Bullied Little Hipster

Chapter 5: Waking up

1 Month Later

Sollux's POV

Still no sign of Eridan waking up and it's been a month already. Throughout these past few days I've been reflecting on my actions. If I hadn't pushed Eridan over the edge then maybe he'd be awake right now. Of course if he'd been awake I wouldn't be feeling remorse for my actions, I'd still be bullying him. I snorted bitterly.

I holed myself in my room, both my dad and Mituna have been trying to get me out,but it was no use. I'm only eating small portions of my food and I look so skinny that a dead person would be jealous. I'm nothing but skin and bones now. I haven't bathed in 4 days,my room is full of trash, basically I'm the mere epitome of shit right now.

Not even Karkat could coax me out of my room. Throughout the time I've been acting like a hermit, I've actually been thinking about Eridan. Before I thought Eridan to be a complete and total loser, but now when I think of him he's kinda cute. That luscious looking blond hair looks so fluffy. His beautiful bluish-purple eyes that sparkle like gems. His cute button like nose and cute lips. It's not like I like him or anything like that,just pointing it out.

These past few days have been making me think on my sexuality. At first I thought I was straight, but now I'm beginning to think I'm gay.

Besides the point the doctors say that Eridan is due to wake up soon, so they'll call me when he's showing signs of waking. Damn I feel bad. Sigh.

Before I could wallow in self-pity some more the phone rang.

Eridan's POV

Darkness. That was all I could see. How long have I been here? Am I dead?

This is all his fault. I'm probably dead and Feferi's probably crying because of him.

Wake....Eridan!

Who's that? Who's calling my name?

Come....Eridan...Up!

Feferi? Feferi is that you?!

Get....Ampora.

What's Captor doing here?

My eyes were struggling to open. They felt as heavy as lead.

You...do...Eridan!

I'm trying!

GET UP ALREADY ERIDAN!

Sollux? Why is he here?

YOU HEAR ME AMPORA?! GET UP! ....I need you here.

Sol?

Normal POV

Eridan's eyes were struggling to open. Everyone was watching in anticipation, when Eridan's eyes fluttered open.

"Huh?"
