#getting to meet THE donatella versace

[cheriladycl01]

Could you do SMAU for Toto Wolff with wife fashion designer!reader? He always goes to her events even though he's busy and she vice versa. Bonus : appearance by their son, Jack Wolff. Just something fluff and romantic. Add something else to it if you want to. Thanks!! :))

Dolce and Gabana vs Wolff vs Versace - Toto Wolff x FashionDesignerWife! Reader

Plot: It's coming to the annual Met Gala and you've got a list of celebrities you are set to dress in your brand, however there's one celebrity your all fighting for. Things are getting busy with that and being not even halfway through the F1 season!

"Baby? Can you ask Lewis round for dinner!" you call and he comes trotting round the stairs your son in his arms.

“Mumma” your son cries opening his arms up for you to take him and you frown not being able to hold him anymore so you walk over to the sofa so he can lay down with you.

“Hello baby” you grin nuzzling his nose with yours making him burst out laughing and hold both sides of your cheeks.

“So, Lewis for dinner?” You grin.

“Yes let me message him darling” he says pulling you in for a kiss before tapping away at his phone.

iMessage:

Toto: Hello Lewis, Y/N wants you to come over for dinner. I suspect it’s to ask you about the Met Gala.

Lewis: Ah, yes when should I come over?

Toto: Anytime that pleases you!

“Lewis!” You squeal in excitement as he walks through the door to your home. You pull him in for a hug. You were currently very pregnant with yours and Totos second child, only a few weeks away from your due date. But you never stopped working as, to you it wasn’t really work, it was a hobby that you got payed very kindly to do.

“Hello beautiful” Lewis smiles kissing your cheek before looking you over.

“God look how big she’s getting!” He smiles looking at your stomach making you smile at hold it happily.

“She’s been kicking a lot, she’s ready to come out and meet her uncle” you grin elbowing him a little before your son comes running in.

“LEW LEW” he screams wrapping himself around his uncles leg. Lewis laughs before picking him up.

“So, will you let me style you for the met gala?” You ask, and he laughs a little.

“Mmm I’ve already had a few people reach out to me…” he says cheekily and you gasp in mock horror.

“WHO! Tell me now!” You demand and he laughs.

“Dolce and Gabana and Donatella Versace” he admits and you gasp even more.

“Oh Lord, I can’t fight for you when I’m pregnant” you sigh knowing it would be hard work considering that Lewis had a brand deal with Dolce and Gabana.

“Y/N, chill i was always going to go with you anyway. I trust no one more than i trust you” he grins and you pull him into a bigger hug, regardless of the struggle.

“I promise your going to look amazing!” You grin and he nods knowing you’d keep that up!

fan1: she’s tagged Lewis, does that mean he’s attending and she’s styling him?

-> fan2: I’m sure of it! She’s married to his team principle so she has those connections!

toto.wolff: I’m so proud of everything you’ve done this year!

-> y/user: thank you my love!

fan3: shes such an icon, everyone and their mum is wearing her right now

lewishamilton: I’m excited to work with you again!

You’d worked hard for the last few months, after you’d given birth you got straight to working on your new summer line of clothing which you decided on two different themes.

You’d been a little more stressed, trying to keep up with work while looking after both the kids. But it was getting too much with Toto often away. You’d asked him many times to come home and help but he was so busy with Mercedes and how rubbish their car was this year.

It took a whole breakdown of you sobbing to Lewis on the phone saying you were thinking you’d have to stop out of the Met Gala because of the stress to get Toto’s attention.

He came home straight away, pulling you into a hug and giving you the time off you needed. You spent time at a spa, relaxing and spending evenings with your husband which you felt like you hadn’t done for months now.

Of course you didn’t end up dropping out of the Gala, and you’d turned down all the rumours that you were. The rumours being that Versase and Dolce and Gabana were going to take on all your celebrity clients.

“I’m sorry I haven’t been here for you more” Toto sighs and he cuddles into you and kisses all over your face and down your jaw and onto your neck.

“It’s okay, I love you so much baby” you sigh into him and the feeling of him being present.

fan1: she is the icon, she is the moment

fan2: we gonna get loads of cool stuff this year, I can feel it!

“Can I have some design input” Toto says as he feeds your son while you feed your daughter.

“What do you mean design input?” You ask suspiciously.

Every time that he’d asked for this it had somehow been a ploy to incorpórate the Mercedes logo into something.

“Well I was thinking if you were styling Lewis you could …” he starts but you immediately shake your head and glare.

“No, no toto I - im not putting a Mercedes Logo on Lewis suit!” You cry with a laugh looking at him.

But Toto knew he had a few months to convince you.

iMessage

Lewis: Is Mercedes plan a go?

Toto: I’m working in it, I’ll get her to cave in soon.

fan1: y/n slayed

zendaya: my beauty, it will never get old getting styled by you - a true legend 🫶🏼❤️

-> y/user: STOP! You rocked it! 🍒

You walked along the red carpet Toto on your arm as you smiled for the cameras.

“Y/N who are you wearing tonight?” One of the paps cheekily calls making you grin in their direction as they snap a picture.

“Myself of course!” You shot back with a massive smile on your face that had Toto’s heart soaring. It was a rare day in which you and Toto were free of the little monsters you guys called your children and you were both lapping up the time with one another.

“Looking fabulous Y/N” another shouts and you are walking down the carpet, greeting everyone who you had dressed before you meet up with Lewis.

“Hello” you smile and he pulls you into a hug.

“Looking radiant as ever” he says spinning you round making you chuckle. Lewis was quite literally a part of yours and Toto’s family at this point and so you always were acting like this.

“Now it’s time to face the crowd!” You smile before entering in for a night at the mets.

[hanichani]

hii!! could u do a skz (preferably i.n or ot8) when they have an idol!so and they reveal their relationship??

hi anon!! i tried to make this kind of as realistic as possible but at the same time i feel like jyp would never let this happen so this is what i came up with😭

Pairing: ot8 x gn!idol!reader Genre: fluff, a tiny bit angsty i guess Warnings: none that i could think of, everyone's stressing Word count: 1,3k

i hope you like it <3 (sorry it took so long)

Channie

realistically, i don’t think chan would want to reveal the relationship up until after the peak of their career if ever. i feel like he’s just too tied down by all the responsibilities he has towards the company. but i also think that out of all of the other members he would do the best at consoling you if you ever wanted to go public and he told you no. he would feel so bad but it’s just something he knows he can’t risk. and a big part of why he wouldn’t do it is that he’s afraid you’d receive hate so he’s really just trying to protect you and your career.

if the relationship ever got leaked, boy would have to do so much damage control. even if it’s accepted by everyone and actually somehow boosts your careers and only has good outcomes. mans would be out there writing apology letters like “hi, this is stray kids’ bang chan and i’m so sorry i lied to you all about my relationship.” like it’s not his private business.

Lee know

lee know would throw in little quips and hints during things like skz code and stuff. do you know how he talked about the friend he went to japan with and said he was his boyfriend? he’d do that with you as well. pretend that he’s joking and when they’re all asked about your group he’d say “yea, we hung out once. they’re actually my partner now.” and then do the little :] smile. hannie would obviously throw in a little “what about me?” and then the whole mention about your relationship goes unnoticed. but he would try to slowly get there through hints.

if this relationship ever got leaked, he’d come over that same day with the biggest smile on his face. i feel like he’d genuinely be happy and i think someday, down the line, he’d confirm it on his own by sending a not the most flattering picture of you surrounded with his cats to bubble. for which you’d scold him later. 

Changbin

i feel like changbin would really want to tell EVERYONE. like, he’s so proud to be your boyfriend and he wants to tell the world. but he knows he can’t. he would also just mention you during skz talker and stuff. i think he’d show the camera a video of you doing a dance trend or something and be like “waaah, aren’t they so talented?” meanwhile in his head he’s also adding “and they’re all mine”.

he’s happy as well when the relationship gets leaked. is even happier that it happens around the time of your new comeback because now he can do your dance challenge with you and not feel weird about it. wouldn’t address it but in his next vlog, he tells the staff not to blur you out anymore. (which i know that they don’t really post vlogs anymore BUT BINNIE’S WERE MY FAVORITE AND I MISS THEM OKAY) 

Hyunjin

feel like hyune would be STRESSED when you first bring up the idea of going public. he’d tell you that he’ll think about it but is probably the most open to it. he’d have a meeting about it with the higher ups and you would too but it would be a while before they actually allowed you to do it. 

when it does happen, i think it would just be him posting pictures from a versace event and then the last picture would be the two of you together. your back pressed against his chest, his hand placed over your stomach and your hand reaching back to hold his face while looking at each other. you’d obviously be wearing your versace outfits and the caption would be something like “thank you donatella, me and my y/n enjoyed the event so much”. safe to say stays go crazy and your fandom does as well.

