𝐋𝐎𝐕𝐄𝐃 ➶ (𝐬𝐚𝐥 𝐟𝐢𝐬𝐡𝐞𝐫)

I wake up, feeling the weight of something moving around on the bed. I sit up, and see Sal getting up and going towards his tray of glass eyes. He puts in the blue one he seems to usually use, and then puts his mask on. I just sit there, glancing at his daily routine.

" Did I wake you up? sorry." He says.

" No, it's fine." I say. His walkie talkie starts to produce Larry's voice.

" Sal. Come down to my apartment. Do you know where y/n is? She won't answer me."

" I'm here at Sal's apartment." I say

" What? You slept over at Sal's?" Larry asks.

" Yeah."

" Well, both of you come down then."

" Is it important?" Sal asks

" Not really. " Larry says.

" Well I have to go to Todd's place."

" Fine, Y/n come down."

" Okay, I'll be there soon." I respond. Larry disconnects and me and Sal leave the apartment. There's an awkward silence between us. I usually would've brewed up a conversation but I can't. I mean, I rarely crh in front of people but I cried in front of him last night. It's embarrassing.

" So, are you feeling better?" He asks as we both get into the elevator.

" Yeah, thanks for being there." I say.

" No problem."

" But could you not tell anyone that I was so scared? It's kind of embarrassing."

" Sure, as long as you don't tell anyone about the monstrosity under this mask." He says

" Sal, it's not a monstrosity, but yeah.. I'll keep it secret if you want."
