The beauty and her bird
Chapter-13 "Ummm.. Breakfast?"
The new redness in the comforting darkness had me squinting my eyes to go back to the darkness. I moved my hands to cover my face with the blanket, but a rough voice pulled me out from my struggles to go back to sleep.Â
"It's time to open your eyes angel."
I groaned and rolled on my stomach in an attempt to brush the person away. But it seems like he didn't get the hint.
"I already let you sleep one extra hour. You need to get up."Â
Realising nothing can be done right now, I feigned sleep as my last resort. I heard a sigh.
"I know you are awake, Madamoseil."Â Â Â
I opened one eye to see a pair of emeralds looking back at me. I sat and opened my eyes fully.Â
"Good morning to you too Robin. You know I'm not a morning person but you just have to disrupt my sleep don't you?"
A chuckle left his beak. I smiled. They say 'the first impression is the last impression.' But I can clearly feel my impression of him is changing. When I look into those green pools, I see pain and longing. He tries to look through but his eyes give everything away. I don't know why but I find myself enjoying his company. If someone had told me that I will enjoy his company when I came here, I would have bi**h-slapped them right there.Â
"If I recall correctly, you were the one who was eager to wake up early, help me feed the birds?" His expression is almost the same but I can see amusement in his eyes, he knows he's winning.
"Fair enough." I touch the corner of my lip to feel some drool. I feel my cheeks heat up with embarrassment. I jumped out of bed with a squeal. But my clumsy self can't do anything good. So instead of landing on my feet, I got tangled in the blanket and fell off the bed. I waited for the impact but it never came. I opened my eyes.
And lo and behold. My secret crush hash friend saved me. Again. I felt my face heat up. This time I slowly removed the blankets, stood up and slowly walked towards the door to take a bath. All the while feeling his amused gaze on my back. I internally slapped myself for being so awkward. I hurriedly undressed and poured the cold water on my face to wake myself up. The red color slowly left my face. Thank God.Â
I rubbed my ass. It would've hurt pretty bad if it weren't for him. Speaking of himâŚ..Â
How did he catch me again? With his wings? But he can't catch me with his wings? He couldn't have used his talons. They would have scratched my back, not to mention he was wearing shoes. Or was he?Â
I scratched my head. And sighed. I untangled my hair and stepped away from the wet floor. I opened the door and entered my room. A dress was already sitting on the chair near the bed. It has become a tradition, well sort of. I left Robin choose the dresses I wear and he lets me make him some clothes. Pretty simple deal. It's not like I mind, I have to admit he has a pretty good taste.Â
I put the dress on and wear the corset. I was dreading this part, like always. I mean, who made this thing? It's so suffocating. After I was fine I walked outside. The familiar hallway greeted me, I couldn't help but compare it to when I had just arrived. It still has some dust here and there but compared to when I arrived it's a big improvement. The pictures weren't even visible due to the amount of dust on them.Â
I didn't even realise when I reached the dining table. Looking at the dishes, I saw that Robin had already prepared enough to feed five of me. I gazed at his emerald orbs as he caught my state but didn't look away. It wasâŚ.. strange to say, everytime I look into his eyes, I feel this strange sensation in my stomach, just like when I was younger, with AdrienâŚ. Alya had later told me that they are called butterflies and you only feel butterflies in your stomach when you look at someone you like. It's a symptom of having a 'crush'.Â
I snorted at my fairy-tales. Robin raised a single eyebrow.Â
How does he do that? I can't raise an eyebrow without the other one. What the hell?Â
I tried to mimic him and he let out a raspy chuckle. Instead of a chuckle, it sounded like a chirrup. I couldn't hold myself, I burst out laughing. Soon I was in tears. I looked at him and noticed redness on his cheeks.Â
"Are you bLuShInG?" He turned even more redder. I burst out into another guy of laughter.Â
He huffed and crossed his wings around his waist, looking anywhere but her way. "I'M NOT BLUSHING MADAMOSEIL! YOU ARE CLEARLY MISTAKEN!" He tries his best to sound casual but unfortunately for him, his voice sounded alarmed, like a little child denying he didn't steal candy after getting caught red-handed.Â
A goofy grin made its way to my face. And from the look on his face, it must be really creepy. My shoulders were shaking in an attempt to stop the laugh threatening to escape from my mouth.Â
He suddenly turned her way, the whole aura of the room changed. His eyes note into hers with such intensity, that she froze into her place. All she could see were those green eyes, green and calm like newborn leaves. They feel comfortable silence, it should have been a comfortable silence. With each passing second, she felt heat rise in her body, starting from her neck and slowly climbing towards her face. She couldn't help it, the stare was too much, she wanted to melt into a puddle right then and there, but her body seemed to have a mind of-
"Marinette" the name rolled from his tongue so perfectly that she felt butterflies in her stomach at full force. Was her name always this beautiful? "Breathe."Â
Concern was evident in his face. Huh? What did he say? Breathe? Am I- OOOHHHH! I'm not breathing. When did I hold my breath? He stood up from his seat and walked towards me, I felt myself craving his touch. I wanted to hug himâŚ..
He touched my arm and said something, his beak moved, but I couldn't hear a thing, all I could think was how his beak felt under my hands. He leaned closer, concern evident in his eyes. I involuntarily opened my lips, andâŚ.. coughed.Â
F*** Was I holding my BREATH? WhoaâŚ.Â
"Are you okay Angel?"Â
"I- Um⌠yeah yeah." I noticed my head, in reality my brain felt like goo. Whatever was happening to me, I needed to get a grip, luckily, he dropped it.
"So I tried some desserts today. Since you were later than usual." Finally, I succeeded in treating my face off him and into the food.Â
"Let's see how it tastes then." I smiled.

Friends With Benefits (Jeff Wittek Imagine) Part 3
Summary: Jeff and Y/N have been hooking up for a while. The whole vlog squad assumes theyâre dating and Y/N does too but Jeff doesnât like labels. He eventually starts to express interest in Natalie.
Note:Â Sorry I always post at night! I usually take the day to type and then release it at night. Planning on making this a multiple part series, depending on how good it does. Youâre 21 & Latina in this (maybe) series. Also, Iâd like to apologize for the typos, if there is any. Iâm just illiterate lmao. Â
Warnings! pregnancy.
Part 1, Part 2
Word Count: 1.9k
For the past week, youâve been trying to figure out ways of telling the vlog squad that youâre pregnant⌠Would it be easier just to tell everyone at one or do one/two people at a time? UGH WHY DOES THIS HAVE TO BE SO DIFFICULT. You have to tell them asap because youâll be able to know the gender in a month and you want them to be there. You decide to do something different for every couple of people in the squad but before you do, itâs time for your first ultrasound!
The last time you got this done, you were 9-10 weeks pregnant, so you were LATE finding out you were pregnant. You wanted to find the best doctor you can find and luckily, Kylie set you up with the same one she had. You brought Stass and Kylie to the appointment because they begged you. Doctor: *walks in* Hey y/n how are you feeling? Y/n: I donât feel as sick anymore but Iâve been feeling really full lately. I didnât think my stomach would pop out so early. I was thinking maybe itâs because Iâm a small and short? Doctor: âmaybe. Layback and let me take a lookâ she put the cold jelly on your stomach and starts looking around with the doppler. She finds the baby and you see it wiggling around. Kylie & Stass: âYouâre giving us major baby fever rn.â The doctor turns on the heart monitor and you hear a strong heart beat. To you, it sounds normal, but to the doctor, she hears something else. She moves the doppler some more and she sees something. Doctor: âumm miss, how thorough was the ultrasound you had in the ER?â Y/n: âI donât know, they had a lot of people and they did it a little quick? Why do you ask?â She moves the doppler to what she saw and you see another blob appear. Doctor: âif they wouldâve been more thorough and taken time, they wouldâve told you that youâre having twins. You, Kylie & Stass: âTWINS???!?!?!!!â Doctor: âYes. It seemed to be that baby B was hiding behind baby A.â None of you had words. You were having twins⌠TWO KIDS. You felt like you were having the biggest fever dream of your life but you knew this was real. You already told your family you were pregnant but know you gotta tell them that youâre having TWO? Oh hell no. Doctor: âdo you want picture?â Y/n: âuhhhh, sure?â You all walked out of the appointment speechless. Kylie: âwell that happened.â
*A few days later*
I took you a couple of days to process that youâre eating for 3. You wanted to do something simple cause you didnt wanna stress yourself out anymore than you already are.
David, Jason & Josh:
(Remember when Erin pranked David and Josh that she was pregnant but it was really an ovarian cyst? Itâs gonna be set up like that.)