Jisung

i think hannie wouldn’t be comfortable revealing it but we all know boy has a big mouth. i think he’d just leak his own relationship tbh. yk how sometimes he just speaks poems about how he’s so fond of minho? one question asked about you and he’s spilling on air. “ah y/n? yeah, i’ve never met anyone as hard working… well, except for my members. yeah, they’re just so amazing and we match so well, you know. it was honestly like out of a fairytale. i mean, um… like… you know, like the friendship?” and then chan is jumping into the conversation and changing the topic, thank god for his leader. 

he’d be terrified after but you’re there to calm him down. at some point you get asked about it in an interview and you decide to just clear it up. “did you hear what stray kids’ han said about you the other day?” the interviewer asks. “ah yeah. adorable, wasn’t he? i have to say, it really was like out of a fairytale. it might sound corny but we just clicked so well, you know.” you smile and wave into the camera, mouthing a hi baby because you just know that he’s going to watch this interview the moment it comes out. (chan is beyond stressed because of you two)

Felix

lixie would love the idea of going public but he would be too scared of the consequences i think. feel like it would be similar to hyunjin because he would want you at all of his events and at some point the fans start to be like…hmm is it a coincidence that they always appear together at the same events. but obviously that’s not enough to just assume that you’re both dating.

at some point lix accidentally sends the wrong picture to bubble and it’s a picture where you’re cuddled together in bed and you’re kissing his cheek. he meant to send the one of him alone that he took when you went to the bathroom. he’s freaked out but then he just kind of accepts it and is happy because so much pressure has just been taken off his shoulders. the next picture of the two of you that appears on bubble is sent intentionally with a bunch of light blue hearts.

Seungmin

seungmin would absolutely NOT want to reveal the relationship. he has a reputation to uphold as the grumpy one. that’s what he says but really he’s just too scared of the reactions and feedback. he doesn’t mind getting hate, he feels used to that but he doesn’t want you to receive it. he’s also worried that people would put you down for dating him out of everyone else. this leads to you both having a looong conversation where he starts sobbing at some point because he does feel insecure but he never lets himself feel those things unless it’s with you.

this in turn makes him realize that you are very important to him and now he’s even more conflicted. should he tell everyone that you’re his or should he work even harder to protect your relationship. in the end, he decides to let you make the decision. he’s happy with whatever you choose as long as you’re by his side.

Jeongin

i think innie would actually be the one to bring this up with you. after they all get their instagrams, hyunjin gets his piercing and the company lets more loose in general, he feels that it could go through. so he brings it up with jyp and gets the green light (which is not realistic at all but let’s pretend for the sake of this drabble).

i know that innie doesn’t do the ootd posts anymore but i think it would be so cute if he revealed it through that. he would post an ootd post and then on some of the pictures you’re there as well. just a power couple posing together. and then also, some of the more observing fans would notice that hey, isn’t that innie’s shirt that y/n was wearing in their new post. and hey isn’t that the same bag that y/n has in jeongin’s new post? it’d just be really cute because you’d both be so excited about it and flaunting it. 

a/n: requests are open by the way!!!

eddie munson imagine ✨🍒

We start with rockstar!Eddie Munson.

Corroded Coffin has just taken off; their debut album has reached number 1 in the charts, sold out shows across the country, massive break through.

To support the album, they're doing a press run, and now they're on the award show circuit. Enter the night in question, at an award show, where Eddie and Reader cross paths for the first time.

Maybe Eddie and Reader are aware of each other, but never had the opportunity to be in the same space at the same time? I like the idea that Eddie is very aware of Reader and her work, and has had a longtime crush on her, but because Corroded Coffin have only just made it big on the scene, he doesn't think she has any clue who he or the band are ~ this comes in to play later... Reader could be a fellow musician, actor, or someone in the entertainment industry, (dealers choice) it just has to be a career that would have her nominated for an award, and would have previously caught Eddie's attention growing up. (I'm imagining she's a film star for this specific scenario) Before the award show starts, everyone has to walk the red carpet, stopping for interviews and photo-ops, and this is where Eddie catches a glimpse of Reader for the first time that night; but because he's caught up with nerves and interviews, he talks himself out of approaching Reader to introduce himself. there will always be a chance to break away from the group at the afterparty, he reckons with himself. Red carpet formalities done, we enter the auditorium, and the show begins. The hosts make their way through each category, with some musical interludes, when we finally reach the category Reader is nominated for.

To no-one's surprise, she wins, graciously accepts her award, and makes her acceptance speech. She closes out with:

"shout out to, Donatella Versace for custom making this outfit for me; and shout out to, Eddie Munson, cause he's gunna be taking it off me tonight." locking eyes with Eddie, giving him a wink as she exits the stage. Eddie is so flustered; because despite him being apart of the biggest band in the country and having charisma out the wazoo, he's still that loveable dork from Hawkins, who was a virgin up until 12 months ago. (I don't know where I stand on the "is Eddie a Virgin" or not debate, because ofc we would all give it to him, but idk if his classmates would. I love him either way!). The Corroded Coffin boys would absolutely lose it, getting super hyped for their lead guitarist, and Eddie would be flattered, and bashful. I just love the thought that Eddie would be so taken aback by such a bold move, that he just folds.

Corroded Coffin would do a song towards the end of the show, Eddie playing with so much vigour; he's on a televised stage, going out to millions, and his crush, that he didn't realise knew he existed, just made a pass at him. dreams really do come true.

The show ends, and everyone makes their way to the afterparty, where Eddie and Reader finally get their moment to meet!

end

(this imagine is free to a good home if anyone wants to expand on it, I unfortunately am not a writer! please tag me if you do write this, or want to talk more about it <3) ~ yes this is inspired by Nicki Minaj's acceptance speech at the People's Choice Awards in 2018, don't look at me 🫣 ~

Chapter 17

Bang Chan

"Your files are secure Chris."

click click tap

"There's no way he'll be able to get through this" Seungmin's fingers were flying over his laptop keyboard in such speed, his hands were basically going invisible.

"Are you sure?" I took a sip from my glass of bourbon, the liquid burning slightly as it went down.

The room was filled with the soft hum of his computer set up and the occasional beep from the various gadgets he had around the place, it feels like I stepped into a server room instead of his penthouse.

"Are you doubting me?" Seungmin looked up, arching an eyebrow, my hands immediately went up in surrender. He narrowed his eyes at me and then looked down at his screen, his fingers flying across the keyboard again.

"I've doubled the firewalls, encrypted the sensitive data, and set up real-time monitoring. If he even tries to breach the system, we'll know."

"Well, then good" I nodded, feeling a bit of the tension ease from my shoulders. At least the digital side of things was secure. After that bastard's visit 2 days ago, I was positive it was Victor who must have tried to access our files to leak information about the launch.

Relief washed over me after Min assured about the security, I looked around at my friends gathered in the living room at his place this afternoon. If I spent another hour in my office I'd definitely lose my mind, so I made plans with Seungmin to talk about the file security and we decided to invite the guys over as well since we didn't meet after Christmas and New Year's.

"So," Hyunjin said, breaking the silence with a grin. "Someone disappeared for a long time during Mr. John's party"

The guys' eyes flickered to Hyunjin then me, I shifted in my seat taking another sip of my bourbon while having Hyunjin smirking at me without an end.

"Oooooh," Han interjected, leaning forward with a mischievous glint in his eyes. "Spill the tea, Hyunjin. What happened?"

"Nothing happened" I said defensively. The last thing I needed was for them to turn this into a grand drama. But it wasn't like they were gonna stop anyway.

Hyunjin leaned back, stretching his arms on the head of the couch. "Well, I was just chatting with Aria, you know, making polite conversation. Then Chris here comes over, looking like he's about to rip someone's head off, and next thing we know, the two of them disappeared for the rest of the night."

The room went to a chorus of oooohs, Changbin bursted laughing, slapping his knee, the sound echoing through the whole room. Sometimes his laughter was funnier than the joke itself, contagious and impossible to ignore.

"Oh man, did you get jealous? Of our Hyunjin?!" Changbin managed between laughs, wiping tears from the corners of his eyes.

"The hell? No I didn't."

Yes you did.

I kept my glass on the table with a soft thud and looked at him, "I just didn't like the way this guy," I gestured at Hyunjin, narrowing my eyes at who was supressing his laughter, "was looking at her"

Felix chuckled. "Sounds like jealousy to me. You were worried Hyunjin would sweep her off her feet with his charms."

Hyunjin closed his eyes nodding proudly. "I mean, can you blame her? I'm the Versace Prince after all."

Ever since he got crowned Versace Prince by Donatella Versace herself, it's been impossible to shut his mouth about it. Not that I blame him. I'd be crazy flattered if I were to get crowned in only a few months of modelling for them.

"I wasn't jealous." I said firmly. "I was just concerned"

Han wagged his finger at me. "Sounds like someone's got it bad. You actually care, huh?"

I sighed, shaking my head, pinching the bridge of my nose. "It's not like that. I just wanted to make sure she was okay."

"Sure, keep telling yourself that," Lee Know said with a smirk.

"But disappearing with her for the rest of the night? That's a bit more than just 'making sure she's okay.'" His fingers air quoting as he spoke.

The guys laughed, but I couldn't stop from playfully scoffing at their teasing. If I told my old self who was erratic and carefree in Europe that I am now married and my friends giving me shit, calling me out on being 'jealous', that Chris would have asked me if I was high on crack.

"We heard about the whole 'wife calling you during a meeting' thing. Bet that was a first, huh?"

My head immediately turned to Seungmin as Changbin's question remained unanswered, the guy was hiding his grinning face behind that screen, trying to avoid my glare.

Seungmin glanced up, feigning innocence. "What? It's not like it's a state secret."

I rubbed the back of my neck and cracked my knuckles, "She never calls me, so I knew something was wrong."

Felix leaned forward, his eyes sparkling with mischief. "And you rushed home like a knight in shining armor, didn't you?"

"Shut up, Felix," I glared at him. "I did what anyone would do."

