my favorite alcohol problem
scaramouche x gn!reader fluff
summary: scaramouche started drinking to stop thinking about you, and suddenly ended up in your bed. someone help him
a/n: this is so unrealistic,, i think. either way ive been trying to fight the urge to write this but did end up giving in. also, I am just dropping this here to go right back to being on hiatus cuz this has been living in my drafts..
warnings: mentioning of alcohol consumption
wc: 1.5k
it was late. by far past 1 am. you were out with your friends to celebrate a birthday, and for whatever reason they were now going to go drinking at the bar next door. you excused yourself and told them that you couldn't stay any longer, but you’d still accompany them into the bar and then leave. 
as soon as you stepped foot into the bar, you saw a familiar someone laying with their head on the counter. your friends chose a place to sit, and while you said goodbye to them, you were already walking over to the familiar someone. 
it was scaramouche, who you knew from your college classes. from all the times the both of you had worked together, you knew that he wasn't the nicest person to be around. 
“what are you doing here at this time”, you asked scaramouche, and you couldn't tell if he was asleep or just too drunk to respond. 
you put a hand on his shoulder and tried shaking him, to which he somewhat tried to sit up. 
“why the hell are you drinking?”, you tried asking again. 
yet scaramouche in his drunken state leaned against you, and mumbled something which you at first couldn't make out. 
“this… this is all your fault!”, he slurred. 
“mine?! i wasn't even here”, you argued, but at the lack of a response, you decided that it was time to act. you couldn't just leave him here. like this he probably didn't even remember his way home or his address. 
“come on, let's get you out of here”, you slipped an arm under his arm and tried supporting him since he didn't seem like walking was something he could do on his own. 
suddenly the bartender stopped you. 
“excuse me, but he didn't pay yet”, the woman behind the counter looked like she felt somewhat sorry for you. 
you groaned and reluctantly pulled out your card. 
“here but it on this card”, the woman nodded and went to close his tab and pay. 
“you owe me big time scara”, you said to the guy you were almost carrying by the way he was slumping against you. 
“thank you, have a good night!”, the woman handed you your card back and you nodded with a very forced smile. 
as soon as you stepped foot outside the bar, you realized that you had no idea where scara even lived. you knew none of his friends who you could call, and have never been at his place. whenever you needed to work on a project together, you just met in the college library with him.  
screw it you thought. 
you sat scaramouche, who still hasn't said a word ever since he blamed you for his drinking, in the passenger seat of your car, and decided to just drive to your apartment. if he was going to complain to you about waking up at your place, you were sure as hell never going to help him with anything ever again. 
at your apartment, you started contemplating who slept where. you sure as hell didn't want to sleep on the couch, and since you already helped scaramouche out of the stupid situation he was in, why would you let him sleep on your bed? 
but the people-pleaser side of yours, in the end won and you did let him sleep on your bed. 
“here drink this”, you said while almost forcing a glass of water into the drunken man's hand. 
scaramouche drank the glass faster than you ever could, and held it out for you to put it on the bedside table like you were taking care of a child. 
you were about to walk out of the room when you heard a low whine. 
“what?”, you turned around. 
and there he sat, arms crossed across his chest and an angry pout on his face. with his head turned away from you, he mumbled something which you once again couldn't make out. 
“repeat that?”
“don’t… go”, scaramouches voice was barely above a whisper, and you wondered how much alcohol did he actually have? 
despite almost having to laugh at scaramouches weird request, you decided not to laugh at him because who knew how much he was going to remember from this night? 
“Scaramouche, I'm tired I just want to go to sleep”, and when you turned around to leave, you almost jumped at the feeling of a hand grabbing your wrist and pulling you back. 
