Good Luck Glasses
pairing: Lewis Pullman x Reader
warnings: use of Y/N
I walked a few steps behind Lewis. It was still strange to be out in public with him. Not just because I was basically a nobody, but because I wasn't the kind of girl he'd dated in the past. I wasn't a model. I was just... me.
He must have realized I wasn't beside him anymore, because he stopped and turned back toward me. His ball cap was pulled low, and he was wearing a pair of dark aviators. The corner of his mouth tipping upward. He was handsome. Beautiful even. When he smiled, he was practically angelic.
"Are you stalling, Y/N?" he asked, reaching out his hand toward me. "You look like you're going to the gallows."
I took his hand, lacing our fingers together and squeezing. His skin was warm against mine. The scent of him--light cologne and soap--settled in my lungs and dragging my heart into a calm rhythm. I leaned toward him and rested my forehead against his chest with a nervous smile.
My chest relaxed just a little. "It's Danny," I admitted softly, my voice shaking a little bit. "He's your best friend. His approval matters. Like... a lot."
Danny Ramirez was Lewis's best friend. His roommate. Probably the one person whose opinion meant the most beyond his mom and dad. And now we were walking toward a restaurant to have dinner with him. It felt like the world was about to change.
Lewis grinned and pulled off his aviators. He grinned even more as he wrapped his free arm around my shoulders. "He's gonna love you, little bit," he said, lips brushing against my temple. "And if he doesn't... I'll just have to set him straight about it."
I let out a slow breath as my anxiety released a little more. I leaned back to look up at him. "You're amazing, Lew. D'you know that?"
"Convinced you to date me, didn't I?" he teased. Then he slid his sunglasses onto me with a wink. But then his eyes softened just a little. "You make me want to be amazing, Y/N. Now... rock those aviators and keep being you. Danny will love you."
I looked up at him through the tinted lenses of his favorite sunglasses. The ones that made him look a little roguish and insanely handsome. The ones that make my heart skip a double beat when he pulled them down his nose and winked at me. They were his good luck glasses.
He was my good luck everything.
With one last breath, I nodded and squeezed his hand. Then took a step forward, leading the way to the restaurant where Danny Ramirez waited. Maybe Lewis was right--honestly, he probably was. I smiled.
"Let's do this."
