After waking up probably 6 times throughout the night, it was morning. My alarm went off at 6:30, and I dragged myself out of bed, slipping my feet into my slippers. I honestly forgot I had them, I never wore them.. I got them as a joke, anyway..

I shuffled quietly out of the room, glancing at the sleeping X before going through the hall. I was as quiet as possible when passing the couch, desperately not wanting to wake Two and get trapped in a conversation.

I went into the kitchen, grabbing a pan, some eggs, and a pack of bacon all as quietly as I could manage. I let out a small sigh. It felt like it had been forever since I had a moment alone in my safe space. I always loved cooking, especially for others. Maybe not everyone, but at least X. I liked to cook for X. He always made me feel comfortable eating too, I didn't know how to explain it.

My eyes linger on the medicine shelf for a moment. How many days had I missed..? I didn't know, but I felt fine, so maybe I didn't need them anymore. I continue with breakfast, soon being joined by a yawning, groggy X. I smiled, not even needing to say anything. It had been a while since I felt this comfortable in my home.

 Of course, all good things must come to an end, as Two had woken up soon after. I could almost feel their presence from behind as they entered the room. In what felt like an eternity, but was probably only a few seconds, I felt a hand on my shoulder. "Whatcha cookin', good loo-"

"STOP FUCKING TOUCHING ME!" I had lost it, turning around in a panic and swinging the pan into their face

"STOP FUCKING TOUCHING ME!" I had lost it, turning around in a panic and swinging the pan into their face. I dropped the pan as they stumbled back, X quickly standing up. "WHAT THE HELL FOUR!?" X yelled, quickly rushing over to Two. My mouth hung open as I steadied myself on the counter. What the fuck was that!?

"Oh my god- I'm- I'm so sorry-" I hesitantly walked forwards, looking at the burn on Two's face. My hands were tingling, I felt disgusted with myself. Why was I lashing out so much? This wasn't normal. I didn't even think when I swung, why was it always like this?

Two didn't seem mad, or even scared. They just winced, clearly trying not to cry from the pain as X inspected the damage. I felt like shit. Even if I hated them, I didn't want to act on anything.. My heart dropped as X shot me a glare, walking Two off to somewhere else to help them.

X was mad at me.

I felt like my world was falling apart. X wasn't supposed to get mad at me. Maybe he hated me now! Maybe he always did...

I sacrificed so much for him anyway, why should I care if he hated me? Maybe it would be better if he did leave me.
