#let rami and Joe be friends ffs
sweet-symphony0 · 4 years
Note
I know it doesn’t matter really at this point but how close were Joe and Rami during the Pacific/pre Borhap years? Cause they made it seem like they were best friends from the start during borhap promo but there’s interviews from back during the Pacific era where they both said they weren’t close until the very end and then it seems like they didn’t keep in contact that much until Borhap started filming? Of course they’re best friends now but I’ve just always wondered how much they really were close before Borhap?
Okay so. I’ve heard this before, countless times, back when BoRhap came out, when it was the one year anniversary, when Joe awarded Rami and made that lovely speech at SBIFF, and now. It comes back every six months.
Why do people constantly assume just because friends don’t see each other constantly it suddenly means they’re not friends anymore? Rami and Joe were seen vacationing together in Venice last year, and Croatia this year.
I can’t speak for how close they were in the early years, but just because people don’t talk everyday or aren’t seen publicly hanging out doesn’t mention they’re not close. People don’t understand how adult friendships work. You can go years without talking to some people and your friendship will never fade. My own best friend and I go two or three months without talking because we know we’re both busy and have lives and respect each other’s privacy. We’re still close.
I fully believe Rami and Joe are those types of people, I consider them platonic soulmates, and frankly, it’s none of our business how close they are or have been in the past. They don’t have to explain their friendship to anyone, nor do they have to publicly talk about how much they love each other for their friendship to be validated. They can hang out privately, have photos on their camera rolls that we’ve never seen, and enjoy things without us speculating about it.
Just because this discourse REFUSES to die in this fandom, here are some examples of how much Rami and Joe have expressed their affection for each other:
-Rami has stated multiple times that he and Joe formed a bond on the pacific that by the time BoRhap came around, he and Joe had a short hand. Rami has said he couldn’t have done BoRhap without Joe, which is a testament to how well they work together and how close they are.
-Rami asked Joe specifically when he could’ve asked ANYONE to present him with the outstanding performance award at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival, and Joe gave such an emotional speech and we got tons of photos from that night with them being so affectionate.
-Joe said if he could work with Rami on every shoot from here on out, he would. Does that sound like a pair of friends who would fake their friendship?
-Joe posts photos of Rami and him all the time on Instagram for his birthday and just because Rami doesn’t use social media and isn’t as active as the other three doesn’t mean he’s not as close to them. It’s just that he chooses to not engage in that particular medium. They’re still best friends.
Also, honestly, friendships change, people change, we don’t know what happened, and we shouldn’t speculate. It’s rude and childish. We can appreciate what they have now and talk about how we love them, but to say that they weren’t really friends when we don’t know the full situation isn’t nice. Again, they don’t need to validate anything to people on fucking tumblr.
Sorry this was so long, I didn’t mean to rant so much, but I’m so tired of this. Let people enjoy things without criticism and let people enjoy whatever company they want without having to prove anything. It’s exhausting.

A, B, C, D, N, O, P, S, Z
Ahhh yay! So many questions! ❤️
Also lol I basically spent my day slowly writing out my answers in the notes app.
A - Ships that you currently like a lot. (They don’t have to be OTPs because not everyone has OTPs.) Friendships, pairings, threesomes, etc. are allowed.
- Hardzzello. Currently my main hyperfixation! I just love putting the two together, even with different characters they've played. I also very much like Nightangel but lol I'm also very particular about the fanfics and art that I consume regarding that ship.
B - A pairing–platonic, romantic or sexual–that you initially didn’t consider, but someone changed your mind.
- Grami. Both as a platonic ship and as a romantic ship. Like I know they're close friends and care deeply for one another, but I never seemed to think of them in a shippy way until a friend pointed it out to me and how underrated the ship is. Now it's like my eyes have been opened and now I'm noticing how soft and sweet and affectionate they are with each other!
C - A ship you have never liked and probably never will.
- R*ylo. Nope. Not for me and never will be.
D - A pairing you wish you liked but just can’t.
- Pixie/Harland/Frank. Okay here's the thing - if it had just ended slightly differently, then I would've enjoyed the ship. But the movie decided to go with that ending and it just felt so disappointing with how Pixie's character arc went.
N - Name three things you wish you saw more or in your main fandom (or a fandom of choice).
- Main fandom right now is the Queen/BoRhap fandom!
1. Definitely want more Rami in fics and art! I know people tend to focus on Gwil, Ben, and Joe because the three have been much more active in social media, (and certain other reasons). But c'mon, are you really going to leave out Rami?? The guy who brought Freddie Mercury to life in BoRhap?? That sweetheart??
2. I'm surprised that this needs to be said, but I want people to learn how to write Rami like an actual person, or at least try to base it on how he acts like in real life. Not sure if people still do this, but I used to see fics where they'd make him so unusually aggressive (bc racial biases towards black/brown men) OR they'd go the opposite route and make him super infantile and where he basically acts like a small child (bc apparently the only way they can think of to make a black/brown man not scary is to make him act and talk like a baby 🤢). Hopefully this has changed, but I'm not sure since I barely read fics by authors I don't know anymore.
Okay so this last one will be for the X-Men fandom!
