HOO seven plus Nico and Will x Gn!Reader

Percy

When Percy realised you were sick, he got even more protective over you. He wouldn’t let you go fight or exercise and tried to keep you in your cabin most of the time, even dealing with Mr. D’s lectures.

You couldn’t even fight back when you saw his efforts in making you feel better.

He tried making you comforting (blue) food, and he always told you how his mother always used to make it when he was a young kid.

He’d be so annoying, to be fair, but he would also pamper you a lot, getting you everything you’d ask for, except letting you do anything that would tire you out. You were sick! Let him do it instead! You need to rest!

“Let me get up,” you whined as you struggled to get Percy off of you, “no! No training for today, doctor’s orders,” he hugged you tighter, trying to keep you still. You just struggled more, until you eventually gave up. “You’re not even a doctor” you sighed and he just gave you a cheeky grin, “but I’m your boyfriend.”

Annabeth Chase

She’d stay in bed with you, reading a book, even reading it to you, if you asked so. You just loved hearing your firm girlfriend’s voice when you were sick. She’d gently explain everything her book said to you since it was about complex architecture, if you didn’t understand the chapter well.

She’d also request for you not to do much for the day and scold you if you decide to train anyway. She’d ask you to at least let her help you if she really can’t stop you.

She’d hold you and probably make fun of the way you sound and sleep when you’re sick, just to be mean to you and watch you smile and get mad at her comments.

“Did you actually fall asleep?” she asked, as she finished reading a chapter she got particularly passionate about. She sighed as she got no answer before a smile took over her face. “You look like a duck, a very sick one” she chuckled to herself before closing her book and planting a soft kiss on your forehead before drifting off to some rest as well.

Jason

He would try to keep calm and stay collected, but he’s actually worried as hell. When he saw you all sick and weak, he couldn’t help but think you were dying or something. So he would try to stay close to you, and get information about how you were feeling quietly.

Once you told him you’d get better soon, he calmed down a bit, but he was still worried. You could see how he always kept an eye on you and stopped you from doing anything, just telling you he’d “do it for you”.

He would genuinely do anything you asked him to, and when you started to get better, you might have heard him sigh from relief.

“Your face is hotter than usual,” he says, his sight switching from the wall to your face quickly as he adjusted his glasses nervously. “Yeah, I’m sick,” you answered, and he visibly tensed up. You could see him slowly scooting over to you, placing your head on his shoulder. “I’ll be fine a few days.” He just nodded. “Is that so? I’m glad? Oh, stop. I’ll get it for you.” He put an arm over you and you tried to grab the termometer, and got up to get it himself

Leo

Leo would whine a lot about how you weren’t able to cuddle with him properly, or train with him, or spend time with him. Not that’s gonna stop it. If you told him you’d didn’t want him to get close to you so he wouldn’t get sick too, let me tell you… this boy DID NOT care!!!

He wants to hold you and make you feel better. Hell! He INVENTED a special dish to make you feel better, which is inspired by his mother’s special recipe.

He’d make you watch your favorite shows with him, holding you in your cabin, as he completely ignored Mr D’s scoldings (he asked for Nico’s help to get rid of him. Good thing Nico was his friend, kind of).

If you complained about him being too hot, he would loosen his hold on you (reluctantly) and probably feel a bit bad about it. But what do you want him to do? You’re all sick and cute like this;let him cuddle you!

“Hey, what do you wanna watch?” he asks as he puts the covers over you. You mumbled against his shoulder and he chuckled, “Yeah, I understood that.” He teased you as he held you a bit closer to him. “Can you make me some more?” you asked softly, pointing to the empty bowl. He looked at you happily before nodding, “thank you, Leo”. He kissed your hand as he got up and said, “No need to thank me, amor.".

Frank

Frank would definitely panic at first, getting nervous about how to treat you, especially the first times it happened. He didn’t know what to do since he was shyer early in your relationship.

However, that didn’t stop his protective side from showing.

He would probably be surprised by how frail you looked, and felt an urge to protect you like he never did before. You were a pretty impressive demigod after all, and now you looked so weak and in need of care. Of course he was gonna give it to you.

You appreciated it even more, knowing how shy he would be normally, and took all the love happily.

“Here, I got you something. It’s gonna make you feel better” he says as he handles you some medicine. “Thanks, Frank,” you said and you noticed how he didn’t walk out your room. He looked down and his face was red. He didn’t want to leave. You got up and hugged him, and he hugged you back softly. “Stay here,” you asked, and he nodded, “of course.”

Piper

Piper would be extra sweet to you, bringing you treats and offering to spend the whole day with you, to take care of you. She would accept whatever decision you make, secretly hoping you’d choose her company.

She’d ask you to do something with her, to spend time, and find some excuse to take care of you. She’d also ask if you’re just up to resting, if you said yes, she’d hold you softly as you rest against her. She wouldn’t dare to move.

