Summary: you and yasper have been mutually pining after one another since high school, how will the reunion affect that?
Masterlist
-2006-
You and Zoë walked up to the school, you tug at the strap of your backpack as it slides down your arm. 
“Zoë!!!” The Jennifers call from a table by the entrance of the school.
You scoff. “I still can't believe you hang out with them.”
“Y/N, c’mon, they're…”
“Popular?”
“No,” Zoë denies.
“Bitches?”
“Y/N!” Zoë hushes as you near the two girls dressed in clothes that probably cost more than your car.
“Whatever,” you say.
“There you are!” Jennifer 1 stands to grab Zoës hand and pull her towards them. 
“See you later,” you grumble, walking away.
Zoë watches you as you walk away, wishing she could combine her two worlds in some way.
You spot Aniq and Yasper up ahead, and pick up your pace to catch them, “Hey guys,” you say as you fall into step with them. 
“Hey Y/N-” Yasper is cut off by the sound of loud rap music.
You spot Eugene's red sports car, and Eugene spots you, “I’ll uh see you later,” you quickly say, turning on your heel and rushing off to your locker.
“Every time!” Yasper curses, glaring at Eugene after he watches you enter the school.
“Dude,” Aniq complains, “why does his license plate say Xavier?”
“It's his middle name and he thinks it's cooler than Eugene,” Yasper explains quickly before Eugene could get to them.
“Was that Y/N?” Eugene stumbles as he reaches the two. 
“Yeah,” Yasper states bitterly, turning toward the school.
“Cool, uh, d-did you guys see the car?”
“Yeahhh!” the two pretend to be excited.
In chemistry, you sit near the front of the class, Zoë usually sits next to you, but the closer it gets to the end of the school year, the more she slacks off. You don't have that luxury, you're not rich or talented, so the only thing that got you into college was your grades. 
You were filling in the handout that the teacher had given, when Zoë slid back into the seat beside you. “So,” she started casually, you turn your head ever so slightly to look at her out the side of your eye, “You heard about Brett's party right?” You sigh. Of course you had, but you were hoping for once Zoë wouldn't drag you there.
“Yes,” you state dryly, returning to your paper, which Zoë is quick to rip from your hands. “Hey,” you scold. 
Zoë goes to give it back, leaning in before pulling the paper just out of your reach, “I heard Aniqs going,” there's a twinkle in her eyes. 
“Okay and?” you deflate a little. 
“If Aniqs going then you know who else is going… right?” 
You knew what she meant instantly but pretended not to care, “So?”
“So, that means you're coming too.” You go to grab the paper from her but she pulls it away once more, “Uh uh.”
You risk a glance to the back of the room where you see Aniq and Yasper talking excitedly, pushing back a smile, “Fine.”
The party was crowded, as you had expected, everyone loved Bretts parties. 
“Welcome to my party!” a very nervous guy greeted you as you stepped through the threshold. You recognize him as Walter, a guy from your chemistry class. You smile at him. “There's u-uh drinks in the kitchen!”
“Thanks Walter,” you say over the music as Zoë drags you further into the party.
You look around the party, some faces we're familiar, others completely foreign. Zoë pinches your arm, you look back to see Yasper standing outside, drinking by himself. “I-I need a drink,” you rush off, leaving Zoë standing there by herself. 
You find the kitchen fairly easily and pour yourself a drink. You house it, then pour yourself another one, then another one, “Woah, slow down there,” you nearly jump out of your skin. 
“Yasper,” you smile at him. 
“How’ve you been?” He leans casually against the wall. 
“Good,” you nod. 
“Good. You don't usually come to these things, huh? What brings you here tonight?” you flush a little at the way he grins down at you.
“Zoë dragged me here,” you roll your eyes, trying your best to seem annoyed. 
“It's not all bad though, is it?”
“No-”
Before you could really form an answer, a group of boys burst into the house announcing, “New keg’s here!”
“C'mon,” you grab Yasper's hand, dragging him to the backyard, “We can watch people embarrass themselves doing a keg stand.” 
When you entered the backyard, the keg was already tapped and someone was already upside down. 
“...2…3…4!” people chanted, you and Yasper joining in. Though Yasper disappeared briefly after and when you spotted him you saw that he was talking to a newly blonde Eugene. So you decided to dip inside. 
Inside you headed back to the kitchen and found Chelsea. 
“Hey,” she smiled at you, her hands rubbing her arms nervously.
“Hey,” you grab some unlabeled  juice mixture and pour it into a cup, “It was really cool of you to break up with Ned, way to stick up for yourself,” you offer, eyeing her anxious form.
