Antisepticeye x Reader One-Shots (FLUFF ONLY)

An Unexpected Journey 2/2

You weren't shaken up, surprisingly. If anything, Anti was more distraught than you. For a good couple of minutes, Anti had a vice grip on your hand.

Not that you were complaining.

The rest of the mansion was  decorated in mostly black, with some red of green accents depending on the  room. The east wing was green, and Anti and you hung out in that wing for most of the day. You couldn't tell what time it was by looking outside; the sky stayed the same dismal grey. But your internal clock kept ticking and you had to go home eventually.

One of you made a joke about Dark, and after the laughter died down, Anti  spoke.

"Y/n, you are the only other person I've known to be able to have that little magic staring contest with Dark, and win."

You turn to him, a bit surprised. "What? Hold on, back up. Magic staring contest?"

He blinks, then runs his hand through his hair. "Right. I forget that you're new to the magic stuff. Remember the glaring match you had with the asshat when we came in?"

You nod.

He continues, "That whole thing was him trying to show how much power he had. Mostly,  that power comes from the intimidation factor he gets from his reputation." He chuckles. "And since you didn't have that barrier,  he didn't have nearly enough power to shake you." He finishes the explanation, flashing you a mischievous smile.

You nod again, this time soaking in the meaning of his words. A question bobs to the surface.

"Have you ever beat him?" You ask.

He nods. "Yeah. He has beat me before too, but we're on pretty equal footing." A comfortable silence descends upon you until Anti brightens with an idea. He looks up at you with a childish sparkle in his eyes. "Do you wanna see the pool?"

"Yes, I want to see the pool."

.........

You bubbled with excitement and had to resist jumping into the pool head  first. You didn't have any swim wear, so you settled for taking off your jacket and leaving the tank top. You also left your shoes and socks in a pile a good distance away from the pool's edge. Anti was already in the water, wearing a black t shirt and shorts. He lazily floated on his back.

"Come on in, cupcake. The water's great." He teased with a smirk.

You took this as a challenge, a personal quest to complete.

Your pupils dilated and your muscles filled with energy. You feel your toes shift against the rough tile when you force your legs into a sprint.

With every powerful, yet calculated, stride the water grew closer. The edge approached, and when it finally came, your last footfall was perfectly placed for you to propel yourself into the air.

With the skill of hundreds of repetitions, you tuck your legs into your chest mid-flight.

Gravity pulls your concentrated mass towards the water.

For a split second, before you hit the water, you meet Anti's eyes. They are wide, not with fear, but with something else that you can't place.

His lips part to say his final words.

"Oh fuuc-"

You hit the water, creating a big splash. The wave causes Anti to capsize, and you've already popped out of the water and wiped water out of your eyes before Anti resurfaces. He pops up, coughing a little bit and blowing water out of his nose. You are coughing for a different reason; you are laughing too hard to breathe.

"What the fuck, (Y/n)!" Anti exclaims, trying to sound peeved. You can tell he thought it was funny too, partly because of the smile he failed to keep down and partly because of his blush.

You have no snarky comment to shoot back (again, wheezing with laughter).

------------

After half an hour of enjoying the water, you decide it's time to go home.

You're wringing your hair out with a towel by the time Anti has changed into dry clothes. Your leggings and tank top are still a bit wet, but they're drying quickly. (("Maaaaagic"))

You slip your socks, shoes and jacket back on and address Anti.

"Okay. I'm ready to go home."

Wordlessly, Anti wraps an arm around your waist to pull you flush with his body. Wind starts whipping around you, but not even the flashes of light and the fading of the pool area can pull your eyes away from his.

He has such pretty eyes. You find yourself memorizing them, burning the image of his shocking green eyes into your memory.

But the moment has to end, and soon you are standing in your room staring into Anti's eyes, soon realizing that he is staring into yours.

Slowly, and a bit reluctantly, you step away from each other. The silence is quickly growing uncomfortable, so you break it.

"Thank you for showing me your home." You said. "I had a lot of fun."

He smiles back, "I'm glad you had fun." He glances at the clock. "You should head to bed, sweetcheeks. It's late, and humans need the rest."

Almost as an after thought, Anti steps forward to press a kiss to your forehead. "I'll see you tomorrow, darling." He said before disappearing.

You smile to yourself, standing there in the dim light in your room.

"See you tomorrow, Anti."

Finally got out this chapter! Sorry for the delay, I wasn't really feeling this chapter, so I kept putting it off. I hope you all are staying healthy!