You asked them to come with you and film in your tesla so you can film a car mukbang. You had the pregnancy test with the old ultrasound picture with only one baby in the glove compartment and you had the one that shows the twins in your pocket. Y/n: *filming a mukbang* âHey guys! I have David, Josh and Jason here with me, say hi.â  All three of them: âHi!!!â Y/n: âSince I had no other ideas this week, my last resort was this. So have fun watching us stuff our faces with food.â You drove to Chick-Fil-A, in n out and jack in the box. Once you got everything, You parked in a parking lot, but before you start, you asked David to get you some ânapkinsâ that were in your glove compartment and you saw his eyes go wide. David: âShut the fuck up.â Jason and Josh are in the backseat all confused and David shows them. Jason: âNo youâre not.â Youâre just sitting there all nervous/ laughing and all you can say is âyes I am.â David is crying cause he loves babies, Jason & Josh are congratulating you. David: âWhoâs the dad?â Y/n: âHeâs not in the picture.â They all look at you with sad eyes. Jason: âweâll be here to help with everything at anytime.â Your hormonal ass is getting the best of you and you try to hold back the tears. Y/n: âoh! One more thing. That was the first ultrasound from 3-4 weeks ago, this one was from a couple of days agoâ They all see the two blobs. All three boys: âARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS YOUâRE HAVING TWINS?.â David: âCan I plan the gender reveal party?? Y/N: âSorry, Kylie already called dibs.â David: âYou told Kylie before us? Wow thatâs cold.â Y/n: âOh shut up. She was my only friend my age that has a baby. I had to get advice.â David: â To make it up to me, If one of them is a boy, can you please name it David Jr.â Y/n: âYesâŚ. for 250k.â Jason: âHonestly, I wouldnât put it past him⌠cause it would probably be sponsored by seatgeek.â David: *looks to the camera* âYou heard it yourself people. If she has a boy, sheâll name it David Jr. for 250k. â Y/n: âDamn now Iâm kinda scaredâ
NEXT DAY, Corinna & Mariah:
Okay so that went well, I gonna do a 2 truths, 1 lie with Corinna & Mariah. Theyâre gonna be playing on the same team, so itâs 2 against 1, well 2 against 3 lol. After about 3 rounds, it was a tie (I lied on other ones so we can tie.) Y/N: âOkay so my first one is that I broke my leg when I was 15, 2. I hate Corinnaâs dog and 3. Iâm pregnant. Mariah: âOh what the fuckâŚ.. Ummm.â Corinna: âWait, you hate Carl?!â Y/n: âJust answer the question.â Mariah & Corinna: âThe lie has to be that youâre pregnant.â Y/n: âthe lie is that I hate Carl.â It took them a minute to understand what I said. Mariah: âYOUâRE FUCKING PREGNANT.â Corinna: âOH MY GOD NO WAAAY.â Y/n: âOh and one more thing! âShows them the twin ultrasound.â Mariah & Corinna: ARE YOU FUCKING JOKING.â Corinna: âAre they Jeffâs?â Y/n: âIs it that obvious?â Mariah: âKind of. The boys havenât noticed because theyâre idiots.â
NEXT DAY: Kristen, Scotty, Todd, Zane, Heath & Matt:
(I made this a big collab cause I was running out of ways to tell people)
So for this reveal, I asked the six of them to send in their silly baby/kid pictures so we can react to them. The last pic will be of the twin ultrasound. Y/n: *filming* âHey guys! Iâm here with Kristen, Scotty, Todd, Zane, Heath & Matt, say hi.â All 6 of them: âHi!!!â Y/n: âThis week, weâll be reacting to our childhood photos and maybe roast them.â All of the pictures were so 90s. Kristen with the classic ruffled poofy dresses, Matt looking like a nerdy kid, Zane holding Hidaya when she was born, 7 year old Scotty singing into a hair brushâŚ. And then the final picture, my twin ultrasound. Everybody was so confused. Zane: âDid someone eat their twin in the womb? cause aint none of us a twin.â And then someone finally noticed. Matt: âY/n why is your name at the corner of that ultrasound?â Kristen: âNO YOUâRE NOT.â Heath: âOOOO BITCH SHE GONNA HAVE 2 LITTLE COFFEE BEANS.â Scotty and Todd are just speechless. Youâre wondering if Todd knew about you and Jeff because heâs his best friendâŚ
You pulled aside Kristen and told her Everything. The only people you can trust with who the dad is are the girls. Kristen: âAre you gonna tell him?â Y/n: âNo⌠He doesnât treat me right. If heâs never treated me right, how is he gonna treat these babies?â
Todd & Jeff on a hike:
Todd: âHey, did you hear that Y/n is pregnant?â Jeff: âwhoa no I didnât. Who told you that?â Todd: ây/n did. She revealed it in a collab she was doing with others. Sheâs having twins.â Jeff: âJesus Christ, twins? Thatâs gonna be terrible.â Todd: âShe mustâve forgot to tell you. Maybe pregnancy brain really is a thing.â Jeffâs thoughts: âI knew that bitch was sleeping with other people. Thereâs no way those babies are mine. She had no right trying to get mad at me cause Iâd ghost her. Thank god Iâm with Natalie. Sheâs like no one Iâve ever dated before.â
Hanging out with Kylie & Stass:
I told all of the vlog squad. Stass: âDid you tell Jeff?â Y/n: âNo, but Olivia told me that Todd told him. I think Jeff is too dumb to connect the dots. He wonât figure it out.â Kylie: âAre you sure you donât want to tell him? Youâre having twins and one baby is already a lot but two? You need the help. You know what, I can hire nannies for you.â Y/n: âWhat? No, you donât have to do that. I donât wanna spend your money.â Kylie: âItâs not like Iâm running out. You do remember that Iâm a billionaire, right?â Stass & Y/n: âHow could we forget lol.â
David, Jason & Josh POV
David: âIt sucks that y/n is gonna be a single mom. Itâs gonna be a lot; 2 babies and sheâs in her last year of college. I hope sheâll be okay.â Jason: âSheâll be fine. She has all of us to look out for her.â Josh: âI have my own kid to watch, so Iâll probably not be as much help.â David: âShe has been one of the best friends Iâve ever had. We met on vine in 2015, we met up here in LA and then the rest was history. She was really there for me when Liza and I broke up. She was my shoulder to cry on. Honestly, Iâd do anything for her.â Jason: âDo you have a thing for y/n?â David stayed silent. Josh: âIâm not sure if itâd be the right time to try to win her over. She has a lot going on.â David: âItâs getting pretty late, yâall should be heading home. Jason: âYeah. I have to pick up Charlie and Wyatt early tomorrow. Josh: âThe wife doesnât like that I stay out late, goodnight.â
David thinking to himself:
Iâve had a thing for y/n for a while now but I donât know. Itâs obvious that she had a thing with Jeff. Because of those 2 fights they had in my backyard, I wouldnât be surprised if Jeff was the father. I was mad at how Jeff spoke about her. She not like that at all! I mean, itâs not wrong if she were but no one should ever talk to a women like that. Iâll help her as much as possible; Iâm not opposed if anything were to spark between us along the wayâŚ
Back to Y/n, Kylie & Stass:
Kylie: âWhenâs your next appointment?â Y/n: â2-3 weeks, why?â Kylie: âCause by that time, WE CAN FIND OUT THE GENDER OF THE BABIES!â Stass: âSheâs obviously gonna go all out. Did you see Stormiâs first birthday? I swear it looked bigger than a sweet 16.â Y/n: âOh boy⌠or girlâŚâ
------------------------
We get to find out the genders in the next chapter!! Sheâll be like 16 weeks by then⌠Iâm excited! Iâve already decided what both are gonna be⌠Thereâs gonna be some surprises! Oh and David has a thing for y/n? Ooooo girl the Tea is HOT. I also just realized the date of the video I picked when y/n and Jeff diddled (yes I said diddled).... The date on the video says 7/20âŚ. That means the twins are due 4/20âŚâŚ. I swear I didnât plan that lmao.

You, Me, and Satan Himself
Lee Jooheon X Reader
Word count: 6.5k
Warnings: mild language. there are a couple of mentions of suicide/attempted suicide, not member or reader related. also mentions of child death, also not member or reader related. ummm I think thatâs it.Â
Genre: bffs to lovers. idiots to lovers. alludes fwb but not LJH/Reader. Itâs got some spooky themes, but ultimately itâs fluff.
A/N: Itâs a Halloweeeeeen story! Ghosts and ghouls, firemen and pirates and of course Satan himself. ;D Happy Birthday @nemesyis! This one is for you. Itâs not really an attack story, but I hope you enjoy it anyway!Â
Wind was howling through the naked branches of the trees that lined the path you were on. The brisk chill of the fall air made you shiver. Much to your chagrin the dress and tights combo of your costume was doing almost nothing to keep the cold from consuming you. Clicking of your black lolita heels against the pavement beneath you echoed down the avenue you were walking down. Luckily it was a full moon, which meant that the path was fully visible despite the lack of lights. It might have been romantic if you werenât mentally preparing yourself to be spooked. Focusing in on the sound of every branch that cracked, every hoot of an owl, every flicker of movement in your peripherals was being noted and you were thrilled by the way it all made the blood tingle in your veins. The only thing putting you off was the chattering of your teeth. It was hard to focus on getting in the mood when you couldnât stop thinking about how cold you were.
âI told you to bring a jacket.â Jooheon muttered beside you.
âA jacket doesnât go with this costume.â you advised him for the hundredth time that night. âAnd the dress has sleeves...I thought it would be warmer.â
âYeah well my costume doesnât require a jacket either, so thanks for that.â he complained.
