Wood - Joe Burrow
A/N: This is just a fun little Joe fic to keep me entertained while I work on my other projects! Hope you all enjoy, it's a fun one 😋
WC: 2.3k
Warnings: VERY suggestive, basically the closest you can get to smut without being smut, I will tag this as smut just as it's so suggestive lol, Joe being a tease, reader being clingy, reader also being a tease, they're just two horn dogs in love 🥰
It’s quiet in the Burrow house.
Not silent.
Just quiet in the way quiet falls the day after a game win.
You’ve been sat in the study working on your masters project. It’s going well, you’re making good progress, but it’s been far too long since you had a Joe hug, you’ve decided, so you shut your laptop and pad downstairs to the kitchen.
The sight that greets you makes you pause at the threshold of the room.
Lights are low, warm and soft. The scent of garlic and lemon wafts into your nose and your stomach rumbles.
Joe’s stood at the oven stirring pasta for dinner. The speaker is playing some soft indie music you vaguely recognise from the radio. His hoodie sleeves are rolled up to his elbows and he’s clearly focused, in the zone, the way he is before he goes onto the field.
Hey can you do one where the reader and Tim is in the middle of having s*x and Tim gets a phone call from his job in metro and he answers the phone while he is still inside of her
Duty Calls
Tim Bradford x reader
Warnings/Tags: 18+, mdni!, smut, unprotected p in v (wrap it before you tap it!)

Authors Note: Hello love, thanks for the request! Hope you'll like it!
Enjoy!
You flinched, as his phone went off again.
"Maybe you should answer it." you suggested breathlessly, on the verge of a moan. He grumbled something against your neck, nibbling at the sensitive skin.
When his phone went silent again, his grip on your hips tightened, his movements becoming faster. You moaned his name, your own grip on him tightening as well.
"Tim." you moaned his name, hips coming up to meet his. "Please, don't sto-" you were cut off when his phone went off again, and he groaned.
His head left the crook of you neck, as he fished for the intruder, his pace never once faltering. He glanced at you, before he pressed the answer button, holding the phone against his ear.
Your eyes went wide and you pushed against him, trying to make him stop. Biting on your lip to hold back a moan, his pace stayed the same, though.
"Yeah?" he spoke into the device, surprisingly calm despite the pleasure coursing through his body with every thrust of his hips. "Sure, when?"
Your eyes rolled to the back of your head, as he shifted his hips slightly, now hitting that sweet spot of yours that had you see stars with each thrust.
His brows and lips twitched, as he held back a moan of his own, as you clenched around him. "Okay, what will we find there?" he spoke, his other hand tightening its grip around your waist for leverage.
Your hand slipped between your lips, biting down to keep quiet, as a moan rumbled through you.
His lips twitched again, eyes fluttering, as he somehow managed to increase his pace. "Yeah, sure. Send me the location. What about the others?" he spoke, clearing his throat, and your breathing hitched at how close you were.
You tried to hold off on it, as he leaned more forward, elbow propped on the mattress, phone still pressed to his ear. He was so close you could hear his boss.
Head thrown back, your brows knitted in pleasure, biting down on your hand again to stay quiet.
He hummed into the phone, trying desperately to keep his breathing in check, as he felt himself near his climax as well.
"Yeah I- I'll be there." he pressed out, before hanging up, throwing the phone to the side. His now free hand gripped your thigh, moving you against him with every thrust.
"Metro." he breathed out, panting. Your hand slipped from your mouth, making way for a sinful moan, his name on your parted lips.
You nodded, back arching.
"I'm so close!" you breathed out, moaning again. He nodded in return, pace quickening even further. "Me too." he pressed out through clenched teeth, groaning in pleasure. "Me too."
He watched the way your tits bounced, as his phone went off again. Your body chose the exact same moment to let the coil in your belly snap, pleasure coursing through you with a cry of his name.
Your orgasm triggered his own, and he spilled himself into you, moaning and groaning your name, riding you through it, before he stilled.
Panting, your head fell back into the pillows, as his phone went silent again.
"I'm gonna have to go now." Tim breathed out, trying to catch his own breath. You nodded, as your own phone went off.
Groaning, your arm covered your eyes.
"Me too."

🏈 Joe Burrow x Reader | 9.3k-ish words
Request: Hi, can you write about Joe being the first man in the reader's life (first love always hurts) But he doesn't want anything serious, he's dating another influencer, and he won't commit to the reader who's deeply in love with him, so she puts up with it.(May it have a lot of angst, be a bit spicy, and finally have a happy ending? 🙏🏻)

Content Advisory: This story contains lies about birthday plans, astronomical amounts of pining, and one very expensive lesson in why you shouldn't date people who keep you a secret. Proceed with tissues and low expectations for male behavior.
Author’s Note: This one did not come easy, y’all. I’ve been chipping away at it for at least a month and honestly it feels like longer. I really wanted it to feel different from BTL and anything else I’ve written, and it was hard as hell to get there. Writing Joe in such a messy, kind of toxic way? Not really my usual vibe but this story just demanded it.
I hope it shows how much care I put into it. Huge thanks to my beta @crazytheoriststrawberry for helping.
Hope you love it. ✨
You'd coordinated events for athletes before, but The Joe Burrow Foundation's golf tournament felt different from the moment you walked into Top Golf Cincinnati. Maybe it was the way he'd insisted on reviewing every detail personally instead of sending an assistant, or how he'd actually listened when you explained why the silent auction would work better positioned near the bar. Most clients nodded along and trusted you to handle it. Joe asked questions that showed he was actually thinking about the answers.
"The sponsors want visibility," he'd said during your planning meeting three weeks ago, "but I don't want it to feel like a corporate showcase. How do we balance that?"
