It's Starting {Magi x Reader}

Night 6: The Night Before

     "WAH HA HA HA!!"  Alibaba roared with victorious laughter to his two companions with a bright smile on his face.  "Wow! The boss sure was surprised!"  He boasted, not aware of the other two lagging behind with, not even half, the enthusiasm as him.  He continued talking on like nothing was wrong.  "He looks after me so I can't hurt him.  Now, let's prepare for the dungeon!  We need food!  And a map!  And a new knife!  An adventure sure gets the heart racing!  Right, guys?"  He gushed with enthusiasm but once he didn't hear a response and turned around to see that they weren't fallowing him anymore he caught on...kind of.

     There stood Aladdin covered in his own gloom, keeping his head down and away from the others.  "..."

     Next to Aladdin was (Y/n)...how to describe (Y/n)?  How do you describe the face of a woman that someone else, she barely knows, calling her his wife then not explaining or apologizing...or acknowledging it?  Whatever that look is...that's the look of (Y/n). "..."

     Seeing the expressions the two had, Alibaba's body halted and his eyes widened with confusion.  Deciding to approach Aladdin first, too shy to go to (Y/n), he crouched down to his level to see what was up.  "What's the matter, Aladdin?"  He reached his hand out to the kid but Aladdin just turned his back to him.

     "HMPH!"

     The atmosphere turned kind of gloomy after that as Alibaba froze in place breaking out in a nervous sweat and totally confused.  "...?  What're you mad about?"

     "Nothing."  Aladdin denied.

Alibaba put a fist to his chin in though, "maybe (Y/n) knows..." He looked to her and asked her opinion. "Do you know why he's sulking? Do you guys not want to go to a dungeon anymore?" But no response came, she was just stuck there glaring at the void with some amount of pink on her cheeks.

Alibaba found this much more concerning than Aladdin's response and decided to go to her and give up on Aladdin for the moment. "Do you have a stomach ache?" He reached out and tapped her shoulder. It was almost like she was paralyzed. "W-What's wrong with her?!" He panicked, and even more once she started tipping over like a chopped tree. "H-Hey!" He caught her before she tilted too much.

Alibaba's firmer touch knocked some kind of response out of her, though. "M-married?" She suddenly broke out of her trance completely and flung herself out of his arms and pointed an accusing finger at him. "Y-You gotta lot of nerve saying we're married! What gives?!"

     Alibaba became red and looked more nervous than ever as he stammered out a quick response.  "I-I had to say s-something to my boss!  He would t-think something b-bad just seeing a woman in my house!"  His composure was basically shaking.

     "So lame." You looked at him with a dissatisfied pout. "...fine."  She huffed, walking up to him. "I don't have time to be upset at something this small, I really need to have a look around this town before we leave."  You two were shoulder-to-shoulder now as you earnestly warned him in his ear. "I forgive you BUT..."  You jerked your thumb towards Aladdin. "...please, fix whatever you did to him by the time I get back later tonight."

"W-Wait! 'Later tonight?' Where are you going?!" He bellowed with panic as he moved to catch up with you as you walked away. "I don't want to be stuck, in charge of this kid!" 

     "I just have something I need to do before we leave!"  You called over your shoulder with a goofy grin and continued on your way.