"Yeah, right," Han chimed in, nudging I.N. "Our fearless leader, dropping everything for his lady. It's almost romantic."

"Almost?" I.N raised an eyebrow. "I'd say it's pretty damn romantic. Next thing we know, he'll be writing her love letters."

"Or serenading her with his guitar," Lee Know added with a smirk.

"You guys are impossible. It wasn't that dramatic." I grabbed my glass again and chugged down the remaining liquid, coughing lightly. Jack Daniel's is better.

"Sure it wasn't," Felix said, grinning. "Just admit it. You were worried."

"Not worried," I corrected, trying to maintain some dignity. "Just concerned."

"Concerned, worried, same thing," Lee Know said, waving a hand dismissively.

I took a deep breath, trying to keep my cool. "What we do in private doesn't need to be involved in our conversations."

"Right," Changbin interjected, a sly grin on his face. "Because what happens behind closed doors is where the real magic happens, isn't it?"

I rolled my eyes. "You guys have way too much time on your hands"

"Since you're the only married person among us and constantly need advice, it very much is an interesting topic," Seungmin added, glancing over the top of his laptop with a smirk.

Despite their relentless teasing, there was a warmth in their banter that reminded me why these moments felt kind of good. Friends who give you shit and still have your back, they were the best.

Hyunjin clapped me on the back getting up from his spot, “Just remember, if you ever need guidance on how to keep a lady happy, you know where to find me.”

“Thanks, but I think I’ll pass." I kept Aria happy enough— probably not in the best way, but I'd rather step on a thousand Legos than see her that close to him again.

What the fuck. Am I actually jealous?

As I leaned back on the couch, my mind swirled with thoughts. I'm beginning to hate the way I'm starting to feel around Aria. Getting too close to her will only make it harder for both of us when our...deadline reaches.

Which is in exactly seven months from now.

This was a problem. Not just because of the ticking clock on our arrangement, but because I wasn't supposed to feel this way. I shouldn't feel this way. We had a clear line drawn between us. But lately, that line was starting to blur.

I sighed, running a hand through my hair, the weight of my thoughts pressing down on me. Although at the same time, I'm starting to actually like how there's someone to go home to. Unlike last year when my mansion was empty, my housekeeper and butler spent more time there than I did.

It was unsettling how quickly I'd grown used to her laughter echoing through the hallways and her presence filling the emptiness. The way her cheeks swell when she smiles or how good she feels in my arms. And how quickly I'd come to look forward to it.

"We'll figure this out"

"And you won't. You've come this far"

Aria's words replayed in my head again, the way she reassured me. There was a warmth in her voice, a sincerity that cut through my defenses.

She believed in me, in us.

It was more than I ever expected from this arrangement.

I stared at my friends who were engrossed in their own worlds. Min's head glued to his laptop, Hyunjin, Changbin and Lee Know gaming, Felix texting and scrolling his phone while Han and I.N snacking, engaging in a conversation.

And my mind was a whirlwind of conflicting emotions. I was used to control, to having everything in its place. But Aria had a way of dismantling my rules without even trying. It was terrifying and exhilarating at the same time.

Part of me wanted to push her away, like I did with almost everyone except for my parents and my friends. To keep the distance that had always been there. But another part of me, a part I was struggling to ignore, wanted to pull her closer.

I shook my head, trying to clear the fog of confusion. This was a dangerous path. Letting my guard down, letting her in, could only end in heartache.

But as much as I tried to convince myself otherwise, I couldn't deny that she was becoming a part of my life. More than just a contract and a part I wasn't sure I wanted to let go of when the time came.

With the launch and fucking Victor trying to bring me down, my life had become a balancing act on a razor’s edge. Every decision, every move felt more critical than ever. And now, with Aria in the mix, it was getting harder to keep everything on track.

I leaned back on the couch, staring up at the ceiling of Min's living room, the sounds of my friends' laughter fading into the background. The weight of my thoughts pressed down on me, making it hard to breathe.

Seven months.

That was all the time I had to figure out if I could let go of the woman who was turning my world upside down, or if I was willing to risk everything for a chance at something real.

"Are sure you want to have your Pre-launch event in this Venue?" The sudden voice felt like a splash of cold water, snapping me out of my thoughts.

"What?" My voice got caught in my throat, I turned to see Han, standing next to me scrolling his phone without looking up.

"The venue. Are you sure you wanna have the event there?" He asked arching an eyebrow, removing his eyes from the screen.

"Yeah." I replied, trying to refocus. "This place has the right mix of elegance and exclusivity."

"Cool. I'll email you the details by tomorrow and the guest list?"

"Jane has it set. She should have sent it to you by now" I said, shifting slightly on the plush sofa. Han nodded, his fingers moving swiftly as he made a note.

My father suggested we hold a Pre-launch event to build hype and attract potential investors for the upcoming line. He always had a knack for these things, knowing just when and how to create a buzz.

He also suggested I speak with the event host he has been working with over the years but I knew better to trust Han with my event.

Just at the age of 23, Han managed to host successful events for multiple brands and had quickly built a reputation as the go-to guy for high-profile launches. His attention to detail, coupled with his ability to anticipate what would captivate an audience, made him invaluable.

"Just make sure everything is flawless. No room for errors," I reminded Han, though I knew I didn't need to. His track record spoke for itself.

"Don't worry," Han replied, his tone confident. "I've got everything under control. This is going to be the talk of the town."

I nodded at him and took a moment to look around at the guys. Seungmin, was the tech genius, which makes sense why his penthouse looks more like a micro data center rather than an actual house, who made sure my digital security was airtight and of his other clients as well.

Changbin, lounging comfortably, was the CFO of Tommy Hilfiger, his sharp mind for finance keeping budgets and investments on track. Lee Know involved shaping trends and setting new standards in luxury fashion was the Creative Director of Gucci.

Felix and Hyunjin, the dynamic duo, were renowned models for Louis Vuitton and Versace, while I.N, with his magnetic presence and social media savvy, served as a brand ambassador for Bottega Veneta.

And I, currently am COO but the future CEO of Aurelius.

As the evening sun painted the penthouse in golden hues, the excitement and anticipation among us were palpable for the Pre-launch event. I glanced at my watch, it was almost 5pm, I did kind of promise Aria I'll be home by the evening.

Since I truly suck at telling how I feel, I might as well treat Aria a bit more...nicer, for the remaining six months before we have to part ways. For some damn reason that thought made my heart clench, it was a heavily uncomfortable feeling.

With a sigh, I stood up from the plush sofa, catching the attention of my friends.

Changbin raised an eyebrow, a knowing smile playing on his lips. "Off to be the dutiful husband, Chris?"

I chuckled lightly, rolling my eyes as I straightened my shirt. "Something like that."

"She'll be coming to the party won't she?" Felix asked, sitting down on the couch holding a glass of water. Him, I.N, and Han never drink when it's not a weekend.

"Yes," I tried to keep my tone casual.

"Better watch out," Seungmin who finally laid down his laptop, gestured at Hyunjin, "Or this guy might steal her away again" said with a smirk spread across his face as he poured himself a glass of bourbon.

Hyunjin grinned mischievously. "Like I said, can you blame her? I've got irresistible charm."

The guys chuckled, and I could feel the heat rising to my face. "Don't push your luck," I said, my voice was tinged with annoyance.

"Why not? It's not like it bothers you" He let out deep chuckle, somehow that only irritated me more.

"She's my wife."

The room fell into a silence like a sudden drop in temperature, leaving the air thick and tense. The words slipped out unexpectedly, surprising even myself, the guys exchanged glances, then all their eyes fell on me as I stood their as if I was rooted into the floor.

"About time you admitted that" Lee Know chimed in, clinking his glass with Seungmin, a cocky grin playing on his lips while bringing his glass up.

"Let's not make a big deal out of it." I muttered, slipping my phone and keys into my pocket, I could feel the weight of their scrutiny, their eyes on me like lasers. 

"Too late for that," I.N's amused expression was hard to miss.

I could feel the weight of their gazes, their smirks, and the unspoken words hanging in the air. Their reactions only fueled my desire to get out of here.

"See you guys later." I grabbed the jacket off the couch and headed for the door, their laughter and teasing followed me. But I didn't bother to defend it. I didn't want to defend it.

As I made my way towards the elevator, that same unfamiliar feeling settled in my chest.

The lights flashed as I clicked the key to my Porsche, the engine roared and I swifted into the streets. The sun began descending in the horizon, painting the sky in hues of orange and yellow, the nightlife beginning to stir as I drove by.

A flower boutique caught my eye as I drove through the bustling streets, I went past it, then without thinking, I U-turned. I pulled up to the curb, parked and stepped out into the setting evening air.

I haven't stopped at a flower shop before, hell I never had a reason to buy flowers in the first place.

The bell above the shop door chimed softly as I entered. The place was surrounded by gorgeous flowers, filling the air with the sweet scent of fresh blooms. A young woman behind the counter looked up, smiling.

"Good evening. How can I help you?"

"Hello. I'm looking for tulips," I said, my voice sounding almost foreign to my ears.

"Of course," She gestured me to a vibrant display of flowers, and there they were, their petals a mix of pinks and purples sitting in delicate glass vases. I stepped closer, the sweet fragrance enveloping me.

She wrapped a neat bouquet of purple tulips delicately and tied it with a satin ribbon as I searched for my wallet.

"Someone must be very special," She commented as she finished wrapping it.

