4 Times you and Auston were almost caught and the 1 time you willingly told everyone
Warnings: smut (oral receiving, P in V) no arguing for like the first time?
You loved the morning time, especially slow mornings. It was rare for you to get a morning that didn’t involve rushing from one thing to the next, so the days you did you cherished it. This morning was extra sweet as you felt the arm that never left your waist all night still settled there.
You peeked over your shoulder at Auston who was still comfortably sleeping. The sunrise reflected perfectly on him. The lighting made him look even more attractive, almost ethereal. You picked up your phone on the night stand. Most notifications were the usual, texts from your manager and publicist, your parents and siblings, and your friends. After going though all of them the pressure on your bladder that you tried to ignore had become unbearable.
You gently lifted Auston’s arm and attempted to slip from under it, but his grip tightened as he pulled you back into his body.
“No.” He grumbled into your shoulder.
“I have to go to the bathroom.” You stated picking his arm up again and this time he let you.
“Not making any promises.” You joked going into the bathroom. After using the bathroom you stood looking at yourself in the mirror. Your body was covered with hickey’s and bruises.
As you gently touched your hips where hand shape bruises had formed you noticed the way your legs subconsciously clenched. Despite the slight discomfort you enjoyed having all of the marks on your body knowing they were from him. They allowed you to relive the night all over again.
You crawled back under the covers and into Auston’s arms but this time you faced him. You watched as his eyes remained closed, but you knew he was awake from the way his hand rubbed up and down your back.
“Last time you were in my bed there was a pillow wall.”
“I don’t see a wall anymore.” You lifted the covers to look between the two of you, “But I do see a lot less clothing.” A chuckle rumbled deep in his chest.
“You also stayed past sunrise this time.”
Your chest tightened at the reminder of the first night you stayed in his bed and how you were out of it just as quick as you were in.
You ran your fingers through his hair giving his scalp a gentle massage, “Im sorry. It’s different now.”
He shrugged, eyes still closed, “not the first time.” He slowly dragged his hand over your hip before it was on your ass and pulling you on top of him. He laughed at your surprised squeal as he finally opened his eyes and smiled looking up at you, “Now we just have more time to go again.”
He leaned up to place a kiss on your lips. His hips also moved up allowing his cock to slip between your folds. You moaned into the kiss as you started moving your own hips.
It was ridiculous, really, that dry humping could get you this hot and bothered, but it did. Another moan passed your lips as you nails dug into his shoulders.
“Auston, please.” You begged. You had him where you wanted, but you needed more, you needed all of him.
“Tell me what you need, baby.”
“You.” You moaned out into his shoulder, “I need you.” Auston grabbed himself between your bodies lining himself up with your entrance.
“I want you to be loud as you want, baby.”
But before things could go any further you heard the front door open and slam shut. Your head shot up from where you were kissing on his neck, “who is that?”
“Aus, you ready to go?” You recognized Mitch’s voice.
Auston groaned throwing his head back into his pillow, “fuck, I can’t believe I forgot.”
“What are they doing here?” You hissed climbing off of him, your previous activities long forgotten.
“Looks like he got busy last night!” You could hear Willy’s voice laugh. Your eyes widened and your heart began to pound. All of your clothes had come off last night before you made it to Auston’s bedroom.
You felt a sense of panic set in as you could only imagine what Will had found. “Tell her the matching set is a nice touch.” Your cheeks burned up at the thought of him finding the blue lingerie you had worn.
“This can’t be happening.” You whispered to yourself trying to think of any excuse as to why you would be in Auston’s apartment. Specifically why you were in his bed…naked…and covered in hickeys…yep you were totally screwed.
“Auston, seriously” That was Morgan’s voice, “you’re going to make us late.”
“Get under the bed.” Auston instructed, in a hushed tone.
“I’m naked.” You yelled back in a hushed tone as well, “I’m not getting under the bed!”
“Then get in the closet.”
“Im not hiding in your closet.” You refused, feeling claustrophobic just from looking at it.
“Then go in the bathroom.” Auston’s patience was wearing very thin.
“Come out or we’re coming in.” Mitch warned knocking once.
“Give me a sec!” Auston yelled helping you stand from the bed. You wrapped the sheet around your body and ran into the bathroom shutting the door right as his bedroom one opened.
