@nctyourplaything || Continued bc Bryan asked
“ fuck no. i need you to stay right where you are. if you leave, who will make me food && build forts with me ? ” mandy stated with decisive finality. she refused to even entertain the idea of bryan leaving her anywhere. she wrapped her thin body around his surprisingly muscular frame. “ don’t listen to whatever assholes made you feel like you take up space. i’ll stab a shiv in the eye of the next person who says anything shitty. ”
Bryan had been second guessing himself lately, after losing the job he’d wanted, and everyone seeming to be pairing off all around him, he couldn’t help but feel like it’d be better if he just went somewhere else. He listened to Mandy’s words, about to protest that someone else would come along and be much better at making food and forts, but as he felt her arms around him, he couldn’t help but let out a shaky sigh and sag into her embrace. “No one said it,” he mumbled out, “Unless my own brain counts. And I’d really like to not get stabbed with a shiv in the eye, especially when I need that eye.” He nuzzled against her shoulder faintly, wrapping his arms around her in return.
