*Author's note*

Hey guys well this came from my frequent requester that I am always happy to oblige and this time we've gone with a Joe Mazzello fic (since we agree that Joey needs more loving) so I hope you all enjoy this update I have for you. Now I did write a smut version of this story towards the end but for now I want to give you guys a clean version and if I get enough votes or comments about wanting a smut version, I'll probably post that up eventually. So in this fic you are a very beautiful Victoria Secret's model and I also want to say there is a surprise guest in this story (I'll give you a hint, it's not any BoRhap cast members but it is a Marvel actor. I won't tell you who, but you will find out soon enough)

Another thing is that Insecurities are mention but not on the female side, Men can have insecurities too so if your man is feeling insecure, ladies LISTEN TO THEM!! BE THERE FOR THEM!! MAKE THEM FEEL LOVED! Because It's okay for men to be vulnerable and have insecurities, no one has to stay strong when they are hurting.

That's why I'll always choose you

Joe Mazzello x model! reader

_______________________________________________________________________

I don't know how I ever got lucky to find him. I also can't believe we've been together for 2 years now. It all began back in the gala back in 2016, I was one of the 10 models chosen to walk in the gala Fashion show. My lovely and amazing assistant and dresser Freddie helped me get all dolled up in my fierce "Raven queen" getup.

It was a chain-mail like black dress that reached all the way to the floor with some golden embedded buckles along the front to secure the dress as well as along the breast part up to the shoulders. Along with that I also wore a golden feather-like cape that was gold on the outside but on the inside it was black, the collar come all the way up to the bottom of my hairline. To sell it, Freddie had specially designed just for me, special claw-like finger rings that hung at the tip of my fingers to act like real-live claws.

As he placed the crown on top of my head after putting my long (h/c) into a tight bun.

"Mirror, mirror on the wall, whose the fabulous darling of them all? You are." I smiled and said.

"Thank you Freddie."

"Also you can unclasp the bottom of the dress to reveal a shorter skirt in case you get the dancing bug, Lord knows I know how much you love to dance."

"Freddie, what would I do without you?"

"You'd be lost and spoiled like all those other hussies out there."

"Hey, you know girls like Mimi and Yaz have good qualities."

"Yeah, yeah, yeah but none of them compare to my darling (y/n). Now you go out there and show them whose the true Queen of the Gala." He then handed me my raven mask and I headed on for the Gala.

With my makeup done all golden glittered to match my eyes but giving me that 'menacing' quality, I was a hit at the Gala along with Gaga, J-Lo and Katy Perry.

As the night went on and Beyoncé's "Crazy in Love" came on, like Freddie said I couldn't help but get bitten by the dance bug. I removed my cape and hung it delicately over my chair before getting up. But as I did, due to the amount of people in the room, I accidentally knocked into someone.

"Oh shit I am soo sorry!"

"It's—it's okay." It was then I looked up to see the most beautiful pair of brown eyes I had ever seen.

"Are—are you sure?"

"Yes your majesty. But it would seem the two of us had the same idea, shall my rudeness for bumping into her royal majesty be to accompany her for a dance?" he said with a over-dramatic bow. I couldn't help but laugh as I said in a posh tone.

"Of course you may my kind sir. But may I ask the name of my royal dance partner?" He stood right back up and said as he held out his hand for me.

"Joe. Joe Mazzello."

"(Y/n). (Y/n) (l/n)." I introduced myself as I placed my hand in his and he graciously lifted my hand to his lips and kissed the back of my palm. And the rest was history from there.

All throughout that night, we danced (and Joe had some pretty sick moves on him) and talked about our careers. I had learned that he actually played little Tim in my all-time favorite movie "Jurassic Park", and though I wouldn't admit it to him at the time, he was actually my first little girl crush since we're both the same age, I'm just born a month after him.

And so we fast forward to 2 years later and our relationship has gone stronger than ever. I was there to see Joe direct his first ever movie "Undrafted" which was the story about his brother getting the card for the major leagues but not getting the final draft he needed to play.