3. More badass Kurt PLEASE! Enough of this uwu innocent bottom baby personality! Let him kick ass and flirt and be badass ffs!
O - Choose a song at random. Which ship or character does it remind you of?
- lol I put my music on shuffle and got Take On Me by A-ha, a song that makes me immediately think of Joe Mazzello solely based on the jumpy/funky/fun vibes of the music.
P - Invent a random AU for any fandom (we always need more ideas).
- I just suddenly remembered how my friend reminded me about the BoRhap boys' age gap by saying that when Rami was 20, Gwil and Joe were 17. Then you have Ben who was only TEN. So like can you imagine an AU where they somehow met at that age? Just Rami, Gwil, and Joe panicking because they have this whole ass child right in front of them and they know nothing about childcare!
S - Show us an example of your personal headcanon (prompts optional but encouraged)
- aaahhh okay I will admit that I don't exactly understand this question. Like, an example from where? Canon? Fanfic? Why is there a prompts optional thing? Gah um okay I'll just answer it as me saying one of my headcanons!
Personally I think that Four from 6 Underground has ADHD based on his mannerisms and the way he gestures a lot and speaks fast and also because I relate to him and I also have ADHD, so there!
Z - Just ramble about something fan-related, go go go! (Prompts optional but encouraged.)
- I've probably said this before, but I am not over the similarities/coincidences between Queen and the BoRhap boys! It's not just from their looks! Like it's even down to their astrology with their sun and moon signs. And their relationships omg!
Like how Freddie was super close to John, then you have the decade-long friendship between Rami and Joe.
Brian and Roger were friends since the beginning of Queen and even until now, then you have Gwil and Ben who bonded over the fact that they're both Brits and can relate to each other more.
Then there's John and Roger's friendship and about them bonding more being the youngest ones in the band, meanwhile Joe and Ben's friendship is just such hilarious fun.
John and Brian have this sort-of friendship/rivalry going on, likewise with how Joe and Gwil pretend to fight over Ben.
Brian and Freddie have such an underrated friendship but it's obvious how much Brian cares based on how lovingly he speaks of Freddie, and it's the same with Gwil and Rami and how sweet and openly affectionate they are with each other.
Lastly there's Freddie and Roger being platonic soulmates, and while Rami and Ben's friendship may not be as open to public eye I can't forget the sweet things Rami said about Ben and how he called Ben the "glue" that brought them all together.
Aaaand I think I've rambled enough lol 😅 I hope you at least enjoyed what I let loose!

Sucker - Ben Hardy x Reader
Synopsis: Your best friend, Ben Hardy, was cast as Roger Taylor, the drummer from Queen in one of the most anticipated movies of the year. You were always a sucker for drummers, and turns out, you always will be.
Tumblr media
Word Count: 5.6k
A/N: hi soz about this pos - i haven't proof read this bc im lazy af, sorry about this mess i haven't written ffs or one shots in literal y e a r s
i hope u enjoy i guess AHA
Your Uber rolls up the driveway to the set where they were filming ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’, the film your best friend was in. You thank the man who drove you, slid out of the backseat of the car and closed the door firmly to ensure it sealed. You walk up the drive way, large buildings fielding your view. You mention your name to the guard, hoping Ben remembered to put you on the list of visitors.
She handed you the badge with a big smile. “Enjoy your time here!”
You thank her, “Where do you go for the Bohemian Rhapsody set?”
“You turn left at the end of the street and then keep going. You’ll definitely see the sign, someone else will be able to help you there.” She points and clasps her hands together.
“Thank you again!”
You take her directions, following to the end of the street then turning left. She was right, the large sign in front of your eyes showed the four boys, with Rami Malek starring as Freddie looking towards the camera. You gaze at the photo for a few seconds, finding yourself staring at Ben. You smile as you recall the memory of finding out Ben got the part as Roger Taylor in the biopic.
*
He was fidgeting, something he only did when he was nervous.
“Ben, what’s up? Why are you shaking your leg so much?” You joke, hitting his leg with your foot. He looked up at you and smiled timidly.
“I find out whether I have a job for the next few months.” You looked at him in shock. Since when did he go for an audition? “I went when you were out with your mum for the day, you know, the spa day you so desperately needed - to help you de-stress from work?” You blush, not meaning to say those words out loud. “Why else do I have a drum kit in my living room?” He points to the obviously placed drum kit in the corner of the large living room.
“I just thought you were getting lessons.” You pout, crossing your arms with a small smile.
“I was, I was getting lessons so many times during the week, multiple times a day, hours at a time. They asked me if I could play drums, and I said ‘yes’, you know, like a liar. Since when did you not notice me being out almost every day for the past few weeks?” Ben chuckles, pulling your legs on top of his lap, rubbing your ankles. You smile slightly at the comment, but then you remembered why you didn’t notice as much as to where he goes.
“Since your ex-girlfriend told me that I don’t need to know your whereabouts every second of every day, since that was ‘her job’ to worry where you were all the damn time, as if she didn’t trust that you were out with friends and not another girl,” Emphasising the last few words while grumbling, you try to pull your legs off of his lap, he shakes his head and pulls them back. “Sorry that I care about my friends?” You exclaim sarcastically. Ben laughs and rubs your ankles again. “Plus! I thought you were out with friends all the time or helping your family.”
