Angst Joey x Bertrum story and I'm not the best with angst but I'll try, also I wanted to try pov's because I haven't really done that before.
Bertrum's POV
I couldn't believe he introduced me to those high up people as Bertie! Mr. Drew had some damned nerve, not much of a brain.
I could quit, but it wouldn't do me any good. It'd be difficult to find a new job. So I stayed. But despite this man sometimes being such a downright bastard, I couldn't help but like some of the good qualities about him.
He was reasonable when needed, we liked the same type of music, and I couldn't help but notice he was more kind to me than to any of the other employees here at the studio.
I often wondered if he might like me, it would clear up some actions he's done towards me, like staring and blushing when I am near him.
Once in a while I'll like to say things to him to make him flustered, I find it funny I can make his face go red like nobody else can.
But I was currently pissed at him, and I have decided right here, right now that I shall never be kind to that man again, no matter what.
Speak of the devil, Joey Drew himself walked into my office. "Hey Bertrum, I uh...you seem to be angry lately, are you alright?" Joey asked.
I hmphed at him, ignoring him. "Did I do something wrong? Please tell me?" Joey pleaded. I avoided eye contact with him, gazing at some blueprints on the wall.
I found it quite difficult to ignore him, maybe I had fallen for this imbecile after all. My emotions were so...confusing.
"Why would you introduce me to those people as Bertie?! You know that isn't my name and I'd rather you didn't." I growled.
I could sense Joey felt bad. It was a rare thing for him. "I-I'm sorry, I didn't know you hated being called that." Joey apologized.
It was certainly difficult staying mad at Joey. I'm sure nobody else would have trouble staying mad, but I do.
By god I hated and loved this man so much. As I was lost in thought, Joey seemed to grow uncomfortable by my silence.
"I really am sorry, I hope you're not too mad, I..." Joey continued rambling on. I found it annoying when people kept on talking with no real reason to continue after giving their point.
So to stop him from being annoying, and just grabbed the sides of his face and kissed him. I wasn't thinking and realized my mistake at the look of Joey's burning face.
But you know what? I don't regret it. And I'd have been sad to know then that in the future, he'd have gone entirely insane.
I updated the rule page btw, just incase you wanna check it out
