It's Okay Not to be Okay l Conrad Fisher x Youngest Sibling!Reader

Pairing: Conrad Fisher x Youngest Sibling!Reader Genre: Angst, hurt/comfort, slow burn, emotional romance, family dynamics Summary: Being the youngest has taught you how to be easy, quiet, and fine. At Cousins, you perfect the art of smiling through the weight you carry so no one else has to. But Conrad Fisher has always been watching. He learned the language of your silences, your habits, and the way you disappear for everyone else’s comfort. When pretending stops working, Conrad refuses to look away. He turns quiet observation into a confrontation where the truth is spoken before you can retreat back into being fine. Note: In case you need more of our Connie baby!

I learned how to be okay the way people learn a language they never wanted. Slowly. Accidentally. Out of necessity.

It started small. A shrug instead of an explanation. A joke instead of a confession. A smile offered before anyone could notice the crack forming underneath it.

Over time, being okay became fluent. It slipped out of my mouth without permission, polished and practiced, convincing enough that people stopped asking follow-up questions. Convincing enough that I almost believed it myself.

Being the youngest made it easier to learn. When you are the youngest, people assume you are adaptable. That you bounce back faster. That whatever hurts you will pass because someone older has already survived worse.

You watch your older sibling carry responsibilities and you tell yourself not to add to it. You learn early that your job is to be light. To be easy. To be the one who does not need as much.

So being okay became my offering.

Being okay was easier than explaining why my chest felt heavy for no visible reason, like something was sitting on my lungs and refusing to move. It was quicker than admitting that I felt replaceable even in rooms full of people who loved me, like my presence was appreciated but not required.

As the youngest, I learned that love often came with reassurance directed elsewhere. I learned to tell myself that if everyone else was okay, then I should be too.

Being okay was safe. It didn’t demand anything back. It didn’t make people uncomfortable. It didn’t turn me into a problem that needed solving.

Being okay let people leave without guilt.

So I wore it. Every day. I wore it the way others wore jewelry or sunscreen, something necessary, something protective. It became part of my posture, the way I carried myself, the tone of my voice. If I said it often enough, confidently enough, people stopped looking closer. And I learned not to look too closely either. The youngest learns that if you do not ask, you do not burden.

At Cousins, it was even easier.

The beach had a way of softening the edges of everything. Sunlight spilled across the porch in the mornings like forgiveness. The ocean breathed steadily, patient and endless, reminding everyone that nothing stayed broken forever.

Laughter came easier here, lighter, like it belonged in the air. Pain felt out of place at Cousins, like it was something that should have been left behind with the rest of the school year and responsibilities.

Or at least that was what everyone believed.

At Cousins, sadness was temporary. Loneliness was brushed off as boredom. Exhaustion was blamed on late nights and too much sun. If something hurt, you went swimming. If something lingered, you distracted yourself until it didn’t. And if it didn’t work, you smiled anyway, because this place was supposed to be happy.

As the youngest, it felt almost wrong to bring heaviness into a place like this. Everyone else carried memories, expectations, grief that seemed bigger. I told myself mine could wait. I told myself there would be time later.

I believed it too, most of the time.

I believed that if I laughed loudly enough, whatever followed me here would dissolve into the salt air. I believed that if I stayed useful, pleasant, agreeable, I would belong without question. I believed that being fine was not just acceptable here, but expected, especially from me.

And then there was Conrad Fisher.

He was the exception in a way that unsettled me. He didn’t look at me like I was fragile, or like I was fine. He didn’t treat my smiles as conclusions or my silence as comfort. When his eyes found me, they lingered, not curious, not invasive, but focused, like he was listening to something I hadn’t said out loud.

He looked at me like he was trying to read a language he already understood, but wanted to be sure he wasn’t mistranslating.

Sometimes his gaze followed me across the room when I laughed with the others. Sometimes I caught him watching when I thought no one was paying attention, when my smile dropped for just a second, when my shoulders sagged after holding myself together for too long. He never called me out. Never asked me to explain. He just noticed.

That was the part that scared me.

Because as the youngest, I was used to being overlooked in quiet ways. I was used to being assumed okay. Conrad did not assume. He paid attention in a way that felt dangerous, like he might ask me to take up space I had spent years learning how to shrink.