In a modern AU, just know she'a gonna take a lot of pictures just because she thinks you look cute like this.

She’d probably consume some media as your eyes are closed, or read something, and she feels the happiest she’s been in a while, after everything she went through, to have you just relying on her on your sick days.

“You’re really cute, you know that?” he said softly, as you mumbled in your sleep at the sound of her voice. She chuckled as she tried to keep as still as possible. Her quiet laugh filled the room, other than your soft (or loud) snoring. She sighed happily, and gave you soft scratches, putting you into a deeper sleep.

Hazel

She would spend all of your sick days trying to find an healing spell that wasn’t too rough for your simple cold. Or whatever it was.

However, she’d do everything you ask her to do. Like, if you pleaded her to stop searching for a cure, and just spend some proper time with you, she would leave everything she was doing just to make you happy. Even tho she’d still try to find something when you’re asleep or closing your eyes.

She’d also be kind of shy at first, and wouldn’t make the first move to cuddle you if you didn’t ask first, but she was very happy when you did and she couldn’t help from enjoying herself when she got to hold you close.

She also saw you as someone she wanted to protect in that moment, and now she had you all to herself.

“Hazel, come here.” You whined as she repeated some spells silently. “Wait, I think I found the one.” You just sighed and she stopped reading out loud. “What is it?” she asked quietly.“Just spend time with me, please?” you asked, and she smiled shyly. “Alright, I’m coming.” In a few minutes you were in her arms, and in a few minutes you were out. You wondered how you were feeling so much better after a few hours’s sleep, but you quickly got your answer,

Nico

He would try to act like it was not a big deal (and it probably wasn’t) but he also wouldn’t leave your side. No way he would, genuinely. You’re stuck with him. And you couldn’t feel luckier. THE Nico Di Angelo cared about being with you through your illness, your sweet sweet (and kinda emo) boyfriend.

He would be way sweeter than usual, he’s usually pretty sweet, but he would get not only protective, but even sweeter than normal.

He’d stop you from getting out of your bed, and force to move to his cabin, because it was a “more sterilised place” than your room and you would feel better easier.

You complied, because he was right. And he cuddled you when you asked him to, even tho he tried to hide how happy he was about it.

“Hey, what if you get sick because of this?” you ask as you snuggle against his chest, “then it’d be your turn to take care of me,” you chuckle weekly, as you let out a few coughs. “You’d be insufferable,” you complain jokingly. “I always am.”

Will

Will would honestly be the best AND worst option for this. He would make you feel better immediately and be the most annoying one about it too. Gods, he wouldn’t let you do anything. He’d keep saying everything he was asking you to do was “doctor’s orders”, and not only that, you genuinely had no other choice but to do it.

We all know how annoying Will gets otherwise. You just couldn’t deal with that. And he was very proud about it.

He’d take you to the infirmary until you feel better, and trust me, you’re going to get better fast. He’s putting all of his care on you and he’s not gonna stop until you’re 100% healed.

But, if he were the one to get sick instead, he probably wouldn’t let you do much for him. He’d never really say no to some pampering.

Pairing(s): Characters x Gn!sick!Reader (except for Reyna’s)

Character(s): Percy, Annabeth, Grover,Nico, Leo, Frank, Hazel, Jason, Piper, Reyna (platonic)

Me rn:

Percy Jackson

Honestly great at it and it’s honestly not expected but also sort of expected

Hard to explain

But it’s likely that he just brings you back to the apartment he lives in with sally, Paul, and ofc Estelle because even though he sort of doesn’t want to admit it, he needs help

So (imagining you’re super sick) even if you’re a stubborn one, it’s too embarrassing to act up in front of Sally

Someone who is so caring that she makes soup just for you, checks in on you, gives you extra blankets in case, honestly anything really

This transformed more into a Sally taking care of you than Percy but I’m getting there

One day Sally has to go out for an errand and takes Estelle with her, Paul went off to work or something

Leaving you two alone and you basically a burden/j

Also… free to complain all you want

Now if you’re stubborn and make it difficult for him he will fr mock you

Literally why are you being this way when Estelle behaves way better

And she’s a baby

Eventually though, cmon now

Just be willing and maybe he’ll kiss you

As if he isn’t doing so while you doze off on your meds

I’d give him a solid 6/10, not because he’s not my fav character or anything

Of course not

Annabeth Chase

Ideal in theory not in practice

She knows everything there is to know- hell, if she didn’t after years of being a demigod and suffering from injuries then strike me down

Well- no actually I take that back

Annabeth doesn’t actually know a lot aside from when she gets sick

Which happens rarely and goes away as quick as it comes

So now she’s here with you all bundled up-

Also, if you try to be stubborn and act like a big baby, she’s having none of it

You will rest and you will eat to consume your meds

End of story

I don’t make the rules 😭

She will, however, be pleased if you’re happy to comply and get you back to good asap

