After a long wait, Spongebob finally managed to convince Mr. Krabs to go with him to a party at the new club that had been created in Bikini Bottom. (Of course, only after he said that he will pay for him...)
"I don't know, boy-o. I haven't been, you know, 'out there' for quite a while now."
"Oh I'm sure it's going to be fun Mr Krabs! Besides almost everyone is going there!"
Even though he was quite stressed, he was in a great mood to party, even have a few drinks here and there. Maybe he'll meet a pretty lady. Who knows? Everyone started getting ready. SpongeBob put on his best suit Squidward also tried to wear his best, and in his case it is all he has ofcorse. Once everyone was ready they headed towards the newly opened club, Bikini Bottom has practically never had a place like this before so it's a nice change. SpongeBob was especially excited because he would then be able to meet many new people and spend time with his friends. Mr. Krabs is wearing his stylish black suit with a red tie.
When they finally reached the club, they had a chance to see it up close. It was huge and located inside a large white shell. From outside you could hear the music playing and there were lots of lights shining. It looked fantastic. Everyone could already feel it was going to be a night full of excitement and lots of fun. When they entered, the security guard asked for their ID and then let them in. Wow, it was amazing inside. There was a huge disco ball mounted on the ceiling and spotlights everywhere ,which shimmered with different colors.
With all sorts of fish already there, it seemed most of them wanted to take advantage of the new club and have some fun. Mr. Krabs and Spongebob headed towards the bar, The cheerful sponge happily bought everyone a drink, and while Mr. Krabs was waiting for his drink, SpongeBob set off to hand them out to the others. As the man waited, he heard a familiar voice.
"Well, well, well, well, who do we have here? Hello, Eugene."
He immediately turns his head towards the voice. Plankton. Of course.He wss sitting in the chair while sipping on a drink next to him, be was wearing a black button-down which wasn't buttoned all the way up and left his chest visible, he also had some slim-fit black jeans. He still had his eye patch on. His green hair was down, looked like it grew longer again, not like Eugene noticed or anything.
"Sheldon."
"How you doing?"
"Don't ye start Plankton."
"Start what? I'm just trying to be civil and have a conversation."
"Yeah right. And what are you doing here?"
"What would I be doing at a club Krabs? Obviously I'm here to have fun"
"Fun? I don't believe that. Ye planning something."
Plankton sighs and gives Mr. Krab a small smirk.
"You know I'm not always planning something you're just being a little delusional. Chill out a bit."
Krabs rolls his eyes. The bartender serves the expected drink and Mr. Krabs immediately reaches for it. Plain ol' vodka.He looks at Sheldon's drink, he's never seen one like it before.
"What's that?"
"Oh this? It's a Singapore Sling. Want to try?"
"Nah looks too sweet for me."
Plankton looks at him for a while and the smiles.
"Hey Eugene. I bet real money that I'm going to drink more than you until this night is over."
"A bet ey?"
Mr. Krabs felt extreme suspicion,then followed by immediate, intense greed when he thought about the potential profit. He has a good head for alcohol he could definitely win this and get Plankton's money, that would be so embarrassing for Sheldon! Eugene smirks.
"Alright bet! I'll definitely win you plankter!"
"We'll see about that scuttler"
___________________________________
And so their game of drinking more began. At some point, the bartender lost track. As they drank and drank, they sometimes started to feel a little strange. The anger subsided a little after a while, but it was still present.
"Hah you look pretty wasted already Krabs!"
Plankton himself was having a bit of trouble, his tongue was starting to get a little tangled up because of how much he drank. Mr.Krabs He didn't want to admit that he was already very drunk, but he couldn't let Sheldon win.
"I don't know what you're talking about, you... silverfish"
He wanted to pretend to be a tough guy, he can't lie, all this alcohol has been making him think about things he hadn't thought about before. Let's see, thinking about their old friendship and, for some reason, how sexy Plankton looks now. Oh dear Neptune, why did he wear that damn shirt?
"HELLO MISTER KRABS! OH! AND PLANKTON HI!"
They both turned back and saw SpongeBob. He still looked sober, probably because he's not as foolish as they are, but who cares?
"Heya there boy. Are... he having fun?"
"Oh yes definitely! It's very fun. I came here to ask you if you would be interested in playing spin the bottle with us?"
"Spin the bottle absolutely n-"
He got rudely interrupted by the man next to him.
"Oh yeah definitely. I'm coming"
"Wh- You are?"
"Yeah why not? it's fun."
He got down from the cahir and followed SpongeBob, who started asking him what he was doing there and how he was having fun. Eugene also unsteadily jumped off the chair and followed them.
