GENO'S POV:

So, uh... Error and Ink just got into a bit of an argument... And now Ink's crying... I think I'm gonna go back home now...

INK'S POV:

Shit. Fuck. Fuck, I'm crying. Shit, I need to fix things with Error. I get up and wipe my tears. Fresh and Geno look at me weirdly. "So, uh... Are you guys getting a divorce or something?"- asked me Geno. I blinked a few times. "What- We're not even married!"- I said. Fresh raised an eyebrow. "But y'all kissed?"- he asked. I blushed. Geno's eye socket widened. "Wait-WHAT."- he exclaimed.

I sighed and got back into the Anti-Void. As I walked around, I couldn't help but notice that it looked empty. Well, emptier than usual... Damn, Error's gone.

ERROR'S POV:

I went back to Nightmare's castle. I'm not going to betray my team for the guy I'm gay for... Wait, shit I mean. Uh. I'M NOT GOING TO BETRAY THEM. I speed walked through the dark corridors until I got to Nightmare's office... Wrong room, I'm fucking lost again. Fuck walking. I teleported into Nightmare's office. "NIGHTMARE!"- I yelled, making him jump. "What do you want, you little-" I cut him off. "The truce with Ink was a mistake." He slowly looked up from his documents. "...Explain."- he said.

I sighed. "He wanted to try and get close to me so he could to destroy our team from the inside."- I replied. Nightmare rolled his eye, then spoke in a sarcastic tone. "Oh, wow. And you figured all that by yourself?" My eye sockets widened. HE FUCKING KNEW?? "You knew and you didn't tell me..?"- I asked.

Nightmare nodded, setting his pen down. "Of course I knew. Why else would he want to be friends with someone like you?"- he said harshly. Fuck you mean 'someone like me'... "Someone like me? What do you mean 'someone like me'? And why didn't you say anything?"- I asked him.

He shrugged his shoulders. "Oh, you know. Some as vile as you. So full of dread. Pathetic. As for your other question, I was simply curious how long this little alliance of yours was going to last."- he replied. Damn, what happened with being one of his most valuable men... I crossed my arms. "Oh, fuck you."- I mumbled. Nightmare let out a laugh, sitting up on his chair. "Oh, Error, I thought you knew this. You may be strong, but you're too lonely and naive. Anyone can manipulate you into thinking they care about you."- he continued with a wide smirk. I could barely hold my anger back.

He chuckled at my face expression, seeming to find my glare amusing. "Why the long face? It's true. You need us, Error. We're your friends, right? We would never manipulate you. Not like he did."- he told me. Maybe he was right, Ink did made me think he cared and we were doing a good thing...

I sighed and let my arms to my sides. Nightmare smiled and stood up, putting his hand on my shoulder. "You did a good thing by telling me, Error. Now the others will know to never trust anyone from my brother's team. I'm sure you won't make the same mistake twice, right?"- he asked. I gulped and looked down. Nightmare furrowed his non-existing eyebrows. He tightened his grip on me. "Right?"- he repeated. I flitched slightly, then nodded. "Right..."- I replied.

Nightmare smiled at me again. "Good."- he said, then let go of my shoulder. He sat down behind his desk once again.
