DISCONTINUED KILLERMARE STORY

Chapter 2: Love Sick

Killer POV

After the movie, I was a little excited but hid it so Nightmare wouldn't kill me. Actually, I got pretty scared during the movie and accidentally held Nightmare's hand. To my surprise he didn't care and held my hand back.

It kind of surprised me. I swear I could feel my soul flutter but of course,  I don't like boss, right?

"Killer!" Nightmare finally got my attention.

"Oh- Sorry boss." I laughed nervously.

"I was asking you if you wanted to go to eat someplace, I don't know about you but that popcorn just made me more hungry." Nightmare repeated.

"Well, you kind of ate it before the movie even started but I understand, sure." I was a little confused on why Nightmare was being so nice after his outburst.

I could tell Nightmare was thinking about something because he was doing that stare that seemed to look deep into your soul, before he'd snap out of it and somehow know what your emotions were.

Then just as I guessed, Nightmare snapped out of his trance and grabbed my hand before teleporting us to some fancy-looking restaurant. If I was actually really being honest now, it really seemed like we were going on a date.

And now that I REALLY thought about it too, I wouldn't mind going on a date with him or even dating him. My soul fluttered more before I came back to reality.

"Are you coming?" Nightmare asked.

"Yeah! Sorry," I apologized again with a small laugh and followed him.

The next day..

Nightmare POV

I had finally realized yesterday what Killer was feeling. Killer had a crush on me! Of all people, me. 

In the movies he held my hand, his soul filled with romantic feelings, he kept staring at me and zoning out. He was really in love, huh?

After considering what the mysterious person had said, I didn't HAVE to love the person I was dating, right? Now with Killer liking me, this might be easier than I thought.

I can tell he's unsure about liking me for the moment so for now I'll try to just be nicer to him and hangout with him as it seems to be getting his interest. 

After finding out a good plan, I got dressed and made breakfast for everyone. Normally, I fix the gang all the same thing expect for me but today I fixed Killer his favorite meal all by himself. Killer looked surprised once I set his food down and he noticed it wasn't the same as everyone else's.

"Hey! Why does Killer get his favorite?" Horror asked, obviously jealous.

"He was good yesterday." I replied calmly, despite him calling me soft yesterday.

I sat down with everyone and ate my own breakfast while occasionally taking long glimpses at Killer. I saw Dust whispering to Horror, trying to be out of earshot from me but failing.

"Boss has been a little off today.. I also saw Killer and him sneak out yesterday. What do you think is going on between those two?" Dust whispered.

"Dunno," Horror replied.

I glared at them and they stopped whispering.

I started being nicer to Killer that day and finally around noon I took Killer to a beautiful garden. I knew he would love there anyway.

"This place is gorgeous." Killer said looking around.

"Not as much as it is at night. That's when all the lights in the bushes and everywhere else light up, it makes this place ten times as beautiful." I replied with a soft smile.
