in which ✩
ryan is the kind of boyfriend who makes ordinary moments feel like home. laughter tucked into silence, the kind of warmth that lingers even when he’s not there.
✩ — boyfriend!ryan who sets your alarm five minutes later than his so he can wake you up gently. he presses a kiss to your forehead, whispers “good morning, sleepyhead,” and won’t let you get up until you smile at him.
✩ — boyfriend!ryan who always walks on the side of the street closest to traffic without saying anything. if you try to switch, he’ll tug you right back with a cssual “nice try.”
✩ — boyfriend!ryan who never remembers to take his own jacket but always remembers to bring yours. when you call him out, he just shrugs like, “i don’t get cold.” (he absolutely does.)
✩ — boyfriend!ryan who sends you blurry photos of his day with captions like “thinking of you here” or “this reminded me of you.” half of them are dumb, but you save every single one anyway.
✩ — boyfriend!ryan who leans his head against yours in the grocery store checkout line like you’re the only thinh grounding him. he doesn’t care if anyone stares he’s just tired and you’re his safe place.
✩ — boyfriend!ryan who absentmindedly kisses your knuckles when you’re holding hands. sometimes he doesn’t even notice he’s doing it.
✩ — boyfriend!ryan who insists on carrying all the heavy bags even though he’s clearly struggling. “nope. don’t touch these. i’m your designated pack mule.”
✩ — boyfriend!ryan who gets quiet when he’s proud of you, like words aren’t enough. he’ll just look at you with this soft, almost shy smile, and say something small like “you killed it,” but you can tell he means way more.
✩ — boyfriend!ryan who rests his hand on the small of your back every time you’re in a crowd. it’s protective, grounding, and he doesn’t even realize how natural it is for him to do.
✩ — boyfriend!ryan who buys random little things just because “it looked like you.” stickers, keychains, mugs—your shelves are full of them and he still insists it’s never enough.
✩ — boyfriend!ryan who stays up with you when you can’t sleep, even if he’s exhausted. he’ll trace circles on your arm and murmur nonsense until you drift off, then finally let himself pass out right after.
✩ — boyfriend!ryan who makes up ridiculous inside jokes that only the two of you understand. if anyone else overhears, they’re completely lost while the two of you are in tears laughing.
✩ — boyfriend!ryan who presses tiny kisses to the tip of your nose when you’re pouting. “there. fixed it,” he’ll say, grinning like he just performed actual magic.
✩ — boyfriend!ryan who sometimes just stares at you like he’s trying to memorize every detail. if you catch him, he’ll look away and mumble something like, “you had something on your face,” even though you didn’t.
✩ — boyfriend!ryan who saves every note you write him, even the silly ones. he keeps them folded in his wallet or tucked in drawers, like little secret treasures he can reread when he misses you.
✩ — boyfriend!ryan who says “text me when you get home” and actually waits up to see your message, no matter how late it is.
✩ — boyfriend!ryan who holds you like you’re breakable, but kisses you like you’re the only thing that’s ever made sense.
