op ur an absolute saint for writing for isaac & lee garcia 🙏 would you write a one-shot or headcanons for lee garcia? there is a severe lack of fics for him 😢 (probably bcuz he got very little screentime, but in the mlwtwb book he's actually rlly sweet)
dating lee garcia hcs!
a/n: for sure!! your wish is my demand and thank you so much for this request, i'm so so sorry for taking so long to do this, i've been procrastinating like hell but now I'm finally getting back to writing
summary: what dating lee garcia would be like!
so I feel like it defo depends on ur personality (I mean ofc it does)
but I can really imagine him with either a sunshine x grumpy dynamic
him being the grumpy one
or with a black cat gf
but me personally I feel like lee would go for a sunshine person bc he just needs that type of energy in his life
I think it's already really hard for him bc his dad is in the military and he doesn't really get to see him or talk to him very often
so he needs some type of positivity in his life and someone to love him and be affectionate with him
bc he also doesn't get loads of attention in the walter’s house
yk because they have so many kids already
he’s still a very family oriented guy so he’d also want someone like that
I think he also sometimes gets overlooked bc of Isaac and his popularity
(I think also Isaac gets more romantic attention from girls out of the two of them)
so he’d just want someone to see him for who he is and yeah, admire him a lil
I think at the beginning of y'all starting to date it’d be really hard for him to open up bc he can be closed off
(we’ve seen that already in the show that he tends to not talk so much and let's Isaac do a lot of the talking)
if he does say something he can be quite snappy and rude but he does apologize when he's gone too far
he’s scared about the fact that you like him as more than a friend bc he thinks you might not mean it and that you're just using him to get closer to Isaac
which is why he is a bit rude and cold to you at the beginning
he also was a dry texter before he warmed up to you
“wym”, “k”, “gn”, “nvm” and things like that, no emojis whatsoeva 😭
but as the two of you go on more dates I think he notices that you do actually like him for him and that you don't have some kind of ulterior motive for spending time with him
and that you simply do it bc you want to
he’d actually smile more, put an arm around your shoulder, make some jokes
(the sarcastic kind bc his humor is definitely sarcasm and / or dark humor)
I think when some time has passed, he’d definitely apologize for his behavior in the beginning and he’d also be sorta embarrassed bc he feels so bad for not seeing that you're a sweetheart right away
It’d take some more time until the two of you would become more “physical” with each other
and by that I mean like hand holding and eventually like kissing
I feel like lee doesn't just spend time with anyone, he carefully picks who he hangs out with and it takes a lot of time for him to fully trust someone
so I think he'd really only start being more physically affectionate if he's really sure about you
so it's a huge deal when he holds your hand after like a month and a half of dating
then you know he really means it with you two
I feel like your first kiss would follow shortly after it’d be so soft and careful bc lee is so nervous and he's been waiting so long to do this (he’s been waiting to gather the courage) 🥹
I feel like when you first started dating it would take a little longer for all the “big moments” to happen if you know what I mean
like lee would need a lot of time to warm up to this whole situation but then as you get closer to each other things would happen rlly fast bc you guys know that you're it for each other
“when you know, you know”
and you guys definitely know
first you’d hold hands, then you’d kiss, then you’d confess
and then next thing you know, you're together
I feel like lee would really properly ask you to be his girlfriend because he likes to be sure of things and not just assume something
I don't think he’d make that big of a deal out of it because you already kissed, confessed to each other etc. so you're practically already together and it's just common courtesy to ask
so it’d probably be a late afternoon, maybe like on a Friday
you had gone to the skater park with lee, just watching him do a few tricks (trying to impress you ofc)
then he’d randomly skate up to you to take a break and I feel like he'd just ask you out of nowhere
like take a sip out of his water bottle and be like “do you wanna be my gf”
and you're like “😃.. um yes!!!”
and then you're together :)
I feel like lee is the chillest bf ever but he can be a little jealous bc bro is afraid of losing you
like he completely trusts you but when someone comes up and talks to you
someone that he feels is way more attractive and just in general better than him for you (which is not true obvi, he’s the best for you)
he will be a little insecure and needs reassurance
he’d teach you some spanish
as well as skateboarding and some tricks you can do ;)
I feel like his love language is definitely acts of service
like he’ll definitely carry an extra water bottle with him wherever he goes bc he knows you get dehydrated easily and also always has a little snack for you
NO PET NAMES
I think lee hates pet names like whenever he hears another couple say them he's just like that meme
“brother ewww”
https://pin.it/2m17zXtm9so
he just always calls you your normal name or a nickname
but he literally refuses to say “baby” or “sweetheart” or something like that
like noo
he just cringes way to easily
he also isn't that big on pda I fear
he’s okay with the casual things for example an arm around your shoulder, hand holding but he would never ever make out in public
if you're in a quieter area he might give you a little kiss on the forehead but I think for him, the full-on kiss is reserved for when it's just the two of you or you’re with the people that you're close with
but at school, most people that don't know you're a couple would think you're just really close friends
you guys have the relationship that's private but not secret
trope with you guys: lee is grumpy to everyone except you
I feel like lee is a very thoughtful bf, always knows the right things to gift you, always knows what to say and he can sense whenever your mood changes and what to do about it
also he will join in on the vibes if you're having a little dance party in the kitchen or something like that
and yes if you're a swiftie or a hard core fan of a band he will learn all the lyrics to be able to loudly sing them with you at the concert 😍
bro is touch starved so cuddling is always a big yes for him
he will never ever deny you affection
just the sweetest guy ever
i hope you guys enjoyed it and tell me what you think!! also don't hesitate to send in a request ❤️❤️ love ya
Currently thinking about Lee with an airheaded gf and how his sarcastic remarks go right over her head, how he feels the need to always explain things in small simple steps
ANYWAYS can you write a small blurb about that? Or headcanons !🤭
yes, yes, yes! I love this! sorry for taking so long to do this request, I’ve been sick on and off for quite a long time now but now I’m finally feeling better and getting to all of my requests!
Lee is definitely the grumpy and sarcastic type so I can imagine him with a sunshine airheaded gf soo well omg. I feel like after he’d had a long day, the sarcastic remarks would just keep coming so naturally and you would not understand a single one of them.
For example when you're rambling about the lessons you’d had today and which teachers pissed you off and that life is so good now that school's over, he’d say something like:
“yeah, life is good. Mr. (teacher name) should get one”
and you would just stare at him confused like what do you mean 😭. like you seriously do not understand.
“what do you mean lee? Mr. (teacher name) isn't dead? he was just teaching us! why should he get a life if he is already alive?”
He just sighs, ruffling your hair and explains like
“I meant that (teacher name) should get a life like get some hobbies and not only work because he's obviously a workaholic etc. etc.”
and you're like ohhhh
Also Lee would probably have to help you with something simple like using the microwave 🤷. Like you said he’d explain it step for step (he’s also very patient with you bc he's a good bf) and he also writes down instructions for when he's not there so you won't blow up the whole kitchen.
He doesn't trust you with things that are actually easy like cooking spaghetti or washing laundry. He’s like “lemme explain it first before you accidentally kill yourself or something bbg” He probably sends you a lot of sarcastic memes and you always respond with like “wym”, “🤨🤨🤨”, “I don't get it”
and he's like "babeee😭" and then several voice messages incoming of him explaining bc he needs you to understandd
also him consoling you bc you feel stupid sometimes for needing a lil more help with things and he reassures you that it's fine and that he loves helping you always <3
