Downers [Andrew Graves X Male OC]

Chapter 6: GreenGreenGreen

"Omen, you go first." "Why??" "I don't want to die." "You are so sweet, Ashley, thank you so much." A sarcastic smile is given with your gratitude, moving past the two to lead inside the unknown room.

"Hey, Hey hold up! Don't you dare come any closer!! Who are you!?" Oh, a girl. You step closer while putting your hands in the air to show you have no weapons, "...Your neighbors from upstairs?" "What are you doing here!? Get out!!" Her hands extend in front of her to keep you far. "Well we found the keys and thought you might want to get out of here...?" "You thought wrong! Get lost!!" Her words make you stop everything, giving her a puzzled look, "huh?"

"What don't you understand!?" "...You... don't want to get out of here?" Now Andrew speaks, stepping to be side by side. "That's what I said! Why would I want out? I get free food, and can play games all day long! I live like a king! I hope this quarantine never ends!" "Wait, wait... they actually bring you food?" He's even more confused, you were going to ask about her games. "Of course. Literally anything I want. All you gotta do is ask nicely." She bats her eyes at you, pointing to chips laid on her tv stand. You make your way closer to see what other food she has, multiple junk foods spread across the room and her bed. She asked very nicely. 'You are pretty..' you whisper, putting the pieces together in your mind.

"Like 'bend over and open wide' -nicely?"

"ASHLEY!!" Both you and Andrew yell in unison, "Fuck you. Get out! Both of you!!" the lady begins shooing them, "both??" Ashley stops, already irritated at the thought of her keeping you. "Yeah, the redhead was nice. He can stay if he wants, he looks like he's starving." "WHAT!?"

"Maybe it's not so bad.." You jokingly debate out loud, feeling Ashley's glare intensify as you sit on her bed, "You can-" "He's not fucking staying." Andrew kills the conversation, you smile and stand, pushing the other two out with an apology to the lady.

"What the fuck was that?" Andrew pushes your shoulder, your back hitting the door before you push him back, "How come we got such different treatment? Why don't I get food!?" Ashley stands between you two, crying once more. "Guess you're just not pretty enough." Her brother's tone's flat, not caring about her whining. "...You think she's pretty?" You and Ashley ask together, both offended. He can't be mad at you if he found her pretty too.

"I mean... Wasn't she? Isn't that what this whole thing was about?" "...... Whatever." You hum collecting yourself as you stand straight again.

"Is it okay to leave her there after she saw us though?" Andrew asks, "Probably not... But you go in there swinging your cleaver, and she'll definitely scream. Then the second warden comes in and shoots us." Ashley makes her point, not eager to see the girl so soon again anyways. ".....Ugh. This is so hopeless.... I think our best bet is to finish the ritual and use it to get rid of the second warden." The boy begins leading them towards the stairs again. "Hmm.... Well..... If we can get this woman up to the cultist's room, we've got us a soul to offer." "How on earth are we going to convince her lazy ass to even leave her room??" "The redhead can convince her." She actually makes you laugh, Andrew smiling as he finds the whole thing silly now. "Yeah, sure, only if Andrew helps." "We can find another way." Ashley moans, accepting her defeat.

"Let's just finish setting up the ritual for now." All three of you make your way up the steps, listening to him. "Do you really think I'm not pretty enough?" She stops in front, turning to tired Andrew, "OH, c'mon!" "So ugly am I, that I shouldn't even be fed??" "Or maybe they didn't think it'd be fun to screw you, while your brother and his best friend are loitering around the house???" "Oh.... Yeah, okay. Fair point." "And I wouldn't let them anyway." His protests make you roll your eyes, pushing them to continue walking, "you both need lives."