It wasn't something most people would think about. You'd suggested integrating sponsor recognition into the competition format itself—branded hole challenges, custom scorecards, a food truck, photo ops that felt natural rather than forced. The way his face had lit up told you everything about why this mattered to him.
This is amazing omg
Part 5 - "You Need To Be Educated"
Summary: Aurora is prepping to throw her big release party for Espresso while Joe and Ja'Marr are still keeping her company
Warnings: Cute banter ;)
a/n: I am so excited to be back. Sorry if this one is short or sounds a little choppy; I'm still getting back into writing. Thinking about writing a fun imagine in the next couple days. Enjoy!!!!!
Joe and Ja’Marr had one day left in LA and Rory had every intention of spending every second by their side. The past couple days had been hectic: Joe and Ja’Marr had three different Vogue fittings, Joe had two different interviews planned and he was a special podcast guest, Ja’Marr surprised Rory at the studio and got a private listening of her album, and today she was throwing a release party for Espresso.
Aurora was rudely awoken by the sound of her alarm at the early hour of 8am; to pull off a release party like the one she wanted tonight, she needed all day to prep. She silenced her alarm and slowly climbed out of her pink duvet. A warm shower to start her sixteen hour day was just what she needed. The last couple days with Joe and Ja’Marr had been nice for Rory; though in the back of her mind she wondered why Joe hadn’t brought up the other night to her. Maybe he thought it wasn’t a big deal that he spent the night in her room, in the same bed, sharing the same space as her. Even though it mattered to Aurora she pushed those thoughts to the back of her mind and rushed to finish her shower.
After her 25 minute shower (sometimes a girl needs to relax) Rory sat down at her vanity to get started on her skincare. She figured the boys wouldn’t be awake for a couple more hours yet so she could take her time and then they could help her get set up for her party. After putting The Japanese House on shuffle Rory heard a knock at her bedroom door.
“Come in”
Joe slowly cracked Aurora’s door open with his foot, holding a plate of fresh fruit in one hand and a cup of tea in the other.
“Hey.” Joe pushed the door shut gently with his foot while he set the morning gifts he had made for you down on your vanity. “I usually wake up around 7:30 everyday so I thought I would bring you this.”
Rory couldn’t help but admire the man that had gone out of his way to make sure her day started out right. His face is beautiful. If this moment could last forever I wouldn’t complain.
“I-Thank you Joe. Did you want some of it?” She pushed the plate closer to him after taking a strawberry; hoping he would say yes and stay.
“I’m okay. I went and got a protein smoothie for myself this morning. I’ll let you finish getting ready.” Aurora and Joe shared a smile before he turned to leave and go back downstairs.
“Wait, uh, you should stay.” When Joe turned around Rory could tell he was hesitant and he wanted to brush her off. “I don’t usually have guests and it’s nice to have guests.” The quiet hum of Over There by The Japanese House helped to break the silence.
“I get it, my home is quiet almost 362 days of the year. I sometimes wish I bought a smaller house; I don’t need or use all the space I have.” Joe took a seat on the cream colored bench at the end of her bed. Aurora took out her gua sha and started to do her routine when she looked back at Joe. She didn’t know much about him, where he grew up, what he does for fun, all she knew was that he met Ja’Marr in college and they’ve been inseparable since.
“So Joe Cool, tell me something fun about yourself. I feel like I don’t know enough about you.” Joe coughed out a laugh and looked up at Aurora through her mirror.
“During the last offseason I completed 34 lego sets.”
“You seem a little too proud of yourself for that.” The couple of adults laughed in harmony but were interrupted by another knock on Aurora's door.
While tightening the strings to her robe she yelled to the person through the door, “Who is it?”
“It’s Mark. The party planners are already here to start setting up and you have a fitting in an hour. Let's go.” Aurora let out a sigh. The control others had over her life had become a lot in the past months. After her breakup, Mark had taken over her Instagram and Tik Tok in hopes to boost her ratings with Gen Z (this didn’t always work). Rory believed deep down that he just didn’t want her to see that people hated her.
“I’m gonna let you change and finish getting ready. Marr and I will be around the house all day setting up so I’ll see you when you get back.” Joe smiled and grabbed your empty fruit plate.
“Thanks Joe for breakfast. I’m gonna miss you guys when you leave tomorrow.” After Joe shut her door Aurora was alone with just her thoughts. To let another guy in again meant accepting the fact that someone might break her heart again just like Paul did. There was a time in their relationship where she truly thought they would end up getting married; now they have each other blocked and the only communication they have is through TMZ instagram posts. While there were a lot of fears and trust issues that she needed to work through still, Rory hoped that someday she would be ready to let someone back into her heart again.
~~~
“I think I like this one the best, Cassie.” Aurora turned to look at herself in the mirror from the back. This had to have been the 8th dress she tried on already. “The vibe of this album is supposed to be blue so I feel like this fits in perfectly.
https://www.pinterest.com/pin/AY42GDfXlzsAu0FLHFDsAoN9yeMIU322xvCGtFBq9i4Vw_pJvdU33bdIxh7fGDF7F81pTjaG-38M1PImg3Ayh9o/
This is what the dress looks like
“Okay, great, I’m glad we spent…” Mark glanced down at his watch, exasperated at the amount of time it took Aurora to pick out a dress for her party that night. “…two and a half hours here. Rory, we really need to get going.” Mark threw his new Coach bag over his shoulder and ushered her back to the dressing room to get changed. “So, what was Joe doing in your room this morning?” Mark said to Aurora through the changing room curtain. He has been there through every moment of her ups and downs of the music career, personal or not.
“He just wanted to bring me breakfast. Probably just a thank you for letting him and Marr stay there for the week. Nothing serious, I don’t know. Does it matter?” Rory grabbed all of her belongings and stepped out of the dressing room.
