BIRTHDAY BOY ~Ben Shelton
Pairing: ben shelton x gn reader
Warnings: kiss(is that even a warning?)
Nine of October. Ben's birthday.
You were in your country for one of his tournaments this week.
He was so excited, he wanted to win even more, to give a present to himself. And the fact that you're here to support him lights up in his heart pure joy and pride.
It's almost midnight, almost his birthday. You made him stay up even if he was exhausted after a long and tiring match to wish him a happy birthday the second the clock will say it's the ninth.
You were waiting impatiently with him in your hotel room, with a little protein cake you bought in the afternoon (he'd eat a traditional cake but he needs to stay healthyđ) and a countdown up on your computer.
*11:57 pm*
Ben groans and lays down
âBabe I'm so tired can't we go to sleep and you'll wish me a happy birthday in the morning?â He whines
âNo, love. I want to do it at midnight!â You reply, he smiles and chuckles tiredly to your excitement
âYou're impossibleâ he jokes, he loves that you're so determined sometimes you don't listen to everyone. He likes your stubbornness, sometimes.
âYou love itâ you tease him, you know that if he really wanted to go to sleep he would have. But he wanted you to give him a birthday kiss at midnight too, so he pretended to be too exhausted just to see you annoyed and determined.
*11:58 pm*
He puts a hand on your shoulder and pushes you in a played position on the comfy bed, he lays on his elbow and tries to kiss you
âNo, not yetâ you scold him and pinch his cheek
âWhat? Whyyyyy? Then when? Cmon give me a kiss, beautifulâ he pleas
âAt midnight, handsomeâ you pop his nose with the tip of your index finger, smiling as he pouts
*11:59 pm*
âJust one more minute and you can kiss me how much you wantâ you tell him
âOh yeah? How much I want?â He smirks and teases you, it'll be a long night.
âYes but since you're so exhausted I expected just a fewâ you play along
âOh baby, seems like I'm not that exhausted after all..â He smiles like a child. That stupid smile you fell in love with.
You get up and start to record him with the cake on his lap
*00:00*
He smiles and blow the candles, looking at you, even if he should look in the camera.
âHappy birthday, babyâ you say and stop the video. He immediately puts the cake on the nightstand and pulls you by your waist on his lap.
âThank you, babe, nowâŠwhere's my kiss?â He smiles and pulls you into a sweet kiss
He cups your chin and deepens the kiss, his tongue licking your lower lip to get access and dance with yours. His other arm is hugging your waist and tracing your side in soft circles.
When he pulls away to breath you can speak âmy birthday boyâŠâ you whisper, your foreheads are touching and you're making eye contact, you pull him into another kiss.
I don't need to specify that it will be indeed a long night.

MATCHING HALLOWEEN OUTFITS ~Ben Shelton
Pairings: ben shelton x female reader
Warnings: uhhh...non? Kiss?
A/N: Happy halloween everyone!!! Short but cute, right? Love this one
Special tag: @dialedins luv you
The first thing you tought about when you saw your best friends Halloween costume matching with her boyfriend was to do it with ben too.
So that's why you're here now, 10pm, Paris, on the king size bed in your hotel. Ben exhausted from the season. All the matches he played and the flights. He was resting while hugging your side, his eyes heavy and body sore. You were with your computer on your lap, looking for matching outfits.
âBabe look at theseâ you ruffle his hair to wake him up.
Two costumes, one, the female one, being Natasha Romanoff, the tight zip on suit and the red wig, the male one being bucky Barnes, suit and sleeve for the metal arm.
His eyes opens wide when he sees the Natasha one. He liked the characters and their love story in the comics, but her suit was exactly like the actual one. Tight and revealing(without all the zip on), so that means part of your, amazing, breasts would show. That's a no-no for ben. He only gets to see them.
âNo way babe that's too revealing in not letting you go out with that onâ he shakes his head, then put it back on your chest, his other hand coming up to squeeze one of your breasts possessively
âNobody can see themâ he affirms.
