Ðêvïl§ Ðêår [Howdy x Wally story]

Ch: 21

Short chapter :,)

It's been 3 days since the incident, barnaby has been keeping himself away from howdy. He didn't even bother to look or even go near Wally. He didn't know if the things that had happened are true, but it's making howdy more anxious than ever.

Howdy's neck healed as only a few hallow marks were apparent. Wally has been going near howdy more, making sure he is okay and being a bit clingy, but in a good way. Howdy doesn't mind, he loves the new attention that he has been getting from howdy, and I think Wally is enjoying it too.

Wally sometimes eyes barnaby when he is not looking, he wishes he can just snap that dogs neck, but he mustn't For howdy.

While howdy was locking the church doors, he can hear someone approaching him, the footsteps echoing through the church. He turns back thinking it was wally.

But it was barnaby, howdy feels himself getting more uncomfortable as he stood close to him. "Howdy we need to talk." He said, "sorry barnaby..I really need to head to be-" "Howdy. What is wally?" He said seriously.

"A puppet? A priest?.." he said, "now I don't believe that howdy." He said.

Flashback

Barnaby quietly groans in pain as his side felt like it was on fire, he opened his eyes to see howdy. But, howdy was holding Wally as they both slept, barnaby sat up, the moon light was the only light source that he had. Barnaby got up, almost falling in the process, and carefully limped toward the two puppets. "Howdy.?" He said, no answer was given, he looked at the smaller male in his arms and his eyes rounded.

Dried blood was on his skin, coming down from his eyes to his chin. A few blood stains on his and howdy's clothing,

End of flashback- sorry for the fast writing, it's 5:40 AM rn

Howdy looked at barnaby, "howdy. Is Wally...a entity?" He said, "what makes you think of such a foolish thing." Howdy said "that day in the woods, I had a dream or..at least I think it was a dream, about a horrific demon, and, when I woke up, I saw you holding Wally in your arms as I saw dried blood stains on the face of Wally. No normal puppet does that." He snapped at howdy, he was losing his patience to barnaby. "Wally was the cause of this. Wasn't he." He said as he looked at howdy's marked neck. "I have no idea what you saw. But don't you dare blame Wally for this." He said as he motioned his hand to his neck.

"Howdy listen to me! He is dangerous, we need to report him to the Cour-" "you will do no such thing!" Howdy hissed at barnaby, "he is not dangerous. And if you are going to be accusing Wally of such things. I shall not let You speak to me again. Barnaby I know you mean well, but you need to let it go." Howdy replied, "let it g- let it go?! Howdy look at your neck, dark marks are hollow beneath your fur!" Barnaby said angrily. "I don't know what Wally is, but we need to tell the court. It's for the towns own safety and especially your own safety, your friends are worried about you, i am worried about you!" Barnaby said.

"You don't need to worry. But if you do so much as tell anyone about what you saw." Howdy said taking a step forward, making barnaby take a step back. "I will not hesitate to do something." Howdy hissed, Barnabys eyes widen, "howdy.." he said as he touched his arm softly. "What happened to you. You used to be so understanding..now your just..distant." Barnaby said, howdy pushed his hand away from his arm. "I think it's late. Goodnight barnaby" he said, he didn't waist a second more. He walked away from barnaby leaving him alone in the churches nave.

Howdy entered his room to see Wally there, sound asleep. Howdy looked at him for a couple seconds before sighing, he pinched the brim of his nose as his anxiety was going to kill him. He wasn't going to let barnaby tell the church. And if he does some how tell. He is going to Defend Wally, he is one of the head priests in the church, so it may or may not work. Howdy took off his cassock. He sighed as he rubbed his neck, he sat on the bed carefully, so he doesn't wake up Wally, he didn't think that one of his closest friends..would kiss him. But now he was losing his patience with him.
