my sister’s wedding / j. seresin
Tumblr media
pairing: jake seresin x reader, best friend!reader x bradley bradshaw, bradley bradshaw x oc
summary: while you love your sister’s new husband bradley, you most certainly do not love his mouth but good looking co worker
Tumblr media
“I truly never thought I’d see me sister this happy until she met Bradley,” you were finishing off your maid of honor speech, laughing into the microphone. “They complete each other, if Sarah said she wanted to moon, Brad would do anything to get her the moon. Sarah traveled the world with him, seeing Japan, Florida, and sunny California. If anything proves true love, it’s these two. There’s no one I’d be happier to have as a brother, welcome to the family, Brad. And congratulations to you both!”
Bradley and Sarah gave you a hug, you laughed as Sarah had tears down her face. “Better take care of your wife, Bradshaw.” You teased, rubbing her back gently. You wandered over to the bar, swaying slightly as you waited in the long line.
“Beautiful speech up there,” the guy behind you spoke up. You smiled happily turning to meet his bright green eyes. He was taller than you wear, hair gelled into neat strokes. He was wearing a matching blue suit to your dress.
“Thanks! I’m Y/N, bride or groom?”
“Jake, I fly with Bradley.” He shook your hand. “What’re you drinking tonight, Y/N?”
“Strictly champagne for me! I’m on orders to make sure nobody gets plastered and ruins the wedding!”
“Well I’ll be on my best behavior. I’m a known wedding crasher.” He smirks as he orders a champagne for you.
“Ooh please share Lieutenant!” Your eyes lit up as you stared at him.
“I tend to leave a trail of broken hearts at these events. Especially military weddings.” Jake tipped the waiter and you walked towards the dance floor. You laughed at him as he explained one of his buddies weddings that he’d attended last month.
You learned all about his special name (he called it a call sign) and what had earned him that nickname. “In my defense, I’ve gotten better. That was like 10 years ago. I’ve been promoted since then too.”
“You’re something else, Jake.”
“Is that a good thing? Or should I be concerned?” He teased, leaning against the post beside you. You smiled up at him, a warm feeling covering your face.
“I’m still trying to decide myself!”
“Would a dance help you consider?” You laughed and grabbed his outstretched hand, setting down your drinks and allowing him to lead you out to the dance floor. A slow song played, one of the many Sarah and Brad had picked for their playlist.
“You know you’re not too bad of a dancer.”
“So my dancing skills are subpar, I’ve made you laugh like three times, and I’ve got a steady income, what else can a guy like me do to impress you?” He swayed you softly to the music, his hand resting on your waist gently.
“Ah the ultimate question. Real talk, Lieutenant, how often are you gone? Would you like a housewife or a spouse, and how many kids?” You quizzes him, gently brushing a strand of hair from your face.
To be honest, you hadn’t made your mind up about him yet. He was gorgeous and charming, and surprisingly nice but you almost needed to buy yourself more time to decide if you wanted him to break your heart or not.
“I go where the Navy calls, as of right now, we’re holding a permanent station out in Miramar. We haven’t been deployed for any missions besides the one but I believe that’s my new permanent base.” He raised his eye brows at you.
“That’s so convenient. I actually work in San Diego.” You informed him. He smiled at you.
“What do you do?”
“Pediatric doctor, I work in a hospital.”
“Impressive, how’d you decide to do that?”
“Helped me and Sarah through our childhood. She was sick a lot so we were in and out of hospitals. I saw what they did first hand and was just inspired. How about you? How do you wake up one day and just decide to fly a jet?”
“Well, Y/N, I’m a legacy. My dad did it, his dad before him did it and so on and so forth.” You nodded you head, watching him closely. The dimple in his cheek was showing up and he had the whitest teeth you’d ever seen.
“Staring awfully hard, darling, anything you’d like?” He teased, biting back a smirk. You rolled your eyes.
“You’re quite the charmer, Seresin.”
“Have I charmed you into a date yet?” You held up your fingers, signaling how close he was. “Ooh so close, do you need another compliment? Anymore questions I can answer?”
“One last thing: your thoughts on marriage.” You laughed lightly.
Jake looked over at Bradley and Sarah laughing and dancing with each other. “I think once you find your person, there’s nothing more romantic than making that kind of promise.” You smiled up at him, shaking your head.
