'. . Wings . .' [HORRORDUST]

Chapter 9

Dusts Pov

I handed Horror the cookies and we made our way back to my room

"What do you wanna do?" Horror asked, breaking the awkward silence between us. "....I don't really know..-" I sighed. 'This is so damn awkward, I want to dissappear.' I thought to myself. Horror spoke once again. "..Can I feel your wings?" I hesitantly nodded, not sure of my decision.

Horrors Pov

I put down my cookies and reached out my hand to pet dusts wings. And just to make it clear, they are as fluffy as they look, it felt like I was petting a...like really soft thing!

I looked back at Dust with a goofy smile on my face. He was turned around, a slight bit of blush of embarrassment on his cheeks.

"They feel nice!" Dust shrugged. "I take care of them" I thought for a moment. "Do you do a whole routine? Like wash them, dry them-" Dust cut me off "Well of course I do! You know how dirty they get, it feels and looks like sh*t if you don't clean them!"

I giggled at Dust as he went on a whole rant about keeping his wings clean.

Still Horrors Pov

Damn dust is really serious about cleaning his wings. I've been sitting here for almost an hour. Im running out of cookies too. Please someone save me..

And just like my prayers were answered killer burst through the door at full speed. Dusts head shot up and he groaned. "Killer your gonna break my door." Killer rolled his eyes, then he smirked. "Anyway" Killer continued "uh Nightmare says we should all do something together!"

"Yeah no." Dust replied immediately. "Why not?" I asked. "Everytime we're together you two do some dumb sh*t and get us in trouble" Dust scoffed, me and Killer grinned sheepishly. "Me and Horror promise to not do anything stupid, right Horror?" Killer said, elbowing my side. "Oh- Yeah!" I nodded along. "Fine but if you two do ANYTHING stupid I will not hesitate to kill a b*tch."

No ones Pov

The trio walked out of the castle after promising Nightmare they would stay near the castle. Killer was talking about a little surprise he had for them and Dust couldn't have been more paranoid, if Killer had a surprise for you it was not going to be good. Eventually Killer stopped infront of a picnic. "Here's the surprise!" Dust looked around for any traps or anything suspicious but he couldn't spot anything out of the ordinary, so he deemed it safe for now.

Horror and Killer were already sitting on the blanket eating the food by the time Dust sat beside them. Horror and Killer were already talking with eachother so Dust pulled out his glasses and book, he opened it and started to read.

Sometime later the trio got up and started to walk back to Nightmares Castle. They were about to reach the castle until. Killer got distracted by a cool looking bird, his mouth gaped open as he stared at the beautiful bird. He pulled Horror over to look at it, who also stared at it in awe.

Dust watched a small smile on his face as he watched his two friends inspect the poor bird, he stared at the bird closer, and at further inspection he made out the bird to be a hawk of some sort.

An idea popped into Dusts head, when Dust was younger he had learned most bird calls, he liked being friends with the winged creatures, so he called the bird over and smirked as the two others stared at him in shock.

(Here's what Dust looked like kinda, art done by me)

"What?! Dust how did you do that?!" Horror and Killer shouted, both of them were amazed. There was a light blush dusting Horrors cheeks as he stared at Dust and all his glory.

"I'm basically one of them so....." Dust started. "Thats so cool!" Horror blurted out. Dust stopped smirking and put on a soft smile. "Thanks" He replied. "I actually think I'll keep it as a companion" Killers eyes lit up. "You really should! Come on we need to get to Nightmare quick so he can approve of it!!!" And with that, Killer was off, sprinting to the castle. Dust and Horror looked at eachother and laughed before they both ran after Killer, Dusts new bird flew beside him as he ran, matching Dusts speed.
