Pairing: Tyler Scheid x fem!reader
Summary: Tyler has a new phrase. But how true is it?
Authors Note: Slightly inspired by Friends, slightly not. Part Two maybe? Also, this story is told as the reader is female. As always, for my NonBinary/Male pals out there, if you would like for me to rewrite the story with genderless pronouns, just let me know and Iâll get it up as soon as possible.
Warnings: Slight mature content, implied smut
If there was one thing Tyler said more often than not, even more than his signature phrase of Smile Always, it was âweâre just friendsâ. (Y/N) and Tyler had been friends for years now, ever since the first time he had come out to visit Mark in LA. After meeting him during one of your many long hours of working at you local coffee house, you had started a relationship of sorts. Yet, the long distance was killer, and the two of you decided a friendship was much easier to maintain. And now, with Tyler living in LA to help with Markâs videos, you were closer than ever. This, of course, lead to hours upon hours of teasing from the team, and your friends. No one seemed to get the hint, and at this point, you had given up. Waiters who used to get an earful for calling him your boyfriend would get a polite nod and smile, friends who teased you would be met with a witty comeback, and Ethan, who had gotten into the habit of calling you âMrs.Schiedâ, was met with a swift punch to the shoulder. Tyler, on the other hand, had no problem with any of it. The two of you were friends, why should it matter what other people thought?
    In the short few months that Tyler was working with Mark, you had already made great friends with Teamiplier. Amy and Katheryn would often be invited over to your house for girls nights with your friends, or just to avoid the boys when they were being particularly difficult. Your house, in a way, was a social hot spot. Whether it was your friends or Tylers, there always seemed to be someone wandering around your house. You enjoyed the company, and especially were thankful when you had locked yourself out of the house. If Ethan hadnât been there, you were sure all your groceries would have been spoiled. Youâre positive almost everyone has a copy of your key.Â
    It was Thursday, your favorite day of the week. To some, it was just another day of the week, another day until the weekend. But Thrusdays in your house meant 'date nightâ of sorts. You and Tyler would go out to eat every Thursday, whether it was the new, fancy restaurant downtown, or the nearest fast food place. It was a special day, when you two could easily talk about whatever you wanted with no interruption from your other friends. You loved your friends, but there was rarely a time you got to be alone with your best friend.Â
    You were quick to dress after a day of work, changing into a simple dress for your bistro date tonight. It was your turn to pick up Tyler today. Or, well, you were sure if you didnât go into the office, he was going to try to talk his way into staying a little longer than necessary to help. Just as you were pulling up the driveway, Amy had bursted through the door, completely soaked from head to toe, a grumpy look on her face.Â
    âAmy?â You hopped out of the car as quick as possible, wrapping your jacket around her shoulder. âYou okay? What happened?â
    âPranked.â She said simply, blowing a strand out of her face with a huff. âI canât believe Ethanâs stupid prank worked on me.â You couldnât help it. A bubbling laugh escaped your lips, just imagining the shenanigans that were happening throughout the day. âTyler Thursdays?â She asked once she eyes the cute dress you were wearing. You smiled brightly, doing a single twirl to show off your newest outfit. âCuuuute. Trying to impress someone?â
    âYou know it.â The wink you gave her caused her to laugh. âTyler still inside?â
    âYeah, but Iâd watch out. Mark has taken getting back at Tyler for the fake spider in his coffee this morning to the extreme.â
    âDuly noted.â After making sure she was okay for the last time, you made your way into the house with extreme caution. However, as you made your way large room where you knew they filmed most of their videos, a large circle of white came sailing at your head. Acting quickly, you just managed to duck out of the way, the shaving cream filled plate hitting the wall behind you. Besides the small bit of splash that hit your arm and head, you were relatively unscathed. The room had completely frozen, watching you silently as you stood, wiping off as much as you could. Mark was standing comically to the side, positioned in such a way you knew he was the culprit of the 'prankâ. Tyler was on the other side, holding up a large board for protection, most of it already covered in shaving cream. âIâll be in the car.â Without another word, you turned on your heel, making your way through the house. Tyler was quick to say goodbye to Mark, dropping the board, and dashing behind you, apologizing profusely for almost ruining your dress. You refused to talk, that is until he promised to pay for your meal tonight. With a devilish smile, you promised yourself to order the most expensive thing on the menu.Â
    The next morning, Mark had the perfect plan to get back at Tyler. Sure, it was just a spider in his coffee, but this was about dignity now. He talked his way into getting Ethan to help him load up a bucket of ice water, planning on giving Tyler a pleasant morning wake up. They had to practically waddle up the stairs, the heavy bucked held between them. They made sure to dim the hall lights to not wake Tyler with the bright light. Mark, with a devious smile, gave the Ethan the go ahead, and the bucket of water was poured all over the bed.Â
    âAh!â Though the boys did manage to get a scream out of a sleeping figure, it was definitely too high pitched to be Tyler. You bolted straight out of bed, pushing your now soaked hair out of your face, glaring at the two boys you managed to push into a stupor. Making sure to hold the sheets to your body, you stood, angrily pointing a finger to prove your anger. âWhat the hell is wrong with you?! You canât just go around throwing ice water on people, especially people who havenât done anything to you!â Despite the fact you were practically boiling over, the two boys couldnât take their eyes off of you, faces completely red. âWhat?!â Surprised, you felt another blanket surrounding you, but not before you were turned and pulled into someoneâs warm chest. Despite also being soaked with water, Tyler still managed to stay warm.
    âYou might want to leave now.â Tyler spoke with an even tone, making sure to hold you close against him. Not only was he covering himself for some sort of modesty, the room was too dark for him to find any clothes to cover himself up, in your anger you hadnât realized that the white sheet usually placed on his bed was completely soaked, which meant it had done nothing to hide any part of you. Completely embarrassed, you pushed yourself closer to Tyler, waiting for the door to practically slam behind the two awestruck boys, and even for a few minutes after. Not only had you just been caught in bed with a person you swore youâd never see as more than a friend, but two of his best friends had seen you naked. What a great way to start off your Friday.