Although she does bumble a bit at the start- she eventually learns quickly

Which is to be expected

When she first started to struggle with what do to she’s too prideful to ask for help so she settles on asking you how to do well by you

Then she realizes how stupid (or unwise) it was to act that way and decides to just ask any of the Apollo kids she knows won’t tease her

Which is more than half

Only because she knew you’d get worse

I’d give her a solid 7/10

It’s not any longer because she gets to business and gets you healed pretty quick so 🤷

Grover Underwood

I’d say he’s pretty decent at taking care of you too

I mean he probably knows a lot about herbs and stuff that could help you alongside modern medicine that you’re likely taking

Plus when you can’t sleep for whatever reason (*cough*cough* congestion*cough*) he’ll obviously put that humidifier on but also play you a song

Either to help with sleep or just make you feel better

Really depends

Also we all know he’s a saytr

So he’s likely taking care of you despite needing to be elsewhere

And if that duty calls quickly? He feels SO bad 😭 I’m not even exaggerating

He’ll apologize ten times over and try to make up for it

Instead of getting your sleep and rest it just results in you spending that time reassuring Grover

Which, in your opinion, is a time well spent

But not to Grover

Anyways if you’re reluctant to let him take care of you then he’s constantly hassling you to stay resting

Literally got to the point where campers would just see you running by, and see Grover not too behind

Or it’d be you sitting somewhere and Grover trying to convince you why going back would be a good idea

Now, if you’re more than happy to rest and take your medicine?

Absolute angel in Grover’s eyes

Literally makes his life 10000x easier

Him being him, he just ends up helping you heal and recover faster than you normally would’ve otherwise

So honestly? You can try to be stubborn all you want but it’s only going to make you suffer 😭

Not much for him but that’s because besides his nervous energy, he’s probably the best here in terms of actually helping you become unsick

Nico Di Angelo

He’ll try his best to help you out 😭

Which he does a pretty decent job at, all he does is rely on books and what he’s heard from others

So it’s time for Nico to rawdog helping you out because frankly, he’s always been the opposite of a normal person

So, why would he ever get sick?

(Bluds body temperature is probably colder than the Antarctic)

He does the basics like making you drink medicine for your symptoms (e.g. cough, sore throat) and making you soup to the best of his capabilities

If you’re the type of person to be whiny and like to be cared after then he’d sort of tease you for it in his strange little way

Now, if you’re super stubborn and insist on him not helping you-

He takes it personally

Like I’m not even joking

He’ll just side eye you

You’re acting like you weren’t just dying of suffocation before he put the humidifier on a few seconds ago

And he lets that known

So, he asks why you’re being so stubborn and let him spoon feed you‼️

(Only because you ended up being bundled in a blanket burrito and Nico didn’t want to go through putting you in one again afterwards)

Too much hassle

Also applies if you’re being stubborn and he has to forcibly feed you)

He’s honestly getting annoyed at this point so you give him a proposition

You’ll let him take care of you if he gives you cuddles

Now, normally Nico would be so done but he couldn’t resist

So now here you both are underneath the covers

But then Nico ruins it

“Yknow I was gonna cuddle you regardless” (of it you complied or not)

6/10 just for that last comment

(Doing an actual story, will link HERE)

Leo Valdez

Someone please help him

Nah just kidding

Leo is definitely way better with machines than with humans

That’s a fact

But he knew his mom long enough to know the basics of everything

I don’t make the rules, that woman definitely taught him everything there is to know

So here you are on the bed of your room as you hear Leo’s racket going on in the kitchen

Emmie and Jo went out and took a few residents with them, including one of your favorite residents:

Georgina

The ones that stayed behind were either asleep or bundled away under the covers of their beds

(Ignoring those doing chores)

Especially since it was now winter, despite the waystations warmth, a chill seemed to have made it way inside.

Eventually Leo makes his way back up and set down a tray

It had a soup you learned to become familiar with

It was Caldo de Res

So obviously you gobbled that shit up like all the other Mexican foods Leo had made before

Eventually Leo makes you take your medicine because even though he’s all about playing around and stuff, he still likes to care for you

Now, because it’s likely snowing, Leo had to resist and refuse to let you out

You’re already sick, it could get so much worse

But you didn’t listen

Hence you running around like a maniac outside the station yelling as Leo chases you

Afterwards he scolds you but when you point out that fact that he was laughing when he was chasing after you- he shuts up real quick

Leo does realize how boring it probably is for you though so after going back inside he tries to be a source of entertainment for you

He tries to find board games and he luckily does

Which ends with you two moving to the living room (?) or common area

By the time emmie and the other residents return, the tower you built while playing Jenga was sky high and skinny asf

