Conrad Fisher x y/n reader

Summary: Conrad had been distant all summer long. Now he stood you up again, leaving you hurt and alone.

Jeremiah had watched it all going down for months now. Conrad not talking to her.

Conrad then calling and stopping again.

Conrad forgetting everything he was supposed to do as Y/N’s boyfriend.

At the day of her prom, he had forgotten the flowers. As much as she tried, Susannah and Jeremiah could see that Y/N had been disappointed. Again.

It had been a up and down, happy and sad.

For a long time Y/N had openly loved Conrad. Y/N was Susannah’s favourite person. “Her girl” as Susannah liked to call her.

Y/N was both, a friend and one of Susannah’s best friend’s daughters. It was always Susannah, Laurel and Y/N’s mom.

Thus, Y/N had spent every summer at cousins beach. And not only that, she had spent every free minute of it, loving Conrad. And everyone could see it. Everyone but him.

Of course, deep down, Conrad knew. But before, he had never acted on it.

Their relationship had started one year before Susannah got ill again. Until then, a sudden night in April, it all had been going perfectly. It was late in the evening and Conrad called her. Told her.

He seemed completely out of his mind, furious and, sad, helpless. From then on, Conrad was distant. He just didn’t tell her what was going on. Susannah told now one, what was going on.

He tried though, Y/N knew that but she didn’t know WHY he was behaving so strangely. And it pained her. All she wanted was to help him, understand him.

Before summer started, he stopped playing football, he quit talking to his dad, he started smoking. Everyone was shocked. And then, the weird behaviour seemed to also catch Y/N. Where he was able to act normally around her before, he now was distant, cold. He didn’t talk a lot anymore. He tried to let his feelings rest, tried to avoid thinking of it all. But every time he did just that, the pain just sat right behind his ribcage, tying a knot around his heart.

The evening it all got too much was Susannah’s last grand ball. She had planned it for months but wasn’t able to be part of it, only watching through laurel’s phone. It was also Y/N’s prom. Susannah had planned it to be at the same day.

She had told Conrad multiple times that it was special, the time he should arrive and he had been listening. Or more like pretended to do so.

When he noticed he was too late he went in his car and drove as fast as possible. It was a rush. He had noticed too late what time he should have been there. He knew Susannah would be angry about it.

And when he had parked his car and went running to the hall, pace steady, his heart beat. He ran through the doors and came to a halt right in the room.

Then, with heavy breathing, he started searching for her. His Y/N. To tell her he was sorry for being late again. But when he finally found her, standing alone next to all the couples dancing, he was grabbed by the elbow, turned to a halt. In front of him stold Jeremiah, with a stern expression on his face.

“What are you doing”

“Findig my girlfriend.” Conrad spat shortly. He was over Jeremiah’s behaviour.

“You know you left her standing there right?” Jeremiah said angrily.

“I know, I’m just late I forgot and..”

“What conrad? What could have been more important than her. She had been standing there, all alone, waiting for you, while the others have the time of their lifes. You are so messep up. You can’t even do this one thing correctly. I have been watching you the whole summer now. You are pathetic. You know I love her. The real her. You only love her because mom loves her more than anything. You think you have to love her as well. And you know what. Y/N is not some part of mom just because she loves her. Y/N is her own person.” Jeremiah had spoken so clearly, so loudly, it finally reached Conrad. Finally.

Conrad was stunned.

“I.. it’s not. Like. That. I do love her!” He said with anger. It was unfair, he loved you.

“But she doesn’t realise.” Jeremiah said quietly, pointing at the way you were standing there. Alone.

And then he went up to you. He had to change.

“Y/N” he said.

You turned around. You had been waiting. Again. Realisation hurt.

“Conrad.” You paused looking at him. “You are here.” You said in surprise.

“I am.” He looked at his shoes and then back at her. “I was late something came up and..”

“Something.” You repeated, smiling to yourself. It was a small smile, not really a smile, more of an unsure and sad smile than anything else.

“I was waiting. I thought you wouldn’t show up.”

“I, i did. I do.”

“Yeah. Maybe I should go home it’s been no fun for me anyway and I’m tired. It was a beautiful ball.” You said quietly.

“No, no don’t go yet we could still dance.”

