Chapter Text
(Y/N) POV
(Y/N):AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-
(Y/N) was being chased into a corner by over 50 Octo-troopers and Octo-copers. and by the looks of it, he has no way of getting out of this situation.
(Y/N): MARIEEEE HELPPPP!!!!
The Octarians were approaching him at a rapid pace. His headphones release static for a second then Marie's voice chimes in.
Marie: how did you even manage to get yourself into this situation?!
----------------------------------------------------------
(Y/N) had been spending the whole day completing the first three kettles in Tentakeel outpost, and he just finished the third one- with the help of Marie of course. Now just the boss kettle is left. (Y/N) lets out a sigh of relief as he sits on the couch in Tentakeel outpost, with an icepack to his head, and bandages all over him. looking up at the nighttime stars.
(Y/N): Thank you for saving me Marie, but did you really have to hit me?
Marie sighs
Marie: not only did you manage to get over 50 troops to notice and attack you, But you did it on your first day! You'll be lucky if you manage to survive one more kettle.
(Y/N) nervously chuckles and tries to change the subject
(Y/N): well anyways... I'm ready to keep going! so...
He stands up and begins heading towards the boss kettle, with it being the last thing he has to do in the Tentakeel outpost. But Marie stops him
Marie: No.
(Y/N): what do you mean no?
Marie: No. You are going to go home and sleep.
(Y/N): Why?? I have more than enough energy!
He falls to the ground
(Y/N): This proves nothing! Cursed comic relief
Marie: Get up and go. You need rest, this is more than enough proof as is.
(Y/N): Fine.. but only since I agree. Not because you told me to do it.
(Y/N) struggles to stand up, eventually doing it. then starts walking over to the grate. He says goodbye to Marie before hopping into the grate.
Marie POV
Marie sighs
Marie: (I hope I made the right call by choosing him. I guess ill go home and find out if i made the right choice tomorrow.)
She starts walking towards the Grate when it starts rumbling and agent Four pops out.
Marie: (Oh great...) Why are you back here?
(Y/N) awkwardly chuckles before speaking.
(Y/N): So... i may or may not have forgotten... that i don't have a place to stay...
Marie: Then get a hotel?
(Y/N): All the ones in Inkopolis require a turf ID. And i cant get a turf ID because I'm a guy..
Marie: Right..
(Y/N): So... I was wondering...
Marie: (he's not going to ask to stay with me right?)
(Y/N): could I stay at your house..? Please! I don't want to sleep out on the streets! Its cold, and i don't want to get caught!
Marie: No- (I cant just let him sleep out in the streets... But what if he tries something...)
She looks Four up and down
Marie: (Ill be fine.) Fine you can stay with me, But if you're staying under my roof, you're under my rules.
(Y/N) smiles and cheers
(Y/N): Yes! thank you!
Marie: (this feels like a mistake...) now come on, lets go..
She walks to the grate and jumps in.
------------------------------------------------------------
After some sneaking, and walking, Marie and Four reach where Marie lives.
(Y/N): So you were lying about being a pop star.
Marie: What no! Big fancy mansions just aren't for me, I enjoy the small things in life.
Marie and Four were standing Infront of an apartment building.
Marie: If you want to sleep in the streets tonight I'm more than happy to leave you here.
She starts walking towards the buildings doors.
Marie: Id recommend putting on your hood if your coming with me. Or don't you can get caught if you want.
(Y/N): Yeah, yeah i get it.
Four puts on his hood and follows Marie
They both get inside the building, and the lobby looks like normal apartment lobby does, a few couches, a reception desk, and a few elevators, Marie walks to an elevator presses the button and the doors open, she gets in the elevator and agent 4 runs over and gets in too. She presses floor 9 and the elevator starts going up.
(Y/N): so...
Marie: (This better not be something stupid)
(Y/N): You said you were a pop star... right?
Marie: (Where is this going..?) Yes, why do you ask?
(Y/N): Well.. I was wondering if i could listen to some of your music?
Marie: (Huh..) Sure i don't see why not. Why do you ask?
(Y/N): I just wanted to-
The elevator stops at floor 6 and 5 girls get on, forcing Marie to bump into Four, Four looks down to hide his face, and his eyes meet Marie's.
(Y/N): Sorry.. i cant let them see me..
He whispers to Marie, who is just staring at him
Marie: (wow... He's...)
Marie quickly turns her now blushing face away. They just stand there in silence. The elevator eventually stops again at floor 8. The doors open and the 3 girls walk out. Quickly after they walk out, Marie pushes Four away from her face still turned away and with a big blush on her face.
Marie: (Thank cod that's over...)
(Y/N): Sorry about getting so close, it was an invasion of personal space..
Marie: (No! he shouldn't be apologizing its not his fault!) I-its fine d-don't worry about it. Its not like you had much of a choice anyways..
The elevator stops at floor 9, and the two step out, Marie lets out a breath she didn't know she was holding, and her blush finally starts to fade.
Marie: O-Okay follow me.
Marie leads Four down a hall too her apartment, calming down more while she goes through her pockets and gets her key out. She puts the key in the lock, twisting it, then grabbing the door handle and opening the door.
Marie: Welcome to my apartment.
When the door open's Four is led directly into a Livingroom, just further from the Livingroom was a kitchen, and further than that a glass door that leads to a patio, just before the door on the left wall, there is a hallway that presumably leads to more rooms. The Livingroom had a couch against the right wall, a coffee table in the middle of the Livingroom, and a tv on a tv stand on the Far left. The kitchen had a stove, refrigerator, and sink on the right wall. Separating the Livingroom and kitchen is a bar-counter with black stools behind it. There is an island-counter in the middle of the kitchen that has 4 tall black chairs surrounding it. On the patio There was one small wooden chair, and a blanket. back inside the apartment, Hung up all around on the walls, there are various picture of Callie and Marie, along with images of other things like, Judd, and Lil-Judd, agent 3, and more.
(Y/N): You have a nice apartment!
Marie: Thank you. I have a guest room down that hallway. You can stay there for now.
Marie points at the hallway.
Maire: Its the first door on the right.
(Y/N): Okay, thank you
Four walks to the hallway, turns down it and disappears behind the corner. Marie on the other hand, walks to her couch and sits down, and lets out a sigh
Marie: (What has gotten into me?)
