11. who said "I love you" first

Requested, Sarahcarp_gmw

Sadie

- she did, it slipped out 

- you haven't seen each other for two months since she was filming a new movie on the other side of the world

- you decided to surprise at the airport, and when she saw you, girl dropped her suitcases and ran to you

- kisses kisses kisses all over your face

- "you have no idea how much I missed you. Being away from you made me realize how much I needed you, like damn I love you so much that I—"
   "wait, you what?"

- Sadie covered her mouth in disbelief, but you were so in love with her that you smiled widely before grabbing her face to kiss her. "You love me?"

- "Uh... I... You know... *sighs in surrender* I do. I love you, Y/n"

- "I love you too, Sades"

- the fans and paparazzi around getting new content of love at the airport 🤭

Max

- she did it

- you were separated when the Mind Flayer broke into the Starcourt Mall, she left with Mike and El while you were hiding with the rest of the group

- after the battle and when everything calmed, Max was next to Billy's body holding his hand, seeing that everyone was reuniting, but she started to panic when she didn't see you

- "Max" you mumbled from behind. She immediately turned around and stood up to bounce on you. She hold you placing one of her hands on your neck as the other held your back squeezing you, as you hided your face on her neck and embraced her waist tightly

- you two separated still holding one another, and looking at you she whispered it. "I love you"

-  you sighed not believing it, but sure of what you felt at that moment. "I love you", you kissed the tip of her nose, her forehead and finally her lips before hugging once again

Ziggy

- you did

- you both having been going through a really hard moment since you two lost your sisters Cindy and Joan a few months ago, six months exactly

- you never stopped having feeling for each other, but ever since that night something changed in you two

- it was a certain afternoon, you were on a junkyard sitting in the hood of a car as watching the sun in the horizon, none of you said a word and didn't have to, just knowing you were there for one another was enough

- you slightly turned your head towards her and looked at her out of the corner of your eye, thinking that despite everything Ziggy was, is and will be there for her

- "I love you" you simply said, this time looking at the sun. Ziggy turned at you and seeing you were serious, she started crying

- you came to her and hugged her knowing how hard was for her 1) to open up with people, so it was weird seeing her crying; 2) she hated when she was vulnerable, hence she hated when you see her crying; 3) she hasn't let her bad feelings out, accumulating them inside her, at some point she was going to explode and that seemed to be the moment

- you shushed her, cradling her in your arms when you heard a soft whisper saying "I love you too"

Tess

- she did, but not to you directly. Oopsies

- there was a customer at your work that would go to see Tess instead of buying, this dude was so obsessed that he learned at what day and time Tess would visit you

- you weren't there the moment this guy —after many failed attempts in the previous days— asked Tess to go on a date. You would have loved to be there though, to see how Tess rejected him epically, yet you witness something else

- "dude how do I make it clear for you? I'm not interested in going out with you, I'm not interested in going out with any boy, what's more, I don't even like boys! I'm so fucking in love with my GIRLfriend, okay? She's the only one for me. I-LOVE-HER"

- "you what?" you asked in disbelief making Tess gulp

- "NO! Ha-ha, I didn't meant it— WAIT NO! it's not that I don't love you because I doOo..." bitch was so nervous. "Uh, what is love anyway? Define 'love', like it may vary depending on—"

- "wait so you are a dyke?" asked that mfer boy

- before Tess could talk, you did it. "HEY! MORE RESPECT TO MY GIRLFRIEND. I LOVE HER AND I WON'T LET ANY FUCKING DOUCHEBAG TALK TO HER LIKE THAT"

- that asshole ran away as soon as he saw Jimmy crossing his arms and standing near you

- "wait, you love me? 🥺"
   "Tess, you said it first anyway 😏"

Ellie

- you did it of course, during a date at the water tower, after 4 months

- bitch got petrified

- i don't blame her tho, it may be the first time in a long time that someone has said those three powerful words to you

- you freaked out a little when she didn't reply back, just stood there looking at illuminated town at night

- "you don't have to say it back. I did it cause I mean it, and because it's good even for oneself to let it out, repressing emotions it's unhealthy... If you don't feel it yet, that's ok, I don't wanna put any pressure on you... And if you never get that feeling, I'll understand... I rather hear that you don't love me than hearing a fake and empty 'I love you' for compromise"

- even tho Ellie was frozen, she heard every single word, and God that woman lost it at your maturity

- "If we love someone and we don't tell them, what is the use of having the feeling inside one?" Charlie told her once

- you did freak out when Ellie stopped coming at Charlie's. He tried his best to keep your mind distracted until one day she just came and ordered you to put on your shoes and go with her

- Ellie took you to a meadow saying she needed some pictures for a project, so things went back to normal with you two chatting as always while Ellie was taking the pictures

- she asked you to be in at least one picture, and although taking photos wasn't your favorite activity you did it for her

- as adjusting the camera to frame you with the meadow in the background, Ellie realized how cute you looked, with that tiny shy smile letting her know you were kind of nervous

- "alright, to the count of 3... One... Two... I love you" she said and you froze

- your face was blank, until little by little the biggest smile she's ever seen appeared on your face, and by inertia Ellie took the picture

- she made like ten copies of that photo
