She held her clipboard tightly in her hands as she read over the list, not to difficult of tasks for her to deal with. She had been warned of a murderer possibly being on board so Sean had decided to assign everybody a partner to be safe. Y/N hadn't been listening much, only struggling with her goggles that struggled to stay upon her head and kept falling down onto her face as she huffed in frustration.
"Y/N, you'll be with Corpse since you two are the only ones left," Y/N peaked her head over across the table seeing a man sitting across from her in a black outfit with ram horns on his helmet. Something about the man was pulling Y/N in but she couldn't be distracted, she had work to do.
She fixed her f/c suit and walked to electrical with Corpse following behind her where she had to do wires, one of the tasks she struggled with the most.
Corpse hadn't said anything as he followed behind the crewmate, Y/N had noticed he had been playing with his rings on his fingers.
Skipping into the electrical room, Y/N had flipped the small door open to the broken wires she had to reattach according to colour. Corpse was leaning against the wall checking his own notes of tasks, chuckling to himself at Y/N failure with the wires.
The wires kept sparking up in Y/N's face almost electrocuting her, Corpse eventually giving in and going to help her. Corpse was behind her as he whispered in her ear, "having trouble, baby?"
Y/N's face turned red as the hairs on the back of her neck rose up giving her chills at the low voice, "oh shut it!" She sneered but struggled to be mad at him when she looked at the red eyes that were watching her hands struggle with the wires, "its the stupid wires, they just won't connect!"
Corpse shakes his head and moved behind her, "maybe its not working because you aren't doing it right."
"Of course I am!" She resorts.
His hand went to the top of her head and turned it so she was looking directly up at him, "okay, one: Don't yell at me-"
"I'm not yelling at you-" Y/N is silenced as Corpse's hand covered her mouth. She glares up at Corpse as he looked down at her with a calm but stoic face.
"Again, don't yell at me," she tries to look away but his hand kept her head still, "two: don't ever cut me off. Three: calm down. Four: shut up and pay attention to what I'm gonna do. Understood, Y/N?" She nods as Corpse removes his hand. He turned her head back to the wires and took her hands that were struggling with the wires, "are you calm?" He asked with his lips slightly close to her ear. She blushed a bit and nodded slightly, the scent of his cologne lingered around her nose from how close he was to her which made her blush.
"Yeah."
"Stop lying, your hands are shaking and your breathing quickened."
"I congratulate your sharp senses Corpsey. But if you weren't talking in my ear like that, maybe I would be more calm." She stuttered with a slight blush, her goggles losing their balance on her head and falling down onto her nose clouding her vision slightly. He let out a chuckle that didn't match his deep voice at all, "just help me with the wires already."
Corpse nodded guiding her hands on what to do with the wires. Eventually they were fixed and Corpse let go of Y/N's hands, Y/N finally getting the chance to fix her goggles which continued to fall down onto her nose no matter what she tried.
"Let me see those," Corpse said with his hand out, Y/N listened placing the f/c goggles in his hands. Y/N watched him do something with the straps of the goggles, something she had tried before but that had just made them bigger. Eventually Corpse had finished and handed them to her.
Y/N had put them on and they were a perfect fit. She smiled thanking Corpse as she stared up at him, one of his black curls flopping down onto his face center of his forehead. Y/N giggled as he asked what she was laughing about.
Y/N got up on her tip toes pushing the curl back with his other curls to no avail. She reached into her pocket pulling out a f/c butterfly hair clip that she used to pin the curls with his other curls.
"I probably look so stupid," Corpse sighed leaving electrical with Y/N but she shook her head.
"I think it looks cute." She smiled following Corpse out of electrical and to their next task which was in admin but that's when the loud alarm was heard with the words 'EMERGENCY MEETING!' ringing throughout the ship.
