Will Jay Imagines | #Wattys2017

"2 kids and a marriage ago"

I was currently in the mall just window shopping while chomping on a pretzel. I wasn't paying any attention to where I was going, because my gaze was diverted from my path due to the attracting clothing that was displayed in the windows, so when I bumped into someone I wasn't exactly surprised. I was shocked but I figured it was bound to happen due to my natural tendency to not pay attention. "I'm so sorry are you okay?" A voice asks. I looked up and saw the hand that was being offered and I gladly took it. "I'm fine, thanks, and I'm really sorry too," I say as I brush off the dust and dirt that had been on the floor that had now transferred to the fabric of my black leggings. I looked up and I saw the face of someone I thought I would never see. "I'm Will and this is Dylan," He says with his hand extended. As I shake it, I hear another voice. "What about us?" I look over and I see John and Alex shaking their heads at him. "I didn't feel like naming you all," He said. "Don't worry I know who you all are," I say. Their faces dropped a little. "Oh," Will muttered. "I'm Natalie, but don't worry I'm not an obsessive fan girl, just because I know who you are doesn't mean I know when your birthday is," I tell them. "Do you?" Will asks. "No," I answer definitively. "Well in the future mine is June 18th," He says with a grin. "I'll keep that in mind for the next time I see you, which will probably be never," I mention, pointing out that we weren't friends. "We can change that," Will says and I look up at him with raised eyebrows as if to say 'oh really' and he just smirked. "There's this party later tonight, your welcome to come if you want to," He offers. I gage the other boys' facial expressions to see how they feel about it. All of them either didn't care or were encouraging it so I thought why not. It wasn't like I had anything else to do with my life. I didn't exactly want to go home to my abusive and alcoholic father, besides he wouldn't care anyways. My mom? Oh I don't have one. Well I did, but she is dead to me. She gave me up for adoption when I was two and then at four my current father adopted me. So thankfully I'm not related to him, but I still have to live with him. "Yeah, I'm down, got nothing better to do with my life," I say and join the boys on their mall mission, whatever that might be. "Your life has to be more interesting than that," Will pushes. "Nope," I say quickly, avoiding the subject. I didn't like to talk about it, not just because it made me uncomfortable but I didn't like people to pity me, and many other people would say stuff like that just to gain attention and that wasn't what I wanted. I spent the rest of the day with the guys. It was actually pretty cool, I couldn't believe that they would hang out with me. They had their group of 4 guys and they seemed to be so close yet they let me walk around with them AND they were taking me to this party? Wow. I couldn't believe it. However I didn't question it.

At around 7:30 pm we all left the mall and I quickly found myself in unfamiliar surroundings and it frightened me a bit. "You okay?" a voice asks. I turn my head to see Will right next to me. I had grown closer to him throughout the course of the day, he was really easy to talk to, extremely funny, and not to mention extremely gorgeous. "Yeah, just a bit nervous, never been out here before," I tell him truthfully. "There's nothing to worry about. If you want you can hold my hand," He says extending his hand to mine. I smile and take it. His hand felt perfect in mine, like it was , sorry it's cliché, meant to be. I couldn't imagine holding anyone else's hand. And I think that Will felt it too, however I quickly brushed it off. There was no way Will could possibly like me. I knew that I wasn't ugly but I wasn't pretty and I wasn't all that energetic. But the thing is, I had only met him that day, he couldn't possibly like me. I decided to not let my "feelings" get in the way of the fun I was planning on having tonight.

I dragged Will into the raging house, even though I had no idea where I was going, and grabbed the first drink I could find: vodka. Yeah, I was drunk. Really drunk. "Natalie, I think I should take you home, won't your parents be upset if you're not home by midnight or something?" Will asks me with a concerned face. I stumble along as I 'dance' to the music. "Nahhh, daddy doooessn't car-uh- care, about mee„" I slur out. "I'm sure he does," Will reasons. I stop dancing and take another swig from the bottle in my hand which Will quickly takes away. "Funny, then why does he beat me and abuse me?" I ask rhetorically with no slur whatsoever. Will's face morphed into one of shock as I just calmly walked out of the house. I didn't know where I was going I just wanted to walk. I wasn't mad that I had told him but I didn't mean to. I just wanted to walk now. Walking helped. Walking helped a lot. "Natalie! Wait!" I heard Will calling me but I didn't stop. I liked walking. I knew he would catch up to me and he did. He ran to my side and continued to walk with me but the unsteadiness of his breath was evident even though I was extremely drunk. I didn't get drunk often, because of the way my father was always drunk, it scared me. But I didn't want that to stop me from having a good time. I wasn't a light weight but I couldn't hold liquor as well as most people could. But when I was drunk I kind of became a recluse and was very quiet unless in a loud environment. I wouldn't do anything stupid. "What do you mean he abuses you?" Will asks seriously. He was completely sober, I had noted that he never sipped his drink. Yeah, I was drunk but I was also observant. "Just that, he abuses me," I say. "He hits you?" Will asks astonished. "No, he gives me chocolate kisses every night!" I shout at him. "Yes he hits me, kicks me, and punches me, what else do you want?!" I exclaim. Once I had shouted I immediately stepped back a bit. I didn't mean to yell at Will and it was like all the alcohol was gone, I felt sober now. "I'm so sorry Will...I didn't mean to yell," I said quietly. "No it's fine Natalie, you have every right to be angry about this," He says his breath even more uneven than before. "No one should ever treat you that way or anyone for that matter. No one should have to endure the pain of that!" He says firmly but it was more like he was talking to himself rather than to me. I reach my hand out hesitantly to comfort him and when my hand touches his arm he tenses but soon relaxes. "Will, I'm fine, I've had to live with it and it could be worse," I say as I bring him in for a hug. I was really trying to convince myself more than I was Will but it was a win-win situation. "Nothing is worse than knowing that someone who is meant to love and care for you is doing the exact opposite," Will says as he stares into my eyes. I smiled at the bitter sweetness of his statement. "Thanks Will but it's not like I can just leave," I say. "Well how old are you?" He asks. "17, not old enough yet," I say. "But I turn 18 next week and I have been planning on moving out but wasn't quite sure where yet, I just need to leave," I tell him. "Well you can come stay with the boys and I," He says with a smile. "Are you serious?" I ask with watery eyes. "Of course," He says. I jump into his arms and wrap my legs around his waist as I hug him tightly. "Thank you so much Will," I whisper.