"Arrgh! Wait for me, ye barnacle-head! I won't just let you go and forget about our bet!"
________________________________________
Everyone who was eager to play sat together in a circle in a room that contained some couches and other types of armchairs. SpongeBob has prepared an empty wine bottle that would be perfect for the game.
"Okay! I think everyone knows the rules. You spin the bottle, and depending on who it lands on, you have to kiss them. It doesn't have to be in the mouth if you don't want it. We want everyone to feel comfortable and great!"
Wait, kiss? Mr. Krabs thought for a moment... Wait, if he's playing this game and Planton is too, doesn't that mean there's a chance they'll have to kiss?
"What's the matter, Eugene? Are you stressed? Maybe you shouldn't play if you're so scared."
"Scared? Me? Ye talking nonsense."
"I BET you won't be able to play!"
"HAH! YOU WISH!"
Plankton and Mr. Krabs were so drunk that they completely forgot they'd just been thinking about the rules of the game. The game begins. Everyone takes their turn, everyone laughs, some are a little embarrassed, but the overall atmosphere is really funny. It's finally Mr. Krab's turn He picks up the bottle and spins it around. Unfortunately, there are so many beautiful fish he could definitely kiss. But as if to spite him, the bottle... lands on Sheldon. Coincidence, isn't it?
Everyone in the circle goes "ooooooooh!" and starts laughing a little. It's actually kind of silly that enemies have to kiss. Krabs turns a little red in the face. Plankton is just as surprised, but takes advantage of the situation to make fun of his rival.
"No, don't worry, if Eugene is embarrassed he doesn't have to do it."
"What do you mean, am I embarrassed? I'm not! I'll show you!"
He gets up from his seat on the ground and heads towards Sheldon, who looks a little surprised, the group cheering him on. SpongeBob whispers to Squidward, "He's not really going to do that, is he?" When he said that, Mr. Krabs was already leaning in to kiss Plankton. His eyes widened. "WHAAAAAT?" Squidward smirked "Wow"
Mr. Krabs can't believe what he's doing, But it's possible that the alcohol doesn't make him think about it too much. As he kneeled on the ground in front of Plankton he closed his eyes and leaned in gently grabbing Sheldon's chin connecting their lips. He can't come to terms with the fact that...It's a bit pleasant. His lips were still sweet with the pineapple and Cherry Liqueur from his cocktail.
Mr. Krabs moved away as quickly as he could when he realised that he was holding the kiss for too long. As he walked away from Plankton, everyone started clapping. Sheldon on the other hand was shocked, he didn't expect that he would actually do it. He smirks through his drunkness.
"Wow okay..."
"Shut your mouth"
A moment later when everyone came back to playing and drinking, this time they wanted to play truth or dare. And each time somebody doesn't want to do the bet or tell the truth they have to take a shot. They start playing few people had to do something. Squidward had to say the alphabet backwards as fast as he can, which was a bit of a challenge because everyone was a little tipsy at some point. SpongeBob was dared to make a prank call to any random number. Of course he said yes, but nobody would call it a prank because he just called someone and told them good night. Ofcorse.
Then the bottle fell onto the plankton. The fish, who was spinning at the time, asked him, "Truth or dare?" He slams his drink down his throat and then sneers.
"Dare. Why not?"
The fish, who was also a little foamy, laughed; it clearly had a very good idea for a challenge. "Sit on someone's lap for the rest of this round." He takes in the information, looks at Eugene and smiles broadly. When Krabs saw that smile he already knew what was going to happen, he shakes his head and his expression screams "DON'T YOU DARE" then Plankton immediately stood up with a smirk on his face and sat on his lap.
Everyone looks surprised It's a bit strange to see one enemy sitting on the other's lap. Mr. Krabs growls from anger as he feels Sheldon's body touch his, he felt a light shudder coming through his body. In this situation, it certainly doesn't help that when he looks down he sees Plankton's half unbuttoned shirt. NEPTUNE HELP HIM! What is he thinking about!? This must be the alcohol....MUST BE!
"Get off of me you.... bastard"
"How about another bet?"
He says putting his face closer to Eugene's.
When Krabs hears the word bet again, his mind goes straight to money, he can't lose. He grabs Sheldon's waist a little, he did it to show he's not going to lose but Plankton blushed a little in reaction to the movement.
"I won't let you win"
________________________________________
When the round was finally over, Plankton was finally able to get off Mr. Krab's lap. After the weight of Sheldon's body disappeared from Eugen, he felt a little strange... There was a feeling of longing, which was very strange. Everyone takes another shot some people don't because they probably had enough...