“I don’t think we should anymore Conrad. I think i have been waiting my whole life for you to notice me. You never did. I have been dreaming of all this forever and now I feel like Susannah has forced you to pity on me. It’s okay though because I am done waiting. So yes, I want to go home.” With tears forming in your eyes, you looked at him.

But when you were leaving, Conrad grabbed your arm, just the same way Jeremiah had been grabbing his minutes prior.

“I understand Y/N and I don’t have something that makes this better but I can only tell you that you are not some part of my mom. You are your own person and I don’t love you just because she loves you. I love that my mom loves you but I love so much more about you as well.”

Conrad Fisher x Y/N reader

It was a dance night you had awaited. Susannah had set the date since the summer began.

„A beautiful summer ball before debuting." Was what she had called it. Jeremiah had asked you to dance with him a few nights ago when you all were at the dinner table.

You wanted Conrad to ask you. You had waited all summer for it to happen, but he never did.

It ended up in you having no companion. You didn't want to make a big deal out of it since it wasn't debutant ball. At least that was what you told yourself.

If you were honest it was because it wouldn't be Conrad. So you didn't tell anyone until Susannah had asked you at dinner and then Jere asked you to be his companion. You knew he did it out of pity which, if you were honest, didn't make it better. And Susannah's reaction was displaying exactly what everyone felt in that moment. It all had started like this;

„So Y/N do you have a partner for the dance?" Susannah asked, smirking. Her eyebrows were raised and you knew she did this on purpose. To make Conrad step in, but of course he didn't.

„No I don't,“ you answered.

There was a long pause and silence that followed.

Susannah was looking at Conrad expecting a reaction, but he didn't bother looking up from his plate. The food was suddenly more interesting than what was going on at the table. And he was frowning.

„Y/N do you want to go with me?" Jere said eventually. "It would be really fun," Breaking the silence in the dining room, he looked at you expectingly. Smiling like always, he didn't see what a terrible situation this was.

Susannah's face was, well, shocked. Her smile fell and she then looked at Conrad like she couldn't believe what was happening. She looked angry and you had never seen her angry before.

If you think about it, it might have been more like a frustrating frown but her cheeks were slightly red and then, as if nothing happened, she started smiling and looked in Jeremiah’s direction.

"Of course Jere, thank you for asking," You replied while smiling. Though this wasn't what you wished for and when you looked at Conrad he looked back at you without any reaction. He must have known that this wasn't right, you think to this day.

That's how you ended up at your mothers best friends ball with your best friend. It all went well.

If that's what you want to call it. You walked into the ballroom Susannah had rented together and starded dancing along with everyone else. With Jeremiah it was always more fun than beautiful but you weren't going to complain. Being here alone would have been a lot more hurtful. And again you told yourself, that it was wasn't that serious as the debutant ball would be next month.

Belly had hers last year and it was all she talked about for months and months on end. You couldn't wait for it too. The magic and the endless time spent with people you loved.

While dancing you were sure Jere was looking somewhere else every now and then.

"What are you looking at?" you asked, now also turning around to see what he was looking at so repeatedly.

"Oh nothing, nothing," he stated, giving you one of his signature smiles. It was strange and as much as you wanted him to participate into the conversation and tell you what was going on, you found yourself lost in your own thoughts. Why did Conrad act so weird this summer? Why was Susannah so adment on him asking you and why was everyone so kind. Except for Conrad?

As the night continued on, he kept keeping watch on something in the room. It did give you the impression that he didn't really want to dance with you. Which in the end only made your thesis on how he had asked you out of pity a bit more believe. You knew Jeremiah only meant well, but he was also someone who liked a party way more than a formal dance.

"How about I'll get us a drink?" he asked eventually, smiling and letting go of your linked hands.

At that you frowned.

"Uh yeah why not," you agreed. Jeremiah gave you no sign of really wanting to dance with you.

Maybe he really needed a drink. "It would be nice actually. Just water okay?" You answered.

"Always Y/N, be right back," he beamed while already taking steps back heading into the direction of the banquet.

Chapter 1 | Chapter 2

“Y/n, why are you alone?“ You did not need to turn around to know who it was. It was Conrad. It was always Conrad who somehow showed up in moments like this.

