beta squad imagines and one shots! 🙊

niko - brother

...
One day, I was busy trying to get through to my brother Kenny on FaceTime, while he was at a shoot. I knew he was really likely to not pick up, but I tried anyway.

After about 5 times, he finally picked up only for me to see somebody elses face. "Niko???" I couldn't help my smile, but he couldn't know that, so I hid my face from the camera to only show my eyes. He chuckled "What's up?" "Why do you have Kennys phone?" He could tell I was puzzled and laughed "Don't worry about it" Niko hung up

I was still confused but all that melted away when I felt my face feeling hot and a giant grin on my face. Just by seeing his face and hearing his voice, I felt butterflies in my stomach and my heart skipping beats.

Now the thing is, I REALLY like Niko. Like, a big crush on him but he can't know. I've wanted to tell him for so long but I can't tell him because his best friend is my older brother, so it might mess up how it is right now.

I've known Niko for such a long time now and for as long as I can remember, I've liked him but I don't think he feels the same way about me.

Despite this, I've been trying to find away to tell him because I'm getting tired of keeping my feelings inside.

...

A few days after that call, I went to go see Kenny in the beta house due to some plans we made to go to the movies that night. We had planned for me to go to the house, then we'll leave together.

I didn't call him but I texted him once I got there.

Me
KENNYYYY
im here
open the door

Ken😛
yn I got caught up in some stuff
so ur gonna have to wait
Niko's home tho
So he can let you in the house cuz it's raining

Me
oh okay
that's fine

Niko? Why does it always have to be him?? I thought to myself as I hesitated to ring the doorbell, my finger hovering over it.

Nerves ran through my body waiting for somebody to answer the door. It felt like ages till I saw the door open.

"Yn?" "Hey Niko, I'm here for Kenny." I couldn't barely mutter the words out of my mouth. "Right he told me you'll be here for a bit, but he's not home right now." "I know.. but do you mind if I come in till he's here?"

"Yeah of course" Niko opened the door and I felt him watch me as I walked into the house.

I've been here a lot before, so I made myself comfortable and sat on their couch, while Niko joined me moments later. It was awkward for a bit because I hadn't been alone with him in a long time and it felt foreign.

I noticed that he glanced at me staring at my lap. It was torture having it be so quiet and I couldn't feel my stomach turning with nerves and anxiety being around him.

"So do you wanna watch a movie?" He broke the silence. Thank goodness he said something "Yeah why not, it'll kill the time anyway." I replied and he turned on my favourite movie. I was shocked for a bit at the fact that he put on this movie but I remembered a conversation we had sometime ago about movies. He remembered my favourite movie..

And I know it might not be a big deal because he remembers things about everybody he spends time with, but Niko and I barely see each other anymore, so for him to remember this is baffling.

I noticed there was a large distance between us and moved closer to him, at the same time he moved to me, making our thighs touch. He looked down at me as I looked at him. I saw a slight change of colour in his face and we both looked back at the TV.

Oh my gosh is this really happening right now? I thought to myself, butterflies flying through my body.

"Niko.." I said still looking at the TV. "Yea?" "This is my favourite movie" I smiled "Really, I had no idea" he said trying to hide his smile.

He was clearly lying when he said that. I giggled "Of course you didn't" I murmured sarcastically

Time goes by and we're 25 minutes into the movie and we can't stop talking. That interaction made us spiral into conversation not even paying attention to what's around us. It felt like how it did before we stopped talking as much.

It went silent for a bit and I found myself with my legs resting across his legs and my upper body resting in the edge of the couch. I glanced at my legs and back up at him, resting his hands on my claves.

"Oh sorry sorry" he removed his hands. "No it's fine" I responded. "Ive really missed you yn" he said. "Oh really?" he laughed and his voice went deep. "What can I say?"

it was quiet for a few moments and a voice in my head was telling me that I needed to tell him at one point and that it was now or never.

"Niko" I said not making much eye contact. "Yeah?" "We've known each other for time now" He nodded "Let me just say it" I shot my head up at him "I like you a LOT Niko.. I've liked you for such a long time now and I didn't tell you until now because I didn't want to ruin anything between us or for you and Kenny"

I kept rambling on and on about how I feel not listening much to what he was saying. He eventually cut me off. "Yn!" I looked at him "Did you hear anything I said?" Niko said, making eye contact as I stayed quiet. "I like you too.."

I hesitated to respond as I was in disbelief with what I just heard. "What?" I could feel a smile coming onto my face. "How come you didn't say anything?" I giggled

"Same reasons as you, and I was a bit scared of the outcome" our faces inched closer and closer together

"Is that so?" I whispered as he came closer and closer.

He gave me a small kiss. That one kiss felt like fireworks, it was something that I've never thought would happen for a long time and it finally did.

We couldn't do anything after but watch the movie, but I felt how happy we both were, too giddy to say anything. I laid down on his chest continuing to watch the movie with the sound of his heart pounding through his chest.

I really love this boy.
