poor thing would be so worn out, rubbing his tired eyes, ignoring the chatter going on beside him from jesse and the other boys. itâs been a long, hard day. his limbs ache, his shoulders and back tense. his hands have blisters from pulling at reigns all day and he can feel the heat on the high points of his cheekbones that radiate from a sunburn. all billy really wants to do is head back to their little hidey-house and collapse onto his bed, but the boys insisted on a drink.
billy would be blinking owlishly, chin resting on his hand as he tries to stay awake, but then someone is picking up a fiddle. a guitar joins in and then his eyes are wide open, perking up at the sweetest voice heâs ever heard. his back straightens up as he looks to the corner of the little bar, eyes landing on you as you twirl about the little makeshift stage. your dress swishes in the light of the oil lamps, your smile charming and fun.
he thinks he must be dreaming as the song goes on, especially when you meet his gaze and he watches as your brows twitch upwards, just barely. interestedly. he lifts the corner of his lips in a shy sort of smile, his cheeks now warm from more than just the hours he spent in the sun. you watch him watching you, your own smile growing when his does.
when you finish your song, you laugh and take a little bow, shimmying your ruffly skirts at the cheers of everyone in the place. then, you excuse yourself after blowing a kiss to the crowd. his eyes follow you, his heartbeat kicking up in his chest as you make your way towards him. surely this is all in his mind. maybe heâd fallen asleep propped up on his palm, dreaming up a pretty little thing like you.
but no, itâs very real when you come to a stop before him and lean on his table. jesse and the boys go quiet, all watching.
âhi there, cowboy,â you say, giving him a sticky-sweet grin. he flounders for a moment.
âh-hi, miss,â he manages to get out, standing politely and removing his hat. oh yes, he is wide awake.
his boyish stuttering seems to make your own face light up even more, amused.
âyou got a name?â you ask, stepping a little closer to him. your hand reaches out to slide the tips of your fingers down one of his leather suspender straps and he doesnât even try to hide his little shiver.
âiâm billy.â
Can I request a Lottie Matthews x cheerleader!reader, where Lottie always attempts to impress the reader during and outside of games, but readers totally oblivious until Lottie saves her at a party. The yellowjackets always tease Lottie for being head over heels for reader. Lottie gives reader a reason to see each other again by lending reader her varsity jacket. Maybe they turn into the ultimate power couple or something? Thank you so much!
OMG YESSSSSS
â(You) on my armâ by Leith Ross is fitting for this <3
Pairing: Lottie Matthews x Fem!Reader
Summary: ^up above^
Warnings: mentions of an anxious Lottie, reader has comphet<3
âBuzz Buzz Buzz!â Your cheer team chanted as the Yellowjackets scored their thousandth goal of the afternoon, they were definitely on their way to nationals for sure, and definitely deserved it, there she ran, Lottie Mathews, over the course of this season you and Lottie were spending quite some time together with practice, pep-rallies and the big games, she was a fabulous player and she was often caught staring at you in between breaks and half time, you payed no attention to it really, you just thought she was happy to see your sportsmanship.
Oblivious to you, she was hooked, you were the prettiest girl she had ever laid eyes on, but to you, she was nothing but a friend that occasionally shared lost looks across the football pitch. The sound of your Pom-Pomâs rustling through the air made her eyes turn each and every time, it was so distracting, but she didnât care, not at all. âLottie, kick the ball.â Shauna shouted across the pitch, this was the make or break, whether they win or lose, the other team were sneaking up the leaderboard but Lottie was not going to let them have this victory, she made that promise to you this morning when the bell rang for your classes, and she wasnât going to let you down.
The adrenaline was rushing through your veins as your cheer-mate Lexi was clutching to your side with determination, these girls had to win, it would make the schools spirits lift up by a million. There she was, ready to kick the ball, number 5. âGo Lottie!â You cheered as you jumped up and down, your face painted with a smile as she kicked the ball into the net. The crowd erupted in a chant of yells of happiness and relief that their girls had won, âGo jackets!!!!â Your cheer squad lifted your poms to the sky and ran onto the pitch to celebrate with them.
