Grant thought they were doing great, he thought that he was making his girlfriend happy, but apparently he was wrong since he had caught her with another guy. This wasn't the first time either. Whenever he saw pictures of her in the tabloids or online, he never wanted to confront her about it because he didn’t want to lose what they had; but it was already lost. Grant had walked into his home at just the right time, catching his girlfriend and yet another man undressing themselves in the hallway. Dropping his bag with a loud thud, he caught the couples attention. His girlfriend’s mouth hung open, the guy behind her looking down.
“Grant, I-I... it’s not what it looks like!” She stammered as she ran over to him. He took a step back, his eyes holding back tears.
“I wasted three years with you, Bella. Three fucking years. If I knew that you’d cheat on me, I would have never asked you out.” Grant wasn't yelling at her, he didn’t like to yell, but his voice showed just how much pain he was in. Bella’s lower lip quivered. “Get out, I want you and him out now. I’ll pack your stuff up tonight and leave it on the front porch for you tomorrow.”
“Get out.” His jaw clenched as he fought back to hold his tears. Bella’s head hung low as she dressed. The man in his home was already dressed and waiting for Bella. The two of them left in silence after that. Grant wiped his eyes, tears now free falling down his pale face. He gave her everything, everything. He sniffled, grabbing his bag and walking up to his bedroom.
That little fiasco happened a week ago, and a week later everyone knew that him and Bella were done. His friends and cast members from The Flash called and texted him, saying how sorry they were, but he didn’t want their apologies all he wanted was to forget the last three years he spent with the girl who broke his heart.
A Grant walked onto his set, he was greeted by his friends Danielle, Candice, and Carlos- also known as Caitlyn Snow, Iris West, and Cisco Ramon. He gave a weak smile to them as he walked over to his friends. When he reached the group his eyes landed on an unfamiliar face.
It was a girl (a very pretty girl as well), her Y/H/C pull back in a messy bun, her Y/E/C sparkling as she smiled and laughed with the cast. Grant’s breath was taken away by her beauty. The girl turned to Grant, flashing him an amazing smile that made his heart do backflips in his chest. Danielle looked between Grant and the girl, a smile spreading across her face.
“Grant, this is Y/N, Y/N this is Grant.” Danielle said, gesturing between the two of them. Y/N stuck out her hand to the actor, the smile not leaving her face once.
“It’s nice to finally meet you Grant, I’ve been wanting to meet you since I saw you on Glee.” Grant’s cheeks flushed red as memories from his other show flooded his mind. Y/N chuckled, tucking back a stray piece of hair. Candice looked over Grant, a small smile on her pink lips.
“Grant, why don’t you show Y/N around, and Y/N why don’t you tell Grant what you do as you two walk.” Candice grabbed her hand, pulling the girl forward and nearly making her coffee spill out of her hands. Y/n was confused as to why Candice was doing this, she had already ben shown around the set.
“But I was already shown-” Y/N was cut off with a shove that sent her flying and nearly ramming into Grant. She scoffed as some of her coffee spilt onto her bag, but thankfully it was closed so none of her belongings were damaged. Grant shrugged, smiling and starting to walk around the set. Y/N caught up with him, still wiping her beverage from her bag. Grant coughed awkwardly as he scratched the back of his neck.
“So, Y/N what do you do?” Chuckling, Y/N took a sip from her cup.
“I’m s youtuber.” She said, smiling with pride. Grant rose an eyebrow.
“Really? What kind of videos do you make?”
Y/N shrugged. “A mix of everything really. Makeup tutorials, hair tutorials, drawing tutorials, dance videos, covers of my favorite songs...” Grant smiled as he listened to Y/N go on about what she did with her YouTube channel. Y/N stopped talking, looking up at Grant who had a smile glued to his face. “What?” Y/N asked, tilting her head. Grant blinked, looking down at you. Y/N chuckled at Grant as his cheeks flared up and he looked down in embarrassment. The two walked back to where everyone was, most of the cast now in their clothes for the show. One of the makeup artists ran over to Y/N and Grant, breathing heavily as she pushed up her glasses.
“Y/N, we gotta get you into makeup and costume.” She breathed out. Y/N nodded, setting her stuff behind the camera crew. Grant looked at her with a confused look.
“What are you doing?” He asked Y/N. She smirked slightly as she began to walk with the makeup artist.
“Did I forget to mention I’m also playing your new villain?”
Over the course of the next three weeks Grant and Y/N were filming together and becoming close friends. Y/N was starting to gain feelings for the brunette, but she didn’t say anything about it to anyone. As Y/N and Danielle sat in makeup getting ready, Danielle spoke up.
