state.
his curls were a mess onto of his head, his face free of worry, the sunlight dusting over his features to make him look truly angelic.
a smile settled on your lips.
you decided to put aside your thoughts of going back to sleep and instead rested your head onto of your arm as you watched the movement of jake's chest rising and falling.
you couldn't pinpoint how long you had been watching him, but the sun had shifted to brighten his closed eyes by the time he woke up.
he turned towards your body to hide from the light, and instead was met with the stretch of mattress between you.
the cold cotton caused his eyes to squint open in search of the woman he was certain he had fallen asleep beside.
he seemed to relax when he caught sight of you just another two inches over.
" were you watching me sleep ?"
you let a soft laugh huff past your lips.
" no ." you insisted, though you were sure it wasn't convincing.
jake said nothing in retaliation and instead just stretched his arm out to pull you across the gap in the mattress and into his chest.
you didnt resist, instead wrapped your arms around his torso as his lips pressed into your forehead, both of your eyes shielded from the lines of light bleeding through the blinds.

lyric prompt ; 'i pay attention to things that most people ignore' - all american bitch - olivia rodrigo
𝐍𝐀𝐕𝐈𝐆𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍 ⚜︎ 𝐏𝐑𝐎𝐌𝐏𝐓 𝐏𝐋𝐀𝐘𝐋𝐈𝐒𝐓
Tumblr media
your time at the 188 may not have been very long compared to some of the other firefighters tenure, but it had so far been the best six months of your life.
your hours were adaptable, even if you had regularly worked twelve hour shifts every day.
your coworkers were friendly, so much so that any free time you had, you often spent with them.
whether it was going to the gym with eddie, having dinner with hen or grabbing coffee with buck before or after a shift.
and you loved doing all of that with them.
which was why you always hated cancelling plans on them.
but sometimes it was unavoidable.
which was why you had to message buck that you were running late so you couldn't grab coffee this morning.
your phone hadn't charged so you had no alarm to wake you early enough to grab coffee.
but that also meant that you were uncaffeinated as you hurried into the station for the beginning of your shift.
once you arrived and you saw that there was no urgency for you to rush around, you slowed down, put your things in your locker before climbing the stairs to the kitchen to make yourself a coffee.
you greeted those who were sitting on the couch as you made your way over, going straight for the coffee pot.
as you reached for it you noticed a takeout cup beside it with your name scribbled on the top.
your brows furrowed softly as you picked up the cup, expecting it to be trash that you had forgotten to throw away, but when you found it to be full your brows furrowed softly.
thankfully, the questions you hadn't been able to ask yet were answered when you heard a voice behind you.
"i grabbed you a coffee on my way in."
you turned to find buck stood with an identical cup in his hand, presumably filled with his regular order.
" figured you wouldn't have time this morning and i thought i'd spare us all your decaffeinated wrath "
his words caused a laugh to bubble past your lips.
" thank you, i'm sure the entire team is grateful for your generosity" you joked as you took a sip of the coffee, unable to stop the smile spreading over your face when you realised he had gotten your order right.
" and i am very grateful to not have to drink crap. how do you know my order ?" you hadn't been to coffee with buck often enough for him to know your order so well.
" i pay attention to things that most people ignore. " he explained which just made your smile widen .
" well it is very appreciated, thank you. and i promise i'll be ready to meet tomorrow morning "
there was a brief silence as you picked up your coffee and took another sip, but buck quickly broke it.
" how about we meet tonight instead? "
his question caught you off guard and caused a slight tightening in your chest.
" for, like a date ?" you questioned, wanting to clarify the nature of this meet up.
" yeah, for a date "

finnick odair x fem!reader
lyric prompt ; 'we are alone, just you and me, up in your room and our slates are clean' - state of grace - taylor swift
𝐍𝐀𝐕𝐈𝐆𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍 ⚜︎ 𝐏𝐑𝐎𝐌𝐏𝐓 𝐏𝐋𝐀𝐘𝐋𝐈𝐒𝐓
Tumblr media
this last week, your stomach had been in knots.
with the quarter quell being announced, finnick being ripped from your grasp again, and watching it unravel on your screens was heartbreaking.
until it all went black.
you didnt think that could be good.
since the moment your screen turned off you had been on edge. awaiting any sort of new, whether it's good or bad.
you hadn't been able to focus, or eat and you had barely slept since the radio silence started.
your misery was interrupted by a knock on your front door in the middle of the night. this was one of the times you were thankful for the insomnia.
you trudged across the wooden floor, pulling the sleeves of your jumper over your hands as you opened the door.
what you initially thought was a hallucination appeared infront of you.
those familiar cheekbones, his hair flattened, his broad shoulders rising and dropping with every breath.
you said nothing, not wanting to give in to your mind collapsing, but when he didn't disappear after you clenched your eyes shut and opened them again, hope began to bloom in your heart.
