"(Y/n)..." Five whispers as he knocks on their bedroom door softly, peeking in and walking over to see her still asleep despite the sun being up. He creeps over to the blinds to close them so she could sleep properly, all her shifts ending so late at night that her sleep schedule had been ruined. Luckily for him, it was the case for his job, getting early morning shifts before the sun rises and coming home early. He was one of those people who didn't need a lot of sleep anyway to function-besides him drinking coffee everyday-so he could prepare stuff for his roommate when she wakes up. She had been working nonstop lately, being together in this apartment almost 2 months and he wondered how she hasn't gone insane from the long hours yet.

The brunette kneels down in front of his roommate, unsure if he should wake her up as she slept soundly and hugged her pillow. He ruffles his hair and stands up, leaving her to sleep and heads back out to the living room where he greets the other roommates.

Five checked (y/n)'s schedule and saw that she had the next few days off and sighed in relief. Their friend group-well mostly her friend group she had introduced him to-decided to go to the community social event tonight and hang out in one of their apartments for a horror movie night. He had gotten along with his roommate's friends really well the last few weeks, the six of them hanging out at the parks or at the village together.

The brunette looks up when he hears the bedroom door unlock and chuckles softly seeing his sleepy roommate walk out. She looks around and goes back to the bathroom and he makes some breakfast for her knowing that she doesn't eat a lot the moment she wakes up.

"You finally have a day off after working your ass off for overtime." He muses.

"Need to earn back the almost 4 grand I paid for this fucking program." She hisses in reply and he holds back his laughter knowing his roommate didn't like talking in the morning. She was already so grumpy.

"You coming tonight? The others want to go drink after getting the pizza at the common grounds and then maybe come back for a movie marathon."

"I don't know..."

"(Y/n) come on. You need a break."

"I know, I know." She sighs in defeat, raising her hands. "God, a drink would be good. I need to go to a club."

"We can see what the others say, maybe they know some places." Five says as he texts the group chat.

"Sounds good. Anything we need to do today?"

"No. Just relax today."

"God I wish. I have training to complete online for my work back home."

"Jesus fucking Christ you don't stop (y/n)." The brunette chuckles softly as his roommate shrugs.

"At least I can get this over and done with." (Y/n) moves to sit on the couch after she washes her plates after eating, grabbing her laptop and settling down on the corner to do her work. She looked over at her roommate who sat down next to her on the other side of the couch, flushing at how he sat with his leg crossed over the other while reading his newspaper. He had his reading glasses on and had the news on the TV, seeing how handsome he was in his sweats and a simple white shirt with his hair flopping over freely.

She shakes her head and continues working, not realising that Five was glancing at her this time. He was amused at how she was curled up in a ball, wearing a lovely purple sweater with tights as she ran her fingers through her hair that was free. She wore these cute fluffy white socks, her glasses pushed up on her nose while the sun reflected off her multiple earrings. He clears his throat softly and quickly looks away, trying to read the words on the page.

"Girl I haven't seen you in so long!" (Y/n)'s friends exclaimed, the girls hugging while the others said hello to each other and sat down at the round table outside on the lawn of the village.

"I've been busy with work." (Y/n) sighs out as she sits down, stretching out an arm to rest on the back of the empty chair next to her.

"Works been slamming her like crazy!" Her other roommate who was also another friend explains.

"Where's Five?"

"He went to get pizza-there he is." (Y/n) nods over to her roommate as he brings over a box of large pizza and soft drinks, the friends celebrating that they got the free food from the event.

"There you go, you animals." The brunette jokes, setting everything down as he sits down on the last empty chair next to his roommate, flushing for a bit when he rests against her hand that was on the back of his chair. He looks over at her as she chats with her friends, wearing black denim shorts with her Converse high tops, a black tank top and a purple Hawaiian shirt on top.

She looks really nice.

"(Y/n) and I got the drinks back at our place if you want to come over for the marathon." The girl looked over at Five when he said that, unable to keep her eyes off his jeans and the silk shirt that had the top few buttons undone. His hair was wild but looked so soft, smiling as he talked to his friend and she flushes.

"Yeah let's go. I'm down for a cold beer."

The entire group gets up and heads back to the apartments, sighing in relief from the cold air of the living room before jumping onto the couch and putting in the first movie. The friends looked over at Five and (y/n), noticing how they were joking and laughing together and they all looked at each other.

"They've been getting close."

"Really close actually."

"You don't think..."

"Maybe they like each other?"

The friends were whispering to each other, huddling close together to only leave space for Five and (y/n) to sit together. They grin as the two walk back, tossing each of them their drink. Five sat down but (y/n) hesitated realising she would be sitting down next to him but yelps when she gets pulled down anyway by her other friend.