“It’s fine now, she’s out of my life and you’re the only girl I care about at the moment, well, except my mum-.” He gets cut off by the sound of his phone ringing, loud and clear.
He pushes your legs off from him and stands up with lightning speed, causing you to scoff with a smile.
“That’s gotta be my agent, I’ll be back!” He runs off into the kitchen with his phone. You give him a small salute, whispering to yourself ‘yes sir’. You stand up and walk over to the drum kit, seeing many drumsticks in the holder, the broken ones in the bin – probably from hitting the drums too hard or from frustration. You giggle at the thought of him throwing a drumstick in frustration, then feeling bad for throwing it and walking to pick it back up. That’s just the kind of person he is, honestly. You pictured him playing the drums, getting flushed at the idea of him slamming the sticks against the drums with desperation and vigour.
“Are you serious?” You heard Ben yell. You zip around to see him standing at the doorway to the living room with a gigantic smile on his face. “Thank you very much! I’ll see you next week!” He concludes and ends the phone call. He throws his phone to the couch and raises his hands, in accomplishment. “I got the role! I get to play Roger Taylor in the new Queen biopic!”
“You’re playing Roger Taylor?!” You scream with him, running to throw yourself into his arms, he wraps himself around you, placing a kiss on your head. You can feel his heart racing and he’s shaking. He didn’t think to mention he was playing one of the band members in your favourite band? Idiot, he is, isn’t he? He knew you loved drummers.
“Fuck yeah I am, I thought I botched the second audition! I’m so fucking excited!”
*
You saw many people running around with props and papers, people hanging onto their phones for dear life as they run from building to building. You walk slowly up to one of the entrances of the many buildings surrounding you. You look behind you, admiring how chaotic this whole scene looked but before you know it, you’re bumping into a tall man with bouncing curly hair, causing him to drop his pages on the floor.
“Fuck, I’m so sorry!” You apologise, picking up the booklet before he could even register what just happened. You glance at the booklet, seeing a name and the words ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ written in large letters. “Here’s your script.” He smiles and takes the script off of you.
“Thank you for that, sorry for bumping into you.”
“No, it was so my fault! I wasn’t looking where I was walking!” You claimed, feeling heat rise up your neck from the embarrassment. “I’m just trying to find my friend, Ben Jones? Or Hardy? Whichever one he goes by now, I guess.” You scratch your neck slightly and look up at him. He has a look of surprise on his face.
“Oh! You must be Y/N L/N, right?” You nod suspiciously. “Ben’s told us so much about you! I’m Gwilym! I play Brian May,” he gestures towards the abundance of hair on his head.
“Wow! I didn’t recognise you with the hair, oh my goodness, you really do look like Brian May when he was younger,” You ponder, he smiles and gives you a nod. “Ben’s told me about you guys on the phone!”
“Here, let me take you to Ben, I’m sure we can find where he is.” He takes your hand and pulls you into the area where they were filming. You saw the cameras, the lights and the crowds of people wearing clothes you only wished would suit you. You smile as you see Ben sitting with a man with curly hair, who you assumed to be Joe and Rami. Gwilym saw them also, yelling out to them.
“Oi, Ben, your girly friend is here!”
“What?” Ben looks up from his phone, almost sprinting out of his seat as soon as he sees you. “Y/N! I can’t believe you made it!” He hugs you tightly with a grin on his face. “You didn’t say you were visiting today?”
“I did say I would visit you some time,” You choke as he squishes the air out of your lungs. He had to move into a hotel room in the city to shoot this movie. You hadn’t seen him in 6 weeks, you’d begun to miss your best friend. It didn’t bother you as much at first, you took care of Frankie at your place, it was like a little piece of Ben was still with you, but in the form of an adorable dog. But as the time went on, you felt a little lonely without him there to bag the shit out of you.
“Yeah, but I didn’t think you could get off from work, I thought your boss wanted you to stay for longer hours.” He furrows his eyebrow.
“Well, I may or may not have chucked a sickie and need to go to the doctors after seeing you, because I had a massive migraine and couldn’t go into work today?” You smiled cheekily, he shook his head with a smirk.
“Only you would do that, L/N,” He put his hand on your shoulder, caressing it lightly, a soft smile played on his lips.
“Uh, Ben, are you going to introduce me to your little friend?” Joe walked up to you, curly hair bouncing as he walked. “I thought I was the only person in your life,” he adds dramatically.
“Joe, Rami, Gwilym, this is my best friend since we were in Primary School, Y/N,” Ben announces proudly.
You smile and give a small wave. “Hi guys,” you squeak nervously. Joe smiles and gives you a hug.
“Don’t you try to steal my Benny Boy away from me!” He laughs, pulls off from hugging you to hug Ben from the side. Ben stands there with a smile.
“He’s just joking, aren’t you, Joe?”
“Oh, yeah totally!” He fakes, when Ben looks away, he glares jokingly at you with a shake of his head. You giggle slightly and nod your head with a thumbs up. Ben looks at Joe, who acts like nothing happened. Ben pushes Joe’s head away with a laugh.
Rami walks up to you, his full Freddie gear on, even the teeth look amazing.
“Hello darling, how are you?”
