#steve and billy arent even married

[cavinginhisfvce]

Billy, having a nerf gun war with the kids, when he's backed into a corner by Max and El, both holding their guns up at him with sinister smirks.

"Any last words, blondie?"

With his hands held up in surrender, Billy sighs, "tell Steve I love him. And he better not remarry!"

Before the words are even fully out, the two girls are pelting him with nerf bullets, cackling at his dramatic display of falling over the couch, a hand clutching his chest.

Having thots about Steve who's engaged to Nancy. Steve who got kind of swept up into a life he hates and doesn't want with the family business office job and the boring old-people social life. Who's been putting off the wedding for a long time for reasons he can't even explain, and who is finally dragging himself through the process of it all. Who hires a fancy wedding planning agency to basically do most of it all for him, and winds up with Billy as his assigned PA.

Billy who looks absolutely nothing like the other staff he's met. Who rocks up to their first meeting in jeans so tight Steve genuinely wonders how he can move, a deep plum silk shirt, glossy curls and a dangly earring and clunky boots with metal bits on them. Nancy is, of course, horrified, even if she's too perfectly polite to let it on. Steve is...

Enthralled.

Nancy refuses any and all of Billy's help so Billy becomes less 'their' PA and more just Steve's. And at first they're kind of civil enemies. Billy has this way of insulting him without it really being an overt insult, and Steve has this way of staring at Billy's ass and then getting angry at Billy for it. And it doesn't help that Steve just. Goes along with whatever Billy says. Mostly.

And it opens his eyes up to a whole new world. Billy takes him day drinking and impromptu lake swimming and takes him to a metal concert and basically just drags Steve into the exact kind of life he's always wanted and never had. The kind of things he used to do as a kid before the noose of adulthood and the Harrington family name tightened. The kind of things he never got the chance to do.

The wedding is a month away when Steve actually sits down and looks at everything and realizes somewhere along the line he stopped planning a wedding to marry Nancy, and started planning a wedding as if he was marrying Billy....

I LOVE EMOTIONAL CHEATING AND SCANDAL!

this au would not be complete without a scene of billy and steve at the caterer to pick out a wedding cake flavor and they get mistaken for the married couple and steve goes to correct the baker but billy, the shit he is, interrupts him with "yep! we're so excited about our big day arent we honey?" and at first steve has alarms going off in his head like *bad idea bad idea bad idea* but those are quickly overridden by temptation to play along and pretend he's billys fiance and next thing he knows hes creating this whole elaborate story about their "proposal" and theyre going back and forth making up their love story and the bakers totally eating up like "this is so romantic, i can see you two are soulmates" and thats when it gets decidedly less funny for steve because oh... that does actually sound pretty fitting for some reason, has a nice ring to it...

#rip to nancy but shes probably fucking jonathan on the side anyway (affectionate) so its fine #harringrove #briana answers things
