Hello! Super impressed with how much you’re able to write so often and I hope you continue having fun doing it/ don’t get burnt out! Would it be possible to request a scenario about a reader who’s dating isagi (and has for awhile since before blue lock) but is from an affluent family who wants them to get engaged for family political reasons. They later decide to temporarily get engaged to reo to help cover up both of their relationships (reader and isagi and reo and nagi) and kind of become besties through it. For a one shot/ scenario maybe have them judging other people at a fancy dinner (or if head canons on the general idea would also be great - whatever is easier) thank you!!
“𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬”
a/n: hi and thank you so much!!!
rich reader x longtime boyfriend isagi x fake fiancée reo that has a secret relationship with nagi? this request was very specific lol, so i’m sorry if i got anything wrong! (i did make all 4 four of them besties from the start to make the writing a little easier, they become even better best friends throughout the engagement drama)
for later context, isagi is invited to the dinner party because he is now a pro soccer player after his achievements in blue lock. i also threw in some gay nagireo in there cuz why not they’re gay anyways
you’ve been with isagi since before blue lock, since his hair was messier, his dreams quieter, and your family's expectations a little easier to ignore. back when being together meant holding hands behind the school and sneaking into your driver’s car after games. he’s always made you feel like a person, not a pawn. which is exactly why you can’t let your family know about him.
not when they’re talking about engagements like they’re business mergers.
your father puts down his wine glass at a family dinner and says, “we’ve had interest from the mikage family, you know. a strategic partnership could benefit both parties.”
you blink. “you mean like… i get stock options? or i get married?”
your mother’s smile is tight. “don’t be crass, sweetheart. you’d get both.”
and just like that, you're being politically packaged like a luxury handbag.
you don’t even panic. not really. you just call reo the next day and say, “wanna fake an engagement to avoid being sold off like cattle?”
he hums. “sure. nagi thinks it’s funny.”
you smile. “isagi said it’s either this or he beats up your dad. so i guess we’re going with this.”
thus begins the most fabulous scam of your life.
it’s about a month into the fake engagement when the dinner party happens, one of those rich people breeding grounds where everyone wears cream-colored suits and says things like “let’s circle back” when they mean “go away.”
you’re seated next to reo, who looks like he just walked off a magazine cover, because of course he does. your parents are three seats away. nagi is conveniently not invited. and isagi is somewhere across the room, seated like a polite accessory at the farthest table, trying not to combust.
“my real boyfriend is glaring at you,” you whisper to reo.
reo raises a glass. “i know. isagi looks like he’s thinking about setting fire to this floral centerpiece.”
you both clink glasses in solidarity.
across from you, some heiress with a platinum trust fund is explaining how she’s “completely self-made” because she once opened a vegan bakery in london.
“girl,” you mutter. “you own six apartment buildings.”
reo leans in. “her dad had to pay two million in damages after she accidentally poisoned someone with mushroom powder she found on pinterest.”
you bite your lip, trying not to laugh. “damn. you really do your research.”
“i'm thorough,” he says smugly, and starts texting nagi under the table like a giddy middle schooler. you sneak a glance at isagi, who’s pretending to stir his soup while definitely texting you with his hand under the tablecloth.
isagi [8:41pm]: i miss u
you [8:42pm]: you’re 20 feet away
isagi [8:42pm]: i’m dying. reo’s dad just said i look like someone who “played sports at the public school”
you [8:43pm]: okay he’s getting coal for christmas
reo tilts his phone so you can see nagi’s response.
nagi [8:43pm]: make them eat the centerpiece. they won’t notice
you almost choke on your water.
the woman next to you tries to engage you in a conversation about equestrian bloodlines, and you politely nod while messaging isagi under the table like you’re in some sort of underground operation. reo’s playing his part like a total pro – he throws you looks like “i’m so in love” and sighs dramatically any time you talk, which only makes you both look obnoxiously engaged and secretly evil. it’s perfect.
“what do you think of this one?” reo whispers when the next guest starts bragging about launching a NFT for gourmet olives.
“looks like a young benedict cumberbatch if he lost a fight with a hedge fund,” you say. “he just said the word ‘synergy’ unironically.”
“disqualified,” reo mutters.
you clink glasses again. you’re starting to like this way too much.
but later, you escape to the garden to breathe, because all this secret-love-fake-fiancée-corporate-dinner-lunacy is exhausting. reo follows you out with two glasses of champagne and a subtle wink.
“nagi’s bored,” he says. “he tried to facetime me under the table.”
“isagi sent me a meme and called it ‘the real appetizer.’” you sigh. “do you ever feel like we’re the only sane people in this capitalist hellscape?”
reo raises a brow. “you’re fake engaged to me. you think i’m sane?”
you clink your glass against his anyway. “you’re the only one who gets it.”
for a second, the two of you just stand there in silence, watching the glowing windows from the outside like kids pressed to a candy store.
“thank you,” you say, suddenly, seriously. “for helping me.”
reo waves it off. “please. i get a fake fiancée and tax write-offs. nagi’s obsessed with the drama.”
you smile. “he should’ve been an actor.”
“he is acting. like he doesn’t love me.”
you glance at him. “do you ever wish you could just… tell everyone?”
“all the time,” he says. “but for now, we have each other. and excellent wardrobe coordination.”
you bump his shoulder with yours. “ride or die.”
he grins. “now tell your boyfriend to stop sulking and come steal you away.”
“only if nagi lets you come over for game night.”
“deal.”
back inside, you walk past your mother, who whispers, “try not to look too smug. people are already talking about how perfect you and reo look together.”
you give her a dazzling smile. “just wait till the wedding photos,” you say sweetly. “they’ll be iconic.”
isagi meets you by the door with that look on his face, the one that says i’d break ten social contracts to hold your hand right now. you brush fingers briefly as you pass.
and later, when you sneak into isagi’s apartment with leftover cake in your bag and tell him all about the NFT olives and poisoned mushroom heiress, he kisses you like you’re the only thing in the world that matters. which, really, you are.
reo texts you at 1 AM.
reo [1:01am]: nagi just said he wants to “elope but in a cool way.” do you think that means vegas or sword fight?
The truth will set you free.
That's a lie. The truth is jagged shards of glass you breathe in, shards that shred you until you think you'll never recover.

Sign your love away...
Enfield
I never wanted an arranged marriage but to continue the spoiled lifestyle I live and support my three children, I sign on the dotted line with a plan to get what I want and ditch the wife. My parents have other plans and the woman I'm contracted to turns out to be a man. I'm livid.

I've been looking forward to this day for years. After watching six older brothers get their happy endings, all I want is mine. But the man who walks through my door is angry, mean, and not interested. My happy ending is heartbreak instead.

About the Author:
Crea lives in upstate New York with her dog and husband. She has been writing since grade school, when her second grade teacher had her class keep writing journals. She has a habit of creating secondary, and often time tertiary, characters that take over her stories. All of her RH relationships end up being heavily polyamorous - meaning it's not just all the men for one woman. There's also some M/M action going on. When she can't fall asleep at night, she thinks up new scenes for her characters to act out. This, of course, is how most of her meant-to-be-thrown-away characters tend to end up front and center - and utterly swoon-worthy! Don't ask her how many book boyfriends she has...
When not writing, Crea is an avid reader. Her TBR pile is several hundred books high (don't even look at her kindle wish list or the unread books on her tablet). Sometimes, she enjoys crafting; sometimes, exploring nature; sometimes, traveling. Mostly, she enjoys putting her characters on paper and breathing life into them. Oh, and sleeping. Crea loves to sleep!
