A/N: I took out the whole truth or dare part because I wasn't really feeling it so I hope that's alright and that you enjoy it! Also, sorry it took so long to write this!
You were hanging out with the boys of CNCO during one of their days off. It was usual for you to all get together and watch movies, go party or even lay around on the sand at the beach all day. Lucky for you, tonight was a lowkey kind of night which meant a movie marathon, lots of junk food, and a bit of alcohol to tie it all together.
Two movies in and you were in desperate need of a few minutes away from those boys. From Erick and Chris fighting over snacks like a couple of kids to Joel and Zabdiel disagreeing on almost every movie, Richard was the only one you could stand at the moment.
You made your way to the kitchen to refill the bowls of popcorn and bring the empty drink cans to the recycling. What you didn't notice was Zabdiel getting up and following after you. The rest of the boys were distracted on their phones so they didn't notice the two of you getting up and leaving the room.
As you were waiting for the popcorn to finish popping, you felt someone stand beside you as their arm brushed yours. You looked over to see it was Zabdiel. He was staring at you with a look you had never seen before.
"Hey Zab, what's up?" you asked him as you subtly put some space in-between you two.
"Just came to check on you. The rest of them are just on their phones so I thought I would keep you company." he said.
"Well that's nice but the popcorn is almost done so you can head back in there if you want."
"That's alright. I think I'll stay here. I've been meaning to talk to you anyways. I have something I want to tell you."
"Of course. You know you can tell me anything."
"I don't really know how to say this but I think over the past few years I have started to like you as more than a friend. Before you say anything, please just let me explain. At first I saw you as just a friend but over the years I started to notice the little things like how you make me smile with a simple text or how you can brighten up my day just by talking to you."
Before you knew what was happening, Zabdiel leaned forward and kissed you. You were in a state of shock and din't know how to comprehend what had just happened but once his lips were on yours, you were broken out of your shock. You quickly pulled away and ran out of the kitchen and back into the living room grabbing your stuff and running out of the apartment.
Erick looked up from his phone the minute he heard you run into the room and ran after you once he noticed the tears streaming down your face. He called your name as he followed you through the apartment building down to your car. You felt him gently grab your hand and stop you before you could get into your car.
"Y/n, what happened? Why did you run out like that?" he asked you.
"I just need to get out and go home ok?" you said to him as you avoided eye contact.
"Please tell me what's wrong. We don't keep secrets from each other remember?" Erick said before gently turning you to face him.
"Fine but before I tell you what happened, I need to confess something to you. I've had a crush on you for a while now and I never said anything because I was scared you wouldn't feel the same. Back in the apartment when I went to go back more popcorn, Zabdiel was in there with me and he was talking to me and before I knew it he was kissing me."
"I ran out because I was embarrassed by it. I don't like him in that way and I don't know, I just panicked and had to get out of there."
"Y/n, I think he'll understand. I like you too but I think you need to go back and explain what's happening to him so that he isn't lost and confused. If you don't feel like talking to him tonight, we can just go to your place and I'll text them that you aren't feeling well so I left to take care of you."
"I just want to go back to my place right now." you said before getting into your car with Erick and driving home.