“Doesn’t matter? Yeah, when has anything ever been casual with you?” Mark laughed and put his arm around Rory as the two started their walk back to the car.
~~~
“Ja’Marr!!! You promised you wouldn’t tell anyone that.” Aurora, Ja’Marr, and Joe sat at her kitchen island enjoying a late lunch before they all needed to get ready.
“My girl, I promise Joe does not care that you threw up in the uber after the Grammys.” Ja’Marr wrapped his arms around Rory's neck as her face grew a deep red. "That's a facetime I’ll never forget.” Rory turned around to smack Ja’Marr on the head. “Okay sorry, sorry, it’s now our secret.”
“I promise I don’t judge you Aurora. Those lineman can drink but they definitely don’t know when to stop. I’ve seen my fair share of throw ups.”
“Yea-...” As Aurora went to continue the playful banter her phone lit up with a call from Mark. “Sorry guys, I have to take this quick.”
The phone call with Mark was quick but she still needed to find someone to be in her next music video. The single was supposed to be released in two months so her management team wanted to start filming the video in the next few weeks. A part of her wanted to ask Joe to be in the video. He definitely would look good on camera. Her team had also reached out to Tom Blyth, an actor who just starred in The Hunger Games, he was also easy on the eyes. If the right moment comes up tonight, I’ll approach Joe about it, if not, I’ll just have Tom in it. Deep down Aurora knew she wanted Joe ten times more than Tom.
Aurora took her previous seat in between the two boys. “Sorry, Mark called me about some music stuff. I should probably start getting ready soon anyway.”
“Speaking of that, I was gonna hit the gym real quick Rory, just while you get ready.” Ja’Marr looked over at Joe. “You in for a quick lift. We start practice in a month.”
“Nah man, I’m good today. I’ll stay here with Rory.” Her eyes shot up from whatever BRAT edit she was watching. Play it cool, play it cool, play it cool.
“Yup just two bros, chilling, here, alone.” Aurora let out an awkward giggle looking between Ja’Marr and Joe. What. The. Fuck. Two bros, chilling. I should’ve just not said anything oh my gosh.
Ja’Marr looked one more time between Joe and Aurora before letting out the biggest laugh. “What the fuck. Well, I’ll leave you two bros alone.”
The silence in Aurora's home was frightening. Joe had kept himself occupied scrolling through new football plays that they would be running in the fall. Aurora on the other hand couldn’t take her mind off the handsome man next to her. Why doesn’t he ever start a conversation? And he’s never brought up the night he literally SLEPT in my bed. Aurora swore the clock on the stove moved slower than ever before.
The sound of Joe’s phone being set down on the counter brought her out of her thoughts. “So who’s on your special guest list tonight?” The party would be held on her balcony and in the backyard. She had decided to hire a DJ, a private bar, and bought a dance floor to be brought in.
“I actually didn’t look through the entire RSVP list. Possibly a bad choice by the host.”
“Maybe a poor choice. I don’t host often, of course you probably picked up on that from our conversation this morning.”
“I figured a quarterback as popular as yourself would always be partying. I saw pictures of you at the white party.” Now that Aurora thought about it, she had attended that party herself. “Did we ever run into each other there?”
“Uh-I don’t think so. I’m not big into the party scene so the white party is not always my vibe. I just stuck around my friends. I bet if Ja’Marr was there we would have crossed paths.”
“Oh, def. But tonight I know Taylor Swift is coming. And uhhhh…” Aurora scrolled through the list Mark had sent her to find the RSVP list, “...Sydney Sweney, Tom Blyth, SZA is coming. Joe. SZA is coming to my party. Do you know what that means to me?” She reached to grab his arm while laughing, “ I mean if that doesn’t tell you I’ve made it, I’m not sure what else will.”
“Her song Good Days is pretty good. And uh, yeah I’m gonna be honest, I don’t listen to her much.” Joe laughed while Aurora looked at him in horror.
“JOE!”
She couldn’t believe that Joe Burrow, someone who loved Kid Cudi, wasn’t cultured in SZA.
“Come sit with me while I get ready; we can listen to SZA. You need to be educated.” Aurora poked his chest while she stood up to head up to her room. She could feel the butterflies in her stomach; will he follow me or will he stay here?
“You don’t have to tell me twice.”

Update On Jungle Love
Hey Guys!!!!!!
Sorry it's been so long since my last update. The last months of my senior year got super hectic and I definitely didn't have time to update. I'm thinking of continuing Jungle Love or possibly starting individual imagines for Joe. Let me know what you guys think; I'm so happy to be back!!!!!!
hey I was wondering if you can do a Tim Bradford x reader where Tim and Isabel were working together and the reader saw them laughing together and she turned around asking someone who that was and she knows all about Isabel but scared that Tim would leave her to be with Isabel and she said overthinking because she just found out she was pregnant and scared Tim would leave
Thanks for the request! I hope you enjoy and please let me know what you think! :)

The P Word
Author’s Note: Two fics in two days?
In 2013, Joe sent a dm to a recruiting analyst for scout.com, asking which camps he should attend because he was flying under the national radar.
Most four star recruits get about 20 college offers. He had 12.
At Ohio State he sat on the bench for three years, only gaining attention as a scout team player who would later have to graduate in three years just so he could transfer and get some playing time elsewhere.
That same scout team player would become the best player in college football and a Heisman trophy winner and the number one pick in the 2020 NFL Draft. A few years after that fateful private message to Dave Burk.
