You’d been best friends with Alex Nylander for as long as you could remember, and in middle school, you swore to him that you wouldn’t fall in love with his brother, William. Other girls had a tendency to do that, get close to Alex so that he could get them closer to Willy. They would become friends with him, gain his trust, some even dated Alex, just so they might have a shot with William, not that he ever went for any of them.
For the first few years, it was an easy promise to keep. He was just Alex’s older brother, and to him, you were just Alex’s best friend. He was easy to look over, especially when the rest of the family was so amazing. However, your sophomore year of high school, that all changed.
Alex had asked you to the homecoming; it only made sense to ask his best friend. Your family went over to his house, and his sisters helped you get ready. You had been so excited that you basically ran down the stairs to meet him. You were thinking everyone was waiting in the living room, but as you neared the bottom of the steps, you saw it was empty. You turned your head as you walked to see if they might’ve been in the kitchen instead, and that’s when you ran into something. If it hadn’t been for the hand on your waist, you would’ve assumed it was a wall, but no, right there in front of you was Willy. The two of you froze for a moment before he offered up a soft smile as he stepped back.
“Wow…” He sounded breathless, like he was the one who ran into you. “You, uh, you look beautiful. Alex is one lucky guy.”
“Oh- Well, um, you know, we aren’t, like, together or anything-”
“I know. Still lucky.” He hits you with that smile again and then wanders into the kitchen. You know then that you’re already too far gone. He’d won you over just like that. Suddenly, you saw what all of those other girls saw, and boy, was Alex gonna kill you. You gather your thoughts for a moment before moving toward the kitchen.
When you walk in, the room fills with gasps. Everyone stands to hug you and tell you how beautiful you look, but you can’t help but focus on William’s stare from where he’s leaning against the counter.
It had only gone downhill from there. You got a bit of a break when Willy got drafted, but when you landed your dream job in Toronto, there was no saving you. Alex, of course, told William, and he would stop at nothing to help you move in and get comfortable. You two had spent so much time together those first few weeks that Alex had begun to joke that you two might as well be dating. It was nearly impossible to hide the blush on your cheeks then. You were just thankful that he’d said that over text message because if he said it to your face, there’s no way you’d be able to hide your reaction from him.
It was just too easy to fall deeper into whatever spell he had put on you sophomore year. Then, he was unattainable because he’s a couple of years older than you. It was easier to push your feelings down because it seemed like it would never happen. Now, though, he was within reach. You were 24, and he was 26. The age difference was nothing now. You two were spending loads of time together, and as much as it made your feelings grow deeper, you hated it.
You were miserable, truly. The one thing that you had sworn to your best friend, other than staying friends forever, was dissolving like salt in water. You couldn’t even really do anything about it, so you went to your last resort. You’d been ignoring Willy for the past week or so. You were brushing off every plan he made. You always had an excuse at the ready. You could almost feel it working, feel the emotions going away, but then Willy showed up at your doorstep, unannounced.
“What, um, what are you doing here?” You subconsciously pull the door closer to you, not wanting to give him an opportunity to step inside.
“What am I doing here? I don’t know, Y/N, why are you ignoring me?” He raises his voice a little, and you immediately feel bad. You honestly didn’t think it would bother him this much.
“I-I’m not ignoring you.” You stutter, a little nervous now that he’s no more than a foot away from you. He glances down either side of the hallway before sighing as his eyes meet yours again.
“Will you just let me in? This isn’t a conversation that should happen in the hallway of an apartment building.” You hesitate but let him in, stepping aside to give him room. He sends you a tight smile as he passes, and it makes your heart clench. You follow him to your living room, both of you taking a seat on opposite ends of your sofa. “Okay, just be honest with me. Did I do something to upset you? Did I say something? How do I fix it?”
“No, Willy. It’s just-” You cut yourself off before you say too much.
“It’s just what? You can tell me. Please, I just wanna fix this.”
“It’s just that I hate the way you make me feel.” You’re almost whispering, afraid that if you say the words too loudly, it’ll make this real.
“What- I don’t mean to make you feel bad. That’s the last thing I want, trust me.” He scoots closer, obviously worried that he’s done something incredibly wrong.
“No. No. You don’t make me feel bad. That’s the problem. You make me feel better, lighter. I’m- I’m not supposed to feel that, not for you.”
“What?”
“I’m pretty sure I’m in love with you, and I absolutely hate both of us for it.”
