#plug!simon

Ohhhh this hurts sooooo good give it to me I can take it

c/w: mentions of weed

your friend off-handedly mentioning that they’re always at the local pub together every friday with a few of simon’s mates. the potential of him being taken shouldn’t burn but it does, especially when you thought he was beginning to show interest in you

and sure enough, you find them both there together. you watch them for a while before he finally spots you. watch the way she hangs off his arm in a way you’d be too nervous to do, and the way she whispers in his ear before he pulls out his wallet to hand her some cash for their next round

he only sees the back of your head darting out the door but he knows it was you, and he knows it’s all fucked up, that he’s scared you off proper now

he doesn’t hear from you for a while which confirms his suspicions that you’re upset, even when he goes out his comfort zone to reach out to you first. something he’s never found himself doing with another customer

need anything tonight luv?

got some more of that stuff you liked delivered. put some aside for ya, bird

running low?

if it’s really late, you won’t respond at all. if it’s earlier, you’ll give a polite ‘no thank you :)’ response. after two weeks of you brushing him off with the same three words, you finally give him a different response when he offers another drop off at 2AM

simon who starts to do pick ups and drop offs around your area, beams his lights outside your house until he sees your curtains move and then he’s gone with only a flash of his recognisable number plate

pings your phone late at night when he gets really tired of not hearing from you,

left some stuff at your door. only got this stuff in cos you wanted it

followed by a huge blunt ‘👍’ from him which makes you laugh out through your nostrils, even though you’re upset with him because you know this is his attempt at trying to sound nice over text

at your door you find a crumpled tesco bag with your pink rolling papers and flavoured filters, alongside some of the usual snacks you grab when he’d take you to the shops

Mmmmm I need to see him rolling a spliff

thick fingers careful not to rip the pretty pink rolling papers that he told you he didn’t have last week

eyes flicking up to hold your stare when he drags his tongue across the paper

Also totally tells reader to not repay him back next time they meet, just his natural instinct to provide for his favorite customer.

ugh and the way he just subtly upgrades your meals without even asking. The simple burger you asked for is being ordered as a large meal with a drink, even throws a few sweet treats into the order

and this man orders like big smoke. two number 9s, a number 9 large, a number 6 with extra dip type shit and he’ll inhale that food like someone is gonna take it from him (eater!simon hc ftw)

also the way he pops open his wallet and you catch a peek at the fat stack of notes he’s got wedged in there

- Biscuits 🌺

Reader’s friend who thinks you’ve been getting picked up by some random guy when you off-handedly mention how nice ghost is to you

Then I remembered weed isn’t legal in the UK 💀😔

Also recently I tried weed for the first time with some friends via a flavored pen and I had a “this edible ain’t shit” type moment. Felt nothing and then I was out of it

nah I hear it but I need you guys to understand that the plug!au with Simon only works for me when there’s a criminal element. otherwise, it isn’t sexy.
