surprise surprise, more Jude. Here's a confession, someone on tumblr requested this in like 2021 (I think), and now, in 2023, I'm publishing it! hope u enjoy 

request/context: Hello, soo I thought on one with Jude in which your older than him (22) and you start to receive hate and people calling you cougar and he acts very mature with you

Second person pov 

"This is fuckin' ridiculous." You grumbled, running a hand through your luscious locks.

You scoffed at the Instagram dm you'd received from a fanpage of his.

What the fuck is wrong with you. He's a newly turned adult and you're a grown woman. Get a guy your own age you cougar 🙄

This was just one of the many messages like this you'd been receiving for the past three days. You'd been dating Jude since the end of July 2021, the two of you'd gone public in November. At that time, most people adored you two. They thought your relationship was so sweet and adorable. With the exception of the occasional jealous fan girl.

However, recently, Jude's fans had managed to find out how old you were, and well, let's just say they weren't happy. After realising there was a three year age different between the two of you, they went at you hard.

You were accused of being a cougar, grooming him, using a younger guy for his looks and money etc.

The hate didn't make you cry but you sure as hell were pissed off that you didn't do anything wrong.

"Jesus. They need to chill out." You sighed as you read another message.

HE IS BARELY 20. WE KNOW YOU GROOMED HIM.

"Right how the hell could you groom him if you met him after he turned 18?" You best friend Zara shook her head as she read the message.

"Okay bro I get they care about Jude and all a lot but they gotta calm down." Zara mumbled.

"Zara. I didn't do anything wrong. Did I? Is he too young for me?" You began to doubt the certainty that there was nothing wrong with you dating Jude.

"Uh hell no! There's no such thing as too yo—actually there is. However, Jude's 20 and only like three years younger. The people sending you these messages are just jealous twelve year old simps, nothing to worry about love." Zara comforted. You nodded numbly. "I gotta go for dinner. Jude will be home any minute know. I'll see you later Zara." You hugged your friend goodbye.

"Bye Y/N. Remember love, don't let it get to you." She whispered into your ear.

Begrudgingly, you left Zara's apartment and started on your journey back to Jude's which in honesty, was not very far.

You put your AirPods in, turned up some Taylor Swift and made your way to the underground station. Just a few stops to go, then you'd be home. Humming along to Welcome To New York, you felt all of your worries had gone away. The people who insulted you on social media were just silly and jealous.

Wow, Taylor Swift really could make all of your problems go away.

You were about one stop away when you realised two girls across from you were frantically whispering. They looked about your age, maybe 20/21.

They spoke quickly and in a hushed manner. But not quiet enough, because you could understand them perfectly fine. The girls spoke in German, which they probably assumed you did not understand.

"Yeah that's the girl. The one who's dating Jude." The raven haired mumbled, eyeing you up and down.

"Ah. She's pretty." The other one, a redhead responded.
