You Tricked Me - Julie Ertz Imagine

A/N: This is somewhat of a prequel to Boxes!

(Y/N) POV:

“We have an early morning tomorrow, so I need you to not stay out all night.” JJ said as I nodded my head.

“I know JJ” I said for the umpteenth time as my girlfriend gave me a look. I was going out for the night with Ash and Pinoe. JJ was supposed to tag along but she had work that she needed to get done so she opted out of attending. I was bummed out because I wanted to be able to spend the night having fun with my girlfriend, but I also understand how important her work is to her.

Tomorrow morning, we are supposed to go have breakfast with some members of her family that are flying in to visit. I’ve met them before, but I always get a little nervous. I don’t want them to ever turn around and change their mind about us being together.

“(Y/N), I am serious. I don’t want you to be super hungover tomorrow.” She said with a serious look as I nodded my head.

“Babe…don’t worry. I know. I’ll be fine.” I said as she nodded her head. She gave me a smile as I leaned in to give her a kiss.

I said goodbye to her before exiting the house and going to meet up with Ash and Pinoe. I got to the bar we were hanging at and smiled when I spotted my teammates.

“Hey!” Pinoe said as I approached them. She looked behind me and furrowed her eyebrows upon noticing that JJ wasn’t with me. “Where’s JJ?”

“She had some work to do. She said that she is sorry, and she will make it up to you.” I said as they all frowned but nodded their heads anyway. A round of drinks were ordered as I tried to keep myself at a slow pace. I know that I have an early morning so being wild tonight is not an option.

That was the plan at least. As the night went on, I ended up in two drink-offs with my teammates and was putting more alcohol in my body than I should’ve. The quick consumption combined with the lack of food wasn’t doing me any favors. I wasn’t a lightweight, but it was definitely hitting me harder than usual.

Hours of drinking passed before I headed out. I caught an uber home as I agreed to let Ash and Pinoe crash with me. The walk to my apartment from the car we got out of seemed to last an eternity.

“shhhh” I said as they both fought back laughs. I smiled as I pointed at them to stop. “JJ is asleep. I don’t want to wake her.”

I fiddled with the lock for a few minutes before finally getting the door to open. The door crashed into the wall with a loud bang as we stumbled our way into the apartment. I turned on the light as I made my way towards my fridge. I was dying for some food. I opened the door and looked through as I found some leftover pizza. I grabbed the box and sat it on the counter. Ash and Pinoe both came over wanting some as we laughed at nothing.

I hadn’t necessarily realized how loud we were being until I glanced towards the hallway. I jumped slightly when I saw JJ looking at us with a confused expression.

“What time is it?” she asked with an unreadable look on her face. I glanced behind me at the clock on the stove. 4:28 am. Welp.

“Time for you to get a watch.” Pinoe said with a mouth full of pizza causing me to grin.

“Haha. Time for you guys to go to sleep.” JJ said as I took another bite of the pizza in my hand. “You can crash in the extra room. I’m serious.” She came over grabbing my arm and pulling me towards the bedroom.

“You’re in trouble.” Ash said as I paused stopping and pulling my arm away from JJ. I stared at her skeptically as she gave Ash a glare before looking at me. She smiled softly taking a step closer to me.

“I’m not mad. Come on. I just want to put you to bed.” She said as I felt myself soften. I took a step closer to her as she intertwined our fingers. She pulled me towards our room again as I waved to Ash and Pinoe who were both snickering.

Once we were in the bedroom, I went over fell into the bed as JJ closed the door. I glanced up at her and frowned when she gave me a glare. She looked pissed off as she crossed her arms and stared at me.

“What?” I asked with a confused expression as she then tilted her head.

“You said you wouldn’t stay out late.” She said and I could hear the fury in her voice which caused my frown to deepen.

“You tricked me.” I pouted as she rolled her eyes.

“Did you really think I wasn’t going to be upset with you?” she asked crossing the room and grabbing clothes out of the drawer.

“You said you weren’t mad.” I complained as she came over to me. She started trying to undress me as I resisted a little. “No. You’re mad at me.”

“I’m tired. I asked you not to do this. We have to be up in less than four hours to go meet my family and you’re no doubt going to be hungover. So, excuse me if I am not thrilled with you right now.” I stayed silent as she continued helping me get changed.