"Why so red?" Her friend muses and she raises a brow at her.

"I'm not?" She shakes off the giggles of her friends and relaxes against her roommate who lets her settle in closer as she tucks her feet up beneath her.

The night was filled with drinks and scary movies, jump scares, laughter and just absolute fun but the group of friends were snickering to each other as they noticed Five and (y/n) talking to each other only. The two were huddled close from the jump scares, whispering to each other about the movie while getting a little touchy after a couple of drinks.

Five chuckles softly at whatever his roommate was complaining about-maybe about the character on screen being dumb-as he pulls her closer noticing she was shivering from how cold the apartment was. She didn't complain but he rubbed her knees that were perched up on his lap so she was resting on his chest a bit, laying her head on his shoulder and he leaned his cheek against the top of her head. He was watching the movie, he swears he is, but he couldn't help but glance down every now and then at the girl in his arms as she hugged a pillow against her chest, covering her face to avoid being scared. His thumb brushed over her skin softly, taking a sip of his whiskey.

She's so soft...

He didn't know if it was the alcohol or her, but he felt a warmth in his chest. Especially when he realised that she had fallen asleep in his arms long after multiple movies. Everyone else had also fallen asleep except for him and he carefully stood up without waking her to pick her up and take her to bed. His chest squeezed seeing her sigh blissfully and turn to hug her pillow, quickly turning away back to his side of the room and sitting down on his bed.

What is this? Why am I feeling like this?

"Hey (y/n), so we're still up for tonight?"

"Yeah! Meet back at my apartment with the others and we'll head off to the clubs together."

"Ok sounds good. What time?"

(Y/n) held her phone as she spoke to her friend, warming up some food for lunch that Five left for her before he went to work. She couldn't help but think about what he was up to, wondering what he might wear for the group outing tonight.

He looks good in anything.

Especially his uniform. It was a classic resort suit that fit him so well, it was hard not to stare before he said goodbye to her and went to work. She would be left dumbfounded on the couch every time.

"(Y/n), you there?"

The girl blinks back to the present, quickly saying yes to her friend who was calling for her attention.

"Thinking about Five?"

Her friend snickers and she just freezes, processing those words.

"What? No!"

"Sure you're not."

"Actually, I kinda have something I need to admit. You swear not to tell anyone?"

"On my life."

"...I think I have a thing for my roommate..."

"Oh my god!"

"Like... I think I have a crush on Five..."

"(Y/n)! Holy shit!"

"He's just, oh he's so cute and so handsome! And he's so sweet! And just amazing! He cooks for me and drives me around whenever I ask him. Oh, he's an absolute dream."

"You should tell him-"

"-no! I'm only here for 6 months! There's no point. We live across the world. It's just too short-"

"-but you should try-"

"-I can't. I'm gonna be miserable when I leave knowing I won't see him again."

"(Y/n)-"

"-let's just leave it, please. I shouldn't have said anything..."

(Y/n) sighs and her friend frowns, the call quickly switching to what the girls would be wearing tonight. Both girls said goodbye and ended the call to get ready, the former going into the bathroom to change unknowing of her roommate coming back home.

Five groans softly as he stretches his arms above his head, hearing soft humming from his bedroom and he laughs softly knowing it was his roommate. He sits down on the couch and takes his blazer off, rolling up his sleeves and just relaxing with his eyes closed after being on his feet for hours nonstop. He peeks his eyes open when the doors finally open, relieved to go shower and change but his breath hitches when he sees her walk out.

The brunette didn't know why his heart jumped but seeing (y/n) walk out in that little black pleated skirt and her leather jacket with her Converse shoes...

Damn...

He breathes out softly, closing his eyes immediately to not stare at her for so long, not realising that she was looking at him.

The girl's heart beat faster and she flushed when she saw Five stretched out on the couch, his hair a wild mess from the slick back it had been in before, his shirt unbuttoned from the top, sleeves rolled up with his arms stretched behind him and those thighs. God those thighs of his stretching out in his black suit pants with his tie loosened over his black vest.

Holy shit, holy shit!

She could've fainted then and there but quickly turned around when he opened his eyes.

Five groans to himself when he sees (y/n)'s thighs when her skirt flits up, gripping his thigh to try and keep himself calm. He quickly gets up and slips past her, faltering against the bathroom door he quickly shuts behind him, hit with a sweet smell from her that had him hooked.

This was dangerous, they lived together!

(Y/n) waited for her friends to come by, letting them in and passing them pre-drinks for the night while they all waited for her roommate to get ready. As soon as Five walked out, she choked on her drink and quickly turned around as one of her friends pats her back.