“I’m great now! I’ve been stressed at work, but nothing like a day off to see my best friend at work!” He smiles at you, hearing his name yelled by the director and bids you a farewell. Gwilym and Joe follow suit after the director called them too. You smile awkwardly as you point at Ben’s hair.
“What’s with all this! It looks great on you!” you play with a few strands of the wig.
“Should I grow my hair out? Would it look this good?” he poses a little, flashing a blue steel, making you cackle out of pure happiness.
“Definitely not, the makeup and costume department are amazing here, oh my gosh! They’ve really made you into Roger, huh?” You point at the vest that shows his open and toned chest. How did you not notice this before?
“You think so? Well, Roger almost did a double take as soon as he saw me dressed as him from the 70’s.” Ben chuckles as you stare at him with your mouth wide open. “Hey, Y/N/N, you’re gonna catch flies if you keep your mouth like that.” He goes to close your mouth, you slap his arm.
“Roger fucking Taylor is here?” You whisper, trying not to draw attention to yourself.
“Yes, he is, as well as Brian May. They’re consultants for the movie,” He points out, rubbing his arm. “You really didn’t do much research, did you?” Ben chuckles and pushes you slightly.
“I’d like to surprise myself when the movie comes out,” You look down, but catching yourself staring at Ben’s chest. “And if I cry, you can’t judge me.”
“Ben! Stop talking to your little girlfriend and come back on set!” The director yells with a smile, causing Ben to look back and nod towards him.
“I gotta go back on set, you can just sit back and watch, I guess,” He smiles and runs back to the drum kit that’s at the back of the set. You see Gwil and Joe laughing to each other – looking in your direction. They grin at you and wave, you wave back meekly. Taking a few steps around the wires and poles, you get a better view of the stage.
You smile as you see Joe dressed as Deaky, Gwil as Brian and Rami as Freddie. They really did cast people who looked like the members in the 70’s, you feel as if you want to thank the casting directors for that sole reason. Your eyes fall back on Ben as Roger, you’ve got to admit, Ben’s hot as himself, but extremely hot as Roger too.
You shake your head as you hear the music in the background. ‘Fat Bottomed Girls’ – a song you loved, it made you feel good about your body – which you didn’t feel great about in the first place, a song you can dance around in just a shirt and underwear with socks on your feet in the kitchen while cooking dinner by yourself.
You hear them stop and start the song many times, getting different takes from different angles. You switch your gaze from the camera, to the director and finally landing on the boys. Ben’s slamming the drums, looking into the makeshift crowd, singing occasionally. Your breathing stopped, struggling to swallow the saliva that seemed to pool in your mouth.
Ben caught your eye, winking at you and continuing to play the drums with all his might. He looked great, amazing, perfect – sexy even. You blushed and walked away from set, wiggling your body to the sound of the music in the background. You walked outside to get some fresh air. You fanned yourself as you nodded towards the workers who were looking at you with strange stares.
After about five minutes, you went back to the set and see Ben’s eyes light up as soon as you are in his peripheral vision. He gives one final hit to the cymbal, finishing off the song and getting up in a stance where his arm is raised with his drumsticks in his hand, a legendary grin on his face. His vest lifts and shows more of his torso, you look down stop yourself from looking at him, playing with the hem of your shirt.
“Cut! Alright everybody, well done, you get an hour and a half break, use it wisely!” The director yells to the cast, pulling off the headphones, speaking to what appears to be his personal assistant. The boys walk up to you, with a girl by Rami’s side, you assume she’s Lucy.
“How was my drumming, Hun?” Ben mutters cheekily.
“It was great! Honestly, I am such a sucker for drummers.” You say with a flirty smile. He cackles and hits your shoulder with his.
“Would you like to get lunch with us?”
“Sure, why not?”
Sitting down next to Ben and Joe, Ben pulls his phone out and furrows his eyebrow. “Joe, are you fucking kidding me?” He laughs. Rami looks up from his phone, Lucy and Gwil stop talking to each other to listen.
“What happened?”
“I did nothing!” Joe exclaims.
“You took a photo of Y/N and I and posted it to your Instagram stories, you dickhead,” Ben tries to hold in his laughter as he shows you the photo. You and Ben are looking at each other, smiling and arms linked together. It says, “she took my ben away, luckily I have a ben at home :)” You cackle and put your hand over your mouth after hearing the noise come from your mouth. Embarrassed, you cover your face and let out a muffled scream.
“What the hell, Joe?” You say in between giggles and gasps.
“Hey, you two looked cute, I wanted to capture it and put it out into the world!”
“We ain’t cute, I ain’t cute,” You say, with a ‘matter of fact’ tone.
“Do you want to fight me on this, because I will,” Lucy comments, “You are freaking cute, oh my goodness! Your boyfriend must fall at your knees!”
“Oh no, I’m actually very single, and have been for a very long time.”
“For how long?” Lucy asks, genuinely curious. You look at Ben with an eyebrow raised.
“Ben, how old am I?”
“Oh, shut up, you have had many dates!”
“But I seem to scare them all off! It’s like as soon as I kind of like them, and they seem to be even slightly interested in me, they run off as soon as they meet my friends!” Ben smirks at this comment, chuckling to himself. You eye him suspiciously, “Do you have anything to do with me being single this very moment? Because when my last date met you, I went to the bathroom and he was gone when I came out!”
