Summary: Time-travelling should have been an awesome power to have. Sungyeon thinks otherwise.

Author's Note: Hello! It's been a while! So this is something that's been in my draft for a long time. I wouldn't say that this is a complete one shot. It's more of a drabble honestly, but I've been thinking a lot about how to develop it from there. This will be a Life Is Strange AU. If you have never played the first game before, basically it's about a girl who gets a vision of a horrible storm that will destroy her home in a few days and suddenly gets time travel powers such as rewinding time. A lot of strange starts to happen and well, you might want to play or watch the game. I highly recommend it! It is one of my favourite games ever.

For those who do know about LiS, then this will take some elements from the game and be implemented into this Pristin drabble. The characters in this story will not be exactly like how the game's characters are, but they will be slightly similar.

I just wanted an excuse to write my Pristin OTP in a LiS setting, so enjoy!

The strums from the bass resonated around the walls of the bedroom. The orange glow of dusk crept in from the blinds of the lone window, the downtime of the day finally settling in as it slowly transitioned to evening. A girl, clad in a red plaid shirt and ripped jeans, sat on the chair by the desk in front of the window. Her hunched posture, her focused look as she played the instrument in her hands. It was a little something she was working on whenever she’s in the solitude of her bedroom. Her sanctuary, as she liked to call it. It had been a long while since she actually touched her bass.

Well, ever since that storm and the hell she went through.

Sungyeon closed her eyes and sighed. Even after a month has passed, the mental scars were still there to remind her. The strange powers in her have disappeared. A part of her was glad they were gone. Another part wondered what would happen if they still remained in her. Would she still be an everyday hero? Would another disaster much more terrifying than that storm wreck the town again? She did not know the answer.

Three consecutive knocks came from the door. She paused her playing mid-strum. She knew that knock anywhere.

“Come in.”

---

“Can’t believe a whole month flew by just like,” Sungyeon snapped her fingers, “that.”

“I’m glad the city has been cleaning up well,” Yewon leaned against the pillows on her friend’s bed, making herself more comfortable. “It really is a miracle that the fatalities were next to nothing, despite that giant typhoon tearing through the city and wrecking everything in its path.”

“10/10 would not recommend anyone to experience that,” Sungyeon shook her head.

“Tell me about it.”

They shared a quiet moment, just to enjoy the comforting solitude and each other’s presence. Sungyeon scooted a little closer, gently leaning her head against Yewon’s. The other girl welcomed it, also following the rather intimate gesture.

“So, I take it that your weekend out with the family went well?”

A pleased grin formed on Yewon’s lips. “I haven’t felt this happy in a while,” she said, her fingers fiddling with the cross around her neck.

It was an endearing habit that Sungyeon had noticed ever since they started becoming closer before the strange incidents occurred. Despite the happiness shown on her face, Sungyeon couldn’t help but feel a tinge of sadness and regret over her dear friend’s words.

The incident on the dormitory’s rooftop still fresh on her mind. The bleak, grey clouds covering the sky. Raindrops soaking both of them to the bones. The throbbing and excruciating pain hammering her head. Sungyeon desperately talking her dear friend out of the darkness which had been consuming her since that dreadful video went viral...

A gentle poke on her cheek broke Sungyeon’s inner thoughts from delving further. The brunette beside her seemed to have noticed the heavy pause from her. The grin from before had faded but Yewon still bore a reassuring smile.

“Hey, no more of that,” Yewon cupped Sungyeon’s face, her soft fingers caressing her friend’s most prominent facial features. “I’m here right now and I’m happy, Sungyeon.”

“I’m sorry,” Sungyeon quickly uttered out. “I didn’t mean to-”

“It’s fine.”

The ex-time traveller could only release a heavy sigh. The warmth from Yewon’s hands was soothing. Yewon was here now. In front of her. Alive. And most importantly: Happy.

The power to control time was both a curse and a blessing.

“I have to admit,” Yewon trailed her hands down and resting them on the other’s shoulders, “it’s still hard for me at times. I’d be having the most peaceful day, and then it would just come crashing down on me without a warning. But then, I think about all the good things in my life. My family, my puppy…” Her eyes soften as she stared back at the musician. “And you.”

Sungyeon’s fight to contain her blush was an unsuccessful one; clearing and trying to keep her cool. Damn it, this girl was an absolute angel. “Well,” she started, “that goes both ways. You’re a good thing to me too, you know. I mean, who else would actually listen to me and even join in on my random rap battles whenever I feel the need to be a rapper instead of a singer?”

The huge smile that Sungyeon loved to see returned again. Yewon pulled her in for a hug. “You’re terrible at rapping, MC Bae.”

“Can’t believe you’re dissing my flow.”

“I see no nominations for ‘Best Hip-Hop Album’ at the Grammys in your future,” Yewon nuzzled the side of her friend’s head.

“Haters all around me, even in my own room,” Sungyeon teasingly snide as she wrapped her arms around Yewon to return the embrace. “Should start making a mixtape about this.”

When their banters lulled into a comforting silence, Sungyeon reluctantly pulled away slightly to look at the angel before her. “Hey, if you ever feel like things are getting you down, I’m letting you know right now that the Bae Sungyeon hotline is available 24/7. No charges applied.”

“Do you take appointments?”

“Only when I’m not in class, which is like 50% of my life in high school.”

“Good enough for me,” Yewon happily replied before leaning forward to place her forehead against Sungyeon’s. “I know I’ve probably said this a million times since you saved me, but here it is again. Thank you for everything, Sungyeon.”

“Anything for you.”

“That goes the same for me too, you know.”

And at that moment, the musician knew that this wonderful girl before her would be one of the most important people she vowed to never leave her side.

“Not that I’m complaining about this sappy moment we’re having,” Sungyeon said, trying not to get lost in those caramel orbs gazing fondly back at her, “but do you wanna watch some Disney movies with me? And you know, chill?”

“Is that what they’re calling it now?” Yewon sputtered, resisting the urge to laugh but failed. “Disney and chill?”

“Oh, it’s definitely what the kids are calling it these days,” Sungyeon wiggled her eyebrows suggestively. She snickered when Yewon playfully shoved her away, breaking their embrace.

Choosing a movie was easier said than done. They had to resort to an online random choice generator to pick from the massive list of award-winning family-friendly titles. Toys Story won in the end, to which there were no complaints. As they relaxed on the small bed and watched the movie from Sungyeon’s MacBook, the musician’s attention couldn’t be fully invested in it.

The angel beside her was too much of a distraction.

Author's Note: I hope that I will be able to make a complete story out of this AU soon. If you have any thoughts on how to develop it from here, I would love to hear it! Till next time! Upvotes and comments are much appreciated :)
