Opposites Don't Attract. {PDH Laurance X Reader}

Rain in May

(Y/n)'s POV

I was studying for my math final when all of a suddon my phone rang.

I groaned and looked at the caller ID. It was Laurance.

"Hey, babe. What's up?" I ask when I answer the call.

He made a muffled noise. "Did you just call me 'babe'?"

I blushed a dark red. I hadn't even realized I called him that. "Maybe."

He chuckled. "Anyways, do you wanna watch a movie or a show tonight?"

"What do you mean?"

"Don't you remember? We agreed to have a small marathon on prom night since we're not going." I could hear the disappointment in his voice.

I frown. "No, I remember! I'm sorry, I'm just caught up with finals. They're stressing me out."

He sighs. "Right, it's finals season. I forgot about that. We don't have to hang toda-"

"Let's binge watch (favorite show)." I smile slightly.

"Okay, I'm down for that. What snacks do you want?"

"Are you gonna pay for all of it? I'll feel bad."

"Don't worry about it, (Y/n)."

"Fine. I think you know my favorite snacks, though." I say.

"Oh, so the usuals? Okay, I'll be at your house in a few hours." He says.

"Okay. Bye, Laurance. I can't wait to see you." I blush.

"Me neither." And he hung up.

I looked back down at my study guide and rubbed my face with both of my hands. Maybe a night with Laurence was what I needed.

Laurance's POV

I was so excited to see (Y/n) today. I mean, yeah I pretty much see her every day but lately she's been spending alot of her time studying for finals so I only saw her during school hours.

I could tell she's been stressing herself out and working too hard. She has incredibly dark circles under her eyes and her face looks very pale. She's always tired, too. I feel like she hasn't been getting sleep and hasn't been eating enough either.

"Oh, this is alot of food. Movie date?" The cashier asks as she scans all of the snacks.

I grin and nod. "You're almost right. We're bingeing (favorite show)."

"That's awesome. You must really like her if you're willing to pay for all of this."

I shrug. "It's not much. But yeah, I really like her."

She smiled and clicked on some buttons on the cash register. "That'll be $17.68."

I handed her the cash and thanked her, then left the store and headed back to my place to get ready.

(Y/n)'s POV

After a little bit more studying, I put my stuff away and got up to get ready for when Laurance would get here. I decided on an oversized (f/c) sweatshirt and some black leggings. We were simply watching shows, so I wanted to be comfortable.

I was combing my hair when my dad came into my room. "Are you going somewhere?"

"No, Laurance is coming over. We're going to binge watch (favorite show)."

"Oh, Laurance is coming? That's perfect, finally you'll have some company that isn't me. You've been cooped up in your room by yourself for the past week." He says. He had a concerned expression on his face.
