Relationship Alphabet
A - Attitude
Who often has the worst Attitude ?
Well, you obviously. Most of the time because you are hungry or you and Melo just got out of an argument. Melo usually fucks the attitude out of you anywhere, anytime tho.
B - Baby
Who wants Babies the most - first ?
Melo. He often jokes about having kids or when you are having sex he would whisper in your ear  “You trynna have my babies?” or  “You boutta have my babies ” when he nuts in you. He says that he wants 3 or more. You only want 2. You arent rushing into it.
C - Crying 
Who Cries the most in the relationship ?
You. You often cry alone when you miss Melo when he is at away games for so long. Or when your BP triggers, Melo would comfort you. When watching sad movies, or when someone you love dies. Tears of joys appear here and there. Or when you get into arguments and Melo says something wrong or disrespectful out of madness.
D - Dates 
Who has the best Date spots ?
Melo. He would often take you to fancy restaurants in L.A or Miami, or wherever you guys went. Or take you shopping at an expensive place. He would do dates at home like watching movies, have you cook dinner because he cant cook for shit, or he would have a bath waiting on you. 
E - Eat 
Who Eats the most ?   
You. You know damn well you cant survive without food. Its the 2nd best thing that has ever happened to you besides life and Melo. Cant even survive a night. If you would wake up in the middle of the night and get hungry and go to kitchen and try to sneak some food without waking Melo up, he would hear it and go to the kitchen and scare you, picking you up over his shoulder with one arm, and with the other putting the food away carrying you back to the bed because its a little to early in the morning to be eating. 
F - Freak 
Who is the Freakiest ?  
Both of you. You being the only girl that can fuck Melo like you do, and being the only girl Melo is sexually, physically, and mentally attracted to no other girl can do it like you.10/10 in bed. Now Melo on the other hand is a demon in bed. His strokes, hitting your G - Spot constantly with you feeling it in your guts. His 9 inch is almost  always on hard when he is around you. And his tongue is crazy, going in and out and on the pearl AT THE SAME TIME. Crazy right. Spelling his name out on you. He loves when you scratch his back up or give him hickeys everywhere. 10000/10. Makeup sex is the best. 
G - Games 
Who wins the most games ?  
Melo. He would always dare you to a game of Call of Duty or Fortnite to see who would win first. And he would always win. When you would play a game of Uno you would often win and he would be mad the rest of the day due to his competitiveness. But any other game he would win.
H - Happy
Who is the Happiest in the relationship ?  
Both of you. You are always happy when you guys are around each other. Even when you guys just got done arguing you are still happy that he is in your presence. Melo on the other hand is always happy with you around him, he loves to cuddle with you. Its one of his favorite thing to do. He just loves that you are in his presence. You are his other half.
I - Irreplaceable
Who is the most Irreplaceable ?  
You would say Melo but Melo would say you. Melo knows how to deal with you more than anyone else does. He knows all your spots and what you like and dont like. He notices all of your flaws and sees the good and beautiful in them. He knows your body, mind, and soul. No man has a better or brighter or bigger smile than him. He always brightens the mood. You on the other hand are different. A big beautiful smile. You know how to deal with Melo when he is sad, looses a game. You can tell when he is lying or telling the truth just by looking through his eyes. You know how to make him happy. You are the best he has ever had.
J - Jaded 
Who gets the most Jaded after doing something ?
Melo. He usually gets really bored after sitting in the house all day. He really wants to leave the house and do something fun but usually its night time and you would be taking a nap or would be sleep. 
K - Kisses
Who gives the most kisses?
Melo. He is always so clingy and that comes with all the kisses in the world. He kisses you all over your face in your sleep, even when you are sleep he gives you kisses. He loves to kiss all over your body.
L - Love
Who fell in love the fastest?
Melo. He had always had a crush on you and everyone knew you were the one for him. You just didn’t know it until you two started dating. He’s always making sure you are good. He loves your hugs. He was the first one to say “I love you”. He want kids you to have all 10 of his kids.
M - Motivation
Who gives the most motivation?
You. When melo is going to a game and is not having a good feeling about it you motivate him to push through it and win for you. 9/10 he will win or get a lot of points for you.
N - Night Owl
Who is more of a Night Owl?
Both of you. Sometimes when his ADHD is on 10 you guys stay up and listen to music, play games, go on ig live, or just fuck for 7 hours straight. Sometimes you have to tell him to got to sleep or put him to sleep (😏) because he has a game tomorrow and needs all the rest and energy he can get. It also the same for you.
O - Oral Sex
Who gives Oral Sex the most?
Melo. Trust me, you give him head a lot and it’s amazing, 10/10. But melo loves giving you head. He loves to spell his name out on you. Loves to see the faces to make you scream and shout. Loves sharing your cream with you (🥲). He loves to climb under the blanket while you are sleep for some breakfast in bed. Maybe even dinner. His lips make it even better. So glad he don’t got them white genes in his lips (😋😭).
P - Perfect
Whos perfect?
Obviously, no ones perfect but God (🙏🏾). But in your eyes no one else is better for you except melo. You couldnt imagine living life without him. Cant imagine what anyones elses kids would look like with you but. No relationship is perfect. Melo sees you as perfect. Your body. Your style. Your personality. He absolutely loves your touch. He loves touch but for you loving your touch is an understatement. He couldnt imagine his kids with anyone else but you. Cant imagine getting married with anyone else. When you guys get into arguments and sleep in seperate rooms. You barely get sleep because all you can think about is each other. How perfect you guys are for one another.
