{Cursed Eyes}

||Time Period: Before Disc War||

Wilbur's POV~

After I finished up the walls, I went down to get the paperwork. . .
I knock on Eret's door,"Enter!", I open the door to see him laying on his bed,"Hey, Eret, I just wanted to talk to you about something, is that alright?", he nods and sits up while fixing his sun glasses. . .

As I talked Eret through the paperwork and Eret signing it and asking something about the paper. . . I kept looking at his sunglasses, it was always frustrated me that Eret never showed his eyes, the sunglasses completely hides his eyes and, usually sunglasses can allow you to see little of their eyes but, Eret's were literally blacked out.

"Eret? Can I ask you something?"

He smiled nods,"Sure, what's up?", I pointed to his sunglasses,"Why do you always wear those sunglasses?? I mean. . .", he was silent, he tapped the pen against the pages,"Uh. . . I don't. . . Really feel uncomfortable with my eyes. . .", I frown,"Why?", he didn't answer, he only adjusted his glasses again, I leaned closer,"Can I see? Your eyes I mean.", Eret chuckled nervously and edges away slightly,"Heh. . . Heh. . . U-Uh how about, n-no?", I frown,"You hiding something?", as I leaned closer and I could hear his breath get more quick, like he was getting anxious. . .

"Eret. Let me see."

"Hell, no!"

And, in that moment I just tackled Eret to the ground, trying to get his glasses off his face,"LET ME SEE!!", "WILBUR, GET OFF!!", "NO!!", how did it get to this??? Probably my fault---. . .

Tommy's POV~

Fundy and I were drinking some soda, Tubbo was aying with his bees and Niki was planting some roses in a flower bed. . .

"OW! NOT MY HAIR, WILBUR!!", "TAKE 'IM OFF!!!", we all jumped at the sound of yelling, Niki sighed,"What is he doing?", U shrug,"Let's go see what brother Will is doing!", with that me, Fundy, Niki and Tubbo went to investigate why Wilbur and Eret were yelling. . .

We approached the door and Niki slowly opened the door and we were met with a very strange scene that somehow didn't surprise me in the slightest. . .

Wilbur had Eret pinned to the ground,"What is this, Wilbur??", they both immediately stopped and looked at us,"Uuuuuhhhh. . .", Niki shook her head,"D-Dad, why are you attacking Eret?", "I-Uh.  . .?", I sighed, "Can you two, like get off each other??", soon Fundy and Niki got both Eret and Wilbur untangled from the wrestle they got into. . .
"So, is this about Eret and his sunglasses, be honest Wilbur.", he groaned like a kid,"Yes. . .", Tubbo shrugged,"I mean, it is a good question to be curious about. But that the same time, we must respect everyone's privacy, including Eret.", Eret nods and fixes his glasses again,"Yes, please do. I'll show you all my eyes when I know you all are ready.", Wilbur grumbled and folded his arms like a child, and he said I was the child,"Fine. . .!!", Fundy smiled and Niki clapped,"Yay~! Everyone being friends!", Tubbo then threw his arms up,"YAY, FRIENDSHIP!!!", but then he accidentally backhanded Eret in the face,"OW!!", "Oh, shit--SORRY!!", Eret stumbled back holding his face,"WTF!!? I thought you said friends!", Wilbur Burst out laughing, I laughed too, then I realised his sunglasses were gone--. . . Oh, shit.
Eret removed his hands from his face but had his eyes completely shut,"Tubbo. . . Guys, where the heck did my glasses fall?", we all looked around the room, Wilbur looked under the bed and froze,"Uh. . . Eret? What is the chances it fell down the hole??", he ducked under the bed and sighed heavily, "O-OK. . . Can you guys, leave so I can. . . Get them?", Niki nods,"Of course, guys let's leave. . .", Niki shooed all if us out. . .

Fundy's POV~

After Niki got us out, I look back at Eret and I noticed he was shaking, I look back and made sure the others were walking away. I walked back to Eret's room and closed the door behind me. . .

"Eret?", he inhaled sharply but he didn't turn around,"F-Fundy?", I nod,"Yeah, I know you won't turn around. But, I couldn't help but notice you were shaking a little. . . Are those sunglasses special to you??", he shook his head and he raised his hand and seemed to be rubbing his eyes,"T-Those. . . Those hid. . . My eyes. . .", I frown, slightly concern,"Eret. . . Your voice is shaking. . .", he pulled himself up from under the bed and just covered his face with his hands, "I-I. . . T-The glasses. . .", I sat down on the floor and hugged him from behind,"You can tell me. . . Are you ashamed of your eyes. . .?", he stiffened, he was afraid. . . He was afraid that I'll see his eyes, I close my eyes as I hug him. . .

"My eyes. . . Anyone. . . That has ever seen them, they called me. . . A monster. . . A kid even screamed and ran away, thinking I was a monster. . ."

I was shocked, how could people be so cruel. . . Kids are understandable, but adults? I closed my eyes and repositioned Eret so he could hide his eyes in my shoulder. . . I felt tears hit my shoulder, people need to remember words hurt more than they actually think. . .
"Eret. . . Do you believe your eyes are a curse. . .?", he nods,"The thought has crossed my mind. . .", I nod and rubbed circles in his back to calm him,"I'm sorry, Fundy. . .","Don't be Eret. . .", he took deep breaths, I let him go, he pulled himself out of my hug but kept his eyes close as he rubbed and wiped away the tears. . .

"Eret? Can you. . . Open your eyes for me?"

Eret was silent, he looked away,"You'll be like the rest of them. . . Scream and call me a monster. . .", I smiled gently, I moved his face to be facing me, his eyes were still shut but, I ran my hand through his hair, his hair was honestly really soft,"I promise Eret. . . I won't. . .", Eret groaned in uncertainty. . .

Eret's POV~

Fundy had wide eyes. . .

Were they really that bad??
Did I scare him???

"I-I'm sorry, I'll cover--", "No, Eret, your eyes are beautiful!!", I was shocked, he hedl my face and was smiling so much,"I've never seen anyone with eyes like this, you have beautiful white eyes Eret!!", I slowly went from shock to happiness, I hugged Fundy,"Thank you. . .!! You're the first to ever say something like that about my eyes. . .", Fundy hugged back and pat me on the back. . .

After Fundy helped me get my sunglasses back and I put them on, we left and went to find the others, but I made him promise not to say anything about my eyes and he promised. . .
