This was a request from my friend Animepotato3009 She also has a twisted wonderland book so go check it out if you want! This one is a bit on the angsty side so beware! ———————————————————————
(Y/n's POV)
I never really like to admit these kinda things but lately I've been very stressed...
Let me fill you in.
#1:Crowley has been making me do more chores than normal. #2:All the other teachers have been giving assignment after assignment; including homework. #3:I help waiter/waitress at the Mostro Lounge for extra money; and the customers are extremely rude. And #4: Grim and Ace have been getting in more trouble lately and I've been the one other people blame.
Now you're all caught up!
Because of my stress my patience level has weakened by a lot. So I sent Grim to go stay with Ace and Deuce for a few days. They tried to ask why, but I shouted for them to just go. And they did. Since they left, I haven't left the dorm. Not to go to classes. Not to go to the Mostro Lounge. And I haven't done anything Crowley's asked me to do.
I've just been in bed; having a small breakdown might I add. The only thing I've gotten up for is to eat or use the bathroom...

(Floyd's POV)
"Hey Jade?" "Yes Floyd?" he countered back as he cleaned dishes from the sink. "Have you seen Koebi-Chan today?" I asked. Ever since Y/n helped with Azul's overbolt, I've held them dear to my heart. And not in a friend or family way.., in a lover kinda way- NOT THAT I'D ADMIT IT!
"Hm? No I haven't seen them today...Maybe you should go check their dorm. If they're not there, then look for that troublesome trio that they hang around with." Jade suggested. "Good idea! I'll be back soon~" I said as I left the Mostro Lounge.
(Small time skip; same POV)
As I walked up to the door of Ramshackle, I noticed almost all of the lights were off. It would be normal if it was night, but it's currently 4:24pm. I knocked on the door, calling out to Y/n. "Koebi-Chan~~~ It's me! Are you home?~" I got no answer, but I heard a tiny bit of shuffling. I huffed out a sigh. "Okay, I'll come to you then!~" I said opening the door.
The dorm was quiet. Too quiet. I looked in all the rooms downstairs, but no Y/n. So I made my way upstairs to start my search. I rarely come to Ramshackle so I don't know which room is theirs. So I started to narrow down the rooms by taking a small peak inside each room.
The last room I looked into I saw a small lump in the bedsheets. *Found them* I thought. Closing the door behind me I walked over to the side of the bed as quietly as I could. But I guess I wasn't quite enough; as they peaked their head out from under the covers they had bundled themselves in.
Their hair was a wreck, their eyes were puffy- the only thing I can think to be the cause is crying. Their cheeks were a bit red as well. Once they saw me their lip quivered a bit as more tears filled their eyes. They then quickly threw themselves back under the covers to hide.
My heart hurt to see them in this state. I never wanted to ever have to see them like this; but it would've happened sooner or later I guess. "..Koebi-Chan..., are you okay?.." It was a dumb question to ask after seeing their broken state; but that's the only thing I could think to ask them.
I heard them respond with a quiet "..no.." I could tell they were trying to hold back their tears. Letting out a small sigh, I gently pulled the covers off of their face. Y/n tried to get the blankets back but before they could, I carefully grabbed them and cradled them in my arms.
"..You can tell me if you feel bad..., I won't judge you y'know.." I told them, adding a softness to my voice that I didn't know was there. Hearing this made their tears spill. They clutched onto me as they cried; so I waited until they were done so that I could ask what made them upset. I needed to know if I would have to squeeze someone.
After about half an hour, they had calmed down. "Koebi-Chan, why are you upset?..Do I need to squeeze someone?~" I asked in a slight playful way, despite how serious I was. Y/n let out a small chuckle as they wiped some excess tears from their face. "..No, you don't have to squeeze anyone...I've just been stressed lately.." I tilted my head in confusion "What made you be so stressed?" Y/n hesitated a bit before answering.
"-..Everything. Crowley giving me random jobs, all the work assignments we have to do along with homework, some customers at the Lounge are very disrespectful, and Grim and Ace have been in more trouble lately. So my patience has gone down extremely; meaning I get emotional more easily..." They sighed.
"Well.., if you ever need someone to lean on....You can lean on me. Okay Koebi-Chan?~~" I asked giving them a small playful nudge. They chuckled. "Okay, Unagi-San" Y/n said.

Unagi-San....I will cherish that name with all my heart until my dying days...