Q - Q? (Cant find a word, Tell me one and ill edit it.)
R - Relate
What traits do you guys have a like each other?
A lot. Both of your favorite food is Chicken tacos. You both love a good game of Uno. You both love sex. Duhh. Both of you guy’s love language is touch. Love playing fortnite together. Love listening to music and taking drives together. Both love lil uzi (we pretending yall💀). Just in general you guys are very alike.
S - Sex
(No question for this one lol. Y’all already know how we is round hea nahhmeannn😭)
The sex. Omgggg. The first time you and melo had sex was. So amazing. Can’t ever forget that moment. Melo is always so horny. Morning sex is the best. Sometimes a little top at the red light can turn into a few rounds in back of the McDonalds parking lot. Lucky enough all his windows tinted as hell. Or in the Victoria’s Secret fitting rooms. You guys could be listening to Chris Brown and he would really take you down, fuck you back to sleep, switch up the tempo, or make you wet the bed (i’m laughing hard ash). The hickeys. The high sex. Drunk sex (drunnnnkkk in lovvveee). Car sex. Balcony sex. All over the house sex ( i got bars.) Mad sex and Make up sex. I could go on. Sex with me so amazinggggg. (i was listening to this song while writing this one💀😫😫😫)
T - Trips
Who likes taking trips internationally?
Melo. He love to take you and a yearly or even monthly vacay. Just you and him. Turks and Caicos. Bora Bora. Jamaica. Iceland. Japan. Africa. Anywhere where you can get away from the world. The different places. The hotels. Being able to fuck anywhere and everywhere. The pools. The different air. (united states ait is so boring). The new food. The animals. You guys love the new places. He loves to see you happy and with a smile on your face.
U - U (Cant find a word, Tell me one and ill edit it.)
V - V (Cant find a word, Tell me one and ill edit it again.)
W - Right the Wrongs
Who rights their wrongs after an argument?
Usually it would be you first. If you said something that was out of pocket or melo didnt like you woukd quickly apologize. He would forgive you and still cuddle and kiss you and stuff because thats what he does. Tease you. But he would ignore you until he actually forgave you in his head. Melo would apologize and give you some bomb ass d for and apology. Or make that cute face that you can’t resist.
X - (Can’t find a word for X. Give me a suggestion and i will edit it)
Y - Young
Who acts like a Young ass child?
Both of you actually. That’s what makes you love each other the most. The laughs and jokes, the tv shows, everything you could think of. It’s nothing wrong with it at all. Y’all are always gonna bust a joke out at the right time. Maybe sometimes even the wrong time. (damn, double homicide). You guys love laughing with each other.
Z - ZZZ
Who has the worst sleeping habits?
Probably Melo. If you scooted over him even a little bit, he would probably scoot back closer to you or pull you back over to him. And the only con of that is he snores a lot. (Why this nigga snore with his mouth open?🤨💀). Sometimes if he was awake and you werent he would kiss all over you. He loves to lay on your 🍒.
Y’all welcome. I haven’t pose the one of these in a minute. This took me a whole month and a half. I’m tired as hell. 💀

Ushimairi P.1 | Chapter Seven
Tumblr media
Keito: ……
Well, it seems the woman with the straw doll is gone.
Tomoya: Yeah. I’m glad we were able to stay safe…
Kuro: Heeey, Hasumi-danna, Mashiro! I know ya gotta be ‘round here somewhere, so answer me!
Rei: If you give no response, we’ll leave you behind. We wouldn’t want that, so speak up, you two~
Keito: Hm… Those voices…...
Tomoya: Kiryuu-senpai and Sakuma-senpai. Oh, thank god, they came looking for us.
Over here! Hasumi-senpai and I are safe!
Huh—woah?
Kuro: Woah there, you’re loosin’ your footing. Ya hurt?
Tomoya: I’m fine. I just got a few bruises, but I’m fine But, a little while ago we saw a woman who was hammering a straw doll with nails.
Kuro: Ya what?
Tomoya: There was a woman dressed in white here, who looked like a demon! We both hid in the bushes, and avoided even breathing a word…
I should have used my phone to record it. But it was so sudden, and my phone fell too far away!
Ah, right. I have to go get it…
Hwhaaa! There’s a scratch on the screen?!
Crap~ I just bought it, too...
Rei: But you both returned unscathed though. That alone is fortuitous enough.
Everything with a physical form is destined to shatter eventually, but we can’t have your bodies and souls go through that just yet, can we?
Keito: Yeah. I’m glad it was nothing too serious.
In any case, I’m partly responsible for allowing us to film in an outdoor location. I’ll reflect deeply on this incident, and complete future work with proper safety in mind.
Tomoya: Yes… I’m really glad we didn’t get hurt.
But, it’s a shame that some things in this haunted place were real, and we couldn’t use them at all...
If I’d just been a little more patient, I’d have gotten to record the Visit of the Ox, yeah?
If I’d gotten it on camera, I would be able to hold my head up high and say my project was a success. It feels like I wasted a great opportunity...
Rei: Kukuku. You may say as such, but is that not simply the conscience of a project administrator?
There is the possibility that a different location had been deliberately presented so that visitors would avoid the curse of the Ox.
So, Mashiro-kun, I'm sure there is nothing to worry about with the quality of your film.