" d'you want to let me in or let me catch somethin' out here ?"
his voice was gruff and yet light in the small laugh that hung off the edge of his words.
when you remained stood shock still in your doorway he advanced slightly, his muddy making an imprint on your welcome mat.
you said nothing.
you didnt know what to say.
if your mind was making this up you didnt want to lean into it and embrace the crazy.
but you suddenly felt a cold, damp hand lifting your messy hair away from your face.
solid. cold. here.
your facade crumbled as you dropped froward into finnick's broad chest, his solid arms instantly wrapping around you as your clasped around him.
he was home.
he was okay.
after a very long explanation about what had happened in the capitol and in the arena left the two of you exhausted in each others embrace on your bed.
since he had stepped foot in the house you hadn't let him go.
not even when he said he needed to shower to get the chill out of his bones.
but thankfully, he didn't seem to want to let go of you either.
your fingertips traced shapes along his arms as his did the same up and down your waist.
" what does it mean that you're here? " you questioned softly
" it means i've come back for the most important thing to me "
" that's not what i mean, finn. what's going to happen, where are we, what's going on now ?" you rambled off questions that had been swirling around in your head.
" we are alone, just you and me, up in your room and our slates are clean "
his words settled in your chest, spreading comfort around your body as you let them settle in.

lookin' for something dumb to do
Tumblr media
married at first strike - the wedding
jamie tartt x fem!reader | minimal use of y/n | 2.8k
𝐍𝐀𝐕𝐈𝐆𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍
Tumblr media
A vision of white stared back at you in your reflection. 
For a long time you dreamed about this, but this was never the way you planned for it to go down. 
Initially you thought as a child that you would find someone you really loved, spend weeks planning your wedding with them and get married in a beautiful ceremony. 
You never imagined being surrounded by cameras for the entirety of your wedding day. Or that at the end of the isle would be a complete stranger. 
“You look beautiful, babe” you heard from behind you, turning your attention to the origin of the voice. 
Your friend, and bridesmaid, florence. 
Alice and your other bridesmaids were dressed up in a beautiful deep red that matched the colour on your nails and the colours dotted throughout your bouquet. 
“Thanks, flo.” you answered as you shook out your hands in hopes of getting rid of the wave of nerves wracking your body. 
She seemed to notice the nerves in your system as she approached you and took your hands in hers. “ it’s going to be okay, y/n. This guy has been chosen for you, and you’re awesome. Worst case scenario, you lose two weeks, one of which you’ll spend on a honeymoon. Best case scenario, you fall madly in love with this guy. “ 
Her words were more comforting than you anticipated, and your hands stilled in her own. 
Her take on it calmed your shaking. 
Before you had a chance to think anymore on it, a production assistant told you that it was time. 
Now or never. 
The walk to the car was short, and the drive seemed even shorter. You were less than ten minutes away from committing to someone you had never met. 
And that ten minutes went by very fast. 
Before you knew it your car pulled up the the venue and you were being led through to the beginning of what you hoped could be the rest of your life. 
Voices could be heard on the other side of the door, some light laughter from your friends and family calming your nerves.
It seemed the closest people in your life were getting along with whoever was stood at the altar waiting for you. 
You waited for a cue, which was given in the form of a hand on your back and the sound of the people on the other side of the door shuffling around. 
When the doors opened, everything faded. The nerves, the shaking hands. It all dissipated.
You had to put all of your trust in the matchmakers. 
And as you made your way down the aisle, you realised your trust was in the right place. 
The man who stood at the other end of the room had your smile widening past the limits of your face.
He was dressed impeccably, a simple black suit with a red tie that matched the entire wedding. 
As you neared the altar you were able to make out his face and he was absolutely gorgeous, his bone structure something that would make Michelangelo weep. 
Once you were stood in front of him you tried to manage your smile but it was very hard. 
But a smile mirroring your own appeared on your grooms face. 
“ hi “ you beamed
“ alright. ‘M jamie “ he replied, a thick Mancunian accent hanging off of his words. 