Hers was the first face you searched for, and she was already running to you, you embraced her in a violently charismatic hug, dropping the blue tassels in your hands. âHow does it feel to be the champion of Wishayok?â You beamed as she breathed out a laugh at your question, her forehead touched yours as her teammates touched her shoulders as a sign of their appreciation. âFeels crowded.â She laughed out and you wrapped your arms back around her, âItâll die down soon.â You assured her, Lottie did tend to have sudden outbursts of anxiety and worry, but you were always there to reassure her, although not always, you didnât communicate that much outside of practice and you both seemed to be on different segments of the high school clique chain.
âParty at mine tonight, howâs that sound?â Jackie shouted for the whole alumni to hear and a wave of cheers erupted once more as Jeff ran onto the pitch to embrace her in a hug and Shauna watched with distaste. âYou going?â Lottie asked as you sat down on the grass beside a few of the Yellowjackets and a few of your fellow cheerleaders. Lottie fixed the ribbon in her hair before she lay down beside your seated figure, her hands stretching above her head as all the stress of the game fled from her body. You watched her as her chest began to rise and fall, she looked so peaceful. âI thought it was strictly a jocks only party, no?â You smiled but she wasnât looking, which sort of made your heart pound with the lack of eye contact, why were you so eager for it?
Lottieâs heart skipped a beat at the thought of you skipping out on her, she squinted her eyes to you as the sun was partially blocking her view of vision, âPlease goâŠâ her voice felt softer now, she was internally screaming, she didnât want to appear too clingy to you, after all, you were just friends, if you could even call it that, more like supporters of the same team. Your hands toyed with the end of your skirt as you sat in contemplation, she actually wanted you to go and spend time with you, maybe the party wouldnât be so bad. âWho knows, maybe when you open the door to Jackieâs place, I might be there.â You whispered to her as you intertwined the Pom-Pomâs in your hands and stood up. Lottie gave you a small smile, which was barely existent, it was a playful tone but she felt like she was being blown off.
âMy mom is here, I have to go, but⊠congrats on your big win.â You shook the bobbles in your hands and Lottieâs eyes broke a little at the lack of a âsee you laterâ she watched you walk off and wished for nothing more than to kiss you goodbye, to promise that she would have the guts to admit she loves you, but the words caught in her throat and you were already opening the car door, and she remained on the grass, Taissa sitting down beside her.
âWhat were you two flirting about?â Number 8 on the team spoke up, nudging Lottie in the shoulder jokingly. Lottie looked away with a little frown and Taiâs eyes became a lot more serious, âShe isnât going tonight it she?â Taissa asked her friend and Lottie shrugged and just got up and walked away, leaving Taissa the slightest bit regretful for even asking in the first place.
Jackie invited the yellowjackets to her place to get ready before the party, Lottie was finishing applying mascara as Vanessa and Laura Lee were busy talking about todayâs game, âYou seemed awfully close to the cheer captain earlier, LotâŠâ The red head spoke up, almost making Lottie smudge her makeup, she cleared her throat and turned around to face the pair, âYeah? So what? Sheâs my friend.â Lottie put the wand back into the container and sat down on the bed beside Vanessa, Van continued to look at Lottie with her eyebrows raised and a sly smile on her face, âFriend? Hm, well, is she coming tonight?â Laura Lee crossed her arms, intrigued at the conversation the two were having and teased Lottie alongside Vanessa. âNope.â Lottie sighed and suddenly Jackieâs doorbell rang.