"Yeah," I replied, taking the bouquet, feeling a slight unfamiliar flutter in my chest.

"She is"

I handed a hundred dollar bill, her eyes widening slightly at the sight of it before she quickly composed herself.

"Sorry sir, we can't break a hundred."

I smiled slightly, holding out the bill. "Keep it," I said. "It's a tip." 

Her expression shifted to one of surprise, then gratitude, her cheeks flushing slightly as she accepted the bill. "Thank you," she replied, her voice sincere.

I nodded, barely acknowledging her thanks as I turned my attention back to the bouquet in my hands. The tulips were delicate, almost fragile, their colors vivid against the darkening evening outside.

I walked back to my car and placed the bouquet on the passenger seat, it's soft fragrance mixing with the scent of leather. The city lights flashed past in a blur as I drove home as the flowers rested beside me.

Once I pulled up to the driveway of my mansion, my heart began thundering in my chest like a like a drumbeat echoing through an empty hall.

I took a deep breath and got out of the car grabbing the bouquet, and walked inside, the cool evening air brushing against my skin. The house was quiet, the only sound was my footsteps on the marble floor and the door slowly closing shut behind me.

"Aria?" My voice echoed, bouncing off the walls, only the lights from first floor and the living room were on, Aria was no where to be found until she came out of the guest room holding her tablet.

"Oh Chris, Hey. You're home early."

"Yeah I was with the guys and um," A hand embarassingly went behind my neck while the other came from my back, holding the bouquet.

When the hell did I hide the bouquet behind my back?!

"I got these for you." I handed it to her, my heart racing at the speed of a runaway train.

Aria's eyes widened in surprise, and for a moment, she just stared at the flowers. Then, a soft smile spread across her face as she took the bouquet from me, her fingers brushing lightly against mine.

"Oh Chris, thank you."

I shifted uncomfortably, not used to these kind of intimate gestures. "You're welcome. I know they're your favorite."

She looked up at me, her eyes shining with genuine appreciation. "They are."

Feeling the awkwardness of the moment, I cleared my throat, it felt like I had a cactus shoved right down it. "I know that we are a bit... complicated"

Dear fucking heaven. Why was talking to my own wife so hard?

Her eyes were glued to me, then fell on the tulips, then back to me. Good God, I might explode here out of sheer discomfort. I felt like a teenager fumbling through his first confession.

"I just wanted to, you know, show that I'm, I don't know. Trying."

She smiled softly, her fingers tracing the petals of the tulips. "I can see that, and it means a lot."

I nodded, feeling a strange mix of relief and tension. "Yeah, well, don't get used to it. I'm not exactly Mr. Romantic."

She laughed gently, a sound that was both comforting and nerve-wracking. "I won't. But it's nice to see this side of you."

I ran a hand through my hair, trying to ease the tension in me. "Thanks. Don't expect too much."

She just shook her head, chuckled and walked near the vase that was on our coffee table removing the roses and putting in the tulips. Okay, since when did we have roses in the house?

And that's it?

Whatever. I didn't care. I took a deep breath and walked to her, her presence was genuinely comforting and terrifying at the same time, I started to wonder when did I get so affected by her.

She glanced up from the vase, her expression soft but curious. "Want dinner?"

A knowing worked its way onto my mouth at her question and right as she turned away figuring out my intentions, I grabbed her wrist, pulling her to me and lifted her up on my shoulder.

"CHRIS!"

"Oh yes sweetheart, I do."

Her || Charles

Main characters: Charles Leclerc x OC Genre: fanfiction, fluff  Story type: novel  Part: 12/45 Word count: 3726 Co writer: @mistrose23

Story summary: Matilde Jørgensen, the new Scuderia Ferrari team principal, faced the nerve-wracking challenge of reviving the team's fortunes and aiming for a championship. Leading a historic team as a 'newbie' and separating her work and personal opinions posed a significant challenge. The big question: is she capable to do so?

Previous chapter

Chapter 10. Unaware

"Hey," Matilde said when she entered the room next to her office. Galileo was already working behind his desk. "Do you have a minute so that we can talk?"

The young Italian nodded, knowing what this was about. "Of course."

"Do you want something to drink? I'm getting a cappuccino."

Galileo raised his eyebrows and really wanted to say something, but he thought it was best to keep his mouth shut. "No, thank you."

Matilde had to do her best to hide her grin. It was 14:00, and technically, according to the Italians, it was too late to drink a cappuccino. But she didn't care. People in this office didn't care about her, so why should she care? "Okay. I'll be back in... five?"

"Yes, absolutely."

The Dane walked to the coffee corner on the same floor and asked the barista for a cappuccino. Again, she received the side eye, but Matilde only smiled, causing the barista to make the cappuccino anyway.

A few minutes later, Matilde entered her office and called Galileo in. "How are you?"

"I'm fine," he nodded as he sat across from her. "How about you?"

Matilde pressed the corners of her mouth down, acting casual. "Fine, fine," she mumbled. "I will go straight to the point because, apparently, I have a board meeting now." She noticed the stress on Galileo's face when she said it. "How come I was unaware of the inauguration ceremony this morning?" Matilde asked and looked at Galileo. 'And the board meeting?'

The young assistant parted his lips and looked at his boss. His heartbeat became fast; he forgot to inform her about the inauguration ceremony and the board meeting. "I... I forgot, I think."

She nodded. "Thank you for being honest with me, Galileo," she said. "Look, I would be lying if I said it is okay and can happen. I need to know when these things happen, these events are very important for me, the team and for the representation of this team. You are here to support me, manage my appointments and to make sure I am aware of it." Matilde shared a warm smile, she could see how sorry he was. "For now, it happened, and there's nothing we can do about it anymore. But for the next time, double-check everything, okay?"

"I will. I am sorry," the young Italian said.

"Thank you."

Galileo got up and was about to leave the office.

"These things happen, but make sure you learn from them. Without making mistakes, you won't learn properly," she reminded him before he left.

Once he left the room, her smile dropped, and she turned around in her chair, facing the wall behind her desk. She blinked a couple of times and yawned. Being a team principal was literally being a teacher to toddlers. Matilde took a deep breath and got up, taking her laptop, notebook and coffee with her. She made her way to the meeting room, ready to be attacked and to defend herself in front of the most influential people of Ferrari.

"Hello," she said when entering the room, leaving the door open.

The big people looked already annoyed, a great start. She showed no fear and made her way to the only available seat.

"We've been waiting for you for over fifteen minutes," a woman said.

Matilde didn't remember her name, only that she looked like Donatella Versace. Matilde glanced at her, ready to say something, but she got interrupted by a knock on the door. She looked at the person, it was Mario. "Mario," Matilde smiled.

"Sorry to interrupt. Can I ask you a question?" Mario said.

"Of course. What is it?" She nodded and opened her laptop.

Sighs filled the room, causing Mario to look uncomfortable. Glances were shared; why did Mario interrupt? But a more important question was: why did someone from the night shift ask for her?

"The order that is missing, do we have an update on it yet?" Mario asked, hoping the order had arrived.

Matilde blew up her cheeks. "I have not seen a note yet, so I don't think so. I will follow it up after this meeting, you will hear from me."

The night shift manager and the team principal looked at each other; both wondering why they were present at the office. Mario squeezed his eyebrows together. "I thought you were supposed to be here at..." Mario pulled up the sleeve of his watch. "Six o'clock?"

"Well," she countered. "And what are you doing here then?" A cheeky smile came on her face.

"Mhm-mhm," Mario chuckled. "I will hear from you," he winked and walked away.

It was silent in the room again. Matilde looked around, raising her eyebrows, waiting for the meeting to start.

"What was that all about?" the same woman as earlier asked.

"If you work a shift, you are not allowed to start your next shift eleven hours after your previous shift ended. And since the night shift ended eight hours ago, we are legally forbidden to be here and work until six this afternoon," Matilde explained, reminding the board about the rules.

No one reacted to the comment. Instead, Simone started the meeting with a small introduction of why the board came together. "Firstly, do you have a reason why you were late to this board meeting, Matilde?"

Matilde looked up from her laptop and blinked a couple of times, taking a sip of her coffee. "Legally, I am not supposed to be here. My shift ended eight hours ago, which I explained a few seconds ago. I am making an exception to be here," she mentioned. "So the reason why I am late: I am still off duty."

No one seemed to find a suitable answer to her reply. Again, they were sharing looks with each other, trying to understand why she took a night shift.

"For clarification: I am taking night shifts every other week?" Matilde looked around, she thought people were aware about that. She always wrote it down in her work agenda and everyone has access to her agenda.

"Noted," Simone said and he looked at his notes. "So the reason why you were late at the inauguration ceremony is also because of the break-rule. But may I ask why you're here? You are legally not allowed to be here for four more hours, as you said so yourself."

"Exactly." Even though that wasn't the exact reason why she was late at the ceremony, she thought that was an excellent reason for this board. Galileo made a mistake, but that was something between them, and Matilde wanted to protect him from the board. "And the reason why I'm here is because I was bored at home. And I'm the team principal, I always have work to do."

The woman who spoke to her at the beginning, took over. Wasn't her name Antonia? A sly smirk appeared on her face, she was ready to attack the young team principal. "We received a message from PR about the celebrations in Miami."

Oh, here we go, Matilde thought. How did PR know about this? Who talked? Matilde nodded, accepting that she had to explain her side of the incident.

