Ocean Boy: A Lance x Reader Love Story

Chapter 1

It becomes pretty evident after a while that Lance McClain is the most irritating and idiotic person to ever exist. His constant flirting drives you to the brink of insanity and you continuously snap at him. He makes jokes the whole time he attempts to bandage your head, leg and arm. He breakdances while he wipes up your blood from the floor.

After two hours of listening to his whole life story, you're ready to murder him. You could care less about his abuelos, tios, primos, y hermanos. After another hour where he hums obnoxiously, you start to feel a little hungry.

"Yo, McClain."

"Yes, princess?" He gives you a charming smile.

You punch his arm with your left hand. "Do you have any food on this thing?"

"Food?"

"Yeah. You know, you eat it when you're hungry. It gives you energy, you need it to live... Food." You try to spell it out as much as you can because you know his primitive mind can't function very well.

"I know what food is!" Lance frowns. "I just- don't have any."

You stare at him. "What."

"I don't usually stay on Blue for this long so there's never really any need for food..."

You force yourself to take a deep breath. "Are you telling me," Your voice is steely calm. "That we are not only stranded in space, but we are stranded in space without any sustenance?!"

"Sustenance?"

"FOOD!" You bellow.

He winces and wiggles a finger in his ear. "Geez, you're loud. You are correct, we are stranded in space without any food."

At that moment, the lights go off.

"McClain, please tell me that's supposed to happen."

"Uh..."

"YOU IDIOT!" You aim blindly at him in the dark, feeling satisfied when your fist collides with his face.

"OW! STOP HITTING ME, WOMAN!"

"WELL, GET US OUT OF THIS FRIGGEN SITUATION AND MAYBE I WILL!"

"UGH!! I CAN'T!" He pushes you and you fall back against the wall. You cry out as your injured arm smashes into the controls.

"Shit! I'm sorry!" He helps you to your feet.

Scowling, you rip your arm out of his grasp. "I don't need your help."

He sighs. "Whatever."

Huffing you sit, back against the wall. "So what're we supposed to do now?"

"Wait."

"Wait?"

"Wait."

"Wait for what?"

"For my friends to rescue me!" Lance sits next to you.

You scoot away from him. "You have friends?"

"Ouch."

A pause.

"So how long is this waiting gonna be, do you think?"

"No idea."

"Great. Just... great."
