Wrapped in the Coils of Love

Chapter 6- Forgiveness

ROBERT'S P.O.V.

It's been almost a full day since Ivy and I took a walk through the forest, and I keep finding myself replaying the events that happened between Ivy and those Squirtle's.

I can't believe she killed three of them so easily.

It's scary, and concerning.

She could easily do the same thing to me if she really wanted to.

I'm pretty sure Ivy can sense my unease from what she did, because she's been keeping her distance from me.

I get that she cares about me, which is why she's giving me my space, but that still doesn't mean that she wouldn't harm me.

I sigh as I lay on my bed, playing a video game called: Limbo.

I can't see her, but I can sense that Ivy is staring at me.

IVY'S P.O.V.

I watch him from behind his dresser.

I'm pretty sure he knows that I'm watching him, but he's choosing to ignore me.

I feel bad for him.

I think I might've ruined our entire relationship because of what I did to those three Squirtle's.

'If I would've know that this was gonna happen, I wouldn't have killed those stupid Squirtle's.', I think.

At least he doesn't hate me, so that's a positive.

I look down at the floor, debating on whether or not I should go over to him and try to comfort him.

I decide to go over to him.

I walk over to him, and he looks over at me.

"Hey Ivy.", he says, his voice sounding tired.

"Hi Robert.", I say.

He and I stare at each other for a few seconds before he pats a spot next to him on his bed.

I smile at him, and hop up onto his bed, crawling over to his left side.

I curl up next to him.

Robert pauses his game, and starts to pet me.

I purr happily as he pets me.

Robert smiles at me a little, and keeps petting me.

"I forgive you Ivy.", Robert whispers.

I smile even more, and purr louder.

I'm so relieved that he's forgiven me for what I did to those Squirtle's.

'Maybe things will be okay between us after all.', I think.