Eventually, I laid down as she left the room to make sure Ash and Pinoe got settled into the guest room. When she came back, she turned the lights out and climbed into bed with me. I rolled over and pulled her close to me. She didn’t resist my cuddles which was a good sign.

“I’m sorry.” I said as she stayed silent. “JJ…I’m sorry. I looove you.”

“Go to sleep.” She said after a moment. “I love you too.”

I snuggled into her more and let sleep overtake me. When I woke back up, I was alone in bed as I glanced around the room. My head was pounding as I glanced around in search of my girlfriend. I looked at the clock and saw it read 10:15 which caused me to frown. I was supposed to be getting breakfast with JJ’s family. I leaned over to the table to see a water bottle and some medicine along with a note.

“I went to breakfast without you. I decided it was better to let you sleep then take the risk of you still being drunk or make you go through a breakfast while hungover. We will talk when I get home. Love JJ”

I’m so fucked. I can’t believe I fucked it up so badly. I took the medicine and drank the water before getting up to take a shower. I walked into my living room to see the place empty. I had a text from Ash letting me know she and Pinoe had left.

I laid down on the couch watching tv trying to figure out how I could make it up to JJ. I felt bad that I had done exactly what she asked me not to do. I don’t know how long I was laying there when I heard the door open. I glanced over to see her entering the apartment. She had some bags in her hands as she was on the phone.

“Yeah. I know. Okay mom I got it. I’ll tell her you said Hi.” She said as she looked over at me. I tried my best to get my face to convey the guilt I felt. She got off the phone before setting the bags down on the counter. I stood up and walked towards her.

“Hi.” I said quietly as she crossed her arms.

“Hey.” She said tiredly.

“I’m sorry.” She nodded her head as I waited for her to say something.

“I know.” She said as I sighed.

“JJ, I don’t know how to make it up to you. I promise I hadn’t intended for last night to happen.”

“I believe you.” She said after a moment running her hands through her hair. “I’m just upset that it happened, and I know you didn’t mean for it too, but today was important.”

“I know.” I said looking down. “I wish I could go back and stop myself. I didn’t want to ruin today for you.”

She sighed rubbing her hands over her face before staring at me with a soft look. I swallowed a little as I waited for her to make the next move. What I wasn’t expecting was for her to come closer and kiss me softly.

“It’s okay. I really shouldn’t be so surprised given who you were out with.” She said as I leaned against her. She wrapped her arms around me as I tried to get as close to her as I could.

“I really am sorry.” I mumbled as she nodded her head.

“I know and if you ever pull something like this again…you’ll be very single.” She said as I nodded my head. “Also, I know how you can make it up to me.”

“How?” I asked warily as she grinned at me.

“You get to help me shop for a house.” I groaned as she grabbed my arm pulling me towards the bedroom. I did this to myself. Let’s be honest, but how could I ever say no to her?

The End.

He Was Never Mine to Have

I’m gonna get this off my chest.

I broke up with Cyrus a week before tech week for my college’s theater. I wasn’t happy and wanted to break up. That’s about all I have to say about the matter.

So tech week happens and the show happens and Friday night after our first show we have a cast party. There’s booze. And traditions that involve booze. So I get a little bit drunk, but not really because it stings bad.

There’s a boy I kinda had a crush on, but I was like “meh, he probs likes my friend Al better than me since he’s known her better for longer so ye not gonna do shit about this plus I just broke up with Cyrus so timing is not that good.” Gonna call him Tech cause he’s a techie like I am.

Traditions come and go and I’m a little bit unsteady but bored sitting in a chair in the corner so I go into the kitchen where Tech is, along with a bunch of other people I know, and I get water, talk to people. I eventually end up kinda in a corner, against a wall. Tech is on one side of me, pretty drunk by this point, and we’re chatting with a circle of people I/we know. And as we’re chatting, Tech keeps sliding his arm around my waist and such, and I’m kinda like “holy fuck” but don’t do or say anything cause it’s not like I mind.

At some point Tech goes around to my other side so I’m more in the corner now and keeps pulling me close and such, while meanwhile I’m given a shot of vodka because people think I’m lame when it comes to drinking. (I am. I accept this fact and I really don’t mind.). And when I was hesitant about drinking the shot (it smelled kinda like rubbing alcohol tbh (and another kid said it was shit vodka but he’s also kinda an alcoholic in my opinion so whateves)) Tech just kinda pulled me against his side and was like “It’s okay. I’m right here for you.” Like fuck man okay.

