Running Away? Count Me In! || Soft!FNF Reader Insert

Who are You?

Pico grimaces at his comment. "...nice to see you too." he says bitterly. Boyfriend seems to snap out of his shock at his boyfriends' voice. "I-I'm sorry, dad, I can explain-!" he starts. "So. You think you're all grown up now?" Fairest starts, effectively shutting down his son's stuttering explanation.

Fairest continues when Benjamin doesn't answer. "If you're such an adult, then you should have no problem beating me in a rap battle!" he exclaims again, shocking both Pico and Benjamin. "Huh?!" the younger blue haired male exclaims after his initial shock.

Father Fairest takes another puff of his cigar before answering. "C'mon, sport! Show me what you got!"

After the battle, Boyfriend still appears nervous, while Father Fairest looks proud. "You sound just as good as your old man! It's a real shame you're putting all that talent to waste..." The old man quips, attempting to sound remorseful at the end.

Boyfriend pauses, unable to answer to that. His ginger counterpart notices and smiles softly, getting his attention. "Hey, don't listen to him, Softie." he urges, not wanting his Boyfriend to fall pray to his father's tricks.

Father Fairest ignored him and continued, "Your mother and I built this perfect life for you so you could become a star..." He paused, an amused but strained smile on his face. "And you want to be what? A painter?" he stopped and let out a flat chuckle. "Doesn't that just sound ridiculous?"

"Just listen to me for once-" Boyfriend tried, before being interrupted by his father. "Speak up, I can't hear you." the older said, growing irritated. Benjamin huffed out a small breath before trying again. "It's my life-!" he started, before being interrupted again (Like, let the man speak-).

Father Fairest chuckled darkly, raising an eyebrow. "Oh is it now?"

Having enough of this 'nonsense', Fairest started to make a deal. He put on a thoughtful face. "Hm. You know-" he paused, knowing he interested the two in whatever he was about to say. He continued, "It's been a real pain trying to find you these past couple weeks..." he trailed off, Benjamin looking at him, not knowing how to respond.

Father Fairest smirked, "Let's make a deal, hm? If you can beat me in this next song, we can forget this all ever happened." he finished, relishing in the hopeful look that crossed his sons' eyes. His son paused a moment before responding, "Really...?" he trailed off.

Fairest smirked and raised an eyebrow, appearing nonchalant about it. "Really." he confirmed. Pico cut in, "Don't trust him, B." he said, warning his lover. Boyfriend looked at Pico then back at his father before pausing. "I-..." he started, before cutting himself off. "Okay." he managed out, agreeing to Fairest' deal.

Father Fairest allowed a disappointed frown to cover his features, "I guess it's time to finally whip you into shape." he spoke before starting the song.

As the two finished the song, Pico gave his boyfriend a loving smile. "You did it!" the ginger cheered. "I..." BF paused, processing the win. "yeah! I guess I did!" he finished with a smile. His smile turned nervous as he looked at his father. "So, um... we're free to go right?" he asked, making sure it wasn't a trick.

Father Fairest looked at him with a frown "...". "C'mon, sport." he replied, the frown turning into a dark smirk. "We never raised an idiot." he said. His smirk turned into a sneer, "You didn't ACTUALLY think I was leaving empty handed, did you?" he finished. He started reaching for Benjamin, attempting to grab him by the arm.