Tomoya: What do you mean? My phone fell, so I doubt I got a good recording...
Rei: Why, it's quite simple. If you slipped and fell while filming, and yet your phone remained intact, then you must have still been filming.
So while we may lack the video aspect, you recorded the audio, right?
From a production standpoint, the audio sufficiently conveys the dread experienced when the nails were hammered. The real thrill of horror comes when you don't reveal everything ♪
Kuro: If that’s the case, the content’s all good. I guess it was worth puttin’ on that Oxman getup.
I’m kinda embarrassed to be seen playin’ the Oxman, but it's alright.
I'm ‘boutta star in a horror show I’ve been followin’ for a while. I think my sister will love it ♪
Keito: Hm. I guess this turn of events paid off. It shows that we put effort into it, and the audience will understand that the woman in white isn’t just a setup.
With that, all we need to do is go home. Check to make sure we don’t forget anything, then we can head back as soon as possible.
Tomoya: You got it!
Wow, that was good~♪ All our hard work paid off after all!
When my plan first fell through, I got all choked up at that shock.
I just need to check if I dropped anything else, and our long day of filming will finally be over. We can go home and get some rest, and—
…...
Keito: What’s the matter, Mashiro? Don’t freeze up abruptly; you’ll scare me.
Did a bug land on your face or something? Hold still. I’ll get it off.
Tomoya: N-no! That’s not it, look over there!
Keito: What…? The white figure, it's—
Tomoya: She must have noticed us and followed us after all! The Visit of the Ox is a ritual meant to be done without any witnesses—
T-they’re trying to keep us in the dark, aren’t they!
If that thing catches up to us, we’ll be… I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry!
Keito: Shit, why is this even happening… Stay back, Mashiro! I��ll protect you!
Tomoya: B-but, what’re you…?
Keito: Ah. It’s just…
Tumblr media
There isn’t much I can do, but I’m desperate! So…!
Depart, all evildoers!
BEGONE! BEGOOOONE!
Rei: …Hasumi-kun.
Keito: Huh…? Hey, how come you’re so calm? Can’t you see that this is an emergency?
Rei: No no, you’ve got it all wrong. The fact is not me being calm, it’s that you allowed yourself to upsurge, Hasumi-kun.
I can’t help but wonder... Is this the woman in white you speak of?
Keito: W-what’s all this about…?
Kuro: Come on, did ya really let yourself get wrapped up in the mountain's atmosphere, Hasumi-Danna?
Kuro: Take a look behind the girl. Ya got too worked up to notice, but she’'s bein’ followed ‘round by a lotta people holdin’ cameras and mics.
Tomoya: Huh, is that why? I didn’t notice them because they’re all dressed in black!
Keito: Huh, what about the curse of the Ox…?
Rei: Hmm. This is an assumption, but my guess would be that they’re simply filming something horror related, just like we are.
Keito: Hmm…? So what you’re saying is you came over here because you heard our voices?
Tomoya: Oh, so that's what happened… I’m sorry for jumping to conclusions.
Oh wow, so you're filming something for your college club? Ahaha, that’s pretty much the same as us then…
Uh—You know about us? Yeah, that’s right. We’re idols—We came here for a project to check out some haunted locations but—
Rei: Kukuku. I never thought I’d see Hasumi-kun frightened enough to lose his head like that.
Tumblr media
Keito: ……
Rei: Oh, it seems you’re so embarrassed that you can’t even speak.
There there. Well, it’s something that’ll be broadcasted sooner rather than later. The more humiliation you experience now, the less pain you’ll feel later.
Keito: You can’t be serious, you plan to broadcast footage of that?!
Rei: Of course; I recorded it. I feel the content of this project will be enriched by it. The fake documentary has now gained a ‘proper’ ending.
Keito: You…! Earlier you said “the real thrill of horror comes when you don't reveal everything”, but it seems you’re just doing whatever you want.
Rei: Oh really, did I say that? You must pardon me. I’m quite old, so I can’t seem to remember that at all~
Anyhow, this is content deserving of the name Chilling Variety Show.
The elements of “Chilling” and “Variety Show” have been combined cleverly—this is a fruit of Mashiro-kun’s efforts, is it not?
Tomoya: Yes! Ehehe, but I’m not strong enough on my own. This was really only possible thanks to the help of you guys.
The people in the film circle said they’ll support me lots, too...♪
And I’m especially looking forward to Hasumi-senpai's next performance as Temple Boy Mr. K ♪
Keito: Tch…...
I’ve said it before, this is a one-time thing. I’m not doing this again!
Tomoya: I know I know. Thank you guys for all your hard work on this project ♪

Your Boyfriend’s Cute- Little Vlogs (pt.2)
a/n: I love the fact that this is already receiving support on tumblr and here, and I posted the first chapter like less than twenty four hours ago! it's giving me lots n lots of motivation to brainstorm the plot to this story. just so yk, it's boutta move FAST (aka: lots of timeskips).
chapter summary: Virgil and Roman go to Patton's house for the first time, and Virgil starts to realize why Roman has a crush on Logan. Also, Patton and Virgil film a video for Patton's channel.