“sleep here…”, scaramouche repeated and stared down at the floor. despite him not looking at you, you could tell that his face was flushed. yet wether that was because of the alcohol, or because he was asking you to sleep in the same bed as him.
you were about to argue with him, when scaramouche simply pulled you into bed with a yelp from you. 
the moment you were lying next to him, he wrapped his arms around your waist and fell asleep. not even pulling the blanket up or whatever. trying to get up was no use since he was going to wrap himself tighter around you whenever you tried.
he was so going to flip out when he woke up…
scaramouche happened to be the first one to wake up, and the first thing he noticed was the pounding headache. he barely remembered anything from the previous night. that was when he noticed you snuggled up against him. 
the first thing scaramouche decided to do was scream. well, almost. he slapped a hand over his mouth. next followed question after question running through his mind.
next he wanted to wake you, but wait- wouldn't that just be even more embarrassing? besides you looked so peaceful there next to him… wait what. 
then he remembered. 
the only reason he went drinking last night was to finally get you off his mind. for the past few weeks he could do nothing but think off you, even if he didn't want to. everything he saw reminded him of you. so he thought drinking could solve his problem. 
scaramouche even remembered parts of your conversation, the way you asked him why he was drinking, and he blamed it on you. drinking was just a last resort, since scaramouche had tried everything to finally forget you and nothing had worked. every thought and every action led back to you, and scaramouche was sick of it. it made his heart beat so hard, it was practically begging to jump out of his chest.
scaramouche sat up, his heart pounding faster than the headache in his head. what was he supposed to do now? 
he could leave and never speak to you off this again - assuming that you wont mention it to him - and live his life like nothing ever happened, but… is that what he wanted to do? this might be one of his only chances to be this close to you. 
that was when you moved and turned around to lean against scaramouches arm which was supporting his sitting form. it was pathetic to admit, but such a simple act led to scaramouches face heat up.
he was sure whatever he did next was because he was still tired. or because of the alcohol from last night. he was never going to admit the real reason for this not even to himself. 
yet he still lifted up his hand and reluctantly and slowly stroke your hair. first those strokes were barely even headpats, but it slowly turned into full playing with your hair and caressing your face. 
to scaramouches dismay, you were never a very heavy sleeper, so his actions woke you up rather quickly. 
scaramouche did not even notice how your eyes slowly opened and turned to look at him. he was way to busy admiring how beautifully your hair twirled around his finger. 
yet when he looked back at your face, he saw you with your eyes now open and your softly smiling face. it took him a second to process what had just happened, but he just blinked and suddenly scrambled away from you. 
his face was now redder than anything you have seen before and his mouth was wide open in shock. 
you on the other hand tried sitting up while laughing so hard that it was surely going to give you a stomach ache if you kept laughing. 
“s-stop laughing! you- i-”, scaramouche had no way of communicating with how flustered he currently was. 
after just a little while, you had calmed down though, and where only giggling a little. by then scaramouche was ready to ask you tons and tons of questions. well he wished that was the case, but instead of forming full questions in his head, there were only a bunch of question marks scattered across all the events from the previous night. 
“I- what were you even thinking making me sleep here?!”, was the only thing he could blurt out. 
“me? this isnt my fault!”, you replied still wearing a wide grin on your face. 
“what are you-”, scaramouche was so ready to blame everything on you, until he remembered the way he pulled you into bed with him and then hugged you so tight you could barely leave. 
“oh”, was all scaramouche could say as he lowered his head, completely at a loss for words. 
part 2?

I HATE GANLINK AND GANZEL.
I swear, how can there be people who ship a demon who always seeks to FUCK WITH THE LIVES OF THE KINGDOM AND THE PROTAGONISTS and say that "" oh, but he's a victim "", "" oh, it's Hylia's fault""" , "" ain, but look carefully """.
Look, nothing!!! I swear, every time I see fanarts or fanfics or the number of people who support this with the shitty excuse of """ oh, Link/Zelda will show what's good about him"" (that's when it's not a romanticization of rape or abusive relationship). And you know what's the worst, it's the fact that Nintendo's shit makes him ""physically attractive"" since it seems like if you're physically attractive you can do whatever the fuck you want and people not only will forgive you, as he will glorify you.
My God, Ganondorf isn't even a gray villain, with layers, NO!!! He's just the typical shit villain who wants to dominate and kill just because he likes (and no, neither do I). come with Ganondorf from WW, because that was ridiculous, "" oh, I just wanted a better place, I just wanted the wind"" and then he tries to invade a Kingdom that isn't his and condemns the gerudo and Hyrule, he he's just a selfish spoiled brat who tried to play the victim).
