The Other Side (Whitty x Ruv)

17.5 - 3, 2, 1, Go!

TW: Alcohol

The apartment was suddenly bombarded with people at exactly 6 PM. They all planned to host a party at some point to celebrate the four roommates' move-in and to just have a full-on rap battle, and as soon as the doors were open, everyone was there. It was almost like a surprise celebration in reverse.

"Heyyy gang!" Agoti, who astonishingly was neat and clean-cut for the occasion, went to greet everyone with a smug smile.

Sarv waltzed in, heading straight for Ruv to give him a good hug.

"Hi Ruv!! I miss you!!!" Sarv squeezed him tightly, her smile vibrant and contagious.

"Hello Sarv..." Ruv pats her back gently, waiting for her death grip to be removed.

Carol and Hex did the same for Whitty, who laughed and picked them both up in his arms in response.

"Woah bro, do you go to the gym nowadays? You seem a lot stronger!" Hex laughed.

"Mhm, I've grown more used to the city now." Whitty grinned at Hex and Carol.

"That's great to hear! This party looks really amazing- like how much effort did Agoti put into it??" Carol pointed out, giggling.

"A lot, actually. I guess he wants to make today a fun night for everyone!"

. . .

Strings of lights are all around the foyer, living room, and kitchen. The living room was opened up so others could sing and dance. The evening glow made the place look additionally enticing and beautiful.

"Alright, who's up first?" Tabi asks the wave of guests. He was eager to rap battle again, and Agoti had convinced him to help host in some way, as it was his house as well.

Boyfriend immediately pushed to the front and cheered, jumping up and down. The rest of the crowd followed, moving him and GF to the 'stage.'

"Oh yeah, little guy? You and I have history, so you better be careful this time around." Tabi glared threateningly at him, but it appeared to be a joke.

Boyfriend stares at Tabi determinedly and holds his personal mic at the ready. Girlfriend sits on their speakers as per the norm.

The music begins to play, and they both start off their verses powerful and energetic. Everyone was enjoying the song and vibing along to the intense beat and rhythm. Meanwhile, Whitty, Agoti, and Ruv were watching from the kitchen, with bottles in their hands.

"Tabi looks like he's enjoying himself." Agoti smirked and took a swig from his bottle. "Wow, that's pretty fire. How did you know I liked this stuff Whitmore?"

Whitty shrugged and chugged down his bottle, which was filled with his all-time favorite. "I just do. Are you already getting woozy there yet, Ruv?"

Ruv gazed at Whitty after taking a small sip from his drink. "No. Not at all. It's hard for me to get drunk."

"Oho, then you'd better watch out for Whitmore! He doesn't drink the best..." Agoti chuckled and finished his bottle, wiping his mouth. "Ah, I don't really either. Good luck to you and Tabi."

Ruv stared at him blankly, displeased.

Through all of this, Tabi and Boyfriend had finished their round, with Boyfriend being victorious. One by one, others began singing against each other. Sarv vs. Carol (Sarv won), Carol vs. Boyfriend, and so on.

Whitty then wiped his mouth with his fist and stood up.

"Yo Ruv, wanna battle?"

Ruv nodded curtly. "Okay."