Chelsea visibly relaxes, “You think?”
“I know, and don’t listen to the Jennifers, they’re…”
“Bitches?”
“Exactly!” the two of you share a good laugh.
“Thank Y/N…”
“Yeah, no problem,” you spot a mop of curly brown hair pass through the living room, “I’ll-uh, see you later.” You shoot her a smile before pushing your way through the crowd to the living room. 
Yasper spins in a circle, looking lost, but a wide smile takes over his expression when he spots you. “There you are!” he rubs the back of his neck, “Sorry, I had to deal with something…”
“All good,” you smile up at him. “Do you uh, want a drink?” you point behind you to the kitchen, Yasper's eyes flick there and shakes his head ‘no’. You turn slightly to see that Eugene has taken your spot with Chelsea. 
“How about we go find somewhere to sit outside?” he offers instead.
“Okay,” you let him lead you out to the back porch, where you find a bench to sit on.  “So how’s the band?” you ask, turning to face him.
“Oh… yeah… that’s the… thing I had to deal with,” he starts, scratching the back of his neck.
“Oh.”
“Yeah, me and Eugene split up.”
“Well, are you gonna go solo?”
“Obviously!”
“Good,” you smile up at him. His eyes flick to your lips, then yours to his. You lean forward slowly, and his body mirrors yours. Then you feel water splash up your leg as someone’s drink is spilled at your feet. 
“Sorry, sorry- sorry,” you hear Aniq as you close your eyes in frustration. When you open them, Yasper is standing having a quiet argument with Aniq. You stand to join them, “Y/N! H-hi! H-how are you? I’m so sorry about the the drink!” Aniq greets. 
You eye him wearily, “It’s cool,” You turn to face Yasper, “I think I’m gonna-”
“Aniq,” you hear from behind you.
“Stay away from me Eugene,” Aniq states seriously.
“It’s Xavier, and hey, I’m not sure if you noticed but Bretts eating your girl's face in there. Yeah, I guess if you hadn’t slipped and fallen in the pool, that would be you right now,” he winked at you, “Y/N,” before patting Aniq’s shoulder and leaving. 
“Eugene,” Yasper scolds, “Don’t listen to him man. You okay?” he asks Aniq. Aniq stares at the window, where you can clearly see Zoë and Brett making out on the couch. He turns and looks around, spotting a baseball bat, and walking over to grab it, “Aniq,” Yasper states more firmly. But he had already grabbed the bat and was now walking through the house to the front door. You grab Yasper’s hand, pulling him along to follow Aniq. When you reach the front, Aniq is at Eugene’s car, “Aniq, what are you doing? Buddy?” Yasper steps forward. Aniq raises the bat, “Aniq! Buddy! Don’t!” Smack, Aniq hits the hood of the car, then again, then he goes for the windshield, you reach out for Yasper once again as everyone winces. 
Aniq continues battering the car until Eugene steps into the front yard, finally seeing what everyone is looking at, “WHAT THE FUUUCK!” He hops on Aniq’s back, ripping the bat from his hands. 
“Fight! Fight! Fight!” people chant, and you would've joined in if you weren't so worried that Yasper was going to jump in there and try to stop them. The two bots circle each other throwing punches and kicks that widely miss their mark. 
“Just fight already!” someone complains from the audience, “Hit him!” someone else throws out.
Aniq begins to spin in a circle, arms spread wide, “Hey that's my move!” Eugene protests, doing the same motion and Aniq. 
“What are you doing? Stop Sound-of-Music-ing!” Yasper complains. 
Aniq grabs Eugene's leg as he goes for a kick, and they topple over, Eugene tackling Aniq.
“Guys stop! We’re friends! Everybody's friends!” Yasper goes to step forward but you pull him back as you catch sight of flashing of red and blue lights down the street. The cops sound their siren, and everyone scatters, you try to pull Yasper with you, but he stays firmly planted by the side of the house, watching as Aniq gets arrested.
-2020-
You walked down the stairs, your face glued to your phone as you crafted an email as you turned down one of the halls. 
“Oh, Y/N, the AV guy is here,” the housekeeper stopped you. 
“Oh awesome, where is he?” the housekeeper points to the home recording studio. “Thank you Juliet.” You turn on your heel to head down that hall instead. 
“Hi t-” you stop short at the sight, “Yasper?” your pleasant smile turns into a wide grin as he turns to face you. 
“Y/N?” he rushes to wipe off his hands, putting down his screwdriver. 