Then Leo crashed it and you both obviously yelled at it

Then Leo got told off for distracting you from resting (although it was done kindly)

Later after dinner, Leo snuck into your room at night and once again began to try to rid you of your boredom

you two began giggling and gossiping in the middle of the night

Then went to bed when someone knocked as kindly asked for you two to quiet down

Leo was embarrassed 💀

Frank Zhang

Surprisingly good at taking care of you

Only saying it’s surprising because I’ve never considered it before

He obviously takes care of your basic needs like meds and just covers you needing anything else like rest or water

If you’re stubborn to actually try to get better- then he’s definitely worried but also confused

Why are you acting this way and also, please just let him help you

Which is honestly sad because even if he’d like to stay by your side for more than a few hours- he really isn’t able to due to praetor duties

I mean it’s a surprise you got a pass on your chores/ duties depending on what your role is

Will definitely feel terrible for having to leave to go do his job but eventually finds someone trusted to look after you

Likely someone indebted to him

(He’d feel a bit sorry for whoever it is if you’re particularly resistful)

Let’s say you actually get sick and there’s no outside forces that can interfere

Frank is a pretty top notch- although a bit anxious - doctor

Likely learned a lot about the healing aspect of Apollo back when being his kid was what Frank wanted most

So he knows a lot from that and is really attentive

After giving you some medicine you had seemingly been knocked out cold so it was natural for Frank to turn down the lights

Before he left the room he decided to give you a kiss on the cheek

You were actually still awake and despite your boyfriends more than accommodating care-

You will be teasing him tomorrow using this instance

Overall I’d give Frank a 9/10

‘He is the worlds most perfect man’

Hazel Levesque

Have you seen her lead the other Roman’s as praetor and even before then ? Yea she’s getting you bundled up and fed

No ifs or buts

This is how she is overall but if you try being stubborn she genuinely doesn’t see why you would be

Like why wouldn’t you want to get better??

Also please don’t sneak out to the weaponry or something because she literally CANT give you special treatment 😭

Despite her seemingly tough demeanor, she really is a fool for you

Not actually- but miss girl is smitten with you

So she sort of takes it easy, occasionally finding her voice and scolding you as lightly as she can

She tries her best to treat you but eventually gets advice and help from others in camp who know more than she does

She ofc knows the basics: consume vitamin c, rest, drink medicine, etc

But she can’t be too sure

I also honestly think she’s way better than Nico, because I didn’t include it but he definitely got some wayward damned spirit to help him out

But not her

Not that that’s bad, but she’s definitely more capable

I do think she bumbled a bit

She had ordered some other campers who specialized in healing to help her out

Before then, she had been taking care of you herself

So when they get there and see her sort of make shift stuff- she’s a bit embarrassed

Yknow, if the blush on her cheeks are anything to go by

Because we’ve already established that she’s better than Nico, I’ll give her a 8/10

Because she’s really good at taking care of you, really caring overall

But 🤷

Jason Grace

Best way to say how he is at taking care of you is mediocre

He isn’t constantly attentive but just the right amount that you feel like it’s enough

Esprit he’s busy with the school he’s attending- then he’ll have to sneak out just to see you and take care of you

If school isn’t in session then he’s more than happy to go over and take care of things for you

Like doing chores, cooking food and actually taking care of you

Doesn’t mind all that much if you try to resist being treated because it’s likely that he’s encountered people who are WAY worse

Ik this is him supposed to be taking care of you but I think it’d be so funny that you’re just constantly in and out of consciousness that you only remember small snippets

In which Jason has to fill in for you and all you remember is Jason in the distance

Pretty out of place but the idea of it is so funny to me 😭

Imagine being so kind and your s/o not remembering any of it

You’d still believe him though, why should you?

Also I said it’s mid but like mid leaning good so I’ll give him a 6/10

Not that he was terrible or anything but just because I feel like it suits him

Idk 😭

Piper Mcclean

THE BEST IM NOT EXAGGERATING

The medicine- eating- cooking part is alright

It isn’t much different from the others averages and not much to take note of in all honesty

But what is really the cherry on top is when after having a mind splitting headache- you’ve finally managed to fall asleep

Being a demigod and all- you immediately hear when Piper enters the room

Each creak the floor board gives continued until Piper has reached the end of the bed

Not that it’s disturbing you in anyway

So there you are snuggled in bed and you feel a weight added next to you where the bed is pushing down

You feel hands massaging your scalp and Piper -knowing how you’ve suffered with head pain- starts to sing for you

It isn’t unknown or unheard of to sing for someone to heal (demigod or non demigod wise)

So when you immediately start to feel better you can feel your would ascending into the heavens

Not actually- because that’d be the opposite affect of the singing but you get what I’m going for

