Chapter eight

Contains: fluff

[Rubi's description- she's about 5'8, has blue eyes with long dark brown hair and is average body weight. Sometimes dresses girly with bits and pieces of some Tom boy to mix, it can be your imagination what she wears too. Also I might have her be a lesbian who has a crush on a girl (not the reader lol).]
—————————————————————
"You finally told him!?" Rubi squealed when you told her what had happened after you had left the bar. You started to explain it from the start in the car on the way to your place to hangout a while, possibly have a sleepover if Rubi decides to stay and demand to hear more of your little romance quest. Finally arriving at your place before you could finish what had happened, Rubi decided to go take a shower really quick before hearing the biggest thing she's wanted to know.

But as she was getting ready, wearing your clothes you lent her. She began to feel terrible about what she had done. She had given Clyde the card you were meant to give him, it backfired and almost made Clyde think it was Rubi and not you. She wouldn't forgive herself if Clyde had actually started to like her and not you just because she gave him your letter. You deserved to be happy and Rubi wanted nothing but for you to be with a man you were falling for.

Plus Rubi wasn't interested in Clyde like that, wasn't her type.

Slowly she walked towards your room, taking a deep slow breath and exhaling slowly before she was about to enter.

"(Y/n)?" You heard a knock after you heard a voice calling you. Looking around you noticed it was Rubi behind your bedroom door.

"Come in." You say loud enough for her to hear.

Rubi walks slowly inside your room, almost scared to come in but you didn't really notice it much. Closing your door, she walks close enough to be near the end of your bed. She saw that you're now in your pajamas laying down and staring at your ceiling with your hair sprawled out on the pillow.

"Are you upset with me about yesterday?" She asked quietly, looking at your bedside clock noticing it's almost 2 in the morning. After yesterday with Clyde, you were thinking about how you didn't really know what to do now.

"I mean...I'm not gonna lie I was upset at you. I thought at first you were trying to make Clyde like you instead of me..for some reason. Despite knowing he's not your type." You chuckled then stopped for a moment.

Remaining silent for a brief second.

"I only gave it to him so that he can see that it's you and no one else. I didn't think he was going to assume it was me...I didn't wanna say your name So I just tried to give you guys a little shove you know?" Rubi said with a small sound in her voice of guilt as she stayed at the end of your bed.

"I know you nutjob, you're my dearest friend. I know you would never do that to me, you'd never try to steal him away." You smile and look to her.

"Thank you for trying to give us that shove. I just hope that my telling him my real name was a good hint...well good reveal but it's kind of.....like a hint hahaha." You laugh, making Rubi laugh with you.

"Wait wait wait wait that's it! So this means you really did finally tell him!?" Rubi asked excitedly, nearly forgetting. You quickly waved your hands trying to calm her excitement before it hit through the roof.

"Well...yes and no." You said with a nervous laugh as you waved your hands in the air a little. Rubi looked at you as if saying 'explain'.

You sigh with a small smile and begin to play with your hair a little.

"Hehe..well like I said I told him my real name, I didn't tell him it was me or that I'm the one whose had a crush on him since we first met in the bar a year ago.." Your heart raced rapidly as your confessed what happened.

"So what will you do for the reveal?" Rubi asked as she lays on the bed with you, staring at the ceiling. Your eyes widen as you realized you didn't think it entirely through for that as well.

"I....I actually don't know yet." You sigh as you bent your knees whilst laying on the bed. Rubi patted your bent knee in comfort.

"Hey..you'll figure it out (Y/n) and when you do it'll show him see that you do sincerely like him. Whatever happens I'm here for you." She said softly. You smiled and hugged Rubi tightly causing her to groan as your grip on her turned into an octopus type of hug.

"Awwww Rubi you're so nice when you're being all mushy for me." You both laugh again.

"Uhh Yeah yeah don't push it buster this is a once in a while feature of mine. Now come on let's see what you can do for him when you go back later tonight." Your eyes go wide.

"Tonight???? B-but I just told him who has been sending the letters what If that means he's gonna be looking for me at work and might catch me before Valentine's Day happens???" You panicked a little as so many scenarios ran through your mind all at once.

"Hey hey calm down today you said it was your day off isn't it? we'll just have to maybe change your face or do a different outfit style or wig yeah?" You think about it for a moment, remembering you were forced to take a couple days off for your hand incident and nod agreeing with her.

"Okay what should we give him?" Rubi asks, prepared to help you with your next gift. You both really weren't gonna get much sleep for a while.

—a few hours later when the bar is almost about to open—

You show up in a different wig and outfit, it turned out to be a (hair length & hair color) wig with (any outfit of choice). Rubi just wore sunglasses and a leather jacket matching her black jeans with some tan combat boots, she stayed in the car hiding. You looked around to make sure Clyde wasn't nearby yet, quickly you run to the bar and open it. Noticing no one was around, you went to leave the gift in the same place you always kept it.

You then heard a car engine and realized it was Clyde coming to open up the bar. You quickly remove your disguise, hiding it in a black trash bag. As soon as you locked up the bag, Clyde began to walk inside, noticing you in the corner of the bar with a black trash bag in hand.

"Hello there (Fake name) I thought you was off today? I told ya you gotta rest your hand." He said with a smile. Knowing how hard you worked whenever you came.

"Oh well you see sir I was just making sure everything was cleaned up so I had a friend come and bring me so I can..." You look at the bag.

"So I can make sure the trash was empty!" You said a little too loudly. Clyde chuckled.

"Well go on then you look like ya need to rest. Did ya stay up all night?" You blush then panicked a little.

"N-no I didn't haha well I'll go home now and I'll see you tomorrow for work sir. Have a good day." You smiled wide at him, making him blush without realizing it. You quickly rushed out of the bar and into the car, driving out of there so fast you didn't realize something.

After cleaning up the bar a bit he finally finished up and went to put the bottle at the bar stand where he stands. Suddenly seeing the gift in the place he's always seen it. Moving over to pick it up, he smiles as he looks at it. It was another letter, this time in a different stationary. Opening it, he read each word with a small smile..

'Roses are red and violets are blue, you now know my name and I can't wait to show you who.'

Clyde now has another clue to know who has been giving him his gifts..and now he might actually know whose been giving them to him.
