World War: The Rise of the Mobs (A Minecraft FanFic)

Bonus Chapter : Reunited

Magma’s P.O.V.

Crypre’s really back.

The whole headquarters are having a party about Crypre’s homecoming. It would be fine if there was no booze.

I went across the room to sit on one of those comfy sofas I like to slouch onto. The room was very lively and glamorous, the once plain tiles converted into a dance floor, step on it, it’ll light up. There was also a disco ball that suspended from the ceiling, illuminating the entire place.

It was cool – yet still made me uncomfortable.

All of them are partying and dancing out there while I’m here, slouching awkwardly while Andy (on my left side) is fiddling with his fingers, while Crypre’s (on my right side) is drinking some wine. I’m not worried, as long as he doesn’t drink much, he’ll be fine.

To break the silence, Crypre spoke up. “Hey.” He started curtly.

No one responded, so he continued. “How’s the party?”

“Just fine. Not too much enjoyment, not too much boredom.” Andy responded as he rested his head on his intertwined hands.

“Cool. So are you guys not gonna… dance?” He peered at me hopefully, while I sent him a look that says, “I-don’t-dance-you-know-that”.

“Nope. Enjoying myself here.” Andy then closed his eyes, drowning the sounds around him. Crypre took this as a chance to dance.

“Hey… Magma, c’mon, dance with me please?” He stood up and laid out a hand for me.

“Nah, you know me, I don’t dance well.”

At this point, Andy interrupted. “You’re not a good liar, I saw you in your bedroom, dancing to ‘Careless Whisper’, with you, humming it.” He said matter of factly.

I blushed. “No, I do not do such things.” I said, emphasizing “such”.

Crypre raised an eyebrow at this. He easily gets jealous. “I’m waiting, Magma.” He stared at me seriously, which made me squirm under that piercing gaze. Andy opened his eyes and looked at us, amused.

“My answer is final. My answer is—“ Before I could finish my sentence, he pulled me, spinning me around before I got caught in his arms, almost falling down. Though, he catched me.

He smirked. “Your answer is yes.” He whispered in this low, husky voice.

I blushed harder. “S-Stop that!” He chuckled as he positioned our bodies closely, dancing with the music. Not knowing how to, I just, rolled along with him, occasionally stepping on his feet. As seconds passed, dancing with him, I suddenly became flawless at dancing, the steps coming on to me.

He smiled at my improvement. “You’re a natural.”

“Whatever.” I rolled my eyes playfully at him, all the while grinning.

At the corner of my eyes, I saw Andy standing up and going over to Webby, who was the DJ of the night. I heard something like, “Leave this thing to Zoro.” And “Can you dance with me?”

My smile faded instantly, causing Crypre to look at me straight in the eye. “Is there a problem?” His eyes were filled with concern and curiosity.

I shook my head and managed to smile. “No, I’m all right.”

“That’s better.”

The song ended, and the final move was to spin so I did those. We laughed, looking at ourselves ridiculously for dancing with casual clothes. I’ve never felt this alive!
