The Plan ( Y/N x monkey kid universe)

ACT XXIV:SWEET TEA

         You fell off of a bed and groaned quietly, you tried to stand up but immediately fell back down. You looked at your legs, they were covered in bandages and glowing in a pink hue, kind of like pretty boy's pink. You sighed and looked around, the memories of what happened had hit you, full on without mercy. There were multiple bandages on you, some from bleeding others from bruises, but they covered you. You had baggy clothes on so they didn't violate anything. You crawled towards a stack of clothes that were left for you with the help of railings that were there. You were tired and a bit delirious, and got the clothes half way then just laid where you were. You sighed and frowned at yourself. You knew you weren't forgiven, and you were safe from her, but you couldn't help but feel that the nightmares you had were their dreams.

         You wanted to see Red again, she'd understand what you're going through. Because despite what you did, what you have done, they still let you stay at their place. You rolled over and stared at the ceiling, half your upper body hanging out of your clothes. You reached up to your temple and softly smoothed the bandage that was there to take care of one of the many bruises you had because of LBD. it was all so... surreal. Like none of it was real. You were alone, it was so quiet, you needed someone there, to remind you that you weren't alone again. You sat upright and finished putting on your top. Slowly, you started to crawl your way out of the room, despite its almost unsettling silence, you opened the door to hear shouting.

       You kind of just slinked down, apparently you were in a truck. If they heard you, they showed no sign of it. It was just you, Tang and Pigsy. The two people you owe the most. You tried to get closer but it dragged your legs, making them hurt a little more. They weren't too bad and it wasn't permanent, but you still couldn't walk quite yet. You were lifted from your upper body by a familiar gentle giant's hands, Sandy. You just went limp, you could trust Sandy, he was the only one so far trying to make peace with you. He gently sat you on a rock near the fire and sat next to you, and offered a cup of your favorite tea. You tanked him quietly and drank your tea with him in comforting silence. You leaned against him and immediately felt comfort. He felt like a dad to you.

         "I'm.. sorry. For letting Huntsman hurt you and for hurting you all." he only smiled softly at you and said in a comforting tone you haven't heard in a while, "it's not your fault kid, you weren't yourself at all and we understand that. Most of us haven't forgiven you yet, but we understand what's happening and how it made you feel. We are a little hurt because it looked so much like you, but we knew it never was. And the others will forgive you, for now, you know that I do." These words brought you to tears, no one had comforted and assured you like this, it was always, "it'll be okay" and " we're here for you." but this time the words weren't in the slightest bit hollow, but full of care and understanding. You just cried into your tea and even though Sandy had finished his cup, he didn't once leave your side. But he continued to give you comfort and be kind.

          Even after all you've done, he still cared.