And I'm not even going to talk about Ghirahim's ship with Link here because it's ridiculous and disgusting, ""haha, let's ship Link with the guys who screwed up his life for active and passive because GAY SEX, haha""". I hate sidlink and malink, but at least the stories and fanarts are cute, the relationships are healthy and, most importantly, MALON AND SÍDON NEVER TRIED TO FUCK LINK'S LIFE!!!!
I like fanarts that place Ganondorf, Zelda and Link as "unlikely friends" or with Zelda and Link destroying or mocking Ganondorf but that's it, if you want to do a story where he finds the Light, do it. BUT DON'T INVOLVE LINK AND ZELDA IN THIS, THEY HAVE NO RESPONSIBILITY OR DUTY IN """RESCUING GANONDORF"""!!!
That's it, I've had this installed in my heart since I joined this fandom and finally, I'm at peace.

cold breeze
summary: you forgot to bring a jacket, and now you were pretty cold. but maybe forgetting your jacket had a good side.
a/n: this is super short, but yeah enjoy!!
summer nights are always colder than you expect. you are never really prepared for the cold breeze that comes with them. 
unlike scaramouche next to you, who was wearing a jacket by now, you were shivering a little and goosebumps were long forming on your arms by now. scaramouche kept saying something like “told you so”, and the proud grin on his face only seemed to grow. 
“i told you you should bring a jacket”, he was really insistent on reminding you of your mistake. 
“i know scara, you've said that like 22 times now”, you looked at him with a deadpan expression while holding your arms to somewhat shield yourself from the cold air of the night. 
just after a few seconds of silence suddenly a fairly loud groan came from scaramouche. 
“...you're so stupid”, he insulted you again for no reason, before handing you his jacket without you even asking for it. 
“scara- i’ll be fine, besides then you'll be cold”, you tried declining. 
scaramouche on the other hand was very insistent tonight. 
“dumbass just take it”, and without another word, he laid his jacket around your shoulders. the warmth of his jacket was comforting, and although you knew scaramouche was going to use this against you for quite a while. 
“thanks scara”, you smiled. 
“tsk, i mean what was i supposed to do? let you freeze to death?”, scaramouche replied while turning away from you. 
luckily it was late and dark and you couldn't see the faint blush sneaking onto his face.

Lol rain again while thinking of link taking care of u while you’re sick… bc this raindrop over here is super sick [sob]
But it’s okay cuz it means I can sleep
sick | (BOTW) link x reader
word count | 1k+
note | this is so late but HI RAIN HOPE YOU'RE FEELING BETTER!! wrote you a little something 🫶 ALSO SORRY I TOOK FOREVER TO WRITE THIS 😭😭
Tumblr media
Your body ached and you were beginning to feel a headache coming on but you willed your legs to keep going. You knew how important this journey was to Link and you refused to be the one to hold him back. The weather was nice and despite being far away from Hebra Mountains you couldn’t help but feel a chill in the air, maybe fall was approaching? That would explain your runny nose. The thought alone made you want to sniffle but you resisted the urge to, already feeling Link’s eyes on your back.
Almost as if he knew you were trying to avoid his gaze he walked right up next to you and placed a hand on your shoulder, forcing you to slow your pace. He shot you a concerned look and you already knew what he was going to say. “I’m fine.” You winced hearing your own raspy voice knowing well enough you weren’t going to fool Link like this. “I’m just a little cold.”
He furrowed his eyes, gently placing the back of his hand against your head. It was comforting, normally his hands were always warm but right now they were oddly cool.
“You’re warm.” He mumbled.
You ignored the worried look he gave you, closing your eyes and continuing to rest your forehead against his hand. “That’s ‘cause I’m alive.” You joked, but you knew what he was implying.
He pulled his hand away and brought out his sheikah slate, zoning in on what you assumed was the map. “There’s a town nearby, we can stop and rest there for a couple of days.”
“Link, I’m—”
“Sick, you’re sick.”
You don’t deny it because you know it’s true, but it still sucks hearing it out loud. Link unclasps his hood, removing it from his shoulders and placing it over yours. “Are you tired? I can carry you if you are.”
The thought is tempting but you shake your head knowing he’s just as exhausted as you are. “I can walk.”
