Gosh This is HORROR-ble (Reincarnated as Horrortale Sans)

19: Booboos and Tiaras

Soooo... if Dust is getting his wound cleaned where would he be? You glance around with your blurry vision, you take a quick breath to steady yourself

"O...k... step one....: find Du..st. Step tw...o-"

"Would you like to know where Dust is?" Shit. You forgot that Nightmare is still here. Well so what if you talk to yourself? You're still not exactly in your right state of mind, so fuck him you guess.

"Yea..h" you reach up to pick at your eyesocket but Nightmare takes your hands away. You flinch a bit but not as badly as the first time, you move to fiddle with the bunny ears on your sweatshirt instead.

"He would probably be in the bathroom, there are plenty of first aids around and the bathroom is the calmest place to deal with injuries, at least in Cross's opinion."

You didn't exactly realize there were bathrooms here, of course there would be, it just hadn't crossed your mind.

Gosh you should just take a good long hot shower once this all gets settled, you haven't used hot water in a long time, it was mostly bottles or streams you used when needed.

You follow Nightmare as he leads you to a bathroom door

"Now, just know, you are not in trouble for what happened back there, it was likely the Lv you have. But just because I forgive you does not mean than Dust will."

Nightmare calmly walks away with you left standing near the door to the bathroom. You take a moment to hype yourself up and you knock on the closed door.

You tug at your eyesocket as the door creaks open, it's Cross that opened it. You can see Dust sitting on a toilet seat lid with a bandage around his arm.

"What do you want?" Damn, blunt but straight to the point, at least Cross isn't letting you stall.

"I.. wann..a apol..ogiz..e.. to D..ust." The skeleton that is mentioned looks up at the sound of his name. Throws up the peace sign and turns to you.

"Heyyy Leefy" you wave at him and you see Phantom hovering over him. (Where did Jay go, you want Jay back only Jay calls you Leefy)

Cross glances from you to Dust. Then back at you, he sighs and begins to walk away.

"I'll leave you two to it, don't break each other. Stars I swear Leef will be worse than Killer when it comes to Dust." Cross mutters the last bit but your ears can pick it up. Once Cross fully leaves the bathroom you begin to speak.

"I am... so.. so...rry. I-I... don't know wh...at came over... me, and then you were ...bleeding.. and I fully understa...nd if yo...u never want to talk to ...me again b.ut please... don't be .ang..ry... I don't th..ink I can take it if you wer...e angry... But you have a right to be, don't g..et me ...wrong. Go..d fucking damn ...I'm so sorry."

Dust sits there in silence for a long tense moment, you are fully expecting him to toss a weapon your way and cast you out. But then he starts to laugh, first a chuckle, but quickly turning into and almost full on cackle.

"BahaBAHAHAH Oh my gosh Leef, It'll take more than a little nip to make me angry. Do you even know the kind of scrapes I get when I'm out of missions?. I'll be fine, I shouldn't have brought up your age."

You let out a deep breath and you allow your claw to drop from your cracked eyesocket.

"I..am so..ry though... is there anyt..hing I can do... to make.. you forgiv...e me?" Dust gets a devious smile on his face.

"Well...since you're offering..."

You can not believe that you are doing this. With Jay watching you too..You know what? No. You're going to embrace it. You cross your legs in the chair and give your biggest, most charming smile to Dust.