Downstairs, unknown to her, you stood, with your jacket in your hands, waiting for somebody to open the door, you were a little early, as was Misty who was stood beside you, people are going to think you hitched a ride together, which wasnât the case⊠Shauna opened the door to see you and smiled, âHey, you made it.â She motioned for you to enter the house and Misty followed like duckling behind you. âLottie is upstairs in Jackieâs room.â Shauna pointed up the staircase and you froze a little at how predictable you were to her teammates, but anyway you nodded as you narrowed your lips as if you were caught out and you practically ran up the stairs, and Misty followed Shauna into the kitchen to help prepare the snacks.
You knocked on the bedroom door and the girl you were looking for gracefully opened the door while continuing her conversation with the girls, âI told you I donât have a thing for-â then her eyes met yours as you were revealed to Vanessa and Laura Lee and they shared a fit of laughter, âY/N!â Lottieâs face immediately changed once you were in the picture, and a smile which was only reserved for you was etched onto her face, her eyes were bright as you waved to her and walked into the room. You looked to your friend with an unintentional adoring look. Vanessa caught it from a mile away and she had to look away or else she would cause Lottie to freak out a whole lot more than she already was.
âTold you Iâd be there if you opened the door!â You laughed and her eyes lingered on your lips for way too long, Lottie wiped her hands on her skirt as she was about to freak out, you were making her so nervous, you just gazed into her eyes. You set your jacket onto Jackieâs desk chair, and looked at yourself in the mirror, fixing your hair and making sure it framed your face properly. Through the mirror you noticed Vanessa usher you over to her and you turned around and walked towards her, âAnyone in particular you are going to homecoming with?â Vanessa asked innocently to trigger a conversation, but what you couldnât see was Lottieâs face getting more and more jealous, it wasnât intentional, it just sort of⊠happened.
She rested on the carpet as she gazed up at you and your body, your hand and the way it sat so perfectly, how your face was so effortlessly pretty and how it looked as though you werenât even wearing any makeup. You breathed out a laugh at Vanessaâs question and nodded, âSome guy on the football team asked meâŠâ you didnât seem too impressed but you were happy that you had a date, even if you didnât particularly like him, it covered up the instant empty feeling you got when you were around him. âOh?â Vanâs face only appeared to be shocked, she got it wrong, unless you were closeted, which you most definitely were, you sighed heavily and lay back on the bed, copying exactly what Laura Lee was doing. âLottie, do you have a date?â Your question was innocent and Vanessa and Lottie shared a look, Vanessaâs eyes were wide as if coaxing Lottie to let go and just pour her heart out to you, but you had someone and he was most likely downstairs right now. âNo, not yet.â Lottie spoke faintly and she had her hands in the air from her position on the ground and she gazed at them.
âAll in good time.â You assured her and you heard music loudly blaring from downstairs, making you jump a little at the suddenness of it all. It was silent in the bedroom and Van hit her knees with her hands and jumped up, âWell, looks like the party has started.â She amped up her voice and lightly kicked Lottieâs leg to get her to liven up, then you and Laura Lee stood and exited the room, Lottie shuffling along behind the both of you.
It was pitch black outside bar the fairy lights brightening the garden, where a majority of the party guests were, with a drink in each of their hands. You were a little tipsy but not enough to be completely fumbling. You and Lottie spend half of the night laughing and clinging to one another, each time one of your favourite songs came on you were each dancing with one another and laughing as one of you nearly slipped on the tiled floor outside.
Taissa and Vanessa watched the both of you with a knowing smile, even if the pair of you were never going to admit it, you had something special and maybe you were the one in a deep sea of denial, because maybe liking girls was in the cards for you. Lottie sure as hell wanted you to feel the same. Your so called prom date was now walking towards you with anger in his face, but you were unaware of him until he turned you around to face him, Tai and Van stared at one another with a shocked look but stayed away from the scene incase it wasnât entirely what it looked like.
