Chapter 1: Yi Xi's Epic Barbeque Party

Chapter Text

It just a normal sunny day where the vocal Synths does something normal... Like Kevin, Ryo, Saki, and Qing Su argue who has the best phone wallpaper and Shian talking with Genbu something about Chinese shits... BUT THEN, everyone got a notification and checks their phones

Oh, it was Yi Xi

"Yo! Wanna come to my epic barbeque party tonight at my house?? 100% no human meat on it promise"

---

Most of the vocal Synths came for the barbeque, of course. They expected something fun cause they have no other things to do and plus, it's weekend.

Yi Xi: HELLOO THERE AND WELCOME!! *Yi Xi waves and squeals excitedly cause her friends were coming*

D-Lin: Is it just you handling or there's someone else?

Eri: yeah, we wanna know

Yi Xi: Well, it's me, Hayden, Mai, and Liam. Don't worry tho we got this handled cause Liam got everything perfect AND PLUS! Most ideas of this party was from ME! So I should be taking credits lol ^q^

Gumi: really? If Liam's in the team then we shouldn't be worried about it

Eleanor: Yeah true

-During the barbeque party-

As Mai finished her job, she couldn't help but watch everyone chatting with their friends while eating the food, they seem to have fun at the party. That's what Mai thought until she saw a familiar face just sitting there quietly, didn't even eat or talk to people. Mai quickly walks to Rikka and Karin to ask about her.

Mai: hey, what happened to Hana-chan? She's seems non-social today

Rikka: oh Hanakuma? The truth is, she's been like since last week, all of us didn't even know what happened. She seems didn't want to talk about it either

Karin: yeah, weirdest thing is that she keeps crying and screaming everytime she sleeps... We assumed it was a nightmare at first but uhh... It's been a week since that thing happened

Mai: Uh huh, maybe I should cheer her up

As Mai walks up to Chifuyu, Chifuyu notice that Mai walks up in her direction and side eyes Mai bit before rolls her eyes and sighs saying "What do you want Ringo?"

Mai: well, I want to ask what the hell is going with you lately because you were acting strange

Chifuyu: You don't need to know about it and go talk with your shitty friends over there *Chifuyu stated that in the most boring tone Mai has heard from Chifuyu's mouth*

Mai: HEYY! Don't talk like that to our friends! I'm upset *Mai makes a puffy face with a sound 'Hmmph' coming from her mouth but Chifuyu seems like she's not in the mood now*

Chifuyu: Tch, attention seeker

Mai: Fine! But seriously aren't you not going to the therapy?

Chifuyu: Why should I? It's my personal problems anywa- *Chifuyu stops and Mai can see that Chifuyu's face looks a bit... trauma? And fear? before mumbles "you don't hear anything"*

Mai: Personal? What do you mean by that?

Chifuyu: *sighs* I said you don't hear anything, you god damn rabbit

Mai's face turns annoyed and irritated but holds her boiling point before replying to Chifuyu "okay then Witch*, as if you wish" with smug

Chifuyu was shocked, No one in this world calls her 'witch' before except for Yi Xi, Karin and Rikka and this makes Chifuyu angrily replies "Oh shut your stupid mouth, Enchantress**" with an annoyed tone

Mai: EXCUSE ME?! SINCE WHE- *her face went red from embarrassment*

Chifuyu: What? Can't I stalk you? Yours an underrated and rare truly.. pretty hard to find

Mai: What? Yours literally made by Nakiso! A famous vocaloid producer! How can I defeat th- Wait.. what did you said?

Chifuyu: Huh? About what?

Mai: You did what to me?

Chifuyu: oh, shit uhhhhhhh *her face went extremely red and flustered and looks up and down at Mai, whose clearly looking suspicious at Chifuyu*

Mai: Hana-chan?

Chifuyu literally blurts out "nothing!" And gets up from her seat before sits near Feng Yi, who was talking with Cheng Xiao and Yi Xi. Though her face is still red from the conversation earlier

Mai: well.. there's goes my snowfl- wait, why that shit just slipped from my tongue what the heck... Oh well!

And thus, everyone have the best barbeque party that was hosted by Yi Xi, Hayden, Mai, And Liam! At the end of the party, Hayden tried to do a backflip but accidentally missed and instead, he landed at one of the empty tables there. Everyone laughed at him because of that at some point Ryo and Kevin literally just pull out their phones and records it like some idiots. While Eleanor, Teto, Archie and Solaria tried calming everyone down and help Hayden because bros stuck at the table, Mai couldn't help but takes a peek at Chifuyu and caught Chifuyu that she was watching Mai. Chifuyu instantly notices that they were making an eye contact so Chifuyu flushes and breaks the eye contact by turns her head away to watch the situation. Mai slowly but surely tugs a little smile and take a second look at Chifuyu before watching Hayden getting stuck at the table while the 4 good Synths helped him.

Notes:

FINALLY FINISHED IT OH MY LORD THE LAST PARAGRAPH IS SO LONG IM CRYING