Then Tech leaves to go do something, and a boy I know from physics class takes his place startlingly quick, and starts pulling the same moves as Tech. I’m just like “okay dude, I’m not really feeling it” and move away as best as possible seeing as I’m in the corner, we’re talking to other people, and I don’t want to make a scene. He got the point and laid off. Not really the entire point of this story but just another thing to get off my chest.

Tech doesn’t return to the corner, but I see him go back into the living room (sorta. The only thing separating the kitchen from the living room was a counter, and he sat kinda by the counter but not at it). I’m kinda bored with this conversation and a little bit wanting more cuddling with Tech so I excuse myself with the intent of rescuing a plate of popcorn I had procured earlier in the night. (I later realized that was basically the last of the popcorn, so yay for that staying untouched XD).

I get the popcorn and cross the room to Tech and offer some to him. I have a bit of reputation of hoarding food and offering it to people at these parties, so it wasn’t really a weird thing to do. Tech, being a major klutz (he tripped up the stairs going to the party before he was even drunk) managed to spill it and we laugh about how klutzy he is, since he had relayed the sober tripping story to me at the beginning of the night. I sit down next to a tv stand that holds the stereo, next to the (low) chair Tech is in, and he slides down so he’s sitting next to me and wraps his arm around my waist again. I’m just like “fuck it, I’m drunk enough and single again, I’m going to enjoy whatever happens,” and just lean against him a bit.

My memory is a bit fuzzy so I don’t quite remember how it happened, other than Tech was touching me, and then at some point he just pulled me close and kissed me. And I’m like “welp even in best case scenarios this wouldn’t be happening” and I kiss him back because yeah I’m kinda pretty attracted to him, I’m drunk, so why the hell not. He ends up falling over so he’s leaning against his former chair, drags me with him, so we’re kinda spread over the floor and I’m laying on top of him, basically cuddling him and occasionally kissing him and kinda making out. And he mumbled stuff in my ear, and I couldn’t hear most of it because of the music, but I remember him mumbling, “I really like you.” And I’m eloquent as hell so decide to say back “same,” meaning, yeah I kinda really like you too, but I don’t think he really heard or cared cause he kissed me again like two seconds later.

So it’s about 1:30 in the morning and my parents are coming the next day to see me, so I’m thinking I should go soon. Tech tries to get me to go home with him and I say no because of the parents (and thank god I did). He asks if I want to go out to the lobby (we’re in a dorm) and I say fuck it and tell him sure, but I won’t be coming back to the party. So I gather up my shit and say goodbye and we leave, Tech stumbling down the hallway as I laugh at how uncoordinated he is. The lobby was one way from the room we were in, my exit was the other, and I naturally went towards my exit because I wasn’t very familiar with the dorm. We realize our mistake at the end of the hallway, but eh whateves. The hallway ends in a little L, with the housekeeper’s room at the end of the L, so Tech pulls me back there and we end up making out. He’s unsteady so he slides down the wall and pulls me on top of him. Gonna be honest that was the most fun I’ve had kissing a boy, because we were teasing each other and he was sweet and called my eyes pretty and we told each other we really liked each other and sometimes when we kissed he would yank me close and make little moaning sounds and it was pretty fucking nice. And I’m basically flirting my heart out with him, even as I reluctantly start untangling myself from him. He teased me for being responsible. I said I tried.

I remember at one point we were standing again cause I was trying to leave and he’s probably a head taller than me, so I was on tip toes to kiss him and he was leaning down, and I just mumble “You’re too ridiculously tall.” “Should I get on your level then?” Tech kinda smirked and slid down so he was level with me. “Fight me.” I mumbled the words while he pulled me close to kiss me again “Alright. How you gonna do that?” “I’ll punch you in the face.” “Go ahead then.” He was smirking again. “I don’t particularly want to right now. There’s better things to do…” I just trailed off and didn’t finish my sentence in favor of kissing him.