Robin Burrow had been there the entire time. Through every shining moment and the times that seemed rather dark. She drove two hours to do his laundry just to make sure he was physically and mentally healthy when he lived in Columbus, has attended every game since he began playing sports, made him snickers salad when he tore his ACL…and when he tore his scapholunate ligament in his wrist. All in all, she’s been a constant presence in the midst of all of the mayhem. To be frank, there’s nowhere else in the world she’d rather be than between him and anything that could possibly serve to harm him or cause him any pain, no matter how old he is.
That included protecting him from himself.

You hummed to yourself as you folded your warm laundry, your eyes scanning the pile of clothes, searching for any pieces of clothing that didn't belong. Joe's clothing always seemed to find their way into your basket, but you weren't complaining. You enjoyed the scent of his cologne lingering on the fabric, a sweet aroma that reminded you of his laugh and the way his eyes crinkled when he smiled. Sure enough, a stray LSU Football tee lay nestled between your own clothes, and you couldn't help the smile that appeared on your face as you held it to your nose.
Your thoughts were abruptly interrupted by the buzzing of your phone. It was late, the sky was pitch black outside, and you knew what that call meant. Your heart skipped a beat, and you felt the heat rush to your cheeks. You hadn't seen him - or fucked him - in almost a week. Between his season amping up, your classes, and your social lives, you had barely talked. But when Joe called, it was never just to catch up.
Part 4 - Poetic Man
Summary: Aurora continues to work on her new album but might have a new distraction
Warnings: None
a/n: So sorry it took so long for this part to come up. Finals week was KILLING me. So excited for Christmas break. Also, what are we all thinking of this break in at Joe's house???
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“One more time.” Jack Antenoff was helping Aurora put together her 6th studio album. Jack was well known for creating success all across the music industry; the two first started working together for her album “i used to think i could fly.” Jack reached over and put his headset on, signaling to Aurora that he wanted her to sing her song again. “Alright…..let’s do it from the beginning.”
Aurora heard the music begin and took a deep breath.
“You're so dumb and poetic
It's just what I fall for, I like the aesthetic
Every self-help book, you've already read it
Cherry-pick lines like they're words you invented
Gold star for highbrow manipulation
And "love everyone" is your favorite quotation
Try to come off like you're soft and well-spoken
Jack off to lyrics by Leonard Cohen”
Aurora had very obviously written this song about her past relationship with Paul; it was a song that had become very intimate and personal for her. She hesitated even adding it to the album. Aurora worried once he heard the lyrics she would receive a nasty phone call from his display all his distaste for her work.
"Don't think you understand
Just 'cause you talk like one doesn't make you a man
You're so sad, there's no communication
But baby, you put us in this situation
You're running so fast from the hearts that you're breakin'
Save all your breath for your floor meditation
You're so empathetic, you'd make a great wife
And I promise the mushrooms aren't changing your life
Will you crash the car and abandon the wreckage?
Fuck with my head like it's some kind of fetish”
Nothing Aurora did in her relationship with Paul was right; whether it was making the wrong dinner plans, flying out to see him on the wrong weekend, interrupting his ‘work time,’ or even just being in his presence, she knew he didn’t want her around. Many people would ask why she stayed with him for so long and there was only one answer, he knew how to manipulate her. When they would have a terrible fight, the next day he would buy her 100 red roses. A big gesture. Love bombing some people would say.
“Don't think you understand
Just 'cause you act like one doesn't make you a man
Don't think you understand
Just 'cause you leave like one doesn't make you a man”
“Honestly Aurora, that might have been the last take.” Jack leaned back with a huge grin plastered to his face high-fiving Mark. Aurora on the other hand felt sick to her stomach, singing such an intimate song had her feelings at an all-time low. She exited the recording booth and was greeted with a bunch of smiling faces. “What’s wrong, we release Espreso in five days and the album is almost done.”
“Speaking of that.” Mark cut Jack off and took a step closer to Aurora. “Have you decided who you want in your music video for your second single? We should probably think about filming it soon.”
“Yeah, I haven’t thought about it yet. Let me get back to you.” She let out a nervous giggle because Mark had already reminded her to pick someone, a month ago. “ Well, on that note I should definitely get going. I have two hungry football players at my house right now.” She quickly tried to grab her stuff without any more interrogations.
“Football players, who is at her house?” Aurora heard Jack but she didn’t have the effort to explain why she had two NFL players staying at her home.
“I think it’s that Joe Burrows dude and his friend. I don’t know and honestly, I don’t care.” That was all Aurora was able to hear before she let the door close behind her. She got in her car and hit the call button on Ja’Marr’s contact. It only took two quick rings for him to pick up.
“Hello, my girl. What’s up?”
“I’m heading home right now. Did you guys settle in okay? You didn’t fight him over who gets the bigger room right.” Aurora heard a laugh in the background, assuming it came from Joe her cheeks reddened.
“No Ma'am we did not start a fight in your home. Did miss you though Rory, thought you said it would only take you a little bit. It’s been five hours. I’m also starving. You don’t keep much food around here, like-”
“Okay Marr I get it, you're a starved man and it’s my fault. I’m only fifteen minutes away so how about we order when I get there, or can you not wait until I get there?”
“I guess, but you better buy some snacks for me. I’m not sure how you survive on wine and ramen noodles.” She let out a little laugh before sighing.
“Snack and dinner. I got it. I’ll be there soon. Love you, Marr.”
“Love you too Rory.” She hung up the phone, taking the exit to her house. Aurora sat in silence in her car, loud silence. For a few moments she thought about calling Ja’Marr back to fill the silent void for the last few minutes of her drive but instead, she pushed the on button to her radio. A random Dua Lipa song filled the car, only making Aurora forget about her thoughts for a couple of minutes.
