A Witch And A Wolf (Billie Eilish Soulmate AU)

five

"so, what do you guys wanna watch?" 

billie smirked. "something scary,"

"no!" i blurted it out before i could stop myself. a dark blush crept over my cheeks as everyone turned to stare at me.

bradee and cody let out a couple snickers. i could see drew holding back a laugh.

embarrassment washed over me. i stared at my hands resting on my crossed legs, letting my hair cover my face.

i felt a light touch on my back and saw billie looking at me with wide eyes. 

she smiled. "it's okay, angel, you can hang on to me at the scary parts,"

wow, and i really expected this bitch to stand up for me. i heard zoe and cody bursting into laughter, the rest of them, even dakota, joining in after a moment.

billie glared at them. "shut the fuck up, cody. remember that time you pissed your pants because of that movie we watched two years ago? yeah, you know what it's like to be scared of a picture film. so you can shut up. and you too, dakota. you screamed for help like a girl because of a fucking teeny tiny wittle spider in the basement. so be quiet. ALL of you,"

a few strands of her blue hair, which was done in half up half down style, fell into her face while she was saying this. she blew them away quickly and continued to glare daggers at her friends.

hot, i couldn't help thinking.

even though it was the opposite of what i wanted to do, i pulled away from her. "i can stand up for myself," i told her.

she raised her eyebrows incredulously, then shrugged, patting the spot on the couch next to her.

by now everyone was watching the screen as bradee browsed netflix. i did a quick check to make sure no one was still looking, then darted into the place she'd indicated.

billie smiled and tried to put her arm over my shoulders, but i pushed her away and made a mental note to not lean into her at all whatsoever.

i heard a sigh come from her, but she didn't try again, instead just handing me a fuzzy gray blanket.

i hid my smile in the blanket as i cuddled into it. there were only three of us on the couch, including billie and i, so there was lots of space for me to stretch out my legs.

by now, they had picked out a movie. i didn't see what it was called but i guessed from the preshow mutterings that it was, as requested, a horror movie.

i bit my tongue, holding the blanket up to my cheekbones so that when there was a scary part i could cover my eyes without drawing attention from anyone.

billie tapped my shoulder. i turned to see her holding out one of the five bags of 'takis' zoe had bought.

i shook my head. i'd never even heard of takis until today, but i knew they were spicy. so no thanks.

she rolled her eyes in fake disappointment before leaning back against the couch again with the bag on her lap.

mentally preparing myself, i turned my eyes back to the tv, biting my lip harshly. i could see billie still looking at me through her peripheral vision.

can that bitch lay off?

 i pretended to ignore her, actually investing my attention into the movie. it wasn't so bad, really.

of course, i spoke too soon.

as soon as i thought that, there was a jump scare. i flinched, feeling the back of my neck hit billies' leg.

i heard a soft chuckle come from her, then the takis being set to the side. two hands slipped underneath my arms, pulling me up.

i could feel my blush as she settled me against her side, almost on her lap with both of her arms wrapped loosely around my waist, but i didn't fight her, not even when she rested her chin on top of my head.

being in her arms felt right. safe.

and it was really comfy. if you haven't already guessed, i'm a sucker for soft and comfy shit.

my blush slowly faded. i wasn't even focused slightly on the movie, all i could think about was billie.

her hand came to cup my waist, then she slowly ran her fingers up and down my side.

i could get used to this.

725 words, unchecked.

y'all really deserve better than this. i'm sorry.

i'm so tired rn. i think im gonna start having an update schedule, maybe every third day, so i can write more and finish this book instead of posting as soon as i'm done writing a chapter. but tbh, i struggle with that.

anyway, have a good day.

(periods suck and my sleep schedule is fucked ;)
