#everyone at this company retreat was drunk as a skunk

[andisupreme]

At the company retreat, one extremely drunk girl asked what my pronouns were. (Eventually, it took her a while to word the question.) After the whole conversation was done, she goes- "YEAHHH GURL, Get on with--with THY bad self! See what I did?? They/them/thy."

I was almost holding back tears from trying not to laugh as I told her yes that's great you nailed it honey. Thank you very much I am feeling the love.

Disclaimer: this is a bulleted version of an in progress fic. I will update with the fic link[PART 1] when it is complete. this is a jumbled mess, but i felt compelled to make a bulleted whatever u call those shits that I HATE reading because it was a good clear way for me to organize my thoughts on an upcoming project, enjoy xoxo

Sicheng is your first friend at Uni

he sees you struggling and takes you under his wing

at first you two just sit together in shared classes and study every once in a while

 eventually he wants you to have more  of a social life

he takes u to meet ALL of his friends and there are A LOT

at first u only pay attention to Yuta bc u notice something between him and your bestie

yuta is very flirty, especially with Sicheng, who he looks at so sincerely

Sicheng just can’t seem to openly reciprocate

you devise a plan to get them together

once you make sure your bestie is set up with the man of his dreams you begin to focus on getting to know the other members of the crew

you get close with a few, and learn one is abroad for a few terms

you,Yuta and Sicheng become the three musketeers

they hold u close to them since you helped them become a couple

When they get tired of living in a dorm with no privacy they decide to get an apartment off campus

ofc they invite you to be their roommate

the three of you live happily

they occasionally have people over to hang out

but most nights its just the three of you cuddled up on the couch, watching a movie or doing school work

they soak up the affection you rarely give so freely

most of the time u even ditch your bed for theirs for the good company

they call u their little hermit

which u resent

but wcyd

one day they say they’re having a party, and want u to participate for once

you don’t wanna but they say their friend is coming back after having been gone a year and you’re intrigued

they tell you he’s worth knowing, a sweet and talented guy

“A hot guy” *insert obnoxious winks*

you will yourself to not take any naps throughout the day so you have an excuse to ditch everyone later

You find yourself wanting to stay up all night, however, when you set ur sights on the missing piece of the puzzle that was Sicheng and Yuta's eclectic friend group

Taeyong? A synonym for god-like? 

That’s your first thought after he introduces himself

You’re immediately smitten

his good looks and shy demeanor are more than enough to pave the way to infatuation lane

u quickly learn he is a lot more complex than he lets on

also that he needs a place to stay

Yuta has to be drunk when he says Taeyong can room with the three of you

it's only a two-bedroom apartment, you whisper

he repeats you loudly, tacking on, “But you fall asleep on the couch or in our bed anyway” before patting your shoulder

that earns you all a few looks but you agree that he can stay after he mentions he doesn’t have enough to get his own place yet and was having complications getting into the classes he needs to finish his degree because of his time abroad and he can’t stay in the dorms unless he’s enrolled

that same night Taeyong stays over, all he owns is in a bag

drunk as a skunk, when you try to go to your bed and see him curled up in your sheets you stare for a long time before going to pass out on the couch

you only realize he was awake the next day when he won’t make eye contact with you

the awkwardness takes forever to blow over

Yuta and Sicheng’s hermit is not good at communication

he tries to talk to you but you usually freeze up and he thinks you hate him

you don’t hate him

you think he’s cute and so nice and you’re not sure you can talk to him without saying something weird

so when he tells you he’s sorry for taking your bed and you say

‘i wouldn’t want anyone else to have it’

the ice is broken

he giggles cutely and you nearly choke at how adorable he is

you two become fast friends

he’s very agreeable

everything is going smoothly until he sees you go into Yuta and Sicheng’s room for the first time

the next morning he asks you if the three of you ‘you ..know?”

he immediately apologizes, says its rude

you tell him the truth and he seems content with ur answer

thinks are good 

you listen to music together and cook dinner for everyone, and he helps you study when Sicheng isn’t around

you even start to participate with the group more in order to spend more time with him

you  learn its okay to let people in, that it can be refreshing sometimes

you stop clinging so much to your best friends and start to cling to Taeyong

it gets worse when the two of you drink

you’re both very touchy

you lay all over each other, hold hands, stroke each other’s hair

you’re happy because Taeyong is kind of a germophobe and sometimes doesn’t like to be touched

but he doesn’t seem to mind as much with u

but maybe that’s the alcohol

you don’t touch a lot when ur sober

otherwise, the occasional brushing of fingers when you’re cooking together is enough to keep you happy for a few solid hours 

you feel yourself getting attached after a couple of months

you find yourself lying in bed with him after nights of drinking

its all platonic hand holding and hed petting but you cherish it the same

it becomes hard when you realize you’re falling hard and fast

because every day with him is better than the last

he’s the sweetest guy, always checking up on you and offering his help

when he get’s his classes figured out you spend less time together

he makes friends outside of the group

you stop hanging out with..well..everyone

things seem less fun without him around

Yuta points out your crush but you ignore him

its at the next house party you admit to yourself Yuta's right

you’re jealous of the lone girl at the party, aside from yourself

she’s next to Taeyong on the couch, her hand on his arm his on her knee

you go to Yuta and Sicheng’s room to sleep away your sadness

the next morning you wake up to the smell of what could only be Taeyong’s home cooking

you’re excited to ask what he’s prepared until you hear giggling

not his 

a girl’s

you retreat away

you’re in shock

she stayed the night

first, they flirt on the couch, your BED btw

and then they...IN WHAT USED TO BE YOUR BED?

you calm down, try to act like nothing has changed

because nothing has

besides Taeyong having slept with someone he’s still the same towards you

when he’s gone, he’s gone and you miss his companionship

but when he’s around you still hang out, joke, cook, study

sadly it hurts all the same as the morning u woke up to see a girl in the kitchen, Taeyong’s arm around her waist

you try to suck it up, you really do, but you settle on the fact that you aren’t adult enough to get over it 100%

your last straw is when he says he can’t catch a movie with you because he has other plans

you were being paranoid and selfish, but you decide then and there that you can’t be around him

you have places you can go, you know, but dorms were full by the time Taeyong was able to enroll again

he has nowhere else to go

so you pack a bag and are the first to leave

You can’t handle that he’s not into you

or worse

that he was at one point and the two of you missed your chances

those drunken nights of holding each other were friendly at first

but you were sure he could feel the underlying emotions

couldn’t he?

This is so fucking sweet! And feels like proof that it is so easy to just not misgender ppl 💀

At the company retreat, one extremely drunk girl asked what my pronouns were. (Eventually, it took her a while to word the question.) After the whole conversation was done, she goes- "YEAHHH GURL, Get on with--with THY bad self! See what I did?? They/them/thy."

I was almost holding back tears from trying not to laugh as I told her yes that's great you nailed it honey. Thank you very much I am feeling the love.
