Part 1 The night of nights

(ok so basically the story goes from just chill to very adorable to pretty sad you have been warned also this progresses through the chapters)

~Pump's POV~

I sat outside at the park waiting for Skid. 'I want to tell him but I can't. I'm too scared. What if he hates me, what if he doesn't wanna spooky dance with me anymore, what if our friendship gets ruined?' I try to not to think about it and sigh and put on my pumpkin mask. I feel very self conscious all the time but I don't let that get to me. "AYEE HI PUMP!" Skid bound toward me smiling and he hugs me. I closed my eyes and I simply hugged back feeling safer and more at ease. "Hey..." I mumble. I don't like to talk too much. It's one of my flaws. I get too socially awkward but I had Skid and he was the only person I didn't feel super awkward around. I spoke too softly to be heard properly. The funny thing is I already forgot what I said so when Skid asked me what I said I simply told the truth "I completely forgot." He took my hand and wandered around. We explored everywhere else in this small town together except the park. I never knew why it was such a beautiful place and I think the view of the sun set is amazing when dusk comes around. I smile, completely forgetting about everything else but then someone showed itself in the back of my mind. 'He'll never love you back' I felt slightly saddened by this thought and simply compressed my feelings for Skid down. We sat on top of the little hill in the park as the sun began to set the pretty assortment of reds and blues and yellows dazzled Skid and his eyes seemed to sparkle. "Skid?" I looked at Skid and spoke quietly. He looked back still clearly fascinated by the sunset's colors. "Yeah?" His voice spoke softly but quite energetically at the exact same time. "What happens when we die?" I asked, looking down at the lush green grass. "We forget everything..." Skid looked back to the sunset which was now going out of view as night finally sunk in. "Everything," Skid repeated the last word as if it was something to hold onto for the rest of his life. "Even you?" I asked and stared into his blue eyes with slight sorrow. "Yes, even me," Skid stared back into my brown eyes. 'I do not want to die' I started to well up with tears and Skid pulled me into his embrace I smiled slightly. "We should go home now Lila is probably worried about you," I peel myself away from Skid unwillingly but I know he has to go back home. "Oh ok see you tomorrow them Pump?" Skid smiles at me and hugs me once more he stands up and goes back home and I well I went home as well.
