Troubled pasts (a Horrorlust story)

The truth

A/N contains mentions of suicide

Horrors POV
I rushed out of lusts room and went back to mine, it was my shift but Dave doesn't care what I do, as long as I don't interfere. I sat on my bed thinking about the past events that led to this, if I had just kept my mouth shut this wouldn't have happened, now that he's probably aware that I know about his past he's gonna run away to someplace else, the thought of him leaving made me sad, but why, why do I not want him to go, I used to be scared of him but now I want to be near him any chance I get, what is wrong with me, why do I get this feeling of emptiness when he's not here?!

I screamed into my pillow, hoping that would at least relieve some of my stress, but it didn't, I didn't know what to do, I felt like everything was falling apart. I couldn't handle all these emotions hitting me all at once, but then something happened, I felt like I was shutting down.

Lusts POV
As I stepped out of my bedroom and adjusted my new glasses I felt nothing but fear, and it got worse with every step, when I made it to the second floor I felt like my soul was about to jump out of my chest, I saw the door to horrors bedroom, I started to sweat as I got closer, when I was right in front of the door, I was a shivering mess, but there was no turning back now, I put my hand on the door, took a deep breath, and walked in.

Third person POV
Lust walked in and saw horror under the covers, "um...horror can I talk to you?" Horror looked up and turned away from lust "g-go away" lust initially felt hurt by this gesture, but was concerned after he heard quiet sobs, he slowly walked up to horrors bed. "Horror? Are you okay?" "I-I'm fine...just leave...please" lust slowly pulled the covers down and saw horror with tears down his face, his cheeks wet from crying "horror just tell me what's wrong" horror didn't respond, lust sighed in defeat and began to leave until -"wait" lust stepped back in "yes?" Horror opened up a secret door with a ladder inside, "c'mon" horror climbed up, closely followed by lust.

When horror made it to the top he reached out for lusts hand, lust grabbed it and was yanked up, he was embarrassed by how light he was, like he could be tossed around like an object. "Here" horror placed him on the roof "why are we on the roof?" Horror closed the hatch leading to his bedroom "one, so Dave doesn't hear us. And two, look up" lust lifted his head and saw the night sky, the stars shined all around them, while the moon shined at them like a spotlight, lust had never felt more awed in his life, his jaw dropped as he watched the environment around him "heh, I knew you'd like it" "it's beautiful" they sat next to each other, occasionally checking to see if the other had fallen asleep. "You're wearing the glasses I gave you" lust fiddled with them "yeah, they're nice" they went back to uncomfortable silence.

"Hey, can I say something" lust turned his head with curiosity to show that he was listening "I...may or may not have...known about a bit of your past" lust froze up in shock "I...I...I knew it!" "Look I-I'm sorry but I had no choice" "so you thought it would be good to dig up dirt on me?!" "Dave demanded me to do it! Trust me I wouldn't have done it if I didn't have to" "yeah that really softens the blow doesn't it" lust turns away and pouts "hey c'mon don't be like that" horror tried to put his hand on lusts shoulder but he bats it off "...did you tell anyone?" "No absolutely not" lust slowly turns back around "well...how much do you know" "well...you worked at the Pink Nest, you were a dancer and apparently you died three weeks ago" lust gave a small sigh of relief "I'm guessing you got that from the news?" Horror raised a brow bone, he was right. "Um yeah how did you know?" Lust scoffed, as if the answer was obvious "the news cover things up all the time" lust turned back around and shuffled back to horror "why do you want to know what happened anyway?" Horror knew his answer "because that place looked so good and fun, and a lot better than here, why'd you give it up?" Lust looked down in shame