Anyway aside from that she’s really attentive and sweet but I just had that idea come to me strongly idk why

Overall id rate her a 7/10

That’s because her singing is divine but her caring aspect is mediocre

Reyna Ramírez-Arellano x F!Reader (for the first half)

(Ex: realized hunters of Artemis don’t get sick after finishing toa)

Literally legendary at taking care of you

Although she is a bit of a dictator when it comes to you being slippery and running off- it’s still pretty great

She was praetor for how long now? Yea a while so she was bound to have learned some things and after joing the hunters it’s only more reason to

Which if you’re a hunter and sick (only confusing but let’s go with it) you need to get your health back up to be in optimal fighting condition so theres literally no room for being stubborn

You need to get well soon and that’s an order basically

So Reyna will bundle you up, (though seeing as you’re more than happy to be cooperative) its only done to make you warm

(Gn! Reader but still platonic)

Now if this is while Reyna is praetor then she’s still enforced this strict persona

And seeing as she’s here taking care of you-

That’s only more reason to

Unfortunately she won’t really have time (seeing that being praetor is really unsustainable long term with the loss of sleep and sleep schedule changes)

But when she does her presence is soothing and likely the only reason you were able to actually get well pretty fast

I don’t have much besides she knows what she’s doing (likely has gotten stupid colds form stress) and is really serious about it

Would give her a 9.5/10 but I’ll change it to a 10/10 because of how fast you recover

-

Reader is on a quest with the seven + dating one of them. There's a line in this new prophecy:

"An unseen betrayal will break a heart, from this life one shall part."

Whoever Reader is dating believes that she has betrayed them (making them the broken hearted and her the fated betrayer) through a misunderstanding/manipulation from an enemy and, unable to kill her, they instead abandoned her upon a monster infested island.

Only to later learn the horrifying truth:

They are the betrayer (by abandoning her to certain death) and she is the broken hearted, and Y/N, judging from the final line, is dead. They do go back to search for her, finding her weapon broken somewhere on the island as well as her personal belongings and a small campsite long since empty, and try to reconcile with the fact that they killed the women they loved. Maybe not with their own hand but by leaving her in an unlivable place alone.

But Y/N is alive.

She just doesn't know who she once was.

Something out there is collecting near dead demigods and saving them, wiping their memories, and using them (I think it has something to do with Mnemosyne, the goddess of memory and mother of the muses, or at least some artifact infused with her power). Some have small memories of their previous lives and all recall their "reaper", the person or thing that killed them. Y/N has parted from one life (as the prophecy claimed she would) and now lives another, using a new name and fighting with new companions, having only a few things of her past:

A gift from her once love and small happy memories of them, and what she thinks is a vision of her reaper, unable to realize that her love and her supposed killer are the same person.

Jason standing in the storm.

Percy's green eyes glowing with rage.

Annabeth, her dagger glimmering dangerously.

Leo surrounded by fire.

Frank glaring down at her, arrow in hand.

Piper's blade at her throat.

Hazel's rage as the earth rumbles.

She thinks this is the moment she died and also believes them to have killed whoever it was that she loved, wishing they were here together and wondering who it was that she used to be, never knowing the truth of it all. Imagine the heartbreak of the moment they finally find one another:

They're looking at the love of their life, returned to them at last, happy and in love all over again.

hazel who came the first time eating your out:3

hazel who the first time fingering you every two minutes was asking you if she's doing it right

hazel who the first time scissoring grabbed your tits to hold her steady while riding your clit

hazel who the first time you ate her out was whining the whole time, she was in pure bliss

hazel who loves teasing you in public, she strokes your thigh with her hands under the table, she'll brush her finger against your clit

hazel who fucks you with her strap late at night when her mom isn't home, you can be as loud as you want and so can she

hazel who hates when you tease her, running your finger up and down her slit makes her all sad and needy

hazel who takes advantage of your hand kink, she likes to put her hand around your neck while fucking you in missionary

hazel who is the queen of aftercare, she'll literally make you tea as if she wasn't ramming into you a couple minutes ago, babbling about breeding you

hazel who has a massiveeee breeding kink, she was so ashamed about it but then when you reassured her you didn't care and that you liked it, she literally yaps about breeding you while pounding into you

pairing: percy jackson x jason grace x leo valdez x frank zhang x gn!reader x annabeth chase x piper mclean x hazel levesque

tags: polyamorous relationship, percabeth frazel & jiper, wholesome fluff, physical affection, protective!seven

while your seven partners are very protective of you and would do anything to keep you out of harm's way, they do let you go on their quest with you! they honestly prefer to have you around, so they can assure your safety themselves!