Lottie stood there a little shaken as he just ruined a moment she was having with you. âWhere the fuck have you been all night?â He asked you rather pissed, heâd most definitely been drinking, and your face became sour at the sight of him that way. âIâve been with my friends, whatâs the problem?â Friend zoned again, Lottie just glared daggers at the football player. âHave you just forgotten about me or something, you have a thing for girls now or what?â Your eyes went stale as you looked behind you at Lottie, and proceeded to shake your head, you had gone little at this confrontation, and like your saviour, Lottie stood in front of you with an angered expression on her face, âGet the fuck away from her. Canât you see she was happy until you showed up?â Lottie defended you like her life depended on it and the jock just took a step back and flipped you both off before stumbling back towards the table of booze.
Your crossed your arms, a little cold from the midnight air and your eyes searched every area of Lottie. She turned around to face you and placed her hands on your arms gently, and looked into your eyes for any sign that you were upset. âAre you alright?â Her lips were parted as she breathed in an out, completely shocked that she had the balls to even do that, but she cared way too much about you to just sit back and let you take that bullshit from a boy you donât even give a rats ass about.
You shrugged your shoulders and Lottieâs ran her hands up and down your arms to warm you up but it was no use you were practically an icicle. âHeâs a dick.â You whispered and a smile graced your face, which, in turn made Lottie a little more chipper at your remark. âHere, take thisâŠâ she shook off her varsity jacket and draped it around your shoulders, you looked up at her eyes with nothing but thankfulness that she was in your life. You did the noble thing and hugged her, the smell of her perfume entered your senses and it reminded you of all the times you would make contact after the end of a game or as it lingered through the changing rooms before the end of the school day, all these memories flashed through your mind of all the little moments you and Lottie each spent with one another and your mind was shaming you, why? Why canât you just know how you feel like a normal person? It freaked you the fuck out⊠but Lottie was better than perfect and you needed to do something about it.
The song changed on the speaker and a ton of people began crowding around and dancing, and or swaying to the beat, your head was spinning as you rubbed your lips together and thought of what you were about to do, it was risky but it felt so right, Lottieâs eyes were on you now and it was the perfect opportunity, and you caved, your lips met hers eagerly as your whole world finally moulded into the correct shape, all your doubts and questioning finally flew out the window, as her lips connected with yours.
You didnât give a shit if people were looking, neither did Lottie. Her lips were soft and practically fit yours perfectly, your hands were on her waist and hers cupped your face as she caressed you, you were both connected on a deeper level than you ever thought was possible, each inch of your bodies touching as you prayed for this moment to last forever, but alas the song finished.
And as soon as your lips disconnected you felt like you knew yourself for the very first time in your life, you werenât just a cheerleader, but you were also a girl with feelings, strong, sincere, special feelings for the very girl you cheer for every weekend and Thursdays from 3-5. Your lips were a little swollen and Lottieâs tinted lipstick was now painted onto your mouth, her eyes were wide yet blissful, she was too scared to make the first move out of the fear that you didnât like her back, yet this whole time you were fighting yourself, you donât need a dumb boy to make you feel complete, because that would never happen, you had a different desire, if many people didnât get that then screw them, you knew who you loved and that was Lottie fucking Matthews.
You went home that night feeling relieved and understood, now it was Saturday and you rolled over in your bed to turn off your alarm clock which was blaring right through your ears. You slammed the off button and as soon as you did so, you heard the doorbell ring to your front door, both of your parents were at work so you had to get out of your warm bed to answer it.
You hopped down the stairs and unlocked your front door, only to see the girl of your dreams. Your hair was a mess and you were in your pyjamas and she was fully dressed with perfectly styled hair and an adoring smile on her face. You could see her dads car outside as he waved over to you and you kindly waved back at him. âHey you.â She laughed as she recalled last night, after that song ended you and Lottie ran inside and made out in the bathroom for a half hour before your mom came to pick you up. âCouldnât stay away could you?â You joked as you allowed her to come inside your house, she turned on her heels back at you and breathed in through gritted teeth, a little disappointment in her eyes, but either way she smiled after it, âActually⊠you kind of stole my jacket last night and I would let you keep it, but my dad said he needs to dry clean itâŠâ as she spoke you closed your front door and Lottieâs hands immediately touched the hem of your shirt, fidgeting with it, your eyes went shocked at her knuckles touched your skin, you quickly kissed her neck before touching one of her hands and walked her up to your room, where the jacket remained.
