Lambency (Ingo x Reader)

41. Movie Night

"Hi, (Name)! I am Emmet! You are cordially invited to our sleepover!"

"... Say that again?"

"HAAA! PLEASE, WAIT! My sincerest apologies, (Name)!", Ingo interrupts and places himself between you and Emmet, his face flushed with embarrassment. Chandelure is floating by his side. "W-What Emmet means by sleepover is that we're organising a movie night and your attendance would be more than welcome!"

"Yeah! That's exactly what I said!", Emmet pouts. His Durant snaps his mandibles.

"A movie... night?"

"That's correct!"

"Where?"

"At our place! At the end of the week!"

Your heart skips a beat and you are slightly thrown off balance as your cheeks uncontrollably turn scarlet red.

"I-I'm aware this is a belated invitation, therefore you have no obligation to accept if you must be elsewhere..."

"It's days in advance, not a last minute request.", chimes in Emmet.

"Still, I wouldn't want to take you away from your duties... Or perhaps you're used to spend the nights with your loved ones..."

"Like your date!", Emmet bluntly rectifies.

"I-I haven't got a d-date! I-I live with my Pokémon..."

"Oh! How fortunate!", Ingo and Chandelure beam. "I-I mean, h-how fortunate you've got no plan! It would be great if you could join us... We're also inviting Elesa, Skyla and Cilan! How does that sound...?"

His eyes are glowing with anticipation and hope, while Chandelure's flames are alluringly glowing.

"Sounds like a plan! I'd love to join, thank you! How unexpected..."

"Why not? We thought we made it clear when we treated you to a meal on Palentine's Day. We are friends!", tells Emmet joyfully. 

Ingo nods briskly.

"Indeed, (Name)! I sincerely hope this feeling of friendship is reciprocated!"

"Of course, Ingo and Emmet! Thank you so much!"

You do not know where to put yourself. You feel so happy this instant!

"And how do we proceed to choose a movie? Realistically, we can't be watching six of them..."

"Each of us will come forward with a suggestion, then we'll vote with our hands up. Potentially, we could watch two movies, depending on the duration."

"Neat, uh? If we're six, that would give us plenty of choices. And we could always organise another movie night at someone else's and watch something we didn't pick before."

"Oh, right! I'd be glad to host it at my place, next time! There's plenty of room!", you tell them.

"Excellent! I'm looking forward to it!"

"You should know that Ingo is keen to see where you live!"

Ingo gasps before clearing his throat.

"Hum! Emmet! The way you said it sounded outrageously innapropriate! Please, (Name), pay no mind to his words!"

"But you did say you were curious to know where (Name)'s house is--"

Ingo graps his brother by the collar of his coat and pulls him towards him.

"In any case! We've got work to do! If you'll please excuse us, (Name), we must attend to our lines."

"No problem! Let's keep in touch!", you reply.