You pull him into a tight hug before he can say much else. Pulling away slightly, you look into his eyes, “How have you been?” 
You relish in the feeling of his thumbs tracing your hip bones while he answers, “Good, you? Wait, what are you doing here?” he pulls away slightly more. 
You then realize he might have a girlfriend or be married, you step back, watching his hands fall at his sides, not married, you note. “Oh,” you point up towards Xaviers room where you had just left him, “Here? Yeah Xavier asked me to come work for him a couple years ago, I declined but then he offered me waay too much money to turn down.” Yasper nods solemnly, “But weee,” you grab his hands, “should totally meet up sometime to catch up!” 
He smiles down at your hands then up at you, “Yeah, we should.”
You pull away one of your hands slightly, making a grabbing motion. Yasper tilts his head in confusion, “Phone?” you ask.
“Oh!” he digs in his pocket, retrieving his phone and opening up his contacts. You enter your information, handing it back to him. “Cool.”
“Cool,” you agree, stepping back towards the door, “I’ll uh see you later then.”
“Yeah, see you then,” he grins at you.
-Xavier-
Y/N walked down the hall, a wide smile on her face. “Heheh” she giggled down at her phone, typing away.
“Whatcha doin?” Xavier asks, sidling up next to her. 
“Nothing, you’re still going to that GQ thing Saturday night, right?”
“Yeah, why? You wanna come?” he leans on the wall in front of her.
“Oh, god no, The Weeknd’s manager just texted me, guess he wants to talk to you,” Y/N shrugs, walking around him. 
The next day Xavier and you sat in the newly revamped recording studio. “Hey Y/N, check out this beat,” Xavier clicks one of the many buttons on the soundboard, nodding his head along to the music.
Y/N looks up from her spot on the couch, nodding along as well, “Not bad.”
“Xavier we need to focus,” his producer pipes up from beside him. 
“Yeah,” he waves a dismissive hand, “Whatever.”
Out of the corner of his eye, he watches as Y/N answers her phone, “Hello? Oh Yasper! Hi,” she rushed out of the room. Xavier was green with envy. He had tried so hard these past 5 years to get you to like him, and Yasper makes one lousy phone call? 
“Hey, just so you know I won't be around tomorrow night,” Y/N says as she steps back into the room, her thumbs nimbly typing away on her phone. 
Xavier panicked, he had to think quick, “Whaaat? Tomorrow? I just planned a meeting with the Weeknd in Toronto,” he pouts.
“What?” her head snaps up from her phone. 
“Well, yeah, when you mentioned they wanted to talk, I gave Abel a call and we set up a dinner, so I kind of need you there.” He shrugs at her. 
“Shit, fine, okay, I-I’ll be there,” Y/N leaves the room. 
“Yes!” Xavier pumps his fist, but his celebration is short lived as he realizes he, in fact, does not have a dinner planned in Toronto with The Weeknd. “I gotta go, we’ll continue this later,” he rushes out of the studio, past you and up to his room. 
On Sunday morning, Xavier takes Y/N out for brunch, under the guise of “celebrating the collab with The Weeknd”. The two order drinks, then Y/N excuses herself to the bathroom. Xavier busied himself with the menu, analyzing each option despite knowing what he was going to get. The table begins to vibrate, and Xavier looks up to see Y/N’s phone ringing, thinking it could be about him, he picks up the phone. Yasper, the screen reads in big white letters, Xavier sees red for a moment, swiping the accept button, “Hello?” Yasper asks on the other line. Silence, “Y/N? You there?” Xavier hangs up abruptly as an idea comes to his mind. He unlocks your phone, opening up your call history, clicking on Yasper’s name, he finds what he's looking for in bright red letters, Block this caller. He clicks it, then spots your form weaving through the tables across the restaurant, he swipes left to delete Yaspers call, then places your phone back quickly.
-2021-
Xavier insisted that you fly into the reunion with him, “It will show them how cool you are!”
“I’m not cool,” you protest.
“Yes you are, always have been, always will be,” he grins at you. 
“Fine,” you give in and let him pull you to the helicopter sat outside his mansion. 
When you reached the reunion, there was a crowd gathered around the helicopter, and Xavier was quick to grab you hand and drag you out with him. He grasped onto you tightly but you wiggled free when you spotted a familiar group of people. “I see Zoë! See you later!” you say loud enough for him to hear over the chatting. 
You walked toward the group quickly, pushing your way through the crowd of people. Zoë spotted you instantly, expecting that you would arrive with Xavier. 