Oh my fucking god...

He was wearing these leather pants and a black silk shirt, tucked in but more than half the buttons undone with his sleeves rolled up. His wet hair was slicked back and she turns around to look at him again and admire how fucking sexy he is.

"Are we ready to go?" Five asks and everyone says yes, them all walking out for a long night of drinking, dancing and just all round American crazy partying.

"Five, doesn't (y/n) look pretty?" One of the friends say, bumping her hip to push the two together as they walked to their Uber.

"Yes, she looks lovely tonight." He smiles as he drapes his arm around her shoulder, not unusual as he would say such sweet things to his roommate and express friendly gestures like this with her.

"Let's hope she finds a guy! She needs to let loose tonight!" Another friend says and something about that ticked the brunette off by their words.

Was she trying to hook up with someone?

He knew that wasn't something she would do, wouldn't go as far as have a one-night stand either. They've talked about how far they've gone and he knows that she's kissed like two guys in her life but they weren't good. She blames herself for not knowing what to do and it takes all of his willpower to not show her exactly what to do with him.

Maybe tonight-

"-lets go! The Uber is here!" (Y/n) exclaims, dragging everyone outside for the car waiting for them and they all got in, driving down the streets of Florida as music blasted from the radio. It was chaos with the singing and the rush of wind with the top down but it was so lovely. The city came quickly as the car parked outside where the club was, everyone scrambling to get out to line up and show their ID to be let in.

"It's so wild that Five here is the oldest of all of us by like 5 years." One of the friends muse, heading straight for the bar to get shots for everyone.

"Cheers to the old guy here being 26!" Another jokes, shots being passed around before everyone downed it together after clinking their glasses.

"Haha very funny." Five rolls his eyes with a smile, looking over at (y/n) who was trying to decide on a cocktail to drink. "Anything you fancy?"

"Just trying to figure out which one would be sweet. You know-"

"-you hate the taste of alcohol. I know. That one is a good one. Plenty of alcohol but enough sweetness to drown it out." He suggests a drink for her and she nods, ordering two for the both of them to have.

"Ooo it's green." He muses at her words when the bartender passes them their margaritas with little umbrellas, both of them taking a sip to enjoy the drink.

"Good?"

"Holy shit yes!" She gasps, humming in delight and he watches her walk off to dance with the other girls on the dance floor, leaving the guys with him.

"You like her, don't you." One of the guys ask the brunette but he doesn't say anything, watching the way her hips sway to the music.

"Who?" Five asks calmly, taking a sip of his drink without taking his eyes off (y/n). There's nothing that could take his attention off her.

"(Y/n)! We know you like her!"

"What makes you say that?" The brunette keeps brushing it off, raising a brow seeing his roommate down the rest of her drink easily before dancing with her friends once she sets the empty glass down on a table.

"You're just staring at her now too!"

"I could be staring at anyone." He runs his eyes down her body, watching the way she belted out the lyrics happily and jumped with her friends. The light shines on her so beautifully, that little fucking skirt of hers flitting around her thighs deliciously.

"I give up with this guy."

"Five, you better make a move before someone gets to (y/n) first." This immediately ticks him off, narrowing his eyes at his friends who nod at a guy that was talking to his roommate on the dance floor. The brunette didn't like the way this guy was getting close to her, seeing the way she blushes when he said something in her ear and tucks her hair back. He especially didn't like how they started dancing together, her arms around his neck and his around her waist. He immediately saw red when this guy pressed a kiss on her neck, downing his drink and storming to the both of them.

(Y/n) was bored as the stranger she was dancing with kissed her neck, not feeling it with him and she tried to find a way out until she yelps when she felt her body being pulled back harshly from the guy. She shudders when her back hits a chest, looking up behind her to see that it was Five glaring at the guy with such a deadly look as he gripped her waist tightly to not let her move anyway. The stranger tsks in annoyance and just leaves.

She leans up on her toes and yells over the music as best as she could to her roommate. "Thanks! I was not feeling it with that guy! I was trying to leave so thanks for coming to get me!" She stands back and looks up at her roommate with wide eyes seeing the annoyed look on his face. "You good!?" He unclenches his jaw and just nods, letting her go and she moves to grab his hand now that he was on the dance floor. "Let's go dance! Come on!" She pulled him to the middle where the rest of their friends were, enjoying her roommate's flustered state since he was not much of a dancer. "Five, come on!" The brunette couldn't say no, enjoying how much his roommate was having fun as she jumped to the music and he relaxed to dance with her. They both sang to the lyrics, dancing together happily as he held her hand and spun her around beneath his arm. He loved hearing her laughter, pulling her close when she stumbled back and sways with her as he held her waist and she held his shoulders.