Joe's family welcomed me with open arms and his sister went gaga over me because she has been a fan of mine for quite awhile in my works of fashion with Victoria Secrets. She says she watches the fashion show every year just to see me shine on the runway.

Since my parents weren't so—keen on my idea of a career I was practically disowned by the time I was 17 and had to struggle to make a living, but Joe's parents they treated me like I was their own and I couldn't ask for better parents. But losing Joe Mazzello II was hard on all of us, especially on my Joey who was away in London at the time filming a little movie called "Bohemian Rhapsody".

But it was a good thing that while he was there, his costars were there for him to help him with his grief till he came home so that I could now help him, and he could help me.

Which no brings us to today. After Joe's big success with the film, he decided to take a little break for a bit just so that we could spend some time together. While that was going on, I was prepping for the next Victoria Secret 2019 fashion show and I was called to be the leading star of this year's fashion show. As I was meeting with Freddie to go over some of the clothes that I was to be modeling, then I was currently being interviewed by some of the press.

"So (y/n) how does it feel to be the starring model for this year's Victoria Secret's fashion show?" she asked me.

"Oh it's a huge honor. Never did I think I would be the leading star model for this year's fashion show. We've had a lot of newcomers in the last 2-3 years and they are all talented young ladies and I was sure they'd get the chance to spotlight this year's show."

"Now I'm told of your growing relationship with Bohemian Rhapsody star, Joe Mazzello. How does he feel about your role in the fashion show?"

"He's told me every day that he's proud of me. And I can't ask for anyone better than him."

"Well what about that Ben Hardy? Or the Brian lookalike what's his name Gregory?"

"Gwilym." I answered.

"That's it, sorry I can't pronounce foreign names. I've seen the pictures of you with them, and you look so great with them."

"What are you trying to get at Kristen?" I demanded.

"I'm merely saying that maybe you'd do better with someone more—your type. I mean you're young, beautiful, and sexy. You've been named the sexiest model for 4 years throughout your career and I......"

"You know what; if all you're going to talk about is how my relationships should be then this interview is a huge waste of my time. Unless you want to talk about the show or try to get some spoilers of what I will be modeling, then please end this interview now and get the hell out of my sight."

"(Y/n) please I'm just trying to help....."

"No you're being what every other woman in this industry does. Being a controlling, manipulating bitch. Good day Kristen." With that I stood up and walked out of the room.

In my dressing room I sighed heavily as I buried my face into my hands.

"(Y/n) darling?"

"I fucked up didn't I Fred?"

"No, no you were in the right to tell Kristen off like that. She's always been such a bitch. I for one think you and Joe are the perfect couple. You both are too cute together. He brings out the best in you."

"Don't I know that. I just—hope he knows that."

"I'm sure he does." He assured me as he hugged me. I smiled and buried my face into his chest and he patted my shoulder.

As the weeks went on, I was practicing my walk on the runway wearing my ensemble of lingerie corset and matching lace stockings and underwear. After my walk I heard a male voice say.

"Hey (y/n)." I looked up quickly but then groaned as I saw one of the male models Jason coming right up to me in just his black robe.

"What is it Jason?"

"Me and the guys are planning to go out later tonight at this great ballroom dance club, why don't you join us?"

"Sorry, I'm afraid I've already made plans. Now if you will kindly get out of my way." I walked around him but he put his arm around my waist and said.

"With who? That actor boyfriend of yours? Please you are sooo out of his league." I removed his arm almost immediately from my shoulder and punched him across the face. And not to brag but thanks to those self-defense classes I took shortly after starting my modeling career, that punch could almost be heard throughout the auditorium.

"You don't know a thing about Joe. So don't act like you do. Looks aren't everything Jason. But apparently you and everyone else are too pigheaded and have your heads shoved up so far against your asses you can't see that." I began to walk away before I turned back and said, "Oh and Jason; if you or anyone else try to brag to the press about this, then I'll gossip about what you and Tory did in the Paris fashion show on Instagram, and I'll make sure to tag your girlfriend Maggie in on it."

"Bitch you wouldn't....."

