obsession - abby x reader
a/n: this is super short just cause i really wanted to see how well it would do before i wrote more.
“and, i know this is so fucking weird and probably super sudden but i am in love with you. do you uh— wanna… go on a date or—“
asking your own reflection isn’t the best way to practice asking out abby, is it?
you’ve been in love with abby anderson since the day you two sat together in english. and now, fresh out of high school, you both are taking a gap year, along with your friend olivia, who you forgot you needed to give a ride to the bar you were going to. fuck.
the car door closes with a loud thud! as olivia enter the vehicle.
“hey dude, you ready for this shit? gonna be lit. and who knows? maybe you and abby will get some alone time—“
olivia does not get to finish that sentence before she is met with a slap to her arm.
“liv, she doesn’t like me. i’ve got no chance, okay? i’ve just got to suffer in silence.”
“that is single-handedly the saddest thing you have ever said. i’m telling you, abby likes confidence. if you’re direct, she’ll probably say yes. besides, didn’t you buy her that gift? the one wish willow? i think that’s pretty romantic.”
when you both arrive at the bar, abby is already waiting. as soon as she sees you both, she grins. she’s wearing a black tank top with a pair of jeans.
“well look who finally decided to show up?”
“fuck off, we’re only fifteen minutes late.”
the night was a blur, especially when your mind was a little… distracted. but, it eventually had to come to an end.
“ugh, i hate uber, my card keeps declining.”
abby scoffed as she tried once more, only to be left with the same error message. it was almost like you could see the idea forming in olivia’s eyes when she turns to you.
“hey, since you’re already giving me a ride, why don’t you drop abby off too?”
your eyes locked onto olivia’s, giving her a look.
“oh— yeah. i mean sure, if you want. i-it’s on the way anyway.”
you wondered if abby could hear how loud your heart was pounding. you needed to take a breath. you’ve driven abby places before… but olivia was usually in the car. and in this case she’d get dropped off first—
“you’re the best, apple.”
abby had called you apple ever since she discovered that you in fact, hated the taste of them. did you dislike the nickname, though? no.
traffic was light, and it took you around 10 minutes to arrive at liv’s place. and now she is walking towards her front door. and now you’re in a car with abby fucking anderson. alone.
you turn your head to meet abby’s eyes.
great job, keep it short and simple.
“why would i not be okay, abby?”
“you’ve just been… really off lately. i feel like you’re avoiding me. and you always seem nervous…”
“yeah, i’ve just… works been stressing me out an—“
“are you in love with me?”
your stomach dropped. time stopped.
“fuck. yes. i’m sorry i should have told you sooner i just.. i didn’t know what id do if you said no.”
“well, i have feelings for you too. i have for as long as i can remember”
it would’ve been perfect if you hadn’t just imagined that.
“what? no. of course not.”
abby starts laughing, not too hard, just… there.
“yeah cause that’d be totally weird. sorry. i don’t know why i even brought it up. that was stupid.”
stupid. right. you didn’t know how to respond, but you were saved by the fact that you were pulling into her driveway.
“well, here we are. see you, abby.”
abby gave a small nod before leaving the car, closing the door.
“wait, before you go i just…”
now’s your chance! tell her how you feel!
“you know what? i forgot.”
abby gave a small laugh before saying her goodbyes. and walking towards her house. and you forgot to give her the gift. fuck.
you reach into your bag, grabbing out the “One Wish Willow”
“you only get one wish… dumb piece of shit.”
you open the box, and jump when music starts blaring from it.
“i wish abby anderson loved me more than anyone in the whole world.”
“what am i even thinking? this is stu—“
it suddenly doesn’t feel as stupid when you see abby walking towards your car.
did you it? let me know in my asks PLEASE! or if you have any suggestions!