“Y/N!” she rushes forward, crushing you in a hug.
“Hey Zoë,” you pull away, “Aniq!” you pull the guy into a hug as well, he makes a few surprised noises. Your eyes meet Yasper’s for a fleeting moment, “Yasper,” you start. He looks down at you, you reach out for his arm, “Can we- ?” you pull him away from the two lovebirds. “Listen, I’m sorry I had to cancel on you, and I really didn't want to, believe me, and I’m sorry if I put out the wrong vibe, but I did really want to see you again,” you pour your heart out. 
“Then why didn't you answer my calls?”
“What calls?”
“And all my texts never delivered,” he pulls out his phone to show you. 
“That son of a bitch.”
“I beg your pardon?” Yasper asks.
“Nothing, I-I didn't know you were calling or texting me, look,” you pull up your list of blocked numbers on your phone, “Somehow you got blocked…” your eyes wander to where Xavier basqued the glory of his high school comrades.
Yasper followed you gaze, pushing down his anger, he rubs your back soothingly, “Well, we're here now, do you wanna grab a drink?”
“I would love to,” you smile up at him. 
Except the two of you took your time getting in the school, stopping and laughing at the yearbook photos and making jokes about your high school times. By the time you made it inside, mostly everyone else was already in the gym. 
Before you could even cross the gym to the bar, you heard your name being yelled. You close your eyes tightly and wish it wasn’t happening.
“Y/N! Y/N!” Xavier tries again. 
Opening your eyes you look up to see Yasper turning to look around, “Wait! Don't!” you stop him, “Maybe we can pretend we don't hear him.”
Yasper smiles down at you again. “Y/N!” you make the mistake of looking forward again, right into the den of the lion. “I saved you a seat!” Xavier calls, pointing to the seat next to him. 
You give Yasper an apologetic look, “I’ll find you later, okay?” 
“Yeah, okay,” he says quietly. 
“Xavier!” Yasper walks up nervously, he shoots you a quick grin before turning back to the blonde, “Oh my god I didn't know you were gonna be here!”
Xavier looks around, “Yeah, I’m just tryna lay low tonight, just kinda blend in, you know?”
“Yeah but you came in on a helicopter right?” Yasper sasses. 
“Yeah, right,” Xavier concedes. You eye the two suspiciously. 
“You know what, we gotta catch up, what do you say we meet by the bar? I’ll buy you a drink.”
“Yeah,” Xavier looks at you, “I could use another drink, you want one?”
“No thank you,” you smile. 
“Okay, BRB,” you wave as he stands to join Yasper at the bar. 
As they talk, you seize your opportunity to slip away from Xavier, and leave the gym. You walk outside to catch your breath and spot Chelsea marking up someone's car. “Woah Chelsea! Woah woah woah!” you run up to stop her. You see in her hands is lipstick, “Dude you ruined your lipstick,” you frown at her.
“Shit,” she looks down at it mesmerized. 
“We should get you home,” you lead her away from the car a little. 
“Woah! What’s going on here?” Yasper walks up to the two of you. 
“I think Chelsea marked up this car thinking it was Xaviers,” you offer.
“Whaat? This is my car!” Yasper exclaims, “But it's cool, it's cool, it's just- is that lipstick?”
“Okay well can you drive Chelsea home?”
“Noo, I have to go to the afterparty,” Chelsea slurs. 
You raise your eyebrow, looking to Yasper, you have a silent conversation, “Okay yeah, get in,” Yasper gestures to the car. You help Chelsea in the backseat and then climb in the front with Yasper, “What are you doing?”
You look around, confused, “Uh, going to the afterparty?”
“Oh, I thought you would wait for Xavier,” he says nervously. 
“No way, screw him,” you buckle your seat belt, turning to make sure Chelsea was buckled in too. 
At the afterparty you and Chelsea focus on sobering up a very intoxicated Aniq, who you had picked up in the parking lot after Yasper had hit him with his car. Yasper had wandered off somewhere, too enraptured with his phone. Out of the corner of your eye, you spot Xavier, he nods towards the hallway, gesturing for you to follow him. You do, despite knowing this might not end well. 
“Hey,” Xavier starts when you step into the hallway. 
“Hey,” you say, crossing your arms across your chest. 
“Listen, I just wanted to tell you that Yasper is bad news.”
“What?” you question.
“Yeah he’s like, a total loser, and has some boring tech job.”
“Okay, and?”
“And? And if I see you with him again tonight, I’m- you’re- you're fired!” he stammers. 
“You can't do that,” you state firmly. 
