Falling For The Raven || Corpse Husband X Reader

Chapter 8

Y/N's Perspective ~

I smile as I burrow into the warm surface of my sofa, cuddling into the similar warm touch of Corpse's hoodie – which I will now never remove.

I am going to live in this thing.

I smile, and decide to check social medias. I decide to liven things up a bit on my Instagram, and post a story saying to give me questions because I'm gonna do a quick Q&A.

I immediately get responses, and check through appropriate questions.

I notice that a lot of them are things like 'are you and Corpse dating?' and things about me and corpse.

I ignore these, and go onto other questions.

~ "Are you gonna do a face reveal at some point?"

~ Maybe. It's still very overwhelming for me, so it won't be for a while yet. But at some point I probably will! :)

~ "What's your real name?"

~ When the time is right I will let you all know! I'd feel a lot more comfortable with just my name out there and not my face, so maybe soon I'll tell you!

~ "Hey! I love your content! Just wondering if you know how Corpse is doing?"

~ Corpse is doing great! He's getting settled in from what I've heard. We talk every day pretty much!

It feels weird lying to my fans, but I can't exactly let them know that he is literally my neighbour, as they'd all totally freak.

~ "When's the next stream?"

~ Hmm, well Among Us streams are on hold because Corpse is still not settled, so our lobby is kinda messed up. Any other games you'd want me to stream?

~ "How are you coping? We all care about you!"

This one is from Sykkuno, and I can see one similar message from Rae below the one from Sykkuno. I smile, and add them both to my story before replying.

~ All good thanks guys! Feeling a lot more confident recently – I'll message on Discord to tell you why in a bit!  

~ "Fave song?"

~ Any of Corpse's songs tbh!

I move onto the final question, getting tired from answering so many questions.

~ "Do you praise Bingus? This is a deal breaker - if no, then this can't work."

I almost scream when I see the question, and silently curse Corpse for doing this. I'm gonna have to reply, I can't leave him on read, but now my fans are gonna think that we're a couple.

~ I praise Bingus with all my heart, and nothing could replace his place there!

I sigh as I post the final story, saying "That's all for today! Tysm for all the questions!"

∆•°°•∆

After a while of scrolling through social media, I get a text message from Corpse.

• Nothing can replace Bingus in your heart? Damn, I must need to do a lot to get that spot reserved then, right? ;)

I clasp my hand over my mouth, and raise my eyebrows.

° I mean, if you're willing to work hard? ;)

I go along with it, knowing we're just joking around.

• Hey I'm on my way over btw ;)

° What? Why??

But I get no reply, as I hear a knock on my front door, and sighing, I get to my feet and walk over there to unlock it.

"Hello, Corpse." I say, smiling awkwardly, fiddling with the hem of his hoodie (mine now!)

"Hey, Raven." He says, smiling.

I step back, and bow, jokingly making way for him as if he's royalty.

Well, he is in my opinion. He truly is perfect.
