‘ ive always been a lady’s man ‘
Seven and Noli were always togheter, they were more than just roommates, they were each others best friends, Noli is the only person Seven could count on no matter what happened. And no matter what, Noli could always tell Seven everything, the trust they had on each other was immense, and they knew everything about each other.
Well, almost everything.
Seven was lying down on his bunk bed, laptop above his stomach and at least three c00lgui tabs open. The room was a mess, the floor barely visible and the smell was.. actually extremely comforting for those who lived there. Noli pushed open the door, singing Seven’s name while throwing his bag somewhere in the mess. “OO-H S-S-ssseve-e-een!!” His comedy mask grinning mirroring the other half of his face. “g-guess w-w-what??” Seven sighs, closing the c00lgui tabs and his laptop to look at his roommate, taking note on how exited the other looked, it wasnt a good thing. “what is it this time..?” Noli gives him a glitched giggle, taking two pieces of paper out of his pocket, shoving them on his roommate’s face. “w-we ha-ve a p-p-party to go to-o-day!!” he shakes the invites right in front of the demon’s nose, making him give Noli a small kick. “stop that! who even invited you??” he takes one of the invites from the others hand, trying to reads the words, fixing his pink glasses. “she invited you?? damn Noli, youre a ladies man!” Noli laughs while Seven sits up, giving him a bump on the shoulder. “i gue-ess! S-so, youre co-o-ming with me, r-rright? I even m-made su-ure to get a-another invite fo-o-or you!”
Seven groans. God he really hates parties, he prefers to be alone in his room (alone with Noli, of course, hes never really alone) rather than going out and interact with drunk teenagers in a party, what would he even do there? He knew Noli probably wanted to get some girls or whatever, nothing that he really cared about, and he didnt want to be there just watching his best friend kiss random girls while he sits in a corner drinking alone. “I dont know man.. I have an essay to do and-” “oh c-come on s-s-sev, you wont eve-en do it, i k-know you. It w-w-will be fun! I p-promisse y-ooouu..” He pokes Seven’s side, trying to pull him out of the bed. “p-please? for me?” His comedy mask smiles again, leaning down to take a better look at Sevens face. Seven gulps, Noli knew he couldnt say no to the other, and with a long sigh Seven finally agrees, and to be honest? Seeing Noli jumping in joy across the room talking about what clothes he’d wear was worth it. Seven smiled to himself while admiring his best friend, he loved to make Noli smile, the feeling of knowing that *he* made the other smile was always worth it.
‘ I don't know why I even went, It's really not my bag ‘
Maybe it will be funny, Seven thinks to himself while they walk to the party, he needs a break, right? And its free alcohol, who doesnt like free alcohol? Ugh, his feet already hurt. “y-you should have choos-se something n-i-i-icer to wear, d-dude” Noli points out breaking the silence in between them, making Seven look down to his shirt. “whats wrong with it?” He was using his usual black t-shirt with a cat picture his cousin bought him, he even changed his sweatpants to a skinny jeans and a cool belt! “l-looks t-terrible” He laughs, bumping his shoulder on Sevens. “I mean, youre not looking that good either.” Lie. Noli always looked good on his eyes, and today he was wearing a sleeveless hoodie, half black half purple, giving Seven the perfect oportunity to stare at his arms. Not that Noli was buffed, hes avarage, but he looks good. “s-stop that! I lo-o-ok great!!” He poses, pointing at himself, making Seven laugh.
They both arrive at the house, already seeing people outside throwing up, making out and drinking. Great, exactly what Seven imagined. They walk towards the front door, seeing the girll who invited Noli. She sprints to hug him, not even caring about Seven being there. This makes the hacker extremely upset, he doesnt like when people get all touchy and stuff with Noli, its so weird seeing his best friend being cuddly with someone! Thought, he could not deny sometimes he wishes Noli was touchy like this with him. He stares at the way the girl holds both his hands, talking exitedly about some plan or something like that, Seven wasnt really paying attention. “gonna go grab drinks” he says to Noli, not even waiting for the masked guy to answer. He ignores the weird look the girl gives him, ugh he should have stayed home.
