You & Me Song — Arda Güler.
Pairing: Arda Güler x Fem!Reader
Summary: Despite having silly arguments, you know it’ll never ruin what the two of you have.
Word Count: 525+
Disclaimer/s — Not angst, but like, I don’t know, and fluff!
A/N: Imagine that one picture of the guy in the distance with his hands over his head and the chains locked around his wrists snapping broken. Yeah. That’s quite literally me, bless.
Was it really that hard to keep your clothes from being thrown to the ground? No. No, it wasn’t.
However, it didn’t seem that way for Arda! Nope!
Ever since you guys started dating and you’d have sleepover at his house or he yours, the man would always, and you meant always, leave his clothes on the floor. It irked you more than you cared to admit. Tremendously so.
“Arda,” you started, letting out a sigh as you went to pick up his clothes, “Didn’t we talk about this?”
Looking over at you, his expression goes from stoic to soft. “I was in a rush this morning. I’ll put them in the basket next time, okay?”
“Okay. But… that’s what you said the last time.”
Oh. Well, that was true! He knew it. “I know—it was a bad morning. I was late. I just threw on clothes and left, you know that. You saw me!”
“Yeah, I did. Do you notice how these clothes are the clothes from yesterday? Arda, the basket is right there! Is it really that hard to simply…” you trail off, scooping his clothes into your arms and dropping them into the basket of dirty clothes.
Once your arms were empty, you turned toward him and quirked a brow. “To do that? Is it?”
“How is that any different than when you leave dishes around?” His attempt to subtly switch the scolding to you. And it worked. “It’s basically the same thing, just different. Do you know that?”
You felt annoyance rising into your veins, your gaze following him as he stood up, crossing his arms over his chest. “I literally wash them!”
“After I tell you that they’re there!” Arda scoffs.
Finally having had enough, you spare him one last glance before grabbing the basket of clothes and exiting the room. Closing the door behind you. He had a point, you knew he did. It was in the heat of the moment that you decided you’d ignore him.
That only seemed to last… fifteen minutes. Okay!
Hearing the dryer’s ‘ding’ had you entering the laundry room, taking out every article of clothing and folding them. That’s when you heard steps from behind you and hands settle onto your waist, interlocking over your abdomen. “I’m sorry.”
“It’s fine,” you grumbled, “I… well, I’m sorry, too.”
Your boyfriend hums against your hair, placing a tender kiss to the top of your head. “I’ll start putting my clothes in the basket, I really promise.”
You couldn’t stay mad at him. And it was clear he couldn’t stay mad at you. So, with a small smile spreading across your face, you nodded your head. “I promise to set my dishes in the sink.”
“Good. How about a movie? When you’re done.”
“Clothes can wait. What did you want to watch?”
While Arda answered, he guided you both into the living room and settled down on the couch. Your legs draped over his lap and his hands tracing up and down against them. Together, you became engrossed in the movie playing before you.
You loved him deeply, clothes on the floor and all.
Likes, reblogs, and comments are always appreciated ^_^.

JAMIE TARTT | it's nice to have a friend.
MASTERLIST:
i've already mapped out this story, so until further notice, this is the length of the whole fic! as i post the chapters, i'll gradually update the titles here :)
PROLOGUE - hold on to the memories. CHAPTER ONE - nothing good starts in a getaway car. CHAPTER TWO - you'll always know me. CHAPTER THREE - so inviting, i almost jump in. INTERLUDE - are we still friends? CHAPTER FOUR - come home to my heart. CHAPTER FIVE - this is what it feels like. CHAPTER SIX - it all makes sense when i'm with you. EPILOGUE - you and me, always and forever.
PLAYLIST:
some songs that helped me along while writing and the lyrics of some of them are actually where i got the title chapters from! i didn't put the songs in order, but you can try and tell what direction the story is going to go based on them (insert evil laugh)!

Storia Di Musica #277 - AA.VV., Romeo + Juliet (music from the motion picture), 1996
La serie maggiaiola di dischi colonna sonora volge al termine. Per mia scelta iniziale, non ho considerato i classici opere di quei grandiosi giganti che hanno fatto delle colonne sonore quasi un nuovo ramo artistico (penso a Morricone, Zimmer, Williams, Rota, Badalamenti per dire i primi che mi vengono in mente), ho considerato alcuni lavori dove l’uso del brano rock fosse alquanto innovativo, direi di costruzione delle scene e non di semplice accompagnamento, e che furono anche motore di successo sia per il film che per le canzoni che compongono la colonna sonora. La scelta di oggi è caduta sul film di Buz Luhrmann, Romeo + Juliet, del 1996, una ripresa quasi del tutto integrale del classico dramma di William Shakespeare: il regista utilizza in maniera quasi identica trama e dialoghi, cambiando solo l’ambientazione, spostando le vicende dalla splendida Verona italica a Verona Beach, sobborgo di Los Angeles, negli anni ‘90 del ‘900, dove Montecchi e Capuleti sono due potenti famiglie dedite al malaffare che si combattono non a colpi di spada ma di armi da fuoco. Luhramm affida i temi orchestrali a Nellee Hooper, Craig Armstrong e Marius De Vries e ad una serie di canzoni rock, che compongono il primo volume della colonna sonora. Infatti ne furono pubblicati due: il primo è il riferimento alla storia di oggi, il secondo uscì dopo il successo del primo, racchiudendo i temi orchestrali principali e alcune canzoni secondarie. Il disco racchiudi molteplici artisti e molteplici generi: la canzone principale, il tema d’amore, è la ballata pianistica, toccante, Kissing You di Des’ree, che in quei mesi aveva scalato le classifiche di mezzo mondo con il sound accattivante del suo singolo You Gotta Be. Hooper e De Vries remixano una b-side del primo singolo dei Garbage, #1 Crush, che inizia con i gemiti sensuali di Shirley Manson. I Butthole Surfers perdono buona parte della furia iconoclasta della loro musica, ma regalano un brano eccellente in Whatever (I Had a Dream), scritto per l’occasione. C’è molta musica indie: dagli Everclear con Local God, il duo degli One Inch Punch con Pretty Piece Of Flesh, una delle canzoni più famose di Gavin Friday, Angel, che verrà usata anche in molte pubblicità. C’è una parte che recupera due canzoni del passato: Young Hearts Run Free è una canzone scritta da David Crawford, che fu portata al successo nel 1976 da Candi Station, fino al numero 1, e che qui è ripresa da Kym Gazelle; Everybody's Free (To Feel Good) fu il brano più utilizzato nei club di Ibiza nel 1991, ed è il maggior successo di Rozalla, una artista dance dello Zimbabwe, ed è ripresa qui da Quindon Tarver, che ha pure un cameo nel film. C’è anche un trittico di canzoni di gruppi svedesi: la delicata Little Star di Stina Nordenstam, il più grande successo del gruppo The Wannadies, You And Me Song (del 1994), ma soprattutto Lovefool dei Cardigans di Nina Perssons, uscito poche settimane prima come singolo e che divenne un successo strepitoso anche per via del clamore del film. Rimangono una bellissima ballata di Mundy, un cantautore irlandese che diventerà un produttore discografico fondando una sua propria etichetta, con To You I Bestow, e una canzone dei Radiohead, Talk Show Host, una b-side del singolo Street Spirit (Fade Out), che faceva parte del disco dello stesso anno, 1996, The Bends. Thom Yorke scrisse però per il film una canzone speciale, ispirata, secondo tutte le interviste che in seguito concesse, ad un’altra famosa trasposizione del dramma del Bardo Romeo e Giulietta, quella del 1968 diretta da Franco Zeffirelli. Exit Music (For a Film) fu usata per i titoli di coda del film di Luhrmann, ma non nella colonna sonora per precisa scelta di Yorke: la canzone diventerà poi leggendaria poichè è nella scaletta di Ok Computer, lo storico capolavoro dell’anno successivo, 1997. Luhrmman userà in tutti i suoi lavori brani rock in modo particolare, e massima testimonianza di ciò sono il musical Moulin Rouge del 2001 e Elvis del 2022, dove in entrambi i casi porta a casa una nomination all’ Oscar per la miglior regia. Il film sarà un successo al botteghino, e lo fu anche la colonna sonora: arriverà al numero 2 della classifica di Billboard, e venderà solo negli USA 3 milioni di copie, fu il trampolino di lancio per gli attori (Di Caprio l’anno successivo, nel 1997, era in Titanic), per alcuni dei protagonisti di questa colonna sonora (soprattutto i Cardigans) e per lo stesso Luhrmann.
