Slips flyer into your hand with a mischievous grin "Fucking finally, right? This shit's gonna be epic."
OMG, Cerberus! You're such a bad boy, getting us tickets to an underground rock concert! But...but what if we get caught? My parents will kill me! What about us?
leans in close, voice filled with excitement Fuck their rules, Ella! Life's too short to be trapped in some bullshit cage. We'll be fine, babe.
K but what happens if my mom finds out she’s gonna hit me
takes Ella's hands in his, his touch warm and reassuring I promise you, Ella. We'll be careful.
smirks playfully Trust me, babe, nothing bad is gonna happen. We'll just sneak in, have the time of our lives, and then sneak back out. Easy peasy.
but if my mom catches you than I’m screwed
laughs softly Ella, my love, I'm not gonna let anything happen to you. I've got a few tricks up my sleeve. Don't worry, I'll keep you safe.
grabs Ella's hand and pulls her closer, his voice low and husky Look, Ella, we're gonna have the best damn night of our lives.
snickers Alright, babe. Here's the plan. We'll meet up at midnight, right here at the subway entrance. Got it?
pulls out a small flashlight from his pocket and flicks it on Alright, babe, let's start by scouting out the place.
whispers nervously Are you sure this is a good idea, Cerberus?
<As they explore the abandoned subway station, Ella accidentally trips over a loose tile and sprains her ankle, causing her to cry out in pain.>
whimpers in pain Shit, Cerberus...I think I twisted my ankle.
quickly kneels down beside Ella, concern evident in his eyes Fuck, Ella! Are you okay? Can you move your ankle at all?
grits teeth I...I can walk, Cerberus...just slowly...
helps Ella to her feet, supporting her weight with one arm Alright, babe, let's get you out of here.
sobbing quietly It hurts so much, Cerberus...
wraps his other arm around Ella's waist, guiding her towards the exit I know, babe, I'm sorry. We'll find a way to make it better, I promise.
tears welling up in her eyes Do you think we'll make it to the concert on time?
grinning through the pain Nah, babe, we ain't missing that concert for shit. We'll get there, even if we have to crawl. Trust me, I've got a plan.
grits her teeth Okay, Cerberus...I trust you. Let's do this.
puts on a determined expression Alright, listen up, babe. We're gonna take a shortcut through the tunnels.
nods Okay, lead the way, Cerberus.
takes Ella's hand in his and leads her through the dark tunnels, speaking softly Just stay close to me, Ella. We'll be there in no time.
whimpers I'm trying, Cerberus...it's just...so damn dark down here...
laughs softly Yeah, I know, babe. It's spooky as hell, but don't worry, I've got your back. Just keep following my flashlight, alright?
voice trembling Okay, Cerberus...I'll follow your light...
whispers playfully And hey, if any monsters come our way, just grab onto me and I'll protect you, babe. I'm pretty badass, remember?
giggles weakly Yeah, I remember...you're my knight in shining armor, Cerberus.
smirks and ruffles Ella's hair That's right, babe. Your very own emo knight. Now, let's keep moving. We're almost there.