I told myself it didn’t mean anything. That Conrad watched everyone like that. That he was just quiet, just observant, just lost in his own thoughts. I told myself that if he really saw me, he would look away.

People always did, eventually.

I told myself a lot of things.

And somehow, none of them stopped the feeling that with Conrad, fine was not going to be enough.

Dinner was loud in the way family dinners always were, chaotic and familiar, layered with overlapping voices and half-finished thoughts that piled on top of one another without apology. Cam sat at the head of the table, elbows wide, telling a story with his hands as punctuation, his voice rising and falling dramatically as he steered the room wherever he wanted it to go.

He had always been good at commanding a space, good at filling every pause before it could stretch into something uncomfortable. My oldest brother knew how to keep things moving. He knew how to keep us laughing even when there was nothing particularly funny to hold on to.

Being his youngest sibling meant I learned early how to follow that rhythm. When Cam spoke, I listened. When he laughed, I laughed too. When he carried the weight of the room, I made sure not to add any more to it.

Steven sat beside him, slumped low in his chair, one hand wrapped around his phone, the other lazily reaching for food. He listened just enough to know when to react, lifting his head to add a sarcastic comment or a perfectly timed jab whenever it earned him attention. He grinned at his own jokes, pleased and careless. Watching him, it was easy to forget that not everyone filters themselves before speaking. As the youngest, I did that work automatically.

Jeremiah was all warmth and noise, sprawled across his chair like it had been made just for him. He interrupted freely, talking over Cam without apology, laughing too loudly at his own stories. He tossed popcorn into his mouth like the future had never given him a reason to slow down or think twice. He looked like someone who trusted the world to catch him. I envied that sometimes, the way he took up space without thinking about who might need it more.

Belly sat across from me, knees tucked under her chair, hands folded neatly in her lap until she forgot what to do with them. She smiled often, brightly, but there was tension in it, something stretched thin. Her eyes flicked toward Conrad every few seconds when she thought no one noticed, like checking the tide. Like checking for reassurance.

I noticed.

I always noticed everything. The shifts in voices. The way laughter changed depending on who was speaking. The small pauses people thought went unseen. Being the youngest taught me how to watch before it taught me how to speak. Watching kept me prepared. Watching kept me out of the way.

So I played my part.

I laughed at the right moments, softening my laugh when Cam reached the punchline, so it did not pull focus. I nodded when he asked how my classes were going, gave him just enough detail to satisfy him without inviting concern.

I shrugged when Steven teased me about overworking myself, rolling my eyes like it was a joke I had heard a hundred times and never taken seriously. When Jeremiah leaned over and asked if I wanted to go for a night swim later, his grin bright and hopeful, I smiled back and told him I was tired but good.

“I’m okay,” I said brightly and automatically.

The word landed perfectly. It always did. No one questioned it. No one paused. As the youngest, that was the goal. Do not slow things down. Do not shift the mood. It slipped neatly into the space it was meant to fill and disappeared.

Conrad sat slightly apart from the rest of us, his chair angled just enough to feel intentional. He leaned back, one arm draped over the back of his seat, his fork barely touched on his plate. He was not contributing much to the conversation, but he did not need to. He was present in a way that did not demand attention.

He watched.

When Cam told another joke, the table erupted in laughter. I laughed too, maybe a second too late, the sound catching up to the moment instead of creating it.

When Jeremiah nudged my shoulder playfully, I nudged him back without thinking. When Belly caught my eye and smiled, I smiled right back, matching her expression like a mirror. Being the youngest meant becoming good at reflecting what others needed to see.

It was seamless. It was convincing.

But Conrad saw the way my laughter faded first, how it dropped off before anyone else’s did. He saw the way my shoulders pulled tight when Cam casually asked if everything was okay with me lately, his tone light but his eyes briefly searching. Conrad saw the way my fingers worried at the edge of my napkin under the table, tearing it into thin strips without me realizing I was doing it.

“You good?” Steven asked casually, still looking at his phone.

“Yeah,” I said. “Just tired.”

Conrad’s gaze sharpened. It was subtle, but I felt it like a shift in temperature. Something in his posture changed, like he had been waiting for that answer.

I avoided his eyes. The youngest learns how to do that too.