“ y/n “ 
“ you look beautiful y/n “ 
His words caused your cheeks to blush and you hid your face from his view momentarily before looking back up at him with a bashful grin. 
“ Thank you, jamie. You look very handsome “ 
Soft laughs bubbled from both of you as you heard some muttering from both sides of the guests. 
Everyone was cut off by the officiant you hadn’t clocked until now 
“ I am very happy to formally welcome you all here today as y/n and Jamie make the ultimate commitment to one another “ 
Her words had your hands shaking slightly as your gaze darted back to Jamie. 
You caught him looking back at you and a set of smiles broke out on your faces. 
“ Y/n, i now invite you to share your vows with Jamie “ 
A set of index cards was handed to you, the vows you had poured over lining the paper. 
After a deep breath you spoke up. 
“ Jamie, i’m sure this is not how either of us imagined finding someone to spend our lives with, but now that i’m here, i’m excited to go on this journey with you..No secrets here, I'll be awkward at first but once you get to know me I will do my best to give you lots of love and make every day more enjoyable than the last. a little about me, i’m a typical brit in that i am confident tea is better than coffee and i enjoy rain over sunshine. But you have better luck finding me in a bookshop than a pub. And i hope your strong because i’ll need help carrying the books home“ 
Quiet laughs came from your friends and when your eyes lifted from the paper you found Jamie chuckling too. 
“ The time I don't spend reading, i’m taking care of blythe. Even if she tries her best to read with me, I don't think dogs have that capability. “ another chuckle from jamie had your smile widening “ but don’t worry, i’m sure she’ll love you as long as you don’t hurt her mum or take her spot on the sofa “ 
“ wouldn’t dare “ he replies, a smirk beaming across his face
You handed your index cards back to the officiant and let out a shuddering breath as she handed an identical set of cards to jamie. 
“ Jamie, i now invite you to share your vows with y/n “ 
“ Y/n, First I want to thank you for taking a huge risk as we stand here together as complete strangers, placing our faith into the experts .i’m not perfect, but parts of me are pretty fucking awesome “ a laugh bubbled past your lips along with everyone else witnessing the two of you “ I want to assure you that I'm here for genuine reasons. The experiment and you are now my priority. I hope that no matter what the outcome, if we put our best foot forward and take care of one another then we can never lose."
How words brought a burning feeling to the spot behind your eyes. You didn’t think someone you just met could make you feel so assured in what you were doing. 
“ please place these rings on each others fingers as a sign of your commitment to each other and the experiment “ 
A hand was put out between the two of you holding two rings, both yours and Jamie's hands brushed as you collected the rings. 
Jamie took your hand in his first, sliding your ring onto your ring finger before you did the same to him. 
You couldn’t resist flashing your new ring to your side of the room with an excited smile.
When you were brought back to look at jamie he was spinning his ring around his finger, assuming he was getting used to wearing it. 
“ you may now seal this union with your first kiss “
Somehow you had forgotten about this part in your pre-wedding jitters, but almost instantly, you felt one of Jamie's hands rest on your waist while the other lifted to lightly rest on your cheek. 
His lips pressed onto yours in a soft and tender kiss that you truly weren’t expecting. 
With your wedding party being small, this all felt a million times more intimate. 
When you pulled back you could not wipe the smile off of your face as you took Jamie's hand in yours and walked back down the aisle with a grin prominent on your lips. 
You didn’t have much time to try and talk to Jamie before you were both pulled away for photos. 
Somehow poses that would be awkward with anyone seemed just flat out ridiculous as you two stood in front of the camera in undeniably romantic and cheesy poses
You knew for a fact that most of these photos would be the both of you laughing or recovering from a laughing fit. 
“ who’d’ve thought that romantic poses would be awkward for two people who’ve never met before “ 
Jamie’s words had another laugh bubbling past your lips. 
“ yeah, it’s like no one thought how uncomfortable it would be for two strangers to be pressed up against each other like this. “ 
Your arms were currently looped over Jamie's shoulders with his firmly around your waist while a photographer called instructions out at the two of you. 
There was not a hint of a gap between you as said photographer had continued to push the two of you closer and closer together. 
Thankfully, it didn’t last too long and the two of you were ushered towards your wedding reception. 
When the two of you walked in you were met with your families. 
What shocked you to see was everyone in the room integrating as if they weren’t two separate entities half an hour ago. 
Your friend Flo was talking to a short bubbly woman in pink and a gruff looking gentleman. 
Your parents talking with two people you could only assume to be Jamie's parents. 