“Good morning, Auston.” Mitch said in a sing song voice, “It was obviously good for you.”
You leaned into the bathroom door until your left ear was pressed against it in an attempt to hear everything.
“You guys couldn’t wait till I came out.” Auston responded, the frustrated tone that you were used to hearing only directed at you was used.
“I voted to wait, Mitch wanted to barge in.” Morgan leaned against the door frame crossing his arms over his chest.
“I just wanted to meet the girl.” Mitch walked around the room looking for any signs of who Auston may be hiding.
“Here are all of her clothes.” Will walked in dropping everything on the floor.
“10 minutes please, just to get dressed.” Auston begged wanting nothing more than for them to leave.
“We’ll wait.” Mo shrugged. All three boys stood still watching their teammate.
“I’m naked.” Auston mumbled.
All three burst out laughing, “we were just fucking with you, we’ll wait in the living room.” Will assured letting out a loud laugh again. Right as they were all shuffling out the door you turned on the shower knowing you were in the clear.
“I swear to God if you get in that shower and have sex with her while we’re waiting, we’re leaving your ass.” Mitch warned closing the door behind them.
“This is (y/n), Auston’s girlfriend.” Ema introduced you to the table filled with Auston’s family members.
“My friend, mom, not girlfriend.” Auston corrected. You would be lying if you said that didn’t sting a little bit, but you brushed it off as you smiled sitting down at the chair Auston had pulled out for you.
Your invite to Arizona was something Auston had planned for a while. He knew he wanted you to meet his family it was just a matter of when. It was difficult to find a few free days with your intense schedule but you moved some things around to make it work. You knew it was risky traveling with paparazzi and your fans following your every move, but you were careful to cover your tracks.
Dinner with his family reminded you of times spent with your own family. Stories were shared, people talking over one another, and lots of laughter. You felt comfortable and for the first time in a while you felt at ease.
Even long after the plates were cleared from the table you all remained. Auston kept his left arm on the back of your chair and his right hand on your thigh as you talked with with his aunts about what exactly your lifestyle entailed.
“(Y/n)!” Paige shouted running up to your chair, “will you come play fairies with us!” You giggled looking at the little girl with fake fairy wings on her back. Behind her stood Grace and two other girls. One was Auston’s other cousin Mia who was five and Madison, their neighbor who was eight.
“Paigey, she doesn’t want-“
“I would love to!” You cut Auston off. You gave him a bright smile standing from your chair. You crouched down next to Paige so she could help you put on your fairy wings before you took her hand and walked further into the backyard.
While his family continued to mingle around him, some even talking with him, Auston’s eyes never left you. He watched as you ran around with the little girls pretending you could fly and participating in a fairy tea party.
“You are so in love with her,” Auston turned to see Alex had taken the empty seat next to him.
Alex hummed, “really? because you haven’t stopped staring at her since she got here.”
“Yes, I have.” Auston was thankful that it was getting dark and the redness that was starting to crawl up his neck wouldn’t be noticeable.
“I wish you could’ve seen yourself during dinner. Anytime she talked you would just look at her and smile.” Alex laughed, “but don’t worry…” she didn’t look over at her younger brother before continuing to talk, “She was doing the same thing.”
Auston shook his head. He didnt know if he was disagreeing with what Alex said about him or you. He didn’t want to believe he was acting like that and he couldn’t believe you were either, “Our friendship is…complicated.”
“I’m not mom or nana, I know your hooking up.” Alex shrugged like it was no big deal. While Auston never shared his dating life with his sisters, he knew they weren’t nieve.
“Mhm.” She nodded, taking a sip of her drink, “Like I said, it’s the way you look at each other.”
“How do we look at each other” his eyes still remained on you.
“Like there’s nothing better or more interesting in the world to look at.” That hit Auston in the chest…hard, “it’s actually sickening to watch.”
Alex continued talking, but Auston stopped listening. Your relationship was always clear cut, until it wasn’t. Even when you transitioned to friends with benefits you both made it clear that it was just that, but was there something more? Had he fucked everything up by inviting you here?
He remained so caught up in his own thoughts that he didn’t realize the sun slowly started to set and your game had finished.
“Aus, we want ice cream.” Grace demanded carrying her youngest sister, Hope on her hip.
“Did your mom say it was okay?”
