NOBODY

comfort — chris x shy!fem!reader

synopsis: chris is tired of y/n letting her friends push her around

tags: sorta friends to lovers vibes, use of y/n, use of pet names, cursing, bad friends LMAO and kinda long

a/n: request from here! also sorry if ur name is lily… oopsie

“and i don’t want your pity, i just want somebody near me.”

“you’re joking, right?” lily laughed, looking between y/n and josh. “i mean, you can’t possibly believe that.”

the trio sat in the mall’s food court, picking at their fries and sipping their watered down sodas. they had decided to go to the mall after lily had practically begged, and with josh being the only one with a drivers license, y/n had nothing better to do than tag along.

from an outsiders perspective, that’s how it seemed most of the time. lily sat front and center, dragging josh along while y/n followed them like a lost puppy. she didn’t mind, though, since lily had been her friend since kindergarten and it made sense for her. ever since they were little, y/n had always been a lot quieter compared to lily. she’d rather follow along than organize things herself. it’s just how she operated.

josh had only become apart of their duo halfway through high school, and she was pretty sure the only reason was because he had a gigantic crush on lily… not that she would ever acknowledge it.

it’s just how it was.

it’s how it worked for y/n.

“i dunno,” y/n stirred her straw around her empty plastic cup. “it seemed pretty believable. you know, there was this post I saw the other day, and it said—“

“literally no one cares.” lily rolled her eyes playfully, although her tone betrayed her. “anyways, as i was saying—“ she grabbed a fry, taking a bite mid-sentence. “hey… isn’t that—?”

“hey guys!” a voice called from behind y/n, one she quickly clocked to belong to chris. she turned around, her eyes widening as she saw both him and matt approaching. “we just dropped nick off at madi’s… thought we’d stop by because matt saw these cool pants online, and we need stuff for tonight, so he wanted—“

“dude.” matt glared at his brother, shaking his head. “you don’t have to tell them our whole life story, it’s okay.”

y/n smiled at their interaction. she’d always liked the triplets, although they weren’t super close in school, they had always been nice to her. nick partnered up with her in chemistry, and eventually introduced her to his brothers when he convinced her to come get ice cream with them after class.

since then, y/n had always been friendly with them when she saw them. though they were busy boys, with their careers skyrocketing and all.

chris quickly slid in and found a seat beside y/n, tossing his arm over the back of her chair. of all the boys, chris had always been the one to push y/n out of her comfort zone. not in a bad way, of course, but he always seemed able to give her a tiny boost of confidence.

matt on the other hand stayed standing off to the side, briefly dapping josh up before nodding. “hey, im gonna’ go pick that stuff up, but ill be back in like, 10.” he glanced around the table, eyes landing on his brother. “are you coming?”

“nah,” chris stretched his legs out, getting more comfortable before reaching over and grabbing a fry out of y/n’s container. “ill hang out here til you’re done.”

matt paused, looking towards y/n. “you okay to babysit?” he gestured to his brother.

“oh, fuck off,” chris snapped, rolling his eyes before shoving a fry in his mouth. matt left, leaving the four sat still in the food court.

“sooo, chris,” lily started, leaning forward on her elbows. her body language changed completely, and y/n wasn’t sure why it bothered her so much. “what’ve you been up to today?”

“nothing really,” the boy replied, seemingly bored. he shifted his attention to y/n, a smile breaking out on his face. “we’re planning on filming tonight, so we were just picking up some stuff. pretty boring, but if you wanted to stop by later, then—“

lily laughed. like she really laughed.

y/n looked up with a confused expression, so did josh, who had been too preoccupied with a game on his phone. chris on the other hand had furrowed his eyebrows, quite annoyed with the interruption.

“sorry, sorry,” she sighed, still laughing. “i was just thinking about a really stupid thing y/n was talking about earlier. she just like, kept going on, and josh and i were like, girl what are you even saying! it was sooo funny, chris.”

chris looked between the girls, stopping at y/n. “what was it?” he asked, but y/n shook her head. “what were you talking about that was ‘sooo funny’?”

it was clear in his tone that he was mimicking lily, although she clearly didn’t pick up on it.

“who even cares!” lily sighed dramatically. “like, y/n babes, love you, but seriously, how could you possibly expect anyone to want to talk to you when you just carry on like that?”

she looked over at josh who gave her a disappointed look, to which she shrugged. “whattt, im just looking out for her!”

