Moonlight (c.m.)

ch. 15

(tw: later in this chapter there is a graphic violent scene, read at your own discretion)

You wake up to an empty space beside you. You sit up and look around, remembering that you were at Chris's. You yawn and sit up, scratching your head.

"Chris?" You call, thinking he might be in the bathroom. You don't get a response, so you get up and walk to the bathroom, adjusting your morning hair before walking down the hall. You stop behind the corner when you hear soft singing. You smile and listen, also hearing the clinking of dishes.

"In darkness, you're all around me. I know our future, I feel your body. What if I told you that I planned this? What if I want to lose control? What if I take the blame and become the drug and dissolve as you swallow?"

You peek your head around the corner and see his back facing you standing at the sink. He's only in a pair of sweatpants that sit low on his hips.

"Covered in your silhouette, elated for your bitter end. Don't hide the shame from our lips. Glowing in amber, burn in sin." He whisper-screams the end, and you finally decide to sneak up behind him. You snake your arms around his waist and rest your head on his bare back.

"You sound so lovely." You say. You feel his chest rumble as he chuckles. You see he is washing a few dishes that were left over from your dinner last night. He finishes what he's doing and turns around.

"Good morning baby." He kisses your forehead and moves so you're in the corner of the counters. Your heart still flutters every time he calls you baby. You hop up on the counter and he steps between your legs.

"The last time we were in this position it didn't exactly go well." You rest your hands on his shoulders. He pulls you close and nuzzles his face in your neck.

"Well that was before we were together. Also, you look really fucking cute in my shirts, but that doesn't mean you can keep them all." He peppers soft kisses across your neck.

"Aw come on, I need to expand my wardrobe." You pout and he shakes his head. You then hear your phone buzzing and pick it up to see Kylie calling you. You answer.

"Hello?"

"Hey (y/n), um, when are you gonna be back here at Dev's?" She sounds worried.

"Uh, I wasn't planning on coming back until later, why? Is everything okay?" You ask, worry and confusion spreading across your face. Chris raises his eyebrow.

"Um, not exactly. It's... a lot. Can you come back here and I'll tell you in person?" You can hear Devin shouting in the background, but can't make out what he's saying.

"Yeah, okay. I'll be there in 15." You anxiously reply, and she agrees and hangs up.

"What was that about?" Chris asks, noticing how anxious you're getting.

"I have no idea, she sounded upset and said it's a lot and she needs to tell me in person." You slide off the counter and quickly change into the outfit you wore yesterday, grabbing your things.

"Do you want me to come with you?" He asks, helping you grab your things. You shake your head.

"I think it's something personal, but I'll see you later?" You reach on your tiptoes to press a quick peck on his lips.

"Okay, text me when you get there, let me know what's going on." You nod as he hands you your jacket as you're rushing out the door.

You walk in the door, hearing Devin grumbling in the living room. You turn the corner and see a very angry Devin, and an equally angry and upset Kylie.
