---The Next Morning---

Y/n woke up in Copia's arms, his favorite plush blanket around both of their nude bodies.

He didn't remember doing that...

Syke has apparently called off the bed, judging by the face xey were face down on the floor and looked dead.

All of the ghouls we're in random places on the floor, jutty underneath Syke somehow, cirrus asleep on cumulus' thighs, mountain sprawled out face down with water spooning his side, alpha was curled up in a ball next to the dresser, aether was probably asleep in the bathtub, Omega was on his side behind the door, and fire was sticking out from under the bed-

"What the fuck happened last night...?" Y/n said, sitting up and looking around.

Copia slowly woke up, wiping the eye picked from the corners of his eyes. "Hm..? You okay..?" The man said, putting a hand on y/ns shoulder.

"What happened...? I don't remember any of this happening... I just remember rushed foot steps up to my room after we fucked, Syke's worried and concerned expression, incomprehensible words, and blacking out." Y/n said, reaching down to pull his oversized shirt out from under swiss and Syke.

"Someone came over last night, their name started with a D and ended with an N... I probably shouldn't say their name considering the extreme mental breakdown and panic attack you had last night when Syke said it..." Copia said, grabbing his pants and shirt off of the headboard.

"W-What..? D-.... Don?!" Y/n said, eyes widening in fear.

"Yes, but, hey, hey, don't panic," Copia started, quickly hugging y/n into his exposed chest and gently combing his fingers though the smaller's hair. "it's okay, you're okay, don't worry about anything," Copia looked deeply into y/ns eyes, cupping  the smaller's face with slightly callused hands. "it's okay, everything is going to be okay," Copia planted a soft kiss to y/ns lips, running his fingers through the queer's hair before pulling away and looking into y/ns eyes reassuringly. "Syke, aether, me, and jutty beat the shit out of me as soon as you broke down. Alpha, Omega, and mountain recorded while the others tried to calm you down best they could." Copia said, smiling and looking reassuringly into y/ns eyes.

"Thank you, Cardinal... Really, I appreciate it... He was a terrible person. I regret ever falling for him... Mofo has a shit ton of audacity to show up here.... What did he even want...?" Y/n asked, lying his head on Copia's chest.

"I don't know, something about wanting to apologize and start over." Copia said, smiling to y/n and hugging him.

"Mmm.... He's crazy I'd he thinks he has a chance... Talking a girl into eating him out... Dating my girlfriend a week after me, her, and him broke up... Guilt tripping me into feeling like a piece of shit and getting mad at me after finding out I've... Hurt myself... Lying about getting raped and being best friends with the girl who 'raped' him... Purposefully misgendering me and gaslighting me... So much more.... He was a whore and cheated on my now ex girlfriend when they were together for four years, even got in a poly relationship with the girl he cheated on his girlfriend with and another girl just to have sex. He's a slut." Y/n said, hugging Copia tightly as he vented.

"Oh, darling... You deserved none of that! I'm glad we beat his ass. Everything you've been through... Oh my... All of that sounds terrible, love..." Copia said, rubbing reassuring circles into the back of his lover.

Y/n hummed, sitting in Copia's lap and arms, slowly drifting to sleep again as the comfortable and comforting man held him.

"Ayo?-" a voice came from the connecting bathroom. Aether.

"Huh?-" Copia said, pulling his head from the cease of y/ns neck and looking towards the bathroom door.

"Y'all ain't gonna fuck again, right? That shit was traumatic. Anyways, I've been up for like- an hour? Would y'all be good with me making breakfast even though it's 2pm?" Aether asked, running his fingers through his hair as he walked towards jutty and Syke.

"I don't mind, just make sure to clean up after yourself, dishes suck to do." Y/n said turning around to look at aether.

"OH- HOLY SHIT- Are you okay?! Your lip is busted and you have a black eye!" Y/n said, immediately getting up, accidentally stepping on Syke's ankle as he walked towards aether.

"Yeah, if you think this is bad you should see Syke... He went in first and got the worst of it. We do have it on video though." Aether said, motioning towards the male on the ground who jolted up at the weight on his ankle.

"Syke? You good bro?-"

"Yeah... Maybe. I might have to go get this checked out, though." Syke said as he sat up, ignoring the fact that jutty was beneath him.

Y/n gasped as he saw his friend's face. Crooked nose, piercings torn out by force, bruised almost everywhere, a bite mark on his side (he likes to wear crop tops) and dried blood around probably too many cuts.

"Kid must've started working out or something. Last time we fought I knocked him out easy." Syke said, getting off of jutty, who gasped for air as the weight was lifted off of him.

Jutty had the least wounds, a torn pant leg and a few scrapes, but other than that, fine.

"Why did y'all fight...? I mean, I can understand Syke, but... Why you, Copia, and jutty?" Y/n asked aether before he left the room.

"You make the Cardinal happy, and with him being famous an all, that's rare. He's family, so anyone he loves is family. No matter what... I mean unless you kill him or us or sum. Anyways, I'ma go make breakfast." Aether said, smiling as he walked out.
