“She’s My Girl”
Mason Mount x Reader
Warning - None? Fluff
—————————————————————————
I remember Mason saying something about an online interview with Declan today, but I would be lying if I said I remembered what time it was at. So, you can imagine my surprise and embarrassment when I walked into my boyfriends game room to find him doing an interview with his best friend and Rio Ferdinand!
I do my best to leave the room quietly, but subtlety wasn’t exactly a skill I owned. Mase turns his head and smiles at me.
“Babe? Are you okay?”
I do my best to stay out of view of the camera and I mumble out an answer.
“I forgot you had your press junket, I just wanted to know if you wanted something to eat.”
As soon as the words left my mouth, I could hear Declan’s voice coming from the computer.
“Hey yo! Is that the Misses Mase?! Y/N!”
I walk over to the desk and give Dec a small wave trying to suppress nervous laughter as both him and Ferdinand peer at me. Mason senses my nerves and pulls me sideways into his lap. I curl into him and wrap myself into his hoodie as if to protect myself from this unfamiliar situation.
“it’s a good job I put pants on isn’t it” I whisper up to Mase as he chuckles at me.
The interview continues and overtime I start to feel more and more comfortable. I watch as they talk all these football and as Dec beats Mason on yet another FIFA game. Every now and then I get a question directed at me which I do my best to answer.
“So, Y/N what is it like living with Mase during Lockdown?”
I hear Mase laugh from behind me, his little giggle catching the back of my neck, tickling me slightly.
“Well, I have finally taught him how to do his own washing, so he doesn’t need to constantly ask for help and it gives his poor Mum a break”
Declan immediately bursts out laughing again as heat rushes to Mason’s cheeks. Feeling bad for exposing him to the internet I lean up to give a peck on his cheek.
I go on to talk about what we are doing to fill up the spare time we now have, and Mason mentioned the training schedules he gets from Chelsea while hoping to be back out on the pitch soon.
“Mason works so hard, and I don’t think that many people realise that and see how much he sacrifices so while we can I like to make sure that he has a couple of days off. Sometimes is movie nights and sometimes he is just enjoys gaming with he lads”
Mason gives me a quick squeeze of appreciation as Declan’s voice appears again, piggy backing on top of my answer with a story that makes everyone laugh.
“What is isn’t telling you is that when he is gaming, she uses it to get her cuddles in!” Mason jumps in to give Rio more context who looks confused at the quick switch up of conversation.
“Yeah, it will be 2am and she will come find me still half asleep because I’m not in bed yet. She simply walks up to me, sits in my lap, curls herself around me and falls back asleep, so whenever one of the boys screams down the mic I have to be like “bro shhh” and everyone just knows that Y/N is there”
I groan into my hands as Rio laughs along with the others. I suppose this is my payback for exposing Mason before…
“You’re so whipped bro!” Dec smiles, ignoring the fact that he is the exact same when he is with his lover.
Mason just looks down at me, his face glowing with happiness.
“She’s my girl, what can I say”
I should probably apologise for this one. I broke my own heart writing this

“Oh my god, you’re in love” my best friend, Eden gasps as I watch him in the distance.
I turn to her with my tear stained face and scoff slightly.
“Wouldn’t you be?”
I was 15 then, 15 when I watched him pack up his things and climb into his parents car, ready to start his new journey for Chelsea FC. Host parents had been set up and his contact was already signed.
“They are gonna know my name, they are gonna know who I am” he used to say to me. Even when no one else believed in him, he always believed in himself.
He was right, they learnt his name. Mason Mount: The force to be reckoned with.
He became a far cry from the boy who I had let go that night.
———————————————————————
“Y/N please, please come with me; we can figure this out together, I promise” he had begged me. Running every scenario through his head, trying to come up with a solution with a million and one impossible things.
We both had tears running down or faces, our emotions raging and our voices hoarse. I remembered feeling like my heart was slowly breaking and it was agonising, but I couldn’t be the one to hold him back from his lifelong goal. I wouldn’t be. I had closed my eyes and begun my last words to him.
“I have to let you go. Everything in this life is temporary, I guess I was merely one of those things. I am happy to have been but now I’m letting go Mason. I’m letting you go.”
——————————————————————
He promised he would find me again, but I knew I would only distract him. He was destined for great things in this world, and I had to let him be free. So that is exactly what I did.
Over the years I have watched him grow from the shadows. Watched every win and every loss. Celebrated every win and mourned every loss. Seen how each time he picked himself up and kept on going, willing himself to go further.
While Mason was making his name known worldwide, I went down the university route, graduating with a degree in Media at age 21. I remember when the news broke that Mason had found a girlfriend. While I no longer saw him, Declan gave me a heads up before the press got a hold of the news, “given your history” he had said.
