Summary | falling in love with your best friend can be rough, especially when you’ve been through all sorts of phases together; every hobby; every god-awful haircut; and every time you had to painfully pretend you weren’t just a little upset when they formed crushes on classmates. But at that age, everyone's worlds seem so small and fragile, especially when growing up with the Hughes brothers. Authors note | these are individual, standalone fics!! They’re part of a lil slowburn collection mainly bc all their inspo were mac miller songs, the image in the header and run along the same coming-of-age theme :) ♫ small worlds - mac miller

— ǫᴜɪɴɴ ʜᴜɢʜᴇs

➔ Feel This Way (18+)

▸ summer houses and situationships. For three years straight everyone had to watch  Quinn and y/n be more than friends but less than a couple until the curse of the lake house stirs the pot.

— ᴊᴀᴄᴋ ʜᴜɢʜᴇs

�� Need You ‘Round (18+)

▸  how does one guy go from wanting everything to do with someone to nothing at all? Jack didn’t know what he wanted until he started losing to Trevor, but maybe that was a good thing.

— ʟᴜᴋᴇ ʜᴜɢʜᴇs

➔ Waitin’ On You (18+)

▸ if y/n knew how their friendship would play out, she would’ve never spoken to Luke in the first place. Now she finds herself in a game of cat and mouse except she’s ready to surrender. But he’s not.

Kisses Galore

Headcon

NHL players x Latina!reader

Synop: reader teases her s/o as she annoyingly places millions of kisses without taking it any further.

Prompt inspo: check out @/hanjibug’s work the inspiration for this work.

a/n: just cute light hearted fun 🫶

Jack Hughes

- you two are just chilling on the couch watching the tv and you suddenly surprise him.

- he’s like, :0, because you never done this before but he’s not complaining!

- he immediately smiles at the attention he’s getting and starts to laugh at you smothering him in kisses.

- he tries to watch the tv but he’s totally distracted by your sweet sayings, praising him for being the perfect boyfriend, making him flustered.

- he dismisses the tv at whole and tries to catch your lips with his (you have been deliberately missing his lips) but you guide his head away and kiss everywhere around them.

- he makes a ‘hm’ noise as you keep avoiding his lips. He puts his hand around your hip slowly inching lower to pull you closer but you move his hand away making him groan, muahaha.

Quinn Hughes

- like his brother he starts to giggle immediately. He’s not used to this affection and he’s face turns tomato red and he’s starts to feel warm under his hoodie.

- you keep at it until he’s like, “pause”, he takes off his hoodie and tries to kiss you first but you gently push his shoulders away leaving him confused as hell.

- but you pull him in again rapidly kissing him everywhere squishing his face. He enjoys it but is still confused.

- he just sits there being smothered in affection with his lips puckered out but so perplexed as to why you won’t let him kiss you lmao

Nico Hischier

- the guy finds anything you do adorable, so when you do this he’s like oh hell yeah.

- as you tease him the whole day with these surge of kisses and not a slow and genuine one he gets frustrated and bit overstimulated lmao.

- he longs for a sensual kiss so he holds your head steady and says, chill, and you chuckle at him losing it.

- but you yank your head out of his grasp and continue to kiss him to which he yells, yah! enough!

- he’s frustrated out of his mind and not going to lie his face and lips feeling a bit raw (poor guy lol)

Elias Pettersson

- he found it cute for the first minute and half and got annoyed real quick lol.

- he’s like if you’re not gonna kiss me for real don’t kiss me at all. He even turns his head from you, making you upset!

- wow I guess you don’t love my kisses anymore, you say to get a rise out of him and he just rolls his eyes and he shakes his head.

- you cuddle up next to him, making him side eye at you. You lay there for a moment before you try to sneak attack him again and he’s like nope! Jumping out his seat with his arms crossed.

- you promise to him that you’ll stop and he’s like hm, ok.

- you stop your kisses entirely, the quick and real ones. Both of you sat in the living room in your respective seats and not even a minute goes by where he whispers I didn’t say you should stop completely.

- you roll your eyes this time. Reaching over and finally kissing him like he wanted.

- you’re such a big baby, you say.

Adam Fantilli

- he could suffocate from your kisses and he would say thank you.

- he felt his body turn into putty as you kissed his nose, forehead, beard, neck, etc.