Suddenly, this all became very real. You and Jamie weren’t the only people this union impacted. 
It impacted everyone in this room and that definitely scared you.
Once everyone realised the bride and groom had entered, the mood shifted and suddenly everyone’s eyes were on the pair of you. 
While 10 sets of eyes might not seem like a lot, when half of them were complete strangers who loved the man you were standing next to. 
His hand tugged at yours slightly which snapped you out of your fear riddled freeze. 
You followed Jamie to the table set up at the head of the room. Because of how little your wedding party was, there was only one table, made of four, that was ultimately a big square with a hole in the centre. 
Music played softly throughout the room, a song you weren't able to name but it was definitely a welcome addition to your wedding playlist. 
Everyone fell into a casual conversation, allowing yourself and jamie to actually get to know each other a bit. 
“ so, what do you do ?” you questioned, turning your body to face his slightly in anticipation of this conversation lasting a while. 
Something buffered in jamie’s head. 
You didn’t know who he was. He didn’t realise that could happen. He assumed that most people in england watched football and not to blow his own whistle, but he knew he was quite a big deal in the sport. 
“ i’m a personal trainer “ the lie seemed to slip off of his tongue quite naturally, and when your brows lifted in curiosity, he knew he had gotten away with it. But he decided to get the focus off himself. “ what about you ?” 
“ i’m a baker. I work in a cafe in london, but i’m in the process of buying my own place to open a bakery “ 
His brows lifted similarly to yours at the revelation of your job. “ seriously? That’s sick. ‘Ve you found a place yet ?” 
You shook your head in answer. 
“ no, i haven’t been able to find anywhere good. “ you had visited a bunch of different spaces, but none of them were both within your budget and looked nice. 
You were now thankful that you hadn’t found anywhere as you were truly invested in this experiment and finding love in the man sat next to you. 
Had you found somewhere, you wouldn’t have been able to enjoy this with that hanging over you, not to mention it would tie you to London, and based on jamie’s accent he didn’t live in london. 
“ where do you live ? “ you questioned, needing clarification on how far from you Jamie lived. 
“ richmond, but i was born in manchester “ 
In the grand scheme of things that truly wasn’t that far. 
90 minutes.
If it came down to it, you were not opposed to shifting your life 90 minutes. 
But that was a decision for future you. 
Current you was relishing in the feeling of warmth washing over you every time you caught a glimpse of jamie’s smile. 
The rest of your wedding day went by in a flurry of smiles, laughs and quick kisses between yourself and your new husband. 
As the day drew to a close and everyone grew tired, you found yourself sat outside of the venue with a drink in hand and a tuxedo jacket over your shoulders in an attempt to combat the cold english weather. 
You had wanted to have a private chat with jamie all day just to have a bit more of an intimate chat. You didn’t quite fancy discussing potentially heated and emotional stuff in front of everyone .
“ so i wanted to talk to you about a couple of things before we dive into this..” you began, turning your body a bit more towards where jamie sat beside you on the bench. 
He looked significantly more dishevelled than he had done at the beginning of the day. His tie loose around his neck, his top two buttons undone and his jacket over your shoulders. His hair a lot softer than it had been when you first saw him, the almond-y colours now fluffy and soft around his face. 
“ i’ve been single for 5 years, and that is mainly because i- the last guy i was with was horrible. I was with him for 3 years and by the end of it i was just a shell of myself. I was basically being gaslit for three years.” 
There was a brief silence between the two of you where you were sure you felt the mood shift completely. 
“ i am not going to put up with shit anymore. So i need to know that you’re here for the right reasons, because i do not want to waste anymore time with guys who aren’t serious about a relationship “
Jamie seemed to turn to stone across from you, as though you had spouted medusa’s snakes from your head. 
You were unsure if it was the confronting nature of your words or just a general buffering as he tried to think of what to say. 
But the silence between you was cut short when you felt jamie’s hand resting on the fabric of your dress over your knee. 
“ i’m here for you, to make this work. I’m not here to waste either of our time “ 
His words made your heart swell and you felt drawn to him, your face inching closer to his until your lips met delicately. 
Your hand appeared from underneath the fabric of jamie’s jacket to rest at the junction between his jaw and his neck. 
His hand moved up from your knee, through the slit of your dress to rest on your thigh. 
That was what caused you to pull away and drop your hand to rest on top of his. 
You stopped it crawling up any further as you shook your head. 
“ not happening “ you said simply, a slightly teasing smile on your lips. 