“I do nothing to them, I just tell them what’ll happen if they break your heart! They seem to get the point and leave,” Ben smirks, leaning back in his seat and puts his arm around your chair. You turn to him and hit his stomach. You look a little sad, Gwilym sees this and changes the subject to something that is supposed to happen on set. You keep eating, giving Gwilym a small nod to thank him. Joe pokes you slightly, you turn to him. You felt Ben move his hand to your shoulder and squeezed slightly, you put your hand on his.
“You okay? I can delete the story if you want,” he murmurs, I shake my head and give him a smile.
“No need, it’s already out there in the world, may as well deal with the consequences tomorrow.”
You’d quickly excused yourself from the set at about 7pm to get that medical certificate you needed for work, the doctor had told you to take off today and tomorrow and see how you feel after that. You’d made it back to the set before they all started to pack up and leave for the day, it was 10pm. Were you gone for that long?
Ben saw you once again and pulled you to his trailer, his wig was gone, and his costume had changed into something that was a deemed ‘appropriate’ for this century. You’d never say this out loud, but you missed the long mop of hair on his head, it did him wonders.
“You can come back to my hotel with me if you’d like, the guys and Lucy are coming back, we’re going to have a couple of drinks,” he tells me as he pulls his leather jacket over the maroon jumper he’s wearing. He grabs his bag and heads to the door, you following shortly after him.
“Uh, I guess? I mean, the doctor gave me off tomorrow as well,” You mumble as you pull your phone out to text your boss. “Where would I sleep though?”
“With me in my bed, of course, I wouldn’t invite you to sleep at my hotel to make you sleep on couch, Love,” He pulls you close and hugs you tightly, “I’m not that much of an asshole.” He smirks and kisses your forehead.
“Ben! Are we going back to your hotel? Or might we leave you with your lady friend?” Joe yells from the other side of the road, closing and locking his trailer. He laughs loudly seeing your very clear confused expression.
“Fuck off,” He laughs, “Yeah mate, I’ll meet you there!” Ben looks back to you, with a quirked eyebrow. “You ready?”
“Yeah, I think all my stuff is in here,” Quickly checking your handbag you nodded, your phone, a portable charger and your purse were all there, as well as the unnecessary pads, tampons, makeup wipes and Panadol, you can’t be too careful, can you? He nods back at you and puts his arm around you as you two walk to the car park, kissing your hair. You instantly lean into him, and you would say to him that it’s for warmth, but any excuse to get close to Ben.
You arrive at Ben’s hotel, becoming increasingly tired, just wanting to crawl up into a ball. You yawn, three times in a row, tears welling up in your eyes. You try to blink them away while sniffling. Ben looks at you with concern on your face.
“What’s wrong?” He grabs your shoulders, looking down at you with his eyebrows furrowed. He pushes your hair behind your ear, leaving his hand there.
“Oh! Nothing, I’m just really tired and when I yawn, I cry,” You laugh as the others burst through the door. Joe instantly turns to you, noticing the redness in your eyes.
“Ben! What did you do to this wonderful woman?”
“Nothing, she’s just tired,” he turns back to you, “Do you want to go to bed? We’ll try our best to be quiet.”
“No, no, it’s fine, I’ll have a few drinks and then go to bed. I’ll be fine...” You trail off, yawning once more.
“You’re going to bed and that’s final,” Ben says, turning to the group. “I’ll put her to bed, you guys get started without me.” Ben drags you to the hotel bedroom, which was down the hall from the lounging area and kitchen. He didn’t bother turning on the light, the lights from the windows were enough to see the general whereabouts of everything. He bends down to his suitcase and throws you a pair of tracksuit pants and a tank top. “Change into that, it’s comfier than what you’re wearing, Sweetheart.” He points at your outfit - leggings, a black spaghetti strap top with a forest green woollen cardigan and boots.
You blush a little at the endearment, “What are you on about? Leggings are so comfy, I can’t wear any other pants out.”
“I’d rather you not wear those to bed, you deserve to change into something fresh.”
He stands in the room still, not seeming to want to leave. You stare at him with an awkward smile. “Does that mean you’re gonna leave, or…”
“Oh yeah, sorry, I’ll be outside the door, just yell out when you’re done, Love.” You quickly change into the clothes he gave you, whipping off your shirt, taking off your bra and placing it on the floor next to the bed. The pants he gave you were a tight fit, so you just took them off and placed them back into the suitcase.
You pulled the shirt down to cover yourself, being only in his shirt and underwear, you sat cross-legged on the bed, the blanket covering your legs. You call out his name, thinking for a second that he went to his friends, but when he opened the door, you smiled. He looked down at his suitcase and saw the pants tucked back in there. He looks at you - frowning.
“They were kind of tight on me, so I didn’t wear them… You were always thinner than me, Hun,” You smile.
“So, what have you got on?”
You are glad it’s dark in his room, otherwise he would see the large blush creep onto your cheeks and over your neck. “I’m just wearing my leggings,” you lie. You never even liked to wear long pants when sleeping, even he should know that by now. “Thank you for this Ben, I’ve missed you a lot.” You smile, a yawn slowing your speech.
