Shaggy watched the other man closely. "It wasn't stupid," he said. "It was the plan, but then the dog sitter cancelled." He reached out his other hand to run it through Scooby's fur, soothingly. An apology for calling him a dog. "I really like you too, Freddy, and of course we can hang out without Scoob. But I need to know we can also hang out with Scoob. You know he's my best friend."

[trapenthusiast]

It was a bit stupid, Fred thought to himself. A small smile formed on his lips when Shaggy said he liked him too. "Of course we can, Shaggy. And yes, I know."

"Uh, so are you two hungry? Went shopping earlier today and bought some stuff."

[celestialdetected-moved]

Arawn waited until Fred had cleared the ledge and then started climbing himself. The night air was crisp and smelled of damp, rotting leaves. A forest then, deep into an old forest.

Not great for escaping, but Arawn would take it. "Haven't saved it yet Fred," Arawn said, landing with a thud. "You have a car nearby?"

It was a fools hope, but hey, he had to ask.

[trapenthusiast]

"True, but I would have so been dead if you weren't there," Fred points out. He nodded his head. "Yes. But it's not a car, it's a van."

"I parked it behind some bushes by the front of the castle we were just in. Hopefully it won't take us too long to get there."

[ibelonginyourarms]

"Then what's the problem?" Shaggy asked, tilting his head to the side. He genuinely did not understand what the problem was. It wasn't like Fred didn't like Scooby Doo.

He licked his lips, reaching to rest a hand on the blonde's knees. "Different how? Talk to me, Freddie."

[trapenthusiast]

"Ok. Um, I just thought, which was stupid, that tonight it would just be the two of us hanging out. I had a whole evening planned out." Fred sighed again and ran his hands through his blond hair. "Listen, Shaggy, I really like you, but I need to know that the two of us can hang out sometimes without Scooby-Doo."

[ibelonginyourarms]

Shaggy could hear the disappointment on Fred's voice, and it made him sad. He didn't understand why Scooby's presence was a problem. They were always together! "Like, Freddy, did Scoob do something wrong?" He asked, more serious now.

They could still have fun the three of them. Scooby was well trained, they probably wouldn't even notice he was there - except for the occasional break to give him Scooby Snacks. Shaggy popped a couple more biscuits into his mouth. "Come on Freddie, talk to me."

[trapenthusiast]

"No, Scooby didn't do anything wrong," Fred replied. He sighed. He really didn't want to hurt anyone's feelings and was worried he might if he told Shaggy what was going on.

He cleared his throat and bit his lip. "I, uh, just thought things would be different tonight. Silly me."

[ibelonginyourarms]

Shaggy was sitting on the floor, both hands deep on Scoob's back, scratching at the skin under the brown fur. He looked up, a confused expression on his face. "But, like, Freddy, isn't it better like this? I get to spend time with my two favorite guys!"

He let go of Scooby only long enough to reach for the box of Scooby Snacks to his right, popping a couple into his mouth before extenting the box to Fred in a silent offer. "Besides, the dog sitter canceled," he said, turning to look at Scooby's face, knowing the dog didn't like being called a dog. He tossed a Scooby Snack to Scoob, turning back to Fred. "You know he doesn't like being alone. He poops on the carpet, and then he tries to clean it and makes even more of a mess."

[trapenthusiast]

Fred sighed. No, this wasn't better! He just wanted to have one night alone with Shaggy. Unfortunately for the blond, Shaggy and Scooby-Doo were a packaged deal.

He still found it odd that the other male liked eating Scooby Snacks. He'd tried the biscuit once and it tasted really dry. He shook his head when Shaggy extended the box of snacks in his direction. "Right," he said, frowning a bit. It seemed like the dog sitter was always canceling. Maybe it was time to hire a new one. "Yeah, I'm aware, Shag," he replied. He was trying his best not to sound disappointed. He'd had a whole evening planned out for the two of them.

[celestialdetected-moved]

Arawn cast the kid a glare that he hoped read; 'do you take me for an absolutely heartless moron?' and also 'fuck you for suggesting that.' -and, after doing that promptly set the door and the surrounding wall alight with a click of his fingers.

"Right, that should buy us a few minutes if we run like hell, very few things like fire. Hope you've caught your breath."