out of the seven of them, percy, jason and annabeth are the most protective ones! percy and jason always throw themselves into any danger to keep you safe, while annabeth's protectiveness over you also takes place outside of battles

percy also takes on the spot of the most affectionate one out of the group, with only leo being more affectionate than him! those two boys constantly brag about dating you and have their hands all over you whenever they can!

in comparison, frank and hazel both enjoy physical affection as well, but they aren't big on public displays of affection, so those two only cuddle with you or kiss you when they're alone with you

the seven don't just date you, but there are also a few pairings amongst each other! for one, percy and annabeth are the couple that has been around for the longest time now

but frank and hazel, as well and piper and jason also are dating not just you but each other as well! and with how open your relationship is and how close you all are already, it wouldn't be a surprise if certain other pairings ended up happening eventually, like jason and leo or piper and annabeth…

speaking of piper and annabeth, the two of them dote on you the most! they certainly have a soft side for you that they often get teased about by percy and leo!

while traveling to fulfill the prophecy, you function as an emotional support to your seven significant others. things were never planned that way, but without you around, they are certain they would've lost their sanity by now

you always try to lend a hand or an ear to them, wherever they need help right now! being part of a big prophecy isn't easy, but you want to make any part you can of this journey easier for them! even if all you can offer is a hug and a reminder that you love them, that'll be enough!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Summary: It’s the night of your senior prom, and your boyfriend, who is your date to the prom, is nowhere to be found. If you guys do not leave in 10 minutes, you are going to be late. Hazel, the twin sister of your boyfriend, who has had a crush on you since before you started dating her brother, comes to your rescue and takes you to the prom.

***Basically, the one episode of FRIENDS, except the boyfriend never comes…or does he?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“Where is he?” you ask to no one in particular.

You and your friends from the fight club decided to get ready at your house before heading to prom together in a limo.

Everyone is ready to go with their dates; they are just waiting for your boyfriend to get here.

Except Hazel, who did not ask anyone to the prom because she still has feelings for you, even if she knows she can never have you. She also was not going to go because she did not want to have to see you and Julian slow dancing together, but she wanted to be with everyone while you were getting ready for tonight.

You started dating Julian a couple of months ago. He was on the football team with Jeff and Tim.

Five minutes pass after you ask your rhetorical question, and it is starting to look like he will not be coming, which is starting to become a pattern you realize.

Even though it's only been a couple of months, more often than not, he does not show up or cancels at the last minute.

“Guys, I don’t think he’s coming,” you sigh out and turn to look at your friends, who all have sad faces.

“I’m sorry, y/n,” Isabell says, her hand linked with Josie’s.

“It’s okay, I guess you guys can head out. I do not want you guys to be late, and I don’t think I want to go anymore,” you say sadly, tears beginning to form in your eyes.

“Are you sure?” Brittany asks while coming over to hug you, and you return it while trying not to get your now smudged makeup on her pretty dress.

“Yeah,” you say while sniffling.

Everyone else comes up to you, hugs you, and looks back at you one last time before heading out to the limo.

Soon, it is just you and Hazel in your living room.

You and Hazel became good friends after you joined the fight club, but sometimes you wondered if you liked her more than just a friend. When you started dating Julian, you came to terms with the fact that you were bisexual, but never worked up the courage to tell everyone, even though you knew they would all be happy for you.

“I’m sorry about Julian,” you hear Hazel quietly.

“It’s not your fault your brother is the way he is,” you tell her.

“I know, but I still feel like it is because he is my twin brother,” she says while looking away.

She can’t get over how pretty you look tonight, all for her stupid brother to stand you up.

You walk over towards Hazel, which makes her look at you.

You put your hands on her shoulders before you say, “Hazel. It is not your fault. You are two completely different people. Sorry to say this about your brother, but he is a stupid jerk who keeps bailing on me and ghosting me. And to be honest, you being here with me is making me feel better.”

She smiles at that, “Really?”

“Of course.”

You smile at each other before you clear your throat.

“Alright, now that plans have changed, what do you want to do tonight?” you ask her.

“Umm, I am not sure. I was just going to go back home and watch Bound for the hundredth time,” she tells you.

“I love that movie. Corky is so hot. She made me realize I was for sure bisexual,” as you finish your sentence, your eyes widen when you realize that you just came out to Hazel.

“What…you’re…wait. You’re bi?” she asks incredulously.

“Uh, yeah. Well, someone else made me first wonder, but that is besides the point,” you say shyly. You can feel your face heat up at the confession, so you look away from her.

“Who…who made you first wonder?” she asks.

You look her in the eye and say, “Don’t make me say it.”

“Does anyone else know? Does Julian know?” she asks, thankfully changing the subject.

“No, you are the first person to know.”

“Really?” she says with the cutest smile on her face.

You just nod.

You two sit in silence for a couple of minutes before you hear Hazel gasp.

“I just had the best idea!” she announces.

“Oh yeah? What is your idea?” you ask her.

