Okay but here me out—

Time x reader angst but their exes

where the two had dated in their youth but broke up for a SERIES of reasons that ultimately made both party’s believe that the other would be better off without them. They break up and go there separate ways but will forever remember the love they had for the other. The two may have had other relationships after the break up or maybe their heart(s) was still hopelessly in love with the other. Either way, they two hadn’t seen eachother in years until…

Time and the Chain runs into Reader at a magic shop in Time’s era. And IMMEDIATELY the chain can SEE the tension between them, Time being more rigid and sheepish than the group has every seen before and the shop clerk does everything in their power to avoid the hero. At first, everyone thought that the two were enemies or maybe Time had awkward run ins with this person before the group met! But a few of the boys pick up on the subtle cues and oddly in syne actions the duo shared.

While the clerk would never look at the hero when he was looking at them…they would sneak a glance when the old man looked away. When Time would quietly -almost sheepishly- ask for information from the clerk, he would be able to finish the clerk’s train of thought before they even finished (he would quickly apologize for cutting them off, like he had just cursed them to hell-). There were many more instances that just screamed a tension that was anything but hostile but more…romantic.

After the Chain left, many noticed the older hero shooting many glancing over his shoulder at the store, like he was waiting for…something. Warriors was the first to question Time, as the others were far too scared of stepping on the man’s toes. They sadly didn’t get much information out of Time, only that the clerk was an old friend from his teens but those who knew the feeling of a broken heart knew what that pained look in his eyes met.