Five didn't know if the sudden rush of heat that hit him was the alcohol or being so extremely close to his roommate like this, being able to smell her perfume and immediately become intoxicated by her as she smiled up him with flushed cheeks.

(Y/n) furrows her brows in confusion when her roommate leans down close to her ear like he wanted to say something but hesitates, him leaning back up and a sudden heat rushes through her when she sees his eyes blow wide as soon as he looks at her.

He couldn't take his eyes off her and she gets sucked into the dark, the music fading out around her but she gets pulled out of the trance when her friend pulls her away for more drinks. The whole group goes to the bar for another shot and another drink, cheering each other on to down another shot.

(Y/n) stutters when her roommate tossed his head back to take his shot, the tequila dripping down his neck as it glistened from the club strobe lights. Heat spread down and she shook her head to take her shot as well, unknowing that Five was watching her. He bites down on his bottom lip seeing his roommate take her leather jacket off to take her shot, the liquid making her lips shiny and he groans when she licks them and sucks her thumb clean of the alcohol.

The two get pulled back to the dance floor again, the group dancing together and going wilder the longer the night goes on. In the end, the group decided to head back home since they were getting really tired but decided to plan something with Five and (y/n) before they left them at the club since they wanted to stay longer. The party rock anthems that played turned sultry and the girls gently pushed (y/n) towards Five as the guys gently moved him closer to her. They both don't realise, letting the dark and music muffle their senses until they feel each other.

The brunette immediately perched his hands on his roommate's hips when he recognised her perfume, pulling her back flush against his chest as he swayed with her. Her hands reached up to tangle in his hair as the other held his hand on her hip, her breathing out shakily when she could feel his breath on her neck.

She sighs out from the heat that spread through her, her heart racing as her mind was running miles per second when she felt her roommate gently move her hair over one shoulder. He groans softly in her ear when she tilts her head for him along with his fingertips brushing on her skin, pulling her closer to him as his hands wrap around her entirely this time.

"Five..." (y/n) sighs out softly as she closes her eyes, feeling his breath hitch before he nuzzled her neck and pressed his lips gently on her skin.

Five's heart jumped happily seeing his roommate immediately lean her head back against his shoulder with a soft blissful breath, urging him on to continue. His body felt so hot, his skin itching to feel more and he gripped her tight as he pressed more kisses in her skin. He moans softly in pleasure from her sweet taste, absolutely intoxicated by her only and obsessed with the way she melted in his arms as he kissed her. He wanted more, to hear her more, feel her more, his fingers slipping beneath her shirt to touch her bare waist.

(Y/n) gasped out in pleasure as it spiked through her, like electricity buzzing through her and sending tingles down her body. She hadn't felt like this with anyone, especially not with them kissing her neck but with her roommate... oh god... is this what pleasure feels like with someone you actually want? She grips his hair a little tighter and he groans against her neck, moving to suck and bite his marks on her in response as he held her up when her legs shook beneath her.

"(Y/n)..." Five breathes out with a deep moan, one of his hands hooking around her to hold her up tight against his chest and the other around her jaw to hold her neck up bare for him to litter his marks on her. The music silenced the world around them, the dark keeping them in their own little bubble as their senses heightened on each other.

The brunette runs his tongue over his dark marks, his hair tickling his roommate's cheeks before leaning back only a little bit to see his claim on her. He smirks from the way she shudders when he runs his fingers down her bruised neck, gently pushing down her leather jacket and her the straps of her top to kiss her shoulder before he holds her chin to turn her face towards his. His eyes darken seeing how flustered and hazed his roommate was for him, her doe eyes hooded with want just like his.

He leans down closer to her and his heart starts jumping in his chest, leaning his forehead on hers as she held onto his arms tightly before he gently pressed his lips against hers. It was like a burst of heat and sparks exploded in both the couple, the kiss gentle and unsure at first but turned sweeter and softer until she suddenly pulled away first when she felt her phone buzzing in her pocket.

(Y/n) felt heat rush up to her cheeks and her face, gently touching her lips almost in shock and worry before looking up at her roommate and everything cleared up like a sudden hit to the chest. Five didn't like the worried look on his roommate's face, as if she regretted kissing him and his heart sank when she stepped away from him slightly. The air turned cold and awkward quickly and he grew worried that he overstepped his boundaries but it wasn't that. How could she tell him that she didn't know how to kiss someone properly. She didn't know what to do properly and she thought that her roommate was probably drunk and didn't actually want to kiss her. He thought she didn't want to kiss him and that he made a major mistake that would break their friendship. 2 months down the drain and he was worried that he would lose her.

How could they not realise it wasn't the alcohol?
