HEART OF GLASS —— CHAPTER 009
part one !
𝟬𝟬𝟵. guard you with my life
AERA SAT DOWN IN front of her desk with a warm cup of hot chocolate in her hands and she pulled her knees to her chest. Not even five minutes ago was she texted by Seán to join an Among Us server. Luckily, she didn't have the pressure of streaming weighing down on her shoulders, hence why she had no makeup on, knotty hair, and a hoodie covering her entire body.

just for u
She sighed softly with a smile on her face and pulled up Discord, already hearing the loud voices of her friends as soon as she joined. Immediately, she was greeted by multiple voices of friends. "Hi, hello, hi everyone."
"Corpse, you're here! Good noon!" Rae's cheery voice flooded through their ears and Aera perked up.
"Yeah, I'm not a morning person either. I just woke up," Corpse croaked, his voice even deeper than it usually was.
"Oh my god," Aera chuckled a bit, feeling her cheeks heat up ever so slightly.
"Jesus," Charlie dragged out.
"Did you just wake up?" Toast chuckled to himself.
Corpse laughed lightly, shaking his head at his friends.
"It's like a 40hz voice." Seán joked, earning a laugh from everyone.
"It sounded like short wave radio," Charlie laughed and Aera shook her head.
Aera muted herself once again, not feeling like talking too much. She was exhausted. She loved the life she lived, don't get her wrong, but there were times where she wished that she was still in Melbourne with her family and roaming around the city without a care in the world.
"I didn't know it could get lower!"
"I didn't know you could hit puberty twice, Jesus."
A few moments passed by before Seán's voice entered again, "Corpse, can I just borrow the voice? For like five minutes."
"What would you do with it?"
"I don't know, like call my dad or something and be like 'See! I am a real man! Fuck you!'" Aera let out a loud laugh, her stomach starting to hurt from all of the laughing.
"Imagine having Corpse as your dad, you'll always be inferior."

Aera smiled softly again and put her phone down as they entered the lobby, not paying attention to the little things that were being said in the lobby. Luckily, once the game started, she was greeted with a screen that made her stress go down ever so slightly.
( Crewmate )
There are 2 Imposters among us
Corpse followed Aera the whole time even though he was imposter. He was going to do everything in his power to make sure that she wasn't killed and she would be cleared from any suspicion. Aera was almost completely finished with her tasks when Corpse pretended to do a task and she ran off to Security to watch cams. Corpse panicked slightly when he realized she was gone before running around, killing a person and stumbling across another body that looked eerily familiar.
He knew that Sykkuno killed and seeing that it was half of a pink body with a identical child, he knew it was Aera and reported it.
Corpse unmuted his mic right away and said, "Alright, who the fuck killed Aera? I just wanna talk."
Aera giggled to herself softly, her cheeks burning. Not before long, Sykkuno was pinned for killing Aera and voted off. She heard the little sound that went off when someone typed in chat and she saw Rae's message about Corpse killing her and her jaw dropped.
Valkyrae

aera

the whole time and didn't kill me
Valkyrae
well he killed me so i think
he's imposter
Valkyrae

aera
sykkuno :(
Aera wandered around as a ghost and finished her last task. Since she had nothing left to do, she got up to make another cup of hot chocolate and go to the bathroom. By the time she came back, she was greeted with the defeat screen, meaning that Corpse and Sykkuno won.
A couple more games were played before she decided to call it quits, not having the energy to keep playing. Corpse kept streaming so she decided to watch his.
aera romano donated $100

Corpse choked a bit when he saw the donation and his breath caught in his throat when he saw who it was from. "Aera, you didn't have to do that."
aera romano donated $100

"God, you're amazing," Corpse smiled, feeling his heart race uncontrollably. "And I didn't kill you because I promised to protect you with my life."
