Hey there people~
So, this is our first instalment of a few stories we've written (I promise no spoilers in these) these are just to try and help you all get to know our characters. :3 Here is the first story: Neptune
It wasn’t that Neptune wasn’t attracted to girls, he just never thought about it, the thought made him kinda sick. “This is Lyra. She’s the student body president of the boarding school down the road. You know the one with the Earth Eagle?” What was his mom even talking about. “We found that you didn’t seem to be talking to many girls your age at Astro so we thought it would be nice to open you up to someone of high status such as Lyra.” Did this thing just wave at him? ‘Should I wave back?’ His face was simply confusion. “She can be your dinner date tonight.” Was his father’s simple words. He knew something would come from this, his parents had to ruin everything somehow. Inviting some prissy girl to be a date was one of the worse things they could do. He felt his father’s presence of ‘Oh so manly-ness’ and sighed slightly. They were all looking at him. Wait, was he supposed to say hello or something? Neptune crossed his arms and leaned back slightly. Instead of paying attention he looked at his dad, “Where is Proteus?” He asked. His dad’s face contorted to a look of pride, fucking Proteus, “Oh he’ll be here. Now son..go introduce yourself.” And so it began. He can remember the way her fucking eyes lit up when he introduced himself and the way his parents ‘nonchalantly’ left the room. What were these two even supposed to talk about. “Do you like movies?” Okay, first question Neptune. Good job. “..Not really. I find they take time away from important things.” God her smile was so fucking annoying. Why is she getting closer? Personal space. “Important things? Like what?” He didn’t even know why he asked this question. “You know, things like…” She just fucking put her hand on her hip. Oh my god. “Boys and school and stuff.” Good description. Just like his parents to find the most uninteresting person in the world. Time passed by slow as hell and with each word this girl uttered it was either about ‘Her ‘ohmygosh totally fab wedding’, or ‘how shes going to become the top star of life.’ or some shit like that. When his parents told him to come in for dinner he thought, maybe, just maybe Proteus would show up and he wouldn’t have to talk anymore. No, he didn’t get to talk anymore but he did get to listen to his parents question this girl about everything but her virginity. He wanted to scream something along the lines of, “HELLO NOT GETTING MARRIED TO THIS BITCH.’ But no he stayed quiet. He will never forget Proteus’s look when he finally showed up either. He was going to get shit for this later.
Dinner was the most embarrassing thing he’d ever experienced. He wasn’t even able to touch the food on his plate. He lost his appetite after they mentioned how Neptune was such a hard child. Bullshit. Maybe he should tell this girl what really happened and see how fast she could run. It wasn’t until children were mentioned that Neptune completely was just done. “I think I’m finished.” He said, hard as stone, as he stood up. No this didn’t break his damn parents spirit. “Oh, we’ll just give you and Lyra some time alone in your bedroom then.” These people were the bane of his existence. He walked to his room with this barbie beside him as he wondered if his parents just asked him to basically have sex with this girl. The bedroom was even more awkward than the living room and he found himself turning on a horror movie hoping it would scare her away. Little did he understand that made her cuddle up more with him. Dammit. When the movie was over Neptune was pissed, way to warm, and all he could smell was her fucking grape body wash. “You know I think I /really/ like you..” Ugh please stop talking. Go home. Eventually she did go home and at that point when he thought he was finally rid of it all his dear brother decided to give him some manly advice. It wasn’t until he brought up what condoms were the best that he kicked him out. Okay, just go to sleep Neptune. Tomorrow you’ll be back in your land of zero fucks. Is his phone ringing? Oh my fucking god his parents gave this bitch his number. Her voice never shut up. How long has he been on the phone? Is she talking about poodles. What the fuck. By the point of two hours listening to her voice Neptune was so fed up. He had enough, he needed to say something to get her off this phone, his brain wasn’t even working correctly. “Do you think you could loveeeeee mee?” Did he even register that? In that moment Neptune made a huge fucking mistake, “Yeah totally love you. I need to sleep now, night.” And he hung up. Little did he know what he just set this pristine queen up for. She still talks about him, “He loves me! He told me. I know I’m so lucky. A /rich/ planet~!” She would sit and tell her friends. And these days it’s more like, “Oh yeah. We are like totally /star/ crossed lovers. Really tragic right? I hope he survives!”
