Old fools (Stanford pines x Reader)

Chapter 15

Long chapter for my pookies<3

Y/N P.O.V.

I woke up, my head pounding. I let out a loud groan, I'm never drinking so much. I guess I overdid it with the shots.

I reached around for my glasses when I felt something hairy touch my hand. I quickly take my hand back and look to my side.

Wait

Waitwaitwaitwait

Nononononononono

Stanford was right next to me, snoring softly. Oh gods no I must've dragged poor Stanford here after drinking!! Fuck!!

I take a quick look to myself to see I'm shirtless. Please tell me we didn't– no, there's no way we did or else I'd feel it. Wh- Why the hell am I shirtless?!

I slowly and quietly get out of bed and put on a simple shirt. Do- Do I offer him coffee?? I don't even have coffee in my kitchen! Just cells and experiments!

Come to think of it, I should probably clean up my kitchen. I will eventually so whatever.

My thinking gets cut off when I hear him shift, I look at him and see he's sitting up, rubbing his eyes. I reached to the bedside table and grabbed my glasses, putting them on.

He looked at me and blinked a few times. We silently studied each other for a few seconds before he spoke "uh- good morning Y/N" he smiled awkwardly.

I looked away "good- good morning Ford" saying back to him.

We stood there in silence for a bit more. Then I asked "umm.. what uh- what happened last night?" He raised an eyebrow and asked "you don't remember?"

I shook my head, all this tension making my head hurt a lot more. I wince and he gets up. "Are you alright?" He walks over to me and puts his hand on my shoulder. I flinch and back up, avoiding his touch.

We kept direct eye contact for a second then I looked away and said "uhh! Yes yes I'm fine! Just uh- hungover" I looked back at him and he looked a little hurt.

I then said "maybe you should go back home. Stan and the kids are probably worried! Plus I need to take a shower and I'd rather be alone you know"

He sighed and nodded slowly, grabbing his boots and putting them on.

I scratch my arm, standing here awkwardly. I clear my throat then walk out of my room and to the living room. Thinking.

'gods, I'm too old for petty drama like this! Fuck I hope I didn't say anything weird last night'

"I'll see you later?" He asked and I looked at him, blinking a few times. "Uhh I think I'd rather spend the day quietly" I said, trying to look relaxed. He hummed in response when my phone buzzed from the kitchen.

I walk in and grab it, flipping it open. Then exclaimed "shit! I totally forgot I wanted Dipper to assist me in some experiments today!" Ford looked at me wide eyed then asked "I'd like to believe they're safe experiments?"

I bit my nail, "uhh yeah yeah sure" I said blankly, accidentally avoiding his question. I picked up the phone and said "good morning Dipper. Y-Yes yes he's here. No. I-I don't know? Yes, we're still on for today. Alright see you in 3 hours" I hung up and groaned.

Ford cleared his throat, grabbing my attention "I should go" I nodded and waved. "Yes, see you, bye" I told him blankly and went back into the kitchen.

I heard him sigh and he opened the door, leaving and closing it behind him.

I poured myself into work, cleaning the kitchen, scrubbing down the safety equipment and taking a well needed shower, avoiding my thoughts.