- his cheeks started to hurt from smiling as you complimented him. He even started to kiss you the exact same way.

- not expecting the reaction you wanted you stopped completely, which changed his whole mood.

- with puppy eyes he asks why’d you stop? :,( And to make the sight even more unbearable, you wore red lipstick and his face is covered in it.

- you felt incredibly guilty and continued to cover his face in lipstick. He couldn’t care less about it anyway, he just wants your lips on him again.

THE MASTERLIST JOIN THE TAGLIST HOCKEY DISCORD

As the photographer of the New Jersey Devils, you got to enjoy the training and game nights as a part of your job. A perk alongside working in the same organisation as your boyfriend. Nico, the captain of the New Jersey Devils, and yourself had been dating since you had met in 2019. You met through your brother, Jack. Which was the downside of working for the Devils; your brother was also on the team. Oh and can’t forget Luke, your youngest brother, who had moved to Newark to play on the team as well. 

After training, you and Nico went back to your apartment. He was house mates with Jack so it wasn’t unusual for him to stay with you as you didn’t live with anyone. Both of you got comfortable. You changed into your favourite lounging clothes then grabbed out some snacks. Since neither of you had work tonight, it was going to be a lazy day. The movie Batman was set up on the tv. Nico came back to the couch in just a pair of sweatpants. 

“You look cute,” Nico mutters, pressing a kiss to your lips as you two get comfy.

A giggle escapes your lips as he continues to pepper your face with kisses. He shifted you two around so you were under him. It had been a while since the two of you had some time to yourself. It soon heated up. Hands started wandering, finding exposed skin. 

“You taste like skittles,” You laugh, pulling away for a second to catch your breath. 

Nico smirks, “I could taste a little sweeter if you’d like.”

You didn’t bother replying, only kissing him once more. Nico pulled off your devils hoodie, leaving you with your comfy Bonds bra and your fluffy sleep shorts. You grin into the kiss when you feel Nico through his sweatpants. Mid tongue down your throat the door was thrown open. A door that was locked.

“Ew!” 

Luckily Nico had a quick reaction time and grabbed the throw blanket. He pulled it over you, covering your tits. “What the fuck are you two doing here?”

Your brothers, Jack and Luke, stood inside your apartment with Luke’s friends Seamus and Ethan behind them looking like deers in headlights. The only reason Jack even had a spare key was incase of emergencies. Not for random visits.

“What the fuck are you guys doing here?” You seeth. 

Luke pulled out his phone and called someone. “Yo Quinn. We just walked in on (Y/N) and Hischier making out naked on the couch.”

“We’re not naked!” You shout, hoping your twin could hear you.

“Semi naked,” Jack compromises. 

Quinn sighed on the other side of the phone. Sometimes he was glad he was alone in Vancouver with none of his siblings able to do this exact situation. “Leave them be you guys. They’ve been dating for like three years.”

Nico didn’t move from above you, hoping his hard on wouldn’t be on show through his grey sweatpants. “Can you two please leave?”

“We wanted to go out for lunch, do something on our day off.”

You groaned once more. “Why didn’t you text us instead?”

“We did,” Luke argues. “Neither of you answered.”

“Did you ever think maybe we were busy doing our own thing? You know… as a couple?”

“No.”

You huffed, pressing a kiss to Nico’s cheek and standing up from the couch. Making sure to hold the blanket to your chest. Your brothers didn’t need to see anything more than they already have. “Give us 10. But you have to leave and wait in the car.”

“Yes!”

Both of the boys raced out excitedly. It allowed Nico to finally stand up from the couch. Both of you sighed and went to your room to change into some better clothes. 

“I feel like we’re their parents,” Nico jokes.

You chuckle, “At least our kids will be better than these rascals.”