A hint of a smile graces his lips and he wraps his hand in yours. “Tell me if you get tired ok? I don’t mind stopping.”
Tumblr media
The headache you were beginning to feel earlier had finally formed into a pounding feeling in your skull the moment your head hit the pillow.
Link was right about the town being close by. At some point the road split into the forest which quickly revealed a small town. It was a small detour, you’d be back on the road in no time. You allowed Link to do all the talking awhile at the inn, not trusting your own voice.
You felt a dip in the mattress along with a cold hand on your forehead. “I think your fevers gotten worse.” He mumbled. You simply hummed in response, not able to focus on anything else beside your headache.
You feel him pull his hand away and hear the soft robotic sound of the sheikah slate as Link looks through the contents. You’re tempted to ask him what he’s looking for, but you’re now oddly aware of how soft the bed is and how heavy your eyelids feel.
It isn’t until Link gently shakes you awake that you realize you had fallen asleep. The first thing you notice is how your forehead feels cold and wet. You raise your hand and feel a damp towel. The next thing you notice is how your headache is almost gone. It’s still there, but it’s now only a dull ache.
“How’re you feeling?” Link sits on the edge of the bed and removes the towel before placing his hand on your forehead.
You lean into his hand and realize it’s not as cold as before. “I feel a bit better, my headache is almost gone.”
Link smiles and lets his hand linger for a few more seconds before pulling away and handing you a drink. “Drink this, it should keep your fever down and hopefully get rid of your headache.”
You sit up with Link’s help and hesitantly sniff the drink. “..Do I even wanna know what’s in this?”
He rolls his eyes dramatically. “I promise there’s no monster parts in there.”
You only hum in response and take a sip. Despite the drink being warm it leaves you feeling refreshed, almost like waking up in the middle of the night and chugging down water you didn’t know you needed. “Mmm, it tastes good. Thank you Link.”
Link watches as you continue to take sips of the drink before leaning his head on your shoulder. “I hate seeing you like this.” He mumbled and you could already imagine his kicked puppy expression.
“I hate feeling like this.” You laugh, feeling the drowsiness begin to return. You place the empty cup on the table beside your bed and yawn. “I think I’m gonna sleep some more.”
Link sits up and nods. “Good idea, you need rest.” He gets up and begins pulling the covers over your form. You take a quick look around the room and notice you’re occupying the only bed. “Where are you gonna sleep?”
He’s quick to drag a chair and place it right next to your bed. “Right here next to you.”
You’re silent for a minute, wondering when he’s going to say he’s just joking, only to realize he’s not. “..Yeah no, get in here.” You say and lift the covers, gesturing for him to lay down next to you.
“I don’t want to make you uncomfortable—”
“Seeing your posture in that chair makes me uncomfortable, now hurry up and get in here it’s cold.”
Link complies and lays in bed with you. You’re quick to snuggle up to him, savoring the warmth he radiates. “Aren’t you worried that I’ll get sick?” Link whispers, but despite his words he’s quick to pull you closer.
“With everything you eat I’m sure your immune system can withstand anything.” You mumble, already drifting off to sleep when you feel Link squeeze you in retaliation for your comment. After a moment of silence Link whispers your name and you hum in response.
“Please promise me you won’t push yourself like that again. We can take breaks, I don't mind. I want you to be healthy.” His voice is gentle, just like his words.
“..Okay, I promise.” You manage to respond before feeling his lips press against your temple as he wishes you a goodnight.

thank you for reading till the end! reblogs are greatly appreciated :D

i'll pay for your number
modern au yae miko, hu tao, yelan (seperate)
a/n: this is painfully cheesy becuz i cant flirt, also yelans part is so rushed
summary: the genshin girls see you at their local shop, and immediately have a crush on you. will they manage to get your number?
warnings: alcohol (yelan), a weird creep flirting with you and not leaving you alone (yelan)
yae miko Miko was never one to fall for anyone who she sees. But as soon as she walked into her local starbucks, she noticed you behind the counter. It took her just a glimpse to notice that you were new. She was a regular at this shop, and on any other day she would've went to any of the other workers because they know Mikos order. But luckily she happened to get out of the house extra early.