“Yeah she’s at the fire pit and told me to ask you.” Auston looked past Grace and towards the fire pit his parents had built. A majority of his aunts and uncles sat around it, drinks in their hands.
“Alright let’s go.” He stood up picking up his two year old cousin out of her sister’s hands and led the group of girls inside, you trailing in the back.
Auston scooped each girl their requested ice cream, saving you for last. He handed you a cone which you happily excepted.
“Nice wings,” he commented at the plastic ones you had yet to take off.
You suddenly felt embarrassed about the wings and the tiara sitting on your head. You took the wings off first. “It’s silly, but the girls wanted-” You tried explaining while reaching up to remove the tiara as well.
“Don’t take it off.” Auston grabbed your wrist, “it suits you.” He smiled watching as you blushed at his compliment. He fixed the tiara so it was sitting on your head properly, holding eye contact. You cleared your throat reminded that you were surrounded by his cousins as Hope wedged her way in between the two of you. She lifted her arms to be picked up, which you happily did sitting down with her at the island.
“Hope a good girl for finishing her ice cweam.” The two year old cheered sticking out her hands for Auston to clean.
“You are a good girl for finishing.” Auston affirmed cleaning off her sticky fingers.
“Tell (y/n) she a good girl too for finishing her ice cweam.” You giggled at the two year olds babbling.
“Yeah, tell me I’m a good girl too.” You smirked up at Auston, giggling as he cleared his throat.
“She already knows she’s one.” He replied to Hope, his eyes flickering over to you.
As the night wore on more family members left, until it was the faithful few still sitting around the fire pit. You offered to help Auston with the dishes and even though he refused you stood beside him at the sink; you drying as he washed.
You worked in a comfortable silence the only sound coming from those outside and the speaker that was playing music.
“I think last time we were in a kitchen together we were baking Justin’s cake.” You thought out loud giggling at the disaster that afternoon was.
“And before that you were throwing a drink in my face.” Auston bumped you with his shoulder. It was nice to laugh about the situation now because in the moment it was anything but funny.
You took the cup he handed you drying it off, “I guess us and kitchens don’t really mix.”
“Nah.” He shook his head dunking his hands back in the water. “We could always make a new memory though.”
“If you try to stab me with the knife your mom used to cut the cake, I will sue.”
“That wasn’t my first thought.” Auston laughed lifting his hands up to show they were empty.
“What’s the new memory then?” You questioned, “Us doing dishes?” You placed another dried plate On the towel next to the sink.
“No that’s boring. I was thinking something a little more…us.” You didn’t get a chance to question him before a splash of water hit your chest. You looked over at him in disbelief as he busted out laughing. You wasted no time splashing him back. You both fought over dominance of the sink as you flung water and soap at each other. You laughed giving Auston one last splash as he slipped on the water that accumulated all over the floor. He quickly grabbed onto you with one hand and the counter with the other.
“Careful.” You giggled, “I don’t want to be responsible for breaking Hockey’s golden boy.”
You laughed at the soap bubbles that sat on top of Auston’s head knowing you probably looked the exact same.
“That’s a good look on you.” Auston joked playing with the soap on top of your head.
“Better than after my Atlanta show?” You asked referring to the night after your concert you surprised him with an outfit that left very little to the imagination.
“Oh yeah, much better.” He nodded his hands finding your hips and backing you into the counter.
“I probably look like a wet dog.” You giggled rolling your eyes.
Auston placed his hand on your chin to make you look at him, “You look really beautiful,” the words surprised him as much as they surprised you. “I like when you don’t look perfect.”
Your eyes stayed locked on each other. Your breathing matched each other as you could feel his chest rising and falling at the same time yours was. You could hear your heart pounding in your ears and hoped his was doing the same. You felt his thumb rubbing small circles on your waist as the other moved to cup the back of your head. Your were so close, you could feel his breath on your lips, but before they could touch the back sliding door opened.
You jumped apart, Auston’s hand going to the back of his neck as you picked up the towel you were using to dry.
“Did you end up washing yourselves instead of the dishes?” His mom laughed pointing at the state of both of you.
“Yeah it got a little messy,” you commented using the towel to keep your hands busy. You refused to look at Auston and you knew he was doing the same.
