Pretty
I got a thingy (sorry lol idk what it's called) asking for a period fic, so here you go! :)
You were laid out on the couch in the living area of the hype house. Comfortable wasn’t at all what you would use to describe your situation. You were a groaning mess, hugging your stomach, praying the devastatingly painful feelings would leave. It hurt so bad you couldn’t even walk to take pain killers. The front door opens, but you couldn’t find the strength to lift up your head.
“Oh hey! I didn’t know you were home, I thought you left with everyone else?” Hype house member, Vinnie Hacker acknowledges your presence. You don’t say anything, you shake your head no and end up whimpering. That noise catches his attention, “Are you okay?” He asks.
If looks could kill. Pretty boy would be 6 feet under as we speak.
“Right... I'll uh, here I’ll be right back.” He slowly makes a break away from the living area to who-knows-where. You and Vinnie were acquaintances, the both of you being famed teenage tik tok stars right out of high school brought the two of you closer, having that in common with someone who wasn’t a borderline narcissist was relieving. Ten minutes pass by, and you think you scared Vinnie away...not that you wanted him to come back, right?
Hearing thuds coming down the stairs, you’re knocked out of your pondering thoughts, Vinnie walks back into the living room with a small bottle in his hands.
“Sorry I went to text Mia to see if I could help you out a little,” He held out the small pill bottle, “she said Midol helps out with the cramps and nausea.” You go to grab the bottle, but a sharp pain hits you like a freight train. Groaning and curling yourself into a fetal position, Vinnie opens the bottle, and takes out a small pill. He watches you until the pain lessens just a hair for him to turn your head, place the pill and the right amount of water in your mouth to swallow.
“Thank you.” You look up at him and give your best smile. He smiles back and turns to place the water cup and bottle on the side table next to the couch. “Do you need anything else? I could totally go out and get you food or anything you need.” Vinnie offers. You find yourself wondering ‘where did this guy come from?’ His kindness fills your heart with feelings of gratitude. “Are you sure? I don’t want to bother, weren’t you supposed to go out with Chase and his crowd?” You don’t want to seem needy, but you don’t want him to leave.
“Nah, I mean I was going over there, but halfway through my drive I just realized I wasn’t feeling up for it, so I came back and now we’re here.” He looks at you, and you can’t describe it, but it’s the look of not wanting to leave.
“Now we’re here.” You say. An agreement to stay without actually using the words.
“And you’re the furthest thing from being a bother right now, I just want you to feel comfortable, so is there anything you want?” He offers once more, giving you his best smile.
Telling Vinnie what you wanted, he’s out the door and promises to be back in 30ish minutes. In that waiting period, you found the strength to sit up and find a blanket and the remote to the tv. Trying to browse watch to watch, you found your mind occupied by a certain shaggy haired boy. Why haven't you talked to him more? Why is he so kind? Not aware of the amount of time that has passed, when the front door opens again you jump.
“Sorry I didn’t mean to scare you.” He says while walking over with a bag of goodies.
“It’s okay,” You reassure him before digging through the bag to gather the things he’d got you. “Thank you again, it means a lot Vinnie.” He looks at you, like he’s surprised you even knew his name.
“Anytime,” He flashes that damn smile.
The two of you are there, sitting on the couch in an empty house, looking at each other like no one else existed, and at that point, no one else did.
“Do you want to watch a movie with me?” You ask, but you had a feeling you already knew the answer.
“Of course.” He says. Grabbing the remote you browse movies until you come across your favorite movie.
“I freaking love this movie dude!” Vinnies voice cuts through the air, catching you by surprise.
“No way, I freaking love this movie!” Your excitement blending into his without missing a beat.
“The obvious answer is to play this movie then.” He comments,
“Obviously.” You reply, pressing play on the movie, letting it engulf the screen. Around the 45 minute mark of the movie, you no longer found yourself paying attention to what was happening in front of you, but rather of who was sitting next to you. You started stealing glances, taking in his earring, his jawline, his lashes, his hair. All of him.
And then he looked at you.
A blush creeps across your cheeks, “You’re pretty.” The sentence slips out of your mouth before you could even catch it, the blush darkens. Vinnies eyes widen, and then he runs his tongue on the inside of his cheek and looks down, “Weird,” His eyes meet yours, “I was just gonna say the same thing about you.”
You didn't know how to react to that. He looks at you and then turns back around as he wraps his arm around the back of your shoudlers.
Smooth.
You spent the rest of the movie like that, leaning against his shoulder, his arm draped around yours.
You were so grateful he came home and made you feel comfortable, looking up at him,
“Thank you Vinnie, for today it means a lot “ the words softly come out of your mouth, prayer like. He smiles down at you, “Anytime, you look tired, get some sleep” he kisses the top of your head. With that you snuggle in closer, closing your eyes and allowing your mind to be filled with all things Vinnie.
You couldn't wait to wake up, and talk to pretty boy about the rest of the world, because you had a feeling he wanted to talk to you about everything and nothing as well. Drifting off into a peaceful sleep, you feel Vinnie brush your hair back, "Pretty girl" a soft whisper floats through the air.
You've never been this comfortable during your period before, and you owe it all to the boy laying next to you.
