Oneshot - The Bi Panic

Cross can admit, he doesn't exactly understand his preference.

He was never attracted to anyone in his whole life. Every time he saw someone being lovey-dovey or happy with their date-mate, he just looked on in curiosity. He never wanted anything close to a date-mate or spouse. He was fine where he was.

Then the collapse of his home happened.

Cross felt his own emotions spiral out of control while feeling CC floating idly around him. He didn't know how long he lived in his own white hell but then Ink showed up of which he hope alighted in his heart for his home. But it was dashed the more time passed as he saw the infamous X-Event start to unfold. CC kept him awake in their mind of which he could speculate the event while everyone fought around him.

Then Ink and Error fought. The Protector was against the very Destroyer but Cross couldn't feel anything bad for the destroyer. Error followed the rules, he never did anything against the truce unlike Ink, and only attacked them because he thought Ink was going against their truce. He may have an ego and a bit of a hypocrite but Cross could see that the other still held his integrity, unlike the soulless protector.

Cross found that attractive. He found someone for the first time attractive in his own eye sockets.

Error managed to get the vial away from Ink while knocking the soulless protector out for the count. Error seemed to look at the other with a blank face then turned towards CC. Pissed didn't begin to explain his expression of which the other walked up to them while a soul feel right by him. It was their soul.

"Listen, you abomination."

CC seemed to flinch as they stood straighter in front of Error while idly unclutching and clutching their hands. Cross could only look on from the space while seeing how attractive the destroyer was from up close. Cross shook his head as a blush rose on his cheekbones.

"I will give you your soul back but I will keep the vial. I know Ink enough that he will continue this stupid event if he got this vial. So, I'm willing to make a deal."

That perked both of them up as CC nodded after a few seconds. Cross noted that time seemed to freeze around them with no one moving one moment. Cross wondered how power Error truly was while also wondering the very mind of Error himself.

"I know how to keep the vial away, erase memories, and put new memories into others. Nobody will suspect a thing as I've done this shit for centuries. The multiverse has endless possibilities and I've seen some things in all of this."

They could only gape at the destroyer who looked calm and unbothered by what they said. Cross could feel a blush in his cheekbones again as he looked at the other.

"You can also get your world restored. But for a price, as there is no free solution, abomination."

Nobody said anything for the moment as CC looked at Error with wide eyes with Cross doing the same thing. CC motioned the continue as Error looked down at them blankly.

"I will erase the very notion of the X-Event while making everyone, including Core, believe the event was resolved from ever starting. You, Cross, and I will be the only ones remembering this as I don't want trouble and this was supposed to be my vacation in sense. The truce will start again for I and Ink as I truly don't want to destroy more than necessary. I still think all of you are glitches and abominations but even I know my limits. Of sorts. I can also get your world starting again but I will hide it from prying eyes, so, only you, Cross, and I will really know they all still exist. In exchange, I want you both to still be in Nightmare's gang while giving me information in secret. I'm an ally of the goop lord but nobody truly knows of what I can do for the time being. So, do we have a deal?"
