no cause why are they so mf fine LIKE MARRY ME RN 🧍🏽‍♀️

(reminder bridgette uses they/them pronouns :) )

It was almost three o'clock in the morning and you still couldn't sleep, and after binge watching over 10 episodes of some murder mystery show you definitely couldn't sleep now. It's a very rare thing for someone to come kidnap me in the middle of the night- that wouldn't happen to me. You thought nervously while turning off the TV, then you remember what the mother of one of the missing kids said an episode earlier, "We live in a very safe community, never in a million years did we think this would happen to us." shit.

You reached to turn your lamp back on and get your phone to text Brig, maybe by some miracle they were still awake? Worth a shot. The two of you have been dating for about three months and they're slept over a few times but typically it's because they were already at your house, never did you call them to just come over just to sleep over. Even if you would, it would not be at three o'clock in the morning.

Y/N: u up?

B💟: now i am

B💟: and that is?

B💟: hmmm idk can i?

Y/N: pleaseee love :,)

B💟: fine
B💟: i'll be there soon

Y/N: asap if you can

B💟: is everything okay?

Y/N: mhm

B💟: that's not very convincing
B💟: i'll be there leave the door open so you don't have to get up again

Yeah you definitely did NOT want to leave the door unlocked- that was the last thing you wanted to do. In fact, you didn't even want to get out of your room in fear that someone was going to be waiting there to attack you.

Y/N: how about just text me when you get here?

B💟: sure if you want <3

You liked their message and turned on the TV back on but to The Good Place for something more light hearted. It had been ten minutes in and you heard a noise from outside your apartment, causing you to jump out of your skin. Scared to check you stayed in bed. Oh my gosh y/n, it's probably nothing and this is what happens when you watch too many true crime episodes at night. You thought to yourself, you got up to look outside and saw that the wind had blown over your trash can. Sighing, you went back to bed.

There was a loud knock at the door about five minutes later, and that made you scream. You covered your mouth quickly, probably an overreaction for the knock to probably just be Brig. Or is it? Or maybe it's some crazy person who's going to kidnap me. You ignored that thought and got up quickly and shuffled to your door and looked through the peephole, opening it after you saw Bridgette.

"OH MY GOD! I told you not to knock!!" You yelled at them while pulling them inside and throwing your arms around them.

"Jeez, I did but you didn't respond and it's getting cold out here." They breathed into your neck, finally pulling away after a minute. "Are you okay? You're super pale and look kinda freaked out."

"Ummm yeah, I just wanted some company tonight?" It came out more like a question instead of just telling them why you invited them over so late. They raised an eyebrow and looked around the apartment before grabbing your hand and leading you to your own bedroom.

"Hmmm uh huh, some "company"." They laughed laying down, leaving you at the foot of the bed.

"I do!" That wasn't a total lie, you did want company, but not just because, but because you were scared. And they definitely did not have to know that. You finally got into the bed and turned the lamp off before facing them and closing your eyes.

"Y/n, you woke me up in the middle of the night just for you to sleep? You know once I'm awake I'm awake." You shrugged your shoulders and mumbled no. But you did, you knew they would stay awake and act almost as a protector while you slept. "Y/nnnn, what's wrong? And why did you tell me to come over?" You didn't answer. "I know you don't fall asleep that easily, what's wrong?"

"Oh my gosh, can't your girlfriend just invite you over without reason jeez, you didn't have to come if you didn't want to." You snap, turning around and giving them your back.

"Okayyy," they drag out, "I just know the difference between wanting company in the middle of the night and when something is wrong." They turned the TV back on and sighed. "Can I at least watch something since you're just going to ignore me and sleep?" You shrugged, this is definitely not how you pictured the night going.

Then you heard it, they had turned on the true crime show you had just been watching- the whole reason you called them in the first place. You tried to ignore it the first half of the show but then it got too much.

"Can you change it?" You asked bitterly.

"Why? I thought you were asleep."

"We'll I'm trying but your show is keeping me up."

"Well what else do you want me to do?"

You stayed quiet. "Can you just watch something else that's not going to keep me up or make me paranoid at this time of night?"

"Well, according to Netflix, between yesterday afternoon and right now you've watched like ten episodes, what's so different now?" They ask pausing the show. You don't respond. The wind outside is still pretty strong and there's a loud thud outside which makes you flinch before realizing it's the same noise your trash can made. There probably goes Ms. Jensen's trash can. "Whatever, just watch what you want." You finally say, your voice shaky, still a little surprised by the noise.

You hear them click the remote a few times and hear the theme intro to New Girl before feeling a pair of warm arms wrap around your torso. You felt your body tense up a little until you felt they're hands rub on your shoulders, causing them to relax. Pulling you close, they finally say, "If you were so scared of the show and that's why you invited me over, you should've just said so." They whispered into your ear before placing a small kiss on your neck.

"I'm not scared." You replied defensively.

"Mhm sure."

"I'm not." You yawned before trying to continue arguing.

"Shhh it's late, and you should get some rest." They said pushing some of your hair out of the way. You didn't even have enough energy to respond, you just nodded and mumbled 'goodnight' before falling asleep.