Eden, who had followed me to university simply looked over from her bed in our dorm and said “Do you still love him, even now? After all of this time?”
I gave her same smile that I gave her at fifteen.
“Yes”
“How do you know?”
“Because seeing him smile is the only thing I ever want to see, even if it’s not because of me” I had answered.
—————————————————————
A year later I stood inside Stamford Bridge waiting to see if him and his team could bring home the Champions League Trophy. I knew his family would be there, but I hoped I wouldn’t bump into them.
If only I had such luck. It wasn’t that I didn’t want to see them but rather I had no idea how I could face them, not after so long.
But his mother Debbie seemed to have other ideas, knowing that trying to avoid the women who has known me since I was a child was futile, I took a deep breath and took the seat she offered me. We talked about simple things but that changed as soon as her son began his decent onto the pitch. I stood to say goodbye, but she took my hand stopping me in the process. I was left speechless with what she said next.
“He misses you greatly, you know”
I couldn’t meet her eye.
“There is always that one person you’ve had feelings for since the moment you first met them. For my son that was you and I think for you, it is him. Whatever you may think or even believe, you don’t distract him, you empowerhim”
I attempt to still my shaking hands and the sudden chills coursing through my body.
“I erm- I…” I tried to from a sentence, but I felt as if my throat was closing up, crushing any attempt to get my words out.
“I best get back to my seat” I eventually forced out and spun on my heel, walking away without a chance for her to respond.
The entire match, I couldn’t help but replay the words in my head.
“He misses you greatly, you know”
“You empower him”
“Feelings from them since the first time you met”
She couldn’t be right, could she? Did he truly miss me?
I struggled to focus on the match in front of me, but I didn’t miss the goal that put Chelsea in the league or the way the team celebrated on the pitch the minute the final whistle blew.
I sat there in disbelief for a good moment or two as I take in the magical moment.
I watched as he held the trophy up proudly and embraced his family and friends.
He made it.
I wiped my tears and planned to slip out of the stadium quietly, but it seemed that the universe had over plans.
I heard him before I saw him.
“Y/N! Y/N! Wait up, please, tell me that it is you?!”
Hearing my name fall from his lips and the clear tone of desperation in his voice, threatened to shatter my heart all over again. Still my feet were rooted to the ground, refusing to move forward. My body involuntarily turned towards him, making us face to face after all of those years.
I watch as he almost falls to his knees, adrenaline was probably only thing keeping him up right.
“It is you, isn’t it? I’m not dreaming. It has to be, I would recognise those eyes anywhere”
My eyes, those in question had decided that it would be a great time to spring a leak once more, as tears of fear, pain and love fall down my already wet cheeks.
“Long time, no see, Mount” I whisper out, my voice cracking.
My childhood best friend doesn’t answer but simply surges forward and tackles me into a tight hug. I hear his gasps and figure that he has started to cry also.
When he pulls away, I find that he still gripping my hand tightly, afraid that if he let go, I would disappear. I wasn’t complaining.
He cups my face.
“I told you I would find you again” he whispers and, in that moment, the only thing I wanted to do was kiss him.
He looks me straight in the eye.
“Kiss me, please” he begs, as if reading my mind.
My fingers delicately trace his bottom lip. I couldn’t do this, not while I didn’t know the truth.
“Your girlfriend?” I questioned him softly. There had been rumours that there had been a breakup between the pair, but I needed to know. I wasn’t going to be branded a cheater or home wrecker.
“Split up, months ago. Promise”
His sentences where short and snappy, signalling impatience which made me want to giggle slightly, but even so he waited for me to lead.
After that I wasted no time, I bounced slightly on my toes to reach him as our lips finally met. The kiss was slow and gentle but still fuelled with passion like other. This kiss was years in the making and I wasn’t going to waste it.
When we finally come up for air, I hear him mumbling something against my forehead.
“You were never temporary”
I look at him, confusion written across my face.
“The day you left you said that you were simply a temporary thing in my life; But you wasn’t”
He cups my face in his hands again, staring into what felt like my soul.
“You were never temporary. Not to me, not ever.”

Author’s note: As you can see on this chapter’s header, we have a special guest: Lord Mason Mount, the Lord in Blue himself. If you have read that story, there is a little update about his life. And if you haven’t and want to know more, check it out! It is linked on my masterlist Also, as always, thank you for reading!
We spend the whole night on the road. I try to sleep, but I’m cold and too nervous, constantly thinking about what I am going to tell Declan. And about how he will react. Will he forgive me? What if he has already moved on?
Once the sun is out, we stop to stretch our legs, eat something and take care of the horses. My mother and the Rices had thought of everything.
