Movie Misunderstanding

Many of the hermits were very open about their relationships. Mainly Stress and Iskall. The two could be inseparable at times, and many thought they were adorable together. The two tended to go on dates regularly, many could see them walking through the shopping district together, or just relaxing at another's base.

It was a crisp Summer evening, the air was clean and fresh, the sun was setting over the horizon, a light breeze ran throughout the jungle, as Stress and Iskall began setting up for a large gathering. The two decided to make a 'couples night', where all the couples on the hermitcraft server could come together and watch a movie. After sending a group text to all of the hermits, many responses flooded in the chat, some rather excited for the nights events.

When the moon revealed itself to the hermits, many made their way to Iskall's tree, pillows and blankets stuffed into their bags. Iskall finished setting up the white screen against his tree, and Stress finished preparing snacks for all of the hermits. The hermit couples threw their blankets and pillows down, finding a good place to relax before the movie started.

Ren wrapped Doc in a fuzzy blanket, before slowly inching his way towards the creeper. Doc took notice of Ren, as he grabbed the hybrid and pulled him in close. The two cuddled with one another, Doc barely caring for the small giggles coming from Iskall and Stress. Keralis and Bdubs were the next to arrive, a shock to most hermits, no one actually knew about their relationship.

The two sat as far from Doc as they could, and although they made up with the creeper, they tended to get evil glares from him at times. Keralis pulled out a large, oversized hoodie from his bag, pulling it over his head and relaxing in the comforts of the white hood. It was Bdubs's hood, the builder slightly upset about his boyfriend stealing his favorite hoodie. Bdubs didn't say anything though, Keralis looked to adorable in the oversized sweatshirt.

Impulse, Tango, and Zedaph all sat right In front of the screen, the three sharing one massive blanket. Tango opened his backpack and showed off his selection of snacks that he brought, all sorts of sugary crap that can give you a migraine in the morning. Of course, the three didn't care, each grabbing a can of soda and seeing who can drink it the fastest.

Iskall was finishing setting up the projector, the movie almost ready to go. They felt a light tap on their shoulder, the Swede turning around, his eyes going wide in surprise. Mumbo was nervously shuffling his feet, the Redstoner's hair messy and unbrushed. His suit coat was stained with redstone and all sorts of materials, and it was clear that he hadn't slept in a while.

"Mumbo? What are you doing here?"
"Well I was trying to finish my mega base, but I ran out of stone bricks and-"

"Mumbo?!"

Stress ran over, a wide smile on her face as she examined the mustached hermit, her smile continuing to grow.

"You have a date?"
"W-what?! N-no I just-"
"Oh come on Mumbo, you look horrible! Have you slept lately? Let me get you cleaned up!"

Before Mumbo could argue, Stress dragged Mumbo into Iskall's tree, leaving the Swede standing in confusion and shock. Around 10 minutes later, Mumbo walked out of the tree looking nicer than he normally does. His suit coat wasn't buttoned, but it looked nice, his white shirt underneath clean and nice. His tie was adjusted properly, and Mumbo's hair and Mustache had been fixed up. But the heavy bags under his eyes still remained, Stress couldn't seem to fix that.

"Well? Who's your date?"
"I-I don't think you understand, I-"

"Come on Stress, leave Mumbo alone and help me finish setting up the movie."

Mumbo mentally panicked, watching as Stress and Iskall began to choose which movie they were going to watch. Mumbo didn't have a date! He just wanted stone bricks! He didn't know what to do, the mustached hermit freaking out as he grabbed his phone, opening his contacts and scrolling through who could be a believable date.

Mumbo> GRIAN
Grian> ?
Mumbo> I NEED HELP
Mumbo> COME ISKALL TREE
Mumbo> DRESS NICE
Mumbo> HURRY

Mumbo spotted Grian as he began to land, the small hermit flying down right next to Mumbo and landing in a large pile of blankets of pillows. He was wearing a long red dress, rather simple, but it complemented his eyes. Grian's hair was brushed, and the small hermit seemed more full of energy and happier than normal.

"What's up Mumbo?"
"W-well...I came by to ask for bricks, and now everyone thinks I'm here because I have a date..c-can you play along, just for a bit..?"

"Fine, but you owe me, got it?"

Mumbo slowly nodded, before wrapping his arms around Grian, pulling him in close for a hug. It felt like all eyes were on the two, but Mumbo didn't seem to mind. Grian grabbed a blanket, wrapping it around him and Mumbo, before leaning his head against Mumbo's arm, staring at the screen and watching along with the romance movie. Mumbo couldn't seem to pay attention to the movie, he was to busy trying to remember how to breathe. It felt like his stomach was filled with butterflies, as his face began to heat up.

Grian took Mumbo's hand, slightly squeezing it. Mumbo suddenly panicked, his hand starting to sweat a bit. Grian either didn't care, or he was too busy watching the movie to notice. Mumbo wanted this movie to last forever.

Mumbo was walking through the Jungle, Grian holding onto the mustached hermit's arm. Mumbo could barely breathe, he didn't know he had feelings for Grian until tonight. It felt like something in him was fixed, Mumbo finally understood why he always wanted to be with the small gremlin.

The Redstoner and builder quietly spoke to one another, talking about the mayoral race, and how the two betrayed one another. Mumbo couldn't help but laugh at Grian's storytelling, he seemed to over exaggerate and use hand gestures, it made Mumbo's heart flutter.

"Remember Mumbo, you owe me."
"I know.. How can I repay you?"

Grian stopped in his tracks, looking up at the Redstoner. Grian brushed a bit of Mumbo's hair out of his face, moving it behind his ear. Grian didn't move, running his hand through the mustached hermit's hair. Grian stood on his toes, kissing Mumbo directly on the lips. The butterflies in Mumbo's chest seemed to explode, transforming into a firework show. Mumbo was absolutely speechless.

Grian pulled away with a sly smile and a wink, watching as Mumbo's confused expression changed to flustered, his face heating up and turning pink.

"Call me on Friday, let's go on a date. That's what you can do to repay me."

Mumbo just slowly nodded, his mouth slightly open in surprise. Grian planted yet another kiss on Mumbo's lips before he ran off towards his hobbit hole, leaving Mumbo alone with his thoughts. He was practically shaking as the Redstoner felt his lips, remembering Grian's soft embrace that he already missed.

Mumbo's Heart was aflutter, the Redstoner didn't know what to say.

He was already looking forward to Friday