He took the kid by the wrist and started hauling him towards a window that looked big enough to climb through. "I'm Arawn by the way, I'd say it's a pleasure but it's really not, up you get."

[trapenthusiast]

From the glare the other male shot him, Fred knew the guy didn't like his suggestion. Oh well. He was relieved that the older male wasn't going to just leave him there.

Fred's eyes lit up when Arawn set fire to the door and surrounding wall. That was pretty cool. And helpful. He nodded his head. "Yeah, I'm good to go!"

"I'm Fred," he replied as Arawn led him to the window. "Thanks for saving my life," he said before climbing through the window, unsure of where it would lead.

[celestialdetected-moved]

@trapenthusiast says: "I just need to catch my breath."

"Well," Arawn huffs, pulling a heavy wooden door shut behind them. It's not much, but it'll hold for a moment. He considers setting the door ablaze to buy them a few extra moments. Maybe if things get dire.

"Don't take too long, that thing is right behind us."

[trapenthusiast]

"Thanks," Fred replies, clutching his chest. Of course he was used to running away from 'monsters,' though nine times out of ten, those 'monsters' turned out to be fake. Today was one of those times where he wished they were running away from a fake monster. "I-I know! If you need to go, you can leave me behind. I'm sure I can figure out a way to get out of here," he tells the older male. He didn't want to slow the guy down.

[trapenthusiast]

"Shaggy, I'm not mad...I just thought it'd be the two of us tonight," Fred tells the other as he looks over at Scooby-Doo. Of course he loved the Great Dane, but it seemed like the blond never got to have alone time with the other. Which was a little ridiculous. Shaggy and him were dating. Maybe Velma had been right when she warned him about the disadvantages of dating Shaggy. Afterall, Shaggy and her had tried dating in high school and things hadn't ended well.

Fred smiles when he hears the voicemail Cassie left for him. He quickly calls her back and sighs when she doesn't answer.

"Hi, Cassie! Guess we are playing phone tag. You're it," he says, laughing. "You're right. It has been awhile since we hung out. Sorry about that. Been busy with the gang. I'm free tomorrow, if you'd like to hang out and catch up? So, uh, call or text me when you get this. Bye!"

“It’s not a bad thing,” she had to think of what it actually was. “Just like… tragic.” She let the severity of the word sink in. “Aren’t guys supposed to fall in love with like Megan Fox or some girl from their fifth period in middle school or something?” She didn’t know what it was like for guys but for girls love was something that was built up and talked about. Love was something that would be talked about in sleepovers as if it was to be this magical and beautiful thing. As far as maddy knew, magical and beautiful things always came at a cost. “Just because someone likes you doesn’t mean you have to like them back. I’m just saying that love doesn’t always have to be reciprocated.”

“Great...the most popular girl in school think’s I’m tragic. Awesome,” Fred replied sarcastically. “I guess I’ve always just been too busy solving mysteries or tinkering with the Mystery Machine to notice stuff like that. Which now that I’ve admitted this, I suddenly realize how pathetic I sound...” He’d solved hundreds of mysteries, but when it came to love, he was clueless.

“Ah, wassail,” Fred repeated the word. Every time the gang and him hung out with Thorn and the Hex Girls he learned a lot. They were to cool and badass and knew so much. “I’ve never been one to turn down spiced cider before. I should try some before Scooby and Shaggy discover it,” he said with a chuckle.

[notcruel]

“So, wait” a brief paused as Maddy tried processing the new information. “You’ve never been in love? Ever?” 

[trapenthusiast]

Fred slowly nodded his head. “I-I guess not. You say that like it’s a bad thing though. If you haven’t noticed, I’m a bit dense when it comes to people liking me,” the blond admitted.

WHAT SOFT ROMANCE CLICHE ARE YOU?

/oh./

the italicized oh. often seen in romance novels and fanfics. when a character looks at someone, wondering why their chest tightens when they're near, why their heart beats quicken at the slightest touches, why they lose their breathe at the sight of them and suddenly realization dawns on them— oh. they've been in love for a long time now. you are soft and quiet, probably the most overlooked. though when you love, you fall deeply. i'm sure you have a lot of anxieties when it comes to love, and you're more inclined to fall in love with a longtime friend than a stranger. though, your love is pure. and maybe if you have someone in mind, this is your sign to tell them.
