Not Another Conquest - Colin Shea x Reader

Warnings: Angst, pining, language!

When you first moved into apartment 6C, the first time you met your neighbour was when he awkwardly said goodbye the last nights conquest.

You were walking up to your apartment, box in hand when the door opened and a woman stepped out. You listened in as he promised to call her, you could tell it was bare faced lie. When the woman left you glanced over at him, dressed in only boxers, snorting with laughter.

"Well, this isn't the first impression I was hoping to make" he said scratching the back of his neck.

"I'm Colin by the way" he says holding out his hand.

"(Y/N)" you say putting the box down and shaking his hand.

"Do you need a hand carrying boxes up?" Colin offered.

"No this is the last one, plus you have a girl to call don't you" you smirk making him laugh.

"Maybe later don't wanna seem too eager, but if you want a hand unpacking I can bring the beer and Chinese?" Colin suggested.

"Sure, but get dressed first" you say nodding down to his boxers.

"What you not impressed?" He smirked holding his arms out.

"Not even slightly" you state shaking your head as you step inside your apartment leaving Colin laughing in the corridor.

Like promised an hour later Colin appears with a case of beer and ready to help unpack. You initially asked him to help unpack your clothes but when he started giggling when he found your underwear you sent him to the kitchen.

From that day you and Colin became quick friends. You allowing him to hide in your apartment whenever needed. Him bringing you take out and beer in return.

While you could admit that Colin was a very attractive man, and a cool guy to hang out with. You swore to yourself that you would never become one of his conquests.

Your heart didn't seem to agree with your brain though. As after over a year of knowing him you found yourself falling for the guy. You'd get excited whenever you saw him, butterflies fluttering in your stomach, heart skipping a beat.

You hated it.

Because there was no way that he would feel the same way. He would only see you as another conquest, nothing more. Especially since there was still a steady stream of female companions leaving his apartment. And in the time that you'd known him he was always joking around about getting you into his bed.

You had just gotten back from a long shift at work, all you wanted to do when you got in was collapse in bed. Something that was robbed from you since when you walked into your apartment you found Colin passed out in your bed.

"Hey what are you doing" you say hitting his leg waking him up with a snort.

"What time is it?" He asks as he rubs the sleep from his eyes.

"7pm, now back to my original question what are you doing in my bed" you say moving round to the side of the bed he wasn't occupying.

"Well, I came here to hide but wanted a nap and your bed looked comfy and here I am" he explains not getting up.

"Come join me" he says patting the space next to him.

"Don't you have another girl to chase down" you scoff as you sit down.

"Not tonight, but hey how about I order some Chinese and we stick on a movie we've never watched, put it on mute and try to guess the plot and dialogue" Colin suggests.