“You just seem like the perfect man. Hiding any dangerous qualities under there? Or just the normal amount like the rest of us?”
“I’d say the normal amount.”
“Well you’ve persuaded me. Congratulations, are you free next Tuesday?”
“I’ll pick you up at 8.”

i wish you would / b. bradshaw
top gun master list
Tumblr media
pairings: bradley bradshaw x reader
warnings: mentions of death, breakup, angst
summary: bradley and you broke up ages ago, despite telling everyone it was a clean break up, you can’t help but wish you could take back the words that were said
Tumblr media
Bradley Bradshaw loved ferociously. He was passionate in every way and perhaps a little overbearing (he couldn’t help it, it was how he was raised). And he couldn’t help but want everything he had with you back.
You had to tell everyone that the breakup was clean. That the two of you ended on mutual terms, but when you requested a transfer from the squad and Bradley spent his nights getting wasted at the Hard Deck, people understood the truth.
Whatever had happened between you and Bradley Bradshaw had not be clean.
It was hard for the squad, to try and put together what had happened so suddenly to end such a loving relationship. You and Bradley had been together longer than anyone could have predicted and something truly hurtful must have happened to end your relationship.
Bradley had to admit, he hadn’t given you the proper space you required. And that he had pushed too far, much like he was always warned would happen. He wished he could take back his actions, relive the moments lining up to your relationships demise, but how could he when you hated him?
You had taken a sudden leave of absence when the Navy declined your transfer request. He hadn’t seen you in weeks. He couldn’t handle going cold turkey not seeing you. Not when his life had revolves around you for years on years.
His pain simply kept growing.
He wanted to know you forgave him. He wanted to be back in your arms and be loved by you once again.
Your relationship hadn’t always been traditional, the two of you were a crooked love in a straight line down. Never doing things the ways others would. And that’s what had made your love unique. Your relationship had moved as fast as it could, the two of you understood life had limits and it was not forever.
That’s why you loved Bradley. He understood things you always wished your lovers would. He was always there and would never willingly leave you.
That’s why it hurt so bad when you had to leave him.
You had left someone you loved in a fit of anger. You could not believe how quickly it had happened. How quickly you could change your image in another’s eyes.
After years of loving him, you made Bradley think you hated him.
Adapting to such a traumatic mission and your father dying just before that had your emotions all over the place. Bradley simply wanted to be there for you and you led him to believe you couldn’t stand to have him around.
You wish you had never let any of your words out, not to such a caring man like Bradley.
When you returned from your leave of absence, Bradley was obviously torn apart. The team wasn’t sure where to stand, they had only know the two of you together, apart there was no telling whose side they were on.
After days of work, you wished nothing more for things to be back as they were. You had destroyed your life and it’s evident you had to beg Bradley for second chance.
You walked down the hallway to his door, you heard his boots every night as he passed by. Knocking quietly, you waited for your love to open up.
“Y/N? What’s-“
“I wish you would come back. I wish I’d never said the things I said. I’d never hate you for as long as I live. I can’t live without you. And I’m so sorry I’ve caused you all this pain. I love you and I was just going through so much.
“I know that’s not an excuse, Bradley, but if you can’t have me back in your life, I just hope you can forgive me and forget me.” You pleaded, tears running down your face. Bradley had the softest smile on his face.
“I’d never forget you for as long as I’d live. I miss you too much to be mad anymore. I love you, Y/N.”
I hate the ending ! hope you enjoyed !

you are in love / j. seresin
masterlist
Tumblr media
pairing: jake seresin x reader
warnings: fluff
summary: jake reminds you how he feels about you while doing one of your favorite nighttime routines
a/n: I thought of this while listening to You are in love by Taylor Swift
Tumblr media
Laying in bed with Jake at the end of the night was your favorite. He wore the cutest glasses and the two of you would often spend the hour leading up to going to sleep by reading. They were the most peaceful moments you had together with such busy schedules.
Jake would never share how much these moments kept him going. The domesticity and the love put into your nighttime routine held such importance in his life.
Tonight, in particular, Jake had a rough day at work. His plane was grounded because of technical error so he was sentenced to paperwork the entire day. He thought Rooster and Coyote were going to crash and there was nothing he could do except listen over the radio.
