can i request number 11 from the general fluff prompt with kuraly? tysm!

WINSTON AND SEAN = BESTIES

i love sean sm. ty, that's it. that's the tweet.

11. "am i your favorite?" "i like your dog a bit more than you, i won't lie." (from this prompt list)

it was safe to say that sean loved your dog. more than you was still up in the air, but he did love your little boxer, winston. and winston loved him too.

which was how you found yourselves in the arena, in the media room with winston. the jackets had invited most of the players who had dogs, and winston had been invited.

you were standing behind the cameraman, watching as she tried to get winston to look at the camera, "look over here, winston." she waved her hand and snapped, but winston was still looking away.

"over there, dude." sean pointed to the camera, trying to get him to listen too.

nothing either of them was doing was working so you thought quickly. you grabbed a toy from your bag and held it above the camera.

instantly, winston's attention was on the toy, "over here, winnie." you squeaked it and his eyes were on the toy, waiting for you to do something.

but it gave the photographer the perfect opportunity to snap the pictures of sean and winston, "good boy." you cooed, squeaking it and keeping his attention on the toy until she gave you the all-clear.

after the photo shoot, you and sean were on your way home but made a stop to get some food, "so, am i your favorite?"

"eh, i gotta say, i like your dog a bit more than you, i won't lie."

"i should get another dog, and they'll love me." you crossed your arms playfully.

"who are you kidding? they'll probably love me too." he joked.

you rolled your eyes, "i'm kidding. you're my favorite." he laughed, kissing your hand.

"uh-huh." you rolled your eyes.

in which y/n and kent hide a big secret from his teammates.

warnings; pregnancy, mention of kids, alcohol, vacation

Kent was the kind of guy who always seemed at ease, the life of the party but with a quiet confidence that drew everyone to him. You had fallen for him long ago, when the two of you were young teenagers, and now, you were his everything. This vacation with his teammates was supposed to be fun, a chance to unwind, but you had a secret - one that had been growing for months.

You were pregnant. 

Kent was ecstatic when you told him. He’d hugged you so tightly that night, whispering about the future, about how perfect everything was going to be. But now, here you both were, on this vacation with Sean Kuraly, Cole, Gavin, and Adam, and neither of you had told them. The timing wasn’t right - in fact, you guys hadn’t even told your families. Maybe they’d get suspicious, or worse, maybe they’d feel like you were holding out on them. Kent was sure they’d freak out once they knew.

But here you were, at Sean’s beach house in Cape Cod. While the rest of the boys had flown, you and Kent had decided to make the 16 hour drive from Columbus, simply to spend more time with each other before having to share a living space with the others for two weeks. Once you had arrived, though, everyone was exhausted and just wanted to spend the first night in. In fact, Adam had suggested a few card games.

There was only one problem. On top of that, Cole had suggested alcohol. You looked at Kent nervously, but he gave you a reassuring smile as Sean turned to you, “Y/N, come up with a challenge for us. Whoever loses has to buy drinks.”

This was perfect. You nodded, picking up your phone and opening a random wheel spinner. You had each of the boys pick an NBA team, but when it came to entering them onto the wheel, you entered Kent’s all four times. So, when the wheel stopped spinning, you announced the team out loud, “The Minnesota Timberwolves.”

Sean, Adam, and Cole all cheered as Kent pretended to roll his eyes, but he sneakily shot you a knowing smile before picking up his keys from the counter. The boys slapped him on the back a few times but he shook them off, gently grabbing your arm, “Since your challenge is the reason I lost, you’re coming with me.”

You playfully rolled your eyes, but immediately gave in. Adam snickered behind you as Sean and Cole let out a few cheers. Kent wrapped an arm around you and opened the door for you, gently leading you to his car. As soon as you were out of earshot, Kent spoke up softly, “You feeling okay?”

You couldn’t lie. The exhaustion was creeping in. The pregnancy was still early, and you weren’t showing much, but the morning sickness, the fatigue – it was all becoming harder to hide. Kent had noticed the change in you almost immediately, but knew that it had grown harder for you in the past couple of weeks. He was worried. He was so excited to have a little him or little you around the house soon enough, but also hated seeing how hard it was on you. On top of that, he knew that you wanted to keep it a secret for as long as you could, and he knew you’d be even more stressed if people were to find out, so he didn’t want to spill anything. 

In fact, he questioned even coming on this trip, but you had explained that you’d needed it. Whether he believed you or not, was only up for him to decide. 

He opened the car door for you and you waited to reply until he was buckled in on the other side, “Just tired,” you answered, offering him a small smile. 

He rubbed the pad of his thumb across your cheek, “Let me know if you need anything, okay?”

You nodded, offering him another small smile. The drive to the liquor store was rather quiet. Kent had put on some Frank Ocean, which you both had softly hummed along to until you pulled into the parking lot. 

