Opposites attract: Helluva Boss Loona x Reader

Close for comfort

With a push of your shoulder, you forced open the door to your apartment and emptied your pockets on the nearby countertop, "I'm fucking exhausted" you complain with a stretch, "I had no idea we'd be gone for that long"

Loona wandered in quickly after, closing the door behind her while sporting a similar stance, "Definitely the longest on my record" she grumbled, "We better get paid overtime for that shit"

You turned to face her with a smirk, "You do remember it was our fuckup that caused it all"

She frowned, swiftly lifting the keys from your paw, "That's irrelevant" she stated whilst heading to lock the door.

"Right," you sarcastically agree.

Pulling out your phone, you notice the screen hadn't changed from its last input, leaving you on Ellie's contact number, "Hey, you haven't heard from Ellie lately have you?" You ask, noting she still hadn't seen your message.

"Umm, not since we last saw her, why?" Loona replied, seemingly oblivious to your worried state.

With a click of the power button, you sigh, "I don't know, she's just not replying to my messages is all"

You knew you were being irrational but a deep feeling persisted in your stomach with no sign of leaving, "She'll be fine, not everyone's addicted to their phone Eli" she poked with a smile.

"That's rich coming from you" you retorted, prompting a sour expression from her.

"Anyway, I'm tired, and your gonna be my pillow, now" she stated, grasping your paw and dragging you to the bedroom.

Her sleepy commands sent butterflies to your stomach as her weak muscles tried to grip your fur tightly, "I don't have a problem with that" you breathe as she cautiously began to strip.

"I bet you don't" she yawned, patiently waiting for you to get ready before pulling you under the covers, carefully snuggling up under your arms, "Goodnight baby, I love you"

You held her gently and cuddled closer, "I love you too" you replied softly.

It didn't take long for her breath to slow to a calm pace as her consciousness began to fade, you found it adorable, "You'll never be alone again" you whisper, "I promise"

(Time skip eight hours)

You awoke to the sensation of water gushing across the hall, your ears tingling as they tuned in on the relaxing audio. Pushing your arms out across the bed, you quickly found it to be empty causing the pieces to click in your head, "It's not like her to be up early" you utter in a rough voice as you began to rub the sleep from your eyes.

Deciding on getting up, you lift the covers from your body, resting on the edge of the bed for a moment, before stepping over to your wardrobe to fish out some fresh clothes. You grasp your usual culprits and climb into them, making your way out into the hall once you do so. The steam from Loona's shower could be seen creeping out from underneath the bathroom door filling the air with a humid touch. Your ears suddenly perk at a soft noise coming from inside, you could barely hear it over the shower but it sounded like, "Singing?" You thought with a grin. She was trying to avoid being caught which just made it even more attractive to you.

Continuing into the kitchen, you prepare to make some breakfast for the both of you but were happily surprised to find a haphazardly put-together pancake breakfast waiting for you, "What the fuck" you whispered in confusion. Looking across the countertop, you find it in disarray with splotches of batter covering almost every surface imaginable, obviously she hadn't had time to clean up.

With a sigh, you grab some wipes from a nearby drawer and begin to wipe up the mess, making sure to taste the cooking as you did. You hastily sliced a piece with the side of a fork and lifted it to your muzzle, it was cooked perfectly, "I can't believe it" you mutter in astonishment.
