Swap! Mugman x Tomboy! Reader

⊱ ────── {⋅. ✯ .⋅} ────── ⊰

"Mugs!" Shouted Cuphead, as his eyes glistened with joy.

"What is it, Cups?" Mugman asked before he turned around, seeing him dragging someone from behind him.

"Guess who I bumped into?" Cuphead couldn't help but bounce up and down, in excitement.

"Who?" Mugman's curiosity of the person behind Cuphead; getting the best of him.

"(Y/n)!~" Cuphead giggled, before moving behind the girl.

Mugman's eyes widen in surprise, at the girl in front of him.

She wore a blue baseball cap, a black and blue flannel, dark gray T-shirt, faded gray jeans, black shoes, and white fingerless gloves.

"Long time no see. Huh? Mugs." She spoke, before popping the bubblegum in her mouth.

"I've been doing a lot better now. Not everyone was happy with my choice, but whatever. It wasn't their life." (Y/n) spoke, before taking a drink from her glass of (f/d).

"So how have you guys been? Still searching for the brothers?" Cuphead smiled brightly, and soon, he began to talk about, Bendy.

"He's a pretty nice kid. Aside from his brother, Boris." "Oh. Mind telling me more about this, Boris too?" (Y/n) asked, as she sat back, against the cushioning of the booth (autocorrect put booty instead of booth 😂😂) and waited for Cuphead to speak.

"Well, he's pretty cool too. But-" Mugman quickly got up, before leaving the table and going to the doors that led to restrooms.

Cuphead was about to get up, before he felt (y/n)'s hand on his shoulder. "Stay here. I got this Cups."

He only nodded his head, before sitting back in his spot, looking down at his glass of cocoa, and sighing softly.

Mugman leaned against the wall, looking down at his hand.

In the palm of his hand is a piece of paper. Eyes scanning what was written on the paper.

"Mugs." He quickly put the paper away in his pocket before turning around to face (y/n).

"What's got you?" She asked before folding her arms, and tapping her foot.

"Nothing." Mugman replied, before walking past her. Without hesitation, she pulled his sleeve, stopping him.

"Quit lying. What is bothering you? You never act that way. Especially when you're by Cuphead or rather with him." She looked at him with a serious gaze. Before he sighed deeply, giving up.

"Fine. It's you." He replied, before he turned away. "Just don't bother me anymore." He spoke a bit rudely, before going back to the table, with Cuphead.

"Hey Muggy. Where's (y/n)?" Cuphead asked, as he looked to towards the doors, where Mugman came from.

"She'll be right back." Mugman replied before pulling out his pack of cigarettes, and taking one out.

Not long until (y/n) came back, but she grabbed her skateboard, and satchel/bag.

"Sorry Cups, something suddenly crossed my mind. I'll see you around. Later Mugs." She said, and went out the door.

Not even sparing a glance towards Mugman, before disappearing outside.

"I mean, come on Echo. He obviously has a problem with me. I could tell in his voice. The way he said that I was bothering him." (Y/n) placed her skateboard across her thighs, inhaling sharply, before exhaling.

"Calm down (y/n). Not everything is bound to be low." "Well, you're right about that." (Y/n) looked out the café window, before looking down at the cup of coffee, glaring at it.

"I'm saying, give him the time to understand. You really did change over the years. Look, you've gotten used to being more of a tomboy than a girly girl."

(Y/n) looked at herself before sighing in defeat. Echo was right; she did change a lot over the years.

"You're right. It's just too much for him though." She looked down, sighing softly.

"Listen. It will get better soon. And stick to your own choice." Echo spoke, before placing down a tip for the waiter. "Besides, you got so many opportunities." She got up and looked at (y/n) who was stuck in a gloomy posture.

"Come on (y/n). We've got somewhere to go."

"I'm more stronger than you are!" She folded her arms before turning away from him.

"No! I am. I have powers that you; obviously, don't have!" He replied back in defense before turning away.

"Guys! Stop fighting about whose more stronger or whose more better." Cuphead shouted, before the two stopped fighting.

"I see why you two can't get along." Echo replied gloomily.

"See what I mean?" Cuphead asked.

"Yes. I do now." She replied back before going back into the building.

(Y/n) watched before turning back around, glaring at Mugman. Who happened to do the same.

"Why did I even fall for you?" (Y/n) mumbled quietly, before walking away from Mugman.

"Wait! What'd you say?" He asked, hoping she would repeat it again. But earned nothing in reply.

He decided not to ask about it. As he watched her leave the room, leaving him by himself.

"Why did I leave you? Why do I love you?"

He thought in his mind, before following after (y/n).

Not a great start, but at least I tried. Oh well, hope you enjoyed. (Sorry this one was bad. Promise next one will be a little better.)