Stopping, you looked over at your very grumpy best friend. It was cute, his outfit. Plaid button down shirt tucked into brown cargo shorts. Round glasses sat on his nose. Pocket protector, complete with pens, sat against his chest. Tube socks pulled all the way up his calves and dirty sneakers on his feet. Every little detail made you smile, youâd done wonderfully putting it together for him, you knew there was even an inhaler in his pocket. He was the perfect Joel Glicker to your Wednesday Addams.
âHoneyâŚâ you said lifting your hand to his cheek as he pouted at you, âyou look so cute. Thank you for being the best best friend a girl could ask for. I promise that next year I will have a boyfriend of my own and Iâll make him do couples costumes with me, and then youâll never have to deal with it again.â
He sighed deeply and then gave a tight smile, you still caught a glimpse of his dimple, âItâs fine.â
Once the two of you got moving again you fell back into a comfortable silence, like the pair of you usually did. Instead of going back to your mood setting thoughts you considered Jooheon. He really was the greatest guy you knew. Growing up neighbors left him destined to be either your best friend or worst enemy and at different points in your life heâd been both.
From toddler to teen you were inseparable. Then at some point you couldnât remember hormones tore you apart. That was when he met the boys. You could still remember how jealous youâd been that first summer watching them hanging out all the time, wishing it was still you he wanted to spend his time with. Youâd tried making new friends but mostly became a recluse, playing video games all the time and reading libraries worth of books. In high school you got your first boyfriend, an athlete in the year ahead of you, and you dated for three years. On the first day of summer before your senior year he ditched you because he wanted to be single for university.
You never knew how heâd heard about the break up, you never asked, but the very next day when you had convinced yourself you were never leaving your blanket burrito ever again Jooheon showed up. The moment he walked into your room, after your mom had let him in the house, it was like there had never even been a second that you were apart. He spent every single day with you that summer. Even if heâd had plans with the boys, he always dragged you along. You barely spent a second alone and by the time senior year started you had practically forgotten youâd ever had a boyfriend in the first place. From then on you were back to inseparable even now as adults.
âI hate this.â he grumbled beside you.
The shrubbery along the path was thickening and it was getting darker the further you moved along. You reached over and grabbed his hand, squeezing your fingers around his.
âDonât worry so much. Iâll protect you, I swear.â you smiled over at him. âWeâre almost there.â
There was the sound of another snapping branch from the trees and you could feel his body vibrate in fear, âWeâre going to die, I hope you know. This is the worst night of my whole life because Iâm going to die...dressed like a nerd.â
âThank you.â you said again.
âFor what? Dying with you on this cold, dark, abandoned path to some haunted house in the middle of nowhere?â
âKind of,â you laughed quietly, âThank you for coming with me tonight. I know you would have much preferred to stay at the party picking up chicks. Instead you came with me and that means a lot.â
âOh,â he seemed to ease at your words and even puffed out his chest slightly, âItâs cool. Honestly, no big deal at all. I didnât want to be at that party if you werenât going to be there anyway. And yes, this may be a weird, creepy idea that I hate more than anything, but you know Iâd do anything for you.â
You squeezed his hand again and smiled, âI love you, Honey.â
He rolled his eyes but smiled all the same, âI love you too.â
âWeâre so close, the house is right up here, just around that curve.â you couldnât help your excitement and you moved faster down the path.
As you had nearly reached the end of the path, the abandoned house in your sight, you could see a large dark mass speeding towards you, but you didnât process it fast enough. Not until the cloaked figure was already rawring loudly into your face. Jumping back you clutched your chest, heart racing. Seconds passed and you finally registered Changkyunâs laughter, and your eyes adjusted enough to see his devilish face clearly. Jooheon was long gone, having sprinted back down the path quite a ways, he was still shrieking.
âThatâs so fucked, Kyun.â you let out a large breath.
Devil horns atop his head, he held up his finger, an evil grin on his lips, âJust wait, it gets better.â
By then Jooheon���s screams had petered down. When you looked down the path to the silhouette of his figure you could see he was making his way, slowly, back to you. He was still several yards away when you saw the two new dark figures creeping out of the brush behind him. It was very clear he hadnât noticed their presence yet.
âNo, my poor Honey.â you mumbled, âMinhyuk?â
âAnd Hyungwon.â Changkyun snickered beside you.
After just a moment more of silence you could hear their collective âBoo!â as they lunged towards Jooheon. The sound of his screaming and cursing echoed through the night as he sprinted full speed back to you.
âAssholes!â he shouted, âAll my friends are assholes!â
He clung to you as he panted, catching his breath and you gently patted his back, âYouâre not wrong about that.â Â
âI knew it was going to be good,â Minhyuk said still laughing as he and Hyungwon made it to the group, âbut that was so much better than I ever expected.â
After finishing rolling your eyes you saw a flicker of light bouncing its way out of the front of the building.
âShownu!â you called out cheerfully as you recognized the man behind the flashlight in his fireman costume. He gave a small wave as he made his way over. âWhereâs everyone else?â
âKihyun and Hoseok met some people at the party.â He shrugged as he moved out of the hug heâd given you. âHoseok said to say sorry. Kihyun said to tell you he was not sorry and that if you couldnât understand you werenât really friends.â
You laughed, knowing that it was likely thatâs exactly what he said. âWait so you just went in all by yourself?â
âYeah, no one was here when I got here so I went in and took a look around. Not very exciting as far as haunted houses go. I didnât find any workers. Thereâs no smoke machines or creepy music.â he said sounding very unimpressed.
âNunuâŚâ you shook your head, âOh sweet man, itâs not a haunted house, itâs just creepy and abandoned.â
âOhh.â he nodded in understanding, âThat makes more sense.â
Jooheon quickly went from clinging to you to clinging to the pillar of muscle and fearlessness that was Shownu. âFull offense to everyone else here, who sucks, but dibs on Nu as my partner.â
âDibs on y/n.â Minhyuk said throwing his arm over your shoulder, âUnintentionally wearing couples costumes and everything.â
You looked him up and down in confusion, âMin, youâre a pirate. How are we at all a couples costume?â
âYou see, after tonight, when youâre wowed by my courage, strength, and overall ability to protect you, you wonât be able to resist me.â you did your best to hold back a snort, âAfter that, we will be a couple and then no matter what our outfits are they will always be couples outfits. ...because, you know, weâll be a couple.â
âI think I got it.â you laughed.
As heâd been talking everyone, with the exception of Minhyuk himself, watched as Hyungwon slipped silently behind the brazen pirate. In a swift motion he reached out, grabbing his hips, with a quick boo! Minhyuk jumped about a foot in the air, his pirate hat was thrown off his head and his shrill shriek pierced the cold air.
âYeah...good luck in there, y/n.â Hyungwon said shooting you a wink.
âSheâs a goner for sure.â Changkyun smirked.
âAlright, alright.â you said anxiously, âLetâs do this. I donât want to be standing out here until the sun comes up.â
Pushing through the group you made your way to the dark house. The pirate and the devil followed closely behind, the others with slightly less enthusiasm. Once you hit the porch steps of the old colonial house you pulled your flashlight from the pocket of your dress. One of the double doors had been broken or removed and was leaning against the door frame. It wasnât really breaking and entering, you thought to yourself, just entering really.
You ducked through the open door to avoid the giant cobweb in the corner. Inside the house was covered in a thick layer of dirt and dust. Dead leaves scattered across the floor as far as your eyes could see and you wondered just how long the front door had been down. Rebellious teenagers had left graffiti a top the peeling wallpaper. There were giant holes all along the walls and you were sure there wasnât a foot of copper wiring left in the old bones of the home.
The foyer was huge and as the beam of your flashlight moved over it you could just imagine how beautiful it had been in its youth. There was a staircase to the second floor to the left of the room. Beyond it were two hallways leading off in opposite directions. You looked over at the giant landing at the base of the staircase and nodded to yourself.
âChangkyun,â you said and flashed your light over at the area, âhow about here?â
He nodded in agreement, âPerfect.â
He handed you candle after candle from a brown satchel at his side to light and place around the area. When the fireman, Glicker, and Hyungwon as the ghoul all made it inside the whole group of you got comfortable, or as comfortable as you could, on the landing of the staircase. The devil stayed standing, his red cloak swooped around his legs and the light from the candles lit up his face dramatically as he prepared to tell the group about the history of the home. The shadow of his horns illuminated against the wall behind him.
âThe year,â Changkyun began, âwas eighteen oh six. Doctor Leonardo Fitz had just wed the love of his life, Maria Vanderson. As a grand gesture of his love for her he had this house built just for her and what was meant to be their large, happy family. However, after many years had passed the halls of the home remained without the laughter of children. It seemed that the couple was not fated for the family they had dreamed of. Maria was devastated and heartbroken, believing herself to be at fault for their misfortune. Unable to take the guilt of it all she attempted to drown herself in the couple's claw footed bathtub, that remains upstairs to this very day.â
Jooheon let out a hiss of a breath and burrowed closer to you.
âMaria Vanderson was unsuccessful at her death, found too quickly by the house maid and dragged from the water. Though when she woke her husband feared the damage had already been done. His wife had become delusional. Nightmares haunted her sleep and visions attacked her in the light of day. To anyone who would give her a minute of their time she babbled on about what had happened in her time in the great beyond. She spoke of a man that had come to her just before the light took her for good.
