Just a Slice of Life (Actually Stephen x Reader!)

Angel beats

Although you were 20, you hadnt left your teenage habits behind. It was currently 3 AM, and you were huddled under your multiple blankets, watching anime on your laptop in the dark room with a can of coke beside you. Your eyes were glued to the screen; this anime is fucking awesome.
You paused and reached for your can of coke. Suddenly, you heard sounds coming from the kitchen. Again, being the horror loving ass hat you were, you grabbed the baseball bat that you kept under the bed, and silently made your way towards the kitchen, in hopes of meeting a demonic creature or some shitty burglar. It was pitch dark, but you could make out a figure. Your 3am logic told you one thing and one thing only. This was a ghost for sure. You walked towards it and raised the bat.
"Ok ghost! Go back from whence you came!"
"hEYhEyHeYYHEyHEy wait a second!" It was a loud whisper (you know what i mean? Idk how to explain it)
The ghost reached out and put on the switch. The lights came on.
"You can't murder someone you've just met! Oh wait but that's what psychopaths do. BUT still! You cant murder me yet!" It was Stephen.
You didn't know how to save yourself from the situation. Fuck. So embarrassing.
"Umm, in my defense, i thought you were a ghost."
"Oh god. What are you doing up anyway? It's so late." Stephen cautiously lowered the bat in your hands.
"I could ask the same to you"
Stephen smirked, "touché"
Goddamnit. Not now! The hoodie? The messy hair? The 'i just woke up voice'? The glasses? And now the smirk...I dont know how to handle you anymore.
"Well i was just watching some anime on my laptop." You said, matter-of-factly.
"In the dark im guessing?"
You guiltily looked away but you didnt say anything. Yeah. In the dark.
"You know youre gonna spoil your eyes one day, right?"
"Excuse me, but you're the one with the glasses."
Stephen found you rebuttals so entertaining and his smirk grew wider.
"What anime are you watching anyway, weeb?"
His use of the word 'weeb' was playful.
"Angel beats. It's really good so far."
"Fantastic. Let me join you!" Stephen suddenly became so puppy-like. Adorable.
"Wow. Who's the weeb now?" You smiled smugly as you gestured him to follow you up to your room. He quickly grabbed some of the leftover snacks from the recording and followed you. It felt like the tension between you two had suddenly... dissipated.
You didn't mind it, of course. Apart from your thirsty ass fantasies, you really wanted to be friends with Stephen. You wanted something genuine.
You opened the door and signaled Stephen to enter quietly. You slowly shut the door and when you turned around, Stephen had already made himself comfortable in your blankets. He looked exactly like a puppy, with blankets over his head and around his body; only his face was not covered and he looked so precious.
"Ahem. That's my seat"
"You snooze you lose. Anyway the screen's too small for us to sit far apart. Just get in here." He made a space in the blankets and patted the spot beside him. 
You were beginning to blush like crazy. You had never been on the same bed, sharing the same blankets, sitting so intimately with a hot stranger. You were glad it was dark, so he couldnt see how red you were. But i guess Stephen isnt a stranger anymore.
You reluctantly walked over to the bed and got in. Your shoulders were touching his. You could feel the warmth of his body. Fuck. It's only fitting that he smells so good.
After that, you began to feel weird flutterings in your stomach. You couldnt even concentrate on the anime anymore. All that you could think about was the person sitting next to you. Sometimes, he would let out soft laughs after funny anime scenes, but most of the times, he would just stay still, enjoying it.
What you didnt know was that Stephen wasnt paying much attention to the anime either and he kept glancing at you from time to time.
Even though he just met you, he felt that he could trust you. You made him feel a certain way. He didnt really know how to explain it.

After about an hour, Stephen decided that you need to sleep. You kept dozing off in the middle of episodes. So he closed your laptop and put it on the table near your bed, and he made sure to be with you until you slept.
"Tch. You won't sleep unless i wait here. you dont even realise what you need." He paused for a second and looked at your sleeping form.
"Hm. Idiot," he smiled and said softly.
"WhAT diD yOU sAy?! IdiOt?! yoU'RE the only dUmb aSS heRe!" You said VERY LOUDLY, because you were half asleep but your body jolted up on its on.
Stephen started frantically waving his hands to calm you down, " shh shh shh nonono i was talking about... er... myself! Now go back to sleep before hosuh comes here!"
You closed your eyes, your brows furrowed in you state of 'half awakeness', you put your head on the pillow and fell right back to sleep.
Stephen made sure not to say anything, but he thought to himself, "Jesus. Youre a pain in the ass arent you. I'm gonna fall and break a limb looking after you. But... dammit,"  he found himself automatically smiling as he looked at you, "I'm already falling"

A/n: oh well. How abt that. So apparently i'm not the only one reading my book lol. And that makes me so HaPpY. I hope you enjoy!
