FaZe Blaze x Reader - Work Texts
Work seemed as though it was dragging on for some reason. You were waiting to hear back on some emails from various people and found yourself sitting around bored. Work for you started fairly early in the morning, meaning you couldn’t stay over with your boyfriend as it would be too long of a drive that early. It also meant that your boyfriend probably wouldn’t be up for a couple more hours.
The two of you had extremely different work lives and paths, but that didn’t stop the two of you from being each other’s biggest cheerleaders. You both had a passion for what you did and wanted to be the best at it, even if neither of you truly understood what each other did. That was the fun in it, though! There was always something new to talk about and explain to each other. The way you had fun explaining the process of an office setting and your daily work environment matched the way his face lit up whenever he talked about his new video idea or a surprise collab he was excited for.
Although you both loved what you did, work made it difficult for the two of you to see each other as much as you both would like. Even if you finished work at 4:30, driving to the FaZe house meant another hour and a half to two hour drive during peak traffic time and after working a full day. Plus it was rare for you to ask him to drive down when at most you would get to spend a few hours together before you would fall asleep on him while watching a movie or laying around together. Nevertheless, the two of you made a point to get together at least once a week and talk often enough to see how the other was doing.
Sitting at your desk, you started to think about your handsome guy and what he could be up to. Thinking back on it, you feel like it’s been a while since the last time you guys got together to hang out. You look to your calendar, only to realize that the two of you haven’t been able to get together in more than two weeks. Last weekend you had a birthday trip that was planned for months, while the weekend before Lucas had a last minute collab come up and had to take a raincheck on getting together. A pout starting to form on your face, you can’t believe how busy the last two weeks have been for both of you to not get together one time. Even when you were busy, one of you would try to make a point of driving to see the other- if only for a few hours to see a movie or spend dinner together.
Just then you start filtering through some of your messages. Scrolling through, you expected it to be a mix of the two of you not being able to find time to make something work. However, it seemed like your work was getting in the way of getting together a lot more than usual. Any time Lucas offered to drive down to see you or plan something to get together, you ended up having to work overtime and stay late. Being that you were so overworked, you didn’t realize how many hours you had been putting in at the office. Not to mention, it caused you to be extremely tired when you finally made it home. It wasn’t that you had difficulty justifying driving to be with him for that night, but you couldn’t justify that far of a drive to work the next morning.
Because both of you were passionate about your work, Lucas didn’t want to bring up the lack of time you were spending together as there were times that you were willing to wait until it was a good time for him. Thus, he decided all he could really do was try to make a day and time work. Waking up that morning, he decided to get his day going and message you in a couple hours in the event you had a busy morning and could message him around lunch time. And now here you were, sitting at work and waiting to end your day as soon as possible even if lunch was just about to start for you.
Taking your lunch a little early, you decide to message Lucas and see what he was up to. Checking in on him, you message saying: “Hey, you awake cute stuff?”
Seeing your message, Lucas’s smile grows and he is quick to respond with: “Of course, my day is on the path to success. Did you get lucky and finally get to take a lunch?”
“Finally. I just realized this morning how much I have been working! I feel like I haven’t seen your cute face in awhile and I’m starting to miss it,” you respond.
Chuckling to himself a bit, Lucas responds by sending, “It’s not for lack of me trying, I miss your cute face too...and your horrible jokes.”
Rolling your eyes, you state: “I know, I know. When does it work for you if I drive down?”
Lucas starts to type, “Well, tonight would be fine, I don’t know how busy you are or if you want to make the drive since you have work tomorrow, too.” Pausing, he realizes he misses you a bit more than he’d like to lead on. Pondering the idea of, ‘Maybe if I at least asked if she would be okay to stay over, just this once she would consider it on a work night?’ Continuing his message, he types, “I don’t have any videos set up to film today or tomorrow, just some editing to do at some point, is there no way you could just spend the night tonight? You’ve been working so late, you can take off a morning, right, and go in later?”
Reading his message, you consider it for a couple minutes before making up your mind. ‘Well, I do need to work tomorrow. But I have been putting in a lot of overtime lately. I can’t come in later due to the time differences with the people I talk with. Maybe I can work from my laptop tomorrow?’ Thinking everything over, you decide on taking the chance of getting distracted by your boyfriend’s good looks the following morning. You text him back saying, “Okay, I will bring my laptop and work from your place tomorrow while you are editing until it’s time for me to drive home.”
Unable to believe his eyes, Lucas messages back stating, “Are you serious?? You’re actually going to drive here and stay the night??” Smile getting larger and larger, his hopes are starting to skyrocket.
Laughing, you text back, “Yeah, just try not to distract me too much (; I can’t go into work late because of time zones so I’ll just make it a work-from-home day and save time.”
Excited, Lucas texts: “okay! We can spend tomorrow editing and working and cuddling in bed!”
Smiling, you can’t believe how cute he is and message back, “haha alright, babe. I’ve got to get back to work, but I’ll text you when I’m on my way! Better have some kisses prepared after making this drive...”
Grinning ear to ear, Lucas is quick to message back: “Don’t worry, there will be more than kisses waiting for you when you get here (; have a good rest of your day, babe!”
Sending a quick, “Thanks, you too!,” you turn back to your computer and notice a plethora of new emails. Walking to your boss’s office you clarify that you will be working from home tomorrow to handle a bunch of new issues that have just come up. He agrees and also tells you that you should take more home office days as needed. After returning back to your desk, you ponder the idea of taking a day a week to work from home. If either of you were too busy on the weekend to get together, it would mean that you and Lucas would get to hang out while both of you worked. Not to mention, it would give you an excuse to take breaks as needed. Which at least then some time together would be better than no time in a few weeks.
The new set of emails and their problems were staring you down a this point. Wanting to get everything done so you could be on your way sooner to your bae, you started filtering through everything one by one and handling things more efficiently than usual. Even if it were a few hours until you could finally hug and kiss your favorite FaZe member, those hours were going to pass by quickly with the amount of work you were about to get done. You were excited to see him and tell him the good news about being able to make more time to see each other.
Your excitement matched Lucas’s as he spent the rest of the day telling everyone how excited he was to see you and hang out with you finally. To be honest everyone was a bit worried about him and they were thrilled to find out that it was simply that you both were busy and couldn’t find time. Knowing how much you two cared about each other and were in sync, no one was surprised to find you two cuddled up one minute and the next on laptops grinding out some work.
Hello, it is me. Yes, I have returned from the dungeons.
Let me know how/if you guys enjoyed this and what you would like to see next. This would be pretty easy to switch around with other FaZe members if you wanted it about someone else. Anyway, 100 notes and I’ll drive from work to cuddle FaZe Blaze.
