Ranboo's POV:

"So where does this guy wanna meet?" I called from the closet.

"Uhh, he said the park, I believe." Tubbo shouted back from my desk that he was sitting at, spinning around in the rolling chair.

"Ok." I said. "No hoodies today, it's gonna be hot."

"Awh, man." Tubbo pouted. "I guess your shirts are good enough, then."

"Yep."

I tossed him over a T-shirt in my size and a pair of shorts that were too small for me.

"Thanks, big man." He said, getting up to the bathroom so he could change.

I hummed and picked me out some clothes as well.

I had put my shorts and was getting ready to pick up my shirt when Tubbo walked out of the bathroom.

He instantly froze when he saw me. His eyes grew wide as he stared at me, shirtless.

"Oh, f(bleep)k. I'm sorry." He covered his eyes and turned away. I couldn't help but laugh.

"Hahah, it's alright, Tubbo."

I quickly put on my shirt and told him he could turn around.

He slowly turned, looking down. He seemed embarrassed.

I walked up to him and patted him on the shoulder.

"Tubbo, it's ok." I said. "Now let's go." I motioned for him to walk out the door with me.

Tubbo didn't say anything, he just followed me outside and we both began walking down the sidewalk.

Not long after we began our small journey, Tubbo took my hand in his and held it as we walked. I couldn't help but blush.

After a few minutes of walking, we reached the park. I seen Lucus sitting on a bench close by a large tree. He was just looking at his phone.

"Hey, Lucus!" Tubbo shouted and started waving.

"Oh, hey, Tubbo." Lucus looked up and smiled.

I politely waved without saying anything. Lucus looked at me for a moment before returning a slight wave.

"So, what are we gonna do?" Tubbo asked, trying to begin a conversation. I knew him well, so I knew that he couldn't handle awkward silence for too long.

"I've got my wallet right here. I was thinking maybe we could go see a movie." Lucus suggested.

"Oh, uhh, are you sure?" Tubbo asked nervously.

"Positive." Lucus smiled at Tubbo, then looked over at me, glaring.

I was confused as to why this guy seemed to dislike me so much.

"Hey, I have my wallet as well." I said, pulling out my small creeper wallet. "I'll pay for myself."

Lucus nodded slowly.

"You know, I grabbed mine as well. How about we all just pay for ourselves?" Tubbo suggested.

"Oh, no, don't worry about it, Tubbo. I'll pay for you." Lucus smiled warmly.

I started to get a strange feeling in my stomach. There was absolutely no way that Lucus could like Tubbo already. They'd only just met and didn't even really know each other.

Tubbo looked down, seemingly uncomfortable and confused.

"My car's parked over there. Let's head out." Lucus smiled at Tubbo and started walking toward the road.

We reached a small black car. Lucus reached into his pocket and pulled out keys, making small clanking sounds.

He unlocked the car and opened up the passenger seat door.

"Ranboo, would you mind sitting in the back?" He asked, motioning for Tubbo to get in the front seat.

"No, that would be fine-"

"Actually, I would like to sit in the back with him if that's alright." Tubbo cut me off and grabbed my wrist, pulling it closer to him.

Lucus gave a dirty look, nearly slamming the passenger door.

"Ok, that's fine." He said, continuing to glare at me with his chin down.

I smiled and blushed, not that anyone could tell. My mask seemed to cover up everything. That's what I liked about it.

I let out a small chuckle and looked over at the small boy, gripping my wrist and staring off with his pleasing eyes.

Lucus opened the back door and walked around the vehicle to enter the drivers seat.

I sat by a window and Tubbo sat in the middle seat. That was a normal thing for him to do because he liked being closer to me whenever he had the chance. I found it really adorable.

Lucus drove off to the theater as Tubbo reached over for my hand. I hummed and lightly clutched his hand.

Once we arrived, Lucus got out and opened the door on the opposite side of where I was sitting.

"Here you go, Tubbo." He said, smiling from the door.

I raised an eyebrow and opened my door, standing up in the unbearable heat.

"Let's go in!" Tubbo said excitedly, grabbing my hand back and getting ready to drag me inside if I couldn't keep up with him.

"Hang on." Lucus groaned. "Tubbo, can you maybe wait inside? I need to talk to Ranboo." Lucus said, and I thought my heart stopped right then.

"Oh, uhh, yeah, I guess so.." Tubbo agreed nervously.

"It'll take a second, darling." He flirted. "Just go wait inside."

I was immediately infuriated. Lucus had just called soon-to-be boyfriend 'darling'.

I felt my face flaming.

"I- what?" Tubbo stepped back and furrowed his eyebrows.

"What? I said just go wait inside. We'll be right in." Lucus acted so casual, as if he didn't just call Tubbo a flirtatious name.

Tubbo shook his and and turned to the door, walking in it's direction.

Once Lucus could see that Tubbo had no way of hearing us, he spoke up.

"Listen here." He pointed a finger close by my face, turning angry. "I don't care how long you've known him. He be mine and you get in the way of that. Got it?" He clenched his teeth.

"What the h(bleep)l is your problem?! Tubbo is You don't even know him like I do!" I argued."You don't know how to treat him right. You don't know the things to say when he's having a bad day. You don't know the amount of attention he needs to feel loved. You don't know the places he wants to go when he's bored at home. do."

"I guess I'll figure it out along the way, then." He smirked. "Ranboo, you and I are rivals. I don't like you. We're Keep that in mind." He turned and shoulder checked me, walking toward the large theater.

I couldn't help but notice the lack of pain on my shoulder after he bumped it.

"Enemies, huh?" I laughed. "Guess you've brought this on yourself, then."
