The Mind Electric (A Chester X Parker fic)

Chapter 28: 505

The car was parked near the same wooded area where Narc originally found the bones.

"Why are we back here again?" Parker asks, opening the trunk.

"Becauseeee! WE RANNN outtaaa time to bury the boness, remember?" Narc smiles.

"Huh, I thought we were just going to bury them in my backyard like last time?"

Narc grabs the shovel from the trunk and dashes into the beginning of the woods. "GoOp peoplee don'T like being BURIEDDDD IN THEE SAME SPOTT OveR and over!" Narc exclaims from afar.

That's understandable, he would be upset too if his bones were buried in the same place as another random guy.

Narc got to digging rather quickly this time, knowing that it will take a while getting back to the house. They chose a spot next to a rather large rock, still very much surrounded by trees.

It was silent for the next few minutes, all Parker could hear was Narc huffing along as they dug deeper into the ground.

"Sooo....did you wake up okay...?" Parker mentally slaps himself for asking such a stupid question.

"InDEED! It Wasss strange tonight, thouGH! I wokE UPPP tangled NEXTTT tooo you!" Narc laughs.

Both eyebrows rise quickly, not expecting that to be their answer.

"Oh? I thought Chester went back to his room...." Parker mumbles, leaning his back against a tree.

"Heeee DID! He justtt gOt lonely!" They exclaim, looking up at Parker.

Parker felt his heart skip a beat, along with his face heating up. That's going to be super noticeable considering it's colder than balls outside.

"Uh HUH! Heee curled UPPP next to YOUUU and EVERythingg!" Narc giggles, continuing to dig.

"Huh...that's cute." Parker smirks, looking elsewhere.

"YeaH, bUt youuu people cuDDLE WEIRRDD!" Narc gags.

Parker looks back at Narc with a confused expression. "What do you mean?"

"DOES HIS HIPPPSS ALwayysss move around?" Narc curiously asks, attempting to raise their own eyebrow.

Parker chokes on his own spit, coughing violently. "W-WHAT?" he barley yells out.

"YeaH! Heeee wasss movinG tHem for a MINUTE! PerhapS heee wass juSt adjusting hImself!" Narc theorizes innocently.

(That little shithead thinks he can ground me from being close to him...just to take his words back an hour later?!) Parker huffs, gritting his teeth.

Narc hops out of the hole, throwing the bones in. "AlrIght! BurYing shOuld bE noT too hard!" Narc laughs, throwing the dirt back in.

They turn their head, examining Parker's lost in thought expression, along with a twitch in his eye.

"PaRker? YoU seem madd..." Narc frowns, continuing to fling dirt back into the hole.

"M' fine..." he mumbles back, tapping his foot anxiously on the ground.

Narc just shrugs, turning their head back around. "WaS the HiP thinnggg bad? I apologize FOrrr bringing ittt UP!"

Parker looks up at Narc, "No, no, your fine, no need to apologize. The hip thing isn't...bad." He awkwardly smiles.

"Ah, GOOD! I don'TTT knowww much aboUt humAn relationship tHingS, sO I haD noooo idea!" Narc laughs, almost done burying the bones.

Thank god, otherwise they would probably be too freaked out to even TALK to Parker....

They got back into the car at a reasonable time, they actually had about four hours to spare. The ride home was rather peaceful, too....except for Narc's sudden questions.