Kent turned off the car and exited his side, only to appear on your side of the car a few seconds later to open the door for you. You grabbed his hand and as soon as he knew you were safely out of the car, he placed his arm on the small of your back protectively. The cool night breeze rolled in off of the ocean as you made your way through the parking lot. The distant sound of the waves crashing against the shore helped ease some of the nerves that had been building up inside of you.

“I feel like I’m gonna slip up at some point,” you admitted, resting your head against your boyfriend’s shoulder, “Cole’s just gonna keep offering me drinks and it’s gonna be suspicious if I keep saying no.”

Kent rubbed your back with the pad of his thumb, leaning down to press a kiss to the top of your head reassuringly, “You’re doing great, pretty girl. But I’ll tell you what. We’ll buy an extra pack of drinks, dump them out, and then go to the grocery store to buy some non-alcoholic alternatives that we can put in there instead. I would say we’d just buy some non-alcoholic beer here and have you drink that, but Adam’s overly observant.” he chuckled.

You nodded, shooting your boyfriend a relieved smile. You always appreciated how calm and steady he was. Even though you were both navigating this secret together, Kent always managed to make you feel like everything was under control.

When you stepped inside, the cool air-conditioning hit you immediately as the door jingled behind you. Kent headed straight for the fridge, grabbing a couple cases of beer and a bottle of whiskey that he knew Sean would like. You followed suit, selecting a case of High Noon out of the fridge. 

“Ready?” Kent asked, shooting you a smile when you replied with a yes.

As you reached the counter to pay, the cashier raised an eyebrow at you and Kent, his eyes flicking to your stomach before looking back at Kent. You shifted uncomfortably, aware that people might notice your changing body sooner rather than later. Kent caught the look too but didn’t say anything, keeping the conversation casual with the cashier as he handed over the money.

When you stepped back outside, you breathed a little easier. “Think he noticed?” you asked, half-joking.

“What an asshole,” Kent muttered, rolling his eyes playfully. 

The trip to the grocery store was pretty uneventful. Kent had gone in and picked out a sparkling water brand that you liked, along with some flavored sodas that looked fancy enough to pass as mixed drinks. On top of that, he grabbed a few more things, making sure you’d have enough variety to keep up appearances for the next few days. Once the cart was full, he checked out, the cashier giving him a friendly nod as he paid for the items.

When Kent reached the car, he opened your passenger side door. “Now comes the tricky part,” he said with a grin, opening up the package of High Noon and dumping out the drinks. He grabbed a few water bottles from his trunk before flushing out the alcohol from the cans - and thoroughly.

“I think that’s good, KJ,” you chuckled, flashing him a smile. He looked up at you and flashed you one in return.

“Gotta keep my girls safe,” he explained, ruffling your hair before opening up the bottles of sparkling water and pouring them into the clean cans with the same care, resealing them to make sure they looked untouched. Everything looked perfect - no one would suspect a thing. Kent stood back and took a moment to admire his work, placing the resealed package at your feet before ruffling your hair again. 

You rolled your eyes, shaking him off, before he quickly made his way back to his side of the car and hopped in. You looked at him incredulously, “We don’t even know what we’re having yet!” you exclaimed, but you knew there was no point in arguing. Ever since you told him that he was going to be a dad, he was adamant that the two of you were having a baby girl. Of course, he’d be happy as long as the baby’s safe and healthy, but that didn’t change his fatherly instinct, as he liked to call it. You rolled your eyes again, chuckling softly, and were on your way back to the beach house.

When the two of you arrived back there, Sean, Cole, and Adam’s rowdy laughter could be heard through the walls as you and Kent slipped through the side door into the kitchen. When he looked over towards you, he noticed how you self-consciously had placed your arms over your growing bump. Sensing your discomfort, he softly placed the alcohol down and gifted you the hoodie off of his back.

You smiled gratefully at him, grabbing the “seltzers” from him as he carried the whiskey and beer. The two of you carried the drinks out to the main room, where Sean, Cole, and Adam were engrossed in a game of Black Jack.

“Finally!” Cole exclaimed, dropping his cards as he noticed the two of you walk in, “We were wondering what took you so long!”

You chuckled, placing the drinks down on the table alongside Kent, “It’s Friday night in a vacation town,” Kent explained, shrugging his shoulders to keep it casual. Adam nodded along, seemingly saying fair enough.

As the guys reached for the beer and whiskey, Kent grabbed one of the “seltzer” cans and handed it to you with a wink. You accepted it gratefully, taking a sip and letting the cool, refreshing taste calm your nerves. He then wrapped an arm around you as you cuddled into his side.