He gets back to rest.
âThis ones, love?â You call him
It was art and tashi from challengers, you alredy have the rackets and similar clothes, so why not?
âBut I'm not blonde, babyâ he says
âYou can still dress up as Patrickâ
âNah, I'm on team artâ
He declines the idea. He alredy thinks about tennis too much. If you give him a racket while going out in matching costumes he'd be practicing with the air all the time.
âThese?â
The narrator and marla from fight club.
âFight club, huh? Good movie (and book!!) But I don't want to dress uppppâŠi hate tiesâ
âYou're so stubborn! It's just for one night!â You reply, but he doesn't change idea.
âJoker and Harley?â You propose
âNah, too revealing for you and I don't want any make upâ
âNo make up??? WhatttâŠbut it's Halloween!â
âBabe I promise you next year well do anything you want, okay? But now I'm tiredâ
You give up.
Now it's Halloween. You ended up dressing as the couple from subway surfers, you're still upset because it's a cheap and no effort costume and you wanted to do something amazing, something from tim Burton maybe.
You were wearing a white top, blue jeans, air forces and a red cap. Ben was matching but with a grey hoodie and a sleeveless jeans jacket.
âLook at us, babe, we look so goodâ ben says, you pout. You didn't wanted this costumes.
âOhhh cmon love don't be stubborn, next year we'll do whatever you want, okay?â He cups your face and take off your sunglasses.
He kisses you, softly, showing his love, and mumbling the promise he just told you, so that it can't be broken

After a long day of training, Ben invites the reader for a romantic evening under the stars in his backyard. With fairy lights twinkling overhead and a cozy picnic set up, they enjoy each otherâs company, share dreams, and strengthen their bond. As the night deepens, heartfelt confessions lead to a passionate moment that brings them even closer together.
The sun had just set, painting the sky in hues of orange and pink as you stepped into Ben's backyard. A soft breeze rustled the leaves of the trees, and you felt an undeniable warmth as you took in the romantic scene before you. Fairy lights twinkled above, casting a soft glow over the picnic blanket laid out on the grass, surrounded by an array of your favorite snacks.
âHey, you made it!â Ben called, his voice filled with genuine excitement as he turned from the cooler, where he was pulling out drinks. He looked relaxed in a fitted T-shirt and shorts, his hair slightly tousled from practice.
âOf course! You think Iâd miss an invitation from you?â you replied with a playful grin, your heart fluttering at the sight of him.
He moved closer, wrapping his arms around you and pulling you into a warm embrace. The familiar scent of his cologne mixed with the evening air made you feel at home. âI was hoping youâd come,â he murmured against your hair.
As you settled onto the blanket, Ben poured you both glasses of sparkling water, the bubbles rising playfully. You started munching on your favorite snacks, sharing stories and laughing about the dayâs training.
After a while, the conversation turned more serious. Ben leaned back on his hands, looking at you with an intensity that made your heart race. âYou know, Iâve been thinking about how much you mean to me,â he began, his voice soft yet steady.
You met his gaze, curiosity and anticipation swirling inside you. âWhat do you mean?â you asked, your heart pounding in your chest.
He took a deep breath, his eyes never leaving yours. âI donât just see you as my girlfriend. Youâre my partner, my support. You make me better on and off the court, and I canât imagine my life without you.â
His words sent a rush of warmth through you, making your cheeks flush. âI feel the same way, Ben. Youâve brought so much joy into my life, and I canât help but fall for you more every day.â
He smiled, a genuine, heartfelt smile that made your heart flutter. âI want to build a future with you. I want us to experience everything together, the highs, the lows, and all the in-between moments that make life special.â
You felt tears of happiness prick at your eyes as you took in his confession. âI want that too. Iâve never felt this way about anyone before.â
In that moment, the world faded away, and it was just the two of you beneath the stars. Ben leaned in, capturing your lips in a soft, lingering kiss. It was tender yet passionate, conveying all the love and affection you shared. When you pulled back, your foreheads resting against each other, you couldnât help but smile.
