"Oh there's a lot of different places to go.There's the mall and a few different parks we could go to," Bad stated as they looked up different attractions in the city."Like water parks?" asked Skeppy.
Bad smiled and his tail twitched excitedly,"Uh,yeah...we got one of those...It's not to far from here...Maybe forty-five minutes drive in my car..."

The line was long but the two men stuck it out to get into the water park.
Kids excited screams echoed through the air and the mist of rushing water filled the breeze.
Girls had already taken off their tops to show off their swimsuits and gossiped among one another.
Bad and Skeppy kept close and walked into the park.Bad held a map and pointed to a ride at the start of the park.Skeppy was desperate to get his mind off of last night.He didn't admit it but he didn't get much sleep last night sleeping so close to Bad.
"It's called (The Bomb,)" said Bad as he pointed upwards to a big water slide,"The line there isn't to long,let's go there first."
Skeppy smiled and walked ahead of the demon,"Alright,let's go!"

One ride after the other,the two rode on number of rides and had lots of fun before Bad whined about being hungry."Here,sit down.I'll find the nearest food place.." said Skeppy with utmost confidence.
Bad sat down,his tail flicking around and he sighed deeply.Exhausted from walking and standing in lines for rides.
"Okay, it's this way.." said Skeppy as he looked back at Bad.The demon sighed and sighed stretched out his legs before standing up beside Skeppy.
Another five minutes pass by and Skeppy is glaring at this map in his hands as he slowly walks on. The demo's stomach rumbles and growled,"Skeppy?"
The diamond patched man didn't take his eyes off the map,"Yeah,Bad?"
The demon leaned closer,looking at the map,"How far away is it?"
Skeppy turned to face Bad but kept his eyes on the map.He tried to keep Bad from looking at the map,"Uhm,I uh,I don't know..."
Skeppy lowered the map,finally meeting eyes with the demon.
Bad was annoyed,"Skeppy,you don't know where we are do you? Do you know how to read a map?!" Skeppy got defensive,"Of course I can read a map I just can't read this map!"
Bad rolled his eyes,"Oh my goodness,Skeppy! Okay,look! Just give it me... I'll find it.."
Skeppy grumbled to himself,angry and embarrassed by the situation but he handed the map over to the demon.
Bad took one glance around and looked at the map.Seconds later he pointed a direction,"Here! Over this way..Come on,Skeppy.."
Skeppy was still annoyed but his heart started racing when he felt the warm hand of the demon grab his. Skeppy lagged behind and let himself be pulled away by the demon hand in hand.
A tightness growing in his chest like he'd never felt before.He couldn't take his eyes off their hands.
"Alright! Here it is..Come on let's get in line before it gets any bigger," Bad said as he let go of Skeppy's hand and put away the map in his back pocket.

It was time to record.Skeppy and Bad each set themselves up in their rooms and made a few videos they had planned out ahead of time.Skeppy tried to forget what happened today.
About the lump in his throat and aching pain in his chest when he was near the demon.
Hearing him over the mic comforted Skeppy.
It helped calm him somehow.This was how he met the demon so long ago.

Taking off his headphones he leaned back in his chair and stretched his arms out over his head,exaggerating his yawn.
Skeppy rested his hands on his chest and without a second thought he slid them down to his nipples,gently twisting them through his clothes and taking a deep breath.He moaned softly and relaxed his body against the chair letting his right hand glide down.

"Skeppy!" Yelled Bad as he bursted into the room.
Skeppy came back to reality so quickly he jumped from his chair and began screaming.
"Ahh! AHHG! Bad what the fuck!" The demon stepped back and screamed too,"Ah! What?! What's wrong?!"
The demon went right up to Skeppy and carefully placed his hands on the other man's shoulders.
Skeppy's face flushed red and he pushed Bad away,"Get out! Get out of my room!"
Bad was hurt,"Skeppy, I'm sorry! Wait what did I do?!"
Skeppy yelled out in frustration and pointed to the door,"Out,Bad! Get out!"
Bad's tail dropped to the floor and laid limp on the ground.He lowered his hands,drooping his arms to the side and he put his head down,
"Okay.....Okay.... I'm leaving...This is me leaving.... I'm...I'm sorry I barged in like that...I should have knocked first..."
Bad turned his back to Skeppy and walked to the door.He stood in the door way and glanced back at Skeppy,"Uhm,I uh....I made dinner....It's spaghetti..If you want some...You can uh...come out and get some...unless you want me to bring it..."