“well,” chris crossed his arms over his chest, leaning towards y/n. “i think you’ve got interesting things to say.”

y/n felt her cheeks heat up, which only flustered her more. chris had always been sweet to her, and she appreciated it, but something about his closeness now sent butterflies to her tummy. she nodded and mumbled a shy thanks, her eyes darting to a quite irritated looking lily.

“oh, please,” lily groaned, “she’s a big girl, chris. there’s no need to lie.”

“do you mind?” chris snapped, glaring at the girl across from him. “literally, who is even talking to you right now.”

lily stammered, her eyes wide in shock at his sudden outburst that she somehow didn’t expect. josh finally abandoned the game on his phone only to become lily’s knight in shining armour. “c’mon man, she’s just joking around.”

“no way,” chris retorted, sitting up straighter. “every single time i’m with y/n, around you guys, all you do,” he pointed at lily, “is belittle her, and try to embarrass her, and i’m sick of it.”

“chris, it’s fine.” y/n finally spoke up, grabbing softly onto his shoulder. a scene and confrontation was the last thing she wanted today. sure, things weren’t perfect, but they worked for y/n. “she’s just joking.”

“no, y/n. it’s not fine.” chris pulled out of her grasp, looking at her as if she was crazy. “you can’t sit here and tell me that you aren’t hurt by her words. I’ve seen your face, i can tell.”

y/n tried to muster up some kind of defence, but she fell flat. he was right.

lily had been picking on her since the beginning of their friendship, and at first y/n thought it was just her ‘thing’. but as they grew up, the insults felt a lot more personal. especially when it came to chris.

“ex-fucking-actly.” he looked towards lily, who sat a little closer to josh. “you are a pathetic excuse for a friend.”

“me? pathetic?” lily snapped back, her eyes darting between chris and y/n. “what about the one who isn’t even fighting her own battles? that’s what i would call pathetic.”

y/n felt her fists ball up, and her jaw clench. maybe it was the small confidence boost chris seemed to give her, or the fact his words made something shift in her brain, but she wouldn’t stand for this anymore.

“you know what? chris is right.” y/n spoke in the strongest voice she could, sitting up with her back straight. as soon as she started to speak, she felt the soft touch of chris’ hand on her knee, which only fueled her energy more. “you are an awful friend. you have been an awful friend. and i will not put up with it anymore.”

with that, y/n started to shove her things into her bag, missing the proud smile on chris’ face. “really? after everything… that’s it?” lily’s tone had changed drastically, as this clearly wasn’t the outcome she expected.

“yep.” y/n popped the p, aggressively pulling her bag over her shoulder. “delete my number.”

she stood, and so did chris, who also grabbed the remaining fries from lily’s container. they both turned to begin walking away, ignoring lily’s calls after them.

as soon as they left the food court area, y/n began to shake. the adrenaline that pumped through her veins began to leave as she realized what she’d done. chris took notice of her body language and pulled her to the side.

“hey, hey,” he lower his head closer to her level, trying to keep eye contact. “that was incredible. im so proud of you for doing that.”

“what if it was a mistake?” y/n spoke frantically, looking over her shoulder towards where they had came from.

chris quickly grabbed onto her jaw and turned her back to face him, a serious look on his face. “no, no it wasn’t a mistake, y/n. she treated you like shit, and im glad that you finally noticed it. you deserve so much more… so much better than that, angel.”

she was taken aback by his soft tone, but nodded nonetheless, feeling her anxieties subside at his words. “i guess so.”

“and i know so.” he assured, grabbing her shoulder and sliding her bag off of it, throwing it onto his own. “now let’s go find matt before he walks back into that shitshow… yeah?”

Always yours | Chris Sturniolo

Chris Sturniolo x reader

Summary: Where Y/N and Chris are secretly in love, but Chris is the one that acts shy around her; OR 4 times Chris loved Y/N from afar and 1 time he didn't.

Warning: None.

Requested?: Yes, by anon.

Author's note: That is my work, I DON'T authorize any plagiarism! | English isn't my first language, so I'm sorry if there's any grammar error.

༻✦༺ 　༻✧༺　༻✦༺

Y/N and Nick had been inseparable since they were children, having grown up together in Boston, their bond of friendship was the strongest among all others. Nick was the type of boy who exuded energy and extroversion, while Y/N was more thoughtful and quiet, and the two of them fit together perfectly.