The man with eyes as black as the darkest night sky pressed the palm of his clawed hand against her flat stomach. Locking his dark stare with her fearful one he whispered, âmy sonâ. A little over a month after the incident occurred they found out that Maria was pregnant. The doctor, desperate for an excuse for his wives apparent insanity, blamed her delusions on the pregnancy hormones. Nine months to the very day of her attempted suicide, Maria gave birth.â
âNooooo.â Minhyuk gasped. You bit your lip to keep from laughing at the look of absolute horrified realization on his face.
âWhat?â Jooheon asked with morbid curiosity, even as he wrapped himself even tighter around you.
Minhyuk looked over at him with raised eyebrows and mouthed, âItâs the devils baby!â
Changkyun sighed in annoyance. âWell if Minhyuk is just going to spoil everything whatâs the point of even going on with the story.â
âOh, Kyunnie, please!â You pouted cutely, âItâs so good and you worked so hard on all that research.â
âI did.â He nodded smugly, âI researched the entire history of this home⌠ So I will continue, but everyone better keep their theories to themselves.â
âSorry,â Minhyuk said as he coward at the pointed look from his junior.
âWhat had been more shocking than the timing of Mariaâs labor,â he started once more, âwas that she gave birth to twin boys. One with flaxen hair like his father, the others black as a ravenâs feather.â
Minhyuk let out another dramatic gasp but quickly slammed his hand over his mouth.
Changkyun continued, âBoth boys grew up portraits of health and seemingly as normal as any other child might. The only difference between them besides the color of their hair was that Damian, the raven haired child, had been fussier than his brother Gabriel. He required much more attention but only that from his mother was able to comfort him. As they aged the changes and differences between them became more and more clear. Gabriel was a playful, independant boy that enjoyed spending his time outside in the sun. He liked to run around the giant yard, swinging on the swing set, and climbing trees. He liked to be dirty and to laugh.
Damien did not enjoy those things. He was quiet, an observer of the things around him. Even though he was just a boy he still knew things about the people in the home, their secrets. Â He preferred to do whatever his mother was doing, always at her side. She called him her little shadow and adored him with every ounce of her being. The doctor did not feel the same way about the boy. He felt he could see a darkness in the child and was watching it grow every day. It terrified the doctor to see how he manipulated Maria and the others in the house into loving him.
One afternoon Maria had been getting ready for a gala she was to attend with the doctor. Sheâd been in front of her vanity doing her makeup. The boys had been running up and down the hallway and in the playroom quite loudly. After some time had passed she realized the house had grown silent.â
âI donât like it,â Jooheon whispered just to you, and pressed his face into your shoulder. You squeezed his hand comfortingly and listened to Changkyun go on.
âWhen she stepped from the bedroom into the hallway the only thing she could see was Damien at the top of the stairs holding a wooden toy airplane at his side. As she moved closer to her son she could see the mortifying view at the bottom of the stairs. Her fair haired boy laid mangled across the bottom step, blood oozing around him. She wrapped Damien in her arms, pressing his face to her chest to protect him from the sight. The help claimed they could her screams for hours after, just echoing up and down the halls. Maybe weâll even hear them tonight.â
âWait...these stairs?!â Hyungwon asked in a panic, shooting up from the bottom step heâd been sitting on. He cleared his throat and said a little more casually, âI mean ...these stairs?â
âOne and the same.â Changkyun confirmed.
âWhat...thatâs it?â Shownu asked high key unimpressed. You watched as Hyungwon slowly made his way from the staircase to the opposite side of the circle, otherwise unnoticed.
âWorry not, the story doesnât end there.â
âOh god damn it.â Jooheon groaned beside you.
âAlright, everyone, settle down and focus.â Changkyun waited for everyoneâs attention before going on with the story. âDoctor Leo knew right away what had happened to his son and was furious. He wanted to get rid of the evil boy. However, Maria loved her son and she refused to believe the ravings of a madman. One day while sheâd been out the doctor had even brought a priest into the home to try and exorcise the boy. Maria was enraged when she arrived home. Unable to handle the pained cries of the only child she had left, she tore the restraints from his body and banned the clergy from her home.
A decade had passed and the doctorâs fear and anger had torn him and Maria apart. They stayed on opposite sides of the home. She refused to speak to him because every time she did he would just say some hurtful things to her about Damien. The doctor began to drink heavily, he was falling apart having lost his son and then his wife.
On his fifteenth birthday, what would have been Gabriels as well, Maria took her son into the city for lunch and then to the zoo. When they arrived back home they found the doctor had ended his own life. Unable to handle the evil consuming the home any longer. His limp, lifeless body was found hanging from the railing, just there,â Changkyun pointed up to the railing of the second floor that was broken, leaving dangerous open gaps, âHeâd made a noose out of bed sheets.â
âTwo down, one to go.â Hyungwon joked, though he eyed the railing warily
âHe wonât kill the mom.â Shownu argued. Both Minhyuk and Jooheon shuddered at the thought.
You sighed, âCome on, guys. Heâs almost to the best part.â
âWhich is?â Shownu asked.
âThe end.â Jooheon grumbled.
âThe best part is when he finally gets to the reason weâre really here.â you corrected.
âJust get it over with then.â Minhyuk whined, pulling his knees to his chest.
âFor three years following the death of the doctor, mother and son lived here quite harmoniously. The only complaints to be had were from the help. Maids and gardeners often complaining about the property being overrun by creatures that always ended up dead. In the home and around it they found rats, cats, birds, foxes, rabbits, and snakes. As if theyâd come to the house for the sole purpose of dying.
One afternoon, not long after Damienâs eighteenth birthday, Maria was just coming home from a short trip to the city. Out on the lawn, she found the old gardener facedown on the ground, dead. Â When she ran inside the maid and the cook where both here in the foyer. Deep gashes like those from the claws of an animal covered their bodies. Blood was seeping from their wounds. She could see, dug into the wood flooring, were marks left by the cooks nails as sheâd been dragged down the hall. Terrified for her sonâs life, Maria searched the whole house for Damien. She found the door of the study, the last place sheâd checked, slightly ajar. She peered inside and what she saw made her sick with fear.
Her son was standing in the center of the room with his eyes closed and naked as the day he was born. Behind him the fireplace was burning and she watched with wide eyes as a horned beast stepped out from the flames half man, half animal. Ten feet tall it had hoven feet and eyes as black as the darkest night. In his clawed hands he held a gold chalice. He spoke in a language she could not understand and from the chalice poured what seemed like an endless stream of dark red blood on top of her sonâs head.
In a voice sheâd heard before the beast whispered, my son.
Damienâs eyes opened under the shower of blood, and she gasped when she saw they were as black as his fathers. The door swung open, exposing her. The last thing she saw was the sick twisted smile of her demon son as his father came for her. Â
Some people say you can hear the sound of hoven feet against the hardwood floor, the pained screams of Maria, the giggles of young Gabriel, and warnings from the doctor himself, whispered against your ear, begging you to leave this damned home.â
âIâve seen the fireplace in the study. Itâs huge. The devil coming out of it,â Shownu shrugged, âthatâs actually pretty believable.â
âThe devil!â Jooheon whined, âThatâs so much worse than just a regular ghost story! I hate this, Iâm gonna be sick.â
âWho is going to explain why weâre here?â Shownu asked, âI thought that would be made clear.â
âWeâre here to find the chalice.â Changkyun answered. âSomewhere in this haunted old house is the devil's cup. We will go in our pairs and search until itâs found or the sun has risen.â
âWhat do we get if we find it?â Hyungwon asked intrigued.
âPride, honor, a golden chalice to drink all of your future drinks out of.â you said as if the answer were obvious. âAlso, the winning team gets breakfast paid for by the losers.â Â
âYeah, weâre winning. Letâs go.â With that Shownu grabbed Jooheon by the wrist and dragged him down the hall to the left.
âGame on.â Changkyun said with a wicked laugh before running upstairs with Hyungwon hot on his devils tail.
~~
The house was much scarier than you expected it to be. It might not have been that bad if it werenât for the fact that Minhyuk was trembling with fear everywhere the two of you went. Youâd searched the kitchen and the dining room together. The pair of you clung desperately to each other with every step you took down in the basement. You were sure if the chalice had been down there youâd missed it. The only thing you were focused on while you were down there was getting back upstairs and Minhyuk had been much worse off than you. He made you search the study by yourself while he stood by the door holding a shaking flashlight in your general direction. The pair of you passed by Shownu and Jooheon on the way to the sitting room and the sun room on the opposite side of the house.
