"You're not surprised???" I ask Velvet. She leans against her bedroom wall.
"Not at all" she smirks.
Apparently she could tell I liked him.
"But-"
"I've seen the way you look at the fucking flatscreen himself. I've seen the way he looks at you too. And um. HOW MANY TIMES have you guys MADE OUT??" Velvet grabs her phone off the pillow next to us. Is it really that obviously??
Next thing I know Velvet's phone is being tossed at me. I grab it and look at the screen. I see a folder named 'Flatscreen and my babes'
"Velvet what the fuck is this-" I stare at the folder wondering why she has an entire file oder dedicated to this.
"Clicky click click!" She snaps her fingers. I click the folder.
Tons and tons of videos and pictures of me and Vox take ahold of the screen. One of the ones I spot is the one Velvet sent me of Vox and I on the couch together. So many... SHE'S LITERALLY A STALKER-
"You're a fucking stalker!-" I state, looking her in the eyes and she shakes her finger at me.
"No no no sweetie, I'm a shipper. This is just my proof." She grins mischievously. I roll my eyes at her. She has a point though...
"So what do I do about this..?" I pause "like how can I figure out what he wants.. and not make shit weird?" My gaze moves to Velvet who is refreshing her makeup in the mirror at the desk beside me.
"Are you kidding me?!" She whips her head to me. "You're joking right?" An anxious feeling flutters in my veins.
"I'm being serious.."
"YOU GOD DAMN BLIND FUCKER OF A MOTHERFUCKING- " she throws a makeup brush at me. I quickly dodge it before it smacks me in my face.
"LOOK AT MY PHONE AGAIN" She yells "DID YOU NOT SEE WHAT THAT FOLDER WAS???"
I tense up and glance at the photos.
Each one holding a scene of me and Vox being close.
"So do you really think I wouldn't ruin stuff by asking him what he wants from our relationship?" I ask quietly. Velv calms down and rolls her eyes. I hear her sigh.
"He cuddles up on you like a leech. Has you share a bed with him. Let's you live with him. Kisses your head and face or whatever. Let's you wear his clothes. STATED he wanted to spend forever with you. Cares for you... IM PRETTY DAMN SURE HE LIKES YOU,YN!!" She throws another brush at me. "AND YOU TWO FUCKING MADE OUT."
I sigh. Maybe I'll ask then..
***
"I'm back" I call out as I enter Vox's home. Maybe i can just call here my home too.. I do live here...
"Y/nnn" Vox peaks around from his office and smiles at me. Not his fake smile he tends to wear, but a soft real one.
Nervousness fills my stomach. Even after hearing Velvet's argument I still can't help but worry.
"Can we talk..?" I ask quietly as I put my staff against the wall. I stare at the unique symbols on the sides of it as I wait for Vox to speak.
"Yeah- about what though? Are you okay?" He walks towards me trying to catch my eye gaze. "Did you see Aspen or- that fucking radio rat?" His face flickers with a hint of anger bringing up the name.
"No, nothing like that. It's actually just about me and you.." no going back now.
"Oh" Vox puts his arms behind his back. He looks around the room as if he didn't know either.
An awkward feeling spreads all around my body. I clear my throat and walk to the living room. Vox follows me and sits beside me, leaving space in between us.
"So.."
"This is awkward.." I cringe and fiddle with my hands in my lap. "I'm just gonna get the question out of the way. What are we to each other?.."
I look up and turn my head to him. He looks at me and stays quiet. I wait for an answer while we hold eye contact.
"Well......what do you want?" He finally speaks.
I sit for a second. How to answer this.
"Uh- first- how do you feel? About me...this... I dunno-" I go back to fiddling with my hands. My leg bounces a bit while I think.
Vox stays quiet. I stay quiet. Then sigh.
"I hate how you make me feel.." he says quietly. My heart drops and I my breath slows. Oh..
"Oh okay then." I murmur and put my hands in my lap. I look at the floor.
"Oh- shit- no- not like the way you're taking it." Vox face palms.
"I hate it because it's new. You make me feel.. fuzzy? Inside..? Is that the correct way of putting it?" He reaches my hand. "I like having you close. I love being near you. Even if it makes me feel..weird..it's a good weird-" he gives me a nervous smile.
A weight feels like it's been lifted off my shoulders. I have a smile on my face as I look at him.
"So.. what do you want?" My heart quickens as he asks this.
"Well..." I breathe in. "I'd like if we became something.."
"Then that's what will happen." He looks at me with a caring smile.
"Wait- r-really?"
"Would it make you happy?" He says softly. I nod. "Then yes really."
"B-but like- Is that what you want?"
"Would I be saying this all if it wasn't?" He grins. I chuckle and shake my head.
"Alright then. Y/n," He grabs ahold of my other hand. "Would you like to give me the honor of having you as my girlfriend?" I nod instantly.
Smiling he brings me close and kisses me.
I lean forward kissing him passionately. He pulls me onto his lap by my waist. I gasp for my breath in between each movement. My body feels hot as Vox slowly makes his way to my neck.
He kisses my neck with such passion. One hand makes it to my hair. I lean my head into the crook of his neck. So many emotions wash over me as he kisses me once more.
Sparks flicker in my heart. I feel his tongue slowly creep its way into my mouth as we kiss. I groan and wrap my arms around his neck. Everything slows down and he smiles at me. I look into his eyes.
"Thank you" he says as he kisses me again.
***
I smile sleepily. I'm laying on Vox's chest as he rubs my back gently. Every so often he kisses me on my head.
Today was great. I close my eyes. Vox messed with my hair sweetly. He's been much more clingy since we've made it official. I don't mind it though. I'm glad he's around.
As I almost fall asleep the static fills my ears once again. Goosebumps run along my spine. I open my eyes and see Vox pretty much asleep. It seems like whispering through a walkie-talkie. From a far distance. It keeps talking. Causing more discomfort. What the fuck is this-
I close my eyes again and cling onto Vox.
I just hope this static shit stops soon.
A/n
It'll stop soon. Just not in a happy way :)