So he laid his head on your chest, listening to the low rumble of you voice as you read to him. You balanced the book on his back with one hand while the other scratched his scalp.
You instantly picked up his sour mood when he came through the door, dropping all plans to make dinner, instead ordering takeout and eating it while the Cowboys played. Jake would spend all the time in his day with you but he only had so little time and enjoying what he had was all he could do.
When Jake’s breath evened out you continued to read in your head. You didn’t want to disturb his rest and he looked so peaceful you wouldn’t dare move him from on top of you.
You weren’t sure how long it was until Jake’s voice scared you off your page. “What happened to the book, baby?” He grumbled, voice groggy with sleep. You smiled, shutting the book and moving your other hand to his hair.
“You fell asleep, my love. I didn’t want to wake you.” Jake smiled softly, snuggling his body as close as he could possibly be. The silence lasted for several minutes, nothing but the sound of each other breaths. His sudden shifting shook you from your calm state. He was propped up, a strange look on his face. “What’s wrong Jake?” He paused, seemingly finding the words.
“You’re my best friend.” Jake’s eyes glistened with adoration in the minimal light cast in the room. He looked as though he had so many feelings for you in that moment.
You knew what it was, what had made him say that.
It was why you had memorized his takeout order. Why you could pick up on his bad moods and tough days. How he could make you smile simply by looking at you.
You were in love. And it was true love. The kind that anchored you together so precisely that the two of you could not imagine life without the other.
Jake and you had an intimate life and your relationship worked with being secure in your relationship. But Jake would make sure time and time again that you knew how much he meant to you.
His simple words nearly brought tears to your eyes, a soft smile falling onto your face.
“I love you so much, Jake Seresin.”

meet cute / b. bradshaw
Tumblr media
pairing: Bradley Bradshaw x reader
Warnings: angst (??)
summary: Bradley has always been hesitant about relationships, until he was willing to throw away his fear for you.
a/n: it’s short. I have some ideas for a part 2 with their date or relationship, just comment if you’d like one! also trying to clear out my drafts so I can start new imagines 🥴
Tumblr media
Bradley Bradshaw always imagined spending his life alone. With his dad’s untimely death and his mother’s devotion to loving him even after he was gone, Bradley never wanted to put anyone through that.
He can still remember the way his mom sobbed at night, and the Goose sized hole left in their family. He remembered going to school and hearing kids talk about their families and always wondering where his dad had gone.
By the time he was old enough to understand, the sobs had quieted to simple tears and he had his Uncle Mav. Maverick was Bradley’s stand in father. He would show up to school to pick him up when Carole couldn’t, he taught him how to play baseball and would show up to every single one of his games.
Bradley could only remember his father through stories. Maverick and Carole were pretty good at making sure Bradley was left with some ideas of how his father was like. Every night at dinner they would tell a Goose story and Bradley had his fair share of favorites
Carole died when Bradley was 17. Maverick was the only one he had at his graduation. He barely made it through his classes, he was orphaned a month before he turned 18.
But Bradley didn’t completely feel isolated until he found out Maverick pulled his papers. He can’t remember much about the night he found out, his anger had caused him to black out, but he remembered waking up in front of his father’s grace at 4:30 in the morning.
But Bradley was used to being alone, that’s what he’d gotten used to.
He didn’t want a family and he didn’t want a partner who he would leave behind when he inevitably died like his father had. A freak accident or a heroic act, Bradley didn’t want his partner feeling the way his mother had.
Every thought went out the window when he first met you.
You had this twinkle in your eyes and this pep in your step that made Bradley want to settle down in costal city with a dog, just by looking at you. He didn’t know how a person could ever be this conflicted with their feelings but he knew that he would give you anything you asked for.
He lost you in the crowd after becoming distracted. Disappointment sweeper through his body as he turned back a round on his barstool.
“Hey mustache boy, you gonna keep staring or are you gonna come talk to me?” He heard the voice call out to him. He turned around, you were perched on a barstool a couple of seats from him.
“Sorry about that sweetheart, I’ve been told I have a staring problem.” He smirked as he slide down tot he seat next to you. “What’s your name?”
“Y/N Y/L/N.”