“I’ve missed you so much as well, Love, I’m glad we got to see each other.” He walks over to you and sits on the bed. He kisses your forehead, pushing a strand of hair behind your ear, staring intensely into your eyes. You can’t help but notice when his eyes flicker to your lips and back to your eyes that you do the seem to do the same, a light pink shading your cheeks as you notice his breathing become faster.
You tried your best to not kiss him and apparently your body heard your pleas, so to ruin the moment, you let out a huge yawn, causing you both to break contact. He lets out a nervous chuckle. “You should be going to bed, darling, you’re very tired.” He pats your cheek and stands up from the spot on the bed he was in. You nod, eyes fluttering shut as you’re still sitting up. “Love - lie down before you fall asleep,” he laughs.
“Oh yeah, that would probably help,” your head crashes down onto the pillow, almost instantly putting you to sleep. You hear keys jangle and a ripping sound, then feeling a wipe over your face. “Thanks for taking off my makeup. I’m surprised you knew they were there,” You mutter sleepily at him, he smiles down at you. Your eyes close once again while you hear a faint “I love you” come from the door, but you’re too tired to answer back.
You wake up at 3am when you roll over to the other side of the bed. Ben hadn’t occupied the other side. Your hair was all over the place and sweat covered your face and body, the blanket thrown off to the end of the bed.
You stand up, walking out of the bedroom of the hotel. Not hearing any sound come from the lounging area, you tip toe out to see Ben on his phone, watching the T.V with no noise, but with subtitles. He really did try to keep the noise minimal as possible. He must’ve sensed someone was there and whipped his head around to see you standing there, one of your hands rubbing your eyes. He let out a small chuckle at the sight of you.
“Hey there, sleeping beauty, how’d you sleep?”
You fought off saying ‘great until I felt you weren’t there when I woke up’, instead saying “It was okay, why aren’t you asleep yet?”
“Eh, I haven’t felt the need to go to bed yet,” he stretched, turning off the T.V. “Now I do though,” He stands up and looks at your legs. “You were wearing leggings, my ass,” a sarcastic tone runs through his voice. You look down and shrug.
“It got really hot in the room, I took them off at one point.” You lie again, you’d bombed as soon as you got the chance, “where is everyone? I thought you guys would’ve woken me up at some point.”
“We had a few drinks, congratulated each other on a great job on set, but everyone got tired after their 3rd or 4th drink, so they all went home. I didn’t drink though, didn’t feel the need to.”
“Oh, okay,” you mumble. Ben walks up to you, towering over you, you crane your neck to look at him. “I want to go back to bed, you coming?”
“Right behind you, Love.”
You two walk back to the bedroom, you instantly crashing onto the bed and curling up, Ben chuckles as he sees you spoon the blanket, cuddling yourself into it. Ben strips to his boxers and throws them in a direction he’ll probably regret in the morning.
He gets into the other side of the bed, almost hesitantly. He looks at the way you’re situated on the bed, admiring how you can fall asleep almost instantly, anywhere. He turns to face the way you’re facing, his arms crossing against his chest as he sees your chest rise and fall.
You stir a little bit, turning yourself over so you’re facing Ben. You open your eyes and see him staring at you, smiling as you admire the way he’s looking at you. Almost as if he’s looking at you with love and adoration in his eyes. He doesn’t seem phased with you seeing him stare at you, as if he wants you to know.
You don’t notice, but he scoots closer to you, resting his hand on your cheek. His eyes flicker to your lips and eyes, back and forth constantly. He opens his mouth and lets out a desperate sigh. “Just tell me to stop if you don’t want this,” he whispers, but you don’t.
You let his lips fall onto yours, gently and lovingly. You instantly move your lips against his, placing your legs between his as they twine together. He caresses your cheek, moving deeper and deeper into the kiss. You pull away to catch your breath, “Why’d you do that?” You ask with confusion.
“Did I completely misread the situation?” He breathes.
“I didn’t realise there was a situation to begin with, Hun,” you place your hand on his chest, feeling his heart beating faster. He chuckles slightly, placing his hand on your waist. The movement caused you to let out a jagged breath, you swallowed thickly. You look up at him with pleading eyes, “Kiss me again?”
He didn’t answer, he immediately placed his lips in between yours, sighing in delight. He pulls your waist closer to his, you throw your leg over to the other side of his, climbing onto his lap – straddling him. The movement caused you both to deepen the kiss – the kiss that made you dizzy, that made your legs weak, made your head fuzzy. What was happening and why did you want to stay like this?
Both of his hands were placed on your waist, squeezing at times to comfort your trembling knees. One of your hands were grasping his hair, the other on his chest still – you pull slightly at his hair, causing him to let out a small moan. You smile into the kiss as you begin to pull away, his lips trying to chase yours to not end the fun you two were having. He lets out an annoyed huff as you press a chaste kiss to his lips.
“What are we doing?” You laugh, slightly out of breath.
“Well, I think it’s time I told you that I love you – more than a friend and I hope that you feel the same way.” He places his hands on your thighs, rubbing up and down in a comforting way.