The conversation moved on the way it always did. Someone asked for more food. Someone complained about the music. Plates were slowly cleared, pushed aside in lazy motions. A speaker crackled to life somewhere in the house, filling the space with sound that didn’t ask anything of us.

Jeremiah was the first to stand, grabbing Steven by the arm and dragging him toward the door, already talking about the water. Belly followed close behind, calling Conrad’s name over her shoulder. He muttered something about coming later, his attention still fixed on the table, on me.

I stood and reached for a plate, automatically moving to help Cam with the dishes. Helping was another way of staying useful. Of staying small.

“You don’t have to,” he said easily. “Go relax.”

“I’m good,” I replied without hesitation.

Good. Good. Good.

The word stayed lodged in my throat even as I walked away. As I carried the plates toward the kitchen, I felt it. That steady weight between my shoulder blades.

Conrad’s eyes on my back.

Not curious. Not distracted. Just knowing.

We ended up outside without planning it, like our bodies knew where to go before our minds caught up. The back steps of the house were cool beneath me as I sat down, knees pulled tight to my chest, arms wrapped around myself out of habit.

The wood smelled faintly of salt and old summers. The ocean hummed in the distance, steady and indifferent, like it had seen everything before and would see it all again.

Conrad sat beside me after a moment. Not too close. Not far enough to feel like space. Close enough that I could feel his presence, the warmth of him, the quiet attention he carried with him like gravity. He did not touch me. That somehow made it harder to breathe.

Silence pressed against my ribs until it hurt.

I started talking because if I did not, I felt like I might fold in on myself.

“I’m so tired,” I said, staring out at the dark water. “Not the kind of tired that sleep fixes. The kind that sits in your bones and makes everything feel heavier than it should.”

My voice sounded small to my own ears, but I kept going.

“I’m tired of being the reliable one. The easy one. The one everyone expects to be okay because I always have been.” I swallowed hard. “I’m the youngest. That’s what they say. Like that explains everything. Like it means I don’t get to be overwhelmed because everyone else already went through it first.”

I let out a shaky breath.

“I learned early that if I didn’t cause problems, things stayed calmer. If I stayed light, stayed helpful, stayed agreeable, people didn’t worry. And if people didn’t worry, they stayed.” My fingers tightened in the fabric of my sleeves. “So I became that person. The one who smiles first. The one who says it’s fine before anyone asks.”

I laughed softly, without humor. “Do you know how exhausting it is to be the youngest and still feel like you have to hold everyone together?”

My voice wavered then, but I did not stop it.

“I’m tired of being leaned on but never leaned into. Tired of being the one people vent to, joke with, relax around, but never stay with when things get quiet. I make everything lighter, so no one notices how heavy it is inside me.” I shook my head. “Sometimes I don’t even know who I’d be if I stopped.”

Conrad did not interrupt. He did not shift. He did not try to fill the space with comfort or solutions. He listened like every word mattered.

When I finally ran out of breath, my throat burned, raw and tight. The quietness returned, heavier than before, wrapping around us like a held breath.

Conrad turned toward me.

“You aren't okay,” he said.

I laughed. Sharp. Hollow. It felt like glass in my chest. “No,” I said. “I’m literally okay.”

He did not nod. He did not accept it the way everyone else always did.

“You’re lying,” he said.

Something in me snapped.

“Oh really?” I scoffed, standing up too fast, the movement fueled by panic and anger all at once. “You know me that well now?”

I turned away from him, arms crossing tight over my chest like armor. “You don’t actually know me, Conrad. You know the version of me that shows up to dinner and smiles at jokes. You know the youngest sibling who doesn’t rock the boat.”

He was quiet for a moment. Long enough that I almost expected him to let it go.

Then he stood.

“I know you hate mornings,” he said.

The words stopped me cold.

“You wake up already exhausted because your brain never shuts up. You lie there and count everything you need to do, everything you might mess up, everything you think people expect from you.” His voice was steady. “You say you like being alone, but it’s not because you prefer it. It’s because being alone hurts less than being disappointed.”

I turned slightly, my heart starting to pound.

“You drink coffee even though it makes you anxious. You pretend you don’t care when people cancel plans, but it ruins your whole day because it feels like confirmation of something you already believe.” He took a step closer.

“You laugh when things hurt. You apologize when you shouldn’t. You flinch when voices get too loud. You always sit where you can see the exits because you like knowing how to leave before you’re left,” he continued.