âCanât you tell your dad to come back later?â You couldnât tell if your voice came across as joking or serious but either way you kind of meant it. You gave Lottie a tempting look but she lightly pushed you which only made you want her more, âHeâs a persistent man, I canât.â She kissed your temple as she took a hold of her jacket. âIâll see you tonight? Itâs the big game, the make or break to see if we get to nationals! And I need my girlfriend to cheer me on!â She whispered the last part with a smile on her face, making it more intimate, you laughed with her as you looked outside the window at her car, âDuh, wouldnât miss it for the world!â
There was 2 minutes left of the game, emotions were running high and all of the girls were stressed to the max. You held onto your fellow cheerleader Lexi as you nodded along with what the girls were doing on the pitch, you were so nervous for Lottie and you would still be proud of her regardless if they won or not. Natalie had the ball and here goesâŠshe kicks it and makes it into the net with 2 seconds left to spare, they won!
âGo Team!!!!â You and your squad cheered as you looked at your girlfriend, happier than ever to see you there to support her, the team gathered to each-other in a hug and you have never smiled so much in your entire life, since the beginning of the year you have cheered for Lottie and you will continue to do so right the way to nationalsâŠ
Hi! If youâre still taking requests, could you do a Lottie x reader where she gets a vision of her gf being injured so she stays by her side to protect her?
pairing: lottie matthews x reader
word count: 1238
notes and warnings: i did lottie a lil dirty in this one she is the embodiment of my anxiety in this fic. very mild TW for mentions of self harm (its just mentions of lottie cutting her hand to give the wilderness blood like in the show ykyk). also i promise i wasnt on crack writing the end of this w the cookies
It felt like you were being haunted by a second shadow.
You didnât really mind it. You loved every second you were able to spend with Lottie. But ever since youâd gotten up this morning sheâd been extra close to you, following you from room to room, sending you an excessive amount of texts to check on you between the classes you taught at the wellness center.
She had even gone with you to the farmers market, which, due to her great distaste for life outside the compound, tended to be an extremely rare occurrence. Even there she would hardly let you out of her sight, tried to carry everything for you, almost wouldnât let you drive and volunteered to instead, which you declined. She had been off somehow, all day. Anxious.
She got like that sometimes, you noticed. Whenever she saw something or met someone that reminded her of her time in the wilderness, or her time in Switzerland. There was a need on her end to be close to you, for in solitude was when the memories came. Normally you were fine with it. It was a privilege for you to give her the comfort she desired and needed.
But somehow, you thought that today was different. It wasnât just a desire to be close to you that had her by your side but something else accompanying it, as if she were worried about you, as if something might happen.
In the car on the way home from the farmerâs market, youâd finally had enough. She had again tried to stop you from driving, saying she was concerned about the traffic, but she had been so erratic all day that youâd seen right through the excuse.
âLottie,â you sighed, turning the car on and turning out of the parking lot, âwhatâs going on with you?â
She was silent, and you looked over to see her lost in thought, and you wondered if she had even heard you.
âLottie,â you said again.
She jumped, as if you had hurriedly woken her from sleep, and she met your gaze with slight alarm.
âAre you okay?â You asked, though you knew the answer.
âIâm fine,â she said, and even gave you a forced half-smile, and you were going to let the matter drop when you saw her tracing the scar on the palm of your hand â you knew what this always led to, the blood, the sacrifice.
