Love-sickness

chapter 22 .Wally.

My Darling and I were outside on top of my hill, Home was getting settled into his new house. Though he is still a part of my house and he’s still a demon but he wanted to see what living by himself and being a part of the neighbourhood, his house is where my beloved's house used to be, before Home magged it with my house. All the neighbours were going about there gays, no one was questioning anything. Which I may have had a hand in. sitting up in the hill, My Darling and I could see everything. Julie and Sally were playing hopscotch. Eddie was going about delivering mail while Frank was walking along with him, they were both having a chat and Frank seemed to be smiling even laughing a little. Poppy had gone to Howdy's store to buy some baking supplies. Barnaby was walking around, he seemed to be lost, just wandering around the neighbourhood.  
“Wally?”
“Yes my darling, what's wrong are your wings bothering you?”

My darling smiled and placed her hand atop mine, her eyes were filled with slight concern. I knew she had seen Barnaby wandering around the neighbourhood and was most likely worried about him but I really couldn’t give a damn. After all he deserved everything he's going through for what he's done to me. As if she could read my mind she squeezed my hand a little tighter, gave me a warm smile and stood up walking down the hill toward Barnaby. I sighed, she knew that I wouldn’t let her go see him without my being there and was using that to her full advantage. Good this woman will be the death of me one day.
Standing up I walked down the hill and fell into step with My Darling, who turned to me, smiled evilly and took my hand in her’s. Good I love this woman. When we got to Barnaby he seemed surprised and calmed down when My Darling put her hand on his shoulder, bringing him over to the bench that was nearby and sitting him down then doing the same with me before she sat down on the grass in front of the both of us.

“Alrighty you have to talk to each other you’ve both been moping around for 30 - 35 years, give or take. I'm sick of it and I think the other neighbours are too… so talk. Now!” 
She said then got up and walked into Howdy's store and started talking to both Howdy and Poppy. I sighed looking out over the neighbourhood before turning to face Barnaby, who had his hat on his lap and his head in his hands. I felt a little bad for my former best friend and placed my hand on his back trying to comfort him. Key word being trying to comfort him…. It didn’t work. Barnaby burst into tears, lunching out and hugging me. To say I was uncomfortable was a severe understatement, I looked into Howdy's store trying to find my darling eyes but only found the back of her head. Damn you Y/n.

“Come now Barnaby there's no need to cry”
Ok so I wasn’t the best at comforting puppets but I didn’t think I was this bad, considering all that did was make him cry even more and we both fell to the ground. Barnaby on top of me still balling his eyes out.
“Tell me what's wrong Barnaby, your never on to cry, so… much? -if ever- before”
God damn it, it’s times like these I wished that I could understand emotions probably however it was also times like these that I was realised that I didn’t want to know how to react to these types of emotions unless it comes to My Sweet Darling but I had to try.
Though it took a lot longer than I’d liked, but Barnaby’s tears had eventually dried and he had thanked Wally before walking away with a smile on his face and his dog-like bounce in his steps. After he had left my Darling came out of the store, a small goody bag in hand.
“I see everything went well then?”
Their voice was still sweet and intoxicating, these wings were tucked behind them and tied with a bow. Howdy must have seen that My Beloved was having trouble holding her wings in place, though I knew that My darling was bound to me by more than love I couldn't help but feel a little jealous. Shaking my head I smiled at my darling and said.
“Better than either of us had excepted my darling, I see you enjoyed some shopping?”
“You know me a little to well at this point Mr. Wally Darling”
“It’s my job My Darling hahahaha”

As we walked to my house, god that feels weird to say. We saw none other than Home standing out the front of my house, he was smiling ear to ear and though his hands were behind his back I knew what he had in them which was why he was smiling the way he was. Y/n let go of my hand, dumped her bag of shopping in my hands and ran off to give Home a hug. Due to the little I sent Home on a couple of days ago, Home has been missing from the neighbourhood all together and of course Y/n was the first to notice and the one to miss him the most. Traitor.  Once I had gotten to where my two favourite puppets were standing and given Home a gentle pat on the back, taking what was in his hand and storing it in my pocket.
“How have you been Home, My Darling has so missed you while you were gone”
“Yeah! What’d you go Home it's been so boring without you, though Barnaby finally apologised to Wally and was crying over Wally today wich was funny, Howdy and I were having a good chuckle about it” 

Home chuckled at that and patted My Darling's head, he smiled sweetly at her.
“Aww I missed you to dear sweet but I have to head back to my house now, I desperately need a shower and unless wally’s letting me in then I’m not going to get one anytime soon”
“Can’t you at least stay a little longer, I made sweets and wally darling over there can’t taste much unless he’s munching on my neck during the night and even then he doesn't tell me how I taste so there’s nothing much I can do about it”
I gave My darling a pointed look and she gave me a sly smile in return, but Home only chuckled and patted her head again before walking off with a smile and a wave. I knew he didn’t need a shower, hell demons didn’t need to bathe at all but he did need to get way to help the others set up.

Walking inside, My darling set her bag of goodies on the counter and went to walk over to the door only to find it safely locked, courtesy of Home. placing a hand on her waist I asked in a soft whisper.
“And where do you think you're going My Darling?”
She spun around in my arms, placing her hands on my chest giving me that cheeky smile of hers,
“I was going out to see if Home wanted to hang out after his shower but something tells me I'm not going anywhere anytime soon. May I ask why that is?”
I shook my head, smiling and walked backwards while holding onto my darling dragging her back with me and falling back on the couch, My darling falling onto of me her wings flying out in surprise,

“your not going anywhere just yet My Sweet Darling”