--
Virgil exited the Hot Topic with an extremely positive attitude. He had hit send on a list of things he wanted Roman to get for him, and he was ready to meet Patton. The mall was an outdoor mall, so he quickly scanned the 'workers only' parking spots for Logan. He spotted him, in a dark blue t-shirt that read 'Eldenridge Bookshop' with a little book logo on it. Virgil caught himself admiring Logan's body and face from afar, before snapping out of his (slightly gay) daze. He waved, catching his attention. Logan smiled warmly, and Virgil crossed the parking lot.
"Hello Virgil," Logan held his hand out, and Virgil shook it lightly.
"Very professional," he teased, smiling to show that he was just playing. Roman was right. This man was definitely cute. Logan chuckled.
"Yeah, that's what Patton said," Logan opened the door to the passenger seat on his car, motioning for him to get in. Virgil climbed into the vehicle, the door closing behind him.
Logan walked around the back of the car, getting in on the drivers side. "Buckle your seatbelt, honey," Logan instructed, following the directions himself before starting the car. Virgil did as he said without question, willing himself to stop blushing at the casual use of the word 'honey'.
"How far do you live?"  Virgil questioned after a few moments of silence. Logan had pulled out of the parking spot, making his way to the exit of the outdoor mall.
"About ten minutes. Roman wanted to be there when you met Patton, but no doubt, we'll beat him there. Patton's waiting at home,so I'll just record it, yeah?"
Virgil nodded at Logan's words. He had a very caregivery tone, in a stern, but soft way. He could understand why Patton liked him as a caregiver, and why Roman had a crush on him. "Sounds good to me," Virgil smiled.
"So, how was work?" Logan turned onto the main road, tapping his finger against the steering wheel.
"Good, just another day of selling twenty one pilots merch to twelve year old wanna-be emos," Virgil shrugged, causing Logan to laugh lightly.
"I'm guess you used to be one of those emo kids when you were younger?"
"Bitch, I still am. The only difference is that I'm technically an adult."
"Language!" he scolded lightly, speaking in a playful tone.
There was a few beats of silence, Virgil taking the opportunity to look out the window and admire the beautiful weather. "Patton's very excited to see you, he has so many ideas for stuff to do with you."
Logan and Virgil continued on the conversation, distracting Virgil from his excitement for the time being. Suddenly, Logan turned into a neighborhood, and onto a small side street. The two-floored yellow house Virgil saw in many videos was at the end. There were flowers in the front yard. Patton sat on the front porch, and he jumped up when Logan entered the driveway.
"You stay here until I motion you out, I want to make sure I catch this on video," Logan put the car in park, pulling his phone out of his pocket and getting out of the car. Patton awkwardly stood by the door of his house, Logan holding up his phone. Virgil unbuckled, excitedly jumping out of the car when Logan made the motion.
Virgil almost tackled Patton to the ground when he hugged him, jumping into his arms. Right then was when Roman pulled into the driveway behind Logan's car. "I can't believe this, you're actually...here, i-it's crazy."
"I know kiddo, I'm happy to see you too."
Patton held Virgil in a tight hug for at least a minute straight, running his fingers through his hair. Patton was slightly chubby,wearing a very soft light blue sweater. Therefore, he was very cuddleable. Roman and Logan made sure not to interrupt their moment, not speaking until they finally pulled away.
"I'm so happy right now, you have no idea," Virgil smiled, turning and approaching Roman, hugging him.
"Yeah, and this little emo here doesn't get this excited unless he regresses. He tries to keep up his angsty  exterior, but he's really just soft."
Virgil playfully glared at him, pretending to be mad at him for the silly teasing. "Come inside," Patton was quick to open his door, welcoming the couple into his home.
"Like I say whenever we video chat, your house is nice as hell," Virgil admired the home.
"Yep. There's so many rooms that we have a normal bedroom, the little bedroom that you see in most of my videos, and a set of extra rooms. Seriously, this place is perfect," Logan sat down on the couch as Patton spoke. Patton disappeared, going up the stairs.
"Where's he going?" Roman pondered, sitting on the couch near Logan.
"Probably to grab the vlogging camera from the little bedroom," Logan replied as Virgil sat down next to his boyfriend. Virgil could've sworn he caught Logan's eyes lingering on Roman before he spoke again.
"Uh, Roman, how are you?" he stumbled upon his words lightly.
"Good," Roman smiled. Virgil saw Patton stop at the bottom of the steps, holding a small camera.
"Logan, is it okay if me and Virgil hang out upstairs? You guys can do whatever you want down here..find some common interests or something."
Logan gave Patton a look Virgil didn't get the chance to decode, automatically fixing his face when Roman looked at him. "That sounds good to me. I get that you guys have known each other forever, and I understand if you wanna spend some time alone," Roman smiled at Patton softly.
Patton came over, grabbing Virgil's hand and pulling him up. He didn't let go, leading him up the stairs. Neither of them said anything until they were in Patton's little room. "First of all," Patton closed the door behind him, moving to pull his tripod out of the corner of the room, "Your boyfriend is cute as hell. Like I knew that before but seeing him in person just confirmed it."
Virgil laughed, "We're all so gay, I swear to god. Your boyfriend is cute too, at least Roman thinks so."
"Roman's poly right? Logan and I are...kind of why I left Logan down there, he's lowkey been crushing on Roman since forever," Patton motioned Virgil over, patting a spot on the edge of the bed, facing the tripod he had set up. Virgil took his spot, watching Patton attach the camera to the setup.
"Yeah, Roman's polyamorous. And that's funny, because Roman has a crush on Logan too," Virgil revealed. The two of them looked at each other and did a fangirl-ish squeal that only best friends could successfully do in sync.
