Well...wasn't this a turnout for the books - Ray Manchester grew some and confessed to the hottest girl Brad had ever seen—oh, and what's this? A ring? Goddamn, he'd missed a lot, and they were grosser together than he could have ever imagined.
"You can't just come in the Man Cave whenever you want, Brad," (y/n) told him harshly as she relaxed into her doofus's embrace, content when he - possessively - kissed her neck and placed his chin on her crown to show the undoubtedly staring intruder that she was off-limits.
It was strange to think that the last time they saw him, neither knew that their feelings were reciprocated and still assumed they'd be "just friends" forever—even stranger when they thought about how Brad still tried to take (y/n) away from Ray, despite knowing he was head over heels in love with her. Well, he'd always had some death wish.

He took great delight in watching Captain Man as he seethed in anger at the same-old name he'd always used around (y/n), no matter how much she hated it. He was so angry that he didn't notice Piper emerge from behind the secret door; who'd been working behind the scenes all morning, only to take and break and see her friends/frenemies talking to no one.
"Who's Brad, and why's he flirting with (y/n)?" She asked as she strolled in, a much-needed mug of coffee in her hand. She'd heard someone talking about her friend, who had a repulsed grimace on her face, and her moody boss was moodier than ever, glaring at the walls and floor since someone had flirted with his girl - she didn't blame him for that.
"Piper? What are you doing here?" Henry asked confusedly as everyone gasped from the second jump scare of the day. As if Ray didn't have enough problems, she had arrived, and right when he needed to focus on wrapping his sweet girl in cotton wool, adamant that Brad would hurt, upset or get her over his dead body—and even then, he'd haunt the sh*t out of him.
"I just made a fresh pot of coffee. Helps me get through the workday," she replied with a soft smile, causing Ray to sign and rest his knuckles on the table.
"You do not w—"
"Who's Brad? Why is he flirting with (y/n)?" She asked again, interrupting the man's punched-out utterance with a confused expression. The woman shuddered at the reminder, calming down only when her grumbling doofus draped his body over hers again, mumbling soothing words in her ear about how he wouldn't let anything happen to her.
"Invisible Brad. Some rando, who got turned invisible because of Ray, and he's this huge, weird, creepy crush on (y/n)," Henry explained, ignoring the eyes burning holes in the back of his head because that was the truth - depending on who he asked.
"It wasn't my fault! And she's my sweet girl. I'm in love with her, and I'll punch his stupid, invisible face if he comes near her!" Ray retaliated, squeezing his fiancée tightly as the thought of losing her in any way made him want to keep her safe, secure and with him. Brad was an asshole, and (y/n) was way too good for him—too good for anyone—but Ray was selfish and too in love with her to let her go after grabbing onto the idea she wanted to marry him. No one else. Just him.
"Was too! And I think we should let (y/n) decide! After all, I wouldn't keep her waiting over ten years for a date..."
"Shut up, Brad! Like I'd ever choose you when I have my doofus!" (y/n) growled as it was her turn to wrap her arms around her lover, clinging to Ray as his face darkened.
It was a bit of an open secret that he hated how long he'd waited to confess, how he'd dated every other thing with a pulse to spare himself from heartache, and how he'd left his precious girl lonely and hurting from his cowardice. But she wouldn't let him think like that; yes, it had been a long road, but they made it in the end, and they were happy. Irrefutably happy, and no one, certainly not Invisible Brad, was going to ruin that.