“You- What? I-”
“No, look, I promised Alex that I would never go after you, not like everyone else had, but you just- you make it so easy! You’re gorgeous! And- and you’re so nice to everyone, especially me! I can’t. I can’t do it, Willy. I swore to him that I wouldn’t.”
“I don’t care.”
“What?” You weren’t sure what to expect from him should you ever tell him about your feelings, but it certainly wasn’t that.
“I don’t care about Alex. You think I’ve been spending all this time with you just to be nice? No. I don’t work that way. I think I’m in love with you, too, and I honestly couldn’t care less about what my brother has to say about it. We can deal with it later. Just please give me a chance to be with you. Just one.”
“Willy, I don’t know-”
“I do. We could be amazing, and I know that once he sees how happy we are together, he won’t be able to be mad. And obviously, you weren’t using him to get to me. You’re trying to talk me out of loving you.” His hands are on your cheeks now, and you don’t ever want them to leave. “Just one chance. Please?”
“Okay. One chance. This better work out, Nylander.”

You knew when you met Timo that it would be nearly impossible to stop other women from looking at him. He was beautiful, and he was built like a sculpture, like what some artist envisioned the perfect man to look like. You couldn’t even blame them for it. You could barely stop yourself from looking.
What brought you peace, though, was the trust you had in Timo. He wouldn’t run off to another woman. He didn’t need to. You’re right there waiting for him, always. You know he’d never walk out on you, never let you think that another woman would be better than you. You’re all he needs, all he’d ever need.
The man basically walks around with his head down. He doesn’t need to look anywhere, at anyone. He’s walking toward you. He’s always walking toward you. You’re the only map he’d ever need, the only landmark he’d ever need to find.
You’d never felt so secure in a relationship, so loved, so cherished. Timo made you feel important, like you mattered to him, because you do. You matter more to him than anything else, and he never misses an opportunity to be sure you’re aware of that.
That’s what he’s doing right now, actually. The Devils had just won a big game, clinching a place in the playoffs. Timo was making his way to you, per usual, like someone had laid out a red carpet from him to you, like a walkway had been paved specifically for this. His eyes were locked with yours, and you knew you’d never have to worry about them straying. When he gets close enough, he wraps his hands around your waist, pulling you close enough that you can feel his breath against your lips.
“Hello, sünneli. You enjoy the game?”
“Always, T.” That’s all he needs to hear. The second the words are out of your mouth, his lips are on yours, planting a soft, sweet kiss. It’s proof to him, proof that he’s yours, completely. He doesn’t need anyone else, doesn’t want anyone else, not when his whole world is standing right in front of him.
This series will be based on Taylor Swift's songs, using her lyrics as prompts.
The goal is to have at least one fic for every one of her songs!
The catch? I’m only accepting one to two lines per request.
What might a request look like?
For example, if you wanted me to write something based on part of You Belong With Me, you would look through the lyrics of the song, and pick out one to two lines that stick out to you!
It would look something like this:
Hi! Can you write something for (insert player name) with “And you’ve got a smile that can light up this whole town, I haven’t seen it in a while since she brought you down” from You Belong With Me?
It should be pretty short! Not an entire verse or chorus!
Why do I only want a couple of lines instead of a verse or the whole song?
For one thing, I think it’ll be more of a challenge for me! I could write something that doesn’t correspond with the song if I’m only using a line or two.
For another, it gives me more room to be creative! As said before, I can only do so much if the whole song, or a big chunk of it, is used.
Lastly, I want to write as many of these fics as possible! If we use smaller portions of the song, I can do multiple requests for one song instead of being limited to one or two!
Would I accept a request for longer parts of the song?
In short, probably not. Like I said, I want to do this as much as possible, and it’s not fair to others if someone were to send in an entire song, and I couldn’t do anything else from that song.
That's not to say I would completely ignore it!!
I would probably just ask the requester to narrow down the lyrics a little bit or ask if I could pick something from the lines they've given me.
Overall, this is something I’m really excited to do!! I already draw so much inspiration from Taylor’s songs, so I’m excited to see what I can do with just bits and pieces of them.
I hope you all are just as excited for this as I am! I want you all to participate, and hopefully, give me some fun, challenging stuff to write!
Requests for this series are now open!! So start sending in!!
ONE LAST REMINDER:
I do NOT write full-on smut, although I am willing to write the leadup.
Don’t feel like you can’t request some of Taylor’s spicier lyrics!!