“Oh yeah? Watch me,” he storms off back to the party. Yasper moves from his spot near the hallway, where he was invisible to you, yet heard the whole conversation. You sigh, returning to the party, beelining it to the bar, and shooting back more alcohol than you should've. 
“There you are,” you lean on the door frame by the stairs. 
Yasper looks at you as he watches Aniq climb the stairs, ”Hey.”
“Hey,” you step forward, as seductively as possible, even though your vision was a little blurry.
“Hey, I heard you and Xavier talking earlier-”
“SHhhh,” you drunkenly quiet him, placing a finger on his lips, before leaning down and replacing it with your own. 
“Y/N-” Yasper protests. 
“Shh,” you whisper, tugging on his jacket to pull him into the hallway, away from everyone else. You capture his mouth with yours again. Yasper gives in, snaking his hands around your waist and kissing you harder. 
A scream from somewhere else in the house breaks you out of your embrace. You look worriedly in his big brown eyes. Getting up, you grab his hand, pulling him into the main room, where you spot everyone gathered on the balcony. You rush over, Yasper hot on your heels. When you glance over the side you spot a body, lying lifeless on the rocks below. The fabric of a purple suit catches your eye and you gasp, turning away, right into Yasper’s chest. He engulfs you in his arms, leading you away from the balcony. 
-Danner-
“So what you're telling me, is you had a prime motive to kill Xavier?” Danner asks you when you finish telling your side of the story. You look at her, confused. “He was gonna fire yo ass!” she exclaimed.
“Ohhh,” you shake your head, “He was bluffing, I’ve known Xavier for a long time, he wouldn’t actually do that.”
Danner raises an eyebrow at you “Mhm,” she says as she writes something on her notepad.
“Plus, won’t I get more money from him firing me than from me killing him? I mean- fraternizing with your boss's ex-best friend isn’t really a fireable action.”
Danner considers this, “But if he liked you so much, and he has such a bad relationship with his dad, you might just be in the will.”
You shrug, “I’d have no idea.”
“Mhm,” she continued writing notes, “You may go.”
“Um, thanks,” you get up and exit the room. 
You don’t even notice Danner following you into the main room where everyone is gathered. 
“Listen up, everyone!” she calls from behind you, making you jump from surprise. “Good news, everyone. No more waiting. I know who the killer is.” 
Yasper looks at you worriedly, and you take a seat next to Chelsea, looking down at your hands.
“So, you all have been talking all night long. Now, it’s my turn to talk,” Danner starts. She moves on Chelsea first, you grab her hand comfortingly. 
“But I didn’t do it,” Chelsea pleads after Danner’s accusation of her.
“I know sweetie,” Danner pats her on the back softly. This shocks you, what kind of game is Danner playing at? 
She continues, accusing Walt, then Brett. Aniq butts in, saving Brett from being arrested, claiming he saw him in the driveway. Danner agrees, saying it wasn’t Brett, nor was it Aniq, since he just stepped forward. 
“Okay, then who was it?” Zoë asks impatiently. 
“The person who was most upset with how their life turned out, the one who told the most cartoonish and fake story,” Danner looks at Zoë expectantly. Before turning.
“Oh.. oh no,” Aniq mumbles, as he moves with her to look at none other than Yasper. 
“Me? What?” he laughs. 
“Yeah, you’re the only one who could have been hiding in the closet. And you distracted everyone with your video so they wouldn’t hear Xavier scream when you killed him.” She steps forward. It was Chelsea’s turn to take your hand and squeeze it tight.
“This is gonna be fun, so it’s my turn now?” he jokes, which makes you tense. “Okay, explain how it’s me? Everyone was a witness, when that video came on? I was down here with Aniq.”
Danner agrees, “You right, everyone was a witness,” then explains the major hole in his story, “all of them said you came in from the balcony, except for you.”
You freeze, as Danner continues, picking apart his story, how it started when he came in to install the AV stuff. How saw you working for him. How he came across one of Xavier’s songs that used his line. The fight with Xavier at the bar. “There was only one way for you to get what you felt like you deserve, and that was to kill him.”
“Kill him?” Yasper asks.
“Yeah, kill him, steal the song, steal his girl,” she points to you, which makes Yasper uncross his arms, “then you say he gave you the song, then release it as a duet, with you and Xavier as your Tupac.” 
“I mean, this is an incredible, fanciful imaginary story. I’m actually impressed, but it’s totally false. It’s all made up.” 
Danner continues to tear apart his story, his fake recording studio alibi from earlier in the night, how Maggie had turned the sound up stupidly loud, the selfie, Brett walking in. 
