I thought it would be fun to make another chapter on the halloween party thing but this time in Yang's perspective to show how nervous she was too and how cute bumbleby is ahh oh yeah btw im fixing some costume errors from the last thing so dont kill me but im too lazy to fix it in the last chapter
Fuck. Fuck. Fuck me. Stop no stop shit fuck no-
That's basically what I thought when I fuckin- slammed my locker door into my crush's face. She landed on her ass, an annoyed expression fixed on her face. Good going Xiao Long.
Before I could apologize, she got up, walking away from me. I grabbed her wrist out of instinct, my face going red at the contact. She looked back at me and froze, her face becoming really red for no apparent reason. "Are you okay?" I managed to get out after staring awkwardly at her for a few moments.
"I didn't mean to do that I am so sorry I-" her pretty amber eyes were glazed over, seemingly daydreaming. I resisted the urge to hug her and instead waited for her to get back.
"Sorry I did that.." I said sheepishly, scratching the back of my head. She continued staring at me, making me feel severely self conscious from her stare. Do I look bad today? Does she think of me as some bully?! She probably hates me now-
"I-it's fine.." I realized that I was still holding onto her wrist. I let go quickly, rubbing my hand nervously. I gave her a grin to cover up my anxiety, hoping that she couldn't see how red I was.
Blake Belladonna.. I've had a crush on her for a long long time. I saved her from the bullies once before, I was too embarrassed to even talk to her because she was so pretty. More like she still is really pretty and gives me anxiety everytime I see her. Trying to think of an excuse to talk to her more, I lamely blurted out "Can I walk you to the nurse?" She looked at me with a shocked expression.
"I would feel guilty if I didn't." I tried covering up for myself. Blake was the hot cute nerd type. I really liked her. A lot. She nodded back and I for some reason walked ahead, not even waiting for her.
Great move Yang I bet she'll love you now
"Come on", I called out, trying to act cool and not look back. She came after me, coming to my side. "Blake right?" I faked not knowing for sure like I didn't stare at her whenever I got the chance to. She was just so.. Pretty.
She nodded looking away from me. "I'm Yang-" She cut me off to my surprise, with her own "I know." I playfully looked at her weirdly, trying not to cuddle her so badly.
She fake coughed and looked away. "B-because everyone knows you. You're like the popular girl", she inquired.
"I am?" I asked with an amused expression. She nodded, not looking me in the eyes for some reason. "Y-Yeah well you've got like a ton of boys lined up to ask you to the dance right?"
I didn't really want to respond to that because I knew it was true. "Are you going?" I asked her curiously, brushing a strand of hair behind my ear. Before I could respond, she cut me off with a "We're here."
I looked up and into her intoxicating honey glazed eyes, noticing the way she looked down at the floor cutely. I rubbed my arm, unable to look away from her. "Well uh, I'll see you around Blake." Before she could see my flustered face I took off in the hallways, stopping to look back at her.
"And I don't have a date either Blake." I continued down the hall, not daring to look back.
I couldn't stop thinking about those beautiful eyes, different specks of green lining her pupil. I would've loved to go to the dance with her, but of course; I'm too scared to even talk to her.
The first time I saw her was when I saved her from some bullies, she was just a cute girl at the time. Then I started seeing her become more and more beautiful, and she barely even tried. I really did admire her beauty, she was just so.. Intoxicating to me. It wasn't even fair how much I was infuriated by this girl, by the fact that she would probably never be mine.
…
"I don't even want to go", I answered in a monotone voice. Ruby slapped my arm lightly, a tight frown fixed on her face.
She whined, pacing all around my room. I sighed, stuffing my face in my pillow. "You have to go sis!" I made a puppet motion with my hand, trying to mock her bothering me. "I don't want to go Ruby."
She made her signature puppy face, her bright silver eyes widening at me. "It's my birthday.." She stared at me expectantly, her hands closed together.
I sighed, getting out of bed. She cheered, jumping up and down. "You won't regret it Yang!" She raced out of my room, leaving me to change into my stupid costume.
I decided to be Princess Bubblegum this year, in honour of bubbline coming true. I just wanted to find my Marceline, something that would probably never happen. I wanted to dress up as the varmints episode, one of the most iconic episodes in bubbline history. With the matching baseball cap and cowgirl boots.
I looked myself up and down in the mirror, seeing if I was decent enough to be seen by Blake. Wait. what the fuck did I just say. I sighed, rubbing my temples. I think I'm obsessed with this girl.
I straightened out my jeans, desperately trying to make myself look better just in case Blake was going to be there. "Come on sis! We're gonna be late!"
"Coming!"
I entered the gymnasium- now turned into a full out spoopy dance floor, crowds of people in a variety of costumes dancing together.
