~Pump's POV~

I sat on my makeshift bed which was simply just pillows. My family didn't have much money so we had to make due with what we had. I don't really mind though because we were happy anyway I hummed a soft little tune smiling to myself and I took off my pumpkin mask then grabbed a comb and tried to get rid of all the knots in my hair but as expected nothing happened so I simply gave up put the comb back down and went downstairs "Mom, when are we getting food?" I asked, she looked at me and shook her head. "In a few hours so please be patient," She sighed and picked up a book and she started reading. I go to my room and start to draw on a piece of paper. It was just a drawing of me and Skid nothing more nothing less. I sigh and curl myself in a ball waiting for food 'I'm hungry very hungry' I thought to myself but simply just sigh and decide to take a nap while I wait for food.

~epic time skip brought to you by my gayness~

I woke up to the smell of chicken. I love chicken, especially the skin on the chicken.I stand up and walk to the kitchen "Is it done?" I impatiently asked, I was starving. "Yes it's done, you may eat now," She smiled.

~another time skip bc I'm not gonna describe Pump consuming food- just no~

I sat down on the hill staring at the sky. Skid had to go with his mom to do something, leaving me alone. The sun was starting to set and I heard the soft sound of footsteps behind me and before I could even turn around Skid hugged me. "So turns out I have some time to play with you," Skid beamed, smiling like he just won the lottery or something. "Actually I just want to watch the sun set again if that's ok," I looked over at Skid and smiled. "Of course!" He plopped onto the grass beside me and he took out a hairbrush. "If I stay here you have to let me brush your hair, it's always a mess," Skid pouted in a fake way. "Alright that's fine with me," I smiled, "you'll never get rid of the rat nest in my hair though it will never leave!" I laughed as did Skid. It was adorable in a way. "So what did you and your mom do?" I asked not sure if I even should. He looked at me with an expression that said he didn't want to talk about it so I didn't ask again. He actually managed to get all of the knots out of my hair. I smiled and rested my head on his shoulder. He looked confused but didn't do anything about it but just stared at the sun set as it set for the night 'if only he knew'. I closed my eyes, happy to be here in this very spot with Skid at my side.
