Forever | Sodo x Reader

Stargazing

It was the night after playing werewolf. Dinner was over and most lights were off in the church except the one in Sodos room.

Cirrus, Sodo and I sat on the bed, my body leaned against his, as we played Super Mario on the Ghoulettes switch. Well- Sodo and Cirrus played and I just watched.

"I won!" The fire ghoul yelled and threw his hands in the air as his Luigi character drove past the finish line.

"Yeah and that's only because you threw the red turtle shells constantly at me, bitch" Cirrus said with a straight face and put the console on the mattress.

"Its only fair" Sodo hissed back. The ghoulette just sighed, knowing that it was no use arguing with him. Plus, she was probably too exhausted from the day to start a fight with anybody.

I leaned back, letting myself sink into the soft pillows that smelled exactly like Sodo. Tiredness overflowed my body, taking in every inch. The images of Liam and Eli, Luigi and the rest of my family popped up as soon as I closed my eyes. And knowing that I won't be able to see them for a longer time made this weird feeling of sadnesses spread.

Fuck I missed them already.

The thought of letting them go forever hit me like a punch in the head. What if i can no longer get out of here? What if Im stuck because Echo won't be found?

»don't think about that y/n, you're torturing yourself« I thought. It was rather easy to distract myself today but I guess thats because the realisation is hitting me just now.

"You okay?" Sodo asked as I covered my closed eyes with my arm.

"Yeah im fine. Just thinking" I spoke as softly as possible.

"About what?" he asked again and I felt Cirrus warning looks that she gave him.

"Family. My brothers, parents. Liam and Eli. If I will ever be able to see them again" I said and sat up, looking at my two friends.

"Even if only Eli and Liam would be here I'd be so much more enjoyable. But like this I do not know if I will ever hug them again. And Im afraid that yesterday was the last time I saw them. Family and friends"

I surprised myself by not breaking out into tears like I would normally do when I talk about this kinda stuff with Tony.

"Oh y/n" Cirrus sighed, sat down next to me and wrapped her arms around my body. "Everything is going to be fine, you'll see. From memory I know that she really isn't the smartest person, so-"

"She escaped prison, Cirrus. You can't say that she isn't smart. She also somehow found her way into my dreams and mind so I don't think she's dumb to be honest" I interrupted her and stared at the one glowing candle on Sodos desk.

"Maybe but she's not going to get us as long as we stay here. And sooner or later she will be caught by he police. Im 100 percent sure" she said.

A lie. I felt her nervousness in my fingertips.

"Yeah, maybe your right. Sooner or later" I breathed and looked over at Sodo who was silently sitting there, listening to the conversation.

"And about the part with Liam and Eli, maybe we can manage to bring them here. I could try and convince Papa and nonetheless it would still be safer for them since they hang out with you all the time and we don't know for how long Echo knows you, so there's a possibility that she has seen them together with you." Cirrus said and gently rubbed my back, comforting me.

"What about my family though? If that's so they're in danger too." I spoke and looked at her.

"I'll talk with him about that, I promi-" the ghoulette said but stopped mid sentence as a knock came from the door.