The night continued on, with no one suspicious about what you and Kent had just pulled off. The boys were yelling about the game of euchre they were playing, earning a soft but playful eye roll from you. Kent kept a watchful eye on you, making sure you were comfortable, all while seamlessly blending in with his teammates.

As the night wore on, the laughter in the living room began to slow, and you could feel the weight of exhaustion settling over you. Between traveling all day and the energy it took to keep up appearances, your body was calling for rest. You smiled at the guys, pretending to stifle a yawn as you pushed your chair back from the table.

“I think I’m gonna call it a night,” you said, glancing around the room, “I’m pretty wiped from today.”

Sean, Cole, and Adam all gave you understanding looks, still focused on their cards and drinks. “You’ve earned it,” Sean said with a grin, “We’ll try not to be too loud and keep you up.”

“Good luck with that,” Adam teased, “Cole’s not exactly the quietest person you’ll ever meet.” 

You laughed lightly as Cole smacked Adam upside the head. Standing up and giving Kent a quick look, your eyes communicated more than words could in that moment. He caught your glance immediately, knowing exactly what you meant. You needed him with you, but at the same time, you didn’t want to raise suspicion by him leaving too soon after you.

“I’ll be up in a bit,” he said, giving you a small, reassuring smile, “I’ll keep an eye on Cole and make sure he’s not too loud.”

You nodded, giving him a quick hug and offering the guys a wave before slipping away from the table. As you climbed the stairs, you could hear them still talking and laughing, their voices a soft hum in the background. Once you were upstairs, you exhaled a long breath of relief, the tension of the day finally easing as you made your way to your room. 

You changed into your pajamas, feeling the weight of the day lifting as you settled onto the bed. It didn’t take long for Kent to join you. About 30 minutes later, you heard his familiar footsteps on the stairs, and the door quietly creaked open.

“Hey,” he said softly, closing the door behind him as he moved toward the bed, “You okay?”

You smiled, nodding as he sat down beside you, “Yeah, just tired. It was a lot today.”

Kent slid into bed next to you, wrapping an arm around your shoulders and pulling you into his chest. “I know. You did so good today, pretty girl. No one suspects a thing.”

You chuckled softly, resting your head against his chest, the steady rhythm of his heartbeat calming you, “Thanks for helping me pull it off. I don’t know what I’d do without you.”

Kent kissed the top of your head, his voice low and comforting, “Of course, my love. We’re a team.”

The two of you stayed like that for awhile, the soft sounds of the ocean outside your window mixing with the distant murmur of voices from downstairs. It felt peaceful, the weight of the day finally lifting now that you were alone together.

“I can’t wait until they're here,” you whispered after a few moments of silence, your hand resting gently over your stomach.

Kent smiled against your hair, his arm tightening around you, “Me too. But until then, we’ll keep playing it cool for as long as we can. You get some rest, though, alright? You’ve had a long day.”

You nodded, feeling sleep begin to pull at you as Kent’s warmth and presence comforted you, “Goodnight, KJ.”

“Goodnight, Y/N/N,” he whispered, pressing another soft kiss to your forehead.

With Kent beside you, you felt safe and content, knowing that no matter what challenges the next days would bring, you had him by your side. As your eyes fluttered shut, the last thing you felt was Kent’s hand gently resting on your stomach, a quiet reminder that the two of you were in this together. Always.

"I think... I'm in love with (Name)" || "Congrats on being the last one to find out” with Sean kuraly?

I LOVE IT!!!! this takes place in the college!reader x sean kuraly alternative universe! hope you like ittt (p.s: if you wanna talk about this au with me, just send me an ask and i’ll happily reply :))

sean has loved before, of course. but this time, he couldn’t phantom his own feelings for you. it was normal to feel the urge to kiss you all the time, take care of you and want to be by your side, right?

he couldn’t understand why his teammates were addressing you as his girlfriend. you were just having fun, weren’t you? in his head, the answer was yes.

“hey seanie, why you all smiley?” cole asked, skating by his side.

“no i’m not,” sean retorted.

“yeah man you are,” said patrick, also skating beside him.

“i was just thinking about my date with y/n yesterday.”

his teammates only laughed and skated faster, approaching again at some point and gossiping about something sean had no idea about.

later that night, kuraly opened his door and felt your familiar scent around the apartment, as well as a delicious smell of homemade food.

yes, you loved going to his apartment to study in peace and, in exchange, you cooked for him. you didn’t mind at all, since you were madly in love with him and, of course, grateful for him to let you study at his place.

“i’m home, babe,” he said, for the first time. it was totally natural, so natural he didn’t even notice. but you did.

“in the kitchen!” you replied.

your favorite place to study was his beautiful kitchen’s island so he could always found you there.

he entered the kitchen and saw you, prettier than ever, in one of his shirts and with your hair put up in a ponytail. sean slowly approached you, wrapping his arms around your waist and hiding his head on the crook of your neck. he could easily get used to come home to you, he thought.

