Gosh, sorry for the wait, guys! My computer cacked it for a couple of days, and while my replacement was super flash, she didn't have my files, so I couldn't update :c
But here I am now! This chapter isn't as long as the others, but I kinda wanted to write a little JohnRose cuteness, because I'm a greedy motherfucker.
p.s if anyone wants to draw fanart, that would be just fantabulous
enjoy x
John: Get woken up.
"Guess who's druuuuuunk!?"
The door was swung open, letting cold Toronto air carrying little flakes of snow into your not heated apartment and the light was switched on, alerting from your dreamless sleep, by your normally sober roommate.
"I guess Rose..." You groaned, slowly opening your eyes and getting used to the room being filled with bright light. It actually stung a little
"You guess right!" She said with a giggle, sitting down on the shitty futon.
"Do you know what time it is, young lady?" You muttered in your best impression of Dirk, wiping sleep from your eyes with a tired yawn. "Besides, I thought you didn't drink."
"I don't normally, but Kanaya took me to one of her parties, and the waiter kept offering me wine, so I took a glass and it was really, really good, so I just kept drinking and now here I am!" She smiled, as if her escapade was healthy.
"You didn't drive here, did you?" You asked, sitting up, suddenly not sleepy and more worried about a potential accident that you would have to clean up in the morning.
"Nooooooo, Kanaya dropped me off, silly!"
"Why didn't you go back to her place then, so you wouldn't have to disturb my beauty sleep?" You growled, no longer worried, getting back into your comfy and warm duvet cocoon.
"She has a project that she needs to turn in in a few weeks, so she wants to spend as much time on it as possible." She sighed mournfully.
"Your life is just so hard, Rose..."
"It's a difficult life..." She said with a small laugh, slumping down on you, and you responded to her assault with a small mutter curse, which she merely smiled at. "So, how's John tonight?"
"John's okay." You said, glancing back at her. "...It's just, I went to this party with Dirk and the others tonight-"
"Of course..." She said, cutting you off. Most of the people you were friends with tended to do that.
"And I saw this one guy there..."
"Guy...that's new."
"And I think I've been dreaming about him. I saw him at the library too."
"Library, right..."She murmured, before turning her head to gain eye contact with you. "Can I pretend you're talking about a girl?" You nodded.
"And then I'm at the party and...ya know, there he is." You turned onto your back, with a lazy sigh, glancing at the ceiling quickly, before going back to looking at her.
"There she is." She said, a smile on her lips. You rolled your eyes but she was listening, so you didn't say anything.
"I think I'm in love with him." You pressed your hand against your face with a small groan. "...But something's bothering me..."
"Oh yeah?" She asked, turning onto her stomach. "Spill it."
"Well, I've been saying he a lot." You said, sitting up. "So he's totally a guy. And I haven't dated a guy in forever. Ya know, like six years. Since high school, Rose!"
"And the issue is?" She raised an eyebrow at you.
"He's like totally an alpha male, Rose. I can't be a beta. I've never been a beta!" You threw your arms out to exaggerate how much of a big deal this was to you.
"And of course, there's Nepeta." She muttered, but you ignored her, because damn, everyone brought Nepeta up.
"I CAN'T BE A BETA, ROSE. Maybe I should start working out..." You said, looking down at yourself. You had puppy fat on your belly that should have pissed off long ago, and your arms were scrawny, considering that you've never lifted a weight in your life.
"And there's Nepeta?" She said again.
"Oh god, you should see him, Rose. He's so...so handsome; it's really hard to believe he actually exists." You smiled a dreamy swoon, and didn't even care about the fact that you're fangirling.
"John."
"Yeah Rose?" You said, being snapped out of your dreamy state.
"Normally I love talking about your sad, sad excuse of a love life, but Mama Rose is drunk and sleepy and she needs to work on a new chapter tomorrow."
You smiled as she switched the light off and take her fancy clothes off, throwing them to the floor (because secretly, she was as big a slob as you were) and you made a space for her on the futon. "Night, Mama Rose." You said with a quiet laugh.
"G'night John..." She curled up next to you in the duvet with a pleased sigh, probably because you were being quiet and you had made the duvet warm for her with your slumber before.
You turned around to look at her, because you were in a good mood and she was sleeping, so she wouldn't call you out for it.
Rose was a really pretty girl, you had always thought that. But you weren't attracted to Rose. Like, at all. You might have been, in another universe, but her friendship was more than enough for you in this universe. You smiled to yourself, and took out her Alice band, because if you didn't, it would hurt her tomorrow.
You needed to treat your mama right, after all.
I hope that didn't sound creepy. I just wanted it to be cute ;A:
