[F4F] The Wrong Kind of Attention (Dark Romance)
“Is it true?” Muse A’s friend whispered as they finished cleaning up for the night. “Is it true that you’re dating Muse B?” she questioned, which only made Muse A laugh as she placed the last chair on the table.
“Jeez… word travels fast, I see,” Muse A teased lightly as she moved over to the counter.
“But yes,” she smiled. “For almost a mon,”
“You have to break up!” her friend nearly screamed, startling Muse A.
“B-break up? Why?” she questioned, confused, but her friend only shook her head.
“Look, I don’t know a lot, but one thing I do know is that chick is bad news.” Her friend attempted to warn her, but Muse A only rolled her eyes.
“Yeah, yeah…” she muttered.
“No, Muse A, I’m serious. I heard she’s involved with some really messed up people. Like… wake-up in an ice bath kind of people.” Her friend tried once more to warn her, but Muse A wasn’t having it.
“Yeah, and I’m the Easter Bunny,” she joked, which only seemed to annoy her friend further. “Muse A! Will you listen to me? Okay? I’m trying to help you. I heard the last girl Muse B dated ended up,” her friend had started, but then the sound of the diner door shutting suddenly filled the air, causing both of them to turn toward it.
“Sorry to interrupt,” Muse B whispered as she walked over to Muse A.
A slight smile formed on her face as she kissed the top of her girlfriend’s head. “Just came to take you home… you know how dangerous it can be at night,” Muse B murmured, her eyes slowly shifting toward Muse A’s friend.
“People taking advantage of the darkness to do unspeakable things to others…” she added quietly, her gaze never leaving the friend.“Also, I’d be really careful with repeating things like that,” she said sweetly. “You never really know who’s listening.” And with that, Muse B guided Muse A out of the diner.

Hi! Thanks for taking the time to read my prompt!
For this story, I’d really like to explore the toxic, chaotic, and emotionally intense relationship between Muse A and Muse B.
My idea for Muse B is that just like the friend warned she works for some very shady people. Mafia-level shady. Meanwhile, Muse A is just a sweet girl working herself to the bone trying to make ends meet.
For the first month of their relationship, everything is perfect. Muse B is attentive, loving, protective basically everything Muse A could want. But then the possessiveness starts creeping in. She begins blowing up Muse A’s phone asking where she is, texting nonstop, starting arguments for no reason, getting jealous easily, and slowly isolating Muse A from the people around her.
I’d love to really dive into this dark dynamic and see where it takes us. I’m open to pretty much any direction or ending, whether it turns out good, tragic, or somewhere in between.
