Ant and Dec One Shots

Five Sweet Moments With Ant, Dec And Stephen, And A Night Of Comfort

First Moment: Movie Night Under the Stars

Ant, Dec, and Stephen transformed Ant's backyard into a cosy, magical retreat for movie night. Soft fairy lights glowed overhead, casting a gentle, warm light over the scene as they zigzagged through the trees, their golden tones shimmering against the deepening night sky. They spread out a thick, quilted blanket on the grass, piling it high with plush cushions in every shade of blue and grey. A few blankets lay ready to be pulled over them once the night air turned crisp.

In front of their makeshift theatre-a large projector screen they'd hung up that afternoon-Stephen nestled right between Ant and Dec, a perfect fit, with his friends close on either side. As they pressed play on The Princess Bride, Dec immediately leaned over to whisper something cheeky into Stephen's ear, his voice soft but mischievous. Ant, grinning, joined in, their whispered banter making Stephen laugh until he had to stifle his giggles so they wouldn't drown out the movie.

As the film played, the three passed a large bowl of buttery popcorn, trading jokes about scenes, pretending to "predict" lines in overly dramatic voices, and tossing popcorn at each other during the funnier moments. At one point, Dec leaned his head on Stephen's shoulder, sighing contentedly, while Ant draped an arm casually behind Stephen, a quiet but reassuring presence. The warmth between them was unmistakable, a blend of lighthearted teasing and genuine affection that felt as comforting as the blankets wrapped around them.

When the movie finally reached its heartwarming end, Stephen felt a wave of gratitude for these two friends who made him feel so cherished and at home. Dec gave Stephen a gentle kiss on the cheek, a sweet, unspoken promise of their friendship, while Ant reached over to ruffle his hair, his grin wide and genuine. With a last shared laugh, they lingered for a few minutes longer under the starlit sky, surrounded by the warmth of each other's presence, knowing they wouldn't trade these moments for the world.

Second Moment: A Day at the Beach

On a rare day off, they took a winding drive to a secluded beach, eager to escape the whirlwind of their lives. The ocean stretched endlessly before them, glistening under the late morning sun, and the only sounds were the gentle rustling of palm trees and the rhythmic crash of waves. Stephen, balancing an armful of towels and drinks, chased after Ant and Dec, who were already knee-deep in the sparkling blue water, laughing and splashing as if they'd left all cares behind.

As he waded in, Stephen felt the cool, refreshing water rush over his toes, rising higher with each step. With a mischievous grin, he darted toward Ant and Dec, who were already engrossed in a splash battle. It wasn't long before Stephen seized his chance, sneaking up behind Dec to give him a surprise dunk under the water. Dec came up laughing, water dripping from his hair, sputtering a playful "Oi, you cheeky thing!" But before Stephen could dart away, he felt strong arms wrap around him-Ant's "revenge" was swift. He scooped Stephen up and carried him, both of them laughing, until they were deep enough to tumble back into the water together, waves breaking around them.

Their laughter echoed over the beach, mingling with the crash of the surf as they chased and splashed each other through the waves, splashing with abandon like children set free from all responsibilities. Eventually, breathless and beaming, they made their way back to their towels spread out on the warm sand. They flopped down, basking in the sun's gentle warmth as it dried their skin, each of them content and glowing from their seaside escapade.

Lying side by side, Dec draped a casual arm around Stephen, who felt a warmth in his chest that matched the sun above. He smiled as Dec looked at him and softly murmured, "Love you, mate." The words were simple, but they carried an easy sincerity that made Stephen's heart swell with gratitude. He glanced from Dec to Ant, feeling surrounded by a sense of belonging that went beyond words.