“That they will.”

an idea for whoever need it

idea inspo: GOLDEN HOUR by PENNYLANEFIC

in this idea, the pairing will be quinn hughes x reader (if y’all use the idea i wrote below plz feel free to tag me y’all)

GIF by maryleclerc

so i just finished reading this work, and came up to an idea for whoever want/need an idea to write a new fic for nhl player

imagine quinn he’s planning to propose to y/n, asking his family and friends to help set up everything (maybe like in the golden hour fic the WAGs will be taking y/n somewhere so andrei can have time to set up)

and while y/n are with the players wife & girlfriend hanging out, during the conversation y/n just talk to the WAG about how she was planning on to propose to quinn

“i couldn't wait any longer, we’ve been together for 3 and a half years now so yeah” — y/n said and shrugged then from her bag she took out an engagement ring that she has prepare for Quinn from her bag and showed it to the WAGs.

and the WAGs of course were all surprised, but they didn't want to ruined the proposal that Quinn was preparing so they all went along with her.

time past by, on the next day Quinn ask you to come to his parents house to have a dinner there so y/n agreed to come, she felt weird that everytime if they have dinner at The Hughes, Quinn will be the one drive y/n there so when this time Jack is the who drive y/n there. they both have the conversation on the car about Quinn, about Hockey, etc

ok imagine Quinn just finished his speech, y/n say yes. and then now is her turn, after she finish her speech, she took out the ring and everyone there is so surprise and though its was so funny at the same time.

especially Quinn but in the end he said yes, and everything turn out so cute and everyone just laughing, enjoying the night.

also the proposal night will be attend with all of The Hughes family and hockey, close friends. after that everyone start to post it on their social media, its started to blow up cause the fan thought of cute they both are

i love my huggy bear 🐻

idk i kinda like it a bit goofy and silly 😂

also sorry about my lag of grammar and english but i hope you get what i mean 🤗✨💗

You are in love- L. fantilli

Summery: you and Luca find your way to each others hearts

Luca Fantilli x Hughes!reader

Warnings?: kissing

Got the inspo for this listening to “You are in love” by T swift so a little inspired by that!

—

You and Luca met when Luke had introduced you two at the beginning of the season, you had heard a little about him from Mackie and Duker but still had yet to meet the boy and his brother. “Hi I’m Luca” he said and you couldn’t help but just look at him for a moment, the floppy brown hair and big smile was doing something to you and you felt yourself blushing for absolute no reason. “I’m Y/n Luke’s twin sister” you said shaking the hand he had held out.

You got introduced to Adam as well but they were soon being pulled away by the rest of the boys into the living room of the sophomore house to watch a football game. “What was that?” Your twin asked, “what was what?” You replied a little confused. “Your blushing, Is there something I don’t know about” and here came the overprotective brother, “What? No Luke I just met him” you said feeling a little embarrassed that he caught your blush. He stared at you a little longer before pulling you into him and pulling you into the living room with everyone.

—

Over the next few months you and Luca got to know one another pretty good, and by December half of your friends were convinced you two were secretly dating. He was currently laying on your bed while you packed your bag to go home for the holidays, with Luke and Adam being away at worlds you two were together all the time.

“Do you really have to go home?” He asked with a pout and puppy dog eyes. “Yes Lu” you said with a laugh, “Lukes already not going to be home and Quinn isn’t sure if he’s gonna be able to come home because of the weather in Vancouver, I think my mom might have a heart attack if me or Jack don’t come home” you said. “Why aren’t you going back home again?” You asked. “It’s just a lot and mom said weather has been horrible she doesn’t even know if planes have been taking off” he said.

You felt bad for Luca, him and Adam never really being far apart from each other especially during the holidays you knew this was hard for him.

For you however this wasn’t your first time at the rodeo, pretty used to your siblings not being home for holidays and being far apart. “You could always come home with me if you’d like” you said, your mom had invited him as soon as she found out he wasn’t going home.

“I already told you I appreciate your mom offering but I don’t want to impose on your guys Christmas” he said. You put the hoodie in your hands down and put them on your hips, “Don’t give me the mom look, I’m not coming home with you that’s your family time Y/n” he said.

“Cmon Luca, please? You won’t be imposing and I’m pretty sure my mom got you gifts already” you told him. “Y/n! I told you to tell her not to do that” he replied. “She wants you there to…do you want me to beg? Because I will” you told him, “y/n no-“ he said getting cut of by a laugh as you got on your knees and started begging in a British accent. “Okay, okay I’ll come home with you” he said between laughs, “Yay! My moms gonna be so excited” you said jumping up and attacking him in a hug.