Once you were sure youâd been to every room downstairs you went upstairs. In the childrenâs room, instead of the chalice you found a dust covered, wooden toy airplane. When you showed it to Minhyuk he screamed and for several minutes you were certain he was going to cry. Then, walking across the hall from one bedroom to another, a toy ball rolled passed your feet and Minhyuk swore he heard a childâs laughter. Though the whole situation made your chest tight with fright, part of you was also sure that Changkyun had something to do with it. Especially since you hadnât seen him or Hyungwon the entire time youâd been upstairs. Â
The two of you were headed to the master bedroom next. Minhyuk was a few feet in front of you. He passed by an open bedroom door without a second thought but a quiet whistling from the room caught your attention. Youâd looked everywhere in the small room, and were standing nervously in front of the closet when Minhyuk called your name from down the hall. You turned to call back to him but when you opened your mouth a hand slammed down against your lips. Screaming into the hand, you were dragged backwards into the closet and the door closed in front of you.
âGod, Y/n, stop screaming.â Changkyun whispered against your ear and spun you around.
âWhat the hell, you scared the fuck out of me.â you hissed as your eyes started to adjust to the darkness.
âAll of the fuck?â he grinned, âNot even a little fuck left for me?â
âApologize,â you whispered, sliding your hand from his chest to his hip, âmaybe then I can find a fuck for you.â
He leaned in and dragged the tip of his nose from your throat to the base of your ear and whispered back, âIâm sorry I scared you.â
You hummed in pleasure, âOh, look, I think I found one.â
âMm, thatâs good.â he said before leaving kisses along your neck, pulling the soft skin between his teeth until you were groaning. You squirmed beneath his hands as they pinned your hips against the wall.
âKiss me for real.â you whined. He lifted his face to yours and let you pull his lips between yours. You kissed him for a full minute before you realized he wasnât kissing back. âWhat? Whatâs wrong? Why arenât you kissing me?â
He cupped your face in his hands with a smile, âNothingâs wrong.â
âOkay, then kiss me.â
He leaned in again, this time pressing his lips against yours in a true kiss. His tongue slipped between your teeth and you pulled his hips closer, practically slamming them into yours. He kept you pressed against the old, dirty wall of the bedroom closet until your lips were sore and swollen and you werenât sure which tongue was his and which was yours. When he finally pulled away, he kept his eyes on you for a moment as you caught your breath. Â
Then he pressed a sweet kiss against your forehead and smiled, âWe had fun right?â
âWhat? Why did you say it like that? Had?â you asked confused.
âThat was our last kiss, kiddo.â he said as if it was just any ordinary conversation.
âWhat?â
âJooheon is going to ask you out later.â
âWhat?â
He chuckled, âYou should say yes. He likes you, is in love with you, likes you.â
âWhat?â
He grabbed your face in his palms, âPlease stop saying what.â
âUm,â you looked at him trying to process but not being able to, âWhat?â
âJooheon, you remember him?â he asked. You nodded, âHeâs in love with you. Heâs going to ask you out on a date. A real date, not just you two being besties like youâve always been. I really think you need to say yes. I think you want to say yes. He really wants to be with you and you deserve that.â
âSo...what does that mean, you donâtâ you asked feeling a little hurt.
âOh baby girl, I donât want to be with anyone. Iâm just having fun and we did that, right? You had fun?â
âYeah, I guess so.â
He frowned seeing how upset you were, âYou want more than secret rendezvous every once in awhile. Iâm not totally clueless. I know youâve been wanting more from me for awhile now.â
âI guess I was the clueless one.â you sighed.
âNoâ he said, âwhat I do just isnât for everyone. You deserve more. You deserve real dates where you go out to dinner and then get ice cream after. You deserve sleepovers that end in you falling asleep together on the couch while the movie is still running. You deserve someone thatâs going to drag you around everywhere and tell anyone whoâll listen that youâre his girl, because nothing makes him more proud than being with you.â
A small smile found its way to your lips, âHoney.â
âExactly.â Changkyun smiled.
âYou really think he loves me? I mean, I know he loves me like a best friend butâŚâ
âHe would not be trembling his way through this dark abandoned home on Halloween night, if it wasnât for you. He would do anything for you and heâd do it because he loves you. Loves you loves you.â He shook his head as if amused, âYou love him back, you know. Thereâs nothing you wouldnât do for that delicate little man.â
âWhat if itâs not supposed to be like that. What if it ruins our friendship?â you bit your lip.
âYou would never let that happen, either of you.â Changkyun said with certainty, âYouâll never let him out of your life, and heâll never let you out of his. Even if things go horribly wrong, which I guarantee they won't, you two are going to have each other forever.â
~~~
It wasnât totally clear how long youâd been in that closet with Changkyun but you knew it had probably been too long. Minhyuk was nowhere to be found upstairs and you immediately felt horrible having left him alone for so long. You had run into Hyungwon who asked if youâd seen Changkyun and you gave a vague response about him maybe being in the master bedroom before heading downstairs again.
Your flashlight had gone dead just before youâd run into Hyungwon, so you were pretty desperate to find your partner. The way down the stairs was slow going as you cautiously felt for each step before moving forward. Midway down the light from a flashlight hit you in the face. You squinted, unable to see who was coming up the stairs.
âHey!â Jooheon grabbed your arms looking panicked, âWhere were you?â
âI was just searching upstairs. Whatâs wrong? Are you okay?â You asked concerned.
He dropped his hands to his sides with relief, âWe ran into Minhyuk, he said he lost you. Iâve been looking everywhere for you. I was so worried. Whereâs your flashlight?â
âOh...it died. You were worried about me? You searched a dark abandoned house for me all by yourself?â You grinned.
âWell...yeah. I just, I didnât want you to be alone or get hurt or something.â
I wasnât,â you paused, he didnât need to know you werenât exactly alone, âI was okay. Thank you for coming to find me though.â
You looked over your shoulder at the sound of footsteps on the stairs and nodded at Changkyun as he passed the two of you, Hyungwon following close behind. You watched him all the way down the stairs and into the dinning room before looking back at Jooheon. He looked from you to where Changkyun has disappeared and then back again.
âYou were alone, right?â He asked quietly.
âMostlyâŚâ
He bit his lip nervously as he looked up at you, âDo you want to be with him?â
âBe with who?â You gulped.
âKyun. Are you into him?â
A small smile spread across your lips, âNo, actually I think I might be into someone else.â
âOh.â His shoulder fell with disappointment. âYou never told me about anyone new. Usually you tell me that kind of stuff.â
âHeâs not really new. Iâve known him for awhile.â
Jooheonâs face creased in confusion, âWho do you know that I donât know?â
âI never said you didnât.â You laughed.
âSomeone we both know and itâs not Changkyun?â He asked. You could see the gears turning in his mind. âOh god. Please tell me itâs not Minhyuk.â
âI found it!â Hyungwon screamed, running into the foyer holding the golden chalice high above his head. âWe win!â
âNoooooo!â You could hear Minhyuk whining before you saw him tear into the foyer from the opposite hall. âWhere?!â
âKitchen.â Changkyun was leaning against a post, you hadnât even seen him stroll in after Hyungwon.
âWe looked there!â Minhyuk spun around the room with his flashlight until he spotted you under the beam of light, âDidnât we look there, y/n?â
You blocked the light from your eyes with your hand, âYes, Min.â
âWell not good enough. Haaaaah!â Hyungwon laughed as Minhyuk chased after him through the foyer, grabbing for the chalice.
âHey!â Shownu shouted from the balcony, the light from his phone illuminating his face, âKihyun and Hoseok are already at the diner for breakfast. They want us to meet them there.â
Finally gathered together once more the whole group took off together, back down the avenue of trees. Dawn was coming and what once was pitch black was now a muted gray. Everything looked a little different in the soft light. You turned around and looked back at the old house, it didnât look very threatening at all.
Changkyun had thrown his arm over your shoulder, in what you knew was now simply the action of a good friend. Though Jooheon didnât and he pouted as he walked with Shownu behind the two of you. With a yawn you wondered how Minhyuk had the energy to chase Hyungwon down the sidewalk, still desperate for the golden chalice.
Hoseok and Kihyun met the group outside of the twenty-four hour diner looking a little worse for the wear. Hoseok was half asleep and stumbling drunk as you made your way inside. The group packed into two red vinyl booths.
Jooheon looked up from his plastic covered menu at you in surprise as you slipped into the booth next to him. âWouldnât you rather sit with your boyfriend?â
âWho? Changkyun?â You asked, pulling the menu between the two of you so you could read it too. âI thought we cleared that up. I like someone else.â
âYeah but you never said who. Are you going to tell me?â
You opened your mouth to say something and he watched you wide eyed with anticipation. However the waitress had arrived for drink orders, giving you a second chance to avoid the question. It wasnât that you werenât going to tell him, just that you enjoyed the frustrated look on his face, it was too cute to resist.
When the waitress left to get the drinks, instead of telling him what he wanted to know, you engaged with Kihyun who was sitting across from you in a very serious discussion about what to order. You couldnât decide between dinner and breakfast. In the end you did what you always did. Jooheon would get breakfast and you would get dinner and then youâd split your meals.
âDid you have fun at least?â You asked Jooheon as the waitress came around with your food. âIt wasnât that bad was it?â
âNo, not as bad as I expected.â He sighed as he separated his meal into two. âIt was fun. I scared Hyungwon once, did I tell you?â
âNo! You didnât!â Laughing at the thought, you put half of your cheeseburger on his plate. âIâm so happy you had fun, Honey.â
âIâm sorry you didnât win.â He said quietly
You grinned, âOh itâs okay. Maybe next year.â
âNext year?!â He asked in an instant panic.
