Paintbrush POV
Candy sent us to bed after that and I flopped back on Lightbulb's bed. She sat next to me. "LIGHTY- WHY WOULD YOU EVEN THINK OF DOING SUCH AN INSANE THING?!" She didn't seem to understand what I was saying 'cause she was distracted by something.
"Uh, hello?? Lightbulb?" "You.. called me Lighty." I felt myself become embarrassed as she stared at me. I sat up quickly as I looked back at her. "Oh- uh, it just slipped out and felt kinda n-normal so-" "Call me it again." "Huh?" "Say it again!"
She moved closer to my face as we waited for me to speak. "Uhm, Lighty?" "Again!" "Lighty." "Again!!" "Lighty, just quit it." "Aha! I made you say it!" "No you.. goddamnit." She giggled as she moved herself to be sitting next to me.
"Now you can't get mad when I call you Painty!" "But that's unfair! You like it when I call you Lighty, but I hate it when you call me Painty!" "Sucks to suck." "..Fuck this, I'm going to bed."
-
I woke up to Lightbulb popping my nose. "Morning brush full-a paint!" I groaned. "Hi.." "I have a surprise today!!" I yawned as I sat up. "Oh yeah? What is it?" "Remember when we planned a double date with Pickle?"
"..Don't fucking tell me.." "Nah, Imma tell you anyway. IT'S TODAY!!!" I laid back down and groaned again. "Aww, c'mon, Paintster!" "Why should I? We're not dating."
"We can just pretend to be! I don't wanna make the poor guy feel bad!!" "But that's lying, Lightbulb." "So? I lie all the time!" I sat up again and stared at her. "Yeah, I can tell... Wait do you lie to me-"
"SHHH!! Shut up! Let's go get ready!!"
"Fineeeeeee."
-
"Where are you two off to?" "Oh, mornin' dad! Me and Painty are going to hang out with some friends!" "Okay, be safe!" "We will!" We left the house and Lightbulb closed to door behind her.
"Sooo, where are we going?" "To an arcade! It's not too far from here." "I don't think I've ever been to an arcade in my life.. I've only seen them in movies and stuff." I said as we started walking.
"Wait, really??" "Mhm." "You remind me of an alien sometimes, Painty. You're so odd." "Heh, thanks.." "No but seriously, I worry about you sometimes." "..For real?" "Yeah, from experience your parents don't seem like.. the best people to be around."
"Yeah, that's why I choose a college far away from here. I wanted to get as far away from them as possible. But.. I sort of lost a home in the process." Lightbulb grabbed my hand and smiled.
"Well, just know that you're always welcome is my home! You can always stay with me!!" I looked up at her warm smiling face and felt my heart flutter. Blood rushed to my cheeks as I quietly coughed up a thank you.
She giggled and continued walking.. not letting go of my hand.
I looked her dead in the eye. "You didn't answer my question from earlier." "What was it?" "Do you lie to me?"