“You’re making up everything! Aniq! Y/N! Now’s the time where you stand up for me!” Danner continues, her story persistent, yet fully thought through. “You really think that I did this? I was Xavier’s friend, he was coming up. We were gonna record a song together, I have text messages, remember?” he almost pleads, causing you and Chelsea to look at each other. “He texted me, look at this. Show everybody.”
“You know what? Y/N actually helped me crack this one.” you raise your eyebrows, looking on with wide eyes. “Y/N told me that her and Xavier don’t use passwords on their phones, that’s how Xavier blocked your number from her phone.” Some quiet ooh’s sound through the room.  
Danner proceeds with her accusation, talking about how Yasper had texted himself from Xavier’s phone, then jumped down from the balcony. But Aniq had wanted to confront Xavier, so he tried to stop him. 
“All this time I thought you were helping me,” Aniq crosses his arms.
“I have been helping you. She’s turning you against me right now.” Yasper begins scrambling talking about how Danner has been accusing everyone, but with no evidence.
“But there is evidence.” Aniq mutters. “You realized there were security cameras that probably saw exactly what you did, and you had to erase it.” Aniq steps forward, “You still had Xavier’s phone,” Aniq continues, talking about him deleting the footage, copying Xavier’s song ideas from his phone to his own. 
“I swear to you, I don’t have Xavier’s phone,” Yasper says, you release your hand from Chelsea’s, pulling out your phone, as Culp steps forward to search him. Culp pulls out two phones. 
“I have two phones, is that crime?”  Imma Live Forever plays from the one in Culps right hand, your name appearing on the screen. Yasper abruptly stops his arguing, “Y/N?”
You look up from your phone, holding and showing everyone that you had dialed Xavier’s contact, solemnly. Danner cheers, which evokes the others to cheer too, everyone but you, Aniq, and Zoë. 
“You guys don’t understand…” Yasper starts. “You all have your own stories, right? B-but Xavier, he owed me everything, I gave him his career, I gave him his name. I gave him his name, you remember that?” he asks Aniq, who frowns at his friend, “And he still wanted to screw me over, w-with the music, with Y/N! I should have been the star, I should have been the successful one. I was the one that was supposed to be famous!” Yasper speaks, slowly walking across the room, he begins to ramble, “And there’s one thing that you guys didn’t think about,” he looks at you briefly, before turning quickly and running for the door. Culp catches him easily as he tries to open the very heavy glass door. 
You sigh, and Zoë approaches, opening her arms for you to embrace her in a much needed hug. “I’m sorry,” she says, softly directing your gaze away from the sight of Yasper being arrested. You give her a tight-lipped smile. 
Bonus (spoilers for season 2): 
A year later, you found yourself wrapped up in another murder investigation, having been invited to Zoë’s little sister’s wedding. Thankfully, the groom had been killed on accident, unthankfully, the culprit was Zoë’s uncle.
You, Danner, Aniq, and Zoë all sat at a table on the front porch. “So, Y/N, how’s Yasper?” Danner asks, causing you to freeze. 
“What is she talking about?” Zoë questions, leaning forward from beside you to look in your eyes. You turn your head, only to be met with Aniq’s gaze. 
“She didn’t tell you?” Danner asks, your eyes flick up at hers in an attempt to quiet her.
“She told me she was getting letters from him… But you told the prison to stop sending them… Right?” Zoë asks sternly.
Danner laughs, “Uh uh, no she did not.” You glare at her.
“What?”
“I tried to-,” you start, turning to your friend, grabbing her hands in yours, “But the request didn’t go through I guess, and I never tried again…” You look down at your hands.
“But you throw them out, right? That’s what I did, and he stopped sending them, eventually,” Aniq pipes up.
You continue to stare at your hands guiltily. 
“You kept every single one, haven’t you?” Danner asks, clicking her tongue.
You look up at Zoë, who gapes at you, “Y/N, he killed someone.”
“Yeah, Xavier,” you mutter. 
The three stare in shock as you get up and leave.