Walking inside the house was hellish, there was people everywhere, the music was loud and people were screaming to actually talk to one another, and that was pissing seven off. Ok, finally the kitchen, he grabs two beers, one for himself and the other one for Noli, now he just needs to find Noli again. Searching for Noli was going to be hard, he should have brought his c00lgui.
After some minutes of walking inside the house, he gives up. Noli is probably with that gitl, and Seven really does not want to see. He sits down on a couch near the stairs, popping open his beer and taking a big sip, watching what the people around him were doing. There was a couple making out right on the stairs, some guy was shotgunning a beer with his friends, and there was the people dancing on the living room. Yeah, its exactly how he though it would be. Taking another sip, he realizes his beer is already empty, well, what a shame. Great thing is that he has another one.
‘ There is no hope of love for me, from here on I'll go stag ‘
After some beers and suspicious drinks people were giving him, he finally felt tipsy enough to talk to people around him, having two girls on each side of him, some other guys around the sofa making dumb jokes with him, just having fun. One of the girls pulls up her phone, grinning past Seven to the other girl on his side. Weird, nah, probably nothing, drunk people laugh at anything.
Thats when he sees, making his laughter die on the back of troath, Noli. But he wasnt wearing the clothes he arrived with, no, he had a sparkling red dress on, long purple gloves with a equaly purple makeup who matched the gloved, and big red heels. Seven was absolutely dumbfolded, his mouth open in shock while Noli walked towards him giggling with the girl who invited him and other guys from their classes. What the fuck is happening- he doesnt even have time to process his surroundings, Noli leaning down and pinning his elbows on the couch. The people around him didnt seem to notice what was happening due to everyone being so out of it, but for Seven, it felt as if he hadn't even drunk anything. He stared at Noli, the way his makeup was perfect with his skin tone, how much of his chest was exposed with the dress, and how close he was getting from seven at this point. Seven’s brain was blue screen-ing, he pushed Noli away from him and ran away, sitting down at the sidewalk, trying his hardest to control the way he was breathing.
What the fuck was that??
‘ so stick him in a dress and he's the only boy I'd shag ‘
Seven was shaking, his face was a deep red, he had no idea what the fuck just happened there, he couldnt even think properly! He felt a cold hand on his shoulder, making him jump. Fuck- it was Noli- oh god he really looks beautiful-
Laughing, Noli sat down with a cup of something in his hands, trying not to ruin his makeup with tears. “w-what dude? d-d-do you n-not like it?” He grins, tilting his head to the side and crossing his legs. Fuck, those legs- Seven was so fucked- “I- what the fuck is that??” Seven asked, his voice coming out shakier than expected, trying to lean as far away as possible from Noli, hoping he wouldnt notice the blush creeping on his cheeks. Of course Noli noticed, he would always notice everything about Seven. “Y-youre b-b-blushing, sev” giggles, taking a long sip of his drink “do y-y-y-you like i-i-t?” the hacker gulps, nodding slowly with his head, the alcohol in his system not letting him lie or brush it off. “… yeah”
Noli smiles again, taking his comedy mask off his face and leaning closer to the brunette. Their breathes were mingling, smelling like cheap alcohol and strawberry lipstick. Seven was so taken aback with the closiness that he just froze in place, heart beating extremely fast inside his chest, wanting to break his bones just to meet Noli’s one. He gulped, leading his shaky hand to the side of nolis face, trying not to ruin the perfect makeup while thinking this is a mistake, but with how cloudy his mind was, he pressed their lips togheter. Seven couldnt believe he was doing this, fuck, thats his best friend dude! But when Noli started kissing him back, it just felt right, and finally something clicked inside Seven’s head, he didnt just like Noli as his best friend or roommate, he *loved* Noli. He could feel how shaky the other was, it looked like Noli was also nervous with all of this. Parting their lips with heavy breathing, Seven just looked at Noli, appreciating every single detail in his face, the way his eyes were shining with so much happiness. “you look… gorgeous.”
Noli blushed hard with this, giggling with a glitchy voice and looking away. “t-t-th4nk y00-o0u..” Cute, Seven thought. “do you.. wanna go home?” he proposes, and Noli agrees, already standing up and taking off those stupid heels.
They would have to talk a lot about today, but that can wait.
‘ I'll never see that girl again, he did it as a gag, I'll pine away forevermore for Noli in drag ‘