“Cheers to summer! Cheers to (y/n)’s tour, and cheers to the Leafs season!” Justin held his glass up as the rest of you followed suit.
The Bieber’s decided to throw a pool party at their LA house as an opportunity to see all of their friends. You stood in between your best friends clinking your glasses together before taking a sip.
“We’re proud of you.” One of your best friend rested her head on your shoulder giving you a side hug. You shrugged the comment off, wanting no attention.
“Let’s go in the pool.” You suggested. It was a calculated move and maybe even a jealous one, but watching Hailey’s model friends all over Auston all afternoon had you in a bad mood.
You marched over to the seat where you placed your bag and towel earlier and took your time removing your clothes. You knew Auston was sitting at the patio table, two girls on either side of him. Both were fighting for his attention, taking turns getting closer, playfully hitting his arm, and giggling at anything he said. You spent the afternoon watching from afar and you were over it.
“Damn, you look good.” Your best friend let out a low whistle as you laughed and gave her a spin, “like really good.”
“Whose heart are you trying to break today?” Your other best friend joked giving your butt a slap.
You were aware you didn’t necessarily look like a model, but Auston loved your body, he said so himself every time you were together. And the compliments you received from others didn’t hurt either.
You and your friends lounged around in the pool even engaging in some pool games. Your best friend was on Ryan’s shoulders as you were on Mason’s going back in forth in a game of chicken.
“C’mon, (y/l/n), knock her off!” Mason encouraged from below you as he attempted to trip Ryan under the water.
“I’m trying.” You and (y/bff/n) were in a deadlock as you held onto each other’s shoulder’s.
“Now!” Mason shouted as he got his foot around the back of Ryan’s ankle tripping him as you pushed (y/bff/n) off his shoulders at the same time. They crashed into the water as you and Mason began celebrating. He pulled you off his shoulders wrapping you in a tight hug.
“The dream team.” You smiled giving him a high five before going to shake your opponent’s hands.
Despite Mason’s pleading you gracefully bowed out of another round climbing out of the water and drying off. You went over to the table set up with all of the food, filling a plate with various finger foods.
“Having fun?” You didn’t look up from the fruit you were picking up, but nodded at Auston’s question.
“Are you?” You’re tone was short and your voice even.
“I am.” He confirmed filling up a plate as well. Auston’s tone matched your own and that’s when you knew you had him exactly where you wanted him.
Auston got jealous easily, easier than you. Ever since you started your situationship he didn’t like when other guys even looked in your direction and he made that known.
You may have been watching him all afternoon, but he was also watching you. He watched as a guys hand lingered on your waist a little too long for his liking. He watched as one of your friends looked you up and down in your bikini despite him having a long time girlfriend. And he watched as you sat on Mason’s shoulders in the pool. He was the only one that belonged between your thighs.
“I bet you are.” You couldn’t help the twinge of jealousy that accompanied your comment. Auston stopped your hand from picking anything else up.
“The attitude isn’t cute.” His voice was low and hot in your ear, “I know you just want my attention.”
You bit down hard on the inside of your cheek as your body involuntarily reacted to him. You knew he had the upper hand right now, but you didn’t want to lose.
“Is it working?” You smirked feeling the bulge in his swim trunks against your leg.
“Meet me in the bathroom in 10.” He released your arm leaving you standing alone and breathless.
You took your plate of food back to your seat, but didn’t touch any of it. Time felt like it was moving painfully slow, but as it neared 10 minutes you promptly stood up.
Passing Auston on your way in, you dragged your fingers along his arm giving each other a fleeting glance before making your way up stairs. You went to the first bathroom on your left and quickly took a second to fix your hair and readjust your bikini. It wasn’t long before you heard the door knob turning and Auston came in.
“You’re acting like such a brat-“ you cut him off crashing your lips into his own. The white button down linen shirt he wore made his skin look even more tan and you wanted to kiss every inch of his body.
Auston backed you up into the counter lifting you up so you were sitting on it as he stood between your legs. He left kisses all along your chest and shoulder before meeting your lips again. You knew your lips were going to be bruised later from how forcefully he was kissing you, but you didn’t care. All you could focus on was the way his arms felt in your hands.
It was like you couldn’t get enough of each other. Your hands were all over each other grabbing and scratching. And it didn’t matter that your lungs were on fire, you didn’t want to stop kissing him. Auston finally pulled away allowing you both to catch your breath. Through panting breaths he smirked.
