"a second chance, in another place" (bfb/ii crossover)

CHAPTER 15: truce

Nickel glared at me. His mechanical arms gripping on my shoulders, as he pushed me against the wall

"Your asking my why I'm here? I SHOULD BE ASKING YOU THAT!"

I pushed nickel's hand off me, he stumbled back a bit. I don't understand, why is he here?

"Besides, aren't you supposed to be at inanimate insanity?"

"Aren't you supposed to be cast away in a forest?"

"Actually I'm supposed to be dead, tried killing myself but fail and magically teleport in the bfb grounds"

.

"Taco wtf?"

"Well excuse me for wanting to be dead!"

I said that with drama in my voice, I crossed my  arms and looked away.
Nickel stared at me, dumbfounded.

"So tell me why your here? Shouldn't you be at inanimate insanity"

"Yes... No... Maybe... I forgot honestly. We already did the challenge and I always leave after 5 minutes during the break, always make it back on time"

"That explains bullshit"

"Ok ok! I joined bfdia during the first half of inanimate insanity 1, bfb and inanimate insanity ii started around the exact same time. Had a bit of trouble with that for awhile.
Then here we are, I am double tasking with tpot and ii3 now"

Damn, his been living a double life.

"Well, you're so much nicer here then at inanimate insanity"

"You don't know that"

"You hardly gave anyone complement, stuck around baseball for most of the game.
From my view, you two look like lovers"

"C'mon taco, you know me and him are only friends. Nothing more"

I stared at him dumbfounded, is he seriously that oblivious to baseball's feeling for him!
It's so obvious, I bet he's think about nickel right this instance.

"Your serious, right"

"Yeah, we're just friends alright"

"You fucking dumbass"

How did he not figure it out! He's literally with baseball 24/7!

"This is a pointless conversation, anyways. I'm going to expose you"

"You wouldn't... Would you?"

"They need to know the truth, I know alot about you"

You know nothing about me... You don't know my life, nickel.
I watched as he walked away. An evil grin appeared on my face. Oh nickel, you just exposed something about yourself to me.

"If you tell them about it, then I'll tell 'em about your double life"

He stopped in his tracks, he looked back at me.

"You wouldn't..."

"Oh, but I will. I wonder how they will react if they found out their friend was a sarcastic hypocrite"

He glared at me, he knew I had him corner like I was with my secret.

"Tell you what, I won't tell yours if you don't tell mine~"

I held out my hand to make this deal, official.

"Let's call it a... Truce"

He looked at my hand, then back at me. He grabbed my hand.
