steal my girl | the wonder years
hughes!sister x will smith au (samy + will)
a requested fic about some of will’s dev program friends flirting with samy before they got together
3k words
hahaa i kind of got carried away with this, but i enjoyed writing it. i made zeev and will lowkey enemies, but i promise they’re not. will’s just super jealous and it shows :)
au masterlist
will's eyes glued themselves to samy's back where she stood out in the open arena talking with zeev, cole, and teddy. she'd just gotten in a few minutes ago with a hoard of treats for the guys from her mom who made way too many extras meant for samy's senior banquet a few nights ago. zeev seemingly came out of the locker room at the right time to help her set them up on one of the back tables and then he just got her talking when everyone else came out to get something to eat.
the blonde was out on the ice doing a few warm up drill with ryan and gabe, promising to be done soon when he waved to samy, but now he could not pull his gaze away from the three guys talking her up by the bleachers.
they were all laughing about something because they were bent over and hanging off one another with red faces. will was too far away to catch the conversation, but his face twisted even more when he saw zeev's hand lingering on samy's arm.
"dude, you're being so obvious," ryan muttered as he skated by his friend, finally catching his attention and breaking him from his harsh glare.
will spun around, his two friends looking at him with a look that said "stop being so jealous." his expression crinkled up, "i'm not being obvious."
"i can literally tell how jealous you are right now," gabe rolled his eyes a bit while the blonde just shook his head.
"i'm not jealous."
"then why are you staring at them like you wanna punch them, huh?" ryan knew he got will with that one because his face burned in embarrassment.
"i'm not. i just..i'm not jealous," the forward tried skating away from them, but they only followed after him with their pucks.
"they're not gonna steal your girl, don't worry," gabe laughed lightly, but will didn't find it amusing. not even in the slightest as he looked back over at the four still immersed in a conversation.
"yeah then why does zeev and all of them talk her up like that? i mean they know they're flirting with her," will made his case.
"i don't know. maybe they're trying to get a rise out of you so you finally like admit your feelings," ryan poked his friend's chest in a way that said they've been bothering him about this since they confirmed will liked samy.
"well that's stupid."
"because it's working?" gabe smirked.
"look, i just don't like how they know i like her yet they flirt with her in front of me because she flirts back with them," will rolled his eyes a bit, but he couldn't really be mad because samy has always had a flirty personality. it was just who she was, so she wasn't intentionally trying to indulge in all of the guys' behavior.
"well maybe you should be the one over there flirting with her instead of getting mad that zeev and all them are doing it," gabe pushed his friend towards the door of the rink.
will glided across the ice until he landed against the boards. he glared back at ryan and gabe who gave him little thumbs up and when he turned back around, samy appeared. the boy flushed at her sudden close proximity, noticing zeev, teddy, and cole wander away for now meaning he got her all to himself for a few minutes.
"hi," she smiled, leaning herself against the small wooden board separating them from the ice and the floor so she was even closer.
"hey," will returned her smile, pulling his helmet off for the moment.
"how's warmups?" samy reached her hand up to fix some of his misplaced curls making the poor blonde blush an embarrassing red all over his face, but he hoped she would just think it's from the cold.
"fine. we were just trying to get some more time in before actual warmups started. i see your mom brought a lot of food," will laughed, watching the others grab from the trays still.
samy pulled her hand away, tucking it into the warmth of her coat pockets, "oh my god, she went crazy. she made way too much for the banquet. she'll be glad it's getting eaten."
"yeah, we'll eat it, don't worry. how was the banquet?" will leaned further over the wall so him and samy were inches away from each other. he couldn't tell if she was blushing or not, but either way their closeness had butterflies in both of their stomachs.
"it was good. your card was cute and so were your parents there," colleen and bill showed up to the hughes' kids events as much as ellen and jim did for will and grace. since they were only thirty minutes away, the drive was made quite frequently.
"sorry i couldn't be there. i wish i was," will frowned a bit, but samy shook her head.
"don't worry, i knew you were there in spirit. how are you feeling about the game tonight?" she finally sat down on the little ledge where will lifted his legs over so he could sit down next to her.
"good, i think. i'm kind of nervous to play against luke though," it was the game where the usntdp got to try their hand at playing against a college team and the michigan boys came up to play in the arena.
"why? don't be. you know how he plays," samy nudged the boy's arm, making him flush as he stared at the ground.
"i know, but all the other guys are like..kind of good. they're gonna destroy us probably," the two shared a small laugh.