So, when the triplets decided to move to Los Angeles to better advance their career on YouTube, the girl went with them. Her high school years were over, and, as luck would have it, she had received her acceptance letter to the LA college she wanted to attend.

Obviously, her closeness with Nick throughout her life brought her close to Matt and Chris equally, as the three of them came as a complete package to any relationship, regardless of which trype it was.

The only difference was that with Chris, things were different. A strange and unfamiliar feeling grew more and more inside Y/N's heart whenever he was around, making her blush and stumble over her own words. It didn't take her long to realize that she was madly in love with the youngest triplet, but the fear of rejection prevented her from confessing her feelings.

What Y/N didn't know was that Chris also had deep feelings for her. However, he was also paralyzed by the fear of ruining his friendship with Y/N, or worse, destabilizing the girl's friendship with his brother if his feelings weren't reciprocated. So the two were content to flirt shyly and exchanging furtive glances and meaningful smiles that spoke volumes about their feelings.

But there was something more, something that everyone but Y/N seemed to notice. When she was around, Chris transformed completely. His posture softened, his smile became more genuine, and his eyes shone with a special tenderness reserved just for her. He became more embarrassed and cautious, as if he was afraid of messing up in front of the person he secretly loved.

༻﹡﹡﹡﹡﹡﹡﹡༺

1. Shyness

The sun was beginning to peek shyly through the window curtains when Y/N woke up. She snuggled under the sheets for a moment, enjoying the feeling of comfort. With a soft yawn, the girl got up from the bed and stretched momentarily before putting on the Fresh Love hoodie that was on her gaming chair, throwing her hair up in a quick ponytail.

Y/N walked down the stairs of the floor she shared with Nick towards the kitchen, following the tempting aroma of fresh coffee and warm toast.

Inside the kitchen, Matt was talking about a movie he watched the night before, Saltburn, while Chris laughed loudly at the faces of disgust and strangeness Nick displayed at certain scenes.

"Wait, you reminded me of a TikTok I saw yesterday!" Exclaimed Chris, his eyes shining with excitement. "It was from a guy who apparently wrote a song about a girl who looks innocent but ha-"

Before he could continue, Y/N entered the room with a smile on her face.

"Good morning, boys!"

Chris's face instantly turned a bright shade of red, and he swallowed hard, abruptly stopping talking. He looked down at his plate with a sudden intensity, as if he were trying to concentrate on each bite of his food.

"Good morning, Y/N." Nick smiled, breaking the brief moment of awkward silence. Matt just nodded, chewing on the piece of toast he had in his mouth.

Y/N approached the counter behind the table, noticing the sudden discomfort in the air but choosing not to comment on it.

"What was the TikTok about, Chris?" She asked softly with her back turned to them, standing on tiptoes and opening one of the cabinets above the stove, retrieving her favorite mug.

"I... Um." He fake coughed, clearing his throat. "I think I... forgot." The last word came out in a subtle whisper.

Y/N smiled, feeling the skin of her face burn at the thought of how shy the boy became in her presence, shaking her head quickly to shake off the thoughts when Nick started talking again, bringing up another topic.

༻﹡﹡﹡﹡﹡﹡﹡༺

2. Admiring from afar

The Space Camp Wellness studio was filled with vibrant energy as Nick, Chris, Matt, and Y/N prepared for yet another promotional photo shoot. Nick, as the founder of the lip balm brand, was busy adjusting the final details, while Y/N was preparing to be one of the models in that series of pictures that would be used to promote the new line.

Sitting on the other side of the room, Chris, Matt, and Nick exchanged hushed murmurs among themselves, discussing the details of what the next steps for Nick's brand would be. However, to Chris, the sounds seemed distant, completely muffled to his ears.

His eyes remained fixed on the girl, watching every movement she made as she changed her positions. He couldn't shake the feeling that the whole world seemed brighter when she was around, his heart beating wildly against his chest.

"Chris, you're drooling again." Matt teased, giving the boy a playful poke in the shoulder.

Chris blinked, brought back to reality by his words. He blushed slightly, embarrassed at being caught.

"Shut the fuck up, I'm not drooling." He barked back, trying to hide his flushed state.

"Oh, come on, Chris. Everyone knows you're head over heels in love with Y/N." Nick laughed loudly, exchanging knowing glances with Matt.