“We are getting closer, my lady” James says after we stop for lunch.
“That noise is the sea, isn’t it?” I ask him. I visited the beach a couple of times as a kid, and I still remember the sound.
“It is. And that over there” he says pointing at something behind me, “it’s a very nasty storm. We should hurry.”
━━━━━━❃━━━━━━
It’s so dark outside, that I can barely see my hands inside the carriage. The wind is making it shake, water is already leaking inside.
“We are almost there, my lady. I can see the lights of the house” James shouts before a very loud thunder silences everything.
━━━━━━❃━━━━━━
When I make it to the Mounts’ house, I’m completely drenched and out of breath, but I still find some strength to knock on the big door. Nothing, no answer. What if they aren’t home? The holidays are around the corner and they may have gone somewhere…
I knock again, this time for longer. Nothing. But when I am about to start kicking it, a butler opens it.
“How may I help you?” he says as he looks at me from head to toe.
“I’m looking for Lord Rice” I say.
“I’m afraid he isn’t in the house today, miss…”
“What about Lord Mount” I cut him. “I need help, please.”
"We don’t give money to beggars or offer them a roof. You should go to the church in town for that” he says with a disgusted look.
“I’m not a beggar, I’m Lord Rice’s friend” I say, starting to get angry. “Please ask for Lord Mount, he’ll know who I am. It’s urgent.”
"I’m sorry miss, but I can’t do anything for you” the butler says. As he is about to close the door, a woman shows up behind him.
“Walter, what is going on? Who is this?” she asks.
“Just a beggar, my lady.”
"I’m not a beggar, you idiot!” I yell at him. “I’m friends with Lord Rice, and I need his help. The life of my carriage rider’s may be in danger, and if you let me stay here in the rain for longer, so will be mine!”
“Let her in, Walter” the lady says.
“What are you two doing at the door?” a male voice says behind them. “I can feel the cold everywhere, and I don’t like it.”
"This woman says she’s friends with Declan and that she needs his help” the lady tells him while he gives me a scrutinizing look.
“Please excuse me if I’m wrong and I’m being impertinent, but you are Lord Mount, aren’t you? Count Mason Mount, though you don’t like it because of the rhyme. And your friends call you Mase” I say.
“That’s me, yes. How do you know all that?” he asks.
“Because I’m Declan’s friend, from his hometown. You are probably tired of hearing him talk about me, especially during the last few weeks.” Or that’s what I hope, that he hasn’t forgotten about me that easily.
"You are the famous little poppy?” he says with a smile.
“I am, yes” I say, letting out a sigh of relief.
“She may be lying, my lord” the butler says. “Anyone could know that.”
"Oh, please, shut up” I spat, too tired of his impertinence, Lord Mount and the woman I suppose is his future wife, trying not to laugh.
“The woman Dec has told me about would have said something like that. But just to be sure, tell me something about him only you and I could know” he says.
“I…” My mind goes completely blank. I’m starting to get cold, everything in my body hurts, and my clothes are soaking wet. My wet clothes. That day at the cottage. “He has kind of a big mole on the left side of his chest, under his nipple more or less” I say, the butler letting out a gasp of outrage. “And he also has a few more on his right thigh. And… ”
“Alright, alright, that’s enough” Lord Mount says, still smiling but definitely feeling a bit uncomfortable. “I believe you, my lady. Please come sit next to the fire and tell us what happened. Walter, bring her a blanket and something warm to drink.”
The man just stays there, his face completely red.
“Walter, didn’t you hear what Lord Mount said?” the lady says to him.
“Yes, my lady” he says as he leaves, murmuring in disapproval.
━━━━━━❃━━━━━━
“The horses were already scared and nervous because of the thunder and lightning, and when they had to cross the stream that the rain had made on the road, they went completely crazy” I explain to Lord Mount and his fiancée. “James tried to keep them still, but it was impossible. One of them broke free, and the other manage to knock down the carriage, making James fall and trapping him under it. I was able to get out, but I couldn’t help him. From where we were we could see the lights of the house, so he asked me to run here and ask for help.”
“Do you know if he was badly injured?” Lord Mount asks.
“Only his legs were under the carriage, so he may have some broken bones” I say.
“I’ll call for some of the men and go look for him” he says. “My love, stay here with the lady. Make sure she eats something, and find her some new clothes.”
“I’ll take care of everything while you go and help that man, don’t worry. But promise be you will be careful” she says.
“I will” he says, giving her a quick kiss on the lips.

I fall sleep the moment I make it to the bed. When I wake up, the sun is completely out, illuminating the whole room. Once my eyes have adjusted to the light, I see a little note on the bedside table on my left.