"So, what are we doing for the channel?" Virgil questioned, motioning towards the camera.
"I figured we could just talk about like, how we became friends and stuff. This how thing feels unreal, and I kinda want a video to look back on so I remember how I felt during all this."
Virgil quickly agreed, and without a word, Patton started the camera.
"Hey Kiddos, welcome to my channel: eat a second cookie! Today, I have my friend with me. I've talked about him on my channel before, but this is the first time I actually have him here in person. Please welcome, Virgil!" Patton spoke in an enthusiastic voice, motioning towards Virgil, who waved awkwardly. There was a beat of silence before Patton nudged him.
"Here's where you plug your tumblr and stuff," Patton instructed, breaking the silence.
"Oh," Virgil laughed at himself, "Uh, follow me at anxiousbabey on everything."
Just like that, the two filmed an unscripted video, talking about the first time they talked, telling quite a few stories. It all lead up to the end of the recording, where they talked about how they met.
"Now that we know we live so close, hopefully he'll be on my channel lots n lots. Right, Virge?"
Virgil giggled, nodding a bit. "I hope so! I'm really glad we realized this, I'm so happy y'all have absolutely no idea!"
"Well, I guess that's all for today kiddos! Bye princes, princesses, and enby royalty, please check out my tumblr and instagram, all under eat-a-second-cookie!" Patton held out the word 'cookie' so that his statement rhymed. He finished closing out the video, turning off the camera.
"Y'know, I've been waiting for the day we'd get to finally film a video together."
There was a second of silence before Virgil engulfed him into a hug. "I feel like my life was good before..and now it's perfect. I'm so glad this happened," Virgil mumbled.
"Let's go check on my nerd and your boyfriend," Patton caused Virgil to laugh, taking his hand softly and leading him down the stairs. Virgil didn't know why this act of affection made him blush, because he knew Patton was just generally affectionate, but his cheeks were definitely burning.
"Hey, Vee," Roman looked up from the laptop him and Logan were watching something on.
"Did you guys film anything?" Logan questioned softly, pressing the spacebar on the laptop and closing it.
"Yeah, just a video about like our friendship," Patton shrugged, taking his spot next to Logan. Logan automatically wrapped his arm around his shoulder.
"That's surely gonna be an adorable video," Logan praised, and Patton smiled lightly. "So, you guys are welcome to stay for dinner, or even spend the night if you want to."
Patton nodded in agreement and excitement with Logan's statement. "Ro!" Virgil tapped his shoulder lightly, tilting his head, "Stay pleasee?"
"Is that your little voice I hear?" Roman teased, causing Virgil to pout lightly, shaking his head.
"Awe! I think it is," Patton cooed, "But, can you guys stay, pleasee?"
"I don't know," Roman sighed, "Virgil has work tomorrow."
"Okay? And I can give him a ride in the morning, seriously, you're welcome to spend the night."
Virgil gave puppy dog eyes, pouting to convince his carer. "Stop with the pouty face, I was gonna say yes anyways," he sighed, causing Virgil and Patton to cheer.
That night was gonna be fun.
A/N: There's gonna be a timeskip, like a one-month type gap, where the four leave the awkward stage and they're all kind of close. I don't wanna write all that out and I WANNA GET TO THE GOOD PART.

Chapter 3: Down Down Down and the Flames Went Higher (#27)
Shockingly, no one gets into trouble for a good twenty-four hours. We must all be looking forward to the concert. 
Those of us who are going, at least. Though I’m sure Otoya appreciates the chance to run around in public spaces while everyone else is occupied.
I make my own lunch—by which I mean instant ramen—since Yuki’s busy getting ready for tonight. Now that I think about it, I guess I won’t be eating during intermission. Hopefully the food won’t be ice-cold by the time the concert’s over. Hopefully Kanagi actually leaves some for me, too.
The concert schedule is pinned to the bulletin board behind me. 6:00 start, 7:30 intermission, 8:00 second half start, end by 9:30. Cutting it a little close to nighttime, but Tamiko can refuse an encore if it’s a matter of life and death. And it’s not like she has to clean up for the next act.
A three-hour concert, huh? Let’s hope nobody gets bored. With the Super High School Level Country Music Artist heading it up, maybe that won’t be an issue.
That being said, there’s nothing new to fend off boredom in the meantime. But I manage. Before 6:00 arrives, I step into the auditorium. Might as well give the place a good look while the house lights are on.
I clear a few rows before I’m caught.
Tumblr media
“Hey, Kakumi!”
Tumblr media
“Ya ready and rarin’ to go?”
She takes a seat at the edge of the stage, her legs dangling.
Tumblr media
“Something like that. Can’t be as fired up as you are.”
She laughs.
Tumblr media
“Yea, that’s fair.”
Tumblr media
“So, everything’s good with you, then?”
Tumblr media
“Aw, I ain’t ‘boutta get nervous with this li’l crowd.”
Tumblr media
“Right.”
Tumblr media
“...That ain’t whatcha meant, was it?”
Tumblr media
“Not really.”
Tumblr media
“Well, people still been talkin’, but...”
Tumblr media
“That’s all it is. Talkin’. Arthur ain’t that kinda guy.”
The guy that can’t take anything seriously isn’t the kind of guy to cheat on his relationships. If you say so? Better than everyone’s feelings getting hurt, I guess. Maybe I should talk to Arthur myself... But he’s busy with backstage stuff, isn’t he? I won’t pester him.