“That was so nonchalant – I would have been shitting myself,” You gaze at him – seeing love in his eyes, something you yearned to see from his eyes.
“Oh, I am, but I’d prefer not to show it. Especially with a gorgeous lady on my lap.”
“Well, you might be delighted to know that I actually love you too – surprisingly,” you shrug and smile.
“Well, I’m glad.”
You both had fallen asleep cuddling into each other, feeling the breaths and heartbeats of each other. By the morning, your arm was slung over his body, your leg perched into his and head on his chest – his arm under your neck and his head leaning on yours. The blinds were kept open –the natural sunlight waking the two of you up. He smiled down at you seeing you stare at his chest, your fingers tracing circles around his abs.
“Good morning, Love,” He gives you a kiss on the forehead, another on your nose and a peck on your lips. “I still have to go onto set, you want to come again?” You nod, too sleepy still to talk. He got up and before closing the door to the bedroom, he looked back to you, “I’ll let you wake up a little, I know how cranky you are in the morning – if you want a shower, just let me know. We’ll leave in an hour,” he closes the door.
You let out a small squeal as you remembered that Ben fucking Jones loves you back. You had believed the love was one sided, unrequited, unwanted. You smiled as you realise that wasn’t the case. You stood up and quickly got changed, keeping the shirt Ben gave you on. You’d thrown your hair into a messy ponytail as Ben walked in the door again, wet hair, beads of water dripping down his chest and a towel hanging low on his hips.
“I forgot my clothes - did you want a shower?” He asked, looking to you for an answer.
You’d forgotten how to talk – looking at Ben’s body, “Uh…” was all you muttered, as if you were real life buffering. You’d somehow snapped out of it, looking at him with a cherry shaded blush on your cheeks and ears. “Sorry, uh, I don’t shower in the morning, I shower at night, so I’m okay, thanks. I will need to borrow deodorant though.” You smile cheesily, “I really am a sucker for you, huh?”
“I thought it was only drummers?” A smug smile slips onto his lips.
“Oh, no, it was always you, Sweetheart,” You giggle, he walks over to you giving you quick kiss, but you wrapped your hand into his wet hair, pulling him closer. He pulled away slightly with a slightly concerned look on his face, “Do I get to call you mine now?”
“You could’ve called me yours, long ago, Jones.”
You arrived at the movie set, your hand set in Ben’s, chuckling to yourselves. Joe had seen you two walk in, immediately rushing you away from Ben. “I know why Ben kept pushing away those dates you had with those guys!” He rushes out.
“Oh really, what is it?” You say – struggling to keep from laughing. You’d realised why he didn’t let you go out with those guys last night. Ben walks up to you and wraps his arm around your waist, Joe almost goes to say something to him until he sees Ben kiss your lips.
“I’ll see you in a bit, my love, I need to get into costume, come to the makeup department when you’ve finished talking to Joe,” he smirks, kissing you one last time before walking off. Joe is pointing half heartedly with his mouth wide open.
“Well, at least you two finally sorted your fucking shit out.”

This story is inspired by liveaidfreddie story on archive of our own. ive read it weeks ago and i loved it and so here it is :)))
Word count: 1396
Pairing: Joe Mazzello x Reader, Gwilym Lee x Reader
@dancindeaky
* not my gif * 
Tumblr media
Rami, Gwilym, Joe and Ben are best friends since preschool. They trust each other more than they trust anyone else. And since they are on high school they trust each other with their love lives. Seriously. If boys didn't push on Gwil to ask YFN out he'd be still staring at her in every single class. Ben, who always dated the hottest cheerleaders was the one who pushed on him hardest.
,,Come on Gwil you can't hurt yourself that much! Go to her and ask her out!" Ben used to say while rolling his eyes.
And when they solved Gwil's problem they got another. Now it was Joe who had similar problem. And now it was on boys to help him with that.
                                                   XXX
monday 8am
,,You guys I've had the best saturday night!" Ben started as soon as everyone joined him next to his locker.
,,What's her name?" Gwil said with little chuckle.
,,Haha, funny. I actually don't know."
,,What does she look like?" Joe asked
,,Well she's a cheerleader, she's blonde, tall." Ben actually started to think.
,,You mean Gracie?" YFN asked and looked at Ben.
,,I guess."
All 5 of them started to laugh. Then it was just awkward silence.
,,Oh Y/N wait! Sorry boys I gotta go!" YFN literally ran away from lockers.
,,Damn it Joe! You gotta go ask her out on date!" Ben yelled at him.
,,Wh-what?"
,,Yeah, we've all seen how you just watched her walk down the hall. And it's not only that." Rami said calmly.
,,Rami's right! You watch her all the time in class, you're always looking forward the lunch because you may sit with her, sadly you always sit with us." Gwil continued what Rami started.
,,Oh guys come on! It's nothing! There's other million people here how do you know I watched her? Or how do you know I'm always looking at her in class?" Joe raised his eyebrows.
,,It's obvious Joe. I've been there. So go and ask her out! It's really nothing!"
,,Well that's easy for you to say, Gwil. You have girlfriend now."
,,But he had to go through that part too." Ben nodded
,,Okay maybe I'll talk to her."
                                                    XXX
,,Hey YFN, can I ask you something?" Joe said after he sat down at the lunch table.