âYeah. Itâll be better. Weâll just make sure we get to be partners next time.â
âYouâd want to be partners with me?â He asked genuinely surprised, âI thought you were going to have a boyfriend by next year. Whoever this secret guy is that you like probably likes you back. If youâre dating then heâll want to be your partner and Iâll get stuck with someone else.â
âWell, do you?â You asked grabbing a piece of bacon from his plate.
âDo I what?â
You looked across the table where Hoseok and Kihyun had passed out on one another, their food left almost completely untouched except for a french fry hanging from Kyihuns mouth.
âDo you like me back?â You asked.
âYeah of course I like you back I-â his eyes went wide when he realized that you meant. âMe? Iâm the guy youâre into?â
âThe one and only.â You were sure youâd never seen his dimple get so deep he was smiling so big.
âI want to kiss you.â He said, eyes sparkling.
âWait, thereâs something I want to tell you first.â You felt nervous, but telling him about Changkyun seemed like the right thing to do. If you were really starting this you wanted to start it the right way. âKyun and I wereâŚâ
âI know.â His smile dropped slightly but he shrugged, âIâve known for awhile, you guys were pretty obvious.â
âWhy didnât you say anything?â You asked grabbing his hand beneath the table subconsciously.
âI wanted you to want to tell me. I wanted you to be happy. It was hard being around you two, poorly hiding flirtatious looks.â
âIâm so dumb. Iâm so sorry.â You whispered as you thought back at the last few months realizing Jooheon had almost never spent time with you and Changkyun together.
âKyun figured it out. He asked me the other night and I told him the truth. That Iâm in love with you.â
Your eyebrows shot up but you werenât sure you were entirely surprised. âHoneyâŚâ
âKyun told me to ask you out, he said you were⌠that you might⌠maybe...possibly.â
âIâm in love with you too.â You laughed, ending his small suffering of trying to avoid asking you if you loved him back. âI think I was in some denial but Kyun showed me the light.â
âHe did?â Jooheon seemed genuinely shocked when you nodded, âwell what do you know, Satan himself thinks we should be together.â
âWho are we to deny him?â With a small smile you leaned over and pressed a kiss against his dimpled cheek.
He covered his face with his hand shyly. âAish, not in front of everyone!â
You laughed at the cute way he blushed, âYouâre the one who wanted to kiss me!â
âStill do...â he grinned and lifted his hand to the back of your neck pulling you in for a sweet first kiss.

Beca walked into her apartment smiling like she had for the past couple of weeks. It was really starting to freak Fat Amy out âSeriously Beca what is wrong with you?â She asked sitting up, Beca frowned at Amy âWhat are you talking about?â Fat Amy rolled her eyes âYou seem so happy all the time, youâre even smiling, are you feeling okay?â Beca scowled at this âSee thatâs my scrappy little friend Iâve grown to loveâ she added.
âSorry I forgot happiness was a crimeâ Beca scowled, she couldnât however keep the smile off her face for long. Fat Amy looked at her curiously. âShit I get it now!â She yelped causing Beca to wince at the volume âDo you love them?â Fat Amy asked curiously.
Beca immediately flushed red at the question âAmy for the last time Chloe and I arenât together!â She sighed out as Fat Amyâs grin widened. âI never mentioned their name ya knowâ Beca cursed internally.
Maybe sheâd been crushing on Chloe for a long time. And maybe she was so happy to be home lately because it meant spending time with her favourite person. And maybe just maybe the fact that Chloe and Beca had recently begun spooning in bed due to the cold weather, further contributed to Becas upbeat mood.
âI... I donât know what youâre insinuating but stop itâ Beca spluttered as Amyâs shit eating grin remained. âBeca loves Chloe! Beca loves Chloe! Chloe and Beca sitting in a tree K-I-S-S-I-N-G!â The door began to open and Beca kicked Amy in the shin, quickly silencing her.
Chloeâs smile was the first thing Beca saw and she melted slightly âIâm going to tell herâ Fat Amy mouthed and Beca went into to full blown panic mode. Her eyes flew wide open and she stopped breathing.
Chloe glanced over to her friends âBecs are you okay?â She asked the younger girl. âMe? Iâm fineâ Beca squeaked out sounding similar to Ross from friends. Chloe frowned before taking her coat off, Beca took this chance to glare at Amy and mouth âdonât you dareâ Chloe turned and Beca smiled widely at her.
âOkay, now I know somethingâs up, why are you doing that?â Chloe questioned, her eyes flicking from Beca to Fat Amy and back again. âDoing what?â Beca said entirely too defensively âSmiling like thatâ Beca relaxed her face. âWhat Iâm not allowed to smile now?â She laughed awkwardly âNot like that no, itâs creepyâ Fat Amy couldnât help the laugh that escaped her lips.
Chloe turned and focussed on Amy âWhat were you two up to before I came in?â She asked the Australian as panic set in her eyes âUmmm... uhhhhhhhhhhâ Beca quickly jumped in âFat Amy and Bumper broke up!â Beca yelled out the first thing that came into her head.
Chloeâs mouth dropped open, Beca mouthed a âsorryâ over Chloeâs shoulder as Chloe leant down to hug Amy. âAmy Iâm so sorry, are you okay?â âYou owe me oneâ Amy mouthed over Chloeâs shoulder, whilst Chloe was still hugging her and Beca nodded a thank you to her.
âMe? Iâm good, you should see Bumper though, like a koala thatâs had its nards bitten offâ Chloe pulled back and shared a confused look with Beca. âOkaaaaaay... Well then how about a girls night? We can go out and drink until we black out!â Chloe exclaimed enthusiastically.
Beca groaned âFuck yeah! I havenât been out in sooooo long!â Fat Amy shouted. âYou literally went out three night agoâ Beca reminded her âYeah, practically a lifetime agoâ Fat Amy said matter of factly. âOooh! Iâll put it in the Bellas chat and see if anyone else wants to come!â Chloe quickly sent a message into the chat before going to have a shower.
âThat was closeâ Beca breathed out âWhy didnât you just tell her?â Beca laughed at the mere suggestion âYou know why Amy, a girl like her would never go out with someone like meâ Amy frowned at this, she was 110% sure that the ginger had a crush on Beca. âI think she would, I mean she flirts with you enoughâ she shrugged back.
Beca sighed, this was true but Chloe was just a flirt. She flirted with every single Bella, it wasnât like Beca was given any special treatment. âBeca sweetie?â Chloe called from inside the bathroom, Becas cheeks grew rosy at the pet name Chloe had started a couple of weeks ago.
âYeah?â She called back âCan you go to the shop and get us some alcohol pretty pleaseâ Beca groaned loudly âWhy me?â âBecause I take forever to get ready and you donât take long to get ready because youâre so naturally prettyâ Beca felt her blush deepen âFine but you know you look gorgeous 24/7â Beca called back, throwing her jacket on.
Fat Amy made whipping noises and Beca rolled her eyes âDo you want me to get you anything or not?â Fat Amy nodded âBottle of wine and a bottle of vodkaâ Beca nodded back, not bothering to ask Chloe what she wanted, she already knew.
Beca checked the group chat as she walked to the shop. So far Emily said she was in as were Flo and Aubrey. Beca picked up multiple bottles of wine along with vodka and coke and began to walk back to the apartment, thankful for living close to it. She set the alcohol down before jumping in the shower and getting ready herself.
Beca lay on her and Chloeâs shared bed as the other two girls finished getting ready, it turns out most of the Bellas could make it. Beca got up as she heard the first person knocking on the door and let in an excited looking Emily who immediately hugged her âHey Emâ Beca said wriggling out of her grasp.
âThe others are finishing getting ready, want a drink?â She led her to get a drink and soon after Amy joined them, half a bottle of wine in her hand âStarted early I seeâ Beca noted âHey legacyâ Fat Amy said chugging the wine âWhen are the adults joining?â
Half an hour later and the Bellas were in the crammed apartment. Most had brought a drink with them and they were all drinking quickly, much like they had done during college. âLetâs play a game!â Fat Amy announced âOooh yay! I love games!â Emily said enthusiastically as Amy rolled her eyes âIâm not talking about monopoly legacy, how about...â she seemed to ponder it for a second âMr and Mrs?â
There were a couple of murmurs and nods of agreement âCool so Chloe and Beca letâs goâ Beca glared at Amy as she fetched the two whiteboards and pens off the fridge. âSo every time you get it right we all have to drink, every time you get it wrong you two drink got it?â Chloe nodded enthusiastically.
âFirst question, what is Chloeâs worst habit?â Beca thought for a second before scrawling down an answer as Chloe did the same. Beca showed her answer âShe hogs the covers at nightâ Chloe smiled as she turned her board around âStealing the quiltâ it read. The two girls high fived as everyone else drank.
The next round - Becas pet peeve revealed matching answers also âPeople getting in her personal spaceâ. âShe doesnât seem to mind it when itâs Chloe thoughâ Cynthia Rose mumbled as Chloe rested her head on Becas shoulder and she went bright red.