Imagine: Yasper Lennov Teaching You How To Play The Bass
MASTERLIST | AO3 | KO-FI
Relationship(s): Yasper Lennov x gn!reader (implied romantic)
Warnings: Sexual innuendos and possibly inaccurate depictions of playing the bass. (Let me know if I need to add any)
(A/N: So, after writing my first AO3 fic based on the Afterparty (it's a Hannah-centric study of Hannah and Grace's relationship, in the form of a triple drabble- I'd really appreciate if you would check it out), I decided to write a reader-insert fic for my darling boy Yasper who did nothing wrong. This show is my latest obsesion, and I've been posting excessively about it on my personal/fandom blog (@mx-piggy ) Apologies for that. Anyway, as a bassist in the making, I was thrilled when it was revealed that Yasper is also a bassist. I discreetly consulted my brother/bass teacher about this one by asking him who the greatest bassist of all time was. Luckily, he's used to me asking him inane questions on the regular, so he didn't know it was for a piece of fanfiction. Writing this made me wish that I was being taught the bass by an attractive man and not my brother, who is the Gordon Ramsey equivalent of a bass teacher.)
Tumblr media
“Ugh, I’m so bad at this,” you whined, rolling your head back in frustration. “It’s like my fingers are working against me or something.”
You weren’t far from throwing the bass to the ground and stomping on it repeatedly. The only thing stopping you from that was the fact that it belonged to Yasper.
“Hey, hey, hey,” Yasper said insistently. “You just need to practise, and soon you’ll be the second best bassist to have ever lived. And, you’re the luckiest novice in the world because you have the best bassist as your teacher.”
“But, Jaco Pastorius isn’t my teacher. He died in, like, 1980-something.”
“Jaco Past-“ Yasper cut himself off. He gestured to himself with an expression of mock disbelief, causing you to grin. “No, me! I’m the best. And, I’m very graciously teaching you this wonderful life skill for free. Once you master an instrument as… instrumental as the bass, you have a ticket into, like, any band you want.”
“Okay, Yas,” you responded. “Please, make me band-worthy.”
“Well, since you asked so nicely.”
You chuckled, and it seemed he couldn’t keep a straight face anymore.
“Come on, do you want to be the next Yasper Lennov or not?”
“In every respect, or just in terms of bass-playing skill?”
“Quit insulting me to divert the attention from the fact that you’re finding this hard. Besides, undeniable charisma isn’t something that can be taught.”
“Fine, then, teach me something.”
“‘Fine, then, teach me something’ what?”
Yasper looked at you expectantly.
“Do you want me to say ‘please’ or ‘sensei’?”
“I would’ve accepted either,” he answered with a shrug.
“‘Fine, then,’” you began monotonously. “‘Teach me something, please’, because I’m not calling you ‘sensei’.”
He seemed to ignore your last comment.
“You just need to start off slow before you learn the riff to speed, y’know? Otherwise your fingering’s gonna be sloppy.”
“You were dying to say that, weren’t you?”
“Not at all.”
Though, his childish grin undermined his claim.
“So, what I’ll do is clap slow,” he continued. “And then you play in time with the claps. Got it?”
“Okay.”
Looking down, you carefully placed your fingers on the strings, then you glanced back up at Yasper.
“Ready?” he asked.
When you nodded, he began to clap slowly and counted each beat aloud (“one, two, three, four, one, two, three, four”). On the third round of beats, you started to play, and it didn’t sound nearly as shit as before. You would even go as far to say that it sounded… good?
Yasper seemed to agree with you, because he beamed and let out a laugh.
“There you go!”
Once you’d played the riff around ten times, you stopped. The moment your eyes met Yasper’s, you broke out into a grin.
“You did it!” he exclaimed with sincere glee.
“I did it!” you repeated with the same amount of enthusiasm. “Thank you, Yasper!”
Yasper’s grin didn’t falter, but there seemed to be a kind of change in his expression. It was relatively subtle, so much so that you second-guessed yourself that there had been any change at all. His eyes lit up in a way they hadn’t just a moment before. Something undeniable was when he proceeded to shift in his seat and chuckle in a way that sounded uncharacteristically bashful. You expected him to sweep his slightly odd behaviour under the rug with one of his typical comments, but he didn’t. You maintained eye contact with him in a rare moment of comfortable silence, even if your face did feel a little hot.
And, although you liked Yasper’s talkativeness, this sure was nice.

𝑫𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒀𝒂𝒔𝒑𝒆𝒓 𝑳𝒆𝒏𝒏𝒐𝒗 𝒘𝒐𝒖𝒍𝒅 𝒃𝒆 𝒍𝒊𝒌𝒆:
Tumblr media
First date:
Probably when he was going to ask you on a first date, he would send audio all excited, it seems like something he would do.
When you accepted the proposal, he would send you some nice/cute GIF because he would be sooo happy he couldn't say something.
The date would be at some quiet restaurant, although that doesn't seem like his mood.
That's how you guys started dating, basically at the beginning of dinner.
