Write some Fanfiction! Now!

Muse A has been looking for a place to live for awhile now, having recently moved out of their parents’ place, bunking with a friend here and there. After searching a few ads online, Muse A finds a nice place just within their budget. Even if Muse A has to share with two others, it’s a steal that they would regret passing up. When they meet up with the other residents, Muse B and Muse C, Muse A realizes fairly quickly that they are a couple, one that doesn’t mind flaunting their passion for each other. Muse A draws the conclusion that the reason for rent being so reasonable is most likely that others would not want to be subjected to the couples’ open displays of affection, but Muse A still decides to take the room; Muse B and Muse C’s intimacy doesn’t really bother them. Muse C is usually at home the most, while Muse B tends to work long, spontaneous shifts. Though Muse A attempts to keep to their own business, Muse C seems extremely interested in whatever they’re doing, tending to find ways to be around them. Muse C’s growing infatuation with Muse A becomes quite obvious, especially when Muse C does small things like brushing their hands against Muse A’s, or casually playing with Muse A’s hair. Muse A does begin to find themselves attracted to Muse C, but doesn’t want to risk getting evicted, or having bad blood with Muse B. Despite the potential drama of an affair, Muse A finds themselves denying less and less to Muse C as every day passes. 

Muse A is optimistic as tryouts approach, but the closer they get to D day the more Muse C (Muse B’s significant other and star athlete) invites themselves to practice sessions. It’s uncomfortable for Muse A to be shaking their ‘pom-poms’ in front of Muse C, considering Muse A’s crushed on Muse C from afar for several years but Muse A tries to be discreet about it. One afternoon when Muse B isn’t able to make it for practice, they send Muse C as a stand-in and things get even more awkward. Muse C is more ‘hands-on’ than Muse A anticipates and Muse C confess their growing attraction to Muse A. When Muse C sees an opportunity to make a move, they seize it and Muse A doesn’t stop them (at least not right away). Now Muse A must decide whether a fling with Muse C is worth upsetting their chances of acing tryouts and risking the friendship they’ve just started to repair with Muse B.