People came over, mostly just desperate boys asking me for a dance. I declined them politely, not feeling up to dance with anyone right now. The loud EDM music and dark atmosphere was giving me a headache. Ruby pointed at a ginger girl, leaving my side to go to the cute ginger.
I stayed in the corner mostly, staying around my friends and laughing whenever everyone else laughed.
I was going to go home when I saw her.
My marceline.
Literally and figuratively, there was Blake, dressed as the vampire queen. She stared at me for a moment, inspecting my costume for a moment. Everything cleared up, my headache dispersing almost immediately.
She walked over, a shy smile on her face. "Adventure time huh?" I pathetically said in effort to start a conversation.
"You make an attractive Marceline", I blurted out without thinking. I tried to laugh it off cooly, praying that she couldn't see how embarrassed I was.
"You make a hot princess", she offered, leaving me to internally have a heart attack. Did she just fucking say I'm hot how did I become more fucking gay jesus christ-
I grabbed her hand without thinking, dragging her to the middle of the dance floor. "Come on Blake, let's dance."
I resisted the urge to caress her palm lightly, wanting to just hold her hand forever. Sadly I knew she would think I was weird if I didn't let go so I let go of her hand, missing the way her palm fit in mine almost immediately. I brought my hands up, swinging my hips to the beat. She stared at me before joining me, her melodic laugh filling my ears.
The DJ apparently wanted to torture me, because very sexual songs were put on, causing people to push me up against Blake awkwardly. If only she knew how much it affected me, she probably didn't even care.
"Slow dance for the adventure time couple!" The DJ called out, watching all the crowds disperse around us.
I grabbed her hand hesitantly, putting my other one on her waist. I tried to smile back as she reciprocated, making my heart beat faster than ever. "Slow dance with you", she sang along, swaying along with me in sync. The crowds and judging looks faded away, and soon it was just the two of us dancing in our own world.
"Why don't you take the chance?" She breathed out, her face really close to mine. She squeezed my hand lightly, her gaze focused on me.
We continued down, looking into her eyes tenderly as she continued singing. "I've got the moves.." She twirled me around, despite our height differences. She brought me back closer, her eyes looking almost as if she was as into it as I am.
"I'd like to prove.." We continued in sync, all other murmurs blocked out.
"I want to slow dance with you." She whispered, our noses almost touching. Cheers broke out, snapping us out of our haze. I let go of her sheepishly, playing with my fingers nervously.
The DJ continued the typical EDM music, where me and Blake messed around in the dark, where no one could see us being idiots. She was a really fun person to be around, especially once you get past that shy nerd demeanor. We eventually all got tired of dancing, collapsing onto benches and each other.
The stage curtains opened, revealing our vice and principle. "We will now be announcing the winners of the costume contest", they spoke into the mic, a break screech making all the students flinch.
Students names got called out, going on stage and collecting a plastic medal.
"And last but not least, couple costume goes to.." He looked at the fake high end envelope in his grasp. "Yang Xiao Long and Blake Belladonna!"
I smiled, feeling a blush come to my cheeks. I heard some horse neighs and student cheers, all of them urging us to get on the stage.
We both went on, getting a fake plastic trophy. "Kiss, kiss, kiss", The crowd chanted at us, making me nervous. I looked at her only to see an uncomfortable expression etched on her face. Trying to hide my disappointment, I smiled and whispered "Don't worry Blake, I'm not gonna force you to do anything."
I grabbed her hips and leaned her back, her arms wrapping around me on instinct. The crowd erupted in cheers at our fake kiss, both of our cheeks burning red.
When the dance ended I stumbled out of the gym with Blake, both of us making our way to a bench outside a local park. We both sat down, falling into a comfortable silence. I gulped and leaned my head down on her shoulder, looking up to see what her reaction was.
"Blake?" She hummed in acknowledgement, not looking at me. Ah yolo.
"Do you like me?" I asked casually, keeping my head on her shoulder. She made a choked sound before answering. "Yeah, I do." I raised my eyebrows, laughing bitterly.
I took my head off her shoulder, looking the other direction. "You don't even know what I'm talking about", I muttered under my breath. She sighed, putting her hand on top of mines. "Yang.. I like you like that."
I turned to her, my eyes welling up with tears. "Please don't joke about that. You don't know how much it affects me." I exclaimed in a serious tone.
"I've liked you since year 6.. Ever since you saved me from those bullies.." I looked at her, shocked. She remembered. She liked me back? I couldn't process it.
"And you probably don't feel the same way and that's fine-" I cut her off my pressing my lips to her, tangling my fingers in her raven hair. She let out a small hum, kissing back just as passionately.
We eventually broke apart, both of us gasping for breath. "I like you too Blake", I whispered into her ear.
She grabbed my chin, our lips meeting again. And that's how I found my Marceline.