Chris squirmed uncomfortably in his seat, trying to find a suitable response to his brothers' teasing. He knew he couldn't deny his feelings for Y/N, but he also didn't want to make the situation more awkward than it already was.

"You two are ridiculous." He grumbled, looking at Y/N again.

His eyes widened when he saw her already watching them, her gaze carrying a curiosity as to why they were laughing so loud - not that it was something strange coming from the brothers.

The brunette quickly turned his neck to the side, focusing his eyes on a random place while scratching his stubble, gulping loudly.

༻﹡﹡﹡﹡﹡﹡﹡༺

3. Acts of service

The frigid air of Boston circulated Y/N as she walked alongside the triplets, enveloped by the welcoming atmosphere of their hometown. The night was particularly cold, with a biting breeze that made everyone shrink into themselves for warmth.

"Oh my God, it's so cold!" Y/N commented, rubbing her arms in an attempt to warm them a little.

Chris, who was next to her on the outside of the sidewalk, immediately noticed her cheeks flushed by the wind. He frowned, feeling a tightening of concern in his chest when he saw her body shaking slightly, being covered only by a long-sleeved blouse and thin leggings.

"Here." The boy said, taking off his hockey jersey and offering it to her. "You can use this to protect yourself from the cold."

Y/N widened her eyes in surprise, stopping her steps abruptly.

"But what about you, Chris? You're going to be cold-" Chris shook his head, cutting her off.

"Don't worry about me. I can handle the cold better than you can. Besides, you need to stay warm or you will cath the flu."

Finally convinced, but still reluctant, Y/N accepted the jersey, feeling the comforting warmth that emanated from the fabric as she took it in her hands. She smiled wide at Chris, slipping it over her shoulders, his Dior parfume automatically filling her nostrils, warming her heart.

Chris watched in silence as Y/N wrapped herself in his jersey, name and number clearly visible on her back, lightly covered by the strands of her loose hair. An intense blush took over his cheeks, a feeling of heat different from the cold taking over his body.

He felt his heart speed up to a thousand miles per hour, pressing his lips into a thin line to stop the involuntary smile.

"It looks good on you. Better than on me."

༻﹡﹡﹡﹡﹡﹡﹡༺

4. Distraction

The kitchen of the triplets' house was full of energy as the brothers prepared to record another Wednesday video for their YouTube channel. Nick adjusted the camera and arranged the equipment while Chris and Matt arranged themselves in the two chairs behind the wooden table, facing the tripod.

Chris, especially, was beaming with enthusiasm, his words flowing with energy as he addressed the camera after Nick positioned himself behind the two, giving the go-ahead to begin recording.

"What's up, guys? Welcome back to our YouTube channel! Today, we have a-"

He was in the middle of introducing the theme when Y/N passed through the divide between the living room and kitchen, her hands holding her phone and her eyes fixed on the screen, heading towards the stairs that led to her shared floor with Nick.

Chris's gaze instinctively shifted towards her, his heart racing almost automatically as his pupils seemed to take the shape of a little heart, his eyes following her every step and his mouth opening slightly.

His brothers, noticing Chris's sudden distraction, began laughing, teasing him as he struggled to regain focus.

"Wow, Chris, I think someone's a little distracted." Matt, who was sitting next to him, joked, receiving a hard slap on the shoulder in response.

Chris blushed a red hue, embarrassed at being caught. He rubbed the back of his neck, trying to hide his state as he tried to remember what he was about to say.

"Hm..." He cleared his throat, still a little disconcerted. "Where did I stop?"

Nick laughed louder, stumbling back and slamming his back against the stove, cursing loudly as he tried to steady his balance.

"You were talking about the challenge we're going to do today, but I think you were more interested in keeping up with Y/N than recording the video." Matt scoffed, smirking to the lens.

Chris shook his head, adjusting the cap over his hair in an act of nervousness, his mind still a little clouded by the sight of Y/N.

Needless to say, he got almost every picture of the challenge wrong, his mind replaying the image of the girl he loved over and over for the rest of the day.

༻﹡﹡﹡﹡﹡﹡﹡༺

5. When he finally makes a move

The night silently enveloped the house, as Chris found himself lost in his own thoughts, his body lying flat on his bed and his eyes fixed on the ceiling. He knew it was time to finally confront his feelings for Y/N and express the love he had been secretly holding onto for so long. However, he was feeling completely lost on how to do it.

