hc for all the boys seeing u on a night out and thinking ur fit / making a move etc etc 😁😁😁
🌸 Jaw hits the floor when you walk in, he's in the middle of talking to his mate about something and he fully just stops talking mid sentence.
🌸 His mate turns around to see what hes staring at and laughs at him. "Fuckin hell mate I thought it was something serious, not just a bloody girl!"
🌸 "to be fair mate she's hardly just a girl!"
🌸 He's actually really nervous and his mates have to bully him into going and talking to you. In the end one of them proper embarasses him and goes up to you like "here my mate over there really fancies you but he's too chicken to talk to you..."
🌸 You kind of can't tell if it's a joke. Your friends have to bully you into going up to him.
🌸 In the end you have this awkward meeting where you both wind up stood next to one another at the bar and you're both like, knowing you need to say something and then just not saying something.
🌸 "By the way am sorry about my mates..."
"Earlier... Am sorry about my mates like they were just messing around they think they're dead funny but..."
"So you don't proper fancy me?" you smirk, you're kind of disappointed but may as well try and wind him up.
"Well no a didn't say that uh..." he starts losing his cool and stuttering a bit, getting annoyed at himself.
"You could buy me a drink if you like? As an apology for your mates," you tease him. Its the boldest thing you've ever done, you're making yourself blush.
🌸 He buys you a drink and that's it, neither of you return to your mates for the rest of the evening. Van walks you home after and crashes at your house. You definitely sleep together and wake up kind of awkwardly but it's cute in the end.
🌸 Thought he'd get better at talking to girls the older he got but actually it's kind of getting harder? Especially when they're a bit younger than him and they're out with his mates!
🌸 You're on a night out with Sam and his pals, the band ect, you're the baby of the group and they're all teasing you.
🌸 When Bondy recognises his mates he immediately goes over to join them and that's when he sees you. At first he thinks maybe you're Sam's girlfriend because he's got you over his shoulder and he's playing around with you.
🌸 So your meetcute is Sam dumping you back down on the floor, you having to lean into him because you've lost your balance, then as you're trying to sort yourself out, fix your clothes/hair/makeup you're laughing and a bit breathless and you look up and see Johnny looking at you with curiosity and quiet amusement.
🌸 You're drunk so you actually giggle when you see him, a knee jerk reaction to finding him attractive but which he thinks is you actually thinking he's kinda funny looking or something.
🌸 "oh hi, sorry..." you don't know why you're apologising, he doesn't know why you're apologising. He just cracks a crooked kind of awkward smile. "Hello," "I'm y/n... Sam's friend," he kind of can't stand himself for being so relieved that you're just Sam's friend.
🌸 Decides the inky way he will survive the night is if he drinks doubles. And yeah in a way it works but also, in a way it doesn't. He certainly gets more talkative.
🌸 You sitting with him outside smoking, your other pals have wandered back inside, Johnny was talking proper daft political shite and still is, you haven't noticed you're the only two outside. You get through a whole pack of cigs together before you realise you're the only ones left.
🌸 You're cold and he tries to give you his jacket but you insist he needs it. So instead he shrugs out of the sleeves and drapes it around both your shoulders so that you're sitting underneath it besides him.
🌸 Lots of awkward hand brushes. Him lighting your cig with the end of his. Eye. Contact.
🌸 I'm sorry I'm struggling to picture any of these men as being the kinds of men who can hit on girls.
🌸 Him shyly eyeing you up from across the room. Blushing whenever he thinks you're looking over. You doing exactly the same to him.
🌸 In the end you do two shots for bravery and go up to him! This is the least like you thing you've ever done and when you get to his table you immediately regret your actions.
🌸 Forgetting how to speak, he's looking up at you, his mates are looking at you too!
🌸 Van frowning like "you alright love? You lost?"
🌸 You blushing furiously, your voice is strained when you speak. "No..." you're looking at Benji so embarrassed you want the floor to swallow you whole.
🌸 And then your mind runs away with you and you appear to be speaking without your own permission. "Actually yeah, I was wondering um would you like my phone number?" you're looking directly at Benji but he's so stunned he looks around as if to double check it's him you're talking to.
🌸 "Who me?" "Yeah, you... Yeah? Would you?"