"Wanna bet?" I threatened as I held out my phone with a picture of him and Tory making out together. He glared at me and I smugly hummed at him before walking away.

Outside I saw Joe leaning up against his car waiting for me with a bagged lunch.

"Hey sweetie."

"Hey babe. Been waiting for yah." He said as I walked up to him and we pecked each other's lips. "I brought you your favorite." He said holding up my favorite Chipotle meal.

"Awww you didn't have to do that."

"I know, but I wanted to." I smiled and kissed his cheek and that's when he opened the door and held his hand out for me.

"Thank you kind sir."

"Not at all madam." As soon as I was in, he shut the door and came back around to the driver's seat and started the car back up and drove us home.

That night it was our usual Friday night in; Video game, Marvel movie and pizza night. Since Joe claimed to have only seen like 3 of the 28 marvel films, I decided that it was time he caught up. And tonight's movie was Captain America; the First Avenger.

"And you're not joking, you actually know Sebastian Stan."

"Yes. He and I grew up together and went to the same high school. In fact he's the one who told me that I should follow my dreams as a model. We chat on Instagram whenever we can. But of course Mr. Bigshot's so busy lately that he thinks he's too good for me. But of course I still love him. He's like the brother I never had."

"So did you ask for any spoilers for Infinity war and Endgame?"

"More than you know, of course he always replied with the devil emoji as well as the laughing with tears emoji. Damn Romanian secret keeper."

"I think that might be the Marvel snipers he always claims to be on him all the time in case he does reveal anything."

"And how exactly do you know about that?" His mouth opened as he uhhed about it and I said. "You got him involved with something you're doing aren't you?"

"What? Me? No, no way." I raised my brow at him skeptically but then he tried to get my mind off it by tackling me against the couch and started tickling my sides.

"Hey no! No tihihickle fights during movie nights!" I said between my laughs.

"So long as you don't ask any more questions regarding Bucky Barnes, only then will I stop, deal?"

"Okay! Okay just stohahahp!" he did but remained hovering over me.

"I love you so much, you know that right?"

"Of course I do." I said as I cupped the side of his face and stroked his cheek with my thumb. He smiled and leaned down and buried his face into my neck. I felt him kiss my neck and bury himself into my as I felt his strong arms wrap around my waist. I stroked through his ginger-brown hair making sure to gently scratch through his scalp. His favorite.

He hummed and hugged me tighter before laying his head on my chest. I continued to stroke through his hair.

"You've been a little more affectionate today."

"Am I not allowed to be affectionate towards you?" he asked.

"I'm not complaining I'm—just saying you're a bit more affectionate than usual. Is something wrong Joey?"

"No. No nothing's wrong." I looked at him skeptically again but just let it aside. But I knew somewhere deep down there was something bothering him.

As the months passed, and the fashion show soon arrived. I along with the 20 other models chosen to walk in this year's runway presented the new Victoria Secret's upcoming holiday lingerie. I was presenting the "Santa baby" line with red stockings, a red corset with the white feathers along the top rims. Photos were being snapped everywhere as I walked the runway like I owned it.

"And our famed model of the year (y/n) (l/n) presents the new "Santa baby" ensemble. The red lacy compliments the white stitched feathering fabric and with matching stockings, it'll make every day feel like Christmas." I saw Joe sitting down in front and he smiled up at me. I sent him a wink before turning back to get ready for my next debut.

As usual for these shows they run on each girl presenting the lingerie designed by the company and now I was showing off the summer attire with crop top, the famed Victoria Secret booty shorts and sandals. As a prop I had a beachball as well as the famed pink spotted doggy.

I sent the beachball towards Joe who caught it and I couldn't help but giggle at him as I walked off the stage. Hours of this went on till finally the show was over. I met up with Joe after the show and we embraced each other.

"How was I?" I asked anxiously.

"A superstar like always. How is it you can make booty shorts look so damn sexy on you?"

"Oh stop it."

"I must say even I was impressed." Oh my god. We turned around and there stood Sebastian Stan, the Romanian devil himself. I let out what sounded like a mix between a gasp and a laugh as I ran up to him.

