Not Too Bad. [Arthur Kirkland x Reader]

The Invite.

"Yo dude! I'm having a rad slumber party tonight! you should so come!" Your obnoxious best friend yelled threw the phone. you sweat dropped,

"Alfred..last time we had a sleepover the microwave exploded and the whole house almost caught fire!" you said trying to reason with him.

"yeah! it was totally cool. my other friend is coming and i think we'll have so much fun. just come along!" before you could respond he ends it. you look down at your phone and sigh. you knew you had to come along, if you didn't, then someone would probably die.

you grab a nike duffel bag and throw stuff you'll need. you sigh and throw your bag over your shoulder and got your keys to drive over. Alfred didn't have many friends but hopefully it wasn't just him and you again, he didn't mention another friend but it might just be Arthur again.

you got into your car, immediately turning on the seat warmers and twisting the key in the lock. you turn on your radio and pull out of your driveway.

Alfred doesn't live far, about 10 minutes. You enjoyed hanging out with him, but things are always crazy with him. When ever you played games with him, he was the hero; of course. His friend Arthur was always the villain and you were the helpless victim. He always said because you were the girl.

soon you pull into his driveway and park your car. you take your keys out and stuff them in your purse, then stuffing your purse in your bag, stepping out of your car. you walk up pushing your duffel bag further up your shoulder and knock loudly. seconds later, Alfred opens the door smiling.

"Yo dudette! finally, Arthur was here way before you." he moves over so you can step in.

"Is it only gonna be me, you and arthur again?" you ask slipping your shoes off and placing them neatly by the door mat.

"well everyone else was busy!" he says shutting the door. you chuckle upon yourself and set your bag down.

"where is Arthur?" you say turning to face him. he looks at you and smiles;

"living room. i'm gonna order a pizza. you didn't eat before you came here right?" he says bending down to your height a bit. he was pretty tall for a guy who just sits and eats all day.

"no." you rolls your eyes laughing walking over to the living room where you see Arthur intently watching a tv show.

"hello Arthur." you smile and sit down next to him.

he turns to you and smiles lightly; "ello love."

you loved when he called you love, it made you feel tingly inside. you and Arthur go way back. you both met in primary school and have been pretty close for a while. right when you both went into middle school ,he drifted away and hung out with more of the guys. you didn't really mind because he was just trying to make more friends but you and him never hung out after that. you made a new friend named Alfred, been friends all through middle school and high school.

one day Alfred had a birthday party with his two best friends, Arthur and y/n. after that all three of you did almost everything together. You instantly clicked.

"so Arthur, find a good college yet?" you ask trying to make conversation. he turns and his bright green eyes look deeply into your e/c ones.

"ah yes. i've been looki-" he gets cut off by Alfred.

"yo do any of you have 2 bucks? i'm out of cash and the pizza guy is waiting~" he rings back.

"i do." you stand up and walk over to him. you unzip your duffel bag which contained your purse and grab your wallet. you grab 5 bucks, "keep the change." you hand him it and he smiles blushing slightly as you both accidentally brush hands. you turn and walk back to the living room, "thanks dude!" Alfred yells to you.

"its dudette! and no big deal." you yell back and sit back down, after a few seconds Alfred comes running back into the room and slams the door with his foot.

"time to eat~" he smiles at you and Arthur.

"and y/n, that guy was totally hitting on you!" he laughs loudly, and you shift uncomfortably.

"oh shut up." you mumble grabbing a plate and napkin.

"come on, you totally likes him back." Alfred says taking a bite of his pizza. you choke up on your pizza slice.

"I-I just met him!" you mumble through the food stuffed in your mouth.

"Arthur don't you think y/n is lonely?" Alfred smirks. Arthur looks between you both.

"e-eh? well you're both my friends..I don't want to pick sides." he says shrugging.

"he picked mine!" you say probably.

"buh bye. he definitely picked mine." Alfred crosses his arms.

"Alfred you're being ridiculous. no way she could like him, she just met him. I'm picking her side." Arthur says taking a sip of his drink.

"what ever!" Alfred says turning the tv volume up. you chuckle and then to Alfred and mouth;

thank you~

he smiles back you, mouthing back;

you're so welcome~
