Today or Tomorrow, But never Later. (Eyeless Jack x Ticci Toby)

Ch. 7

3rd POV

  The twitching male looked at the list, still silently chewing with his mask on. Eyeless waited patiently, sitting back on the recliner, simply staring at the roof. "C-Could we just d-do the t-t-tours?" Toby asked with a hushed voice, Eyeless nodded in return, this is for Toby to get used to the new surroundings after all. Meeting everyone may be the last thing the twitching male would want at the moment.

  After Toby finished eating what he picked through, he quietly stood beside the recliner that the eyeless male had been ever so silently sitting in all the while. Jacks face, though hidden behind the mask, rest peacefully as his eyelids appeared closed, that didn't last long due to a loud crack of Toby's neck as a tic involuntarily occurred.
  Eyeless jolted awake, hands immediately clasping onto Toby's head, sharp claws barely piercing skin. The room fell silent again, both males standing dead still as Eyeless came to realize the situation. He carefully released Toby's head, almost shrinking into himself, he felt a sudden pain because of the action as the twitching male remained still with an unreadable expression. "Sorry, we can start the tour now.", Toby nodded before another tic caused his head to jerk to the side.

Toby POV

I looked through the many breakfast food items on the plate, nothing really made me hungry. I poked things around until I saw a pancake, a familiar yet foreign warmth came to my mind. I slowly brought the warm, sweet, and soft food to mouth while trying to figure out why I like pancakes, was it a sad memory I forgot about? No, I know it wasn't sad, there was laughter, a smiling girl? but Who is she?
I stopped trying to recall the thought, it was getting me upset, not being able to remember so I finished the one pancake then get up to see what Jack was doing after I got my mask on. I was about to poke his arm but my tics caused my neck to crack, in mere milliseconds Jack was standing with my head in a strong grip. I think I scared him by the reaction, similar to a cat's reaction when scared. I didn't really know what to do so I waited til Eyeless was more awake and gently released my head, he looked and sounded really anxious while speaking, "Sorry, we can start the tour now." I nodded, trying to figure out why he acted in such manner with my eyes glued to the rug. That didn't last due to a tic, my head jerked to the side in an unsettling way.

3rd POV

  On edge, Eyeless stayed a few paces ahead of Toby while mapping out the mansion. He felt as though the voices would flare soon, nagging him on his simple reflexes. It was an honest mistake, a mere accident, and yet, it just fuels the chaotic demons in Jack's head. The staggering male noticed that Eyeless was keeping his head low, not only that, but Toby found it odd how he didn't explain what the heavy looking door marked with an eye and many locks was for, even when they walked past it multiple times.