His brows furrowed softly as though your words baffled him. 
“ you’re fit, no doubt about that. But i met you six hours ago and we may be married but i’m not that kind of girl “ 
“ ‘course. Wasn’t planning to jump you right here. Got meself all caught up “ 
A soft laugh bubbled between the two of you in the quiet evening followed by a small shiver up your spine. 
“ let’s get ya back inside before ya freeze “ jamie suggested, standing from the bench the two of you had been perched on for the last couple of minutes. 
He offered his hand out to you to help you up and placed his hand on the small of your back on the walk inside. 
When you walked in, you found something that made your fingertips tingle. 
You found everyone you had invited to the wedding just dancing slowly in the empty space of the room. 
Your mum dancing with her boyfriend, jamie friends, who had been introduced to you as roy and keeley, swaying to the soft music flooding through the speakers around the room. 
But there was one couple that had caught your eye and caused this tingling feeling in your fingers. 
Florence and jamie’s friend Sam. 
It reminded you that this wasn't something that only impacted you and jamie. 
This would impact everyone around you. 
Whether it ended well or not, it would rock your support system. 
So if you decided that this was going to work on the outside, you were going to do everything in your power to make this the one that lasted.

luke castellan x fem!reader
prompt : " sharing a blanket, cuddling up together " + " showering together "
𝐍𝐀𝐕𝐈𝐆𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍
Tumblr media
your head rested comfortably on luke's shoulder as your eyes remained focused on the sunset.
this was why you loved camp.
the quiet evenings to yourself after the younger campers went to sleep.
nights of hushed laughs coming from the cabins that you and luke filled with campfire chats and sunset walks.
sunset walks that ended in the two of you sat on the end of the pier overlooking the water as you were currently doing.
as gorgeous as the sunset was, you could feel your eyelashes dusting against your cheeks for longer intervals every time.
the coziness of the blanket over your shoulders, the feeling of lukes arm looped around your back and his hand on the junction between your thigh and your waist.
it was all too relaxing for you to keep yourself awake much longer.
luke must've noticed your body leaning on him a bit more for support because his arm tightened around your body before he spoke up.
" y'ready for bed, baby ?" he questioned quietly.
you forced your eyes open to look up into his gorgeous eyes and a tired and dazed smile settled on your lips as you nodded.
" let's get you to bed then " his shifting movement underneath you caused you to wake up a little bit more so you didnt hit your head on the wooden panels of the pier.
you watched as luke stood and offered his hand out to pull you up, which you gladly took.
the two of you meandered back towards your cabin, the blanket still draped over your shoulders as luke lead you in the right direction.
when you got back to your cabin, you practically collapsed against the bed, wanting nothing more than to just sleep.
but when you felt luke's hands turning you over you knew you weren't going to be granted that.
his hands pulled you into a sitting position, to which you groaned and tried to fall back against the blanket.
" let me sleep" you whined, causing a soft laugh to spill from luke's lips.
" you'll hate me in the morning if i let you sleep after you swam in the lake. " he countered.
" i'll love you right now if you let me sleep. "
" how much will you love me if i shower with you ? "
that suggestion had you perking up slightly.
" a lot " was your simple reply as you let luke pull you to your feet.
no words were exchanged as luke led you towards the bathroom and flicked on the shower, immediately starting to pull your shirt over your head and start a pile of clothes in the corner of the room.
as the pile grew bigger and the room grew steamer, you found your previously tired state returning quite quickly.
but once you were pulled under the water a soft smile settled onto your lips at the feeling of it against your hair, mixed with the sight of lukes typically full mess of hair flattening against his head under the stream.
you lifted your hand to push the damp, straightened curls away from his face which caused a laugh to bubble up from luke's chest.
his arms wrapped around your waist, his lips pressing onto your forehead before he reached for your shampoo and began decanting some onto both of your hands.
the only thing better than seeing luke's hair flat from the water, was seeing it full of suds in a stiff shape.
once the both of you felt thoroughly clean, and the water began going cold, towels were wrapped around the two of you and comfortable clothes put on once you were dry.
you were relieved when you were finally able to flop down on your bed again, and the next touch from your boyfriend was him simply manoeuvring you to release the blanket from under you.
said blanket was draped over your body and at the same time you felt a warmth pressed up against your side.
you turned over to press your head into the warmth as his arms wrapped around your body.
his voice rumbled through his chest and vibrated against you.
" how much do you love me now ?"
" so much "