—

Christmas went great, Quinn made it in, Jack had already been home for a few days before you got there, and you were correct your mom had gotten Luca a large amount of gifts that made him blush and tell her he didn’t deserve any of them. Your brothers had interrogated him the second they seen him come in with you, they knew who he was of course they tried to pay as much attention to Michigan hockey as they could. But didn’t change the fact that they wanted to know why he was coming home with their baby sister.

Your mom and dad loved him but they also wanted to know what the deal with the two of you was. You knew you had feelings for Luca but you didn’t know if he felt the same, you guys were together all the time, sat next to each other everywhere, knew each others orders at, he always had a hand lingering on your lower back, and he had recently got you to start wearing his jersey to games.

Today was New Year’s Eve meaning your parents were going to host their annual party and you had one thing in mind, going into the new year with a boyfriend. Tonight you were telling Luca how you felt and there was nothing that could stop you.

You hadn’t seen each other for most of the day as your brothers had him on the frozen pond all day while you helped your mom cook. But as the evening rolled around you finally caught him coming out of the guest room in a nice shirt and jeans while you were coming out of your room in a black dress you ordered weeks ago. “Well who do we have here” you said scaring him slightly as he was looking down at his phone.

“Y/n!- oh you-you look incredible, beautiful actually. Is that the dress you showed me? It looks really, really good” he said blushing and not taking his eyes off you. “Thanks Lu, you don’t look to bad yourself” you said smiling at him as the two of you finally made eye contact. You stayed like that for a moment until Jack came out of his room ruining the moment, “The hell are you two weirdos just standing here in silence for?” He said walking down the stairs.

“Uh we should probably head down” you said, “yeah right, let’s go” he said extending his arm out to you so you could hook your arm through it. As the night went on you didn’t see a whole lot of each other, you being pulled in every direction by family members and your parents friends wanting to know how you were but as you finally got a moment to breathe you noticed the time 11:50. Shit you only had ten minutes till midnight and to find Luca and tell him how you felt.

Lucky for you he was right in the couch in the living room, you leaned down over the back of the couch and asked him to come with you for a moment, he quickly did with no hesitation. You lead grabbed your coats off the rack by the door and lead him on the front porch with you. “Everything okay?” He asked worried that you pulled him outside in the middle of family event. “I’m gonna tell you something, and it’s okay if you don’t agree with me but I have to tell you” you said playing with your fingers.

“Y/n your scaring me a little, is everything okay?” He said slightly grabbing your chin and making you look at him. “Everythings fine I-I’m..I have something to tell you”

“Okay..”he said, he was hoping you were about to tell him what he really wanted to hear. “Luca..I’m in love with you, have been for a little while now. Your the sweetest person I’ve ever met, you’ve been treating me so good these past few months and your not even mine. You walk me to classes if you can, text me goodnight and good morning , my family absolutely loves you, and I’ve never felt this way before” you finally let out.

Luca didn’t know what to say, he had so many emotions running through his head right now. He’d been in love with you from the moment he shook your hand in your brothers kitchen and you felt the same. “It’s okay if you-’’ you started but he cut you off by pulling you into a kiss. As soon as your lips hit you heard “Happy new year” come from in the house and the sound of who you assume was a drunk Jack banging pots together. “Happy new year baby” he said you pulled away, “Happy new year Lu” you replied pulling him in for another kiss.

The next morning you woke up in your boys arms and a text from your mom that held a video, as you opened it you seen it was the ring doorbell recording of Luca pulling you in for a kiss and it had captured your little moment for all of time. You smiled even harder at her message

I’ve spent your whole life hoping you found someone to love you right, and from the looks of it you two angels are in love🤍

Cigarette daydreams with huggy bear!

added a keep reading link bc it got a little nsfw (nothing explicit)

So sweet with a mean streak / Nearly brought me to my knees

Quinn knew he was done for the moment you walked into Brock’s apartment, smile wide and demeanor happy. You looked so effortlessly beautiful, sweeping Elias in for a hug and swiping the drink Jake was offering you with a chuckle. 

And then your gaze settled on him, the hint of mischief behind your eyes causing him to fall for you all over again. 

“Hey, Huggy, missed you last night.” You told him, coy smile on your face as you pulled him on for a hug that was just slightly less friendly than the one you had given Elias. Quinn knew what you were hinting at, that you didn’t miss him in the way you missed Brock or Troy or any of the other guys that had been in Calgary for a game that night. You missed him in a way that led to pictures of you showing him just how much you missed him—in bed, alone, and wearing nothing. 