âChloeâs best featureâ Beca thought about this, Chloe had a million things about her that could be classed as her best feature. âHurry up Beca!â One of the girls called, pulling her out of her trance as she shot them the finger. She quickly wrote down her answer.
âOkay Chloe what did you put?â Chloe showed her board âMy eyes?â They all looked at Beca expectantly. She gulped and turned her board around to show the one word sheâd written âEverything.â Becas eyes stayed glued to the floor, âAwwwwâ she heard Chloe sigh as she slipped her hand into Becas.
âThatâs so gay!â Cynthia Rose yelled as the rest of the girls laughed. âDonât be mean! Sheâs cuteâ Chloe defended Beca, kissing her quickly on the cheek, only contributing to Becas blush. âShots?â Fat Amy suggested to a roar of approval from the other girls.
Fat Amy lead the Bellas to the kitchen area to line up shots, Beca remained where she was still extremely embarrassed. Why had she written that? Idiot. âHey?â Beca looked up at Chloeâs soft tone âI think everything about you is pretty perfect tooâ a small smile appeared on Becas lips. âNow come on letâs get drunk!â
Shortly after the girls arrived at a club and some of the girls -Flo, Jessica and Ashley- were already pretty drunk but Emily was by far the least sober. She had only just turned 21 and the excitement of drinking and clubbing was almost too much for her.
Beca strode up to the much taller girl, a glass of water in her hand âHey Em, drink thisâ Emily smiled widely and began to drink the drink, thinking it was alcohol. âThis tastes like waterâ she commented after downing half the drink.
Beca laughed âIt is, you need to slow down okay?â Emily pulled her into a hug and Beca patted her back clumsily âYouâre Aca-awesome Beca! Thanks for always looking after me!â Beca shrugged, she normally wasnât one to look after people but Emily was like a little kid she and Chloe had somehow adopted. She smiled at the thought of one day having real kids with Chloe before shaking the thoughts free from her head.
She smiled at Emily before turning and looking for Chloe, she wasnât hard to spot with the gorgeous signature hair colour. Beca went to join her but was stopped by Amy âShawshank, hows it hanging?â Fat Amy had drunk at least twice as much as any other Bella yet was still only tipsy.
âYeah itâs not horrible actuallyâ she confessed âYou spoken to Chloe yet?â She asked, wiggling her eyebrows suggestively âWhat? No!â She yelled âWell hereâs your chanceâ Beca glanced round to see Chloe bounding over towards her. Her face immediately split into the smile that only Chloe could coax out of her.
Chloe pulled Beca into a hug before putting her arms around her neck and dancing with her. Becas breath caught in her throat and her heart skipped a beat, Chloe was dancing with her tonight of all nights!
Beca cautiously moved her hands to Chloeâs hips as Chloe leant in and her lips brushed against Becas ear. One of Chloeâs hands snaked up to cup Becas cheek, Becas eyes immediately finding Chloeâs bright blue ones. She inadvertently licked her lips and glanced down at Chloeâs lips before her eyes returned to Chloeâs.
Holy shit was Chloe leaning in? Becas eyes fluttered shut the second Chloeâs soft lips touched her own, she pulled Chloe in closer as the pair shared a slow, soft kiss. Altogether too quickly for Becas liking, Chloe pulled away. Becas eyes opened and she looked up breathlessly at her best friend.
âThanks there was a creepy dude and I told him I was with youâ Chloe mumbled. Beca felt her heart sink but she nodded back, trying not to let her true feelings show before subtly glancing around and searching the crowd for the threat.
Chloe pulled herself slightly out of Becas grip âAnyway Aubrey will be wondering where I am, you coming?â She asked sweetly. âNah Iâm goodâ Beca managed before Chloe kissed her cheek and walked off in search of Aubrey. Beca stood there on her own, her feelings swirling around inside her before deciding to go get something strong to drink.
She turned around to go to the bar âHey dyke, go kiss your girlfriend again it was hot!â Some douchebag frat bro leaning down against the bar said as soon as she turned around. Beca didnât know what came over her but her hand balled into a fist and she let it fly, punching him square in the face.
He recoiled in pain as Beca shook her own hand in pain. âOut!â One of the barstaff yelled before signalling security. Beca raised her hands in surrender and skulked off to the exit.
Crouching down in the alleyway, she let the tears come out. Yes her hand hurt and yes she was annoyed for getting kicked out of the bar, but most of all she was sad about Chloe. Devastated really. For a second there she thought Chloe was kissing her. That she might actually have a chance with her. She was so fucking stupid!
She wasnât sure how long she was there before she heard Chloeâs bubbly laughter and Aubreyâs sharper one. She sniffed and dried her eyes, quickly standing up âHey Becs!â Chloe took one look at Beca and knew something was wrong. âBree, Iâll be in in a minuteâ Aubrey shrugged and left the pair alone.
âWhat are you doing outside alone?â She questioned, walking closer to her best friend. Beca shrugged âI may or may not have got chucked outâ Chloeâs eyes flew open in shock âHow did you manage that?â Beca laughed humourlessly âI punched a guyâ Chloeâs mouth dropped open âAgain? Beca what have I told you about punching guys?â Beca laughed at this âHe was a dickâ she shrugged again.
âAre you okay?â Beca nodded âMy hand hurts a bit but Iâm fineâ Chloe quickly picked up Becas hand. âShit Beca thatâs bruising and swelling already, it might be brokenâ Beca shrugged once again. âI should get you homeâ she murmured âNo donât ruin your night out for meâ Beca protested.
âI was going to go home anyway, Em needs to be taken home and I thought she could crash at oursâ Beca nodded âOkay thenâ Chloe smiled widely and kissed Becas cheek. âIâll go grab her, be two minutes, you stay hereâ the brunette nodded in agreement and waited for Chloe.
About ten minutes later the door swung open and Chloe staggered out, propping a very drunk Emily up, Beca immediately rushed over to help Chloe keep the younger girl upright. âBeca!â Emily exclaimed loudly âCome on kid letâs get you homeâ Beca sighed.
The girls managed to get a taxi relatively quickly and bundled inside, Emily propped up in the middle of them. Emily put one arm around each of them âIâm so lucky to have you guys as my aca-momsâ Tears slowly trailed down Emilyâs cheeks and Beca looked over to Chloe panicking slightly, she really didnât know how to handle tears.
âHey Emily weâll always be here for you, weâre family nowâ Chloe said sweetly, this made Emily cry even more âYou guys are the bestâ she sniffed slightly before leaning her head on Beca. Becas eyes became wide with panic, seeing this Chloe gently reached over and guided Emilyâs head to rest on Chloeâs shoulder instead.
Emily was flat out asleep by the time the taxi stopped at their little flat. The girls just about managed to wake the youngest girl up and half dragged half carried her up the stairs before plonking her on the makeshift bed on the floor. She was out like a light.
The two best friends laughed at Emilyâs state before deciding to go to bed. âBeca?â Chloe called as Beca looked up from a drooling Emily. âYeah?â âCan you help me with my zip?â She asked innocently, Beca nodded and tried to undo her zipper. Her hands shook with nerves and she cursed herself internally.
She eventually got there âGod youâd make a shit lesbian! Itâd take you about 3 years to undress a womanâ Beca bristled at this âIâd make a great lesbian!â She shot back as Chloe arched an eyebrow. âWell youâre a pretty good kisser I suppose so youâd have that going for youâ Beca smiled at this.
âPretty good?â Beca cocked an eyebrow at Chloe, a cocky grin emerging on her face. âWell I didnât have long enough to properly assess you so Iâd have to stick with pretty goodâ Beca scoffed at this. âThat was your fault, you pulled away! And Iâll have you know that Iâm a great kisser!â Chloe sucked in a deep breath âProve itâ
Beca didnât give herself enough time to even think about it, knowing that sheâd talk herself out of it if she did. Grabbing her firmly by the waist, Beca pulled her closer and kissed her. Chloeâs hands shot up, one resting on Becas neck and the other tangling in her hair.
The kiss remained at a soft, slow pace for a while, both of the girls enjoying the intimacy of the moment. It was Chloe who grew impatient, wanting more from the kiss, she tentatively brushed her tongue against Becas bottom lip. Beca smiled slightly before parting her lips and sliding her tongue into Chloeâs mouth.
Chloe moaned - yes actually moaned - into Becas mouth, Beca couldnât help but smirk at this as she kissed Chloe with a renewed passion. She was totally in control of the kiss, in control of Chloe and she loved it.
One of Becas hands moved down to rest on Chloeâs ass and she squeezed it, causing a sharp intake of breath from Chloe. Beca didnât know where her new confidence had come from all of a sudden, but could tell that Chloe was enjoying it.
Beca walked Chloe backwards until Chloeâs legs hit the mattress of their shared bed. Beca pushed her onto it and sat in the girls lap, straddling her before kissing her deeply.
Emily made a noise from behind the pair causing Beca to break away and glance at the still sleeping girl before she realised what was happening. She grinned down at Chloe and stood up leaving the older girl staring at her from her position sat on their bed.
