Erik x Reader (One shots/ Scenarios)

Erik x Nadir Heroin

  Nadir enters into the silence of the phantom's lair. Most of the time there is hauntingly beautiful music playing, notes that play at your heartstrings. Now, it is silent. A melancholy silence. 

   As Nadir makes his way to Erik's room he steps on something, which ends up breaking beneath his foot. When he moves his foot he notices glass shards from a needle. A heavy sigh leaves the daroga, he knows exactly what state Erik is in right now. As expected, upon entering the bedroom he finds Erik laying face down in his coffin. 

   "I know you're there, you great booby." Erik mumbles dejectedly. 

   He walks closer to the coffin and leans over to place his hand on the depressed man's back. Erik doesn't move his face away from his hibernation hole, but Nadir still can notice that the man is unmasked. Erik stopped worrying about his face being shown to Nadir years ago, he has other things he rather worry about. 

   The candles are unlit and show no signs of being burned for a good while, it seems Erik has been lying here for at least a couple days. Nadir then takes notice of Erik's arm, it's bruised from his drug usage. Whenever despair falls upon the ghost he takes it up with his own special remedy. Of course he would move for that. 

   Nadir bites his lip anxiously as he feels guilty, "I am sorry I did not visit sooner, my friend."

   "I quite enjoyed not hearing your nagging voice in my ear, why did you have to come and ruin that?"

   He knows better to take that truthfully, Erik has his odd ways of showing his appreciation. He speaks again before the other can, "I missed you."

   Nadir's eyes widen in surprise. He stays in silence deciding whether to make a joking remark or to take this rare moment of sincerity seriously. He chooses the latter. 

   "I have to say I did as well. I felt my heart tugging in your direction so I knew I had to come and see you."

   That statement causes Erik to look up finally, his face ridden with obvious tear stains and his eyes slightly puffy. It hurts seeing him like this but Nadir can't help but smile from seeing his face. The world may not enjoy it, but he does. He adores that face. 

   Erik scoffs and rests his cheek against his pillow, "Where did you get that lie from? A tugging in your heart? Sounds like a disease, you should get that checked out."

   His silly response makes Nadir burst into laughter, the way he covers his mouth amuses Erik greatly. Once they are able to make eye contact again, Nadir grabs the other's hand gently to not startle him, "How about I help you clean up and we have some tea?"

   Erik's legs waver a bit once he is standing all the way up, he refuses to let Nadir help so he just walks towards the bathroom himself, "I'll wash up while you make the tea."

   As Erik walks to the bathroom Nadir quickly places a kiss on his cheek, "I'm here for you. Let me care for you." Then, he gives him a soft smile as he leaves to head to the kitchen. Erik stands in the doorway shocked, his cold cheeks turning red. He lets out a tiny chuckle and closes the door.
