Gambler's Luck; Aventurine × Y/N
Beginning
It was a wonderful, ordinary morning.
You and your roommate, March 7th, had just arrived from the airport.
March 7th (Roomate)
Finally here! I was getting kinda dizzy in that plane.. What about you, (Y/N)?
March 7th (Roomate)
That's great! By the way, Himeko said she bought us a room at an apartment..
March 7th (Roomate)
Now, where could that be?
March 7th (Roomate)
Great Idea!
March 7th (Roomate)
Let me just grab my phone and..
March 7th (Roomate)
Hey, (Y/N) what happened?
(???)
Ah, apologies. I didn't mean to bump into you.
(???)
Well, I'm in a rush but I'll try to pay you back!
March 7th (Roomate)
What was that all about?
March 7th (Roomate)
Anyway, (Y/N)… I already texted Himeko and she said our apartment is at xxx-xxx-xxx!
March 7th (Roomate)
Ready to go?
You and March continue walking towards the apartment building with the help of Himeko's message.
You
Hey, March. Is that the building?
March 7th (Roomate)
Yup! Over there.
March 7th (Roomate)
We should go inside and check in!
You and March enter the apartment building.
As you both enter, the area suddenly feels cooler with all the AC's inside.
March 7th (Roomate)
Brr… The temperature here is a big change from outside!
March 7th (Roomate)
Hey, that should be the reception desk!
You both walk over to the receptionist.
(???)
Welcome to xxxxx Apartments. How may I help you both?
You
We're here to check in.
(???)
Of course, and what is your names?
You
I'm (Y/N) and this is March 7th. We should be in your system.
March 7th (Roomate)
What is it?! Is anything wrong??
(???)
Nope, all good. I just had to check.
(???)
Your room is in the 3rd floor 5 doors to the right.
March 7th (Roomate)
We appreciate your help, Sir!
You and March 7th go to the side.
March 7th (Roomate)
Okay so… 3rd floor, 5 doors to the right.
March 7th (Roomate)
Ready to go?
× Ring, ring… Ring, ring... ×
You
Huh? Himeko's calling us…
March 7th (Roomate)
Pick it up! It might be important
The Man
Himeko
Hi, (Y/N)! It's Himeko
March 7th (Roomate)
«Hii, Himeko!!!!!»
You
What's up? Why'd you call?
Himeko
Me, Welt, and Dan Heng are going to come by in about 2 days
Himeko
You know, just to check up on you all!
March 7th (Roomate)
«Really??»
Himeko giggles, hearing March 7th in the background
March 7th (Roomate)
«Awesome!!!»
You
Alright then, we'll see you guys in 2 days.
Himeko
Stay safe while we're out.
March 7th (Roomate)
«Yes, Ms. Himeko!!»
You and March 7th look at each other
March 7th (Roomate)
Nah, I'd like to explore and take some pictures~
March 7th (Roomate)
What about you, (Y/N)?
You and March 7th explore the apartment building
March sometimes takes pictures of interesting or pretty things you both see
You both go outside to explore more
While March is taking pictures, you find a man approaching you.
You look at March, then back to him
(???)
Chill, no need to worry.
(???)
I'm not here to cause trouble.
You look at the man suspicously
(???)
I just came here to apologize.
You try to recall if you saw this man before.
He was the one who bumped into you earlier!
You
You're the man who bumped into me earlier, right?
(???)
Yes, and I'd like to apologize
Suddenly, March 7th pops up
March 7th (Roomate)
Hey! (Y/N), what's happening? is this dude bothering you?
(???)
Say, how about I apologize through dinner?
March 7th (Roomate)
Dinner?!
March 7th (Roomate)
(Y/N), you shouldn't go out with strangers you just met!
March 7th (Roomate)
Do you even know his name?!
Aventurine
The name's Aventurine.
Arrangement
Aventurine
The name's Aventurine.
March 7th (Roomate)
(Y/N), are you seriously considering going out with this guy?!
You pause briefly before responding
March 7th (Roomate)
This man is fishy!
March 7th (Roomate)
Who knows what he'll do??
You
Relax… If anything happens, I'll call you.
Aventurine
Rest assured, nothing will happen.
Aventurine
Just a little dinner~
March 7th (Roomate)
I can't believe you..
You
Don't worry, if anything happens... I'll take the blame.
You
Besides, I doubt anything would.
March 7th (Roomate)
Whatever you say..
Aventurine
So, 6 PM tonight?
Aventurine
At xxx-xxx-xxx. See you there~
After that, Aventurine walked away.
You turned around to see March looking all grumpy
You let out a soft chuckle
March 7th (Roomate)
You can't just be agreeing to go out with strangers!
March 7th (Roomate)
Because something might happen!
March 7th (Roomate)
Something bad!
March 7th (Roomate)
Besides, if anything happens the crew would blame me!
You
Heh... Don't worry, I'll be fine.
You
If anything does happen, blame it all on me. Okay?
March 7th (Roomate)
Don't think March will forget this!
You
So, wanna go to our rooms now?
March 7th (Roomate)
Yeah, kinda tired now..
You and March 7th walk back into the apartment building.
March follows you to the elevator.
March 7th (Roomate)
Ah, finally here!
March 7th (Roomate)
Where was our room again?
You
Hm.. Third floor, five doors to the right!
March 7th (Roomate)
Alright!
March 7th and you head to the room.
As you enter, you notice it's a bit spacious.
There's two beds and closets.
Infront of the beds is one coffee table with a TV infront.
The apartment has a small kitchen alongside a dining area.
March 7th (Roomate)
Woahh!
March 7th (Roomate)
Himeko really outdid it when buying us an apartment!
You
Anyways, I should go and dress up...
March 7th (Roomate)
I'm telling you, (Y/N)... You better be careful!
You
I will, I will.. Don't worry.
You go to the bathroom and prepare for your dinner with Aventurine.
