I'm Losing My Light (Zane x Reader)

Chapter Three

~at the guy's house~
Garroth and Laurence were running around from room to room, making sure everything was clean and perfect. They see each other in the hallway. "Garroth!" "Laurence!" They call out to each other. "Did you make sure to get the kind of food she likes!?" Garroth asks Laurence. "Yes! Uh, did you make sure all the toilet seats are down?" Laurence replies. Garroth starts to freak out. "Oh no! I forgot!" "Ah! She's gonna be here any minute!" Dante comes out of his room. "What are you guys freaking out about now?" He asks. "Rosy is coming over to our house today." Laurence replies. "Yeah, we have to make sure everything is perfect, so she will kiss me." Garroth adds while daydreaming. "Yeah!....hey WAIT A MINUTE." Laurence replies while realizing what he had said.  Dante starts to laugh. "You guys are hilarious! You both overreact with anything that has to do with her!" Garroth starts to jump up and down. "NO.WE.DON'T!!" He screams. Blue sparkles start to form around him and he turns into a shadow knight. (Me: What am I doing XD.). "....Okayyyy. Garroth, maybe Dante has a point." Laurence says. "Getting her to be my girlfriend is going to be easy if you keep acting this immature." Dante says with a laugh. "What! Hey, you still are planning to go after her!" Laurence says, shocked. Garroth, who is now back to normal and will probably not kill anyone now (Me: no promises), says "Oh Laurence, even if he DID go after her, he doesn't stand a chance. He doesn't love Rosy in the way we do." Dante raises an eyebrow. "Oh really? And what makes you so sure?". "Because....uhh..." Laurence tries to think of a reason. "Maybe I actually have feelings for her, but have just been really cool about it. Ever think about that?" Dante says tauntingly. "He's lying! ...uh..right?" Garroth says, unsure. "Well, I did wait 15 years to see her again so...just some food for thought. Can't wait to see her when she comes over, its going to be hilarious! You guys couldn't even keep your cool around her if your lives depended on it!" Dante says and walks back into his room. Laurence turns to Garroth. "Garroth, I think that's a challenge. Lets prove him wrong. Were going to be so cool around Rosy that she won't even recognize us." Laurence says with a smirk. "Yeah!". Just then, the doorbell rings. The guys look at each other. "Oh no..." Laurence says. Garroth jumps in fright and does a...."manly" scream. Garroth runs away into a random room.

