Summary
"We're two idiots who every couple of months are secretly naked together because it's easier and more fun than trying to convince anyone else to be naked with us," Scarlet said.
"Aah, so the secret was part of the appeal, was it?" Greg asked with a knowing smirk.
"About as much as the thrill of getting caught was part of the appeal for you."
"But we've been caught, and the secret is out. Where does that leave us?"
She took a mouthful of scotch from her glass. "Leaves us in your flat with full bellies and nowhere to be for the rest of the afternoon, and not nearly naked enough."Series

Summary
As she hit 'send' Scarlet glanced up to see Greg had appeared, clinking his beer bottle against James's as a greeting. "What'd you two do to Scarlet, she's a mess?"
She shoved her phone into her pocket and raised her eyebrows at him as she pushed her hair out of her face. "Cheeky texts, we think," Mark said, "from a secret boy toy, perhaps."
"Ooh, boy toy," Greg perked. "Any leads on who it might be?"
"She's told us she's got a crush on you, so it could be literally anybody," James said.
"Standards aren't high, then," Greg nodded.Series

Summary
The year is 2019, and life has been quite dull for you since working in various jobs that you hate after graduating from university back in 2011. You used to do stand up comedy at uni and tried a few times after that, but you’ve been putting off pursuing it properly due to lack of confidence and motivation. Your best mates decide to encourage you to try a comedy mic night for the first time in years and there you incidentally run into an old mate of yours, comedian Rhys James. That’s when your life gets turned around as you dive into the world of the comedy circuit and become close with other famous British comedians. In the midst of it all, you end up meeting a particularly distinctive red headed fellow who could become the very thing that brings meaning to your life again.
A/N: Had to update the timeline of this story for it to make sense to when Rhys James went to uni because otherwise the reader would not have met him there! Whoopsie.