"We understand that you are delighted to celebrate your first win - as you should, but we received videos of you partying with Max Verstappen and some employees of Red Bull Racing. You have to understand that that is not great for your image."

Matilde straightened her face. This was about Max and Red Bull? She looked around, everyone looked sternly at her, like she had damaged their reputation. "Well, yes-"

"We understand you have your friends at your former team, but you cannot be seen like this." The tone of Antonia was unrelenting.

Matilde was prepared to defend herself and maintain her professionalism, but the weight of their expectations was palpable. She took a moment to generate her response. Of course, she knew the delicate balance she had to follow between maintaining relationships in the paddock and upholding Ferrari's image.

"Matilde, do you think that action was appropriate?" Simone could see Matilde was thinking about a response, but he wanted her to be faster. He was taking notes, looked up and waited for a further response. "It could be perceived as celebrating with a competitor, a rival."

"I appreciate your concern," Matilde began, her voice steady. "And I acknowledge that appearances matter. However-" Before she could elaborate further on her intentions, someone else cut in.

"Our image is important. We cannot afford to have our team principal's actions misinterpreted, especially with a rival team." The voice of the man was sharp, but impatient.

The frustration in Matilde's veins simmered just below the surface. But she maintained her composure. "As I was trying to say, we must also consider the context. I was not celebrating with Max and Red Bull Ra-"

"You have to understand that it's not just about the context."

This meeting was about interrogating Matilde, to share their criticisms without allowing her to respond fully and to defend herself. Matilde had expected a severe meeting about the team's performances, not this relentless lecture that made her feel increasingly unheard and undermined.

Matilde clenched her jaw and she took a deep breath, now her irritation began to bubble up. She didn't get the chance to explain herself, as they only seemed to be interested in one side of the story. She refused to back down on her story. "I understand the importance of our image-" she repeated, her voice tight.

But yet again, she was cut off by Simone, who seemed to have a lot of fun by irritating her. "Our team's reputation is at stake here. You may see it as a small gesture, but the public won't always perceive it that way," Simone looked at Antonia. "Antonia, you have set up a statement. Matilde, we want you to publish a statement for this incident."

Matilde squeezed her eyebrows together, and she looked around as if she was the main character of The Office. "Excuse me? Why?" Her tone was openly irritated now. "I acknowledge the importance of the team's image, but let's not lose sight of the bigger picture here. This obsession with a harmless moment is counterproductive."

"Matilde, the perception of our team matters. We need to control the narrative. A statement will help manage this situation," Antonia said.

Matilde almost groaned in frustration. They weren't listening to her, it was like they were fixated on the statement and not the reason behind it. "I understand your point, but let's not forget the context. I believe we are blowing this out of proportion. If I just may-" Her patience was wearing thin.

"You have to-"

"If you could, please let me finish," she repeated, raising her voice a little bit, demanding to have the word. "The reason why I was standing next to Max and Red Bull was because I was not invited to our own team's celebration dinner," she explained.

The board members exchanged glances, and Simone leaned back in his chair, a look of incredulity on his face. "So you decide to celebrate your win with our rival?" He repeated, as though the idea was utterly preposterous.

Matilde blinked a couple of times, looking unheard. Did they just not hear what she said? "In other words, yes," she responded. "Because I was not invited to the team's celebration dinner. And I want to clarify this: Max Verstappen is my friend, Red Bull is filled with my friends-"

"We need to address this issue promptly and professionally," Antonia chimed in, her tone critical. "Drafting a statement is the right course of action."

Matilde's frustration had reached its peak. She couldn't believe how obstinate the board was being, seemingly ignoring her explanations. Their need to release a statement was maddening. "Are you even listening to me? Why do I need to justify myself for the fact that I, the team principal, was not invited to the team's celebration dinner? It makes more sense for you to justify this situation." She felt so extremely selfish to say that she wasn't invited and that she had to be invited. Perhaps everyone disliked her and it was their plan not to invite her, and perhaps it was her expectation she had to be invited. Perhaps she was the issue.

"You are the team principal, you are a model to not only your team, but to the entire field and fanbase," Simone emotionlessly replied.

"Fine, but then make sure Leclerc is not allowed to talk to Gasly outside of work anymore, or meet with him outside of the track. And ban Sainz from golfing with Norris," Matilde shot back.

While the board was discussing the situation, the entire floor could hear their debate. Even though there was a lot of work to do, the entire floor of employees were more interested in the conversation. People gathered around, close enough to the meeting room to hear everything, but not to be seen by the board members. It had been the first time they heard Matilde speaking up like this. People doubted if she ever could get angry, but after this weekend and this discussion, they figured out Matilde could get angry very badly.

Charles and Carlos were sitting at a desk, in the engineers room, discussing some points for the sim later this afternoon. They could hear the discussion very well. Even they stopped working to follow the discussion.

"She's feisty," Charles said perplexedly. "Oh, my gosh." He covered his mouth with his hand.

"After Sunday, I didn't think she could surprise me anymore, but I didn't expect this," an engineer mentioned.

Carlos' mouth hung open, focussing on the conversation. "We have to say something, this is something between her and the board, not us."

"No, no, don't," Charles replied, raising his arm.

"But this is unacceptable. You're nosy."

"It is their problem, not ours. They shouldn't have left the door wide open," Charles shrugged. Carlos got up. "Don't," Charles said disappointingly.

Carlos shook his head, left the engineer's room and walked through the hallway. He noticed how the entire floor was standing close to the meeting room. It was serious, very serious. Charles joined him on the walk, he couldn't resist the urge to get closer to the commotion. They squeezed between the people, careful not to obstruct anyone's view.

"I can't believe they're making such a fuss about this," Charles muttered under his breath.

Carlos looked behind him, not realising Charles had followed him. He nodded in agreement. "It's absurd. They're treating her like she committed a crime." He stepped to the room, everybody collectively holding their breath. When he stood in front of the room, Matilde was in the middle of her sentence.

"I still cannot figure out how me, having a night out with my friends, bothers you the most out of that evening?" Matilde asked.

To Carlos' surprise, Matilde was still looking and speaking professionally. He knocked on the door, alerting them to his presence. "Hey, I am..." He pointed at the door.

She looked at him and held up her hand. "You can leave the door open, Carlos," she said before continuing on the same tone with the rest of her words. "Do you know what bothers me the most? Besides the board not understanding this situation, the fact that the entire team, not just a few people, but everyone, went out for dinner to celebrate the win and they did not even bother to ask me to join them on purpose."

Carlos stood speechlessly in front of the meeting room. He looked to his right, to his team, with rounded eyes. He walked back to his team. "This is serious shit," he said.

"I will not publish a statement," Matilde finished her story. "I think it will be time for us to hire an external coach or a psychologist. The way of communication has to change internally and as quickly as possible. Especially the communication between employees. That is the main issue in this team. This meeting is over. If there are any questions, don't hesitate to contact my assistant. Good afternoon, everyone."

The people in the hallway didn't know how fast they had to return to their desks. They had to pretend they hadn't been listening. Carlos ran after Charles back to the engineer's room. They jumped down on their seats. A second later, Matilde passed them. Silence fell on the entire floor and they all looked at Matilde; she showed no emotion.

"Holy shit..." Charles whispered. "That was something else," he remarked.

Carlos nodded, still impressed by Matilde's determination. His respect for her grew. "She's not one to back down, that's for sure."

The entire floor has just witnessed their 'puppy' team principal push back against the board with an intensity that was rarely seen. The engineers were buzzing with discussions about what had just transpired. It was clear that Matilde's impassioned defence had made an impact on everyone who had heard it. The board, too, was left with much to consider after her strong words. Her speech had ignited a new level of respect among the team, who now saw her in a different light. Her actions had solidified her position not just as a team principal, but as a leader who wasn't afraid to fight for the people, even against the most powerful figures within Ferrari.

Charles got up from his chair and made his way to Matilde's office. He ignored Galileo, who told him not to enter the office. After knocking, Charles swung open the door; Matilde was standing in front of the window, arms crossed, looking outside, her posture reflecting frustration and exhaustion.

"Hey..." he gently spoke.

Matilde looked over her shoulder. Once their gaze met, she showed just a smile - a smile without emotion or meaning. "Hello," she replied.

"Would you like to grab a coffee?" He pointed behind him. "There's a new coffee stand on the campus."

She considered Charles' offer for a moment. The tension from the board meeting still lingered, just like the unaware ceremony and incident from Sunday. However, she knew a short break and some fresh air would do her good. She stared at her watch and she nodded, she had some time left before her next meeting. "Yeah, sure," she replied, her smile now carrying a bit more warmth.

Charles hoped that this coffee break would provide her some rest and reset. Matilde grabbed her pass and sunglasses before they left her office. In silence they walked over the campus. Charles didn't feel the need to say anything, he wanted to make sure that Matilde could empty her mind.

As they approached the stand, Matilde scanned the new stand. She hadn't seen it before, but it looked cute. It was quite a minimalist stand, it was a stand that could go viral on Instagram for the aesthetic. Matilde was surprised to see that they served iced coffee, so she ordered that. Charles ordered a simple espresso.

"Thanks," Matilde broke the silence. They had their coffee and sat down on a small wall next to the stand. Charles looked at her, sharing a questionable look. "For... You know, this."

"Of course." He offered a supportive smile. "A small break can do miracles."

"I..." She took a deep breath. "I really appreciate it."

