Arriving at the pond, you take notice at how nice it is outside today. Deciding to take off Mountain's coat so as to not sweat, you set it down next to said ghoul on the flat boulder he was currently sat on.
"Oh my satans, I haven't been here in so long." It was quiet for a bit till you spoke again. "This used to be my favorite spot to go to. Whether I came here just to think or if I was upset that day, nothing could beat this."
Taking a second to think to himself and then reply. "Used to? Is it not anymore?"
Blush lightly staining your face, you hesitate to respond for a second. "No, I've um..I've found my forever spot. Well hopefully forever spot.." This confused the ghoul, but he sat silent not wanting to pressure you into speaking on it.
After a while you found yourself spread out next to Mountain on the boulder, your stomach facing downwards. Somehow managing to fall asleep, you woke up about half an hour later. Not knowing what was fully going on around you, not that you really cared anyways as Mountain was here with you-
Lifting your head off the makeshift pillow, which was just Mountain's coat all balled up, you started panicking that you couldn't find the tall ghoul. Had he really left you in the woods alone? Sure you know the path back, but he wouldn't do that would he? No no no, there's got to be a reason for him not being here.
Your breathing getting harsher, and soon the only thing you understood was that you were all alone and panicking. You hadn't had a panic attack as bad as this one in years, why was it flaring up so bad now? This ended up causing you to freak out even more.
Not noticing when this happened, but looking down at your hands you see a color of dark gray ash. Panicking more as you realize that you somehow shifted to your ghoul form. You faintly hear a voice call out to you, and before you know it you're being enclosed in someone's arms.
Sitting with your knees to your chest, you bury your head into the crook of the arm that's wrapped around you. Holding onto their arm tightly with both hands, you slowly start to calm down.
Once you've calmed down and your breathing went back to a semi normal pace, you take notice that the person holding you has been speaking this whole time. "It's okay, you're fine now. Follow my breathing Ness, breathe with me okay? Deep breath in, deep breath out."
Hearing the nickname, you try to speak only for your voice to come out small and squeaky, "Mountain-"
"I'm right here Ness, you're fine, I'm not going anywhere angel. I swear to it." With saying his piece, he rested his lips, placing a kiss in the process, on the crown of your head.