Especially not right in front of Tamiko.
We wrap up the small talk, and I resume scouring the place. Everything seems normal. No tripwires, or suspicious holes in the wall, or bombs strapped to the undersides of the seats. That’s always good.
What else? Trying to pat everyone down as they come in would be excessive, partly because I don’t even know how you’re supposed to find stuff that way. I just try to get a good look at everyone as I welcome them in. No one seems overly shifty or has obvious knife-shaped bulges in their sleeves. 
I pick a good standing-room-only spot in the back just in time for the lights to go down.
Tumblr media
“All right, y’all! Let’s get this party started!”
I’m pretty sure she gets less of an answering cheer than she expected, but she launches into the first song regardless. “Muddy Creek, Muddy Boots.” Not her biggest hit, but big enough I know the chorus without having paid much attention to it.
From there we get into a variety of songs I do and don’t recognize. Some guitar solos, Tsunyasha zipping by to adjust chairs and such when Tamiko stops for a swig of water. No one back here has made any suspicious moves or noises. I’m not sure Yuki’s still awake, though.
I’m actually glad I have work to do. I’d get bored if I was just sitting listening to music. It’s always been more of a background kind of thing to me.
Then again, wish I didn’t have to worry about people murdering each other right in front of me.
Tumblr media
Or behind me. Who all didn’t show? Itsurou, Otoya, and Aki. I doubt Itsurou would get up to anything with such an obvious lack of alibi, and Otoya and Aki want to keep to themselves for the most part. I don’t think the money tempts them, not really. Haven’t seen it in their eyes, at least. I may not be the Super High School Level expert on reading people, but I know I can get that much.
Tamiko’s out of breath by the time the house lights come back on and make me squint.
Tumblr media
“All right, everybody! Let’s go an’ grab us somethin’ to eat.”
That’s all the prompting Kanagi needs. I can’t get out of her way fast enough. Maybe she’ll investigate the room in advance.
Tumblr media
“Doubt that’s her intention.”
The others leave at a more manageable pace, Arthur and Tsunyasha included. Only Tamiko is left after Yuki wanders into the hallway. She stays perched on the little stool up there for a minute.
Tumblr media
“Whew. Really need me a breather.”
Tumblr media
“I can imagine.”
Tumblr media
“Doing great so far, though.”
Tumblr media
“Thanks, hon!”
Tumblr media
“ ‘Fraid I ain’t gonna meet y’all in the coffee shop just yet. This string’s a little sketchier than I thought, so I’m gonna run ‘n' switch it out.“
Tumblr media
“Might lounge around my study hall the rest a’ the time instead, honestly.”
Tumblr media
“You’ve earned it. I’m sure someone can bring you food if you ask.”
Tumblr media
“Nah, I wouldn’t wanna spill it in there.”
Tumblr media
“Thanks for everythin’, though, Kakumi. I promise the second half of the concert’ll be just as good as the first.”
Tumblr media
“I don’t doubt it.”
With that, she steps outside, leaving me alone in the auditorium. Don’t think I could miss anyone coming back, so I might as well make sure the seats are still normal.
As I wander around, I can hear the hubbub cropping up next door. It’s definitely muffled, though. Still doesn’t sound like any kind of altercation from here. Probably just hollering about the food. Kinda wish that was me right now.
I can’t find anything weird in here. I zip backstage a few times to check it out, too, but there aren’t any good places for someone to hide. Nothing else particularly weird. 
No one comes back in until around 7:50. By then I’m already back at the main set of doors.
Tumblr media
“Kogamino.”
I nod back.
Tumblr media
“Finished eating already?”
Tumblr media
“Well, I wouldn’t want to be late.”
Tumblr media
“I don’t think you’re in much danger of that.”
He picks out his seat regardless. Guess he’s just going to sit there for ten minutes. Worse things he could be doing.
The door opens again.
Tumblr media
“I missed it!”
I step out of her way.
Tumblr media
“Missed what? The intermission? There’s a few minutes left if you want to grab something.”
Tumblr media
“I missed half the concert...”
Tumblr media
“Half of it’s still left. What were you doing?”
Tumblr media
“Napping.”
Tumblr media
“Ah. It happens.”
She stands awkwardly to the side, probably waiting to make sure she doesn’t take someone else’s spot. Arthur and Tsunyasha come in... and then everyone else at once. I stumble back.
Tumblr media
“Whoa! Try not to trample each other.”
Kanagi elbows whoever’s closest. Kaichi, apparently.
Tumblr media
“Like, seriously.”
Tumblr media
“What’s the hurry?”
Ichiriki sighs dramatically.
Tumblr media
“We were rushed back by la hermosa voz.”
Tumblr media
“Best to be in place lest the concert go long. I would so hate for anything to happen to one of you beauties.”
Tumblr media
“...”
With that, the rest of them take their seats. Or at least mill about the aisle a little before actually sitting down. I think we lost Yuki somewhere along the way. Probably decided to put up everything from intermission. The kitchen does close at nighttime, too.
Tamiko doesn’t come through the front doors, but the house lights dim nonetheless. Only moments later...
Tumblr media
“Alllll right~! We ready for the next round?”
Sounds like she got enough of a breather, finicky guitar string or otherwise. Presumably she fixed it, because her opener sounds fine. I wonder which song she’s reserving for the encore. Or is she planning an encore? I’m not sure what the standard is here.