You greeted her with the probably sweetest smile she had ever seen. It made her heart flutter, and almost made her mess up her order. What is happening here? she is usually never like this! What spell have you cast upon her to make her act that way?
while ordering she was fumbling over her words and she was fidgeting with her fingers. and now she was just supposed to walk out of the store like nothing had happened? as if she wasnt absolutely crushing on you, even though she has said only like two sentences to you? (even if she was in slight denial about crushing on you).
yae miko decided to shoot her shot, but the way her mind was all blank when she locked eyes with you, didnt help her to come up with something.
suddenly your sweet voice interrupted her thinking. "sorry did you want caramel on top?", really anyone else wouldve never forgotten mikos order, not in a thousand years, and if someone did, yae would wonder how thats even possible.
but in your case, it was okay. seriously even if she needed to repeat her whole order to you, she wouldve did it happier than ever.
"well i think you sweetened my day more than that caramel ever could hm?"
oh god why did she say that.
you just blinked at her a few times. "so is that a no...?", did you even realize she was flirting with you?!
miko sighed. "just put caramel on it", she shook her head. she wasnt going to achieve anything like this.
well luckily your co worker came to the rescue! "[name] did you not realize that the girl youre serving right now was so obviously flirting with you? seriously you need to give her your number or something. the sigh she let out was almost painful to hear. also shes one of our regulars"
luckily you were standing with your backs to miko, and whispering. and when you mouthed an "ohh" you immediately knew what to do. even if you were kind of oblivious to flirting, its not like you were entirely stupid.
"heres your order, and i hear youre one of our regulars? I look forward to regularly seeing you", you leaned over the counter, sweetly smiling at her.
god what was that feeling? her stomach and head felt all fuzzy, and her heart was about to burst out of her chest. she felt her cheeks redden. what was she supposed to say? you knocked her whole vocabulary out of her brain with just one sentence. were you even flirting with her? or was she being entirely delusional?
well she had everyday from today on to figure that out, didnt she?
Hu tao
Working at a funeral parlour, of course some flowers were needed. She was a regular, running to the flower store next door. She’s even befriended the friendly old lady who owns the shop!
Yet when she was told to get some more flowers, she groaned. She had other work to do as well! Can‘t someone else do it? Well it wasn‘t too bad of a task, she could chat with the nice lady again, and then return to the task she was finishing before.
So when she stepped through the door with the little bell above it, she didn’t expect someone so… young?
The smell of the flowers hit her, and that’s also when she saw your face. Your soft smile at the sight of a customer walking through the door made her heart flutter.
“Hi how can I help you?”, your smile wandering from ear to ear. Hu Tao was screaming on the inside. How was your voice so sweet? And your smile so gentle and your face so gorgeous??
…was it always this warm in the store?
“O-oh! I’m from the funeral parlour next door, I was just looking to get some flowers for… funeral decoration”, Hu Tao internally cursed herself. Since when was she stuttering over her words like this??
“I think Grandma- well you know the owner of this store, told me about you! Hu… Hu Tao?”, YOU KNEW HER NAME??? This was a foreign feeling for Hu Tao, how come someone could make her feel so… you must’ve bewitched her!
"Yeah thats correct!", phew why was she getting so dizzy?
"okay then hu tao which flowers would you like to buy?", you leaned onto the counter, your hands holding your head.
"Just... two bouquets of spider lilies... please", dammit! was she not capable of forming a full sentence anymore?! why did her face feel so hot! focus hu tao focus!
instead of focusing hu taos thoughts drifted into a whole different direction. what would you, the cute flower girl look like handing her a few red roses? or maybe hu tao could give you some roses herself? she would love to see your face turn as re as the roses... or-
"here are the bouquets! anything else?", your voice snapped hu tao out of her thoughts and she jumped a little.
hu tao needed to get out of here, before her head was going to burst and her heart was going to fly out of her chest.