With his heart beating wildly in his chest, the boy decided to seek advice from Matt. His brother always knew what to say. Chris walked quickly up the stairs, going to Matt's bedroom door, knocking gently with his closed fist against the wood before turning the handle, opening it.

"Matt?" He asked, his voice slightly shaking with anxiety as his eyes darted around the room, quickly finding the boy in his gaming chair, playing something on his computer. "Can I talk to you?"

Matt looked up, frowning in concern when he noticed the boy's distressed eyes.

"Of course, did something happen?"

Chris entered the room, closing the door behind him and walking over to the bed, sitting on the edge in front of his computer desk.

"Nothing happened, I just... need some advice." Chris began, scratching the back of his neck in embarrassment at being so vulnerable. "I've finally accepted that I love Y/N, but I don't know how to tell her... I'm scared of ruining everything, Matt."

Matt smiled slightly, taking the headphones off his head and placing it on the keyboard before moving the chair so that he was facing Chris.

"Why don't you write her a letter?" Matt shrugged, crossing his arms and watching his reactions.

"A letter? Isn't that too old-fashioned?" The youngest frowned, pushing his bangs back with his right hand, expanding his vision.

"With every girl you've ever been with, you've always been direct, unrestricted, and unromantic. But with Y/N it's different, right?"

"She's not just another one, Matt." Chris rolled his eyes, feeling disgusted as he remembered all the times that he tried to erase his feelings for Y/N.

"Exactly, so treat her like she isn't, be romantic and different, surprise her."

It took days for Chris to finally have the courage to open his heart in a letter. He wasn't used to revealing his feelings often, so writing them down on paper was harder than it seemed. But the day finally arrived, and surprisingly, it didn't take more than an hour for Chris to finish his words.

The brunette spent the rest of that day wandering around his room while carrying the letter hidden in the front pocket of his hoodie, looking for the ideal moment to give it to Y/N.

His courage to hand it to her face to face was almost non-existent, and that's why he used the only moment when the girl moved from her room to Nick's. With shaking hands, he placed the letter on Y/N's bed, leaving it in a place where she would certainly find it.

One last look at it, and Chris turned abruptly, running back to his own room with his face flushed with shyness and anxiety.

Meanwhile, Y/N returned to her room, unaware of the surprise that awaited her. Her heart beat with strange anticipation as she approached, immediately noticing the letter carefully left there.

Hesitantly, Y/N took it, feeling the weight of the paper in her hands. She took a deep breath before opening it, her eyes widening comically as she recognized the handwriting, her eyes running quickly through the words with a mix of surprise and excitement.

As she read Chris's passionate declaration, Y/N's heart seemed to expand in her chest, overflowing with all the best feelings.

To my Y/N,

I am completely sure that I have loved you since the moment I understood the meaning of the word love. I remember the day I noticed that I felt something different about you; we were 14 years old and you showed up at our house to spend the day with Nick, and as soon as you saw me, you smiled the most beautiful and wide smile I've ever seen, taking away all my breath.

Whenever I go to sleep I think about you and, maybe, an us, wondering if you feel the same. And whenever I wake up, I can only imagine what it would be like to have you on the other side of the bed, forever in my arms.

What would it be like to have you? This probably sounds cliché and ridiculous, but I created a whole imagination of what it would be like, and I know it would be a dream come true.

And I tried so hard to resist it, out of pure fear and cowardice of losing you and your company, but resisting you became my most difficult task.

Everything about you makes me feel more alive and lighter. The sound of your voice seems to silence all the noise in my head, and your smile erases all the bad smoke in the world around me. And suddenly there's only you.

If you gave me the chance, I would make you feel everything and much more than you already made me feel.

Say the word and I'll be your yours.

Always,

Chris.

Y/N remained static for long minutes, letting the magnitude of what she had just read sink into her heart and mind. She felt her fingertips numb and her heart racing so much that she was almost sure it would jump out of her chest and run to wherever Chris was.

And then, with renewed determination, the girl got up from her bed, running downstairs towards Chris's room, goosebumps rising through her body in anticipation.

Upon arriving at the door of the room she dreamed of being able to live in one day, Y/N raised her closed fist, knocking it against the wood with nervousness, anxiously waiting for an answer.

When Chris opened it, their eyes met in a moment of pure connection, and Y/N knew it was the right thing to do.

"Chris." She began, her voice soft but shaky. "I love you too."