Skeppy pulled at his hair and took a deep breath,"Bad!...Bad uh...I'm sorry...."
The demon fully turned to face Skeppy,"No it's okay...I understand this was a big move for you and I know I'm not the most exciting person to be around---"
Skeppy speed walked over to the demon,grabbing him by the shoulders,peering into his eyes,"No! You are the most exciting person I have ever been around...I just..."
Skeppy dropped his hands to his sides and walked away gripping at his hair again.He sat on the edge of his bed and leaned over leaning on his knees,"I think there's something wrong with me..." Bad's tail slowly rocked back and forth as he walked over to Skeppy's side. Slowly,Bad sat himself down beside Skeppy.
Skeppy glanced up at him and whipped his face with the sleeve of his hoodie.

"Skeppy?" asked Bad with a soft tone.
The diamond patched man sat up,unable to look at Bad but his eyes were wet with tears desperate to escape."Bad,I--I uh....I think I'm in love with someone..."
Bad inhaled deeply and kept himself from reacting to much more.The demon didn't say a word but kept his eyes on Skeppy. The diamond patched man sniffled softly and finally glanced at Bad but again moved his eyes away from him and to the floor."I met them online a while back and I just....I just don't know what to say to them..."
Bad waited a moment before answering, making sure Skeppy didn't want to say anything more."Talking to someone you really like is hard,Skeppy.I understand what your going through.What would you want to say to that person?"
Skeppy dropped a tear and forcibly laughed but stopped himself from getting out hand.
"Uhm..?" He said with a smirk on his face...Skeppy looked at the wall and glanced at Bad a moment before looking at the computer screen,"Uhm...Well,I think I'd start with how they've always been there for me whenever I needed them day or night...Uhm.... I'd uh....I'd say...How much I really love the sound of their voice...How just being able to hear them made me feel safe..."
Skeppy looked Bad in the eye and smiled,
"Thanks,Bad...Talking to you means a lot to me.."

The demon smiled and put a hand around Skeppy.Over his shoulders,pulling him closer in for a tight hug.
Skeppy hesitated at first but the moment he felt Bad's hand glide over his back he melted into the embrace.Burying his face into the crook of his neck.
Bad stroked Skeppy's hair and said softly,"I'm sure you're gonna do your do best to tell this person how you feel."
Skeppy hugged a little tighter,"Yeah...Me too.."

"Do you want a little or a lot?" Bad asked Skeppy as he held a decently sized plate in his hands.
Skeppy hummed to himself,
"A little...I ate to many hotdogs today..."
Bad smiled,his tail flicking around happily as he made Skeppy a plate of spaghetti.
Skeppy grabbed a ladle and poured some sauce onto his noodles as Bad held the plate steady for him.
The two made eye contact then started giggling for seemingly no reason at all.
They both sat down and ate in silence.The mood wasn't awkward or tense,it was comfortable.Each time they made eye contact,they'd giggle and slurp up some more spaghetti.
Bad started to laugh.His soft intake of breaths made Skeppy almost choke on his food.
"You got some sauce on your nose...Skeppy...your nose.." Bad said while hiding his teeth with his hand.
Skeppy grabbed a napkin and whipped the sauce away,staring at Bad the entire time with a biggest grin on his face.Bad continued to laugh and try to finish his dinner.

When the food was put away and the kitchen was cleaned the two headed for bed.
Changed and in their rooms they laid down and got comfortable under the blankets.
Bad snuggled to his pillows and just before he was about to fall asleep he heard a knock on his door. "Skeppy? Skeppy is something wrong?" asked Bad while partially sitting up.
Skeppy was in a black Tshirt and light blue shorts above the knee.He was holding poofed up pillow with a light blue pillow case.

His face didn't scream he had a nightmare or that he was upset.
Bad was confused and then Skeppy got closer,"Can I sleep with you?"
Bad was bewildered and stuttered his words,
"Uh-uh....Ye-yeah, I guess so..."
Skeppy smiled and jumped onto the bed.Bad let out a scream as Skeppy jumped over him to the other side of the bed,"Skeppy! Why didn't you go around you muffin head!?" He heard Skeppy begin to laugh and as he laughed he said,"Good night,Baaaaaad...."
The demon watched as Skeppy cuddled himself up in his own blanket and got comfortable.
"Okay,then...that just happened..." said the demon with his mouth agape.
Skeppy giggled under his covers,
"Uhmmmm Hmmm...Good night,Bad." The demon chuckled to himself,happy that the patched man was in much better spirits then earlier.
However Bad felt strange about this.Skeppy had slept in his bed before but why does it feel different right now all of a sudden.He was almost embarrassed about it and thinking he should have said no.

Glancing at the pile of covers to his side.A blush creeped over his cheeks,a gentle smile swept across his face.He didn't feel any regret.The demon was happier then ever to have Skeppy by his side.He slide down to his backside and turned to face the pile of blankets,"Good night you little muffin head."
