notting hill au for ezra and olyvar for the ask game 🙊
ezravar: notting hill au
olyvar yaxley runs a bookshop in notting hill and shares a flat with the slightly eccentric alphonse edevane. he recently broke up with his boyfriend philip and feels a bit stuck in his life
ezra greenaway is an author whose bestselling bookseries was adapted into a hollywood blockbuster a decade ago, making him a household name and a lot of money
they knew each other during their school days and didn't get along. or olyvar didn't get along with ezra, while ezra didn't have anything against olyvar
they haven't spoken in a long time but olyvar thinks ezra is overrated (actually he just had a crush on him in school and it pissed him off so much that he's being petty on principal)
one day, a chance encounter over spilled orange juice leads to a kiss that turns into a full-blown affair but the two have very different lifestyles and expectations laid upon them so drama can't be avoided
olyvar is a bitch and i love him lol. he's like the "i had a crush on a guy so i wrote him a note saying get out of my school" meme
i debated on if i should make ezra an actor instead but i think for the purposes of this story an author with like grr martin's or jk r*wling's fame level works just as well, i think