"if anything it will be good experience. i know luke's looking forward to playing against you anyway," that made will smile. he hadn't seen much of the older hughes because of how busy both of them had been with hockey, so he was glad he got to see him even if it was against one another.
the two kept talking for a bit longer while will's gaze occasionally bounced over to zeev and the others at the food table. sometimes they'd meet gazes and there was something unreadable in zeev's expression. either way, the blonde tried forgetting it and focusing his attention on the girl beside him talking about how her week at school went.
will prided himself in the fact that he got to hear all the mundane details about samy's life and all of these other guys (except his closer friends) didn't. plus, zeev wasn't the one having drunk make outs with her. even if they didn't remember it or even talked about it the next day, will was still the one samy went to when she was a bit too drunk and started kissing in a bathroom.
"will, you need to get one of the cookies. they're amazing," teddy came back over with a cookie in his hand.
"i know, i've had them before," the blonde laughed at the younger brunette.
"your mom makes such great food," teddy nudged samy's arm and the girl smiled.
"i'll make sure to tell her that because i'm sure she'll be happy to cook for you guys again," the girl chuckled.
"please do. i could eat a hundred of these."
"but don't actually because you'll probably kill yourself before the game," zeev reappeared with cole and carter in tow.
"i know, i know," teddy rolled his eyes a bit.
"oh! how was your game last week?" carter wondered with a mouthful of cracker. since all of the guys were fairly close to girl, they always had a million questions to ask about her games whenever she wasn't at their games because of her own.
"oh, it was good. we won 6-0," samy smiled.
"shit, 6-0? that's crazy. you guys must've dug them to the ground," zeev laughed a little.
"yeah, we kind of did. they were also a shitty team," the youngest hughes shrugged a bit.
"okay, but still. i bet you scored most of those points?" his hands poked into samy's shoulders again where will once again found himself clenching his jaw at the way zeev always found the need to touch her when he spoke.
"i mean..i don't wanna..toot my own horn or anything but i did score half of them," she shrugged like it wasn't a huge deal.
"hey, up top. you should always be bragging about that," the darker-haired boy raised his hand for a high-five. samy quickly reciprocated which led to the rest of the guys holding their hands up for a high five.
will went last, putting on his best smile so no one could see his jealousy sinking back into his system.
"when you're really cool and famous one day playing on the women's national soccer team, remember us," teddy said making the others laugh.
"oh, don't worry, i will. i wouldn't forget you guys," she ruffled up his hair.
"obviously not. we've got pretty memorable faces," zeev flashed one of those smiles he only gave to girls he flirted in the stands with.
"right. you're actually in my dreams every night," samy said and that was finally will's tipping point.
he knew samy didn't mean that literally, but he hated the way zeev's face reddened into a blush at her words and the smile on her face when she said it.
"i gotta go get ready. i'll see you," will mumbled, pushing off the wall towards the locker room. he didn't even look at anyone as he walked away, the anger and jealousy becoming too much and he didn't wanna snap at anyone as much as he really, really wanted to.
samy stared at her friend's retreating figure. she knew something was off as soon as the others wandered over to them, but she couldn't put her finger on it. she just let it go for now knowing she'd talk with him later and returned her focus to the conversation with the three guys in front of her, her smile quickly returning.
—
the umich boys arrived an hour later along with samy's parents. she hung down by the ice behind luke who laced his skates up on the bench while her eyes occasionally flicked up to will who was now dressed in his uniform and hitting some of his pucks a little too hard into the net.
"okay, you're staring really hard," luke mumbled as he stood back up, eyes now on his sister.
"at what?" she played dumb.
"oh come on, i'm not stupid, samy," the brunette rolled his eyes that his sister thought he wouldn't know.
"i think he's just nervous to play against you and the guys," samy said with her eyes back on will.
"why? he knows how i play. he could beat me if he really tried," the middle hughes chuckled
"i dunno. just don't go too hard on him," she looked at luke a bit seriously. he rolled his eyes again.
"i'll go as hard as i want to on him. he can take it," luke shoved samy back gently before he swung his legs over and got onto the ice to warm up.
samy watched as him and will exchanged a quick bro hug and hello. they spoke to one another for a second before luke went over to his teammates for warmups. her eyes wandered back over to will where she gave him a quick thumbs up after meeting his gaze.
he managed a smile in her direction, some of his anger dissipating within the last hour, except it really didn't last long when he saw zeev skate by. he smiled at the brunette too and it was incredible that will hadn't actually punched him yet.
"maybe this anger will be good for the game," ryan said, skating up to will.
"yeah, right," the blonde mumbled as he went back to what he was doing.
the game was a tough one between the u18s and the umich boys. samy didn't know who to cheer for so she just ended up cheering for both of them. despite luke being two years ahead of will, the two went neck and neck trying to score on each other. it was a good thing they practiced together a lot during the summer because will knew a lot of luke's tricks and vice versa.
samy enjoyed watching her brother and best friend play one another. even though they probably wouldn't ever play on the same team together, she was glad they could at least play one another.
whenever will scored, samy was on her feet. that made will feel a little better about himself because he was seriously wondering if zeev was his competition because at least she didn't do that when he scored.
the game ended in a quick 3-2. the u18s were close, but michigan quickly showed who had the upper hand and the experience. while waiting for the guys to shower and talk with their coach, samy helped her mom clean up the food.