"Ahhh Sebby!" we hugged each other and he spun me around. He set me down and I asked him. "What are you doing here, you never come to these shows before?"

"Well I got done filming in Greece for a new project and since my oldest friend was starring in this fashion show, I figured why not."

"God Seb it has been too long! We need to hang out more!"

"I know this year has been insane for me. With Endgame finally premiering and the announcement of Falcon and the Winter Solider for the Disney+ thing."

"You can sure as hell believe that Joey and I will be watching that. We're just about to finally catch him up on all the movies. We've just got Infinity war, Captain Marvel and then Endgame."

"You gonna break out the tissues?"

"Don't you know it. How dare you break my heart like that! I still can't forgive you for that!" I said as I hit him in the shoulder which made him cry out in pain as he rubbed his arm.

"Damn you still got a hell of an arm."

"Well I'm supposed to aren't I? Can't have muggers out there thinking I'm just a pretty face." I said in a teasing manner and he just shook his head at me before playfully shoving my head downwards. I made a strange cry that almost kinda mimicked an angry penguin and he just ruffled my hair again. "Oh god where are my manners I don't know if you two met. Seb this is Joe Mazzello, the love of my life. Joey this is Sebastian."

The two of them shook hands with each other and that's when Seb said.

"Now this may seem a little bit strange but were you in a film called Jurassic Park?"

"Yeah, yeah I played Tim Murphy."

"Holy shit no wonder why you look so familiar. All this time when I see pics of you two on her Instagram I keep jumping back to that movie."

"Yeah that kinda put me on the spotlight in my career."

"And now you played the bass player for Queen in Bohemian Rhapsody."

"Ohh yeah I've been wanting to watch that movie but I could never find the time to go see it. Maybe I'll rent it off of Redbox or something."

"No, no, no. Sleepover our place I insist!" I interjected.

"Oh no, no I couldn't impose."

"Nonsense Seb, it's fine by us. Right Joey?"

"Yeah. Besides any friend of (y/n)'s and Chace is a friend of mine. He's talked about you while we were working on Undrafted."

"Oh yeah he did mention he was making a baseball movie a few years back when we were hanging out after working out with Don, Ton and the others." As my two boys continued to talk with each other, I couldn't help the smile that spread across my face.

About a week passed, I woke up and stretched myself out trying to wake myself up. But as I looked around I didn't see Joe in the kitchen nor in the living room, which was strange because I didn't feel him in our bed when I first woke up so I had assumed that he would be here.

"Joe? Joey you in here?" all I heard was silence. It was then I heard my phone ring. I walked over to the counter where I had left it charging and saw Freddie's picture pop up the screen. I slid to answer it and I said. "Fred what's up?"

'(Y/n) darling, please tell me it's not true'.

"What?"

'Oh thank god'. He sighed with relief.

"Freddie what are you talking about?"

'Tell me dear, when's the last time you went online and googled either yourself or Sebby dear?'

"You know I try to stay away from all that."

'Well I'm afraid you're gonna want to have a look. I'm sending you the link now to your email'. I quickly raced over to my computer and turned it on. I checked my email and low and behold I saw the email from Fred. I clicked the link and in big bold letters along with a blown up picture of me and Seb with Joe hidden in the background it read.

MARVEL'S WINTER SOLDIER HOOKS UP WITH VICTORIA SECRET MODEL.

Marvel and I, Tonya star Sebastian Stan has been seen walking alongside Victoria Secret Model (y/n) (l/n). With self-proclaimed 'boyfriend' Joe Mazzello pushed behind the scenes. It would seem to me she's finally come to realize that she's much better hanging off the Winter Soldier than someone like Joe Mazzello.

"WHAT THE FUCK!!!!" I screamed. "This is bullshit! Oh god Joe....."

'What is it darling?'

"Freddie....Joe's not in the apartment. You—you don't think he saw—"

'I'm sure he probably did. This story's all over Twitter and Instagram. The press is eating this story like it's the biggest buffet to ever hit their tabloids.'

