[Weak Hero X Reader] Romance 101 [OLD VERSION]

Partying with the Eungang

Donald sat in his office in Yeouinaru and munched on a small loaf of bread. He thought back to his own childhood. He had to throw a brick through a bakery window in order to steal some bread or else he'd starve. He then thought back to what he knew about [Your Name].

[Your Name] was an orphan. Her parents had died when she was four years old and had to survive on her own. She now has two older brother but since she's still living alone, they must be sworn siblings instead of official adoption. Judging by her and Alistair's English, she was from the United States. Whatever [Your Name]'s past was, it was significant since she doesn't want anyone to know about it.

He wanted to know more about [Your Name]. But he didn't want just a file listing all of her information. No, he wanted to truly know her. He wanted to know her likes and dislikes, her favorite things, her interests, her hobbies...He wanted to know everything about her.

He would deny that it's love. Him, Donald Na, in love? No, he didn't rely on his emotions to make choices. He relied on logic, statistics, and facts. Emotions only clouded judgement and caused recklessness. If anything, he would claim that he only wanted to know about [Your Name] because she was interesting, like how a person would look to a puppy or a kitten.

Your POV

You arrived at Ben's house two hours later. With the distance between your apartment and Ben's house, it should've taken no more than an hour, maybe an hour and a half at most. But...well in your defense, the streets were confusing, okay! Yeah, you were given directions and had a map on your phone, but you still weren't as familiar with the place as the locals!

When you got to Ben's house, you realized that it was for a party. They had ordered several boxes of pizza and Teddy had gone out to buy some drinks. You noticed the single plastic bag filled with Coke and the other bag filled with a variety of drinks. Apparently Teddy had first came back with only Coke which annoyed the others so he had to go out and buy other drinks. He had bought some lemonade, juices, and sodas.

You were a bit disappointed that there was no [Favorite Drink] but didn't let it show. You instead grabbed a bottle of lemonade and took a sip. It tasted a bit strange and not like the other lemonades you've had before, but then again you didn't drink much lemonade. Also, there were a variety of brands. This must've been a brand that was only found in Korea or something and not available in the US.

The party was...enjoyable. You and the gang chatted, joked around, watched TV, ate food, and played games. Although you weren't a very social person, it was fun. You actually smiled and laughed during the party. As time went on...your vision started to blur. You thought that you were just dehydrated or something and proceeded to drink more lemonade. You became louder and more talkative.

"You know, I don't deserve friends or even my brothers," You were slightly slurring. "I'm...I'm no good..." You shook your head. "I'm getting tired. Party was fun but it's time for me to leave,"

"Are you sure you're alright?" Gerard asked.

'Why is there a talking tree in Ben's house?' "I'm fine," You staggered outside and took out your phone. 'Maybe I should call Jake if he could pick me up? I'm not feeling too well,' You downed your bottle. It was your second bottle as you had already finished your first during the party. You went to your contacts and intended to click Otaku Boi but accidentally hit Cheesy Vampire.

"Hello?"

"Hey bro! I need ja ta pick me up!" You slurred. "I feel kinda sick, ya know! Ya said yer ma bro, right? So can ya pick meh up plz?"

"Wifey, are you drunk?"

"Drunk?" You burst out into loud laughter. "Me? I don't like drinking! All I drank was lemonade!"

"Was it hard lemonade?"

"Hard? No, it's a liquid! Liquids aren't hard! It goes all swishy-swishy!"

"Where are you? I'll pick you up,"

Third Person POV

Donald had been reviewing some papers when his phone had started ringing. He answered it. "Hello?"

"Hey bro! I need ja ta pick me up! I feel kinda sick, ya know! Ya said yer ma bro, right? So can ya pick meh up plz?"

Donald frowned. 'That sounds like Wifey, but she's slurring,' "Wifey, are you drunk?"

"Drunk? Me? I don't like drinking! All I drank was lemonade!"

'Lemonade won't make you sound like that. Even exhaustion won't make you sound like that,' "Was it hard lemonade?"

"Hard? No, it's a liquid! Liquids aren't hard! It goes all swishy-swishy!"

'Yeah, she's drunk. It was definitely hard lemonade,' "Where are you? I'll pick you up," 'It'd be a shame if something happened to her on her way home,' 

After a bit of [Your Name]'s slurring, Donald was able to pinpoint her location. He ordered her to stay there so that he could pick her up. 'How did Wifey end up drunk? She doesn't like drinking so why would she drink hard lemonade? Did she mistake it for normal lemonade?'

"Will [Your Name] be alright?" Ben asked. "She was acting odd. I mean, yeah this party was meant to help her become more comfortable and a bit more outgoing with us but...her behavior was way too different,"

Gray picked up the last lemonade bottle. "This has alcohol in it,"

"It's lemonade," Teddy said. "How can there be alcohol in it?"

"It's hard lemonade," Gray corrected. "As in, [Your Name] is drunk and we let her leave,"

Everyone scuttled to take out their phone to contact [Your Name]. Alex was the first one and dialed [Your Name]'s number. "[Your Name] where are you!?"

"I was gonna call my bro-bros to pick me up, but I accidentally clicked Cheesy Vampire's contact instead,"

She was definitely drunk.

"Cheesy Vampire?" Alex questioned. "[Your Name], please tell me you didn't get into a stranger's car!"

"Idiot, of course I didn't go in a stranger's car! I know Cheesy Vampire! He goes to...uh...Yo El High School!"

"So your friend is going to bring you home safely?" 

"Yesh! Bye!"

Alex stared at the phone after [Your Name] had abruptly hung up. "She said that her friend...Cheesy Vampire...picked her up,"

"Cheesy Vampire?" Ben questioned. 

"She said he goes to Yeo-Il High School," 

"Hey," Ben said. "You don't think by vampire she means Donald Na, right? I mean, he fits the criteria of vampire with his pale skin and red eyes,"

"[Your Name] just moved here recently," Eugene added. "There's no way she could have befriended him. There's no reason why Donald Na would befriend her,"

"And nobody would dare to call Donald Na cheesy, much less Cheesy Vampire,"

Oh, how wrong they were.

I never tried hard lemonade or any alcohol for that matter. My depiction of drunkenness is only from what I've seen on TV and in manga, anime, and other fanfiction.
