We Found Love

ACT 3

ACT 3

The leader and dancer of K/DA were like these human versions of destructive tornadoes as they went around the house, taking this and taking that. The two of them seemed to be unorganized when it comes to preparing themselves for a red carpet appearance. Both of their bedrooms were open, allowing each other to go back and forth from their own room to the other's.

Evelynn, who was already dressed in her K/DA outfit minus the tails, leaned on her doorway, chuckling to herself as she watched Kai'Sa borrow Ahri's lipstick set, while Ahri borrowed Kai'Sa's collection of eye shadows.

Despite already having more than enough money to buy all the make-up they would ever need, the four girls have grown accustomed to sharing their cosmetics with one another, especially Ahri. The blonde artist was practically their personal make-up supplier. Sharing and doing make-up together was another form of bonding for them actually.

"Are you two almost done?" Evelynn asked with a hint of amusement, smiling when Kai'Sa let out a whine from Ahri's bedroom, while the owner of said bedroom poked her head out of the dancer's quarters.

"Almost." Ahri replied for her and Kai'Sa. "Why don't you check on Akali? We'll be leaving in two minutes."

Evelynn shook her head and snickered to herself when she heard Kai'Sa cuss about how she messed up her lipstick. They are expected to walk down the red carpet in exactly twelve o'clock in the afternoon. It was already eleven-thirty and they still haven't left the penthouse. The other two were already panicking since heavy traffic was already being expected along the way.

"Rogue, you awake?" Evelynn called out, knocking thrice on the closed door.

When no response was given, Evelynn's eyebrows furrowed. If she remembers correctly, she advised Akali to turn in early and avoid playing her video game console. It was nine o'clock in the evening when she said that. Did Akali disregard her words?

Evelynn admitted to herself that maybe they might have made a mistake here. Since they were too busy preparing themselves, they forgot about the baby of their group. Their beloved maknae. She's quite sure no one had checked on Akali until now.

Three more knocks later, Evelynn still didn't receive any answers from the occupant of the room. Fearing the worst scenario that popped inside her head, Evelynn grabbed the door handle and twisted it. The door clicked quietly before it was pushed open.

The diva entered the room, the door closing by itself behind her as she approached the form on the bed. Her eyes trailed to the flat-screen stuck on the wall in front of the bed, gaze skimming over the expired game invites on the notification panel on the TV. A fresh batch of game invites can be found appearing, but they were ignored by the owner of the gaming account.

Last thing Evelynn saw was the 'CHAT DISCONNECTED' notification before she retracted her attention from the television and directed them back to the snoozing rapper on the bed.

Everything below Akali's waist was tucked under the blanket, one hand still loosely grasping the gaming controller, the other awkwardly holding the wireless headset connected to the console. The snoozing freestyler's mouth was parted, drool dripping from the right corner of her lips.

Evelynn could only give herself a facepalm.

Obviously, Akali didn't heed her advice.

She stopped at the left side of the bed, placing a hand on the headboard before leaning over Akali's face. The slumbering female's name was just about to be called out, but Evelynn abruptly covered her nose the second Akali's morning breath seeped into her nostrils.