“You like that huh? Pissing me off.”
“Almost as much as I like what comes after.”
Auston bit down on his lip shaking his head at you before kissing you again. One hand kept you in place on the counter as the other untied your bikini top, letting it fall to the floor.
“So fucking perfect.” He breathed out staring at your chest before taking one of your nipples in his mouth and massaging the other with his hand. You kept your hands locked around his neck throwing your head back and closing your eyes.
So caught up in the moment you didn’t hear someone knocking. The door sprung open and your eyes snapped open making eye contact with Ryan.
“Oh my god.” He chocked out before covering his eyes with one of his hands and using the other to try and find the door handle. He rambled out an apology as you dropped from the counter.
“It’s fine, really.” You tried reassuring him as you pushed Auston away and scrambled to grab your top. You slammed the door shut in his face covering your chest with your free arm.
“Why are you smiling?” You furrowed your eyebrows at Auston, “he’s going to tell (y/bff/n) who’s going to tell (b/ff/n#2), who’s going to tell Mason, who will literally tell everyone.” Your voice rose as you became more panicked.
“Because he’s not going to say anything.” Auston placed his hands on your shoulders. He turned you around so your back was towards him as he retied your top.
"Because you’re going to talk to him.” Auston placed a kiss on your shoulder before turning you back around.
“I can’t talk to him, he just saw my boobs.” You whined pointing at your chest.
“And they look great.” Auston assured you, “it’s either you talk to him or everyone finds out and with how often you tell me to not even look at you in public I’m guessing you don’t want everyone to know.”
Auston placed another kiss on your lips, “Oh and make sure you tell him I said ‘fuck you’ for interrupting before we even got to the good part.”
You suppressed a smile, turning on your heel, “Make sure five minutes passes before you come out.” You closed the door behind you going to beg your best friend’s boyfriend to keep this secret.
The hot water felt both relaxing and refreshing as it glided down your body. So caught up in your own thoughts you almost didn’t hear the glass door open.
“No.” You insisted turning around to see who was attempting to break your peace.
“C’mon. I have to be back at the hotel in 45 minutes to leave for the rink. That’s not enough time to shower there.” Auston was already undressed with one foot in the shower.
“You should’ve thought about that when I told you to get up earlier.”
“Oh you mean right after I went down on you for the third time this morning? Sorry I was out of energy then.”
Your stomach did a flip at the reminder of the earlier hours in the morning.
“Fine.” You conceded “but keep your hands to yourself.”
“That should be a note to self, you’re the one who can’t keep your hands off of me.” Auston teased closing the door behind him.
You giggled innocently shrugging your shoulders, “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
You continued rinsing off before switching spots with Auston. You worked conditioner through your hair as he washed off. When you went to switch spots again Auston gave your hip a squeeze.
“Hands to yourself, remember?”
“It was one touch.” He didn’t move his hand though, instead he allowed it to stay there tilting his head to the side as his eyes moved up and down your body.
“And that’s all it’s going to be. I’m getting out.” You finalized after rinsing out all of the conditioner.
You moved Auston’s hand from your hip and went to reach for the door handle, but just as you were about to grab it Auston pulled you into his chest, “just one round baby, please, I’ll be quick, I promise.” He kissed along your neck starting at your shoulder and working his way up until he was sucking the sweet spot behind your ear.
“No.” You tried to sound stern, but the sigh that passed your lips and the way you tilted your head to give him more access was less than convincing.
“Give me 10 minutes.” He promised between kisses.
“You’re a terrible negotiator, I could’ve been done in 5.”
“(Y/n)?” You both froze at the new voice on the other side of the bathroom door. You knew it was your manager, Veronica. You weren’t expecting her, but this wouldn’t be the first time she’s showed up unannounced. “We need to go over your schedule for the next few days.”
You slapped your hand over Auston’s mouth, “I’m kinda busy right now.”
“There’s no other time today, we have interviews, studio time, and meetings all day.”
“And why couldn’t this be a phone call or a text?”
“I tried both. You didn’t answer.” Damn you forgot you put your phone on dnd. You felt Auston’s hands begin to massage your shoulders and you let out a deep sigh at the relaxing feeling.