Eventually, Aurora pulled into her driveway, seeing her living room lights were on and she could see Joe and Ja’Marr sitting on her couch. A black truck was parked in her driveway, which must have been what the boys rented for the days they were staying in California. She quickly parked her car in the garage and gathered all the stuff to bring inside when she was met with Ja’Marr at the door.
“Here, let me grab that.” He instantly took everything out of Aurora’s hands. When she was around Ja’Marr he treated her like a queen. “Soooo, I was thinking.”
“Well, that’s never good.” Aurora heard Joe say from the couch. She let out a little laugh.
“Yes Marr, what can I get you to eat tonight? I know I kept you waiting until,” Aurora took a quick glance at the time displayed on her stove, “5:30. Oh my gosh Ja’Marr it’s 5:30. I expected it to be around 7.”
“When I’m hungry, I’m hungry. Sorry girl.” Ja’Marr put his arm around Aurora as the two walked over to the couch. Joe was sitting comfortably watching Spongebob on the TV.
“Okay boys, what do we want? Pizza, Chinese, Italian, In-N-Out, or Mexican? All of that sounds really good to me so you can choose. Aurora exchanged glances between Joe and Ja’Marr until Joe finally spoke up.
“Pizza sounds good to me.”
“What kind are we getting?” Ja’Marr wasn’t too concerned with the food. He was too busy watching the content displayed on the TV.
“What about pepperoni and sausage?” Joe and Aurora said at the same time. She felt a blush grace her cheeks as she smiled at him.
“Yeah I’ll order it now-”
“No, I got it. You don’t need to be paying for our food when you’re already letting us stay here for free. I got it.” Joe left to go call in a pizza, leaving just Ja’Marr and Aurora.
Aurora could see Ja’Marr looking at her out of the corner of her eye. “Instead of staring at me Marr, why don’t you just say whatever you want to?” He chuckled awkwardly, rubbing his jaw.
“Me and Burrow were talking today. About you. A little bit. Not the whole time. Don’t let it get to your big head.” He gave a gentle push to Aurora’s shoulder making her giggle. “He mentioned that Tee sent him your interview. He seemed to think it was funny, in a cute way. Don’t be embarrassed Rory, he thinks you're cool.” She looked over to her left where Joe was standing in the doorway of her library on the phone. He hadn’t said much, or anything at all, to her since she got home.
“That interview got kinda out of hand. I’m embarrassed he even saw that.”
“You don’t listen. He thinks you’re a cool girl.” Ja’Marr wrapped his arm around Aurora pulling her into him. She was a little curious if Joe was still dating his long-term girlfriend from college. It had been reported a couple times that they had split but Aurora wanted to know from an inside source.
“Um, would he happen to still be dating that one girl from college? Not that I care or anything. I just see a lot of stuff on TikTok. You know.” Real Smooth Aurora. Ja’Marr looked down at the blonde girl with a cheesy grin.
“They did in fact break up. It was all on good terms. Joe is a very focused guy when it comes to football. Not sure that’s what she wanted. Sometimes he needed his space and they couldn’t agree on it. No bad blood as far as I’m concerned.” Aurora nodded her head. “So yes, he is single, Rory.” Ja’Marr poked her sides making her squirm and move away from him.
“I got three pizzas and an order of breadsticks. Also, Aurora, I noticed you have a lot of wine in your cabinets so I ordered some wine too. Hope you don’t mind.” Joe took his original spot next to Aurora on the couch.
“I could never mind someone buying me wine; that was very thoughtful of you.” She flashed the quarterback a quick smile.
“Pizza should be here in about 35 minutes.” Joe looked between Aurora and Ja’Marr.
“Did you guys want to put on a movie until then? The group decided to watch The Hangover until the pizza arrived. One of Ja’Marr’s favorite movies.
“Bro, did you see that tiger?” Ja’Marr was clutching his stomach from laughter. Aurora had stood up to get the pizza that just arrived.
“Yes, Marr. We all saw it. I’m pretty sure you’ve seen it about a thousand times too.” Aurora disappeared for about two minutes coming back with all the food. “Alright boys, I’ll let you get yours first.” She set out plates for everyone and a glass for her wine.
“Here,” Joe reached over to open the bottle of wine he ordered and opened it. “Let me get this for you.” He poured her a glass and got her a couple slices of pizza.
“Um, thanks.” Aurora grabbed the gestures from Joe and made her way back to the couch to finish their movie with dinner. As she was walking back to the couch she overhead Ja’Marr and Joe.
“Try hard?” Ja’Marr scoffed as he grabbed a beer out of the fridge.
“Dude, she’s just a nice girl. I’m not gonna be rude to someone who’s letting me stay in their house for free. I’ve never met her before either. Good first impressions.”
“You sure it’s nothing else loverboy?”
“Yes, I’m 100% percent sure. I’m focused on football, not girls.” Joe laughed. Even though there wasn’t anything going on between Joe and Aurora, she couldn’t help but feel disappointed. She hadn’t been able to move on since Paul and a very small part of her thought Joe would possibly be that person for her. It was a stupid thought anyway.
Joe and Ja’Marr joined Aurora on the couch to enjoy their pizza dinner and movie. Ja’Marr was able to eat 10 slices of pizza while Joe only had 6. Aurora stuck to her original 2 slices with a bread stick.
“Sorry to cut the night short but I’m gonna head to bed. Sleep good Rory. Night man.” Ja’Marr ruffled Aurora’s hair and dabbed up Joe. The two were left alone on the couch with the ending credits of The Hangover displayed on her TV.
After a long couple minutes of awkward silence, Joe cleared his throat. “So Ja’Marr tells me you are working on your sixth album. That’s a pretty big deal.” Aurora took a big drink of her wine finishing off the glass.
“Uh yeah, I am. It should be out sometime this summer. I’m really excited to release another album.”
