thanks mark ethan nestor x reader

the media

"joshua henry black. he was my first love and the media fucked everything."
"oh shit i know him. he's the music guy"
"yep. we dated from when i was 17-20. so let's take a dive."

you type your name into the search bar and his name pops is as the third following y/n net worth and y/n age.

y/n and josh black

did y/n cheat on joshua black?

y/n and josh black call it quits after almost 4 years

should jhb dump y/n after cheating rumors?

the end of y/n and josh? media pressure or imploding of the relationship.

who is y/n with instead of joshua henry black?

"imma just say it i didn't cheat on him and we are on good terms. but like we don't talk much now. but we were in a break because things weren't going as smoothly as they were and so we put a pin in it and i went to the club with my friends and they took pics as we walked out. the dude in the pic with me was and still is married to a guy!"
"that's fucked up"
"i know and like things were already strained and the added media presence swarming us. we just decided it was for the best and we didn't want to tell everyone that because it would just look like us trying to demonize the press."

you lean into ethan and he puts an arm around you. he leans back and you fall with him.

"i knew me and josh probably weren't going to last i mean when we met we were both teenagers and like it would've been nice but like shit. at least we got to be heartbroken but not broken by each other ya know?"
"yea i get it."
"i want to be with you but like i don't want the media involved because those leeches have nothing better to do. we can go public after a while if you're okay with it"
"i'd like that"

he pulls you closer and you two fall asleep.

*a/n sorry for the short chapter this is ok set up for other parts of the story.