The first song closes, and she ducks her head backstage as the applause dies down. After a brief chat I can’t hear, she soldiers back to her little stool with the same smile. No real problems, apparently. The background music starts up, and she sings.
She makes it to the first chorus before I hear crackling.
I take another look at the room, but nothing seems strange. Was that just the speakers? But it doesn’t seem to change with the music.
Then I hear a thump.
Tumblr media
“...”
I scan the audience, but the headcount is the same. Outside?
I take a sideways step towards the exit and grit my teeth. Do I leave my post? Or was that just something to distract me? 
But shouldn’t the concert be distraction enough? I’ll take the chance.
I crack the door open but don’t see anything. The crackling is louder. It sounds like some small things are still falling. With one last glance over my shoulder, I charge out. It’s warm, but nothing seems off...
...until I turn to see the coffee shop burning.

‘’NIGHT CONVO’’ – Meston.
LOC: preston’s apartment. @fckmonax
MONA
knocks on the door, super nervous but also excited
PRESTON
takes a deep breath before opening the door “You made it in time, dinners almost ready. Come in”
MONA
grins “Yeah, of course. This has been all I could think about literally since we planned it.” steps inside and kisses his cheek
PRESTON
pulls her in for a quick hug after she kisses him “You’re hype for a chicken salad?”
MONA
“I’m so hype for chicken salad.” lingers in the hug for a bit before heading towards the kitchen “It’s kinda weird but I always wonder how the flavor of food transitions into breast milk. Like what will Venecia taste when I get back home? So many questions.”
PRESTON
“I read somewhere that food makes your milk taste saltier or sweeter, depending on what you eat.” says as they both walk into the kitchen “you’re the only person I know that would get hype for a chicken salad” laughs
MONA
“Huh. Honestly, poor kid. Unable to enjoy actual good food. Has to settle for breastmilk.” leans back against the counter, arms crossed over her chest “What can I say? I find pleasure in the little things.”
PRESTON
''I'm pretty sure milk is her favorite thing in the whole wide world right now.'' chuckles before looking at her for a sec. ''You look nice tonight.''
MONA
“Wow, she’s not nearly as complex as I thought she was.” chuckles, glances down at her outfit despite knowing exactly what she chose “Oh this? I just kinda threw something on. My only qualification was that it didn’t have spit up on it. Thanks though.”
PRESTON
''She really isn't. It'll be a minute before she's just as complex as her mama, though.'' chuckles ''You're welcome. Next time we're having burgers, no salad.''
MONA
“I’m both excited and terrified for that when that day comes.” rolls eyes “It’s gotta be a really, really special occasion. But sure, we’ll have burgers at some point.”
PRESTON
''You'll experience what its like to handle Ramona Mason. It's a lot, I'll tell you that.'' smirks and squints his eyes ''Every single time you see me is a special occasion, keep that in mind.''
MONA
“Yikes, it’ll be like karma coming for me.” grins and shakes her head “So. When are we eating? Not gonna lie, I definitely came over here primarily for the food.”
PRESTON
''It really will be like that.'' shakes head and sighs before letting out another chuckle in serving her plate. ''There you go, hopefully you enjoy the only reason you came here for''
MONA
“I really wanted to bring her her tonight by the way. Like why not? She’s a baby, it’s not like she’s distracting or anything. Fabian literally made me pump and leave her though.” smiles widely as he fixes her plate, takes a seat at the table “Fix yours too. It’d be rude of me to eat alone in someone else’s home.”
PRESTON
''It's alright, makes sense he wouldn't want her here. We'll take it slow, I guess.'' reassures her before shaking his head. ''No, it's alright. I already ate two burgers on my way here, I'm good. – and, someone else's home? really?''
MONA
“Still, it’s annoying. He’s annoying. nods and proceeds to take a bite of her chicken salad “P, stop. You know what I mean. Not that I don’t feel at home here, but you literally cooked for me and it’d be super rude of me to proceed to eat without checking if you were as well. That’s all I meant.”
PRESTON
''He's being a dad and an ex, It can't be easy.'' sighs before nodding ''I get that but you'll have to get used to me cooking for you without worrying if I ate or not''
MONA
rolls her eyes “I guess.” continues eating “Ooor you could just wait to eat until you’re with me next time. Could be like a lil family dinner.”
PRESTON
“Good idea, I’ll wait for you next time if I manage to not go crazy with hunger. - is your food good?”
MONA
“The food’s amazing.” makes a show of taking another bite and moaning “Love having my own personal chef.”
PRESTON
laughs and shakes head “Yeah, nothing’s free in life, you’re gonna have to pay for that food.”
MONA
raises brows “Is paying you with my presence not enough?”
PRESTON
“Give me a kiss and we’re good” smirks
MONA
is taken aback for a sec, chuckles before shaking her head “Nah, my breath smells like chicken salad.”
PRESTON
hums “I guess this boutta be the last time I cook for you, then.”
MONA
groans and stands “Fine. It’s just a little weird that chicken salad breath is what you’re into.” leans in and firmly kisses his lips
PRESTON
cups her face and kisses her harder, lingering for a sec
MONA
smiles contentedly as he moves away “This is really fun, but I think we’re supposed to be talking, right?” lightly strokes his cheek “We should talk before anything else.”
