-y/n's pov-
i was sitting on colby's bed just scrolling through instagram, completely bored out of my mind. it was about 2:30pm and i had nothing planned for the day as colby was out with brennen filming a challenge video. everyone else at the house was doing something as well so i had the whole house to myself. soon enough i was bored enough that i decided to do something in order to pass time. but before i could even think about what else i could possibly do, i heard the front door open. wondering who it was, i head downstairs and see corey and devyn coming home from whatever they were doing.
"hey y/n!" devyn said while walking over to the living room, plopping herself down on the couch.
"hey devyn! hi corey! where did you guys just come from? you both look exhausted" i said while laughing and walking over to sit next to devyn. corey walks into the kitchen shouting, "i wanted to go on an adventure so i dragged her with me!" devyn sighed and rolled her eyes. "he dragged me to go looking for gucci shoes that he eventually didn't buy because he didn't know which ones he wanted".
"ah typical corey" i said, smiling.
"mhm" devyn replied. "so what did you do while we were gone? sam and elton were still here when we left, where did they go?" devyn asked, sitting up.
"mm i just laid on colby's bed and did absolutely nothing, but sam left like an hour after you guys did. think he said something about meeting up with kat and going hiking? and elton left to go film with heath or something" i shrugged looking down at my phone to check the time.
"yo y/n" corey yelled from the kitchen.
"what's up papa gunther"
"sam wants the whole house to play midnight hide and seek tonight. you down?"
"hell yeah i am! count me in yo im gonna win like always" i yelled back looking over at devyn who was on her phone.
"are you gonna stay and play the game with us?"
"i wish but i have plans with some other friends but good luck! im rooting for you" she said winking at me. "better squash those boys and show them who's the best".
i laughed, "thanks dev! glad someone in this house knows who's the best at all these games and challenges they come up with"
-time skip to when everyone is gathered at home-
everyone was home and was getting ready to play the game of hide and seek as sam was explaining all the rules to us. we had sam, elton, corey, brennen, colby and i playing the game.
"nothing is off limits in our property" sam explains as everyone is turning off the lights one by one.
"alright guys, im going outside and im counting to three minutes and then im going back in" sam says as he walks out the door. as soon as the door shuts, everyone scrambles to find their hiding spots. as i'm looking around, something or someone grabbed my hand.
"babe you scared me" i whisper yelled, lightly hitting colby on the arm.
"sorry babe ahaha, come on let's go find a hiding spot" he says pulling you in the direction of the living room.
"colbs im gonna hide in here" i whispered, pointing in the cabinet under the bar.
"you sure you'll be alright? it's kind of cramped in there and i know how you get" colby said, worried.
"it'll be fine. i'll be okay, i promise. just go and find your hiding spot so that you don't get found" i replied, waving him off. colby nods and runs off in the direction of the kitchen and i hear the back door open and close, signaling that colby went outside. i slowly bent down and slid into the cabinet, closing the door as i turned on the camera.
"okay guys, so im currently sitting in a cabinet underneath the bar and im really hoping this game goes by quickly because i haven't even been here a minute and it's already getting hot and stuffy in here" i whispered, talking to the camera. i turned the camera off and tried to steady my breath as i noticed my heart beating faster. "it's ok y/n, just breathe. you'll be fine, the walls are not going to cram you in here. just, deep breaths" i whispered, trying to calm myself down. after about a minute of waiting, i hear the front door open. "ready or not, here i come" sam yells into the house.

-in the kitchen-
"if someone could fit in one of these cabinets, i would give them props. but then again, y/n is small enough to fit in one of these so gotta keeps my eyes peeled out for her". i turn around looking above the cabinets, "can someone get up there?" i wondered, shining my light at the top of the cabinets, scanning the whole kitchen.
