Opposite Blue

Chapter 90 - Insomnia

3AM

Ink's View:
I sat in the living room in the dark, her eyes glowing opposite me.

"You're lucky they're asleep as Gaster erases their memories of you telling them." Bete whispered.

* Guess I am.

She looked right into my eyes and a thought entered my mind...

* Error?

Error wasn't in bed. I got out of bed and walked out the room, my hand on my belly.

* Error, where at you?

My back was aching...

I heard the floor boards creek so I assumed it was Error.

But I was so wrong.

It was dark everywhere.

* Error is that-

The sudden feeling of a slash came about and I looked down to see blood.

* E-Error..?!

I fell to the floor, my back to the ground. The pain...

See what happens...
When rules are broken...

* E-Error p-please-

I snapped out of it, Error waking me up.

* Ink, are you alright..? Why are you downstairs at this time...?

* I couldn't sleep.

Error say down next to me.

* Your hands are trembling.

* I'm just...cold..

* In the summer?

I looked away from Error.

Please don't cry again...
Let's get some sleep.
Just defend yourself, IDIOT!

* Let's just go to bed..

Error teleported us to bed and we cuddled until I fell asleep.

The next morning, 9am...

Blue's View:
I woke up at the same time as Nightmare, but we stayed in bed for a bit. Y'know, kissing...hugging...joking about.

Heh.

* Mmph...we should get up and go make breakfast..

Nightmare delivered another kiss.

* This is so much better though...

* I know, but that doesn't change duty my love...

* I know...

* I promised Error I would make Ink's favourite breakfast, too. Ink's been really miserable lately...

* Have you tried talking to 'em?

* Kinda, but not properly.

We got out of bed and got ready together before going downstairs to start the day.

Error's View:
I slowly opened my eyes and stretched my hand to wrap around Ink...but he wasn't there.

* Mm...Ink?

* Morning.

I lifted my head to see Ink sitting by the window, as if he was waiting for something.

* Did you get any sleep, like, at all?

He shook his head no.

* Ink that's not healthy! Look, I don't know what you're going through and you won't tell me...but please, you need to take care of yourself.