“Since you’re all dressed up for prom, why don’t you and I go together?”

“Hazel, you don’t have anything to wear, let alone even have a ticket,” you remind her.

“Yes, I do! Julian kept his ticket on the fridge, and I am sure it’s still there. And I can run up to my room and change into something nicer quickly!!” she says, excited about her idea.

You think about it for a couple of seconds.

Why would you skip the one night you had been looking forward to since you were a freshman, all because your stupid boyfriend decided to ghost you?

You deserved better.

“Okay! Let’s do it!” you say.

You both head to her car, and not even 10 minutes later, you arrive at your house and see Julian’s car in the driveway.

“Umm, maybe you should stay here?” Hazel suggests.

“Yeah, good idea. I do not want to see him right now,” you tell her.

“I’ll be quick, you can change to music if you want,” she says as she gets out of the car and runs into her house.

A few minutes later, Hazel comes out with a ticket in her hand and wearing a tuxedo that does wonders for her. She is absolutely gorgeous, you think. You blush at the thought.

“I’m back,” she says as she gets into the driver’s seat.

“Hazel…you…you look amazing. Thank you for doing this.”

“Anything for you,” she says while smiling, which makes you blush even more.

You two are silent as you head to the school.

When you arrive, you both head to the doors to the gymnasium, where prom is being held.

When you walk in, you hand your tickets to Mr. G, who is at the little booth, he says hi to you both before telling you what to expect once you get into the actual gym.

You both thank him and set off to find your friends.

Not even a minute in, you hear a squeal.

“OMGGGG, YOU’RE HERE!!” You turn to see Brittany and Isabel run up to you and give you the biggest hug ever.

“Yeah! Hazel and I decided to come together. She took Julian's ticket,” you say, and turned to smile at Hazel, who is already watching you,

Brittany and Isabell go to hug Hazel and to tell her thanks before they lead us to the rest of the fight club.

You wave at all your friends, just as a new song comes on.

“Care to dance with me, y/n?” Hazel asks you while bowing and extending her hand.

“Of course, Hazel,” you say, and both smile at each other.

You, Hazel, and all your friends head to the dance floor and have the absolute best time ever. You all dance for about an hour before deciding you need a drink.

“I’m going to go get a drink, do you want one?” you whisper-yell into Hazel’s ear since it is so loud.

“Yeah, but let me come with you,” she replies, and you nod.

As you are walking towards the drinks, you feel Hazel put her hand on your lower back. You assume it is to help guide you through the people who are everywhere.

Once you read the table, you grab a cup and fill it with punch, “What do you want, Hazel?” you ask her, “A water, please,” she responds with, and you fill a cup of water and hand it to her.

She thanks you and drinks the water, while you drink your punch.

You're about to ask her something when the first slow song of the night comes on.

“Can I have this dance, Hazel?” you ask.

“Oh! Um…yeah!” she agrees, but is a little confused, because she knows slow dances can be romantic.

You take her hand and lead her to the dance floor near all your friends.

You turn towards her and loop your arms around her shoulders, while she just stands still.

“You can put your hands on my waist, Hazel,” you tell her, and she just widens her eyes.

“O-okay,” she says before timidly putting her hands on you, awkwardly.

“Closer, Hazel,” you say because there is a foot between you both.

She takes a tiny step closer to you, so you tell her again…and again, until there’s less than 5 inches between you.

“Better” you say and smile.

She smiles back.

For a couple of minutes, you are just slow dancing with each other.

“It was you,” you say randomly.

“What?” Hazel asks.

“It was you,” you say again.

“What was me?” she asks confused.

“You were the first person that made me wonder if I was bisexual” you admit.

She pulls back to really look at you.

“Really? Me?”

“Yeah, ever since we first sparred together during the fight club and you punched me in the nose. And I may or may not have had underlying feelings for you” you tell her.

“But…but why didn’t you say anything?” she asks.

“I was scared and I didn’t know what those feelings I had were.” you say, while looking down because theres no way you can look her in the eye right now.

“So you started to date my idiot brother,” she states, and all you can do is nod.

“Y/n” she says, but you continue to look at the floor.

“Y/n, look at me. Please” she asks again, and you look at her.

She puts her on on your face and says, “Thank you for telling me. I may or may not have had crush on you since I punched you in the nose,” she admits.

You laugh at that, and then she laughs.

“I’m sorry for not telling you sooner,” you say.

“Don’t be sorry, I am glad you trusted me enough to tell me that you are bi…and that you had a crush on me” she says, smiling.

“I think I’m going to break up with Julian. I deserve better,” you say and quickly look at her lips before continuing, “So much better.”

You feel her start to lean in before you feel a tap on your shoulder.

You turn your head to the side and see Julian.

You let go of Hazel and turn around completely to face Julian.

