Antinous with a fem reader hcs PLLLLLEEEEEASE 🤕🤕

like she's rlly enamoured with him!!

Antinous x Fem! Reader (Hcs or Imagines)

Author note: (Art belongs to @Duvetbox on YouTube). This is mainly going to be Epic! Antonious, not the Odyssey because I am still yet to properly read it.

CW (Content warning): None really. It’s mainly fluff, might be a bit out of character (sorry for that😭).

⚔️- You were a simple hand maiden working at the palace. You didn’t do much besides help the queen and occasionally the prince of Ithaca.

🏺- You were around the same age as Telemachus himself, so you knew very little about the king. Just as the prince. All you knew is that Penelope, your queen, missed him dearly and was longing for him.

⚔️- Of course with the King of Ithaca missing this brought its own problems. Such as the suitors. Many came to try and win the favour of the queen and try to convince her to give up hope of her husband returning.

🏺- Trying to court and sway her to make one of them her husband and the new king. It was tiresome to say the least.

⚔️- At first you didn’t know what to think, but as time went on it was starting to get irritating. Men constantly in the grand halls. Some being rowdy and others trying to pick a fight with Telemachus.

🏺-You could definitely understand Penelope’s annoyance with them. However, something weird started to happen.

⚔️- One suitor that caught your attention was a man named Antonious. He was sort of like the ringleader for the suitors and you had to admit he was quite handsome.

🏺- His physique wasn’t half bad either. With that string jaw line and that smug smirk of his. He was just so…pretty. And though you will admit he is a bit (if not a lot) of a bully to Telemachus, he still seemed to be a fine man.

⚔️- Sometimes you’d catch yourself staring only to snap out of it before anyone noticed. You’ve never been courted before so that’s why it surprised you when suddenly out of the blue Antonious started to pursue you!

🏺- You were ecstatic at first! You felt as if Aphrodite herself granted you this favour and that Eros shot you with one of his golden arrows..however it felt too good to be true.

⚔️- You started to grow cautious each time he would speak to you. Because it didn’t make sense. A suitor? Going after a handmaiden? It sounded ridiculous.

🏺- What if Antonious was just using you to get to the queen? That was a possibility and a good point but you couldn’t help swooning each time he talked to you. His tone slightly baritone and melodic. It made you melt. You got butterflies each time.

⚔️- You were embarrassed to say you were catching feelings. And Antonious noticed it too. That was his goal anyway, he noticed you exact time he came around, and he felt something click in his brain.

🏺- The only reason he showed up to the place anymore was just to catch a glimpse of you while you were working. Trying to talk to you each chance he got. And each time he talked to you, he found himself more attracted to you.

⚔️- It got to the point where he just said screw it and started to pursue you, with your enthusiastic permission of course.

🏺- The other suitors were confused but Antonious paid them no mind.

⚔️- At the end of the day he was more concerned with winning your hand than explaining himself to the others

🏺- And of course he did. You were absolutely smitten with Antonious. So much so that you finally allowed him to start courting you properly.

⚔️- He gladly accepted, constantly showing up to the place with small but sweet gifts for you that he knew you would like.

🏺- And while Queen Penelope was surprised by the sudden change in behaviour she allowed the man to court you, much to your surprise and excitement.

⚔️- At least he had decided to leave the queen alone at least.

NOOO ur comment about the scarf thing had me actually blushing like i had to step away from my pc for a second 🧎‍♀️ also about not outright admitting it.. yeah who are we kidding yesterday solidified the fact that im a little too far gone

it makes me rlly happy that u think he's a genuinely good guy too! sure my framing of him with all the yoongi comparisons and whatnot might be swaying in that direction on your end but i distinctly remember that what you were saying about him being genuine were some of the same thoughts i had about him after knowing him for about a month! i totally get what u mean about men playing up their nice behavior for other motives because ive dealt with a lot of that in the past too 🤕 and ngl it worried me at first about him too,, but up until now he's been nothing but sweet with little things he does (like yesterday we both started saying smth at the same time and then he pretended that he forgot what he was saying until i said what i was gonna say.. he said he likes hearing me talk bc he knows ive always been more of a listener than a talker and he likes knowing what i have to say) plus even my mom said he must've been raised right so there's that 🤪 oof with every ask it gets more and more obvious how i feel huh

i suppose thats also one of the things that drew me away from immediately catching feelings because.. idk? i felt like i had to prove to myself that i can have sweet guy friends (and attractive ones to boot) without getting in over my head and wanting to be more than that. but if he were to confess then.. yeah not sure what id do at that point but i defintely would want to take it slow so ty for your comforting words 🥺 but yeah honestly i appreciate having him as a friend above all else so whatever happens really isnt on the forefront of my mind! i do hope he sticks around for a long time regardless of what may happen

also omg im so sorry for talking ur ear off about this dude HAHA i hope you're taking care and getting all the love you deserve from everyone around you!

oh my god this is so CUTE. I’m rolling around in my sheets and screaming into my pillow as if he’s my crush too 😭

He pretends to forget what he wants to say???? He likes hearing you talk because he wants to know what you have to say?????? Homie, what kdrama is this? 😭 why am I crying?? 😭 As the honorary president of the Listener™ community... that felt so personal :-( They say love is in the little things, but those little things can mean everything ;n; I’m happy you found someone so kindhearted 💛 after having poor experiences with ‘nice guys’ in the past, there’s always a reason to keep hoping !!!! and *plop* someone genuine has come your way 🥺 Now this is reason enough as to why we should never give up <3 Even if this becomes nothing more than a friendship, it’s something to cherish. You don’t have to prove yourself for anything - you deserve only the sweetest things in life ! Oh no, but now, I realllyy get why you were hesitant to crush on him 😭 ok ok don’t panic, sending you hugs and kisses, but I know everything will work out just fine !!! I only see good things in your future 💛

Oh gosh, and you told your mom about him too !!!!! 🥺 I love that for you 💛 She said he was raised right just like I said !! Smart women think alike !!! 

Have you told anyone else about your situation?? Friends or other people in the friend group?!! What would they thinkk??? They probably know him just as well too ! (Not to get anyone’s hopes up or anything lkasdkl) 

And don’t worry, I love hearing about you and your crush :’) It makes my day, I swear !! You don’t have to apologize <3 If there are any updates, I wanna know !!! 

And thank youu !! Mwah, all my love !