âMaybe we should do this more often,â you suggested, your voice light with affection.
Ben chuckled softly, brushing a strand of hair behind your ear. âDefinitely. How about we make it a weekly thing? Just you and me, under the stars?â
âIâd love that,â you said, feeling a sense of contentment wash over you.
As you leaned back, resting against his shoulder, the night deepened around you, filled with laughter, whispers, and promises for the future. In that moment, surrounded by the warmth of his presence, you knew this was exactly where you belonged.
Please write more Ben Shelton fluff? Smth like you being a pro tennis player, maybe even ranked a bit higher in womenâs tennis and teaming up for a mixed doubles and itâs super cute and flirty and accidental physical touches like hand holding or brushing hands etc or after winning sets he hugs you tight or pecks your cheek etc stuff like that??? Thank youu
omg first request?? loved writing this
The stadium lights shone bright as the mixed doubles match was about to begin. You glanced over at Ben Shelton, already grinning as he bounced on the balls of his feet, adjusting his racket. Ranked 13th in the world, he had that natural confidence that made everything look effortless, but it was the unspoken chemistry between you two that made this match interesting.
âReady to carry me?â Ben asked, flashing you a playful smile, the corners of his eyes crinkling.
You raised an eyebrow, laughing softly. âCarry you? Pretty sure Iâm ranked higher, remember?â
His grin widened. âTouchĂ©.â
The banter eased the tension, but as the match kicked off, it was game on. The two of you moved in perfect sync, rallying back and forth with your opponents, but every now and then, thereâd be a soft brush of skin, an accidental touch that left you hyperaware of his presence.
At one point, you both lunged for the same ball, and your fingers tangled. His hand wrapped briefly around yours, sending a spark up your arm.
âDidnât mean to steal your shot,â he teased, though his fingers lingered just a little too long.
You rolled your eyes, though a small smile tugged at your lips. âYou can leave the shots to me, Shelton.â
The match was neck-and-neck, but you both held your ground, with Ben hyping you up between points. âYouâre unreal out here,â he murmured after a particularly tough volley.
His voice was soft, and for a second, you almost forgot you were in the middle of a match. âFocus, Shelton,â you reminded him, though your own heart was racing faster than usual.
When the two of you won the first set, Ben turned to you immediately, arms wide open. Before you could react, he pulled you into a tight hug, the warmth of his body catching you off guard. âWeâre on fire!â he whispered in your ear, his breath sending shivers down your spine. And just like that, he pressed a quick peck to your cheek, so fast you werenât sure it even happened. But judging by the smug look on his face, it definitely did.
âWas that necessary?â you asked, trying to keep your cool, though the blush creeping up your neck betrayed you.
âAbsolutely,â he winked.
In the second set, things heated up even more. You could feel the eyes of the crowd, but all your attention was on Ben. His constant encouragement, his little laughs when you made a great shot, and the way heâd nudge your shoulder every time you passed each other.
And then, during one particularly intense point, you both dashed towards the net at the same time. You barely managed to return the ball when you collided with him, chest-to-chest. The ball went out of bounds, but neither of you moved, standing frozen in place, faces inches apart.
âGuess we make a good team, huh?â Ben said, voice low, his eyes locked on yours.
You swallowed, feeling the heat of his body so close to yours. âYeah,â you breathed out, barely able to focus.
When you won the second set and the match, Ben wasted no time. Before the crowd even started cheering, he wrapped his arm around your waist, pulling you close again. âGuess Iâm lucky to have the worldâs best partner,â he said softly, his voice a little more serious now, as he pressed another kiss to your cheek, this one lingering longer than the first.
The crowd roared, but all you could think about was the way Benâs hand felt on your waist and how he seemed a little reluctant to let go.