I open my eyes and the room was still dark and I roll to my side to see Will and I's wedding picture. I was grabbing his tie smirking as he's looking at me trying to follow but Alex, Dylan, and John are holding him back not wanting him to go with me. The picture always makes me laugh and I remember the wedding... "Natalie, it's time to start. Girls you better go out and get to your spots." Xiao says as she looks at me. Xiao is walking me down the aisle instead because my dad and I aren't close after I moved in with Will and the guys. Xiao takes my arm and says, "I knew Will would get an amazing girl one day, but I couldn't have imagined a better girl for him than you, Natalie. You are so sweet to him. You mean the world to him. You two are perfect together." She wipes a tear from my cheek. "Xiao!" I laugh, "Don't say things like that right now! I can't mess up my makeup!" She laughs. "You look beautiful sweetie, Are you ready?" "I've been ready since the day I met him." I say.

Finally the doors swing open and everyone stands up, all eyes are on me as "Here Comes the Bride" begins to play from the orchestra in the front of the church. I look at the groomsmen. Standing there is Alex, Dylan, and John, all in their suits with a vest and bow tie. I then look at my bridesmaids. Standing there was Sophie, Sandy, and Olivia and they're all in their aqua blue, floor length, satin gowns. And right at the altar, stood the man of my dreams, William Jay Behlendorf.

"I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss the bride." Will pulled me in for a kiss as everyone cheered. "It is my pleasure to present for the first time, Mr. and Mrs. Behlendorf!" I looked at Will and he looked at me. The rest of the boys came over to congratulate the both of us. "Will, you got yourself a keeper." Alex says. "Yeah man. You two look so great together. Congrats." Dylan adds. "Will just remember to treat her right. I know you will." John chimes in. "CONGRATULATIONS MR. AND MRS. BEHLENDORF!" Caroline screams. "Only you Caroline. Only you." I laugh.

I walk out of the chapel hand in hand with Will. "Natalie. I love you so much." Will whispers in my ear. He pecks me on the lips again as we drive to the venue of the reception. When we arrive at the venue and everyone is there, it is time for Will and I's first dance as husband and wife. I dance in his arms to the song of "Thinking out loud" by Ed Sheeran. "Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars," Will whispered as he kissed me for the fifth time during the dance.

It came to the best man's speech, and Dylan walked in front of the head table and grabbed the mic. "Will, you are my best friend. You are practically my brother. When we were in an interview you said that until you find the perfect girl, you have me." Dylan begins to fake cry as me, Will, and all the guests burst out in laughter. "I guess you don't need me anymore, because Natalie is the perfect girl for you." Will smiles at me. "But seriously Will, I am so happy for the two of you. Now let's all make a toast, to Will and Natalie's fairytale ending. A Happily Ever After. Thank you." Dylan sits down and I kiss Will.

"Natalie!" "Natalie!" "Natalie! Wake up!' I shake my head and open my eyes. "What?" I ask groggily. "It's time to get up honey," Will says as he kisses my forehead. "I was having a good dream," I complain as I nuzzle my forehead into Will's chest. "What was it about?" He asks as he strokes my hair. "The first time we met and then our wedding day," I say with a smile and his hand stops stroking my hair and looks down at you. "That was a long time ago," He says as our two kids come running in the room and I play with the wedding ring on my finger. "Mommy look what Trini did to me." My son Kaden says pointing to his face that was full of make-up and my daughter Trini giggling behind him. Will and I laugh at the two of them and then Will's face gets serious "Trini Lynn Behlendorf, I think it's only fair then that he gets to do your make-up" Will says making Kaden smirk at his younger sister and she runs for her bedroom. "Kaden Michael Behlendorf" I say making him stop in his tracks and look back at me, "Be nice to your sister now." He smiles big and nods "Don't worry mommy I'm going to be the best big brother ever and I won't ever let anything happen to her" he then runs off after his little sister. "Yeah two kids and a marriage ago," I say with a smile. "Yeah. Two kids and a marriage ago," He repeats to himself. 😊💞