„Conrad!“ you gasped, suddenly verry verry speechless, while turning to face him. Your eyes must have looked like they were falling out. „Yeah it’s me.“ He chuckled. He was smiling!

“What are you doing here? I thought you would stay at home?” It was the only question you could come up with at that moment.

„Why would I?” he asked taken aback. His voice a bit quieter than it was before, eyebrows furrowed.

“Well I thought since you were so weird and distant this whole summer you didn’t want to spent time at Susannah’s ballroom dance.” You stated. At this, his features completely fell, suddenly he looked hurt, nearly as if you had hit him. And in this moment, you truly felt miserable.

„ At first I didnt want to..“ he shiftet closer to you, whispering. „But i wanted to see if everything is alright.“ It was more like a question and you didn’t know how to answer. His hands came up to holds yours but he then let them fall against his sides. You noticed it though.

„Oh yeah of course..” you paused. Your cheeks were turning red. “Jere left to get us drinks maybe 15 minutes ago and i can’t find him.“

Conrads eye’s popped open. He clearly was shocked at that. For a moment he didn’t do anything and then, suddenly, he reached his hand out to you. „Would you like to dance with me?” He requested. His face now stoic. It wasn’t really a question more like something he demanded, because you couldn’t say no. Not when it was what you wanted the whole time. And he knew. So you reached your hand to take his.

“Of course.” You assured breathlessly, now smiling. It came out like a whisper but he heard you nonetheless. And then you two were dancing. Conrad was dressed in a dark blue Suit. You had never seen him wear this one but it did suit him. He looked so dreamy. It also was nearly the same colour as Jeremiahs which made you asume that Susannah had picked them especially for tonight. And since she had given you the dress you were wearing, stating that it just was right for this night you couldn’t help but hope that she had matched your clothes on purpose.

“Have you seen your brother by any chance?” You asked now, reminded of Jeremiah’s sudden leaving. At that Conrad swayed you both into another corner of the dance floor.

“Maybe there was something he has to do. Toilet or something” Conrad answered briefly, not seeming to care very much. But you could feel that Conrad knew exactly what was going on. Did you ask anything further? No! He wouldn’t tell you anyway.

„Maybe“ you agreed. But he wouldn’t have left for the Toilet and taken so long, you thought instead. “It’s nice that you look after him,” You told him honestly.

„What do you mean?“ he now locked eyes with you. Furrowing his eyebrows. It was what he always did. He always was concerned for everything and everyone. The wrinkles between his eyebrows a permanent reminder.

“I mean,” you took a breath. “You came here even though you didn’t want to.” Clearly he was here for belly or Jere. Maybe even Susannah. „And you know with Jere‘s “habits” and all,” you made sure to emphasise the word “habits”!

“It’s just nice that you take care of him.“ You rushed, smiling genuinely afterwards.

“Oh..” He said, seeming to understand what you meant. “I wasn’t for him you know?”

“Right, I forgot Belly is here too. She was dancing with Cam Cameron 10 minutes ago.” You chimed. “They seem to have found each other.”

“I know.” The corners of his mouth were rising and then he chuckled. Wow he really did say a lot this evening you thought sarcastically. But you wouldn’t lie and say this wasn’t most he had talked to you all summer.

“Have you had a drink?” He asked now. The look of concern back on his face. Why did he never break the eye contact? And why does he always have this look of concern on his face? You really did feel like you couldn’t stand this eye contact anymore.

“No. I never drink.” You whispered, afraid that saying it louder would make him go and get you some water and stop this dance. But you could have sworn that he was holding you a bit tighter after, and he didn’t make any signs on letting go of you.

“I know you don’t. I meant real drinking. Water or something else non alcoholic. Although I did think Jere was getting you two a drink, if I’m honest.” He said this so nonchalant that you didn’t really realise he was grinning all along.

“And he would do that,” he added after a while of complete silence. Then you two were back to: just staring at each other and dancing together. Conrad moved one of his hands and put a strain of hair behind your ear. It was only then, that you realised, how close you two actually were. You had put your arms on his shoulder and his remained on your hips. You two were in the middle of the dance floor now. Conrad having apparently moved you from the side during your conversation.

“So your’e alright then?” Now he was the one to whisper. And when you replied with a nod, his concern was washed away and turned into a pleased smile. “Good,” he answered.