"So are we going to continue playing?
SpongeBob asks. He still haven't looked really drunk, did he not drink at all?
"I'll be back."
Says Plankton He takes a few more gulps of the drink, then sets it down and heads toward a nearby hallway. Mr. Krabs's gaze immediately follows him, when did this plankter get so...so....arghhh! HE CAN'T STAND HIM!
He gets up and follows Plankton.
"oh Mr Krabs you're going too?"
"Uh-... Just for a moment boy"
"Okie dokie!"
He can barely walk anymore because of the alcohol, but something keeps him from stopping. She pushes through the crowd, never taking his eyes off the short bastard. Mr. Krabs walks after him into a secluded room...There's no one here because most people are currently dancing on the dance floor. The room is small And it just looks like a regular bedroom for some reason? Oh yeah, this club also has rooms and functions as a hotel from time to time. A very good plan for making a lot of money!
Wait, where is he? Eugene wondered where Sheldon had gone until the door closed behind him.
"Well, well.... Why are you following me around like that?"
"Well... uuuuh to make sure ye won't sneak off obviously not with money on the line!"
"Mhm...Sure, of course, because money is the only thing you think about, right?"
"...Of course"
For a moment they look at each other, not realizing that they are getting closer.The alcohol must have seriously messed with their heads, because why weren't they arguing right now? Why weren't they calling each other names? Why were they... KISSING? Wait what?!
Before they realized it, thier bodies pressed together heatedly against the wall, breathing heavily as thier lips pressed together. They shouldn't do that. But Eugene couldn't help but slid his hand to the back of Plankton's neck and keep kissing him. Sheldon's lips were warm and soft. They parted slightly, Mr. Krabs slid his tongue into his mouth. This kiss was so confusing, heated and aggressive at some point. They kissed so hard that they ran out of breath. They separated from each other to take a quick breath and then continued with the sloppy make out.
They both felt fuzzy, not only from the alcohol but also because of the feeling of their lips connected and their breaths mingled together. They kissed roughly at one point, so hard that Eugene heard Sheldon moan when he heard that sound, he felt hot. He knew they couldn't, but they wanted to so badly... Was this still the alcohol talking...?
Mr. Krabs pulled away, leaving a string of saliva between them, and leaned towards his "enemy's" neck. He begins kissing and sucking the skin.
"Aww how sweet Eugene~"
He smirks and puts his hand on Krabs's head tangling his fingers in his curly red hair. He giggled a bit as he feels the man's beard touch his neck.
"Ye know I hate you."
He says trying to emphasize the hatred in his voice As he later bites into Plankton's skin but all they both ould hear was passion and lust.
"Ngh...Nah... You love me."
Sheldon's other hand moves to Eugene's hips, sliding his fingers under his shirt. Krabs swallowed, dear Neptune... He couldn't hold back anymore. He tries to move away from the wall and go towards the bed but he seems to have forgotten that there are still both drunk out of their minds and the movement made them swing a bit. Eug Eugene steps backward and lands on the bed, pulling Plankton with him, he accidentally landed on his lap just like when they played spin the bottle. His hands squeezed the other man's thighs, he could feel himself starting to get excited.
"What is it Krabs? Can't handle a little heat?~"
Plankton whispers into already aroused Eugene's ear Then he places his hand on the others crotch. He knows exactly what he's doing, and Krab doesn't mind. Fuck.
_______________________________________
"I wonder where Mr Krabs went. Plankton hasn't come back either."
Asked curious SpongeBob.
"I don't really care"
Said Squidward as he drank some wine. Some people stopped playing the game after Mr Krabs wasn't showing up for a while. SpongeBob decides to go and look for them both. So he makes his way around the club. First he thinks maybe they're in the bathroom but they're not then he looks at the bar but they are not there as well. Then he goes into a hallway and hears some noises
The noises were faint but he could definitely hear something. "Nghh~ Eugene..." SpongeBob stops in his tracks. Oh no are they.... FIGHTING?! They probably got into a fight and now they're hurting each other. Oh no! SpongeBob was hoping they would get along at least onc, he follows the noise and ends up Infront of a slightly open door. He was about to enter when his eyes peeked inside and saw the bed in the room.
His eyes widened.
Oh.... they're not fighting.... definitely not fighting....
Well...
At least they got along...
