It's Not Like That - A Corbyn Besson Fan Fiction

Fallin'

*quick authors note: we're just gonna pretend there has been no covid and zach doesn't have strep throat*

Y/n POV:

It's apparently been several months since my best friend and his band released music. And they have been working very hard. I've been through it every step of the way.

The release day is today and we're all in the studio. Constantly they're doing interviews and instagram stories and tweeting all leading up to the big event. Everyone's exhausted but so pumped at the same time. Jack looks like he's about to pass out.

8:30am strikes and the boys go live on Youtube for a bit of a pre-livestream q & n with the fans. They start and they look so happy and joyful. I watch from behind the cameras. They answer their questions. I see Corbyn look at me to see how I'm reacting to all this craziness and I give him an excited smile! I mouth, "Yay!" to him showing I am very ready for Fallin' to be released.

30 minutes of questions and the boys say their good byes. 9am. The hour of deliverance Corbyn and I like to call it. Fallin' gets premiered on Youtube. Fan accounts from far and wide go live to show their reactions. The chat flooding with the names of the band when they pop up on screen.

Smiles and cheers are made in the studio as Why Don't We's brand new song gets streamed for the very first time. After it's all done, Jack brings out multiple cases of mango white claw to celebrate. Jack takes a story of them clinking their cans together and everyone cheering in the room.

I hug Corbyn from the side. "I'm so fricking proud of you dude!" I've never seen the man so happy in his life. "Thank you!" He replied and hugged me back and we hit each other's cans together, almost as a toast to each other. "White claw at 9am I don't even care." Jack shouts from his side of the table and the room fills with laughter.

Hours upon hours of promo and zooms and interviews were done as soon as Fallin' hit the internet. Very late at night they all head home. I drove Corbyn since he had another white claw recently the past hour. Everyone that was cooped up in the studio was tired as hell.

I unlocked the door and Corbyn stumbled inside. "Are you drunk or something?" I asked and laughed at the way he's acting. "Try at LEAST 12 hours of staring at a computer screen." He said face planting in a pillow after plopping on the couch lazily. "Um.. your fans don't do that daily?" Corbyn laughed a little and agreed but I under stand why he's so tired. He hasn't eaten that much all day either!

"I'm starving. I'm thirsty. I'm tired. I feel dead as fuck." He whined into the pillow to the point I could barely understand his mumbles. "I'll order pizza." I pulled my phone from my back pocket. "No that'll take forever! I don't have 32 minutes to wait for a pizza." I giggled at the specific time frame he chose and looked in the cabinet.

I searched for a good two minutes. "Mac n cheese with burgers?" I know weird food combo but we're both willing to eat whatever we can throw together in 15 minutes. He nodded and I got straight to cooking.

When I finished I brought the plate to him and I sat on the floor. We said a little prayer thanking God for the food and the amazing day that has brought He as brought us. We eat and talk. "I gotta say if I was in your lane I'd be SHAKING from the video." I was obviously joking and we laughed. But his laugh was a little.. nervous? Maybe he was choking on some food while laughing but it sounded different to me. I shook it off quickly as I do everything that concerns me.

Corbyn puts his plate on the table after basically inhaling his meal and lays back. "Thank you, Y/n. It was SO good bro." I smiled and nodded. I cleaned the dishes and Corbyn left to his room. Probably to shower and change to turn in for the knight.

Jonah walked in with his friend Eben. "Ayy guys!" I shout and smile. "Congrats on Fallin'!" Jonah jumps up and down in genuine excitement. "We already hit number one on the charts!!" I smile and hug him. I glance at the kitchen showing that foods already cooked for him and I head upstairs.

I change into booty shorts and an oversized Mad at You hoodie. I went to grab a candle from the closet and Corbyn opens his door. "Hey Y/, wanna watch a movie!" He saw I have a candle in my hand and adds, "Oooo what scent is it? You can burn it in here if you like." I smile at his offer and grab the box of matches and go in his room. I light up the carmel latte scented candle and lay in his bed.

We decided to watch Fault in The Stars on Disney+. It made us both so emotional we're both in tears. A scene comes on about an hour into the movie where Hazel and Augustus are making out on the bed slowly taking their tops off. I turn into a deep red and pull out my phone from my hoodie pocket to distract myself. I feel eyes on me but I keep looking down at my snapchat messages. I looked up for a split second and Hazel unclipped her bra and I looked down quickly again.

"Does this make you uncomfortable?" Corbyn laughs at me. "I mean they're gonna full out have sex right now so a little bit." I lay down and keep my eyes on my phone. He fast forwards the scene but I still felt some kind of.. tension? I couldn't figure it out. I laid my head on the pillow next to his and Corbyn looks over at me.

"What?" I ask looking at him. He shakes his head and turns off the tv. "Night L/n." He said after turning off the lamp and facing away from me. "Goodnight?"