PRESTON
“You’re right” nods, taking a deep breath “Finish your food and we’ll talk”
MONA
sighs, is kinda nervous “Ok. But in the meantime, tell me how your day was?” slips back into her seat, eats
PRESTON
“It was good. There was a big group of people ordering a lot of food and they kept me on my toes for the entirety of my shift but it was alright, I enjoyed it. - My neck is killing me, though.” runs a hand through his neck. “How was yours?”
MONA
pouts as she listens to his story, finishes up the last of her food “And then you really came home and cooked again? It’s almost as if you love overworking yourself.” stands to put her plate in the sink, takes his hand and leads him over to the couch “My day was good. Pretty much the exact same as all of my days lately. Ven woke up at around 6 and I fed her. We went back to sleep until like 8 and repeated the process. Then I chatted a bit over text with an old family friend of mine who is apparently seeing Kayla. Watched some tv. Did mom shit. Not a very exciting day.” positions herself behind him in the couch and begins firmly massaging his neck
PRESTON
“I don’t mind cooking for you. I enjoy it, actually. - I’ll watch it later, leave it there.” takes her hand and follows. Moaning softly when he felt her hands on his neck. “Is Ven doing alright? Like, in general? Does she have doctors appointments and such?” moans quietly again. “How did I not know you were so good at this?”
MONA
“Yeah, she’s doing amazing. Hitting all her milestones. She actually had an appointment Thursday of last week and didn’t even cry when she got her shots. I found that both admirable and terrifying.” continues massaging him, overall feeling really calm and comfortable in the situation
PRESTON
“She’s already a champ, I love that.” pauses “So, let’s just talk about what happened and all that. — Are you ready to star a new relationship?”
MONA
“Ugh. I love her.” freezes for a second before continuing the massage “I’ve honestly kinda learned my lesson with answering that question. Truth is, I don’t know. But I think so.”
PRESTON
“I’m not tryna’ make you go from a relationship to another. We can be together, take things slowly.” shrugs “Like, we don’t gotta move in together right away or do anything too drastic. Just enjoy ourselves, be there for each other and the rest will happen organically.”
MONA
manages to be caught off guard by the conversation despite knowing it was planned “I think I would really appreciate that. That’s what I was mostly scared of, I think. The whole jumping into things. I have a tendency to do that and I feel like it always ends poorly.” hesitates “I guess I’m also kind of afraid of the judgment.”
PRESTON
“It would be best if we just took it like a couple of kids, just enjoying ourselves until we both feel we’re ready to aim higher.” sighs “People won’t judge what they don’t know and they don’t gotta know about us until you want to.”
MONA
“I think I’d like that. Just opening ourselves up to something happening, but also not forcing anything.” smiles “I don’t want you to be a secret though.” sighs “As much as I hate the idea of us being judged, I hate the idea of us only being behind closed doors even more.”
PRESTON
“It’s up to you, bbygirl.” shrugs “I’m fine with whatever you decide”
MONA
“P, I am not keeping you a secret.”
PRESTON
“Alright, that’s good.” nods “How do we go about this?”
MONA
“Uh, I don’t actually. know. I literally always just dive right into the deep end of these things.” chuckles “Let’s just maybe start by making every night like tonight? Maybe some days? Like when’s the next time you’re off?”
PRESTON
shakes head and turns to face her. “First thing first.” pauses “Do you wanna be my girl? Like, officially. No messin’ around with other people, no nothing. Just the two of us.”
MONA
“Wait... so an open relationship isn’t an option?” laughs
PRESTON
“An open relationship between you, me, myself, yourself, all of us.” smirks
MONA
“Ohh, ok. Well in that case, I’m totally on board.” smirks before leaning in to kiss him
PRESTON
kisses her back, breaking the kiss to pull her into a hug “I never thought I’d see the day” chuckles, pulling away
MONA
“I never thought I’d see the day.” laughs “Seriously, I remember the day we first met and you seemed so unimpressed.”
PRESTON
“I was unimpressed, believe me.” chuckles “I was like, another rich, entitled, white girl. Groundbreaking.”
MONA
rolls eyes “Well I’m glad you gave me the opportunity to prove you wrong.”
PRESTON
“The minute you started talking about weird shit, I knew you were different.” laughs
MONA
laughs, checks phone for any updates on ven, sighs “So now what?”
PRESTON
“Now we say goodbye and you go home to that cute little baby of yours and we see each other tomorrow.” smiles
MONA
pouts “But I don’t want to say goodbye.” frowns “But I also want to know what Ven’s up to.”
PRESTON
“She’s probably missing her mama.” pulls her in for another kiss “It’ll ve tomorrow before you know it.” kisses her again
MONA
“Probably. Imagine having me smothering you every second of every day and suddenly I’m just not there?” frowns “She’s probably freaking out right now and Fabian just doesn’t want to say anything and make it seem like he doesn’t know what he’s doing.” sighs and stands
PRESTON
“it’s okay, you said she was always calm and collected, Im sure she’s not freaking out. Just missing you.” walks her to the door. “Text me, alright?”
MONA
“Yeah, but maybe that’s because I’m always around?” stops once she gets to the door, turns to face him “Yeah, of course. I’ll text you once I’m there and settled.”
PRESTON
“Please do, let me know how she’s been in your absence.” leans forward and presses his lips against hers. “Go, we’ll talk in a minute.”
MONA
kisses him back, smiles and waves before walking out of the door