My breath hitched.

“And don’t hide behind being the youngest,” Conrad continued. “I’ve been the oldest my whole life. I know what it looks like when the youngest one struggles quietly. When everyone assumes they’re fine because they’re easy. Because they’re adaptable. Because they learned early how to shrink their needs.”

I turned fully then.

Conrad stepped closer, careful, like he was approaching something fragile. His voice softened, but his eyes didn’t. They were fierce with something that felt terrifyingly close to devotion.

“And when you say you’re fine,” he said, “your mouth smiles before your eyes do. Your shoulders lift like you’re bracing for impact. Your hands shake.”

He reached out, slow enough that I could pull away. I didn’t.

His fingers brushed my wrist. “Here.”

Then my jaw, knuckles barely grazing skin. “Here.”

Then my cheek. “And here. You hold yourself like you’re trying not to take up space.”

Tears burned hot and sudden, blurring everything.

“This,” he whispered, fingers hovering near my face without quite touching, “this feels more intimate than touching you anywhere else. Because it’s the truth.”

I laughed again, broken and breathless. “Stop,” I said weakly.

“No,” he replied. “Not this time.”

I turned away, shaking my head. “You don’t know everything,” I muttered. “You don’t know how much I mess up. How much I doubt myself. How scared I am of being too much.”

He was quiet for a second. Then his voice dropped, careful and honest.

“I've known you more than you think," he paused. Then he sighed before continuing, "I...I’ve loved you longer than you think.”

I froze.

“The first time,” he said, “was the summer you turned around on the boardwalk in that yellow dress. You had a flower tucked in your hair, like it had always belonged there. You smiled at someone calling your name, not posing, not trying. Just you.” His breath hitched slightly. “I remember thinking that no one ever looked at you long enough.”

I couldn’t move.

“I watched you after that,” he continued. “Not in a creepy way. In a worried way. In a way that felt like responsibility even before it felt like love. I saw how you carried everyone else. How you disappeared when no one needed you anymore.”

He stepped closer until there was no space left.

“I know enough,” Conrad said softly. “Enough to know you’re not okay. And that it’s okay not to be okay. Enough to know you’ve been alone even when you’re surrounded. And enough to know I don’t want to be someone who looks away.”

Something feral rose in my chest, anger and longing tangled together. I spun around and kissed him.

It was rough. Messy. All teeth and breath and everything I had swallowed down for years. He kissed me back like he understood the language of my rage, his hands gripping my waist, grounding me, holding me in place like I was real and solid and allowed to exist fully.

The world narrowed to heat and breath and the sound of our hearts racing.

When we finally broke apart, my forehead pressed to his, tears spilling freely now, no longer held back. "I love you too, Conrad," I murmured softly. "I know...I know," he affirmed and caressed my hair.

“Don’t leave,” I whispered, furious at myself for needing to say it.

“I won’t,” Conrad said.

No drama. No promises dressed up as certainty. Just truth.

And for once, I didn’t pretend.

I had a fun and emotional time writing this. Thank you to @smaiisposts for requesting it. I hope you enjoy reading it! Every request from all of you means so much to me, and as long as there are people who love and support our Conrad, I will keep trying to write more.

I know I’ve been harping on about Jeremiah’s ending but I cannot believe he’s going to be a chef. Working in a restaurant and everything! I MEAN HE MADE FRIENDSGIVING DINNER. Laurel mentioning how her mom would’ve loved his dish if she were there 🥹 “She’d say finally some good food.” Yes, he’s still a bit of a mess but he’s really growing, all of them are. ESPECIALLY MY GIRL BELLY, WHO DECIDED TO STAY IN PARIS ANOTHER YEAR. You go Isabel! The growth is unmatched, also I ship Benito & Belly I’m not sorry. They are so cute. (Mexican Solidarity like that’s my cousin fr). Back to the point my Bellyjere finding out who they’re meant to be, while still being important in each other’s lives, ah I’m just so pleased with where they’re headed… not even her ending up with Conrad could spoil this. I can’t wait to see where they end up in the finale

P.S. i also love that Steven & Denise are also doing what they love with their company. Taylor is glowing and killing it as always. Everyone’s ending is looking bright <3