“Babe, I am so sorry. I forgot tonight was prom, I swear.” he starts, but you silence him with your hand.

“You forgot? I reminded you five times this past week that tonight is prom, and you ghosted me!” you state loudly, which earns you, Hazel, and Julian and audience, even the music turns off.

“No babe, I know you remineded me, but Jeff needed something and-” you cut him off before he can make any more excuses.

“Stop with all the excuses! I am tired of it! This is not the first time and I know it won’t be the last. In face, we’re DONE!!” you say loudly.

“What…you can’t break up with me,” he says.

“Oh really? Because I think I just did!” you say and turn around to face Hazel, tears starting to form in your eyes.

“Thank you for tonight Hazel, but I think I am going to go home now. See you on Monday” you say before running out of the gym towards your house, and before anyone can see the tears pouring down your face.

After you left, Hazel looks at Julian and says, “I can’t believe you treated her like that. She never deserved you.”

“Oh really? And you do? Please, she would never want you.” Julian says, tormenting Hazel.

“Oh really? She came to prom with me because I asked her after you ditched her to play video games, she told me personal things that I sure you do not know, and she told me that she was going to break up with you before you humiliated her in front of everyone. I love you, Julian because you’re my brother, but sometimes I really fucking hate your ass.” Hazel says before leaving Julian in the middle of the dance floor, embarrassed.

Hazel heads to the group and they all hug her.

“You better go run after her, she probably did not get far, but she needs you, Hazel,” Josie says, and everyone nods their heads in agreement.

“You all knew didn’t you?” she asks

“Obviously”

“Duh”

“Of course”

Is all she hear.

“Okay, I’m going to go. See you all later”

“GO GET YOUR WOMAN” you hear PJ yell.

Hazel laugh and run towards your car, but quickly come to a stop after she exit the gym.

You’re sitting on the ground by Hazel’s car, tears running down your face.

You look up when you hear someone come towards you.

“Hi” Hazel says

“Hi” you reply back.

“Can I…?” Hazel asks while pointing to the ground besides you, and you nod.

“I’m sorry for what he said to you. He never deserved you. And I’m glad you had the courage to break up with him in front of the whole school.”

You huff a laugh at that. If only he didn’t also embarrass you in front of the whole, you think.

You lean your head on her shoulder and say, “I just wish I could go back in time and never say yes to when he asked me out. I don’t think I ever actually liked him, to be honest with you.” you tell Hazel.

She moves and puts her arm around your shoulder, pulling you closer. You look up at her, and she looks down at you and wipes away the tears with her free hand.

“Can I take you home?” she asks.

“Yeah, I would like that.” you respond.

You both get up off the floor, Hazel helping you up, and get into her car.

When you get to your house, you sit in Hazel’s car and just look at your house.

“Do you want to come in?” you ask her.

“Yeah.”

You lead her up to your room and close the door.

“I’m going to change in my pjs, do you want something cozy to wear?”

Hazel thinks for a couple of seconds before nodding yes.

You go through your drawers to find something for Hazel. You soon find your favorite shirt and shorts and hand them to her.

“The bathroom is through there,” you say while pointing towards a door.

She says thank you as she grabs the clothes and heads into the bathroom.

You grab your coziest pajams and start to change in the middle of the room, not realizing that Hazel came out of the bathroom while you were changing your shirt.

“Oh shit! I’m sorry!” you hear hazel say and see her quickly turning around to give you privacy.

“Hazel.” you say, but she just shakes her head, still looking away.

You slowly walk towards her, and grab her tux from her hands to lay them on your desk.

She still isn’t looking at you, so you go in front of her.

“Hazel” you whisper, and she slowly opens her eyes.

“Let’s watch a movie” you suggest while grabbing her hand to lead her to your bed.

You get on and make yourself comfortable, but Hazel is just standing next to the bed.

“You can get on the bed, you know” you tell her with a giggle.

“Yeah…Yeah I know,” at that, she climbs onto the bed next to you.

“What do you want to watch?” you ask her.

“Um, how about Fast Times at Ridgemont High?” she suggests?

“Good choice,” you say while putting it on.

You both are silent while watching the movie before you look at her and say, “Thank you again for everything tonight. You made my night a lot better and I really appreciate it.”

“Of course, anything for you, y/n” she says while looking at you too.

You both go back to watching the movie, and you subtly move closer to her, but of course she notices. She moves to make it more comfortable for you to be up against her, her arm around your shoulder again.

You look up at her again, “Hazel” you whisper.

“Yeah?” she sasys as she looks down at you.

You don’t say anything, but you do lean up and press your lips against hers.

She gasps in surprise, but quickly melts into the kiss.

A kiss that was so perfect, you both wish you had done this sooner.

The movie is soon forgotten, as you both get lost in each other.
