Almost Killed Your Light.


| Fran |

It's been two hours since Bel-Senpai and Mukuro returned from the store. I wasn't enjoying myself since they were glaring at one another from across the table, chugging their drinks as I slowly sipped on mine. I had little to no buzz and we were already needing more. I blamed the many years living with the Varia since Xanxus and Squalo always brought alcohol back to the castle, even though Bel, Mammon and I were the youngest in the group, we still had to participate.

Bel slammed his cup down, "I win!" He yelled at Mukuro who slammed his cup down as well.

"Fuck you," Mukuro said under his breath, he watched Bel laugh with burning glazed eyes. They were playing a game, whoever chugs their cup the fastest before ten seconds were up - wins. They keep asking me to jump in and play along since I was apparently 'sulking'. I decided not too and waited for them to passed out like a good friend.

Through their loud squabbling, a light rapping on the front door cut through Bel-Senpai and Mukuro's glaring contest. I set my cup down, "I'll get it," I muttered as I walked to the front door and wondered if it were Ken, Chikusa and Chrome. However, it was a pretty blond that seemed positively familiar.

"Julie?" I asked, surprised.

Her red lips widened in a grin. "Fran. Bel's other half. Nice to see you again," She said as I let her in. I glanced back to the kitchen and realized Bel-Senpai invited her, which is a first since he never invites the same people over. Julie wore light blue shorts, a black tank-top with a thin sweater. She worked herself out of it and handed it to me.

"Bel's in the kitchen," I said, pointing to the bright room where the loud argument was coming from.

"Are you drinking too?" She wondered.

"Yeah, but we're almost out so I might have to go for a run to the store." The second I said that, she took her sweater from my hands.

"I'll come with you." I nodded and ran to the kitchen. The first bottle was gone and the second was half finished. "Julie and I are going to get more alcohol. Anyone have chip-ins?" I asked, hoping the Vodka got to their heads and they'll pass out soon. They both pulled out money and tossed it at me, I grabbed the flying money and hurried off to Julie who was chuckling at me.

"How much did you get?" She asked, opening the door.

"Sixty. Let's hope whatever we get will be enough."

She laughed as we hurried down the stairs and out the door. The cold wind hit me and I shuddered, wishing I brought my sweater. I tucked the bills Bel and Mukuro gave me into my jean pocket. We walked in silence and there seemed to be no one outside, the sun was barely gone from the sky and not so many cars passed us.

"Have you fucked him yet?" She asked suddenly. The question stunned me, her cheeks were flushed a light pink and her eyes glinted something mischievous.

"N-No. Why would I?" I asked her.

She pouted. "You never thought about it?"

My mouth went dry at the question. Have I ever thought of fucking my Senpai? There was never a moment where I thought romantically of him before. He was my superior and my roommate, nothing more. Then again, there were moments when I stared too long and the images I had a few days ago came to the front of my mind.

I shook my head, "No. I've never thought about my Senpai like that before." I rubbed my tongue on the roof of my mouth, feeling anxious of the question and the lying.

She laughed and even though Lily was my favorite out of all of Bel's hook ups. None ever asked if I ever wanted to screw him. I look down at my shadow, wondering when it would get darker out.

"What if he thought of fucking you?" She asked, the question brought shivers along my spine.

"No way. Bel hates me."

"If he hated you. You two wouldn't be living with each other. He wouldn't drink with you and tolerate you." She was right. If only she knew how we were when we lived in the Varia castle. Bel ignored me, he tossed his knives at me and one day everything changed. Mammon no longer hung out with Bel and for some odd reason, Bel lingered with me until we decided to move out. Weird transition.

"It's because we're best friends, we just get used to each other."

Julie finally stopped talking about Bel and goes on about music, books and her friends. When we arrived at the liquor store, a few weird looking men with an ugly stench kept trying to hit on her. She, however, acted like the most professional person I have ever met and walked by them as if they weren't there and smiled as if nothing phased her. It was amazing.

We left the store with three bottles, one Whiskey and he other two were Vodka. I held the bag and deduced it would fuck Bel up. Julie took out the Vodka bottle and uncapped it. She tipped the bottle and brought it to her lips. She chugged it and a willful smile came upon her face once she pulled the bottle away. Her eyes sparkled as she passed it to me.

"Drink up. You got nothing to lose," She says.

I take it from her hand and ignore the sweet intoxicating smell and take long swigs. It was hard to swallow as I pulled the bottle away, the liquid burned my mouth and throat, but for some reason I felt exhilerated. I passed the bottle back to her. By the time we make it back to the apartment, Julia and I have drank half of the bottle with quick succession.

I'm surprised the world hasn't tilted like one of the rides at the amusement park. Julie laughed, she held onto my shoulder, "We're getting fucked up tonight." I notice her eyes are glazed over by the sweet alcohol, her mind is probably swimming in euphoria, but by how close she is, something else is on her mind. Her hands wound themselves around my waist and pulls me flush against her body.

"I like you more than your.. Bel," She says, a drunken laugh falls from her lips.

"Really? I was getting the impression you enjoyed getting fucked by him since you undoubtedly think he wants me too." I had no idea what the fuck was coming out of my mouth, but I didn't care. I was more focused on her warmth and her hands tightening on my hips.

"Maybe I'm a little jealous by the pity looks he gives you." Before I could ask what she means, she leans in and plants a warm kiss against my lips. I move with her mouth, feeling the sensation of her tongue entering inside and mine intertwining with hers.

"Well, well, well, look what we have here." We both moved away from one another, startled by the voices breaking our drunken moment. The Varia members are here, Xanxus is standing in the back, frowning with a cigar in his mouth. Lussaria's mouth had fallen open, digging out a slip of paper and passing it to Squalo and Mammon, both smirking in triumph.

Julie seems confused by these strange people, while I'm waving my hands in front of me. "It isn't what it looks like!" I try saying, but none of them look convinced, I glance to Julie who has her brow arched, probably wondering who these people are. "Please don't tell Bel-Senpai, she's his girlfriend."

Levi grumbles, "Fuck. Did not think you of all people would cross Bel. If he hears about this, he'll punish you."

Julie nudges my arm with her elbow. "Who are these people?"

"We're the Varia," Mammon says, not bothering to look up from her tablet. Julie's entire body stiffens, "Fran and Bel are also Varia members."

Julie's voice hitches, she side steps away from me and I mentally want to tell Mammon to shut the fuck up. Instead I waver and pull Julie towards the front doors to the apartment, handing her the bag with the bottles of alcohol. "Inform Bel the Varia are here." She quickly nods and runs inside.

I look back and frown. "You just had to reveal everything, didn't you?" I asked Mammon, she shrugged her shoulders.

Lussaria face slackens into a frown as he lightly places both hand son my shoulders. "Tell me, did you really just seduce Bel's girlfriend?"

I lick my lips, trying to remember what Julie tastes like, but it fades. "No. Somehow, she seduced me."

"Exactly, you piece of trash. You did nothing, but let it happen," Squalo said, glaring at me.

"Let what happen?" I and the Varia members turn to the apartment doors where Bel stands nonchalantly.

"N-Nothing," I mutter.