"i'm glad this was a success," ellen determined.
"yeah, they loved it. i told them you would do it again," samy giggled a little.
"you could feed anything to those boys and they'd eat it all," colleen laughed as well.
gabe and ryan came out first. they put their things down to say hey to the brunette since they hadn't properly talked to her yet since she got there.
"hey hughesy, it's good to see you," ryan smiled after he let go of their hug.
"it's good to see you guys too. you played good," she beamed at each of them.
"thanks. it was fun playing your brother," gabe chuckled.
"i'll tell him that. he said he wasn't going that easy on you all tonight."
will trailed out of the locker room a moment later. he quickly joined their little group, putting on another smile despite the exhaustion in his features.
"hey, you played good," samy pinched his cheek from where he stood beside her.
"thanks. i sort of had luke figured out," he chuckled, flushing at samy's hands on his face.
the four stood there taking with one another for a moment until the others began pouring out of the room. they greeted their parents in quick hellos while zeev inserted himself into the group.
"hey, good game, right?" he asked samy who quickly nodded.
"awesome game. you were quick," she grinned.
will glanced over at ryan and gabe who read his look and slowly started seeing how much zeev flirted with her.
"honestly, you might be the good luck charm," the darker-haired boy chuckled while samy flushed.
"aw, that's sweet of you to say. maybe i am," she beamed some more at his words all while will could only stand there because if he started an argument, it'd escalate real fast.
"there's gonna be a small get together next weekend if you wanna come up. it'd be cool to see you," zeev continued. he was talking about the so-called party some of the other guys were throwing to sort of commemorate the end of the dev program since that was also rapidly approaching.
"yeah, i'd love to. i think i'm free," the brunette agreed to it.
will really couldn't take it anymore so he just walked away without saying anything. gabe quickly followed while ryan stayed back so it wouldn't look as suspicious and they walked until they were out of earshot and sight.
"see how he flirts with her? it's so irritating," will rolled his eyes.
"yeah, i get it now. you know she doesn't actually like him," gabe tried.
"i don't know about that," the blonde mumbled, suddenly worrying that samy did like zeev or something.
"she doesn't. i promise. we'd know if she does. she's just being nice," the darker-haired boy tried reassuring his friend.
"i just hate how he treats her like some actual puck bunny, but she's not. i really can't tell if he's being serious sometimes," the blonde huffed out.
"even if he is, it's all the more reason you need to tell her how you're feeling so she stops indulging in it because she's gonna catch on sooner than later," gabe made his point and sometimes it also irritated will how right he was.
"whatever," the blonde mumbled, ready to walk back to where they were when samy appeared without ryan or zeev.
"there you guys are. you ready to go, will? i think our parents are hungry. i know luke is at least," she chuckled.
"yeah, i'm ready. i'll see you later," they said goodbye to gabe before heading out of the arena to samy's car.
like always, will threw his stuff in and climbed into the passenger seat. it seemed to be their little thing after his games where she'd drive up by herself, will would ride with her to wherever their families decided to eat, and then sometimes she'd go back to his place or will would drive down with her to her place.
at least zeev didn't have this privilege.
"are you doing okay? you've been off," samy finally wondered as they pulled out of the parking lot.
"yeah, i'm fine. long day," will lied a bit because why would he tell samy he's jealous of his own teammate?
"yeah, i bet. you played well, though, i meant it earlier," she smiled his way and it made all of will's problems disappear seeing that smile directed at him.
"thank you. i appreciate it. i'm just excited to get some food in me," the boy beamed, his sour mood slowly fading away the more time he spent alone with the girl.
by the end of the night, zeev was the least of his worries. especially when will went back to samy's place for the night and she curled up next to him on the couch as they watched their favorite movie and ate mint rocky road together.

doing my due diligence with scouting the vibes of this draft class and a bunch were recently asked what they think they’d be pursuing if they weren’t playing hockey and my highlights are:
Zeev Buium said he’d like to be an Astronaut <3 something crazy [pic of woman with frozen potatoes on her head]
Cole Hutson “probably nothing” [visibly processing] “maybe, maybe real estate”
Macklin Celebrini cheated and said he’d coach hockey and like with zero awareness that this isn’t how the game works !!!! what having a jockdad does to a mf….
11/10 NO NOTES KONSTA HELENIUS SAID “SELLING CARS” THE HOCKEYS THEY YEARN FOR THE DEALERSHIPS…
