Tw: mentions of blood, injury, violence (it's js in the beginning, it gets better dw)
The girls had sealed the honmoon, sending Gwi-ma back to the demon realm, trapping him there. Rumi had stopped hiding her demon markings, the girls accepted her with open arms. After all, she was still their Rumi. Alot had happened, so many obstacles, but the girls overcame them. Together. After all of that demon fighting and emotional turmoil, the girls took a very deserved, three month long break.
Though they got a break from their idol work, they didn't fully get a break from their jobs as hunters. While they did manage to seal the honmoon and send the demons back to the underworld, there were the occasional few that hadn't been sealed away.
Tonight was one of those nights, where a stray demon decided to be a pain in the a-
Like usual, they felt it. They knew there was a demon stirring up trouble and reluctantly left their penthouse. They ran along the roofs of houses, quickly and stealthily approaching where they felt the demon's presence. They jump down from the building only to see the demon being thrown cross the street, straight at a wall by a woman with...three tails and fox ears? Dressed in a beautiful flowing kimono, eyes sharp and intimidating. They stare at the woman in awe, taking in her striking features, absolutely mesmerised by her beauty. You glance at the girls, but don't have the chance to process their presence before the demon lunges at you again, striking you with it's weapon and sending you flying. Your back hit the wall of one of the buildings and you falls to the floor unconscious.
At that, the girls are snapped from their trance and lunged at the demon. They simultaneously slashed at it, making it explode into magenta particles. They quickly move to where your body lay unconscious on the ground. Mira checks for a pulse, "She's alive, just passed out..." Mira says, sighing. "She's bleeding! What should we do?!?" "Let's take her back to the penthouse, she's not exactly...human..So the doctor isn't an option."
The girls had taken you back to the penthouse, laying you down on the couch. Zoey wiped you down with a cloth and Mira cleaned your wounds while Rumi tried to wrap her head around what you were. "What..are you?" "A kumiho.." Zoey stated, reading off her phone. "A what?" "A kumiho, a mythical creature from Korean folklore, a nine-tailed fox known for shapeshifting into a beautiful woman to seduce men and consume their.... livers or hearts..." "So, she's a demon?" "Why would a demon be fighting another demon? That doesn't make any sense, Rumi." "I don't know okay-" She cuts herself off as she notices you starting to stir. The girls go silent, looking at you closely. "Hello..?" Your eyes snap open and you lunge forward, knocking Rumi to the floor. Before quickly shifting into your fox form and running to hide. "Wait!" The girls are chasing you around the penthouse; turning, jumping and slipping. Every time they think they've got you pinned, you prove them wrong by running off again. Mira eventually corners you and grabs you, holding you tight. She takes you back to the living room, Rumi and Zoey following close behind. You try to nip at her arms, wriggling around to try and get her to let go. "We just wanna talk!" "We aren't gonna hurt you okay?" "We just wanna know what you are.." A cloud of pink smoke appears around you and you transform back into your humanoid form, Mira's arms snug around your waist as she hold you in place. "Didn't the small human already tell you? I'm a Kumiho." "I was right!" Zoey pauses. "Hey wait a minute!-" "A demon?" Rumi asks, cutting Zoey off. "No, a Kumiho." "You eat the livers and hearts of men. You're a demon." Mira said, a slight edge to her voice. "I've long left that life behind me." You stated bluntly. "So what do you eat?" "Birds." "Oh, you mean like chicken?" "Whatever bird I catch," "Uh, anyways, where you sent by Gwi-ma?" "Who?" "Oh, you know, Gwi-ma! King of demons, ringing a bell??" "Never heard of him. Now, can I leave?" Without getting an answer, you transform back into your fox from, slipping out of Mira's arms and bolting to the door. "It was very sweet and everything for you humans to treat my wounds but I will be on my way now." Your hand is on the door knob, about to open the door when you hear a soft, "Wait.." She said it so softly, you almost missed it. "Please just stay a bit longer.. We just a have a few more questions then we'll leave you be." You look at the door then back at Rumi, her eyes are soft, almost sad. You stay standing still for a moment before sighing and reluctantly walking towards them. "Fine, but you better feed me. I'm not answering questions without compensation." You sit down on their couch, arms crossed over your chest. "I'll order takeout."