"Oh my god this—this is ridiculous! I love Joe he—he knows that."

'Well.....'

"Freddie, please tell me you don't suddenly agree with—"

'Are you fucking kidding me darling of course I don't! Never. Associate me with those motherfuckers! But—oh I promised I wouldn't say this.'

"Wouldn't say what? Fred I swear to god you better tell me what you know or I'll fire you!" I heard him sigh and he said.

'If you find him, I highly require that you talk to him. He's....been feeling a bit out of sorts lately'.

"Okay. I will. I just hope he doesn't do anything drastic."

'Let me know when you do. And I'll see if I can't try to get in contact with him.'

"Thank you Fred."

'Anytime darling.' And with that we both hung up. I then rushed back to the bedroom and got on the first pair of clothes I could find and raced out of the house to try and find Joe.

While running frantically throughout all of New York City calling out Joe's name. I've texted him, called him, and shouted for him. Finally I arrived at Central park and sitting on a bench near the lake, I saw someone who looked like Joe from behind. So I approached him cautiously just in case it wasn't but when I came around and saw the profile I knew right away it was my Joey.

"Joe?" he turned around to look at me before turning back to face the lake.

"Why did you come?" he asked almost in a snappy sort of tone.

"Wha.....Joe are you serious right now? I wake up to find out that you were gone and I've literally been running around the entire city for 3 hours looking for you and that's all you've got to say to me!? Do you have any idea how worried I was?"

"You were just wasting your time. That's all you've been doing. Why waste it all on me?"

"Because I love you....."

"But why me!? Clearly the whole world thinks your better than me so why bother even trying!" I could hear the heartbreak in his voice and it just broke my heart. I sat down beside him and said.

"Joe, what's going on? Truly. And please don't say it's nothing like you have been." I turned his head to look at me and he sighed heartbrokenly and said.

"Why did you choose me? I mean you're a model, the sexiest model in all the agency. And I'm just—me." I stroked his cheek and said.

"First let's get you home, cause I don't know how long you've been out here for."

"Since 6:30am."

"Right, I'm gonna cook you a nice warm breakfast filled with all your favorites, including cheese on toast."

"You do know that's John Deacon's favorite snack right."

"I don't care, I saw you eat it and love it so don't deny it. Now come on, take my hand and come home with me." I sat up and held my hand out for him. There was still hesitation in his eyes but as I looked down at him assuringly, he finally took my hand.

Back home after alerting everyone that I found him, I set down his favorite breakfast and watched him eat. Once he was done, I guided him to the bedroom and sat him down before sitting in front of him.

"Joe. Everything you just said back at the park, is nothing but a bunch of bullshit. I don't care what anyone else thinks about our relationship, cause it's none of their business."

"Then why do I have to keep hearing the press talk about how you can do so much better than me? Or dealing with guys who constantly flirt with you even when they know you have a boyfriend."

"Because they are arrogant assholes who clearly don't get the message. But Joey, my little baby Joey, please know that no matter how hot a guy that comes to flirt with me is, or whether the press tries to make up lies by using me and a dear old friend of mine. I am always, always, always gonna pick you. You know why?"

"Why?" I crawled up to him and cuddled close to him, burying my face into his neck as I said.

"Because you always make me laugh. This business I'm in—it takes a lot out of me. Do you remember the fashion show I had to do in Rio? And the agency told me I had to lose 20 more pounds."

"Yeah, I hated them for that. You nearly passed out by the time the show started. You were depressed for weeks, even resorted to bulimia."

"Yes. And who was there to help pull me out of that rough spot? To show me that I was still beautiful and didn't need to listen to those arrogant stickups? You." I kissed his cheek. "You also understand my geeky side, you see me as a person, a person who has flaws and can be a nerd at the same time. Other guys all they see is my body, they don't want to know me." I kissed his jaw line.

Slowly my kisses went down his neck as I searched for the spot I knew that made him weak at the knees. I heard him take a sharp breath and I couldn't help but smirk softly.