“We also need to decide, are we playing into this possible relationship between you and Andre Westbrook or shutting it down?”
Auston’s hands tensed on your shoulders. And you didn’t need to open your eyes to know that he was annoyed.
As of recently you have been linked to the star forward of the Lakers after attending a game with courtside seats. There was a small interaction between the two of you and every media outlet has ran with the idea that he’s your new boyfriend. To say Auston was pissed when the headline came up on his Instagram feed would be an understatement. He called you and demanded an explanation.
“Tell Rosie to Shut it down.” your publicist could make people believe pigs could fly if she really wanted to, so shutting down a rumor was nothing for her.
“Well Rosie is the one who actually wanted me to talk to you, apparently she did some research into him and he’s a big deal right now. He’s one of the best in the league. He’s on a winning team, and just signed a 2 million dollar contract.”
If only she knew you already had a world class athlete at your fingertips.
You would’ve kept your eyes closed, the conversation starting to bring on a headache had it not been for the noise Auston made getting down on his knees in front of you.
“Absolutely not.” You hissed out yanking on his arm to try and pull him up. Your effort was useless though, he was too big and strong in comparison to you. Auston ignored your pleas and began kissing up your leg, starting at your knee and working his way up your inner thigh.
“So what do you think?” Veronica’s hopeful voice traveled through the door.
Auston looked up at you as he forced your legs apart. He first placed a firm kiss to your heat gently sucking on your clit before he began to move his tongue.
“I-“ you cut yourself off to catch your breath and keep from moaning. “I don’t need him for publicity.”
“No, but it’ll keep people interested and if they think there’s even a slight chance Andre could show up to one of your shows they’ll be invested.”
“But all of my shows sold out.” One hand gripped onto Auston’s hair as the other held onto the wall.
“It’s the idea, honey. If you’re linked with him it opens up a door to a whole new audience for you.”
“Yes, but those middle aged men have teenage daughters and if they can connect a name with a face they’ll be more willing to pay for the concert tickets, or the merch, or the album, etc.” veronica explained.
The combination of Auston’s tongue and fingers mixed with the heat from the shower had you feeling lightheaded, “I just-I need to sit down.”
Auston helped you lower yourself to the ground and then he reached behind you to turn off the water. Your vision was blurry and it felt like the world was spinning.
“(Y/n), honey, are you okay?” Veronica attempted to turn the door handle.
You used Auston to steady yourself and pushed open the glass door desperately needing air, “Yeah I’m fine, I just need some time to think about everything.”
“Okay, 30 minutes and then we need to be in the car.”
“Veronica-.” You attempted to cut in.
“I’ll be waiting downstairs and tell your friend if he’s interested in the position that the maple leafs PR guy should give Rosie a call.”
“Damn, I didn’t expect a round of applause, but this silence is loud.” Auston commented following your reveal of your relationship to your friends.
You gathered everyone together at Auston’s apartment so you could do it all at once. But the silence that followed after Auston blurted it out felt like ages and you were beginning to panic.
You wanted your friends to be supportive, but they’ve also seen you at your worst with each other and you were scared they wouldn’t be able to look past that.
Everyone immediately began protesting with various statements like “we’re happy for you” and “that’s not what we meant.”
“We’re just surprised it took you guys this long to finally tell us.” Steph elbowed Mitch in the stomach making him double over.
“All of you already knew?!” You exclaimed looking around the room for confirmation, “Ryan! You promised.”
You turned to look at your best friends boyfriend who looked terrified while also trying to avoid eye contact with you.
“He didn’t tell everyone.” Your best friend defended, “just me.” You watched as she glanced at your other friends, “And I told (y/bff/n#2).”
You looked at your other best friend, “and I may have accidentally told Mason.” She bit down her lip also trying to avoid eye contact.
“And how’d you guys find out?” Auston nodded towards his teammates.
Will, morgan, and Mitch all shared a look before Mitch spoke up.
“That morning we came to your apartment to pick you up to go golfing and we knew you had a girl over-”
“And I found your clothes.” Will cheekily smiled before giving you a wink, “I also found your purse that you left on the couch.”
“And we were curious so we looked through it and saw your ID and passport.” Morgan finished sending you an apologetic smile.