You pulled the car over. You knew it was a bit of an overreaction, but the farmerâs market had been in complete chaos and with Lottieâs multiple attempts to keep you from driving, you were nearing your limit.
âLottie,â you said with all the patience you could muster, âyou need to tell me whatâs wrong. Please. Youâve been following me like a shadow all day, and while I love your company always, it feels like thereâs something else going on. If it involves me, I have to know, and if it doesnât, Iâd still like to know so I can help you.â
She didnât meet your gaze, just kept tracing the scar on her hand, almost like a child. Until suddenly she did look up, finally meeting your eyes, and you could see the terrible anxiety in her gaze. âThe visions came back,â she said simply.
You sighed. You never knew what to say about the visions. Part of you thought it was all in her head, that she needed to see a therapist about it, that they were delusions. But another part of you, a part of you that you tried to subdue, knew there was more to it than that. That something in the wilderness really had called to and captivated those who would listen, and that being had never truly left.
âWhat did you see?â You asked.
She hesitated, fingering through the slight tangles in her dark hair. âI saw you. And blood. You were cut, I think, Iâm not sure. But I didnât want you to get hurt. I think thatâs what it wants, blood.â She looked down at the scar on her hand. âIf I can just give it what it wants, maybeâŠâ
You shook your head, taking her hand. âIâm going to be fine. Maybe it wasnât a vision, maybe it was just a dream, or⊠I donât know. But nothingâs going to happen to me. Iâm right here. And you donât need to give it anything.â
âYou canât know for sure,â she said, her tone becoming increasingly ominous. âYou havenât seen what happens when we refuse to give it what it wants, if it feels neglected or suppressed.â
You didnât know what to say to that. The way she described it to you, the hunger of whatever being she believed watched her, was haunting. There was nothing you could have said to convince her that she was wrong, and part of you didnât really even know if she was.
You took her hand, shaking your head. âNothing is going to happen, okay? And even if something does happen, weâre prepared now, right?â You turned her hand, gesturing to her scar, which you could tell she had tampered with a little while ago. âPlease donât do this anymore.â
She attempted to protest, but saw the look you gave her, how deep your concern for her ran. She relented, nodding. âI wonât.â
You believed her, or at least as much as you could.
Attempting to lighten the mood, you reached into the backseat, pulling out a small paper bag. âAnyway, while you were going fucking ham on the macrame booth at the market, I got us these,â you said, opening the paper bag to reveal three cookies.
âShit,â you stopped, ripping your finger away from the bag. The bag had cut your finger, had given you a paper cut. The slightest bit of blood came up out of the cut, coating it, and suddenly it clicked in your mind. âLottie,â you said, smiling slightly, resisting a laugh. You showed her your finger, and she paused.
âOh my god,â she breathed, and you could tell the worry she wore was dissipating. âA fucking paper cut⊠I had a vision of you getting a fucking paper cut.â
âYour third eye needs to chill a bit,â you teased, and she smiled, rubbing her temples. âYou okay?â
Lottie nodded, chuckling. âJust give me one of those cookies.â
âI think I should have two of the three. I mean I did bleed for them, soâŠâ
âWell, you wouldnât have if you had listened to my warning.â
âSplit the cookie?â
âWhat kind are they?â She asked, genuinely invested in the custody of the third cookie.
âChocolate chip.â
She reached for the cookie. Chocolate chip was her favorite. âI think I deserve the whole thing, then.â
Quickly you took possession of the third cookie, holding it by your head, opening your mouth to take a bite.
âDonât you fucking dare.â
Deciding sheâd had enough of a rough day as it was, you obliged, splitting the cookie in half and giving her the half that was slightly bigger. âSee, you left me alone for a little while and came back to find me with cookies. Everything was fine.â
âYeah, but if Iâd been with you, we would have gotten four cookies and we wouldnât have had this horrible custody battle.â
âQuestioning my cookie buying skills, hm? I hope thereâs a paper cut in your future.â
