Now, believe me, I’ve never been in a relationship before but I have HAD read my fair share of romance novels and I had gotten the point. But nothing I’ve ever read had shown this. Questions flew into my head like a hurricane and they all sounded crazy.

Grabbing my keys to unlock the door I found that my handle was quite scratched up and looked rather odd. Thinking nothing of it, I opened the door to my apartment and headed for the kitchen. Humming a random tune as I skipped to the kitchen, I reached for the kettle, turned it on, and proceeded to grab the ramen noodles. Grabbing a fork from the drawer behind me I slid across the floor and started to dance. I spun around a did the mic gesture to the noddles before shrugging and sliding over there. Thus then ripping it open and boiling it, I stabbed and ate its guts. Which were delicious.

Throwing the empty container away I flopped down onto my couch and randomly turned the tv onto something. About 30 minutes goes by when I noticed that the sun was starting to set. Rolling my eyes at what had become our new natural schedule, I closed the blinds and turned off all the lights. Blinking my eyes I looked around and thought of an idea I saw online often. Hearing the familiar footsteps behind me I turned around and smiled. Earning an amused scoff, he flopped down onto the couch. Grabbing my phone and sitting on the opposite end of him I showed him what I was thinking of buying.

He shrieked and jumped from his spot before hiding behind the couch and making a weird hissing sound. Rolling my eyes I leaned over the couch and showed it to him again. Hearing the shrieking again and watching him cower did make me smile but the fact that he thought that it was overpowering him made me smile wider.

“Look up you big baby. It's not even hurting you,” I teased. Slowly he looked up and checked himself to make sure I wasn’t lying before he cleared his throat. He had a tiny bit of blueish blush dusting his face.
He looked at me before shrugging his shoulders in acceptance. Grinning, I ordered the objects in hopeful glee! Throwing my phone onto the floor without care I laid down on the couch with my feet pointing to the ceiling and my head near the ground. Looking at Nightmare I blurted out the first thing that popped into my mind.

“Do you eat just my fear or do you go and eat others?”

He blinked at me in mild shock before looking outside of the window. He looked as though he was choosing his words carefully which made me puzzled.

“Well…I do eat others when it is needed, but as it seems, I’m enjoying yours a lot more recently.” Nightmare considered softly. Blinking up at him I smiled before leaning my head on the ground.

“Do you just like fear? Or do happy emotions suffice?” I murmured. He chuckled before leaning back. He laid down the same way I was with his feet in the air and his head touching the ground. Turning his head toward mine making our noses almost touch. His eyes widen before he looked back to the ceiling.

“Fear is the most enjoyable, happiness is like having paste in my mouth and sadness is too gooey. But, you know, love isn’t too bad.” He spoke in hushed tones, almost embarrassed. He wouldn’t make eye contact and would keep fiddling with his hands. Nodding my head I tried to get up but instead managed to fall into Nightmare, causing us both to fall to the ground. This would be the first time I wished I had fallen onto him because I knocked into him, twisted my back, and slammed my knee into my coffee table. Groaning in pain, I cradled my now bruised knee. Hearing winded gasps from my left I turned my head and saw Nightmare laying on his side holding one of his tentacles.

“Ouch Darling, no need to try and kill me.” He grinned painfully, facing me.

“I wasn’t trying to but my knee feels your pain.”

“Karma hurts. Quite literally doesn’t it?”

I slammed a fallen pillow into his head with a laugh. Pushing him away I got up and grabbed my phone before starting off to my bedroom. Tossing a goodnight towards him I shut my door.
