Black Sheep Rodrick X Reader Fan Fiction

Chapter 14 - Cannonballs and Kisses

As you enter your own backyard, you spot a menagerie of costumes. You see people dancing and drinking and some people hovering by the pool, which was heated and giving off a cool steam effect where the air met the water.. No one has jumped in yet. You quickly spot Heather, who was absolutely gorgeous in her fairy costume, almost like a high-end ren faire costume. Madison was shaking her small deer tail at someone while laughing and slightly spilling her drink. Kai is still holding your hand as you make your way over to Heather and Madison. His hand is warm and soft and you are definitely starting to feel the warmth rush across your face from the tequila.

"[Y/N]!" Madison yells out. "Your house is soooo cool! We should've become friends months ago! You look super cute by the way!" Madison winks at you and Heather grabs her arm.

"Madi is very drunk already. She is pretty much a light weight. Anyways, this is so much better than the lame dance they had at school. We only went for a bit to make appearances and all. Where's your little boy-toy btw?" Heather says, looking at you over her red solo cup. Did she really abbreviate by the way out loud? She chews her lip while staring at Madison who really is very drunk already.

"Who?" you say, trying to hear her over the loud party music. Heather rolls her eyes at you.

"Rodrick fucking Heffley, who else? I just assumed you kept him around because he'll do things for you. However, he is not that smart so don't expect him to do your homework. If you need a homework boy-toy, let me know. I have a guy." She quickly flips her hair and pulls out her phone and snaps a picture of you and Kai, who is still holding your hand. You don't pull away this time. You want to blame it on the shots, but a part of you also likes holding his hand. But you also get an uneasy feeling from your picture being taken.

"Oh don't be like that [Y/N]. We are all friends here, we've all liked each other a time or two. If you're dating Kai or Rodrick, no one here is gonna care. Not to be a slutty fan girl, but a love triangle is cute." Heather winks at you and takes another sip from her drink. You see a slight dribble fall past her lips onto her chin, which somehow makes her not sloppy, but sexy.

"Rodrick isn't my... boy-toy. And I am not dating Kai. I simply just did three shots and needed someone to make sure I didn't fall over. Which he has done a good job on." You hold your head up higher to try to make it seem like you weren't tipsy, but the truth is you were. Very.

"Right, just like how Kai actually likes you and isn't using you to make someone jealous?" Heather scrunches her face at you and her eyes flicker to Kai, whose hands have become sweaty.

"What are you talking about, Heather? [Y/N] and I are just friends. You KNOW that." Kai quickly removes his hand from yours and walks closer to Heather. They stare at each other for a short while. You feel uncomfortable by that statement. Did Kai like you or was he using you? And for whom? You take some steps away from the group and walk backwards until you feel a hand wrap around your wrist and turn you around. It's Greg and Rowley and some Indian kid.

"[Y/N], this is such a cool party! Rodrick threw a party once and he only had soda. Some guy offered us alcohol!" Greg had a bottle in his hand, but you recognized it right away; it's root beer. Rowley held a root beer bottle too, which you immensely felt better about. Rowley was the type of kid you hoped always stayed sweet and innocent and you were not about to corrupt him. You totally forgot you invited these two. And they must have seen your root beer in the fridge. Which you now are patting yourself on the back for. These kids were NOT made for consuming alcohol at this age.

"Who's your friend? I remember inviting you two, but this is...?" You motion to the small indian kid who happens to be wearing a dog costume. He looks a lot like Toto from Wizard of Oz.
"Chirag Gupta, and I am singleeee." he says seductively with an accent, but then switches over to a normal tone. "I've already used that line before last year. Plus you're dating Rodrick which makes zero sense to me, you shouldn't love him anyways. Have you ever been with a real man?" He eyes you up and down and you look into his hand, which is holding an ACTUAL BEER BOTTLE. This kid was fucking buzzed at your party dressed like a damn dog. You snatch the bottle away from him and march over to the grass to pour it out. Which elicits groans from Chirag. You quickly turn on your heel, careful to not tip over with your tipsy self and start your tirade.