______________________________________
Plankton woke up with a terrible headache and leg pain for some reason...he sits up in the bed. His hair is all messed up and sticking out in all directions.He has a terrible hangover, what happened at that party, how on earth did he end up home... No wait, this isn't his house. Where the hell is he? He looked around the room for a moment, then his eyes landed on a familiar shape under the covers. Eugene was lying next to him, NEXT TO HIM IN BED. This is a bad sign. Wait a minute, what did they do at that party...? Did they...no, they can't, they wouldn't do that, right? OH SHIT. FUCK.
Plankton slid out of bed as quickly as he could, trying not to wake the man sleeping next to him. His legs hurt like hell.
"Damn it, Krabs, what have you done to me?"
Sheldon quickly reached for his clothes and began to put them on, somewhat haphazardly. Just as he was about to put on his shirt, he heard the bed creak. He slowly turned around and saw Eugene sitting on the bed looking at him in shock. Plankton swallowed with stress. Damn, what now?
"Eugene I-"
"Plankton."
"Listen I- I didn't do anything! I don't even remember what happened! I just remember... drinking and that's it. I just- uh..."
"Did we...?"
"...Yeah, I think so..."
Neither of them said anything for a long moment, probably trying to gather their thoughts and come to terms with the fact that they had recently had sex...Former friends now enemies...sex. Dear Neptune why...
"Are ye alright?"
Plankton heard Krabs say. Sheldon looks back at him awkwardly and a bit surprised that he's asking.
"Uh...Yea why?"
"You don't seem to be....did....did I do that?"
He asked, his face turning red. Plankton blushes as well.
"...I don't know."
How does this impact their future? They can't go back to hating each other and fighting! Not after this...They both sat on opposite sides of the bed as far apart as possible. Damnit Plankton should go right now, But as he abruptly stands up, he feels a strong grip on his hand. He looks behind him and sees Eugene with a desperate expression on his face.
"If ye walk out that door, we'll have to pretend this never happened. And... I-I don't think I can do that..."
Plankton didn't know what to say. What should he do now: stay or go? He would like to run away from it all at this moment, but when I look at the man holding his hand, it seems very difficult. He looks away at the door.
"..."
"Can we just call a ceasefire until morning?"
"..."
"Please, Sheldon?
"Sure..."
He steps back and then sits on the bed and Mr. Krabs immediately takes his hand back.They sit there in silence for a long time, in the meantime Krabs put his clothes back on, neither of them knows what to say and the awkward situation is very stressful for them. Finally Mr. Krabs speaks out.
"Plankton I... I miss you, you know...?"
Sheldon suddenly turns his head towards Eugene. He didn't expect to hear those words.
"No you don't..."
"Yes I do. If I could go back to how things were. I would..."
"..."
Plankton's couldn't help but think about the past and their friendship and how it got destroyed. The very memory causes him pain.
"Can we just stop? Please....I can't keep pretending I want us to hate each other..."
"Pretending?"
Did he hear that correctly?
"Ye think I want to keep hating you? You're the only person on my mind first thing in the morning...and not because I worry that you might steal the formula but because I...I can't help but care about you. Even after what happened between us, I can't stop..... loving you..."
"W-woah Krabs wait you don't know what you're talking about."
Plankton was terrified because he felt the same way... But he tried to ignore those feelings because he was afraid to go back to how things were between them before.
"Listen to me Sheldon! Do you want me to spell it out for you or what? I LOVE YOU! I always have! I was just such...an idiot and I thought I hated you but I never did..."
Sheldon could hear his own heartbeat, it was beating so hard. What should he say? "Yes, I love you too, even though we've been fighting for so many years"? Dear Neptune...
"..."
He could feel the man move closer to him and then he felt his hand on his, which then he gently squeezed.
"Please just say something Shelly..."
That nickname made his walls crack. He closes his eyes tight scared of opening up about his feelings.
"Okay! The "stealing the formula" shit? I’m doing all of this to get your attention! I miss you like hell and it pisses me off! I hate the rivalry, Eugene. I hate every single day we spend on hating each other... Fuck! I regret every time I tried to hurt you...I was just angry..."
"So do I... I'm sorry for everything... I'm sorry Sheldon."
He says as he leans in to hug the other man. He wraps his arms around Sheldon tenderly, ,Eugene placed his face between Sheldon's neck and shoulder. This movement causes Plankton to shed a few tears. Freaking...Krabs always brings him to his worst. Plankton puts his hand on Krabs's back holding back tears, he doesn't want to sob in front of him.
"It's gonna be hard just forgetting about all the fucked up stuff we did to each other..."
Plankton's eyes water even more as he says that.
"That's true...But this isn't about forgetting, this is about a new beginning, and I want it with ye."
Plankton smirks a bit through tears.
"Hell...why not."