"thank you!", hu tao just said while grabbing the bouquets, slapping some money on the counter, and running right out the store.
you looked after her, smiling. "weird girl", you laughed and shook your head, while noticing the huge amount of money she left on your counter, which was far beyond of what she owed you. you took a mental note of asking her about it the next time she came here. after all, you were going to see her pretty frequently now, no?
hu tao on the other hand, was out of breath from running. why was she even running from you? hugging the flowers, she looked down onto them. from now on, she was going to make sure, that she was the one who picked up the flowers everytime...
yelan
another loss. over and over she kept loosing the horrible gamble she was in right now. anyone else wouldve chosen a different game, a different table - or even a different location by now!
but... yelan just couldnt bring herself to move away. why? - because you, the dealer of the table were just too cute! yelan couldnt believe her own thoughts, but here we are.
yelan was not even paying much attention to the game anymore. her attention was mostly on you, trying to figure out if there was a way she could get your number, without having to directly ask for it.
even you were wondering by now why she hasnt left the whole entire place yet. not like you wanted her to leave, you didnt want to lie to yourself, and in all honestly, she was kind off attractive. nonetheless, she seemed a little... out of it. has she had too much alcohol?
one way or another, your shift was about to be over. your other co worker was already walking up to you to take over the table.
you greeted him and with a simple and quick exchange, you left to go get your stuff, and then head home.
as always, you walked past the bar. to ur dismay, a weird old creep stopped you and started flirting with you.
"hey cutieee - where ya headed", you werent standing particularly close to him, but even from where you were stading, you could tell that he reeked of alcohol.
you decided it was best to ignore him and just keep walking. yet the man had other plans for you. he yanked you by your wrist, and you pulled you closer to him.
"sir please let me go", you tried your best to remain somewhat professional and not punch him in the face right then and there.
but it didnt seem like he was going to let go anytime soon. he kept babbling something about going back to his place, while you tried to push yourself away from him, since convincing him with words didnt work. you werent even sure if the words arrived in his brain.
you were about to ask literally anyone for help, when a woman stepped in.
she pushed the man off of you, and standing between the two of you, keeping you safe from him.
"didnt you hear her you creep? she doesnt want anything from you", this obviously seemed to anger the man, yet the woman seemed to not care about amything his drunken state had to say to her.
she simply rolled her eyes, took your hand and walked away with you.
"are you okay?", she asked.
"ah- yeah thank you so much for helping me", and saying the things i cant say, you wanted to add, but figured it was unprofessional.
the woman in front of you sighed.
"do these kind off things happen to you a lot?", she asked. "kind off yeah, but its what you expect when you work in a place where alcohol is being sold", you answered.
"well if anything happens, just call me", she said, handed you a slip of pape, before wandering off without another word.
only after she left you noticed your quick heartbeat in your chest, as if your heart was begging to be left out of the place where it belonged and follow your savior the woman.
maybe you were going to call her even if it wasnt 100% necessary.

well luckily your co worker came to the rescue! "[name] did you not realize that the girl youre serving right now was so obviously flirting with you? seriously you need to give her your number or something. the sigh she let out was almost painful to hear. also shes one of our regulars"
luckily you were standing with your backs to miko, and whispering. and when you mouthed an "ohh" you immediately knew what to do. even if you were kind of oblivious to flirting, its not like you were entirely stupid.
"heres your order, and i hear youre one of our regulars? I look forward to regularly seeing you", you leaned over the counter, sweetly smiling at her.
god what was that feeling? her stomach and head felt all fuzzy, and her heart was about to burst out of her chest. she felt her cheeks redden. what was she supposed to say? you knocked her whole vocabulary out of her brain with just one sentence. were you even flirting with her? or was she being entirely delusional?
well she had everyday from today on to figure that out, didnt she?
Hu tao
Working at a funeral parlour, of course some flowers were needed. She was a regular, running to the flower store next door. She’s even befriended the friendly old lady who owns the shop!
Yet when she was told to get some more flowers, she groaned. She had other work to do as well! Can‘t someone else do it? Well it wasn‘t too bad of a task, she could chat with the nice lady again, and then return to the task she was finishing before.
So when she stepped through the door with the little bell above it, she didn’t expect someone so… young?
The smell of the flowers hit her, and that’s also when she saw your face. Your soft smile at the sight of a customer walking through the door made her heart flutter.
“Hi how can I help you?”, your smile wandering from ear to ear. Hu Tao was screaming on the inside. How was your voice so sweet? And your smile so gentle and your face so gorgeous??
