What has COVID-19 taught you

Very Much Cursing in this one.

So It’s 2 AM and I thought taught was spelled tought and chickens were spelled chicen.

Yeah it’s not about me but I feel like writing a short.

This is going to have Aurora, Ronin, Cora, Nico, and Vesper.

Aurora is MC.

Ronin is her Closest friend.

Cora is her sister.

Nico is the local gay best friend.

Vesper is Nico’s BF.

“Aurora?” A voice calls from the hallway.

A creak comes from her bed as she slowly sits up. It’s hard for her to stay awakelong enough to give a shit about the knock. “No.”

“Honey, that’s not how that works.”

“Cora, Leave me the fuck alone.”

“No. You need to come downstairs and get breakfast. Mom already left, and we are in quarantine.”

“Goddammit, Cora. Why wake me up though?”

“Ronin Is at the door.”

From outside the door, scrambling can be heard as Aurora hurries to change clothes and get ready. Cora smiles slightly to know that Aurora still Wants to look decent for people. But that look is wiped off her face when Aurora comes out of her room in a tank top and shorts, fists clenched. “I told that asshole not to come, because of quarantine!” She races down the stairs, opends the door and “Playfully” Punches Ronin in the shoulder. It was Quite hard, to be honest.

Ronin smiles a little bit, not having flinched. “Hello, Aurora.” He says in a deep voice that would put you to sleep if you heard it too long. Which, Aurora was tired, so hearing him didn’t help.

“You came all the way here, you might as well come inside.” She stands aside for him to come in, which he does. She closes the door behind him. “Did you at least bring gossip? Is there any damn gossip?”

“No, unfortunately not. That would be amazing though, given quarantine and stuff.”

“People always find a way to fuck with each other.” Ronin was 6′3″, and Aurora was 4′7″ so Ronin had to sit down in order for her to be taller.

“That’s true.” He says, and says “Have you eaten yet?”

“No, Cora woke me up because you were here.”

His face darkens. “Go eat. I’ll wait.” He was one of those people who would rather their friends take care of themselves than talk to him, so he stood watch over her, making sure she actually eats something.

She finishes eating and stands up, jumping a mile when she realizes he was standing there. “Holy shit! How long were you standing there?”

“Ten Minutes?”

“I didn’tnotice you. Good job, I guess? Anyway. Have you gotten a text from Nico or Vesper yet?”

“Yeah. Why?” Her face falls a little, and he nods. “I see. So You might have to defend me in court,” He jokes. “Anyway, did you guys fall out or somthing?”

“No, but I didn’t text him for a little bit to see if he would start a conversation for once and he didn’t. Now I’ve been texting him daily, but he hasn’t responded.”

“Okay, I get it. Do you want me to ask him to text you back?”

“Please.”

“Okay.” He walks back to the living room, and sits down on the couch. Aurora sits next to him. He ruffles her hair a little bit. She smiles to him, and she sits down next to him, and he sends the message to Nico.

U there?

Yea wassup

Could U txt Aurora? She misses U

I don’t see why not

Second later, a ringtone goes off from Aurora’s Phone. It’s a notification that Nico Has blocked Aurora’s number, then her various social media accounts. Aurora leans into Ronin, and he looks down at her phone and sighs.

Yo wtf. y u block her?

Bruh wtf what are you doing together

It’s none of your business, is it?

It kinda is. That is my best friend.

I wasn’t aware that best friends block each other.

Ronin doesn’t notice Aurora crying until Cora is at her side with a tissue. Ronin puts an arm around Aurora, and she sobs into him. Cora smiles sadly. Ronin holds Aurora tenderly, and begins singing a soft lullaby to her, since she still seemed to be tired.

Aurora falls asleep.

When Aurora wakes up, she is laying down on the couch, while Ronin was on the phone outside on theporch. He seemed to be having an argument with somebody. She stands up, and goes to find cora to thank her for breakfast. She finds her in her office, typing out an email. As soon as she knocks on the door, Cora turns around and pins Aurora in a hug. She says, “Are you okay?” When she releases her.

“I’ll be okay. Thank you for breakfast, by the way.”

Cora nods. “Just doing my part.”

Aurora smiles, and goes out to the living room, and sees Ronin on the porch, hanging up. He walks back in, with a “Good morning, Sunshne! How was your nap?”

She scowls. He laughs. “Exactly what I mean.”

“It was fine. Who were you arguing with, are you on okay terms now, and do I have to kill the-”

“Nobody, it was fine.”

Aurora stares at Ronin. "It didn't look like nothing, but okay."

Ronin shrugs her comment off. "It was Vesper."

Aurora scowls. She doesn't really like Vesper much. "What about?"

"Talking trash."

"Ah."

Ronin sighs. "Anyway, It's about noon, I should get home."

"Ah. When are you comeing back?"

"Tomorrow, if that's okay?"

"Yeah."

Part 2?