âBetter than pretty good huh?â Beca smirked as Chloe nodded mutely. Beca could see her swallowing before saying anything âYeah, that was... amazingâ The smirk remained on Becas face. âYeah it wasâ
Chloeâs eyes raked all over Becas body âI take it back, youâd be a great lesbianâ Beca was oddly proud of this statement âI knowâ Chloe looked up at her with hooded eyes, darker than Beca had ever seen her usually bright blue eyes.
âIf you think Iâm a good kisser, you should see what else Iâm good atâ Beca said flirtily âShow meâ Chloe whispered before reaching out and pulling Beca back into her lap for another passionate kiss.

late night gaming (f)
Pairing: Taehyung X Reader
Summary: Taehyungâs been your best friend since forever. This was just meant to be another night in hanging out but, as fate would have it, it was not.
Parts: One
Genre: Fluff
Warnings: N/A
Notes: Not as old but still old // requested // tell me what you thought?
Honestly, you sometimes wondered how he did it. You had texted him a simple "I have food" and he left you on read, which, in this situation, wasn't uncommon and showed up at your apartment in five minutes flat. He had a key to your place, one too many late nights had led to this, not that you minded. He was always more than welcomed.
However, you hadn't been expecting him so soon and so suddenly and you were sitting in an oversized black t-shirt of his that hung off one shoulder, hair tied up in a messy bun atop your head when your front door swung open. He shouted your name loudly and set his old, once white bag on your counter, that spilled its contents everywhere. A load of junk food, basically.
Due to the volume of your music through your earphones, you had failed to hear his loud entrance.
Your room was dark; you had your curtains pulled tightly closed with all the lights turned off. Your TV was the only light source (that was displaying a game in which you were winning), leaving you surrounded in darkness, music and empty crisp packets. In a final flurry of vigorous key-clicking, you won your game and just in time, too because Kim Taehyung had just burst through your door, letting the light from your hall spill inside your room. You could almost picture your entire room hissing at the sudden exposure.
You shrieked, flinging your controller at him out of instinct. Luckily, your throw had been heavily miscalculated and the game piece fell at his feet, barely grazing his toes.
His boxy smile was replaced by an exaggerated frown at your reaction and he dropped his once wide open arms by his sides. "Hello to you too" was all he said in a monotone voice. Your heart was practically already out of your chest, so his rare sarcastic comment did little to quench your sense of vengeance. "I'll get him back later" you thought, patting the empty spot next to you, inviting him to sit down.
He kicked off his sneakers lazily and grabbed another controller that was on your unmade bed. Sitting next to you, he rummaged through the empty crisp packets to find one that wasn't empty. Again, he turned to face you with an unamused expression.
"You said and I quote 'I have food'"
You hummed in agreement. "It got you to come over, right?" You replied, playing along. You knew fully well he never came to your house empty handed. He grumbled playfully at you, getting up from his space on the floor and retrieving his bag full of literal trash. You pretended to not notice how he had stuffed comfy clothes at the bottom of the bag, clearly intending to spend the night. Again, you didn't mind and he was always welcomed.
After a few rounds of you royally kicking his ass at his preferred game, he huffed. "Okay, that was fun and everything-" he started and you stiffled a laugh, that did not go by unnoticed. He glared at you through stray strands of messy hair before continuing. "but how about we watch a movie instead?" You rolled your eyes at his childishness over a game, but nodded all the same. "But, I get to pick" you bargained, emphasizing that it was your turn to choose a film.
He groaned loudly, knowing exactly what genre you'd pick but agreed. He grabbed his bag and stomped to your bathroom. You knew why, but decided to play with him a little, considering he had scared you by bursting into your room like that.
"Ummm, what are you doing?" You asked bluntly. He swished around quickly as blood rushed to his cheeks. He cleared his throat quietly so you wouldn't hear it, coming up with a smooth response. "Getting ready to share a bed" he grinned at you with fake confidence you saw right through before he shut the bathroom door.
You chuckled to yourself as you hastily threw away the crisp packets and set up your bed for movie hour. In short, that meant food, water and the laptop charger because no one was moving until it was done. Much to Tae's dismay, he was right and you picked a horror movie and the plot conveniently put the main characters in the same situation you two were in; best friends spending the night together.
You felt a little pang in your chest because it wasn't news to you that you definitely saw Tae as more than a friend, but wiped your face clear of any hints towards this as soon as you heard him open the bathroom door. He was wearing a hoodie that was a little larger on him and lazy sweatpants that had you silently wondering how he looked good in everything, even trashy, homeless clothing like this.
You shook your head a little to clear it before jumping in your bed. He joined you soon after, the two of you squashed up on a single bed. You pulled your laptop to your lap as you both had long ago agreed that it was better for viewing films together. Usually, you had movie nights in your living room, so all this was somewhat new to you. Well... except the set up. You need your water, food and laptop charger to survive in general.
The movie started and you naturally dropped your head on his shoulder, your hair tickling his neck lightly and his arm circled your shoulder instinctively, bringing you closer. You knew you were supposed to focus on the movie but how could you? It wasn't as if he hadn't held you before, but this time, your mind was flooded with him and thoughts of him. You bit your lip for lacking in courage and failing to tell him how you actually felt. You didn't want to ruin this long friendship you two had maintained for such a long time.
Little did you know that he had similar thoughts sprinting through his brain as well. His breath shouldn't have hitched when you leaned against him, but it did, the same way you weren't meant to gain goosebumps on your skin just from a brush of his... but you did. He found it rather hard to act natural now that you were pulled even closer. He may have seemed calm on the outside -Blank Tae was no joke- but on the inside, it was like a thousand warning lights had gone off, all indicating the same thing. He tried to act even more nonchalant by reaching into his bag and pulling out a long forgotten lollipop.
However, Tae was more vocal with his feelings. You knew this, too. Maybe that was the issue? In your mind, if he really did reciprocate those feelings, he would have long ago told you. So you gave up thinking he did. But, as luck would have it, you were wrong.
Before alcohol, there was sleep deprivation. Making you giggly and blabbering on endlessly without a thought. That was his ultimate undoing. The movie that was meant to scare you had you in fits of laughter, making jokes about it every second, unable to take anything seriously.
So when the two main characters professed their undying love for each other, you just had to act it out. It wasn't meant to go this far, neither of you had planned it. You were just messing around. The idea was to make it look like you were kissing- with a lot of exaggeration. The issue was that when you were this close, neither of you had much self control. You had thrown your arms around his neck and started saying a bunch of things related to the movie to add to the "cinematic" experience you were sharing. You weren't expecting him to circle your waist and pull you closer. But you certainly didn't expect to feel his lips on yours as if he couldn't contain himself- which he couldn't.
Your body froze momentarily in shock but you soon tuned in the situation. He was kissing you. And you weren't pulling away. Why would you? You had had the biggest crush on him since you met him, holding back from this would just deprive you of what you wanted so much.
You kissed back after a short delay on your side and you shifted so you had better access to his face. You felt his hands join behind your waist and he hovered over you, only slightly. The movie and laptop now long forgotten and, realistically, probably on the floor. You felt stray strands of his hair brushing your face due to your close proximity but all that just added to this experience. His lips were felt chapped but still tasted sweet like the lollipop he had held in between his teeth just moments before.
You found him addictive, the entire situation and you couldn't help but notice how his lips locked perfectly with yours, almost like they had been created for the purpose of the other.
You only stopped when your lungs urged you to take another breath of oxygen. He rested his forehead against yours as he desperately tried to force air back into his system. Realization hit him faster than it hit you and blood rose to paint his cheeks once more. His eyes widened a little and he looked away from embarrassment, trying to get off the mattress.
Your hand reached out to grab him before your brain even commanded it to and he followed your grasp with his eyes. "I'm sorry" he let it out as if he had been holding it in the second your lips joined.
Your eyebrows knitted in confusion. "Why the hell are you apologizing?" You chuckled lightly, pulling him hard enough so he was sitting back down. He looked at a loss for words, a state you had never seen him in and took a deep breath. "It's just... I like you. B-but not like... like as a friend I mean I like you as something a little more- I mean, a lot more, I like you a lot and I have since the day I saw you and I should have told you-" his hurried confession was hushed by your own quick words.
"I like you, too"
He looked at you in disbelief, jaw slack and eyes as wide as saucers with the initial shock but then sealed his mouth and blinked a few times.
"What now?"
You rolled your eyes playfully and punched his arm lightly. "You're supposed to ask me out, dumbass"
"Oh, right- right" Perhaps, you were enjoying his flustered state a tad too much but that was simply because Taehyung never really lost his words. He always had a smooth response as you had seen him demonstrate over the period of time you had known him for. Somehow, the thought that you had broken that caused a smile to surface.
He cleared his throat dramatically, going back to his carefree spirit. "Dear, hopefully-ex-best friend." You covered your mouth with your hand at his playfulness. "Would you like to stop being my best friend and become my girlfriend?" You weren't able to contain your giggles now but you intertwined your fingers with his and gave his hand a light squeeze so he would know.
"Nothing would make me happier" you whispered low enough for him to hear. Though the room was still dark, you could see and feel his famous box smile spread over his attractive features at your words.
"Celebration pizza?" He questioned, raising an eyebrow.
You nodded eagerly. "Celebration pizza."
.....at 1am.