“He told me you won Album of the Year at The Grammy’s last year. That’s huge. Congrats, I know it’s a little late.” Joe chuckled.
She swished around whatever was left of her wine. “Yeah, you know, you do something incredible like that and you feel like you need to live up to those expectations again. I just don’t want to let anyone down. I have an amazing producer and if I don’t win another Grammy with this next album I know I won’t only be letting myself down, it will also be hurting him.”
Aurora looked over at Joe and by the look on his Face she knew he wasn’t sure what to say to her singer/songwriter trauma. “Can I get you another glass of wine?” Aurora debated before she answered his question. Did he want to down here talking to her? This would be her third glass of wine.
“Yeah, sure.” Joe hopped up from the couch and walked over to the kitchen. Aurora couldn’t help but observe him in person. He was a good-looking guy; even better in person.
“Here you go. Tell me more about yourself. How did you get your start in music?” Joe got himself comfortable on the couch; showing Aurora he had no plans of heading to bed anytime soon.
“My first album was “Singular Act I,” so that was obviously my big start. My huge single off of that album was Sue Me. Have you ever heard it?”
“Uhhhh, I don’t think so. Don’t hate me.” Joe laughed, making Aurora crack a smile.
“No hurt feelings. One day I just started posting videos of myself singing on Youtube and it started blowing up. Eventually, a record label contacted me and they wanted to produce a single. Fun fact, it wasn’t Sue Me.”
“Do I get to hear this legendary single?” Joe smirked at Aurora.
“Absolutely not. I like to brush that song under the rug. I never-”
“You know if you don’t play it for me right now I’ll just look it up later. Matter of fact, let’s look it up right now.” Joe pulled his phone out of his pocket and started typing something into Google. Aurora jumped up from her spot on the couch to move closer to Joe.
“Joe stop, I hate that song. I’m not kidding. Listen to it later, not right now.” Aurora reached for Joe’s phone the second she heard the beginning verse to Thumbs playing out of the speakers. “JOE, stop it right now.” Aurora couldn’t contain her laughter at this point. She was leaning over him, grasping for the phone.
“And the bank robbed the people, so the people robbed the bank.” Joe sang along, laughing in Aurora’s face. She took one more reach for his phone, failing, before falling back beside him. After the song ended Joe tuned toward the blonde girl.
“Honestly, I was expecting worse. Not sure what skidledeee deee dat dum means but I can roll with it. Definitely added to my warm-up playlist.” Joe gave Aurora a cheesy smile before bursting out laughing.
“I fucking hate you.”
Aurora and Joe sat on the couch and talked until 2 am while Aurora drank, not one, but two, bottles of wine. She definitely would feel that in the morning. Joe knew that as the night whet on Aurora had become wine drunk and nothing she said he could take too seriously. She did tell him he had the most beautiful eyes she had ever seen, and that the curl in his hair was his best feature. Around two thirty Aurora passed out on Joe's lap while watching How To Train Your Dragon.
Joe carried Aurora up to her room while also trying to figure out which one was hers. When they finally made it there and he had tucked her into bed; it was time for his escape. He felt her hand grasp his wrist.
“Can you please stay? Please Joe, just this once.” Aurora hardly opened her eyes but that was all the convincing Joe needed to stay.

boyfriend!joe x fem!reader
summary: joe helps you put up your christmas decorations… and a star on top completes all the scenery ;)
warnings: nsfw mdni!!! kinda sweet smutty fluff, riding, p in v (wrap yo willy!!), lots of kissing and cheesiness
word count: 2k.
note: ALAS! i made it in time. if it sucks i’m sorry. i listened to a nonsense christmas by sabrina carpenter, music for a sushi restaurant and santa baby by ariana grande & liz gillies while writing 🤍 (please appreciate the spongebob joke in the summary hehe)
you’d think six boxes full of christmas decorations would be enough for just two people. joe dragged them out of storage one by one so you could go through them and arrange them how you wanted, but here you were elbows deep in the fourth box while you chatted to him about more stuff you needed.
he wasn’t mad, not by any means, he actually found it cute how much you loved to decorate… but jeez. did anyone need this much stuff? anyone in the world?
“i realllllly need them joe!” you exaggerated, earning a sarcastic eyeroll from him. “they’re flocked nutcrackers! and they come in white, pink, red, black… and i even saw a disco ball nutcracker, and…”
joe crossed the room quickly and silenced your ranting with a kiss. “bub, i promise, this weekend we’ll go find the nutcrackers, okay? for now, let’s decorate with what we do have.”
Having MANY thoughts.

Part 3 - Vogue
Summary: Aurora's dreams come true at vogue but she also get's a surprise visitor
Warnings: None
a/n: Do we like Ja'Marr and Aurora's friendship?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Aurora spent the last couple days in the studio. She was trying to finish up one last song before the album would be ready to release. The record label wanted to release Espresso next week and Aurora had mixed feelings. She was ready to hop back into the music world but Aurora also felt the pressure to live up to what Midnights was. The label also had plans to release a second single. Aurora couldn’t decide if she wanted to release her song “Please Please Please” or “Don’t Smile.” She had to admit, “Don’t Smile” was her favorite out of the two. Aurora really took her time while writing that song and it felt so personal. “Please Please Please” was such a fun song about begging a man not to break her heart. Something Aurora was used to doing. She was lost in thought in her studio when Mark came in.
“Okay Rory, you have your fitting in 3 hours for Vogue. I’m not sure what they are gonna put you in yet so let's not wear a lot of makeup.”
“I still can’t believe they want ME to be in one of their fashion shows!” Aurora squealed. So many things had gone wrong for her in the last year but also she had been so blessed.
“You do realize how popular you are right? You aren’t just some singer. You’re right behind Taylor this year for streams on Spotify and Apple Music. You’re fucking killing the game.”
