Fluffy Friday. Being a long time friend of Street and he convinces you to be his fake girlfriend to make Chris jealous

“C’mon.” Street followed you into the locker room. “Do me this favour, how many times have I covered your ass with Hondo?” he begs you, sitting on the bench as you open your locker. 

“That was once and who’s fault was that? You’re the one that insisted on doing shots the night before.” you roll your eyes at the man as you changed your clothes. 

You were standing in the locker room with just your jeans on, rubbing the lotion onto your arms. “I can feel you staring James.” You hum, and he looks away blushing. 

“Okay but will you just help me out? She won’t even look at me, y/n. Please?” You knew Street was pining over Chris but Chris wasn't stupid, she knows that you two are close friends and nothing more. 

You sigh, turning to the man. “Fine, but you owe me.” you tell him, pulling on your shirt. Jim pulls you into a hug. “Thank you.”

The two of you arrived at Deacon’s house a few minutes after the others. Annie opens the door and lets you two in, telling you both how everyone is outside. You follow her out but not before you grab Street’s hand, interlocking fingers with him.

“Hey!” Deacon smiled at you both as you sit down next to each other. The team shared some looks as Street puts his arm around you, pulling you into his side. 

You two were close, affectionate too but never in front of the team so it was odd for them to see you two like that. 

You reach for a thread on Street’s shirt, pulling it off. He glances down at your hand and then looks at you, smiling lovingly. Deacon can’t help but glance at Chris, her focus on you two. 

He clears his throat, “you two want a beer?” 

“Yeah,” Street smiles, “want one babe?” he asks you and you shook your head. “I’ll just have a sip of yours, I don't want a whole one.” 

Deacon hands a beer to Street before walking off to help Annie with something. “So, how was the drive over? Y’all take y/n’s car?” Luca asks and you shook your head. 

“Jimmy’s bike.” you tell him. Hondo’s brows furrow, “he can barely fit on there, how’d two of you manage that?” 

“Just sat real close.” Street answers, taking a swing of the beer before handing it to you. 

Hondo nods, humming. All focus moves to Chris when she suddenly shifts in her seat, the chair making little creak. Street leans down, his lips brushing against your ear as he whispering. “Think it’s working?” 

You hum, standing. “I’m gonna go see if Annie needs any help,” you say to Street, your hand cupping his cheek before you lean down and give him a kiss. 

“Shout if you need me, baby.” you flash the man a smile before walking off towards the house.
