Torn (Shadow x Reader)

Ch. 5

Slept like 11 hours.
Felt great for a while, but then began to crash and now I want to sleep for 22 hours LOLOL.
But first I want to empty the fridge.
I want... borgor...
Probably can't get that, so I'll settle for something else.
It's too late to cook lol.

I wonder when we'll see daddy Mephiles.
He must be f u m i n g lol.
If not now, then he definitely will be soon 👀

Tired Austere out.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You spent much of your free time drawing when you weren't cooking or cleaning.

Drawing was just one of the things you did the most back home, given it was either that, reading or writing.

You didn't really miss it.

You were never short on art supplies back home, but there was way more to choose from here!

You'd never seen 'alcohol markers' before, but you were fascinated.

You remember asking Rouge 'what, like whiskey?' concerning the alcohol part, which she laughed at, amused.

She explained it was rubbing alcohol, not drinking alcohol, and fascinated, you bought some.

Just to start out.

You watched a few videos on how to use them, and you eagerly began trying them out, starting off with swatching, and getting a feel for the marker.

They were certainly interesting to use.

It'd take some time to get used to it, but you had faith you'd be able to do it!

Dinner time eventually began to creep up on you, and you stopped for the time being to prepare the meal.

You went to bed that night, having completed a simple drawing, using the markers you'd bought.

At some point, you'd love to draw Rouge.

And Shadow too!

They were your closest friends here.

You'd always been kind of a lonely child.

There wasn't really anyone other than your parents back home, and while they both tended to your every need, you'd always longed for a friend.

And now you had not one, but two!

Yeah, you weren't leaving this place any time soon.

Hehe.

The next morning, Rouge seemed to be in a better mood than usual, humming to herself.

Upon seeing you, she spoke with a cheerful tone to her voice.

"Oh, hun! Good morning." She said, pouring her coffee.

"Good morning. You're in a good mood." You replied, beginning to make breakfast for the two of you.

"My boyfriend's coming home from his vacation, so of course I am!" Wait, boyfriend?

Shadow wasn't her boyfriend?

You looked to her, clearly wanting her to continue, which she did so, happily.

"Sorry I haven't talked about him. The opportunity just never came up, I guess." Fishing out her phone, she scrolled through it for a moment, before showing you a picture.