“I’m gonna blush Marky. Stop it.” Aurora giggled while taking off her headset and grabbing her phone. After her two disastrous interviews last week her phone has been on constant DND. The first person to call her was Sydney, asking when the fuck she started getting dicked down by Burrow. Taylor also called to reassure her that it would blow over and the worst fans could do is ship the quarterback and singer together. This didn’t seem to calm Aurora much because she had chewed off her acrylic nails and had to get them replaced.
She did notice that the infamous quarterback had taken time out of his day to follow her on Instagram, meaning he definitely saw that interview. Embarrassing. Maybe Ja’Marr just told Joe what happened, that’s what Aurora liked to tell herself.
Ja’Marr and Aurora had become close ever since her break up with Paul. She knew Ja’Marr from when she attended a Bengals game his rookie year in 2021. They exchanged numbers to stay in touch and eventually a friendship developed. A couple times Aurora wondered if something more would come out of it but they always stayed friends. Ja’Marr is one the sweetest people Aurora has ever met in her life, it was probably for the best that they stayed friends. She wouldn’t want to ruin something good like that.
“Alright, we should probably get going. It’s about a two hour drive and there might be traffic.” Mark started packing up Aurora’s bag. He was always so good about remembering everything she would need.
“I think I’m ready….okay let’s go.” Aurora opened up the door to feel the sun on her skin. When she moved to a different city she would miss the constant sun. Although, she does miss all four seasons. Aurora grew up in Ankeny, Iowa so she experienced every single season. Winter was her favorite time of the year. The way the wind was always blowing, the beautiful snowflakes, and the winter time outfits. Everything was perfect. Aurora needed some winter living her in life. Aurora took a step up into the car Mark had waiting for them; the anticipation in her was building up.
“What if they think I look bad in their outfits? I mean they could just say they don’t need me. That would be so embarrassing. Oh my gosh, you can’t let that happen Mark. I will cry. What if I-”
“Oh my god, will you stop. They personally called and asked for you. It’s gonna be fine.”
“But what if-”
“Nope I don’t want to hear any of it. They want you here. You have to stop acting like you’re a burden.” After giving Aurora a deep glare, Mark reached into his bag to dig out his AirPod Maxes. She turned to look out the window; this was gonna be a long car ride

“Hello beautiful lady, my name is Jules and this is Danny. We will be helping you out today. Follow us right this way.” Ever since Aurora arrived at her fitting she’s been in awe. The building was beautiful and everyone working for Vogue was stunning. “Alright, here is where we will be doing your fitting.” The room was an oval shape filled with mirrors. Everywhere Aurora looked she could see herself.
“This place is beautiful; none of this feels real.” She let out a little laugh.
“Just to let you know we do have two guys coming in later to get fitted also. They will probably show up while we are working on you. Is that alright?” Jules didn’t seem to think it was a big deal, continuing to rummage through the rack of dresses.
“Yeah, no, that’s no problem. I’m totally flexible. Whatever you guys need.”
“Way to not lay it on thick.” Mark whispered in her ear. Aurora smacked his stomach but all he did was laugh.
“Aurora, follow me this way. We are going to put you in this dress first. Come on out when you put it on.”
This is the first dress https://www.pinterest.com/pin/638385315960478493/
Aurora turned around in the dressing room to see herself. This dress flattered her in multiple ways. This was a surreal moment.
“You look beautiful in that. Okay Danny take the waist in a little and see if it looks a little better.” Jules ordered about 5 or 6 different people around while Aurora just watched. Eventually Aurora saw Jules standing behind her just observing the dress.
“The dress is beautiful and so are you, but I think we need to find something else. This one isn’t it.” Jules started to undo the dress and hand Aurora the next one. It was a stunning gold color. The bottom didn’t have a lot of material to it and she wondered if she could pull off a look like this. While Aurora was slipping her dress on she heard some commotion and more voices. I wonder if it’s a model or someone famous. Maybe it can be Michael B Jordan.
“Hey Jules, can you zip my dress up. I can’t reach this one. When Aurora peaked her head out she saw a tall white man talking with Mark. His back was facing her so she wasn’t sure who it was, she did know one thing for sure, it wasn’t Michael B Jordan.
“Alright girl, you’re all good to go. This dress is stunning on you, might even impress Mr.Burrow out there. Aurora felt all the color drain from her face. Mr.Burrow, as in Joe Burrow. No, no, no, no. I can’t go out there. Whats the chance I’m walking in the same show as Joe Burrow. Jules didn’t seem to understand that Joe being here wasn’t a good thing because she walked back out to the main room to resume their conversation.
Okay, I have to go out there at some point. Maybe he won’t even see me. Okay, deep breaths. I got this. Aurora decided it was now or never. He might not have even seen that stupid interview.
This is the second dress https://www.pinterest.com/pin/397583473371425396/
Aurora cautiously stepped out of her dressing room, trying not to draw all the attention to herself. Unfortunately, her wish wouldn’t come true.
“Rory, oh my god, I didn’t know you would be here. I missed you so much. You don’t call enough anymore.” In mere seconds she was being engulfed in a tight hug. She pulled back to get a look at the mystery man's face. It was none other than Ja’Marr Chase.
“Marr. I missed you so much! It’s been almost 6 months since I’ve seen you. How have you been?” Truthfully, Ja’Marr was one of Aurora’s favorite people on the planet. He was there for her after Paul broke her heart into a million pieces. He even opened his home up to her for a month when she needed to escape the flashing lights of LA.
“You know, I’ve been balling out. We have a little bit before the season starts though, Rory. If you ever want to come visit me. My home is open.” Ja’Marr had let Aurora out of her hug and she had made her way over to get fitted into her gold stunning dress.