"Anytime." Charles looked in front of him. "And about Sunday... I didn't know what was happening. I assumed you were at the dinner, but somewhere...I don't know, somewhere where we couldn't see you."

"It's okay. It happened."

"It's not okay and it wasn't classy from our side."

"It is what it is, Charles. I hope it was miscommunication and I hope we all learn from it," she responded. Momentarily, Matilde didn't like the team, but she couldn't show it. She had to deal and work with it. "And I didn't celebrate the win with Max. People told me there wouldn't be a party because of the early flight the next day, so I wanted to get a drink at the hotel. I bumped into Gemma, my best friend. She works as a PR manager for Red Bull, and she dragged me to the restaurant. If I knew about your dinner, I obviously wouldn't have done it."

He pressed his lips into a thin line and he looked at her, it looked like she regretted everything.

"I have my friends at Red Bull. Max and I joined Red Bull at the same time, we 'grew up' together, I met my friend group there. And everyone assumes I moved to Ferrari to spy for Christian. When we see each other, we briefly talk about F1, we mostly talk about bullshit and ourselves, not about our work. I signed a million documents, they signed a million documents, why do people assume we share the team's deepest secrets?"

"You don't have to explain yourself, Matilde. I understand you." Charles knew it was better if she could just rant, let it all out, he wanted to let her know that it was safe to rant with him.

"And this morning, I got here and it was basically the same thing all over again. The ceremony thing and the board meeting I wasn't told about." Her voice cracked and she let out a loud sigh. "I'm sorry."

"Hey, it's okay," Charles replied and put his espresso next to him on the wall. He wrapped his arm around her and rubbed her arm.

Matilde leaned into the comforting gesture. Fortunately, she was wearing sunglasses. "I just want to do what's best for the team. I do what I think is the best," she admitted, her voice filled with raw emotion. "And I know this role isn't for softies, but there's just so much friction."

"Ferrari is a tough team to work with. I can't approve of what happened this week, but it's been a stressful time," he shared.

She straightened her back and dried her eyes. "Thanks." Matilde looked at him. They held each other's gaze for a few seconds. Charles shared a warm smile, Matilde couldn't help, but smile because of his smile. "God, this isn't professional. I am sorry."

Charles chuckled. "Team principal or not, you have feelings and sometimes you have to let them out. This stays between us, alright?"

"Thank you." She got up and looked around. "Let's get back to work. I have a feeling there are more wins in store for us."

Money Power Glory (Toji F. x fem reader)

Midnight Event

22:47pm

You was getting ready for the social event you was excited for, because it wasn't just any event but it was the one where all the big rich company owners had met up for fun at midnight. You had no idea why Gojo was invited, although it could have been because of his modelling career in support of their brands, despite the fact that the event was for CEO's and other important people.

You applied for a job at a company that was well suited with your degree so you was just waiting for the call or email to say you got the job. You had enough money to pay the bills and buy clothes and other shit for yourself. Since your grandma made the best decision to make a savings account even before you was born because your mother was so untrustworthy. But having a job would keep you occupied.

"Y/n are you ready yet? I'll be in the car." Satoru knocked on your bedroom door. "Okay, I'll be down in a bit." The drive was about an hour because of traffic but it would be 30 minutes if there wasn't any, you was done anyways.

You took one last look in the mirror admiring the dress you purchased. It was an all black bodycon D&G maxi dress matched with your favourite purse and heels.

Usually you would wear crocs anywhere you would go without a care in the world but today wasn't the day. Well maybe putting them in the car just in case wouldn't hurt.

Walking out the room you grabbed your crocs just near the door and made your way to the car.

You got inside and Satoru was staring at you with awe. "Damn Y/n you look sexy- Wait why do you have crocs? Don't tell me you're gonna wear them at some point."

His expression turned from impressed to concerned. "Thank you Toru. But it's just in case, I won't be wearing it I don't think. Better safe than sorry." You shrugged and Gojo just scoffed driving off.

OOO

You and Satoru got to the location and it was so beautiful, the car was in front of the entrance where the paparazzi where all waiting for the people attending. Once you and Satoru got out the car the paparazzi all 'oooed' and 'awwed' at you, but probably and most likely they were paying attention to Satoru you thought. He gave the keys to the valet.

Then that's when the flashes of the cameras blinded your eyes, maybe it was fine for Satoru but for you it felt like hell. You slid your arm onto your friend as he guided you to the entrance of the event.

"Mr Gojo, who is this beautiful woman?"

"Is that your girlfriend?"

"How did you guys meet?"

"What brand will you be walking for next?"

"What is your name woman?"

"Who are you?"

The paparazzi yelled over each other with questions you two never intended to answer.

After what felt like forever you finally made it into the extravagant building. The walls were covered in paintings, and chandeliers hung from the great white ceiling. The personnel was dressed professionally and walked like models, evidently trained for occasions such as this.

"You nervous Y/n?" Satoru asked with a smirk feeling the strength of your grip as you held onto him.

"Yes. Very." You replied receiving a chuckle from your best friend. "You know Getou is somewhere here."

You raised your eyebrow surprised. "I thought he went to England for a show?" "He did only just getting back today and coming here." You nodded wondering why you never knew he was coming here as well.

"He's saved seats for us at a table, so lets go there." "Okay." Just as you and Satoru was heading to the hall a woman in her 50's approached you guys. "Oh Satoru, it's so nice to see you!" The lady exclaimed and pulled him into a hug. "Hi Donna!" She then locked eyes with you as you awkwardly stood there. "Well who is this beautiful lady?" She pulled you into a hug and kissed your cheek. "This is Y/n my best friend, she's my plus one." "Hello Y/n, you look amazing." You smiled and thanked her. Still, you had no idea who she was.

"Oh sorry for not introducing myself any sooner, I'm Donatella Versace." That's when it clicked. How did you not realise any sooner that she was the Donna. You had no idea how to reply. "You should come model for me Y/n, what's your number?" She pulled her phone out getting ready to dial in your number. You looked at Satoru to help and he did. "Oh Donna I don't think she's-"

Well he tried.

"No one asked you to talk Gojo, put in your number darling." Donna put her phone towards you and you couldn't help but put your number in, you didn't wanna be rude.

"Thank you, I'll call you for the rest of your details." Then she walked off and you can finally breathe.

"Oh my lord, she's so stubborn." Satoru sighed. "I really just met one of the most famous fashion designers in the world and she has my number." You grinned ear to ear.

"You're not special, she has mine and Getou's." You rolled your eyes at Satoru. "Stop being a hater."

You went into the hall and found Getou at a table sitting with some other people that also looked like they could be models. Getou noticed you two and waved at yous. There was two spare seats and it was obviously meant for you and Satoru. You sat down and hugged Getou whom you haven't seen for almost two weeks.

"Hey Y/n how you been." "I've been good, I missed you." You spoke with him for a few before getting introduced to the other people at the table and they were all nice and models. You was the only one that wasn't one.

All of a sudden, there was a commotion outside, everything became twice as loud, and people began to move aside as though a very terrifying visitor had just arrived. Then, the room was overrun with bodyguards, and there was silence.

Out of all the guards, a man in his mid-30s, stood out from the others. He had dark hair, was large and tall, and was dressed entirely in black. His lips were scarred deeply on the side, and his eyes were narrow and also dark. He had an attractive look. He entered the area with a sneer on his face, asserting his superiority.

He had a sinister demeanour. Dangerously alluring.

Satoru budged your arm with a smirk. "He looks just like your type don't you think?" "Of course not." Well that was a big fat lie he was 100% your type.

The man made eye contact with you as he turned to face you, winked, and widened his grin. You thought you were going to melt away at that point from this man's attractiveness, and he acknowledged you. Even winked at you, making you want to scream loudly.

"Y/n he noticed you, I think you should go get your sugar daddy." Mei Mei the one sat opposite you suggested. "What? No way, he's way older." You argued knowing damn well you was considering her idea. "That's the whole point lovely." She said like she was plotting something.

The man sat down on a table at the back and all of his men scattered in every corner of the room. Just who was this man?

Soon the person who was hosting the event, Alexander Lacron, the CEO of one of the biggest car companies in the world came on stage. "Hello everyone, thank you for all coming here as today is a special event for us company owners. Some of yous might not be an owner of a company or have a big role in a big company, so that means you're here just because I simply like who you are. I'm glad to be hosting this event this year and I hope you guys enjoy it as much as I will. You are free to talk among yourselves, drink, eat and even share business ideas." With that the man came off stage and everyone clapped.

Then everyone got up from their seats and went to wherever they felt like being. Satoru and Getou ended up going elsewhere and so did the other models leaving you with Mei Mei. "Let's go to the bar." She got up and so did you heading in the same direction.

It had been a while since you had a drink so a few wouldn't hurt so bad. You sat down next to the tall pretty lady and just spoke and laughed about whatever came to mind.

OOO

It was about an hour into the event and you and Mei Mei were laughing your asses off talking about funny encounters. Then Mei got a phone call and said she would be right back. Five minutes passed and she still wasn't back, but then a person came and sat on the stool directly next to you. Which irked you since there were seats all along the bloody bar, it was longer than a damn limo and that person decided to sit right next to you.

"Can I buy you a drink?" A deep raspy voice asked causing you to turn your head and realise it was the attractive man that silenced everyone with his presence. "Yeah sure." He smelled great, which fit his persona far too perfectly. "Can I get two Don Julio's on the rocks." The bartender nodded and started making the drinks.