Yas is very good at keeping secrets (funny lol huh?), but when it comes to his feelings, it's always very intense so he can't hide them that easily...
Tumblr media
He just started humming one of the songs he said he was writing last week, started looking deep into your eyes and when you noticed, at the end of the song he asked you: "Do you wanna date me"
You were surprised by this, you even thought it was a joke.
When you realized was all real... you held back tears, something very difficult. But since you had fallen in love with him from the first moment, the answer automatically was “yes, sure."
Starting dating:
In the first week of dating, you would probably be a little shy to walk holding his hand, and of course, you still haven't talked to your family and friends about your relationship. Yasper is ok with it, he's also a little shy about it, something atypical. It's kind of a secret date, but he's definitely going to spill it to someone, of course he's going to tell Aniq and Zoe.
He would invite you to watch movies, series, or listen to music at his house. He would buy your favorite snacks and drinks for the movie/music day.
You will receive cuddles, kisses or even gifts from your dear boy.
He likes to place kisses on your forehead, mouth and chin. He likes to receive any kind of love, but he is so in love with caressing his silky fluffy hair, deep eye contact and of course, lots of kisses.
Tumblr media
On some days, maybe he'd like you to just listen to his new music and rate it.
Yasper seems like a crazy kind of guy, but he knows how to express his feelings well with silly jokes and he knows how to express himself even better by writing lyrics inspired by you and his feelings.
You love the songs inspired by you that he writes! It's the gift he loves to give you and what you love to receive.
You like to read every verse. He can express in his songs something that he normally can't and he always surprises you in the sweetest and most affectionate way. He is a true romantic!
Living together:
You decided to live together. He's definitely set aside a big space in his closet for you to store your stuff.
He'd change your bed to a double bed, he'd love to cuddle you until you both fall asleep.
Tumblr media
Finally he would buy a car, he wouldn't be renting one, it would be better to have own car for the couple.
He would definitely beef up the house security system and AV system, he wants to make everything safer and better for you.
Routine:
Well, basically, you would have multiple alarm clocks on your cell phone.
They're both sleepers and who wants to get up when they're sleeping with the love of their life? It feels like a dream, so we don't want to end it.
After several alarm clocks, he wakes up first, he always does. Singing, obviously.
He hugs you from behind very tight and speaks softly close to your ear and then kisses your cheek... "good morning"...
You complain softly, still half asleep, not wanting to wake up, he smiles and places a few more soft kisses down your cheek until you wake up.
“Good morning”, you reply back and hug him.
After a long moment of trying to wake up and get out of bed, it's time to do your morning hygiene (brushing your teeth and taking a shower).
You go to the bathroom together, grab your toothbrushes and start brushing.
You look in your reflection in the mirror and see Yasper making a few funny faces, which almost makes you laugh and spit it out.
After brushing, a cute kiss and a little talk about who's going to shower first. It's always him, you're always sleepy, so you prefer to stay in bed.
After a few long minutes, Yas came out of the bathroom shirtless. You've been dating and living together for a while but you still haven't gotten used to seeing him like this, and you often blush at this situation.
He always loves to make jokes about the color in your cheeks and you go to the bathroom “angry” to take your shower. (To escape his jokes).
Tumblr media
You come out of the bathroom and find the table all set and your breakfast ready, he made everything just the way you like it.
You run to kiss him and have breakfast together. Yas sometimes makes jokes with food and sings songs, Just tô make you smile.
Again you brush your teeth and you have an hour until he leaves for his AV work. This time should be put to good use, is very difficult to let he go :(
You always bring his lunch at work and stay there for a while, but you can't kiss him like you'd like since it's a work environment. But sometimes you manage to steal a kiss and even help organize customer contact lists.
He comes home tired, you like to prepare the bath for him, you'd even like to join him in the bath, but you also think it might be too early for that.
When he comes back to the room, he will comb his hair. His hair fascinates you so much. Is so shiny, fluffy and beautiful.
When he lays down with you after a rough day at work and after a shower, you love having your face in his neck. He smells so good.
After a long moment of rest, you need to choose what to eat.
Some days you go out to dinner, but most days you order pizza, you help him record songs or write them.
Tumblr media
* photo of Ben to illustrate hahaha *
He always tries to convince you to record with him, but you're ashamed, but of course he'd love to record a sweet song with your boyfriend.
When it's later, you watch the series until you fall asleep together, you like to sleep with your head on his chest.
- Thank you for reading :)
Watch "The Afterparty" and listen to Yasper's songs.
