Don't Hug Me I'm Scared (X Reader)

I hate that I love you (part 1)

A/n: The Joker story is out now you guys should check it out if you wanna.
this is a Manny X Reader that was requested.. by multiple people..

Enjoy!

"She's just like him, they look like they're both equally lonely." One girl said to her friend.

"Those poor losers.. I kinda feel a bit bad for them."

"We shouldn't, I'm just happy that we're not them honestly."

The two girls, standing down the hall watching (Y/n) ad Manny stuff things into their lockers with a sad glint in their eyes. Manny and (y/n) used to be closer than the two girls gossiping about them.

When Manny had first turned 14 he started feeling weird about his best friend and began to avoid her. (Y/n), alone and forgotten, felt the same way he had and was confused as to why they had stopped talking all together.

"ManMan: Hey (Y/n), I don't think that I should talk to you because Harry and Robin say girls are stupid and if I'm friends with one then I'm stupid too. I'm sorry."

She thought of the text every day for years.

When they finally got into their senior year of high school (Y/n) had finally forgotten all about her old best friend and moved on to bigger and better things. By that she hid all the things that he gave her in her closet and cried herself to sleep.

The girls watched as the two walked towards their classes.

(Y/n) sat at her desk in the back of the classroom. She watched as Harry and Robin tried to hit on every girl in the classroom. She rolled her eyes, a look of frustration on her face as Manny waved at her.

Manny frowned, sitting at his desk in the front.

(Y/n) sighed, she missed talking to Manny, and as much as she hated to admit it, her feelings for the blue haired teen remained.

 The teacher walked into the class, late again. Probably off with Mr. Time in the teachers lounge again.

*Reader's POV*

"Okay kids, I'm pairing you up with partners for a project. I didn't pick them, Mr. Fly did. So if you want to complain to anyone, take it up with him."

Art class was always your favorite, and Miss. Brooke was a good teacher. Although she wouldn't let anyone use the color green without having a nervous breakdown because it isn't 'creative'.

You sighed, resting your head on our chin and feeling your (h/c) locks brush against your cheek and arm. Unintentionally your eyes traveled to your one and only, the pairs being listed off one by one.

"Harry, you'll be with Robin because if I put you with a female you'll harass the hell out of the poor thing half to death."

You laughed this, Manny looking at you with a small smile on his face. A blush spread across your cheeks as you tried your hardest to look angry at him. Until you heard words that would be a fatal blow in a video game. "And Manny you'll be paired with (Y/n)"

Your face pale in shock, you could feel your skin becoming cold. Why?? Why did that stupid butterfly loving weirdo do this to you??? You slipped out of your own grip and ended up face planting on the desk groaning. The teacher and the rest of the class gave you fairly weird looks but you could care less at this point. "Out of every person in the class it had to be Manny.. WHY COULDN'T IT HAVE BEEN ONE OF THE PERVS??"

Miss. Brooke looked surprised, as a matter of fact, everyone did. Including the pervs. "I'm not one to complain but I truly don't think it's fair to partner me up with someone who's ignored me since I was 14 because 'girls are stupid'. I'd take my chances with Robin or Harry, at least between those two I may actually get attention."

You never really said much, and rarely ever complained. But this drew the line. You grabbed your things and stormed out of the school as the final bell rang. You were pissed and everyone knew it. You didn't stop by your locker because you had finished everything from all your other classes and since it was Friday you didn't really feel like doing your art project until Saturday. You slammed a sticky note with your new number and your address on his locker knowing he was right behind you and made your way out the school.

This was gonna be an intense Saturday.