"My name is Toji Fushiguro." He said obviously wanting a name in return. "I'm Y/n L/n." Toji hummed thinking if it sounded familiar. "I've never heard of your last name before, do you own a company?" "No I'm actually here as a plus one for my friend but he's gone somewhere." The bartender served your drinks and you thanked him.

"What does you friend do?" This man was rather curious, but you didn't mind. "He's a model. What do you do?" "I own Zen'in Group." You raised your eyebrows surprised, you was talking to the richest man in the world. You swore your blood pressure was going through the sky. There was so many people with big companies here but you didn't notice until they mentioned.

"Damn, is that why you have so many guards?" "Yes and no it's more for a different reason." "What are you gonna get killed?" You joked sipping your drink. "Something like that, my family is out to kill me." Then you choked. He didn't sound like he was kidding. "I'm pretty sure everyone here knows that. Other than you." You looked around and no one was even near him scared that they would get killed if they were close to him.

"If they was here would they kill you right now?" He shook his head and sipped his drink. "Not as easy as you think to catch me darling, not in front of the public. Though they might be here watching my every move." You wanted to stop talking to this man, but at the same time you wanted to stay.

You looked around for Getou and Satoru, they were no where to be seen. "You're not gonna get killed if you're next to me." "No shit, I'm not their target." You scoffed and shook the small glass in circles making the ice clink.

You tried not to put on a frown as you sipped the remaining strong liquor. "Why did you buy me a drink?" You asked out of curiosity. "You stood out, it seems all the other people in here had set their eyes on you even I did, if I didn't buy a drink for you they would've so I beat them to it." You smiled at his remark as the effects of your excessive drinking began to set in. "I bet they would've gotten me an even more expensive drink too." Keeping your gaze on him, you spoke to him. He chuckled and shook his head.

If this man offered to get out of here you wouldn't hesitate to say yes. Toji grinned and finished his drink then turned to look at you again gazing at your lips he wondered about. "Should I take you to the bar with the most expensive drink in the world?" He asked the question and you nodded, you wasn't about to turn down such an offer from Toji.

"Let's go sweetheart." Usually you hated names like that but the way it rolled off his tongue made it sound sexy. You got up and lead the way to the exit, immediately all the men that were all over the building joined you and Toji. A car pulled up and the paparazzi tried to see who was with Toji but failed since the guards covered you up pretty well.

OOO

You got to the bar and it was completely empty, but stunning. Everywhere was covered in gold and the lights were red. "This place is beautiful isn't it?" Toji asked. "Yeah it really is, how did you find out about it?"

His ego went up as he prepared to say how, "I own it." "Oh yeah of course." You wasn't surprised, asking that question was a waste of breath. You found the bar and there was a tall man in bartending attire with a cigarette in his lips as he dried off the glasses. He spotted you and furrowed his eyebrows then looked behind you to seeing Toji. Immediately he took his cigarette and put it in the ashtray putting on a fake smile, since he was shaking in his boots.

Just how scary was Toji to people? To you he was just some hot wealthy guy.

You sat on a stall and Toji took the one next to you. "Get her a billionaire vodka and a Don Julio on the rocks." The guy paused for a slight second looked at you then Toji. "Is there a problem?" He glared, at the poor worker, getting impatient. "No sir, I apologise." The bartender started to get to work. He turned around and opened a special looking fridge and carefully brought out a diamond covered white bottle and placed it on the table. He got the shot glass out and put that in front of you as well.

Just before the guy put his hands on the bottle, Toji took the bottle and poured the clear liquid in your glass for you. "Drink it." You took the glass in your fingers and brought it to your lips drinking it like a shot. You tried not to make a sour face but it was so rich and cold, your hand covered your mouth. It was like any other vodka just in a fancy bottle and it was more sour, bitter and a little earthy.

"How is it?" Toji asked intrigued, you had to be honest, and so you was. "Horrible." Vodka was not your type of drink at all, you liked drinks that were mixed and obviously sweet like a tequila sunrise. "Yeah I would've thought so too." Toji's drink was now in front of him.

You started to feel the effects of all the drinks you had tonight run in your blood. Your first drink today was 2 pina colada's with Mei Mei and champagne from one of the servers walking around with some, then you had a Don Julio and now a vodka shot. "Do you think anyone else can get you a more expensive drink than this?" You shook your head. "How much is it?"

"Oh you don't have to worry about that darling." You searched for your phone in your purse and saw a text message from Getou asking you where you was, so you texted him back the truth. Well you tried to, because staring at the keyboard too long made it hard to type, you was still conscious of yourself and autocorrect saved your ass.

You put your phone back in your purse and sighed resting your head on your palm and looked at Toji who looked at you as he sipped his drink and set it on the table. 'God he's so handsome.' You thought smiling warmly. "Thank you beautiful." "Hm, for what?"

"You called me handsome." You put your hands over and sighed heavily. "Fuck...you wasn't meant to hear that. I was thinking out loud." He laughed at your embarrassment but found it cute. "At least I now know you think I'm handsome." "You gotta know at some point." You gazed at him.

You felt your body go warm as your eyes trailed to the open area of his chest, then his big thighs. He noticed you cross your legs and shift in your seat.

"C'mere." Toji beckoned and you went to stand up from your stool but when you looked on the floor you stopped. Everything was moving and it made you feel sick. "What's wrong?" You chuckled nervously, "M' just a bit tipsy that's all." He got up and helped you up by your waist using one finger to lift your chin. "Looking down is only gonna make you sick all over your pretty dress."

With his hand still around your waist you and him made your way to the exit of the bar.

OOO

It was 20 minutes after you got in the car with Toji and the car was on its way to your house. You was straddling his lap and his face was in your hands as you made out with him, you don't even remember how the fuck it ended up like this. One minute you were talking about random shit and the next you were sat on his lap.

"Fuck you're so sexy." His hands trailed from your tits to your ass massaging it in his big hands. Your dress was hiked up all the way to the bottom of your ass. He groaned feeling his cock harden even more every time you grinded on him, you felt bad for the driver but at the same time you didn't care. It was a big spacious car so your movement wasn't restricted.

"Mhh Toji wait." You got off him and went on your knees between his legs, Toji knew what was gonna happen and he looked forward to it. You unbuttoned his trousers and unzipped them biting your lip knowing that he was big.

The car came to a stop and you looked up confused, then realised you had arrived in front of your house. "Oh shit." Toji sighed in annoyance and you got back up. "Sir, we have arrived."

Toji wanted to ask you so bad if he could take you to a hotel, but it was late and you had to go. You got your purse and held your heels in your other hand. "I'll see you some other time, bye Toji." "Wait your num-" Just as he was about to ask for your number you shut the door on him. You would've waited to hear what he said but you really needed to pee.

The car drove off and you was banging on the door to get one of the boys to open the door. Getting your keys out the bag would've made you piss yourself from frustration. Your legs were tightly crossed and your fist was hurting from banging so hard. The door swung open showing a tired and very pissed off Satoru. Instead of stopping your fist it hit Satoru on the head and when you realised the door was open you pushed past him and ran to the closest bathroom.

"What the fuck Y/n? What happened to calling me or having a key?" He yelled rubbing his sore head. "Sorry I really needed to pee."

OOO

05:27am

You laid in bed after having a shower and the tiredness started to hit like a train so bad you couldn't even bother to turn the lights off and just fell asleep in an awkward position.

'Andrew Scott is busy. After wrapping up four full-length films this year, the Irish actor is now devoting the rest of his time and his energy to the stage. When he picks up the phone, his voice is almost whispery. He pauses to sip from a glass of water every couple of minutes. “I'm doing a play here in New York,” he says. “So I have to protect the old voice, as you can probably hear. I've been living here for two months, and I'm going to be here for another two.”

But tonight, Scott's taking a brief break from Broadway. While most guys would use a rare day off like this to sleep in until noon or binge an entire TV show, he's heading to the Met Gala 2025 – and he's wearing one of Hollywood's favourite labels: Giuliva Heritage.

“It's really lovely to work with them again,” he says. “I just think they're so playful, and I think that's what the Met Ball this year is asking of people. I'm wearing a lot of colour, you know, which I love. I think they're a brand that people know about, but you get a kind of intimate feel when you're working with them, which I really, really like.”

Custom-made by the Italian house, the All of Us Strangers star went for a classic three-piece suit, reimagined in contrasting colours and textures. It's inspired by legendary Harlem designer Dapper Dan, famously known as the ‘king of knock-offs’ for reworking luxury goods into bold, custom pieces for hip-hop royalty. “I love, love, love playing with colours,” says Scott (you can tell he's very excited about it, but he's trying hard not to over-exert himself). “It just feels really fun. It also feels like a really nice opportunity to contrast that with jewellery. I'm wearing an absolutely extraordinary ring by Harwell Godfrey that feels very Dandy-ish, and my mum's ring, of course.”

It's a dramatic shift from his 2024 Gala outfit. Around this time last year, the Dublin-born actor pulled up at the Met in all-black Versace: a sleeveless blazer, a studded belt, and flared trousers. Basically, he dressed like the kind of guy that you wouldn't want your parents to meet. When I brought this up, Scott laughs quietly. “I remember getting loads of photos with Donatella [Versace] and Jude [Law]. She was so incredibly generous to me, and Jude is just the loveliest person.