,,You and Y/N are friends right?" YFN nodded.
,,What do you need?"
,,Well I wanna know if it's worth it to ask her out." Joe whispered.
,,Okay I'll find out how things are." YFN whispered too.
,,What are you two whispering about?" Gwil asked as he sat down with other 3 boys
,,Well, Joe wanted to know if I can find out what are his chances with Y/N."
Joe gave her really mad look. He didn't want boys to know that he's actually scared to ask her out. She saw her as the most beautiful girl in the whole world. She had many friends and he always thought that it'd be weird if popular girl dated some guy who only has 3 friends. Joe was also secretly jealous of YFN and Gwil's relationship because that's what he wanted with Y/N since he first saw her.
,,Joe you're alright?" Rami asked
,,Yeah, yeah I'm fine." He put on the fakest smile ever.
                                                   XXX
*Y/N*
Right after the lunch YFN went to look for YN. She wanted Joe to be happy because she knew what he sees in her. YN was pretty. Her y/e/c (your eye color) and her y/h/c (your hair color) hair attracted every single guy. If it was like in movies she'd be the main cheerleader and she'd date quarterback.
,,Hi Y/N! What you're doing?"
,,Um homework?" Y/N laughed a bit.
,,I wanted to ask you something." Y/F/N sat down next to her.
,,Do you know this guy, um I think his name's Joe? You know the cute one, heh."
,,Yeah, I do why?"
,,I was just wondering if you think he's, you know, pretty or something like that." Y/F/N started to feel really awkward.
,,He's really nice and sweet. And he's super cute."
,,So you like him a bit?" Y/F/N's eyes just opened a little more.
,,A bit, yeah." Y/N didnt look away from her notebook.
,,Okay fine, I-I have to go to the class. So see you there I guess!" Y/F/N left the class and immediately started looking for Gwil.
She wanted to tell him first. Gwil was the person she trusted the most and she also wanted to know how to tell Joe. But unfortunately Joe was with Gwil. They were leaning on Gwil's locker. Y/F/N slowed down a bit. At the moment she was torn between telling it to Joe right away or asking Gwil about it .
,,Oh, hey Y/F/N. Have you talked with Y/N yet?" Joe smiled.
,,Um, yeah... I did."
,,And?"
,,Well... she said... that... she thinks that you're... um cute." Y/F/N smiled back.
Joe looked really suprised. And confused at the same time.
,,I told you it'll be fine!" Gwil pushed him.
Joe started smiling even more than he was before. He was definitely planning the date in his head. Both Gwil and Y/F/N were just staring at him. This was followed by an awkward silence. Joe was just blankly looking at ground. With huge smile on his face.
,,Thank you so much!" Joe unexpectedly hugged Y/F/N and then speechless left.
                                                         XXX  
Since Y/F/N told Joe about the fact that Y/N finds him cute he couldn't  stop thinking about asking her out. He was anxious and scared she would say no. What if he'll say something dumb? What if Y/F/N made that up just to make him happy?   His head was full of what if's. He was standing in front of the mirror in boys's restroom. He was leaning on the sink. He was standing like this for couple of minutes.
,,Hi I just wanted to ask you..." Joe was getting ready to ask Y/N out ,,No, no, no that's dumb. Think, Joe, think! So I heard you liked me... What the hell? Who am I? Ben? This is crap!"
,,What is crap?" Second Joe said that Rami entered the room.
,,Um... nothing. Nothing is crap." Joe said quickly.
,,Come on dude I know something's going on."
,,Well okay. Y/F/N told me that Y/N thinks I'm cute and I wanna ask her out but I don't know how."
,,Um just ask her? I don't know either. Seriously just ask her. If it goes wrong then it goes wrong. Things like that happen all the time." Rami just shrugged his shoulders.
,,Wow, thanks man." Said Joe ironically.
,,You're welcome." Rami laughed and watched Joe leave.
                                                       XXX
Right after he talked to Rami, he went to find Y/N. He kept repeating himself that it is now or never. Maybe this is his only chance to ask her out. Maybe he'll never get chance to ask the girl of his dreams out again. Really anxious Joe found her in empty class. She was sitting on the couch in the back. Smiling down on her phone. Joe loved that smile. It was just a soft smile with little laugh. She always did that in classes, or when her friends were talking to her.
,,Hey!" Joe waved at her.
,,Hi!" She smiled back at him.
,,Can I sit down?" Y/N nodded and Joe sat next to her.
,,So... I wanted to. Um no I'm sorry." At this point Joe knew he screwed it.
,,What is it?"
,,Nothing I just... really it's nothing." Lines like you idiot kept repeating in Joe's head.
,,You sure it's nothing? You look really worried." Y/N looked at him from head to toe.
,,Yeah everything's fine." Joe smiled.
,,Well okay then. I gotta go." Y/N stood up and Joe realized that he can't just let her go.
,,Y/N wait! I have to ask something. You know I like you. A lot. And I don't want to blew this off. So I wanted to know if you'd like to go out with me?" Joe felt like a huge stone fell of his chest.
,,I like you too. And I guess I would love to go out with you." Y/N smiled and this was the happiest moment of Joe's life.
to be continued...
