"she plays guitar?" wilbur soot x reader

9pm

I had packed all the gifts I bought and, as promised, headed downstairs to help Will.

As I step down the last step of the stairs, I can see Will look directly at me and drop the shit he was holding. He sprint walks in my direction and something in me says that he'll... do what Jared did.

"STOP! PLEASE, NO! I DON-'T Wa- n- nt t- to!" I say in between cries. I drop to the ground and curl up into a ball, screaming and crying. Will looks terrified. He doesn't know what to do. Normally, he'd hug me, but he thinks that I desperately don't want him to when in reality a hug from him is all I need.

He lays down right next to me, slowly. He doesn't say anything, he just looks into my eyes. "I'm here. I'm here and I'm not going to touch you, Y/n. I'm just here, alright? Just say the words and I'll leave or hug, or simply continue staring at you. Just breathe, alright?" he says in a calming voice. This voice. That's the one that calms me down.

I slowly calm down and finally look into Wilbur's eyes. "Sorry..." I whisper. He smiles a bit. "It's alright, love. I'm just glad you're okay..." he says, still looking at me. I start to shift a bit to get up and eventually stand up. "Are you alright? For the record, I was just going to hug you as an apology for earlier. I don't know why I was upset." he says.

"I'm sorry for reacting like that. I just... I saw an old friend at the mall and it gave me memories from school and I got a bit jumpy, sorry." I lie. I see Will's eyes shift, indicating he wants the truth. "I saw Jared." I say looking away from him. "What? Did he do something? Are you alright? Did he hurt you?" Wilbur spirals as he runs a bit closer to me and grabs my shoulder.

"No, he just said something. I'm not telling you exactly what, but I'll say... it was a catcall." I say. "Also, no time to talk about it. It's half past four and Niki texted me that they're on the bus heading home. I know for a fact that it comes here. The only bus that comes RIGHT here is the one from Bognor Regis. They went to Toby's." I explain.

"What? I-...alright? Where's my child?" Will asks. "He said he's stuck in a crowd of fans taking photos, so we'll be free for a bit. Okay, I'm gonna assume none of those bozos thought to buy shit, so I should... No, you should go to the store and get a shit ton of alcohol." I correct myself, knowing what happens when I'm in a liquor store.

"Alright. You'll be alright, yea?" he asks. "Probably. I'm a fast cook and they'll only be back at like half past seven, so the food'll be done by then. All we'll have to do is get ready and start the party by then." I say. "Don't do anything you wouldn't do in front of me, alright?" he says, winking as he does.

"WILL!" I yell, knowing fully what dirty minded shit just went through his mind. "Well, you can do THAT. I know you'd do in front of me. I more meant the mental health stuff." Will says. "Firstly, I wouldn't. Why would I? Second, go get alcohol. I'm allowing myself two drinks." I say. Will chuckles and leaves the house.

What the fuck was that?

That was more than usual.

More... lustful.

We both know that we want each other, but fuck, is this difficult to get at.

I'm done cooking and am currently unpacking alcohol with Will. I had decided on my drink choices for tonight. First, a martini. Will says he'll act as a bartender if anyone wants cocktails. Then, a glass of sipping whiskey. It'll last a while and won't work that well. Whiskey doesn't have a huge effect on me.

"Hey, Y/n? Are you allowing Tommy to drink?" Will asks. "Well, I can't really hold him back, can I? I trust he won't go too overboard. I'll definitely be keeping an eye on him and Jack. Gee told me that Jack likes to drink on special occasions and I know Tom will try to follow." I say.

Since Gee started dating Jack, I've been in disbelief that Jack actually exists. There have been theories about him being AI, but Jack? Jack Manifold? Thunder? No way he's got a girl.

"That's a good point. Jack gets stupid drunk. It's hard to watch at times, actually. I'll probably stick to wine with Quackity. He's a funny guy, I think you'd get along." he says. "Hey, do you think I could do shots with someone? It's New Years. I wanna celebrate for real and that would usually mean a meter of shots." I say.

"Look, you're an adult with the responsibility of your own life. I would advise against it, but at the end of the day, it's your choice and your choice only. If you can trust yourself, then go ahead, but I don't think you can." Will says as he walks away to the living room where he sets a few bottles down.

There's a lot of alcohol everywhere.

It's now 9pm. I've talked to mostly Niki, Aims, Ran and Bill. I said hi to everyone, but these four actually started up conversation. Dream and George were upstairs. We assumed they were drunk and making decisions they'd regret tomorrow, but when they came back they announced that they're dating. #truther (im not a dnf truther but theyd be cute asf)

Sapnap has been checking me out all night and so has Freddie. They've both made their attempts at flirting, but I've only flirted back to Wilbur.

I'm not too fond of Freddie. He keeps "accidentally" groping me. I've done a shot and am holding a glass of whiskey in my hand while talking to mainly Bill, Ran and Aimee. Niki went over to Puffy. "Are you like interested in Freddie? He looks at you like you've already fucked him." Bill says.

"God no. He's been... never mind. I'ma go find Will. I wanna talk to him."

09:30pm

I finally found Wilbur in the backyard. "Y/n, are you alright? Oh, this is Alex. Big Q, if you may." Will says laughing a bit. "Oh, yeah, Quackity? I've seen your content. Funny guy. Good merch. Good lore, too. The Las Nevadas finale and the merch drop lore stream - phenomenal." I say. Q looks flattered. He looks at Will. "I get it now." he says. "Hm?" I hum. "NOTHING!" Will yells.

Yup, somethings up.

I head to the pool. There's many people outside, but I can feel one staring at me. Floris.

He's hammered as he walks to me. "You're so sexy..." he says, burping every few seconds. He leans down to my face and attempts to kiss me. Forgetting I'm by the edge of a pool, I step back.

Cold.
