See Through || Pico x Reader

I Can't

"Alright, pipe down little lady. Prepare to be destroyed." He said confidently as he sat beside me on the floor where Jenna sat before.

I barely noticed before now because I was too scared of the movie, but Pico smelled so nice.

Pico chose Beyonetta and I chose Pit this time.

He's cute and I like flying, shut up.

Our battle commences, and it didn't take long before I was losing.

"You surrender yet?" He asks with a cocky smirk.

"Never."

"Don't say I didn't warn you." He sighed. The Smash Ball appeared as if he summoned it and he got to it first."Last chance, shorty."

"You're not gonna hit me."

But he hit me.

And I died.

Fuck.

"Augh, dammit!" I cried out in defeat.

"Ah, as I said. You girls sure talk a lot of smack."

"Oh shut up!" Jenna and I shout in unison.

"My turn!" Keith picked me up and set me on the couch before taking my spot next to Pico.

They both fought valiantly, but Pico was ultimately the winner.

"Congrats, Pico." I clapped for him. He turned around and winked at me, making my blush again. My heart damn near exploded.

Stop, stop, stop! I have a boyfriend! Stop being so attractive! I yelled in my head.

We played a few more games for a few more hours until we all started getting sleepy. Pico was the first to fall asleep on the floor with one of the couch pillows. Keith was on the verge of falling asleep but was fighting it off for some reason.

"Hey, wanna spend the night? I doubt you wanna go home after what happened earlier." Jenna said as she stretched her arms above her head.

"Yeah, I'm too tired to go home. These guys seem to be out cold."

"I'm not asleep yet." Keith mumbled.

"You're basically asleep. Just close your eyes, babe." Jenna brushed some of his blue hair from his face and he did as she said, closing his eyes and almost instantly falling asleep.

She turned off the game and the TV before beckoning me to follow her to her bedroom. She shut the door and started undressing herself.

"So, what'd you think of Pico?" She asks, looking through her dresser drawers for something comfortable to sleep in.

I did the same, undressing myself as well and pulling out a tank top and really short shorts. Shorts that practically looked like panties.

"He's pretty cool. Really nice."

"Yeah, he's been really nice to you."

"S-shut up." I turned my head away and took off my shirt.

"I know this isn't any of my business, so just tell me when to stop," she says, getting dressed in cute white pants with a red tank top."Markus is an asshole, and I know you can do way better than that."

"I'd love to. But I'd feel guilty."

"He'll get over it. We all do eventually get over break ups."

"Not about him. About my family."

She remained silent, waiting for me to continued. She took my hand and lead me to her bed to sit down."I'm here if you wanna talk about it."

I sigh."When I started dating Markus, I didn't even know he was rich. I didn't find out until he brought me to meet his family. His house was massive and all that. His father was really nice, but I never met his mother. Neither of them wanted to talk about it. A few weeks later, I brought him to meet my family, and my parents didn't like him."

"Typical." Jenna said, as if she had someone in mind.

"There was an argument which ended in me leaving to live with Markus and I haven't been back to visit, mainly because I'm afraid to bring it up."

"You still talk to them, right?"

"Yeah, of course. But we just haven't spoken about the argument. I'm too scared to bring it up. We only have short chats, just making sure we're all okay and safe."

I could tell that this made her a little sad. She held both of my hands and squeezed them slightly.

"Ever since that day, things just haven't felt the same between the two of us. He seems...demanding and scary sometimes. When he's like that, I'm afraid of making him mad."

"It definitely shouldn't be like that. That's not how a relationship is supposed to be." She said, leaning closer to me.

I know she could never imagine things being like that between her and Keith. Their relationship is basically perfect.

"I'm tired." I changed the subject, removing my hands from her grip and walked towards the door.

"Where ya goin?"

"The guest room." I reply. There was a guest room she always let me sleep in when I stayed over. She shook her head and waved her hand, calling me back to her."Nah, chika. Sleep in here with me. I need to make sure you're okay tonight."

I smile and approach the other side of the bed, lifting the covers and getting comfortable next to her.

"Dump Markus and go out with Pico." She said in the midst of a yawn. I grabbed a pillow and smacked her in the face, making her laugh.

After a few more teases, she finally left me alone and fell asleep.

These are the moments I feel most happy.

With Jenna, my best friend. Her boyfriend, who is like a cool brother in a way. And my new friend, Pico, who I think...

I like...

But I can't....