“Well Y/n, I’m Bradley Bradshaw, it’s a pleasure to meet you.” He stuck his hand out and you shook it with a laugh. He made it his goal right then to do everything he could to make you laugh. “You’re unbelievably gorgeous.”
“And you are unbelievably cheesy!” You laughed. “Besides, I’m not looking for a hook up, Bradley.”
“And why’s that, Y/n?”
“I just turned 32, it’s time I settle down with a nice guy who can give me some kids of my own. Not some man with a mustache in a bar.”
“I’ll let you know that the mustache attracts dad appeal.” You smiled, taking a sip of your drink. “When can I take you out? On a real date, not a hook up.”
“You looking for a family, Bradley?”
And for the first time in his life. “I don’t know what I’m looking for.”
“Bradley, are you looking to settle down or not?” You were very attracted to the man but he was annoying you.
“I never thought I would, growing up. But it’s gonna sound weird to say that I can see myself having a life with you.” He spoke sheepishly.
“It does sound a little weird, but I’ll let it slide until after our date.”
any requests? dm me!

labyrinth / jake seresin
Tumblr media
pairing: jake seresin x reader
warnings: mentions of sex, cursing
summary: there’s a reason jake keeps his relationships at a one night limit. when he meets you, he seems to forget any reason not to fall in love.
Was listening to Taylor Swift’s Labyrinth for inspiration <3
Tumblr media
Jake Seresin had a reputation.
Between his coworkers who had just recently stopped hating him and the girls who instantly turned around when they heard his call sign, Jake was known for his sexual affairs. It’s not that he was ashamed about it, he didn’t try to hide his slutty tendencies.
He would take a new girl home every night, never committing to any of them. He figured he could save himself the pain of heartbreak and arguments.
Until her met you.
Jake had started watching the door around 7 when people started flowing into the bar. The Hard Deck was relatively packed tonight, it was a Friday and the dagger squad had decided to go out to celebrate the end of the week.
He would watch customers flow in each night and spot his hook up. His eyes stayed hooked on the door, waiting for a girl to catch his eye, for anything interesting.
When you walked in, Jake’s world stopped. He toned out the conversation he was having with Fanboy and met your beautiful eyes from across the building. Your smile made him forget every reason why he only slept with girls.
“Find your catch of the night, Hangman?” Rooster teased, catching the way Jake was watching you from across the bar.
“Shut up, Rooster.” Jake was already walking towards you by the time he finished. He saw your friends all gesture towards him and he made himself stand taller. “Excuse me?” You turned at the sound of his voice, a smile on your face.
“What can I help you with Lieutenant?”
“Well, I just wanted to see if I could buy you a drink?” Jake smiled nervously. He usually never got this nervous around girls.
“I already have one, Lieutenant.” You were charmed but his gorgeous face. You assumed he was as cocky as some previous aviators have been before but the adoration in his eyes had you enthralled. “I’m Y/N.”
You stuck out your hand for him to shake. “Hangman.” You raised en eyebrow, a half smile on your face.
“Your real name, Hangman.” You teased, leaning towards him.
“Jake Seresin.” He tried to shake himself of his nerves while taking a seat beside you. “Tell me about yourself, Y/N.”
“I work in pediatrics, I’m a Gemini, 32 years old. I was born and raised in Nevada, mom’s a Commander in the Navy, what about you, Jake?”
“I fly planes for the Navy, I’m a Libra, 33 years old. Born and raised in Texas, family’s been in the Navy longer than you can imagine.” You smiled at his description.
“Well, Hangman, looks like we have a lot in common.”
“Can I get you another one of those, Y/N?” You hadn’t even realized you finished your drink when he asked.
“I would love that, Jake.” You nodded. “I actually have a better idea, do you wanna get out of here?” His face seemed to fall at your question.
“I’m sorry Y/N but I’m not really looking for a one night stand. I’m-“ you laughed, shaking your head.
“To get dinner, Jake. Would you like to go get dinner with me?”
“I would love that, Y/N.” You stood up and grabbed his hand.
“Hey! Wrap it before you tap it, Bagman!” His group of friends shouted with laughter.
“Oh we will!” You shouted back with a wink.
Jake Seresin had definitely found his match.
dm me with requests! hope you enjoyed!