“So, has Grant asked you out yet?” You nearly choked on thin air as you heard her question. You shook her head slightly, not wanting to mess up your makeup artist.
“No, why would he? It’s not like he likes me or anything, he did just get out a relationship.” Y/N stated. Danielle shrugged. “Wait, does he like me?” The actress laughed at her friend, standing up and smoothing out her dress. She left without another word, leaving the youtuber and actress confused.
The cast filmed like they did every other day, taking a few breaks every once in a while to fix the actors hair or makeup or talk to them about something. Y/N recited her lines to herself, just to make sure she had them memorized before they started filming again. A tap on her shoulder made her spin around, her eyes going upwards to make eye contact with whoever was wanting her attention. Her black painted lips twisted upwards in a smile as she saw Grant standing in front of her in his Flash suit.
“Hey Grant, what’s up?” Y/N asked, crossing her arms over her chest. Grant smiled nervously, ringing his hands through his gloves.
He licked his chapped lips before talking, “Hey, so um... I was kind of wondering if maybe you’d like to go to this award show with me? You don’t have to of course! Only if you want to.” Grant spoke fast, but Y/N caught every word loud and clear.
“Are you asking me out on a date, Mr. Gustin?” Y/N teased, smirking a bit. Grant gulped, nodding slowly. Y/N chuckled. “I’ll go out with you, Grant.” The boy’s face bursted into a grin. The two actors were called onto the set, grins plastered onto their faces that they couldn’t get rid of.
It had been a little over a month since Y/N and Grant started dating, but they hadn’t gone public with things just quite yet. The only people that knew were the cast and crew of The Flash, and maybe a few of the cast from Arrow and Supergirl.
It was like any other day on the set, going over lines, getting hair and makeup done, and going over the days events. They were filming a fight scene outside, a fight scene between The Flash and Y/N’s character Thorn. Y/N loved playing her character, especially since the power of creating plants was the power Y/N had wanted since she was a little girl.
Grant and Y/N stood close together as their director went over what he wanted from the two actors. Grant slipped his gloved hand into Y/N’s squeezing softly. No one noticed the paparazzi that were swarming the back of the scene, and no one noticed that they were all focused on Y/N and Grant. They filmed like they were supposed to, ignoring the photographers. By the end of the day Y/N and Grant were worn to the bone, tired mentally and physically. Y/N changed into sweats and a tank top while going through her social media, but stopped when she saw the photo of her and Grant that was taken earlier that day. She clicked on the photo and read the description.
‘Wow, so after three years together and only being broken up for a month, Grant and this Y/N chick are already fucking each other. Looks like those three years meant nothing to him.’ Y/N’s jaw clenched as she read through the comments. All of them were about the same, some people saying that Grant and Y/N could do what they wanted with their lives, other were just bashing Y/N completely. Clicking on the profile of the user who posted the picture, Y/N saw that it in fact was Grant’s ex-girlfriend Bella who had posted the photo and started all this drama. Y/N growled, screen shotting the photo and posting it on her own page.
‘@officialbellaa don’t go posting shit abut my relationship with Grant, it is none of your business if you’re not even involved in his life any more. And for your information, Grant and I have been together in a very a happy relationship, unlike yours where all you did was cheat on him when he was away.’ Posting the photo, YN walked out to where her friends and boyfriend were waiting for her, talking and smiling until they all noticed the angry look on her face.
“Y/N? Babe, what’s wrong?” Grant asked, furrowing his eyebrows.
“Your ex Bella? Yeah she started talking shit abut our relationship -which she has no clue about- and how the three years you two spent together meant nothing to you.” Y/N shook her head, laughing in anger. “She’s making herself out as the victim when she’s the one who hurt you.” The group’s faces fell.
Candice gave Y/NN and Grant a reassuring smile. “If it makes you feel any better Y/N, we like you more than we could ever like Bella.” Y?N smiled back at her friend. They all went their separate ways. Y/N going back to Grant’s with him. As he drove the two of them to his place, he held her hand and placed a gentle kiss to her knuckles.
“Don’t listen to what Bella says, Y/N. She’s just looking for attention, it’s what she does.” Y/N nodded slightly, giving a small smile to her boyfriend. “And by the way, I love you more than I did her, and we’ve only been together for a month.”
Y/N grinned. She had wanted to tell Grant she loved him for some time now, but didn’t want it to seem like she was rushing it. “I love you too, Grant.”
Grant went straight to his social media accounts when the two of them got back to his place. He started to defend his wonderful girlfriend, saying how much he loved her and that Bella needed to stop spreading lies about people. Y/N and Grant were made for each other, they were there for each other and got one another better than Grant and Bella ever could.