James is alright. A doctor already checked him and he has a broken leg, but he will recover. Rest as much as you need.
MM
I let out a sigh of relief and try to go back to sleep, but my stomach says otherwise. I am sohungry.
Someone has left some new clothes for me and also everything I may need to refresh myself, so I decide to start getting ready. Once I’m done, I leave my room, but I don’t know where to go. Last night it was so dark, and I was so tired, that I didn’t pay attention.
“My lady, may I help you?” a young maid asks me.
“Would you mind taking me to the dinning room? I would like to have some breakfast” I say.
“Oh, my lady, it’s past lunch time. You spent most part of the day sleeping” she says apologetically “But don’t worry, Lord Mount told us to save some food for you for when you woke up. If you follow me…” I just nod and go with her.
After eating, I ask another maid to take me to James’ room. I want to make sure he is alright.
“You didn’t need to come, my lady” he says as I sit next to his bed. “There are more important matters you should be taking care of right now, like talking to the little Lord.”
“I haven’t seen him yet” I say. “He doesn’t seem to be in the house.”
James, probably noticing the sadness in my voice, holds my hand, giving it a little sqeeze. “He’ll come back, my lady. If he’s left, I’m sure Lord Mount will ask him to come back.”
I give him a shy smile, hoping he is right.
━━━━━━❃━━━━━━
“I’m sorry we’ve left you alone all day, my lady” Lord Mount says as we sit to have dinner. “But last night’s storm did some damage in town, and we’ve been busy helping people and making sure everyone was alright.”
“That’s very kind of you, my lord” I say.
“If I were you, my lady, I wouldn’t start flattering him. He becomes insufferable” his fiancée says with a smile before sipping her wine.
“Don’t listen to her” he replies with another smile, a dimple showing on his cheek.
I can’t help but blush and look down at my hands. I feel like an intruder, like I’m being part of something private.
“Dinner is ready” Walter says, bringing us all back to reality.
Once we are done eating, we sat next to the fire, the sounds of the waves in the background.
“You probably w<are ondering where Dec is” Lord Mount says.
“If he isn’t here, I guess he’s gone to visit his brothers and spend the holidays with them” I say with a shrug.
“He’s decided to spend the holidays with us, my lady. But he isn’t here because he has joined my father on a business trip to court” he says. “They’ll be back in a couple of days. He just needed to keep his mind busy and stop thinking about you for a little while.”
I only manage to nod, tears coming to my eyes as I think about him, heartbroken and looking for comfort with his best friend.
“He’ll forgive you, my lady” Lord Mount says. “He is an idiot, you probably know it better than anyone. But he isn’t that level of an idiot.”
I can’t help but laugh at that, which for some reason also makes me cry.
“He’s my idiot” I say between sobs.
“Just like this one is mine. Lucky us, uh?” the future Lady Mount says as she hugs me. Again, I find myself laughing and crying at the same time.
━━━━━━❃━━━━━━
It’s been three days since I arrived at the Mount’s house. And Declan hasn’t arrived yet.
While waiting, they’ve been showing me the area, taking me to visit the town nearby and on walks to the beach. Despite the cold, I love our little walks.
“I still remember the first time I came here” Lord Mount’s fiancée tells me one day. “Mason asked me to come because I had never seen the sea before, and he tried to convince me by saying that he was the best tour guide. He probably thought he was being super romantic and cheeky, when in fact he was just being ridiculous. But he made me laugh, and that was one of the reasons I said yes.”
“Declan also says stupid things like that. Stupid to the point of being annoying and wanting to punch him on that stupidly gorgeous face he has. So I guess that’s why they are so close. Two stupid boys. Our idiots” I say with a shrug.
“Our idiots” she replies as we both start laughing.
━━━━━━❃━━━━━━
It’s been a week. Still no sign of Declan.
Luckily, Lord Mount’s sisters and their children are back in the house, and they’ve kept me busy. One of their favorite things is playing blind man’s bluff in the big ball room, going completely crazy as I chase after them while making weird voices. This time, I’m a cat.
“Where are you, little kitties? Meow” I say.
“Not here, meow meow” one of them says next to me.
“I think I’m going to have to call my older brother the lion to catch you. Rawr!!” I yell. I can hear them running and laughing, though I can feel someone behind me. “I can smell someone… Right here!” I say as I turn and jump, trying to catch the kid who was behind me. But I find myself clashing against someone tall. Someone too tall for a kid. As I pull down the scarf in my eyes, I find myself looking into those eyes I’ve been dreaming with for months. The eyes that have followed me everywhere since the day a huge dog tried to attack me by the river. Declan’s eyes.
“Hello, little poppy.”
