Queer baiting is ok when professional wrestlers do it because irregardless of their truth they will end up sweaty, rolling around on the mat, bleeding into each other's mouths, and lying in each other's arms.
On the one hand, at least Finn moving to smackdown gets him out of the judgment day vortex, but on the other hand he is now not on the same brand as Seth so now my only hope for them interacting in the near future is if they both win their king of the ring brackets and face each other in the semifinals.
Sometimes all a girl wants is some good ballins interactions.
death riders perpetually having Many Things going on in their segments, exhibit 500: wheeler shirtless and kneeling, mox quite literally rubbing his hands together as he monologues, marina doting on danny like a concerned mom, and claudio just standing over them like a simultaneously menacing and happy guard dog
Love Island!Garrett and Reader being the nosiest couple in the Villa
A/N I miss love island bro đđ but here's a little idea I had (loosely inspired by Brinity) I'm actually kinda obsessed with this concept so let me know if you want more of them! also sorry I have been a bit of an #offlinequeen, I will get to answering everything more tomorrow but I just wanted to get this idea posted lol
âNo way.â
The sudden sound of your voice pulls Garrett from his borderline nap as he feels you sit up slightly from where youâre lounging against his side.Â
He shifts against one of the many fluorescent colored pillows that litters Soul Tiesâ(Garrett thinks theyâre tacky, you think that they are the only thing preserving your modesty to the American public, both of you agree that they are ridiculously easy to nap on)âletting out a questioning hum.
âOkay, donât look now, but Dean is totally pulling Allie for a chat right nowâ,â
Garrett turns to look, because last he saw, Allie was having a very boring looking conversation with Sean by the pool and he can only imagine what the guy must be looking like as he watches the newest bombshell in the Villa pull his partner away for a chat, but youâve already tangled your fingers into his curls, jerking his head back towards you.
âAhâHey!â Garrett lightly pinches the muscle of your calf from where itâs thrown over his lap.
âI told you not to look, justâIâll tell you whatâs happening, but donât be obvious.â Your fingers smooth the slight sting against his scalp absentmindedly, but your eyes stay focused on whateverâs happening over his shoulder. âOkay, act like Iâm chatting you up with the sexiest lines youâve ever heard in your life.â
Garrett snorts lightly. âYeah, because thatâs believable.â
You let your jaw drop in mock offense. âFine. I guess you donât want to hear about how Deanâs physically helping pull Allie up from the bean bags right now.â
âNo shit.â Garrettâs eyebrows raise slightly in surprise.
âYes shit,â you confirm excitedly. âHeâs, like, fully holding her hand, fingers interlocked and everything. Oh, Sean looks pissedâStop trying to look!â
âOkay, okay,â Garrett laughs lightly, relaxing back into the cushions as he starts tracing absentminded circles on your ankle bone. âWhatâs happening now?â
You squint. âTheyâre still chatting on the lawnâIâm gonna try to read their lips.â
â...Youâre gonnaâ?â
âShh! Okay, so Deanâs being like, âHey Allie, I was thinking we could explore our connection moreâ.â
Garrett shakes his head in amusement as you drop your voice an octave to mimic Dean.
You continue, âAllie doesnât really look impressed.â You pause. âOkay, now Dean is giving her crazy bedroom eyesâHeâs like, âI just think we could explore our connection with our mouths. Like, my mouth on your mouth. Being all hot and sexy with our mouth connectionââ,â
âHe is not saying that.â
âOh yeah? And how would you know?â You look down indignantly.
ââBeing all hot and sexy with our mouth connectionâ,â he mocks. âI donât think there is a single guy in the world that has ever said that.
âIâm sorry, I didnât realize you were the lip reader here.â
Garrett laughs. âYouâre not even letting me look.â
âExactly. Nowâ,â
He watches your face as you follow the two other Islanders with your eyes, the excitement on your features morphing to disappointment as you pout.
ââUgh, I canât see them anymore.â
Garrett lets his hand travel up your leg to the dip of your hipâwith zero protest from youâplaying lightly with the strings of your bikini bottoms. âWell, if I had to guess from the whole âmouth connectionâ thing, theyâre probably just picking up from where they left off last night.â
You still, finally reverting your gaze back to him. âWhat happened last night?â
âI meanâŠâ Garrett tries to suppress his grin when your eyes narrow. âAll I know is that I saw them walking out of the photobooth together last night. And Deanâs not exactly subtle soâŠâ
âAnd youâre just telling me this now?!â You lightly slap his bare chest.
Garrettâs hand spreads against your hip, his fingers digging possessively into the skin. âWell, I was going to tell you earlier, but then I remembered that you didnât even finish, like, a third of your water bottle yesterday.â
âOh, so youâre purposefully withholding gossip from me as punishment because I can be a little forgetful?â
Garrett meets your dramatic gaze with a flat look. âIf it makes you drink water, yes.â
âFineâ,â You pick up your water bottle, exaggeratedly going to take a defiant sip.Â
Your water bottle seems to agree with Garrett thoughâdeciding to also punish you for the fact that youâve had less than 5 sips of water todayâbecause no sooner had you brought the nozzle to your mouth and squeezed the white plastic than a jet of water suddenly spurts in your face.
A surprised laugh forces itself out of Garrettâs throat, mixing with the sound of your giggles when you canât help but join in.Â
âThat was the funniest fucking thing Iâve ever seen.â
âIt was not that funny!â
âYouâre laughing!â Garrett points out incredulously before you both dissolve into another fit of giggles.
âShh, shh, shh,â you try to quiet yourself down, creasing over until your temple is bumping against his shoulder. âSean is definitely looking at us like weâre freaks right now.â
âLet him.â
âNo, because heâs gonna think weâre laughing at him or something,â you try to argueâeven though, only moments prior, you had been laughing at him.
Garrett just shakes his head, his tone sickeningly sweet as he stops laughing and looks at you through half-lidded eyes. âCâmere.âÂ
And then with a gentleness not at all necessary for the situation, he cups your face with a large hand, tenderly wiping at the water droplets clinging to your skin. Your expression softens, laughter trickling off into quiet breaths as you still underneath him, letting him continue to trace over every inch of your face with his calloused thumbs.
A small, drowsy smile makes its way onto his face and suddenly all the energy you had just a moment earlier drains. The summer Fiji heat settles like warm honey, pulling you and Garrett back into the quietness of the afternoon. You let out a small sigh when Garrett finally leans down to press a lazy kiss against your lips, fingers tangling in the thick curls at the nap of his neck.
You feel him pull away slowly, your eyes still closed as he presses one, and then two, more lingering kisses to your lips before settling down next to you, his large hand tracing soothing patterns up and down your back.
Distantly, you can hear the sounds of two Islanders chatting as they use the gym equipment, the steady taps of a ping-pong ball bouncing back and forth, hushed whispers between a few of the girls that youâre sure youâll hear more about when you all get ready for the evening. But that all fades away as you listen to the steady inhale and exhale of Garrettâs breaths. You let out a content hum from where youâre tucked under his chin.Â
âDonât think Iâm just gonna forget the fact that you didnât tell me about the Allie and Dean thing.â
You feel Garrettâs chest vibrate with laughter underneath you. âOh, I know you wonât.âÂ
