The secret series oneshots

Cassernest "stuck in a mall"

Cass pulled forward, Max-Ernest in tow. Cass absentmindedly reached for Max's hand, twining their fingers together. Max blushed and turned away.

"The mall will be closing in 5 minutes. " said the voice over the loudspeaker. Cass suddenly stopped and turned, making Max quickly screech to a halt. "Heh, I've got an idea. " "what? " "what if we hid in the mall until opening? Having a whole mall to ourselves would be great! " max's eyelids fluttered. "Why-why would we do that? " Cass shrugged, grinning. "Sneaking practice, obviously! " "wait Cass, isn't this a bad ide-" before Max could say anything, however, he was cut off by Cass grabbing him by the collar, reaching behind him, and opening a door, blindly stumbling in.

For a moment Max thought she had opened a door to a store, but his back hit a tiled wall. Oh, he thought, its a gender neutral bathroom. Cass was right up to him, foreheads nearly touching. It was uncomfortably close. Max could feel himself burning up, and Cass just smiled. She pulled away after what felt like hours, but was probably seconds. "Uh, now what? " Max said. "We wait. " Cass responded.

So they waited.

And waited.

And waited.

Eventually they heard something through the speakers, but it was so bad quality they didn't understand. Soon the lights shut off, And they were left in the dark. Max immediately panicked. "Ah! I-I can't see a thing! " as they were stumbling towards the door, they bumped together awkwardly. Finally finding the door and stumbling out, their hands found each other again.

The entire mall was dark, save for the occasional light pouring through the windows from the evening sunset. "We... Did not think this through. "
"Yup. "
"We're stuck here. "
"Uh-huh. "
"Forrr... The rest of the night. "
"Yes, that is correct. "
"... Why did we do this again? "
Cass shrugged and looked him in the eyes. "I mean, I initially said 'for sneaking practice' but I actually used that as an excuse to hang out with you. " Cass said, winking. Max bit his lip and blushed, he always thought it was cute when she did that.

Cass had eaten (and attempted to snort, to Max's utter horror) at least half a canister of protein powder, and Max had eaten seven-and-a-half chocolate bars, before a genius idea let itself be known in Cass's sugar-high brain. "Hey Max, y'ever tried alcohol? " she said nonchalantly. She glanced in the general direction of the sign, trying to read it in the dim illumination of the flashlight ("we're just borrowing it, Max, don't get your pants in a twist! " she had said)

The dispensary for alcohol was a few sections down , Cass noted, as the both of them walked down. Opening the store door and walking to the back where the most expensive things were, she grabbed a skull-shaped vial and took a swig.

And nearly vomited.

"HOLY HELL! " she shouted in surprise, the alcohol stinging her mouth. She glanced at Max-ernest bashfully, who was staring at her in shock. "L-lets uh, start with the weak stuff, maybe..? "

"WOOOOOO! " screamed Cass as she was pushed through the mall by Max. Both were drunk out of their minds at this point, and it was surprising that they could still function at all. Stopping the shopping cart slowly, Cass stumbled towards Max, half-formed ideas and thoughts floating around her head.

Max and Cass were both equally drunk, and didn't really think of what they were doing, more of just what they wanted to do. Cass pulled Max closer to her, grabbing his shoulders, trying to close enough space between them. Max didn't really respond, just smile dumbly.

As their two mouths connected, Cass's mouth was flooded with the mixed taste of both chocolate and some type of vodka. Max barely responded (not that he didn't want this to happen in the first place, but he more of just lacked skill or confidence).

Max's mind was both frozen and rushing at the same time. His face as flushing immensely bright, and he just didn't know what to do. Experimentally, he placed one hand on Cass's hip and one hand on the back of her head. Cass leaned into his hand. Okay, so far, so good. Very, very gently, he tugged on one of Cass's braids.

Cass very noticably twitched. They quickly separated, Max looking nervous and Cass looking... Almost confused. "Oh, my gosh! Cass, I'm sorry! Did-did that hurt you? Are you oka-"
"Do that again. "
"Ec-excuse me? "
"Do it again. " was the only thing that came out of her mouth before he grabbed his arm and reconnected their mouths. Max complied, reaching and pulling on her braids, a little harder this time. Cass smiled into the kiss, biting down on his lip. Max gasped a little, and Cass took the chance to slip her tongue into his mouth. They continued for a little while.

Cass's eyes suddenly shot open.

They separated quickly, Cass putting a hand over her mouth before rushing away a few feet to the wall. She then vomited, the effects of alcohol finally taking place. Cass slowly turned towards Max. "Ah, sorry. Can-can we continue what we were-" oh. Max had fallen unconscious.

🏵👑the day after👑🏵

Cass's mom had been shocked to discover that her daughter was being arrested for robbery and breaking into a mall overnight with her friend. Cass and Max were spending 6 months behind bars. But both of them knew that this was just the start of a whole new world of possibilities. Soon they'd be pulling this again. And when the time arises, Cass thought as she was put into a cell, they'd be sorry they allowed this to happen in the first place.

They'd see.
Oh, how they would see.
