How to Love (C!Quackity x reader)

Your New Job

     You didn't sleep at all the rest of the night. You couldn't when you knew your dog was under Quackity's control. The next day you were exhausted after your adventure. But you had to go meet up with Quackity, you were scared of the consequences if you didn't.

You got to the casino, you brought Pixie with you to keep her safe, and she can do her job in protecting you as well. When you went into the casino you saw people playing games and gambling. You also saw Charlie working as a bartender. It seemed like he had gloves on so he didn't get slime everywhere. You were surprised no one knew he was a slime man, everyone thought he was just a green guy.

As you walked past Charlie you waved. He waved back, he was a very nice guy and you hoped you would get to know him more. You heard him say something behind you.

"Good morning Y/n from... from.." Charlie seemed to be remembering something, but you ignored him.

You ignored him, he was saying random things that you didn't understand. You kept moving.

Eventually, you saw Quackity in a lounge area. He was surrounded important looking people. When you got closer to him he turned to you.

"Ah, Y/n! Please, join me." He patted a spot next to him, motioning you to sit there. You put on a fake smile and sat next to him. Quackity and the man kept talking to each other about random things that you couldn't care less about. Eventually, the man left with a satisfied face.

"Finally, I thought that guy wouldn't stop talking." Quackity sighed. "What did you need again?"

"You were going to give me a job, dumbass."

"Ah, right. Follow me, you're going to be a server in a restaurant not too far from here. I want you to eavesdrop on any and every conversation and write anything you think is important in a book. Sound good?"

"Su-"

"Great." He cut you off. You hated this guy with every bone in your being. Out of all the people that could've convinced you to join their nation, why'd it have to be him?

After a bit of walking and awkward silence, you got to the restaurant. It was small but it seemed quite popular. The sign on top of the building said 'Las Nevadas Burgers'. There were about two servers and two cooks in the back. It was cozy though and the workers didn't seem too overwhelmed. You might actually like this job.

"Here it is. Your outfit is in the back. I'll check on you in a bit."

Quackity immediately left you alone. You walked into the back of the restaurant and found an outfit hanging for you. The outfit was Quackity's but instead of the red tie and suspenders, it was [f/c]. You didn't question how he knew your favorite color. You tried on the outfit and it fit well. You kept the top two buttons unbuttoned and the tie untied as well. You looked in the mirror and damn, you never knew how good you would look in a button-up.

     You walked out into the main part of the building. You felt the stares of people but you couldn't care.

     Another server showed you the ropes of how to serve, take orders, and give them to the cooks. It didn't take long to get the hang of it.

     Quackity came back about an hour later.

     "Hey, you getting the hang of it?" He asked when he sat down at the bar.

     "Yeah, can I get you anything?" Yeah, you hated him but you could still be nice and offer something.

     "Nah, I'm good." He replied. So you went back to cleaning some glasses. You could feel Quackity's eyes on you as you worked.

     "Can you stop staring at me?"

     You heard him huff in response. And out of the corner of your eye, he looked away. What a bitch. Did he not have any respect? Nor human decency?

     "I will leave you now to work. Have fun I guess."

     You sighed in response. You were glad he was leaving you. Out of all the things that could happen to you why did Quackity have to be one?

     This guy was a horrible human being and you had the pleasure of meeting him and now working for him. Hopefully, he owns up to what he promised you when he forcefully made you agree.

     The rest of the day you did your job. Right around 10 pm, Charlie came around asking for you.

"Oh hey, Charlie! Can I get you anything?" You asked excitedly. You wanted to talk to someone after eavesdropping all day.

"Can I get an orange juice? No pulp?"

"Of course." You watched as he sat down at the bar in front of you. You got a cup and got the carton of orange juice and poured it out into the cup. "So, did you need anything else?" You asked.

"I mean, I wanted to ask you something."

"And I will answer to the best of my ability. What's up?"

"So I am a slime, I know, I'm not a human. But that's not the point. I have been on this planet for many years. I have seen and heard everything around here. I know about you. But, I have seen you everywhere. In every war, you are in the background, over years and years. Every single time. How? How have you been everywhere at every single point in time?"

What kind of question was that? You were so confused, why did he think that?

"I- I don't know. I don't remember any of that. You must've been hallucinating or something, Char. I am a spy, but I wasn't in the past."

"You're probably right. It must've been your ancestors or something. Did you come from a long line of spies?"

"I have no clue. I never really had a guardian when I grew up."

"Ah, I apologize for asking Y/n from everywhere."

"It's okay. We're closing any minute now. I recommend you finish your orange juice and be on your way."

"Oh, okay!" Then Charlie put his finger into the drink and you watched as his bright green skin turned slightly more orange. Making a weird brown color in his hand and arm. It was unsettling to see.

He finished quickly and said goodbye. You cleaned up some remaining dishes and closed up the building.

With Pixie by your side, you headed back to your sad apartment building. You thought Quackity would make your life better at first. You were sadly mistaken.

When you got into your house you immediately collapsed on your bed. It's crazy how quickly your life can change after meeting one person.