I’m about to leave, finally have my jacket on and zipped and purse over my shoulder. “Do you have to go?” We’re still leaning against each other and he’s tugging me close to keep kissing me. “I should try and be responsible and sleep.” I let him pull me back. “Plus parents.” “You don’t want to leave, do you.” “Maybe.” I kissed him again. He tried to get me to stay, to put down my things and sink back to the floor, but I pulled away with a laugh, teasing about how he was trying to keep me there. I started to walk off, but decided against it halfway to the door and walked back to kiss him hard. We made out until he nearly fell over (and dragged me with) and we laughed, kissed a couple more times, and I finally said goodbye and left.

I’m bad at confronting people. I tried not to make things awkward, but I also didn’t bring anything up when I saw Tech the next day. There was a party at the tech director’s house that night, and during the show while none of us booth people had anything to do (Tech was run crew and therefore had no part in this conversation), the tech director jokingly said, “We’re going to have to make sure Lilly and Tech behave themselves.” Thank god it was dark otherwise my face would have been bright red. “She’s a party animal,” teased another booth person. “I have been to two parties my entire time at college so far (which was nearly two trimesters) and both of them have been cast parties” I defended myself. Thank god for cues getting me out of awkward situations.

Tech offered me a ride to the tech director’s house. In hindsight he probably wanted to talk to me about the cast party. I was like “meh?” and ended up going with the SM and her boyfriend who had offered me a ride earlier (it was fun. He has a “mafia car” for anybody who cares and the SM apparently likes giving him shit for it).

Tech director’s party nothing much happens. A group of about 7 of us play Cards Against Humanity and there’s snacks and a CAT (I was hella excited about the cat and she was adorbs). I kinda had a plan to maybe flirt with Tech a little bit, but that ended up not happening because of the cat (thank you kitty). End of the night comes and Tech offers me a ride back. I know this is out of his way since he lives off campus and town is in the opposite direction from campus, but I’m bad at making decisions so I’m like “I don’t really care?” I end up going with him. He parked hella far away not realizing that there was a lot of parking close to the house, so we walked along the alley and he jokes about a friend running him over, and I’m like “I’m closer to the road so it would be me first.”

And then the cast party comes up. “Sorry about last night by the way.” “It’s fine,” I said, maybe a little bit too quickly. I only had a crush on him, but making out kinda maybe hella amplified those feelings. “It’s something I tend to do when drunk.” Shit. “Should really stop doing that, especially since I’m hoping to date Al.” Double shit. Initial readings were correct. Abort mission abort mission NOW. “Yeah probably.” I’m still trying to tease him, because I don’t want to make things weird now when he’s about to bring me back to campus and he’s about my last chance now since I feel like everybody else already left. “So, um, if you could not mention that to her that would be great…” Dude who do you think I am honestly. “I won’t. I mean I wasn’t going to tell anybody anyways, but yeah.” Fuck I’m rambling.

The car ride back was kinda awkward, but to his credit, Tech did keep up a little bit of conversation. I was mostly like fml man.

We get back to my dorm, and after a little bit of small talk about the hellish stairs as he’s pulling up, I get out and thank him for the ride, because I know it’s out of his way and I’m polite to the point of aggression thank you very much. “See you tomorrow kiddo.” Boom. So apparently Tech knows just what to say to shove a knife in my heart when I’m trying to convince myself he was never mine to have. Fuck it, whateves. “See ya!” Shuts door, runs across grass (very much *gasp!* at our school) and books it up stairs and into dorm.

Still have barely seen him, don’t think I’ve talked to him since then (more because our tech jobs are pretty separate and I spent most of my down time having a very internal panic attack about a project for class, plus it’s only Sunday night (this happened Friday night for the making out and Saturday for the CAH party)). Gonna have to spend a good chunk of next Saturday with him because he’s in pep band with me and we have another show. Fuck it, maybe I can get him to take me out to food so we don’t starve because pep will go until 4 or 5 and call time is 5:45

Anyways to wrap up this hour of rambling, Thanks for the nice night of making out Walt and helping me figure out maybe what I want from a relationship since my last one wasn’t very good. And honestly, fuck you for telling me to stop caring about what the world thinks and then pulling that out on me.

I really fucking like you, but you were never mine to have

#he was never mine to have #i'll never post this #he asked me not to tell #but it feels good to get this off my chest #Fuck you Walt #I like you but I shouldn't #(ps from much later. i'm a liar about not posting it but eh blame my roommate asking and this being the only way i was gonna tell her lol)#writing #storytime with lilly #rant blog status: reinstated