“how’s my favorite girl doing?”

“i’m fine, just a little stressed with upcoming tests but it’s okay,” you answered.

“what about a midnight drive?”

“i’d love to, but don’t you have practice early tomorrow?”

“no, only in the afternoon.”

“so yeah, let’s do this.”

you kept talking while sean served the food and you organized the dining table and, precisely at midnight, you were in a car ride with kuraly while it rained outside.

you ended up having sex in the backseat of the car like two teenagers and it was in the moment you rested your head against his sweaty chest that the realization that he loved you with all his being hit him.

the next day, at practice, he was tying his skates when patrick sat beside him.

“i gotta tell you something,” sean said. patrick just nodded and kuraly dropped the bomb. "i think... i'm in love with y/n"

laine just laughed, patting sean on the back "congrats on being the last one to find out”

that left sean just staring at him in disbelief.

[carlsainz]

“I didn’t get soaked wet through walking to your house for you to say no to pizza. I have beer too. I know you’re sad, so let me in.” With Sean please! :)

this ask got me screaming and kicking my feet ajsjdjsjjsjsjs this is officially the starting point of my college!reader x sean au !! @sean-kuraly this is for you, mwah 😙

not gonna lie, i'm a little nervous because it's been a while since i wrote something for the last time but it is what it is

“I didn’t get soaked wet through walking to your house for you to say no to pizza. I have beer too. I know you’re sad, so let me in.”

sean sighed when his call went straight to voicemail for the tenth time. he knew you had an exam earlier and by the way you weren't answering his calls and messages, it probably wasn't good.

letting his head fall against the fluffy backrest of his couch, sean looked at the ceiling until an idea popped into his mind. standing up quickly, he grabbed his wallet and keys and locked the door before rushing to his car.

meanwhile, you were moping in your dorm room, red nose and wet eyes after crying the whole afternoon. you were so sure you failed your exam, there's no way it would work out this time and it made you feel desperate. hugging your pillow tighter, you felt the warm tears starting to stream down again, wetting the pillow even more but you didn't care.

it continued like this for a while, until you heard someone knocking on the door. getting up, you tried – and failed – to wipe the tears away thinking it was your housemate that probably forgot her keys again.

"who is it?" you asked.

"it's me, love," you heard sean's muffled voice.

"please go away, i'll talk to you tomorrow," you sniffled.

with an worried voice, he said "i didn’t get soaked wet through walking to your house for you to say no to pizza. i have beer too. i know you’re sad, so let me in."

as he said, you finally looked through the window and saw the rain falling hard. you were so deep in the sea of feelings you didn't even notice. sighing and cleaning your face, you opened the door just to see your boyfriend soaked and holding a box of beer on a hand and the pizza on the other.

the tears started falling again in full force but this time, because you loved him so much. after everything you had to go through, the universe finally gifted you with an incredible and caring boyfriend and you would never be able to thank it enough.

"come in, baby," you said, sniffling. "go to my room to put some dry clothes on, you can get a towel too."

"but first, where's my kiss?" he asked.

you smiled through the tears and, standing on your tiptoes, kissed your favorite lips. "i love you, kuraly," you said, hand cupping his cheek. "but now, go change."

"yes ma'am," he laughed. "hold this for me, yeah?"

you picked the things out of his hands while he went upstairs to your room and all you could think was how much you loved him.

Kent slid into bed next to you, wrapping an arm around your shoulders and pulling you into his chest. “I know. You did so good today, pretty girl. No one suspects a thing.”

You chuckled softly, resting your head against his chest, the steady rhythm of his heartbeat calming you, “Thanks for helping me pull it off. I don’t know what I’d do without you.”

Kent kissed the top of your head, his voice low and comforting, “Of course, my love. We’re a team.”

The two of you stayed like that for awhile, the soft sounds of the ocean outside your window mixing with the distant murmur of voices from downstairs. It felt peaceful, the weight of the day finally lifting now that you were alone together.

“I can’t wait until they're here,” you whispered after a few moments of silence, your hand resting gently over your stomach.

Kent smiled against your hair, his arm tightening around you, “Me too. But until then, we’ll keep playing it cool for as long as we can. You get some rest, though, alright? You’ve had a long day.”

You nodded, feeling sleep begin to pull at you as Kent’s warmth and presence comforted you, “Goodnight, KJ.”

“Goodnight, Y/N/N,” he whispered, pressing another soft kiss to your forehead.

With Kent beside you, you felt safe and content, knowing that no matter what challenges the next days would bring, you had him by your side. As your eyes fluttered shut, the last thing you felt was Kent’s hand gently resting on your stomach, a quiet reminder that the two of you were in this together. Always.