“What are we thinking about this one Aurora? I love the bottom and how it shows you off more than the pink one.” Jules studied her body for a while. Aurora caught Ja’Marr’s eyes in the mirror and smiled. It was nice to see him again; she didn’t realize how much she missed his presence. “I have another one I want you to try on. I wouldn’t let just anyone try the next one on, but you’ll love stunning it.” Jules started to undo the shining gold dress when Aurora caught her first glance of Joe Burrow. He was getting fitted into a black suit with Danny. She saw Joe turn around to grab something out of his dressing room when the breath in her throat got caught. It’s backless.
“Here you go. Try this one.” Jules dropped a dark gold dress into her hands. This seems a little…skimpy.
“You need help in there, Rory?” Ja’Marr let out a laugh. She figured he was kidding but deep down she didn’t know. Ja’Marr was known for being a flirt with her but nothing had actually happened between them. Except for that one night while she was living with him, but that's besides the point.
“Don’t be a perv Marr. I’ll manage.” It took Aurora a couple minutes to figure out how to put this dress on. Once on, she saw how it complimented every part of her. Her boobs looked amazing and it made her hair glow. There was no way Jules didn’t think this was the dress. It did show a lot of skin; not much of her chest was covered. Is it too much?
This is dress three https://www.pinterest.com/pin/684828687122375381/
Aurora pulled the curtain of her dressing room back to see Joe standing next to Ja’Marr, deep in conversation.
“This is it. I can already tell. Danny, can you grab my tape measure?” Jules led Aurora up to the mirrors so she was on display for everyone to see. “I think all we need to do is shorten it but other than that, Aurora, it’s all good. This was made for you.” Jules displayed a huge grin.
“I second that. Rory, you are beautiful.” A slight blush graced her cheeks from Ja’Marr’s comments. He then reached forward to pick her up and spin her around in a circle. Aurora let out a mix between a squeal and a laugh.
“Marr put me down. I’m gonna have a wardrobe malfunction.” Ja’Marr gently set Aurora down when she locked eyes with Joe.
“Hey, I’m Joe Burrow.” He reached out to shake her hand; she was too busy staring into his baby blue eyes when Ja’Marr nudged her shoulder.
“Aurora Prince. Nice to meet you Joe. I’ve been to a couple Bengals games and I hope to be back again this year. If Marr will get me some tickets.” Aurora looked over at Ja’marr making a begging symbol with her hand. He laughed and lightly pushed her away.
“Don’t worry about it Aurora. Whenever you want to come just tell me, you’re always welcome to use my suite. More the better.” Aurora couldn’t tell if Joe was trying to flirt with her if he just was being a gentleman.
“Honestly, I might have to take you up on that offer. I love watching you guys play, I’m a huge fan.” Joe flashed a big grin at her; she couldn’t help but notice how perfect he was.
“Joe and Aurora, we would like to invite both of you to our fashion show in France in June. We would also like both of you to walk in it, together. Aurora you will wear the gold dress we picked out today and Joe you will wear the black backless suit. What do you say?” Jules handed Joe and Aurora a contract to sign after.
“Yes, 100 times, I will be there. Thank you guys so much.” Aurora didn’t have to think about her answer. This had been her dream forever, she would do anything for it.
“I’ll also be there. Thank you guys.” Joe then turned his attention towards Aurora. “So me and you, we are kinda teammates now.” He let out a little laugh and awkwardly grabbed the back of his neck. “Sorry, that was cringy. I’m glad we are walking together. I agree with Ja’Marr, you are beautiful.”
“Thank you Joe.” A deep blush was present on Aurora's face. Not only had she met her celebrity crush, he was now complimenting her.
“Well, I’m gonna get changed, but I hope to see you around Aurora.” Joe smiled and started to walk to his dressing room when Ja’Marr grabbed Aurora’s arm.
“Hey, we don’t fly out to Cincinnati for a couple of days, are you gonna free at all.”
“For you, I’m not sure.” Aurora smiled and leaned into Ja’Marr’s touch. He embraced her in a side hug.
“I missed you, homegirl. You still home shopping?” Aurora just nodded her head yes. “Well I hope you deeply consider cincinnati. I would love to have you close and you know, Joe only lives about 10 houses down from me.” Aurora laughed; so they had seen her interview.
“I’m thinking about it, Marr. I just need to get these singles out, maybe even the album, and then I can focus on moving.” Aurora knew she needed to get out of LA, it wasn’t bringing her happiness anymore; only a reminder of bad memories. “I should probably get changed, but I want to see you before you leave for Cincinnati. Is it just you and Joe?”
“Yeah, we fly out Sunday morning at 8am. So we will be here for another five days. Why?” Ja’Marr had let go of Aurora as she was heading into her dressing room.
“You’re more than welcome to come stay at my house. No point in paying for a hotel room when I have six empty rooms at my house.” Aurora had started to change out of her scandalous dress and back into her grey sweats and Nike hoodie. Once changed, Aurora came back out only to be met with Joe and Ja’Marr. “Seriously, cancel your hotel and come over to my place tonight. It will be nice to have people over.” She flashed a big grin at Joe. Honestly, she just wanted him to stay at her place forever, he was easy on the eyes. “What do you guys say?”
Ja’Marr and Joe shared a quick look and Ja’Marr shrugged, “You’re on.”
“Great! I have to get back in the studio for a while but feel free to make yourselves at home. I should be back around four or five. We can order takeout. See you guys later.” With that Aurora excused herself and walked back out to her car. Once out of Joe’s presence she was able to let a breath go that she didn’t realize she was holding in.
“I did something stupid Mike.” Aurora sighed and glanced over at Mike who still had his air pods on.
“Do I even want to know?”