Quinn knew he was in trouble when he remembered the way you sounded when he called you approximately thirty seconds after he got the pictures and suddenly his pants were just a tad too tight. 

And then you were off, bouncing away to greet Thatcher and leaving Quinn standing by himself in the kitchen with a blush and the memory of what it felt to have you in his life, if only for one night. It was that feeling that had him slipping his phone out of his pocket and typing a text before he could really stop and think about what he was doing. Phone sex was one thing, but with both of you in Vancouver and at Brock’s party he was extending an invitation to start something else. 

Across the party, your phone buzzed. Only on the outskirts of whatever conversation a few of the other girls were having, you pulled your phone out of your pocket. Reading the message Quinn sent you, you bit your lip to hide the wicked grin you would certainly be wearing. 

I’m leaving in 45 minutes. Are you coming with?

You knew what your response would be before you even finished reading the text. Typing quickly, you hit send and glance to where Quinn was still leaning against the counter by himself, watching you with a look in his eyes that left little room for anything other than lust. 

Make it thirty minutes and you have a deal.

[lukeevangelista]

idk if you’ve already written something like this but i got inspo from the pic of quinn at demko’s wedding

just imagine it’s time for the bride to throw the bouquet and reader catches it. reader kinda just stands there not knowing what to do bc their relationship with quinn is fairly new. so then after the wedding and they both get home, the two talk about their future together and whatnot

I haven’t but I adore this.

———————-

Lex turned around, her bouquet above her head as she went to throw it- the other girls jumping to get it as it went over their heads and straight to you.

Quinn and the other goes were watching from across the room as Brock nudged him jokingly, “Looks like you’re getting married soon Huggy.”

You stood there, not really knowing how to react as you twiddled with the ribbon on the beautiful arrangement.

Your eyes met Quinn’s, a blush covering your cheeks as you handed to bouquet back to Lex, thinking she would like it back as you muttered an apology.

“Let’s go.” You whispered as you crossed the room to him, the festivities coming to an end anyways.

You both felt the awkward tension as you two stood there a couple more minutes, bidding goodbyes to everyone before Quinn’s hand found the lower portion on your back, guiding you to the door.

“I’m sorry if I embarrassed you.” You admitted as he walked you to the passenger door, him opening it.

“You didn’t.” He said as he shut the door, walking around to get into the drivers seat, “I was just shocked I guess.”

The car ride was quiet, but comfortable as you two passed through the streets of San Diego, finding the hotel you two were staying in fairly quickly.

“Can we talk?” Quinn chose to address the elephant in the room.

“About what?” You asked, trying to keep your emotions under control.

“You know exactly what babe.” He said as he sat on the bed, patting the bed beside him, “I know you saw my face.”

“I didn-“

“You did. I saw how your face dropped when you looked me. I promise, it’s not that I don’t love you. We’re just young and this is new, but one day, i would love to have a ring on that finger,” he spoke as he rubbed his thumb over your left hand ring finger, “you last name the same as mine and our kids calling you mama.”

“You…” you stuttered, “you just told me you loved me.”

“Because I do Y/N.”

“I love you more Quinn Hughes.”

[leafsbabe]

can i call you tonight + quinn 🥺

So can I call you tonight? / I'm trying to make up my mind / Just how I feel / Could you tell me what's real? / I hear your voice on the phone / Now I'm no longer alone

“Quinn, it’s late.” You sighed into the receiver the moment you picked up. You were exhausted, from a day at work and from weeks of playing cat and mouse with him.

“I know, I just—I needed to hear your voice.” He mimicked your tone. You didn't reply, and instead busied yourself by climbing under the covers of your bed. There was an ache in your chest, having Quinn on the line. You had told him days ago that you loved him. That you needed more than a friendship from him, and if he couldn’t give you that, then fine, but you needed to know.

Except, days had passed and he'd yet to give you a straight answer. 

“I just needed to hear your voice.” He repeated, the words hitting you deep in your chest. There was a crack to his voice that had you stiffening, and suddenly your mattress felt like concrete and the comforter pulled your chin was suffocating. 

“I’m here, Quinn.” You hated how easily the words fell past your lips, but they did and you meant every bit of it. “What do you need?”