-skipping to the backyard-
"okay there's got to be at least one person outside" i said to the camera, surprised as to how i haven't found a single person yet. "helloooo" i sang, looking around the backyard. "oh colby's a tree climber" i groaned, looking up at the tree in front of me. "i just heard something move" i said, hearing something shift right next to me. "see, this is just too good of a-" i trailed off as i saw something in the back corner. "wait a second" i smirked, seeing a figure hidden in the corner. "colby is that you" i said as i brightened my light. i see someone lift their head, revealing that it was, in fact, colby. "am i the first one?" colby asks, groaning that he was found. "you're the first one, you piece of crap" i said while laughing.
after finding colby, i found elton, and then corey.
"i really can't find y/n or brennen anywhere" i said, shocked that i still couldn't find them after searching the entire house.
y/n's pov
i heard sam talking to colby and elton who had been found. my heart started to beat faster as i felt the walls closing in on me, but i kept breathing in and out slowly to try and calm myself down. i then heard someone quietly open the cabinet door and was face to face with elton.
"sh don't worry i won't rat you out" elton says as he closes the cabinet. "is there anyone back there?" i heard sam ask elton. "nah there's nobody back here". as i heard them move on to the next room, i heard shuffling outside of the cabinet. "colby? is that you?" i asked wondering who was there. "it's elton, hold on" he whispered. suddenly i hear sam ask elton what he's doing. "oh i just spilled something when i was over here" he replies. i then hear him start tying something around the door handles. "wait elton, please don't lock me in here" i said starting to panic even more. "it'll be ok, don't worry, you'll win for sure" he says walking away. "no, no, no this can't be happening" i said to myself as i feel the walls closing in on me faster. i couldn't control my breathing and i started feeling light headed. i tried pushing on the doors but they wouldn't open. "fuck" i panted out as my breathing quickens. "please someone get me out of here" i quietly said to myself as i feel tears streaming down my face. tears quickly rolled down my cheeks as i felt that there was no escape.
colby's pov
sam had finally found brennen and was stressing because he was so close to finding him at the beginning of the game. "NO WAY! WAS I RIGHT" he exclaims seeing brennen pop out from above the cabinet. we were all laughing as sam was still trying to figure out where y/n was hiding. brennen finally climbed down from the top of the cabinet and joined the rest of us on the ground. "so y/n is the last one" elton says looking around at us. "y/n is the last one" sam says pointing the camera around, "how did she win?" he says. "she's doesn't even live here" sam says laughing. "i have an idea" brennen says, "let's just be done with the video and just let her keep hiding". we all laugh shaking our heads. "i wouldn't let her be stuck in that cabinet all night. but props to her for winning" i said in my head, smiling to myself. "you see, i already found y/n", elton says calmly. "and i locked her into her spot" he says. my eyes go wide. "YOU WHAT" i yelled, looking at him. "yeah i tied an extension cord around the handle so she cou-" before he could finish his sentence, i was off running to where she was hiding. and sure enough, there was a cord tied around the handle. "baby, listen to me. breathe okay? im gonna get you out" i say trying to undo the cord as fast as possible. "colby what's wrong" sam asks as all of them run over to the bar. "she's fucking claustrophobic and she has panic attacks if she can't get out" i spat out while still trying to undo the cord. "fuck" i hear elton say quietly. i finally undo the cord and yank open the doors, seeing y/n crying and panting. i quickly pull her into my arms as i rub her back. she grips on to me tight as she continues sobbing into my arms. i try and calm her down as the guys go off into the other room giving us space. "baby im so sorry, i didn't know elton locked you in there" i whisper as i kiss her forehead. "i wouldn't have let him do that to you, im sorry i wasn't there".
"it's okay. it was my idea to go in there, so it's really my fault" she says, sniffling, tears still falling down her face. i wipe away the tears, lifting her chin up to face me.
"i love you babe, and i promise i'll be there to protect you at all times, okay?" i say looking down at her.
"i love you too colby, thank you for saving me" she says, softly. i smile as i place my lips on hers, slipping my hand into hers and intertwining our fingers. i love this girl too much to lose her, and i would do anything to keep her by my side.