Ryan seeing your boobs was bad, but this was even worse. You had interacted with all of them since that day and the fact that they knew what was going on made you want to cry. (Especially since they saw you lingerie)
“We said we were going to keep it between the three of us” Morgan continued to explain, “but I told Tessa.” He placed a hand on his wife’s thigh.
“And I told Steph.” Mitch rubbed the back of his neck.
“And I told kniesy and Reevo who told the rest of the team.” Willy admitted looking at the other two as a way to get the blame off himself.
Ryan laughed unapologetically, “Sorry, I just got excited for my boy.” You knew that was an honest answer and you wouldn’t be able to stay mad at him. You looked to Matthew next for an explanation.
“Im not good at keeping secrets.” He shrugged sheepishly and that did make you laugh despite yourself.
“So you’ve all known and no one said anything to us?” You were raking your brain thinking about all the times you and Auston were around your friends together, thinking you were getting away with something, but everyone knew.
“We wanted to see how long it would take for you guys to tell us, which I totally won the bet, all you boys better pay up!” Steph slapped Mitch’s arm this time cutting him off.
“But more importantly we wanted to wait until you both felt comfortable enough to tell us.”
“Thank you, but this news doesn’t leave this room. We’re not ready for the world to know yet.” Auston looked at you picking up your hand in his own, “We follow (y/n)’s lead.”
Auston made it clear from the jump that he would do whatever you wanted. If that meant keeping your relationship private he was fine with that.
“That’s enough intense conversations for one night. Lets just enjoy the rest of tonight.” You smiled up at him.
You thought doing one big reveal would be like ripping a band aid off. It would hurt, but it would be over quickly. You were very wrong. It just led to more questions all night.
“You have to give us all the details.” Tessa giggled munching down on a chip.
All the girls escaped to talk in the kitchen while the boys played video games in the living room.
“There’s not much to tell.” You took a sip of your wine. “It started when we were planning the drew house party. We got into a fight, he stopped by my apartment to apologize and then we ended up sleeping together.”
“It’s giving enemies to lovers, but in real life.” Steph smiled linking her arm with yours.
“The sex was probably so good.” You all turned to look at your best friend. “What? Everyone knows angry sex is the best sex.” She shrugged like the explanation was simple.
“And we’ve all seen the fights between you and Auston, there was a lot of tension there.”
“It’s even better now.” You smiled trying to hide your blush as all the girls cheered.
“Like before I didn’t care about what I said or did and now it’s the same thing, but it’s not because I don’t care but because I’m comfortable with him.” You tried your best to explain your feelings, “it’s intimate.”
“It sounds like you’re in love.” Tessa smiled giving your hand a squeeze across the kitchen island.
“No way.” You rejected looking around the group for someone to back you up, but they all just wore knowing smiles. “It’s too soon and I hated him literally like a week ago so that’s just not possible.” You rambled on fidgeting with your glass.
“You don’t have to convince us you aren’t feeling that way.” Aryne brought you out of your panicked thoughts, “It’s just an observation.”
You poured yourself another glass of wine starting to drink it quickly. You and Auston had been living in a fairy tale ever since you started dating, but revealing everything to your friends reminded you of just how intense it’s going to be when you reveal it to the public.
This wouldn’t be your first go around, but it would be Auston’s first time connected to someone as famous as you. It worried you that your fans wouldn’t like him or his wouldn’t like you. And all the questions your friends had would be what everyone else would ask but times a million.
“Sorry to interrupt ladies just getting more beers.” You recognized the one voice that could get you out of your own head.
Auston moved past the group and to the fridge where he grabbed another twelve pack. Before leaving the kitchen he came to stand behind you giving your hip a squeeze and placing a kiss on your head.
“I hope you aren’t giving my girl too much of a hard time.”
“Nope, just getting her to spill all the details about you.” One of your best friends teased.
“Well considering all the trash talking she’s done since we met, I’m owed a few compliments.”
You rolled your eyes, “In your dreams, Matthews. I will always be your number one hater.” You smiled giving him a wink.
Auston could tell from the moment he walked into the kitchen you were stressed. He knew telling your families and friends had been both an exciting and overwhelming thing for you. So many questions to answer and so much to talk about. He just wanted you to relax.
“I would expect nothing less, (y/l/n).” He joked before placing another kiss on your shoulder before leaving.
This was just the beginning.
