Poly!Shaymien x Vlogger!Reader Headcanons
A/N: I had been kicking around this idea for months. I finally decided to sit down and write these out. Also quick warning: a chunk of this is definitely angsty, so yeah. Some fluff, but I am probably going to do a part two because I had way too many ideas floating through my head and I really want to expand on this completely. But yeah, enjoy!
Pairing: Poly!Shaymien x Vlogger!Reader
You’d only been vlogging for a little over two years when you were invited to go attend VidCon.
To be honest, it was like super exciting to be surrounded by so many creators.
You had decided to take your camera out to start vlogging when someone bumped into you.
This caused your camera to slip out of your hand.
Luckily you caught it by the strap and saved it from smashing onto the ground.
And the bump kind of hurt.
When you turn to face the person who bumped into you, you realize that two guys stood in front of you.
Both wearing a look of shock on their faces.
As you took in their appearances, you began to realize why the bump hurt.
You were smaller than they were.
One looked to be almost six feet tall and the other, while shorter, looked super built.
You were about to start apologizing to them.
When they immediately apologize to you.
“We are so sorry. We should’ve been watching where we were going,” said the shorter one. “I’m Shayne.”
“I’m Damien. Are you okay?”
Once you’d confirmed that you were alright, they offered to buy you a coffee.
An offer you accept.
And then the rest is pretty much history.
You three become really good friends.
But both Damien and Shayne feel themselves start to slowly fall in love with you.
And they know how the other feels about you.
And they feel guilty for their feelings.
And you were oblivious.
So one day, while you are asleep on your couch, you hear a knock on your door, as well as voices bickering quietly.
When you open the door, they ask if they can come in.
Once your front door is shut, they both begin to explain the way they feel about you.
It honestly floored you.
Because you had begun to realize you had developed feelings for both of them like two months after meeting them.
This led to all three of you talking and trying to figure out what to do.
Surprisingly, it was Shayne that suggested that you all should be in a polyamorous relationship.
You all agree to at least try.
You guys kind of take it day-by-day.
And a day turned into a week.
A week turned into a month.
And all of a sudden you guys are celebrating being together for six months.
Fights were rare, but when they happened, it was not pleasant.
A lot of the time it sounded like incoherent shouting to anyone passing by.
You’d managed to avoid one particular topic for about six months, but at some point, you all had to face the music.
Damien wanted to go public, but both you and Shayne were extremely cautious as to how that would affect your relationship..
A relationship you were still trying to figure out.
And that basically ended in you all coming to an agreement that you’d keep everything regarding your relationship private until you all felt comfortable enough.
This made your vlogs just a little bit more difficult to film.
You had to careful when and where you film.
But you guys spent a lot of time together.
And you guys filmed together whenever possible.
But you had to limit their appearances in your vlogs once fans started to notice your guys’ chemistry.
This would have led to a shipping war, had it not been for a wrong click on a phone screen.
Damien and you were at Shayne’s place when you guys passed out on the couch while cuddling.
Shayne had left to go film and a bit on the later side.
When he walked it, he smiled softly.
He decided to take a picture to send to Courtney, who’d been bugging him throughout the entire shoot about how disgustingly cute you guys were, just to mess with her.
The picture was disgustingly cute, especially the words that read “My loves.”
Shayne placed his phone on the coffee table so he could wake you guys up.
You guys could move to the bed and so you could be less uncomfortable.
And you guys fall back asleep almost immediately.
You guys are rudely awoken to your phone going off constantly.
Shayne had left his phone out all night and so had Damien, so only your phone was constantly chiming.
You elect to ignore it, but then realize that it might be an emergency.
You begin scrolling through your notifications, growing more and more anxious the more you read.
A lot of the responses were positive, but not all of it was.
You shut your phone off after a couple of nasty tweets and messages aimed specifically at you.
Shayne was lucky you were standing between him and Damien.
Because to say Damien was pissed off would be putting it lightly.
But the war of words had already begun, with Damien delivering most of the blows.
“‘Hey, let’s keep the relationship private just until we figure this thing out a bit more or until I get the chance to out us for no fucking reason’.”
Unfortunately, that was the tamest of the bunch.
Eventually it calmed down to less intense yelling.
“What did you think would happen? We agreed to wait until we were ALL ready for a reason.”
This is when both of them took one look at you and realized that you were crying.
Their hardened faces immediately became soft at the sight, and they pulled you into an embrace.
Once you’d all cooled off enough, you all decided to film an explanation video for your channel in order to get ahead of this.
You sat down and filmed it with no idea what to say; you were flying by the seat of your pants.
You don’t edit the video.
There’s no special thumbnail.
It’s just the three of you sitting on Shayne’s couch.
When you it is finally up, everyone goes nuts.
You guys get enormous amounts of support from friends and fans alike.
You and Damien never really let Shayne live that down completely.
“Hey, you remember the time you outed our relationship and almost caused us to break up? Yeah, give me the last slice of pizza.”
But I digress.
You guys become a power couple.
They already appeared in your vlogs constantly.
But once you guys went public? You brought them in for any bit you could get them to agree to.
And they drag you into Smosh shoots just as often.
Since I’ve veered off course just a smidge, I’m just gonna mention the dynamic.
Damien is the chaos engine in your relationship.
You and Shayne are definitely up there in your chaotic levels, with Shayne surpassing you easily.
Which leaves you to be the voice of reason most of the time.
You guys are just chaotic balls of energy that feed off of each others’ energy.
But sometimes you guys need some time away from each other, which is why you still live apart from each other.
But you guys are also, as Courtney dubs you, “adorably disgusting.”
You guys were already super affectionate towards each other when you were friends.
Now that you guys are together? Pfft.
You guys make sure to keep PDA to a minimum when in public.
Holding hands is a necessity.
Shayne’s arm around you while you’re holding Damien’s hand.
Or literally any combination of that.
Movie nights that mainly consist of you guys cuddling.
And depending on the genre (HORROR), you’ll stay like that until the morning comes.
Honestly, it’s a relationship filled with ups and downs, but you always find a way to make it through.