The takeout arrived and the girls had gathered around you ready to ask their questions. You eye the food sceptically, sniffing the food. It smells good. You take a bite and very quickly devour the rest. The girls stare at you in awe, they had never seen anyone eat that fast. They're sure you didn't even chew. "Was it..good?-" You clear your throat, dabbing at you mouth with a napkin. "Yes, it was lovely, thank you." "Great, now that that's out of the way, will you answer my- our questions?" "To the best of my abilities. Ask away," "Okay, so are you human or demon?" "I'm most certainly not human, but I wouldn't consider myself a demon. Atleast not the demons you're referring to." "Okay, next question, are-" "Are your ears soft? What about your tails? How come you only have three? Can I feel your hair-" "Zoey." "Right, sorry." Rumi sighs shaking her head. "As I was saying, are there any other creatures besides demons and kuhimos?" "That's kumiho, and I don't know. To my knowledge there are humans, demons and me." "Are you like, the only one of you kind?" "I'm the only one I've seen. In a very long time." There's a sadness in your voice that tugs at the girls' heart strings. "You know, your injuries haven't quite healed yet, how about you stay with us until you're completely healed?" "It'll be fun!" You hesitate, "I don't know about this, I don't even know you." "We'll feed you." "Well, why didn't you start with that?" There's a pause before you all burst out laughing. "That's all it took?" "I'm a simple creature." They all laugh again, you could get used to this.
You stay with them for two weeks while your wounds are healing, and in that time you've grown quite attached to the girls. You learned their names, instead of calling them 'human' everytime you saw them. The one with the braid that looks like it causes migraines in Rumi, the tall one with the deep voice is Mira and the small one with too much energy is Zoey. They had a pet demon tiger named Derpy and a bird with a hat. Why does the bird wear a tiny hat?- Anyways, you very quickly grew comfortable in the penthouse, you alternatex sleeping in random spots around the penthouse. Sometimes you'll sleep on the couch, other times you'll make yourself comfortable in one of the girls' beds or you'll just sleep on the floor wherever you feel comfortable. As was promised, the girls fed you, and you ate alot. They once watched you eat an entire family sized pissa alone and still have room for dessert. Zoey insisted on getting you new clothes, so then when you leave you'll blend in better. First, you had to cast an illusion so that no one would see your ears and tails. They were still there of course, just invisible for now. The shopping trip lasted six hours, Zoey made you try on anything and everything she thought would look good on you. The shopping bags were heavy in your hands as you rode the elevator back up to the penthouse with Zoey. She opened the door and you came inside after her, closing the door shut with your foot. You placed the bags on the floor, "What are these clothes made of? Why are they so heavy?" You undo your illusion, making your ears and tails visible again. "They aren't that heavy individually, they're just heavy because we bought alot." "Do I really need all of this, Zoey?" "Yup! You don't wanna look out of date when you leave." You hesitate. "Yes...leave.." Just then, Mira and Rumi walk towards you from the kitchen. "Shopping went well I take it?" "Yup! You should have seen her in these, she look so good!" "I bet she did, but did you really have to buy everything that looked good on her?" Their conversation drowns out as you think about Zoey's compliment and Rumi's agreement, a light blush on your cheeks. She thought I looked good? "Y/N.. Y/N... Y/N!" You're yanked from your thoughts as Mira calls out to you."Yes?" "Are you okay? Your face is all red." Of course Mira noticed, she always notices. "Yes, simply a bit...overwhelmed. I've never done a 'shopping spree' before." "Oh, well I guess that makes sense." You didn't want to leave. You like these humans, they're nice and warm and they feed you good food. But you knew you couldn't stay.
