LUCYS COUSIN - ivy / ivory dacus - gets kicked out of her house - IN WHICH her cousin lucy let her move in with her and her 2 bandmates, there's one special girl that stands out to her...
it was now friday night, or i guess saturday. it felt absolutely impossible to fall asleep, so i slipped out of bed and went to the living room. i had reaper by clairo playing quietly while i read on the couch. i went to smoke a couple of times, by the time it was 2AM i had just started scrolling on my phone. —————- Ivys POV
i had a weird dream that i couldn't really recall, i just remember jolting awake and being somewhat panicked. i realized julien wasn't in bed so i walked into the living room, seeing her sitting on the couch. my hair was a mess, i rubbed my eyes a little and whispered, "julien?". i saw her head snap upwards, "hey ivy, what're you doing up?" she asked, standing up and walking towards me. "weird dream." i replied, embracing her without really realizing it. "have you been asleep?" i asked a few moments later, breaking away from her arms. "no, couldn't sleep. my insomnia gets worse when i'm stressed" she explained, "well then let's get you to bed then, yeah?" i said, pushing a few strands of hair out of her face. "yeah" she whispered, i swear our faces were inching closer and closer to one another. "alright come on" i said grabbing her hand, leading us to the room.
we slipped under the covers together, somehow we always ended up cuddling up to one another. my head was laying on her chest, "you smell like smoke" we both giggle. "yea, i had a couple during the night" she responded. "that's okay" i nodded, "thank you ivy" she said. "for what, j?" i asked confused, "everything, you're perfect. goodnight" she said, kissing my forehead then smiling and turning the lamp off. i grinned goofily, "you're welcome jules" i whispered.
i woke up hearing laughing from our living room, as per usual. this time it sounded like a man, which was pretty concerning considering this is a house full of gay women (im kidding phoebe is bi, and we have plenty of friends that are men.) i checked my phone and it was 1 in the afternoon, lucy had texted me.

i turned to julien, who was still sleeping peacefully. i think i'm falling in love with this woman. i push the loose strands of hair that fell in front of her face, behind her ear. "jules, it's 1" i say, making her eyes flutter open, and stir a little. "hm?" she mumbles, rubbing her eyes. "it's one, lucy went to visit her dad and apparently phoebe has someone over" i say softly, "okay" she mumbles, rubbing her eyes and nuzzling her head in my neck. "we need to get up j" i whisper, making her look up at me. our faces were inches apart, i could feel her breath, we were making eye contact, and my heart was fucking racing.
"yea" she nodded, pulling away. i stand up, grabbing the bedside table to catch my balance. i walk out of our room, seeing phoebe and a man on the couch. this man had sort of long brown hair and a little bit of facial hair. the lightbulb immediately turned on in my head, this man was bo burnham. luckily they didn't see me, so i went back in our room.
i ran in and quietly shut the door, "WHY THE FUCK IS BO BURNHAM IN OUR HOUSE" i asked julien in a whisper-yell. "ohhh, him and phoebe have like a thing or something, i think" julien replied, "like a thing THING or...?" i asked. "yea i'm pretty sure they're dating, i've seen them kiss before. i mean when we ask she doesn't deny it or anything, but she also hasn't confirmed anything. to be fair i've only seen them kiss once so i don't know." julien shrugged. i just sat there comfused.