…was it always this warm in the store?
“O-oh! I’m from the funeral parlour next door, I was just looking to get some flowers for… funeral decoration”, Hu Tao internally cursed herself. Since when was she stuttering over her words like this??
“I think Grandma- well you know the owner of this store, told me about you! Hu… Hu Tao?”, YOU KNEW HER NAME??? This was a foreign feeling for Hu Tao, how come someone could make her feel so… you must’ve bewitched her!
"Yeah thats correct!", phew why was she getting so dizzy?
"okay then hu tao which flowers would you like to buy?", you leaned onto the counter, your hands holding your head.
"Just... two bouquets of spider lilies... please", dammit! was she not capable of forming a full sentence anymore?! why did her face feel so hot! focus hu tao focus!
instead of focusing hu taos thoughts drifted into a whole different direction. what would you, the cute flower girl look like handing her a few red roses? or maybe hu tao could give you some roses herself? she would love to see your face turn as re as the roses... or-
"here are the bouquets! anything else?", your voice snapped hu tao out of her thoughts and she jumped a little.
hu tao needed to get out of here, before her head was going to burst and her heart was going to fly out of her chest.
"thank you!", hu tao just said while grabbing the bouquets, slapping some money on the counter, and running right out the store.
you looked after her, smiling. "weird girl", you laughed and shook your head, while noticing the huge amount of money she left on your counter, which was far beyond of what she owed you. you took a mental note of asking her about it the next time she came here. after all, you were going to see her pretty frequently now, no?
hu tao on the other hand, was out of breath from running. why was she even running from you? hugging the flowers, she looked down onto them. from now on, she was going to make sure, that she was the one who picked up the flowers everytime...
yelan
another loss. over and over she kept loosing the horrible gamble she was in right now. anyone else wouldve chosen a different game, a different table - or even a different location by now!
but... yelan just couldnt bring herself to move away. why? - because you, the dealer of the table were just too cute! yelan couldnt believe her own thoughts, but here we are.
yelan was not even paying much attention to the game anymore. her attention was mostly on you, trying to figure out if there was a way she could get your number, without having to directly ask for it.
even you were wondering by now why she hasnt left the whole entire place yet. not like you wanted her to leave, you didnt want to lie to yourself, and in all honestly, she was kind off attractive. nonetheless, she seemed a little... out of it. has she had too much alcohol?
one way or another, your shift was about to be over. your other co worker was already walking up to you to take over the table.
you greeted him and with a simple and quick exchange, you left to go get your stuff, and then head home.
as always, you walked past the bar. to ur dismay, a weird old creep stopped you and started flirting with you.
"hey cutieee - where ya headed", you werent standing particularly close to him, but even from where you were stading, you could tell that he reeked of alcohol.
you decided it was best to ignore him and just keep walking. yet the man had other plans for you. he yanked you by your wrist, and you pulled you closer to him.
"sir please let me go", you tried your best to remain somewhat professional and not punch him in the face right then and there.
but it didnt seem like he was going to let go anytime soon. he kept babbling something about going back to his place, while you tried to push yourself away from him, since convincing him with words didnt work. you werent even sure if the words arrived in his brain.
you were about to ask literally anyone for help, when a woman stepped in.
she pushed the man off of you, and standing between the two of you, keeping you safe from him.
"didnt you hear her you creep? she doesnt want anything from you", this obviously seemed to anger the man, yet the woman seemed to not care about amything his drunken state had to say to her.
she simply rolled her eyes, took your hand and walked away with you.
"are you okay?", she asked.
"ah- yeah thank you so much for helping me", and saying the things i cant say, you wanted to add, but figured it was unprofessional.
the woman in front of you sighed.
"do these kind off things happen to you a lot?", she asked. "kind off yeah, but its what you expect when you work in a place where alcohol is being sold", you answered.
"well if anything happens, just call me", she said, handed you a slip of pape, before wandering off without another word.
only after she left you noticed your quick heartbeat in your chest, as if your heart was begging to be left out of the place where it belonged and follow your savior the woman.
maybe you were going to call her even if it wasnt 100% necessary.
