King

Nightmare sighed as he leaned and slumped back to his chair. Finally, he's finished with his paperworks for the day.

Glancing at the clock, he finds out that he actually now has free time to spend with Error. "My lo-" Just as Nightmare was about to turn to where the glitchy skeleton usually hangs by and call for Error, he remembered that he made Error leave a few days ago, and the destroyer hasn't returned yet.

"He's probably with Ink again" Nightmare muttered and was about to sit back on his chair when suddenly, a portal opened and he was yanked through it by strings; holding him tight yet not hurting.

"What is the meaning of this?! Error?!" Nightmare exclaimed as he landed on something soft, finding out that it's his bed and that he's in his bedroom.

Soft fizzing and buzzing of glitches to his right made him turn to see Error standing there, holding a tray of Nightmare's favorite tea and crackers, as well as a new book Nightmare's slightly interested to check out.

"Hi, Night. Sorry that was sudden" the glitchy skeleton said as he placed the tray by Nightmare's lap.

"My lo- Error, what is the meaning of this?" Nightmare asked, looking at his mate.

Error fidgeted with a string on both hands, looking away apologetically. "I wanna get back to you and say sorry for making you feel bad" the glitch said.

Nightmare frowned and lifted a non-existent eyebrow, "Is this about Ink?" he sighed, putting the tray to the side, "I told you, we'll talk about it someday but I think not today" he said.

"I'm not exchanging you for Ink"

This got Nightmare to halt in his actions, mid way on leaving the comfortable confines of his bed.

When the goopy skeleton seemed to stop any actions to leave the bed or to leave him in general, Error continued, "Ink has been jealous and has been making ways to make me spend less time with you. I'm sorry for letting that get to you, but I promise it's not gonna happen again" Error said, his mis-matched eyelights coming in contact with Nightmares'.

"Please, Night, lemme get back to you. Let me spoil you and treat you like a king" Error pleaded and Nightmare, after a few minutes, sighed and nodded.

"Alright, my love" and for once after days upon not seeing each other, Error saw his king smile at him again, making him smile back in return.