~Rosy's POV~

I ring the doorbell. "Hmm...I wonder if there even home right now. They said they were going to be so..." I cut myself off mid-thought when I see Laurence coming to the door. Oh...there he is!  I think to myself. Laurence opens the door. "Laurence, hey! Thanks for having me over. Uhm...first off I would like to apologize for Aphmau and myself for accusing you guys for moving in just because you found our address. It was really self centered of us and I feel like we didn't respect you guys. I'm really sorry." I say. Laurence chuckles. "Heh, you have nothing to apologize for!"  "No, I insist. Uhm, second I just wanted to welcome you guys to the neighborhood! I know we just moved in at the same time and we have both been so busy so, welcome! Also I made you guys this cake! I know its not at great as K.C makes but I tried." I say with a nervous laugh. "T-thank you! I'm sure its amazing since...you made it" Laurence says turning red. I look down "Eh...well let me know when you try it. Where's Garroth and Dante?" I ask. Laurence eyes go wide. "WELL GARROTH WAS HERE BUT---". I look at him, confused. "Uh...Okay? Does it matter?" I ask. "I mean, um, Garroth is around. I'm sure Garroth and Dante are both in their rooms getting freshened up." He says, regaining his cool. "Oh, I see. Well...." I start. "Well what?" He says, not catching around. I give a small laugh. "Don't you want to show me around?". Laurence comes closer. "The town!? LIKE A DATE!?" He says in my face. I back up a little and laugh nervously. "Uh...no I-I meant, like the house...you can show me around the house..." I say. Laurence blushes a bright red. I see this and get concerned. "Laurence? Are you okay?" I ask. He whispers something to himself. "Laurence, your whispering to yourself again. Are you sure your okay?" I ask him. "I just need a drink of water or something. I think I'm coming down with a fever." He says looking around the room. "Oh no! I don't have to be over here if your not feeling well!" I say. "I'll be back..." he says and runs off. "Well...that was interesting.." I say to myself. I walk out of the entrance room and see Garroth coming around the corner. He jumps when he sees me. "Oh! Garroth!" I say, smiling. "R-Rosy!" He says surprised. "Its great to see you, I haven't seen you since-" He cuts me off. "I-I-I though L-Laurence was seeing you inside." He stutters. "Well, he started getting sweaty all of a sudden and flushed! I thought he went to go get some water." I say. "Oh! well if t-that's the case we should go get him!" Garroth says. "No, no! If he's sick we shouldn't bother him." I say. Garroth starts to say something but instead whispers to himself. "Did you say something?" I ask coming closer. "I said...uh... did you want to watch a movie tonight? We were thinking about ordering pizza and hot wings. I know how much you like hot wings from that pizza place." He says. I think back to what happened with K.C and the delivery man and give an unsure noise. "Is something wrong?" He asks. "Kind of... I had a semi-bad experience with the pizza guy the other day." I say. "What? Did he do something to you!?" Garroth says coming closer and getting concerned. "No...more like Kawaii~Chan happened..." I say. I tell him the story, knowing it would come up eventually. "Oh wow that sounds like It was an experience, wait...did the pizza man have pink hair?" He asks me. "Yeah that's him!". Garroth starts to laugh. "That's Reese. We met him the other day. He seems like a cool guy, though he has pink hair so I can see why K.C would like him. Isn't that her favorite color?" He says. "It is! Is he okay by the way? I was gonna ask him about the whole pink thing but I figured it was really rude to ask that and none of my business." I say. Garroth scratches the back of his neck. "Yeah, Dante was rude enough to just outright ask him about that. He's apparently from another Dimension or something where he was the Prince of Candy people. He says his other brothers are like him but have different colors- if that's true then that's pretty interesting." Garroth explains. "Oh wow! Speaking of interesting, do you wanna show me around?" I ask. "S-S-Sure! Uh, f-follow me!" He stutters. Garroth shows me stairs going down. "This is the basement, it's really messy inside since we've been tossing cardboard there for recycling. So,  no tour of that place yet. Though we want to make it into a gaming room." He explains. "That sounds awesome!" I gush. We walk to a door. "This room belongs o Laurence, he usually leaves is open so go on in!" He explains and opens the door. I thank him and walk in. Its a small room, with a small desk. There is a video game poster about the desk and his bed. In the far corner there is a small punching bag. I say how cool his room was and we move on to the next door. "This is my room, its a little empty at the moment. I just ordered a carpet to spruce it up!" He says proudly. I walk into it and smile. Its another small room with a desk near the door. He has a video game poster that goes all the way across the wall and a small bedside table next to his bed. He also had a bigger punching bag in the corner just like Katelyn has. I tell him that I love his room and he smiles. We walk out of the room. "This is the bathroom. Nothing special." He says. I take a look in anyway. The bathroom has a small tub that takes up one side of the room. On the other side there is a toilet and two sinks. "Nothing special? You have two sinks!" I laugh. I walk out and Garroth points to a door In the corner. "That is Dante's room. He's inside so...I wouldn't feel right barging in." I nod, understanding. We walk back into the living room and turn into the kitchen. We see Laurence looking into the sink, talking to himself. I walk up to him and ask if he's okay, he doesn't even hear me or notice that I'm there. I walk away slowly. Garroth takes me outside. They have a tree house and a medium sized hot tub, along with lots of yard space. "Is this a hot tub? Hey, maybe I can come over and use it sometime!" I say with a laugh. I start to ramble on about a new bathing suit I had just ordered and how a friend of mine told me its best to use a hot tub in the winter. When I turn around, Garroth's gone. "Garroth?" I look around. Where did he go? I ask myself. I look at the house and see Dante in the window. "Ah! Dante! There you are!" I say. He comes out. "Hey Rosy! It's great to see you! How are you doing!" He asks. "I'm doing good. I have just been busy moving in." I reply. "I feel ya, it's a LOT of work." He says with a laugh. "Right? The good thing about it is we get to go shopping! I just ordered a bunch of posters for my room since I love cute things like that." I say with a smile. "That sounds awesome! Hey, speaking of cute, I got something to show ya! Follow me!" He says. I follow him into his room. He has an UNDERTALE poster on his wall, along with a desk and his bed in the corner. "So you had mentioned before you like cute things. I wanted to show you this, I think you'll get a kick out of it!" He says giving me something. I take the picture and gasp. Its a picture of Dante when he was a baby. "Aww!!! Dante oh my gosh!!" I gush. "Its me when I was a baby!" Dante laughs. "Aww, Dante!!"

~Nobody's POV~

Garroth runs up to Laurence in the hallway. "Where is she?" Garroth asks. "I looked all over the house! I can't find her!" Laurence says in panic. Suddenly, they hear a voice coming from Dante's room. "Dante, your adorable!" the voice says. "W-what!?" Garroth panics. "She's in Dante's room!? WITH DANTE!?" Laurence freaks out. "Aww you didn't have to share this with me, but I'm glad you did. I never knew this side of you before." They hear her say. "Calm down Garroth, we can't assume things." Laurence says through his teeth. "Seriously your so cute! Aww, I just wanna hug and kiss you!" Rosy says. "THATS IT!" Laurence screams. Garroth breaks down the door. "DANTE YOUR DEAD!!!....Uh..." Garroth screams then stops when he sees them not even close to each other. Rosy sighs. "You two were listening through the door, weren't you?" She says. Garroth and Laurence both look down. "Yeah..." they say in sync. "And you thought something was going on, didn't you?" She says. "Yeah..." they say in sync again. Rosy sighs. "I'm going to go to the bathroom. Dante, please excuse me, I'll be back in a second." She says and walks to the bathroom. "You guys are just hilarious." Dante says. "You set this up, didn't you!" Laurence hisses. "No. I actually didn't." He replies. Suddenly, they hear Rosy scream. "OH MY GOD, GUYS! GUYS HELP, I FELL IN THE TOILET! I CAN'T GET UP! MY BUTT IS STUCK!" She yells. The guys look at each other and laugh. "GUYS IM SERIOUS! GET Me OUTTA HERE!"