That night, the girls were doing a movie night, which you had somehow become a part of. Snacks and drinks all over the coffee table, comfy pyjamas on and a super long and boring documentary about turtles on the TV, obviously chosen by Zoey. You where sat between them, Mira and Zoey on your left, Rumi on your right. The faint sound of Derpy purring in his sleep in the background. "What is the point of this film?" "It's informative." "This is boring." As boring as it was, you had to admit, this was the most comfortable you've felt around humans in years. "It's not that boring," Rumi and Mira share a look. "Sure, Zoey. Whatever you say." Mira chuckles, and Rumi laughs softly. You listen to their playful banter, not saying anything just listening. They're so warm, so kind.. "I don't want to leave.." You didn't realise you said that last part out loud until it was too late. The silence that hung in the air afterwards was deafening. "Thank god.." You're confused as you hear Mira say that. "What? What is it?" "We didn't want you to leave." "It may have only been two weeks, but we really like having you around, Y/N." You stay silent for a moment. "So...can I stay..?" "Well obviously, dummy." The girls laugh and you find yourself laughing with them. "And we'll continue to feed you too." You smile softly as you settle back into the couch, eyes back on the TV. "Can we change the show?" "No." They say all together and you laugh.
Two weeks later and you start to notice things. Things like the way Mira keeps her hand on the small of your back while showing you what she's cooking. The way Zoey is almost always touching you, hooking her arm in yours while out, holding your hand and hugging you almost every chance she gets. And the way Rumi would have her hand on your thigh and rest her head on your shoulder when watching movies. It was small, platonic, right? It didn't feel platonic. Now, to say you weren't harbouring feelings for the popstars would be a big fat lie. But surely they didn't have feelings for you too, right? Like, Zoey being touchy was normal, the way Mira looked at you like she'd loved you her whole life had to be platonic and the way Rumi gently took your hand in hers and kissed it was also platonic. They're just really friendly, right? You got your answer two nights later, when the girls told you to meet them on the roof. You went up to the roof, not sure what to expect, only to be met with Mira, Zoey and Rumi dressed in suits. Mira holding flowers, Zoey holding a teddy bear and Rumi holding one of those heart shaped boxes of chocolate. "Hey there, Y/N..." "We know you don't really have a lot of patience, so we'll make it quick." "We like you. We know it's only been a month but we feel like we've known you our whole lives." "We want to be with you, even if you aren't sure right now, just give us a chance." "We'll make it worth your while, and maybe this can become something magical." You open your mouth to speak but no words come out. The girls expect the worst: rejection. You take a deep breath before speaking, "I would really like that.." Their faces light up and they walk towards you. "You really mean it? You're interested?" "Yes, I've never been in a relationship before...but I'd like to try..with you three." They hug you, squeezing you tight. "You're not gonna regret this."
That was six months ago, and Rumi was right. You didn't regret it, not even a little. You were on the couch, laying on your stomach with your head on Rumi's thigh. Dressed in shorts and one of Mira's hoodies while Zoey rambled and ranted about how soft and fluffy your tails and ears are. Mira's in the kitchen making lunch, it smelled like honey barbecue and some kind of noodles. "I'm just saying, they're so soft. Like how do you even keep them that soft, babe? Do you use the normal shampoo that you use for your hair or what?" "I think they're just naturally soft, no matter what I clean them with, they remain soft." "Lunch is ready!" Mira called out from the kitchen. "Coming!" You all say as you get up and go over to the bar stools by the counter and sit down. Mira plates the food and sits down with you three. Honey barbecue chicken and noodles, a food you came to like quite alot. Especially when your favourite redhead made it for you. You dig in without waiting for it to cool down. "Ouch!" "How many times do we have to tell you to wait, baby?" "Is my cooking really that delicious?" You nod, tongue sticking out of your mouth. "Aw, poor thing." Zoey moves her hand and scratches behind your ear, your sweet spot. You lean into her touch, loving the affection. Zoey stops and cups your cheek. "Better, honey?" "Yes, much better...can I eat the food now or will it fight me again?" Mira chuckles. "It should be good now." The other girls start to eat too. You dig in, the food was just the right temperature but it was gone in seconds. You lick your lips, "Can I have seconds?" Your tails swish behind you, showing just how happy you are. They all laugh, "Of course, love. You can have as much as you want."
You may not be the most normal girlfriend, but your theirs. And they wouldn't trade you for anything in the world.