"You've always been there for me Joey-boy. Now it's my turn to be there for you." I leaned forward and kissed the center of his head, then kissed the tip of his nose before giving it an Eskimo kiss. I kissed both cheeks and leaned my lips towards his just leaving a hair's space but then I teased him by kissing his temple. He whined and tried to chase after my lips with his, I couldn't help but giggle as I teased him a bit but I gave in and gave him what he wanted.

I felt his arms wrap around my waist pulling me closer as the kiss deepened. I asked for entrance into his mouth and he granted it to me and soon our tongues met in a passionate dance. Soon the need for air got in the way and I separated from him but kept our foreheads touching as we both softly panted, our breaths mixing together with each other's.

"God you are so beautiful." He breathed out.

"And so are you Joseph Francis Mazzello III. Your eyes, your hair, that adorably pointed nose, that smile that is just to die for. I love it all, Just as much as I love you, maybe even a bit more." I cuddled close to him and felt his arms wrap around me.  I moaned softly and smiled as I said. "Now this is what it's all about."

"What exactly?" he asked.

"Your arms. That's another thing I find attractive about you."

"Really?"

"Yeah, have you seen these guns? Abs are soo overrated. I love a man with big strong arms, not only to feel and touch, but also give me warm bear hugs. And Joey, you give the best ones that not even Seb can give me."

"So.....does that mean I can brag to Ben that his hot body doesn't fly with you?" I laughed and buried my face into his shoulder.

"Whatever floats your boat Joey." He smiled and pecked my lips.  I felt his thumbs rub my back and I told him "Please never doubt yourself again Joe. The day we met 2 years ago was the best day of my life. I thought I would never find somebody to love because all the guys saw me for one thing. But you--you've brought out the best in me. And been there for me more than any guy in my life has."

"Except for Freddie." he mentioned.

"Yeah well Freddie's like my fairy godmother he has to be there for me. Plus he's almost 15 years my senior. Anyways back to you." I bopped his nose which made him smile. "I never, ever, ever want to hear you say to me that I would be better without you, because I can't. It broke my heart when you told me that. So please don't put me through that again."

"Okay, I promise. I'm sorry. It's just I--seeing all those articles and seeing some of your fans say that you would be better off without me, or that we didn't fit together it hurt me."

"Then those aren't my real fans. My real fans comment saying things like 'life goals' or 'marriage material' some girls even say, "I wish I had a man like that adorable boy"."

I leaned forward and kissed him again before getting off his lap and cuddled up against his side.  He lay down on the bed continuing to hold me in his arms.

"Do you think we can have a special movie marathon?"

"I think we can arrange that, what shall it be?"

"I want all the movies that my handsome boy's in. Starting with his recent success."

"Well, whatever my girl wants, she gets. I mean it's not like I have a choice." I scoffed at him and punched his shoulder which only made him laugh.

"You're so mean."

"But you love me." he said as he got up and put Bohemian Rhapsody into the Blu-Ray player.

"Yeah that I do." He cuddled back into me and as the movie began playing and his first appearance came on. "Do you think you'll ever grow your hair that long?"

"Probably not, why?"

"That's sad cause you look pretty hot with long hair. I mean that was always my favorite John Deacon hairstyle."

"Okay, then maybe I might rethink that. So long as you never ask me to get a perm."

"Oh c'mon you looked cute with a perm." I whined.

"That was until I knew it stood for permanent. So don't you dare ask me to get a perm. If you do, I'll tickle you to death."

"You better not you know how ticklish I am." I warned him.

"Exactly why I promised you I'd do it." Just to erk me, he gave my right side a quick tickle and I squeaked and curled up against him.  He now hovered over me and he said using his John Deacon accent, "I love you (y/n), you're my best friend."

"And I love you Joseph Mazzello. And you know that accent makes me all flustered." He softly chuckled and said as he lowered himself downward still using the accent.

"Exactly why I'm using it." he kissed me and we softly made out for a minute before ceasing and returning back to our movie marathon, celebrating the man that I chose and will always choose in the end.