“Last year was my first time [at the Met], so it was very overwhelming for me and I didn't know what to expect. But they both were so lovely, and it ended up being a really fun night. So this year, I have a better understanding of everything, although I'll probably just be going straight to bed after so I can take care of my voice for the play.”

So, how does Scott manage to balance everything without burning out? Between the films and his one-man adaptation of Anton Chekhov's Uncle Vanya, he's even managed to fit in a music video for Sam Fender's ‘People Watching’. “Well, that's such a good question, because, if I'm honest, I feel pretty exhausted,” he admits. “My sort of thing is to try and do other things as well. I think people obviously recommend, you know, resting as much as you can. But also, when you finish a show in the night time, it's very hard with the adrenaline and everything to go home immediately.

“As a wise person who works in the industry once said to me, people who finish work at six o'clock don't go to bed at seven o'clock. So you do need some time to wind down. For me, it's nice to socialise with people. New York is a friendly town. I've got some great friends here. And also, of course, I get a lot of visitors from Ireland and England. So that's what I've been doing with my time.”

After a particularly serious film, a heavy play, or a big red carpet event like the Met Gala, is Andrew Scott the kind of person to curl up on the couch and whack on a comfort movie? Not quite. “When people watch the same thing 16 times, I always find that really weird. I think the world is divided into two types of people: those who love to watch things and loads and loads of times, and those who go, ‘Oh, look, I've seen this. Why would I watch it again?’ I think I'm kind of one of those people.” He pauses, thinks for a moment, then adds, “Oh, I always want to watch Bridesmaids, though. If Bridesmaids is on TV, I'll always watch that no matter what.”'

MILAN ROYALS: Versace Meets Mafia Family

Korea's Mafia Princess, Florentina catches the eye of a powerful brand.

March 08, 2025 (6:15PM)

It felt good for our girl Flora to be back home. She only gets to visit Italy if a fashion show is in Milan or they just so happen to be staying there but she was rather happy when the Fendi director invited her to the Men’s Fashion Show with Bang Chan. Florentina was super thrilled to see her city in all its flaws and beauty where she represented the houses of Vivienne Westwood and Calvin Klein, gracing the targets of Fendi with such blatant exposure with time to regain their footing - though momentarily.

Fendi’s sent an outfit that was in her range of fashion. The idol would adorn a high slit wrap skirt. The ankle-length design featured draped detailing across the front and one button closure holding everything together. She styled the statement piece with a matching crop top that flashed her toned abs. She went with simple champagne stilettos, a nude Fendi Peekaboo soft bag, and clear avant-garde glasses.

But what caught the eyes of everyone was when Florentina went to visit Donatella, the Versace team had asked the mafia princess if she wanted to be apart of the Versace family. And while most people were thrilled to hear the news, Flora however wasn’t too fond. She trusted Donatella but the others… not so much. Stays saw a video posted by DAZED was Flora doing an interview at the Versace event to show her support for her member Hyunjin when an older gentleman of a royal family walked up to her mid interview and recognized her instantly.

The problem was that people weren’t use to Italian customs. Usually the greeting was to kiss the cheek both sides. While Flora is use to this, Hyunjin still hasn’t quite figured out the difference so she could tell he looked a bit uncomfortable but kept going. Another video showed a gentleman walking up to Flora and grabbing her face a little bit forceful and while she was somewhat okay, Hyunjin got a bit nervous for his fellow member.

Interactions between the house's royals made their way onto nearly everyone's front pages as some stays were worried for the princess but she told them that its Italian customs and she’s use to it but not Hyunjin so she explained to him and he quickly understood. Most stays saw he was a bit confused but others saw him uncomfortable but she went live later that night and explained how he wasn’t uncomfortable but he was bit surprised.

Donatella understood the princess when she turned down the offer. Her parents were quite shocked when she turned Versace down, but they knew how sometimes business could be shady in the behind the scenes. So her mom and dad talked to the other team members of Versace and they respected the princess’s decision. Maybe in the future she would reconsider but for now she would focus on VW, CK, and Dior.

Don’t get her wrong, every business is gonna have shady things going on, but she’s been with Vivienne Westwood for over 5 years, they have never treated her wrong and Calvin Klein and Dior know to not fuck with the princess let alone her parents if they know what’s good for them.

In the meantime please send many words of praise to Florentina for achieving 70 million views for 'Blind Eyes Red' and continue to stream 'Medusa.

wren begggsssss tay to let her design her a new rep bodysuit at least once a month bc she’s tired of the same one while all the other eras get tons of pretty outfits

no see, wren was at the design meetings and the little angel was quiet as a mouse the entire time, but donatella versace was smitten at first sight when she saw the little girl dressed in the sparkliest dress imaginable just sitting at the round table with her sketchbook. she asks wren what she’s drawing, and wrenny, sweet angel, was so shy to show her but taylor had been talking about the bodysuits and so she was stretching her own vision, and those were heavy influence for what the lover bodysuits actually look like. same with the rep bodysuit made by roberto cavalli. of course they had their own design styles that were added, but at its core the bodysuits are all wren, and there was always the gold one in storage, taylor was just making everyone (including wren) wait for it lol

alex albon x fem!reader x lily muni he

in which lily and the reader forget themselves for a night, resulting in a hot mess of cheating and homewrecker allegations — part three

warnings: throuple, toxic twitter environment, sexual content, cheating rumours mentioned, alex is a dick (kinda)

other parts: one two four

treats to you! — adventures of a nasty woman

written by Camille Fanning

welcome back readership, today i'm dishing you a solid article of y/n l/n, the muse of donatella versace who came a long way to be where she's now — a well respected supermodel who's living the so called it-girl lifestyle.

coming up as the daughter of a middle class man and a mother that had wished for herself to be a model, little y/n didn't get to fulfil her own goals and dreams. in an interview with vogue the supermodel sat down and talked about her childhood, which consisted of model castings and school but also doing stupid things with her best friend lily muni he (golfer), nothing more and nothing less. in school breaks her mother would drive hours in the family car to big cities, the spots of model agencies, where the then fifteen years old girl got noticed by versace.

but why am I writing about a model, you probably wonder. what makes l/n different from all the others?

well, y/n is unapologetically real, she keeps to herself and uses her fame for good things like donating money to all kinds of charities, promots blood donating every few months by posting a picture of herself doing exactly that, and there's another thing: she thirst tweets. At the beginning of doing so, she got harsh criticism (still does) and people thought she stopped the tweets but after a while y/n tweeted nasty again, announcing that she had broken up with her boyfriend who to this day remains unknown — so since then we do know that y/n won't post sexual tweets whilst being in a relationship.

But lately rumour has it that she's off the market and has two lovers, which I hardly believe. I've seen the paparazzi pictures of lily he and y/n herself, making out in the streets two days ahead of he's golf tournament. this leaves me in wonder — they're childhood friends, and now they've kissed on another as if their lives depends on it; the pictures tell me that they probably have done that before.

However, what's happing now? The golfer is (or i might as well use the past tense now) in a committed relationship with formula one driver alex albon. did the couple break up beforehand or has the woman cheated on him?

As the authorities interrogate Mary Ann and Ronnie, Marilyn grapples with the fact that he has gone unpunished. At the same time, Cunanan's friend Elizabeth Cote appeals to him in a television interview, David Madson's father insists his son is a victim, and Modesto uses Cunanan's story in an attempt to get attention after Cunanan calls him in a plea for help. On July 22, 1997, as Versace is buried in his family vault near Lake Como, Italy, Donatella tells Antonio he cannot stay in the house. The next morning, the authorities corner Cunanan, and he shoots himself in the mouth.

daniel ricciardo x actress!reader.

fc: jasmine tookes.

note: the timing is terrible

when you finally finished your interview with emma chamberlin, you saw in the corner of your eye a man looking at you, smiling from ear to ear. you didn’t recognise him but by his looks you knew he was someone important. you walked up to him and smiled back, his cheeks were red and he struggled to hold your gaze now that you were in front of him.

"hi! first time here?" you asked, waving at him, "i’m y/n l/n." he smiled again and scratched his neck. "is it that obvious? and i know, i’m kinda your biggest fan, daniel ricciardo it’s nice meeting you." he shook the hand you were giving him and gave it a gentle squeeze, you didn’t fail to notice how big his hand was and how it engulfed yours. you laughed and put your hand against your heart. "oh really? what is your favorite work of mine?" you asked him, genuinely curious. you didn’t know why but you were drawn to his energy. he looked up and thought for a second before answering. "there is too many, but i really liked you in the marauders, couldn’t think of a better actress to play dorcas." you laughed and thanked him. "to be honest, it’s not my best work." he looked at you like you just said the most out of pocket thing in the world. "excuse you? you were amazing! you perfectly portrayed dorcas and the way you showcase emotions just with your eyes is just incredible! seriously you’re one of the best actresses out there and i-…" his eyes were full of sparkles, like a kid talking about his favorite football team, he stopped himself when he saw you look at him with a huge smile. his cheeks were even redder and he couldn’t look at you anymore. "i talk to much, right? i’m so sorry, i do that a lot." you brushed him off and patted his shoulder. "daniel, you’re adorable." he smiled fondly but before he could speak again, your agent came to you. "we have to go y/n, donatella is waiting for you." you nodded and waved at daniel. "it was great meeting you daniel, i hope to see you again soon!" he watched you leave and couldn’t wipe off the smile on his face, he knew how good looking you were but seeing you and talking to you in real life was different. from that small interaction only, daniel knew how much he was infatuated with you.