🌸 "Bloody hell Blakes put the poor lass out her misery like you've been eyeing her up all night!"
🌸 Long story short you do give him your number... By giving your number to Van because he actually has to take over here because Benjis too shocked and awkward.
🌸 I honestly think he's maybe the only one you're getting anywhere with but it's not because he's a casanova.
🌸 When he sees you you're dancing with another man, you look close but you're not, you only met him that night, you're just dancing cause he asked to dance.
🌸 Bob thinks this guys your boyfriend but in actual fact he isn't. Youve just broken up with your boyfriend and you're on a girls night out to heal your broken heart. Your friends have all been pressuring you to dance with a guy or let someone buy you a drink but youre not feeling it at all.
🌸 So Bob's glancing at you every now and then and he starts to realise you're not actually having a good time. He wants to swoop in and rescue you so bad but he's too nervous.
🌸 His chance comes when you finally pull away from the guy youve been dancing with. You head to the bar, leaning on it with your elbows. You're not even there to order a drink you're just doing it to get a moments peace.
🌸 "Hi," you hear his voice kinda quiet kinda warm beside you as he leans against the bar too. You're about to tell him you're not in the mood but when you turn and look at him you're taken back by how gorgeous he is, but also how kind he looks, he's looking at you with this really comforting softness and you immediately cave. Letting out this subconscious sigh of relief.
🌸 "Sorry," you smile apologetically, "not really having a good night," "Nah I thought you might not be actually," "my friends say I can't leave until I've found someone to take home,"
🌸 "Well I'd quite like to go home too so," "I don't want to take anyone home I'm not in..." "I didn't say you had to take me home," him chuckling at you, this sweet little smile, "just let em think you are," you starting to understand, smiling and then giggling.
🌸 You end up walking back to yours with him, talking to him about all sorts, your ex, your friends, his life and your life in general.
🌸 "you wanna come in for a cuppa? Always have a cuppa at the end of a night," "promise you wont try and sleep with me?" hes teasing you and you laugh and you feel so comfortable with him.
🌸 Drinking tea, you put the TV on and it's something like the snooker, something boring but you're watching it and talking all night. You end up making another brew and not sleeping till 4am because you just didn't want to miss any time with him.
🌸 You eventually go to sleep and he sleeps on the sofa. The next morning you both have tea and talk a little more. You get his number.
🌸 Seeing him two weeks later down the pub, you pull the same trick so you can both leave early again.
🌸 You were actually at the same school but in different years and he's always secretly had a crush on you
🌸 So this isn't the first time he's seen you but it is the first time he's seen you for awhile because youve been away at uni. You're back home for Christmas, down the pub with your family.
🌸 He's working behind the bar. Your mum recognises him and points him out to you. You're embarrassed because her words exactly are "Isn't that that Sam you used to have a big crush on in school!" and your mum isn't a quiet talker
🌸 Sam does actually hear her but pretends he hasn't. Not because he doesn't want to embarrass you but because he himself is now blushing so hard.
🌸 Spends half his shift wondering if you still fancy him, or if you ever even actually fancied him at all.
🌸 Then you come up to order cause its your round and he's the only one behind the bar so he has to serve you. And suddenly he's proper anxious. He tries to be smiley and friendly and not awkward and to be fair you don't think he's anything but smiley and friendly. Besides you're too busy feeling awkward yourself because he's actually gotten fitter since school and you're not sure how to even look him in the eye.
🌸 "Heard you're a very sophisticated and intelligent young woman now ey y/n? What're yas doing here like?"
🌸 You just blushing and mumbling "well I don't know about that," biting back a smile and not knowing what to say to him.
🌸 Him pouring your drinks and away you go back to your table wishing you'd said more.
🌸 You don't speak to him much more that night but your mum makes plenty of embarrassing and loud comments "I can see why you had a crush on him he's a lovely looking young man isn't he!" "you know he keeps looking at you y/n you should go back over and say hello, talk to him properly this time!"
🌸 You don't but when you get home you get a Facebook message from him "If youre needing a tour of the area, refamiliarise yourself with the riff raff I'm free tomorrow night?" "Hmm I guess it has been a little while, and you'd probably make a good tour guide,"
