"Settle Down!" ~ (Michael/Tall goth x Reader)

Chapter 6

when the girl made herself comfortable on the seat, having her backpack slacked beside her. Michael tensed up, frozen in the moment that was solidifying and didn't know exactly what to do next

the tall goth peered over the bus seat towards where his friends are sitting, watching the well known vamposer being booted off the bus seat in protest of pete not wanting to share, Michael snickered

she sneaks a glance over to the curly haired goth, for a brief moment, seeing his sudden shift of comfort

'it's like trying not to spook a rabbit' she thought while she slowly opens her backpack pocket reaching for her earbuds

when she grabbed the earbuds, it was found in a tangle knotted mess, she made a face with a scrunched nose "ugh" mutters the girl.

 in just that moment, the bus starts moving with a mighty sway

the impact, pushing Michael from the seat, his eyes widened and swung himself back down to the seat with a barely audible 'oof' 

 still embarrassed for sitting with the girl, he kept himself quiet. 

after settling down with the fact that he's stuck there, He took a small glance towards (Y/N)'s way, watching her still untangling the bundle formed earbuds. his tensed shoulders lowered , he finally calms down

her hands slowly  detangle around the loops that were formed 

"intricately" he said out of thought. 

Pretending not to hear Michael, she continued untangling trying so hard to not show a blush at least.

finally finished, she pulls out her iPod she left in her backpack from the night before and plugs  in the earbuds. 

she then unlocks her screen and starts scrolling through her music library

Michael paused and spaced out for a moment. he face palmed.

he forgot his phone. his needed essential to block out the crowded noise of the bus.

he folds up his lanky legs against the other seat for comfort and huffs at the window, staring at the dirty layered outside of the glass out of pure boredom, seeing what he could make out of it

noticing the look of annoyance just by seeing the way he's acting,  (Y/N) had an idea, she pulls out one side of her earbud

setting the plan in motion she taps Michael's shoulder

he tensed up from the tap, slowly and hesitantly he turned his head "What?"

she lifts her hand up showing the earbud and nudges it to him

"no!"

she made a face, and pulled away the earbud "are you sure-" a random scream broke out 

Michael shuts his eyes to the high note from within the bus

"okay pass it"

the time went by quicker  with listening to the (h/c) girl's playlist, the goth was surprised with her music and stayed quiet, trying to remember the lyrics for future listening

time went on and the bus  eventually made it to the last turnoff towards the museum
