Nothing without you[Nickloon]

chapter 4 - ignorance

Balloons pov :

I'm tweaking right now. WHAT IF HE HEARD ME, his bed is right beside mine, just a few inches way. What if he asks me if I have a crush on him? Thankfully, I kept his name anonymous, but not the first few minutes Tk was around.

Maybe I should ask him if he heard me.. what if it will just make the situation worse than it already is? I take in a deep breath, a small tiny question won't hurt..?

"Uh hey Nickel..?"
I ask, trying to get his attention.

"Hm?"
Nickel answered back, I could see he was busy on his phone, but I didn't really mind it.

"Did.. did you hear my conversation with Tea Kettle?"

My face turned red a bit.. I could see Nickel zone out for a moment. Did he hear me!? Oh god.. what if he doesn't want to want to talk to me anymore? Am I making him uneasy?

"Uh no..why?"

"Oh-uh, it's nothing. I was just asking..!"

I replied back.

I can't tell if it was a lie or not, but I hope not.. I need to take my mind off of things right now, I tell Nickel I'm heading out for a bit, I get off my bed as I make it out the door, I felt my heart pound, this day is not getting any better.
I walked outside the hotel to admire the scenery and maybe write some poems, I felt like someone was watching me, but I just brushed it off as I focused more on the flowers.

Nickels' pov :

I watch him admire the flowers by the window, I sit back in, tho.
He can't even tell me who he likes..? I guess he doesn't trust me enough, does he? Maybe he just doesn't want to see me anymore, I should just try to ignore him. Hopefully, I'll do something right this time..

I sigh as I start watching videos of my phone, but my mind can't leave balloon alone. Does he really just not like me? Is he still the same as season 1? Or am I the problem.

He's definitely changed. There is no way he's still the same person he was in season 1, I could feel my face go warm thinking about him, but what was the point? He'll probably never like me back.
This whole friendship was stupid.

*Door creaks open*

"Oh hey Nickel! Wanna uh-go to the feild with me?"
Balloon asks me.

I don't know why, but I just couldn't reply. He seems so genuine, but does he really want to hang out with me? I don't know what came over me, but I quickly left the room without saying a word to Balloon. It hurt to do it, but I just couldn't stay there. My heart was pounding. Why am I still feeling this when I know Balloon doesn't like me back.

Balloons Pov :

Did- Did he just ignore me? Maybe I didn't speak loudly enough, but we were alone in the room! Did I do something wrong? I started feeling cold. What did I do to make him so upset? I should've run after him, now I have no idea how to find him!

I took in a deep breath, my thoughts were circling my mind, does he just not like me..?
No, no! That can't be it. Maybe he wasn't feeling good?
I dunk my face onto my pillow. Was it me who did something? I heard someone knock on the door.

"Uh, hey, Balloon.."

"What do you want knife."
I said in an annoyed tone.

"Chill, I'm just here to tell you Nickel was crying. What did you do this time?"
He scoffed.

Did.. Did he just assume I MADE Nickel cry!? Do you mean THE NICKEL from inanimate insanity!?

for some reason, I felt anger. How could he assume such a thing about me!?

"I did nothing."
I reluctantly reply.

"You definitely did, I mean, you did it in season 1. You can do it again. You're just the same old balloo-"

"Knife, can you just get out, I dont have time for your BULLSHIT, okay!?"
I just swore, ehh, whatever.

I heard Knife mutter something before leaving the room, I couldn't hear it, but it's not like it even matters.
I take out a breath before dunking my head back in my pillow.
Wait.. Nickel was crying..? Over what? That man barely cries. What happened to him!? Was it my fault? It can't be.. maybe he heard me.. no.. why would he be crying over that (well, well, well balloon, you might wanna sit down for this one!)

Maybe im somehow taking part in it? I should do something to apologise even tho im not entirely sure it's MY fault.

I grab a pen and a piece of paper that I soon use my scissors to cut it in a heart shape, I take my pen and start writing down my apology. Maybe I should rethink this.. Seriously, Balloon a note!? I should apologise to him face to face.. but eh.. I'm scared, I'll just stick to this.

My hand hurts, and I finished writing a not that big of an apology note. Hopefully, this can make him feel better in some way..
I still can't get over the fact that Nickel cried over something, I've never actually seen him cry. What even happened..?

Nickels Pov :

I can't believe I did that.. what will Balloon think of me!? It's not like I care.. right..? For some reason, it felt really painful to just leave Balloon like that, but what felt the most painful was that he didn't like me back, I mean, is it his fault? I've always been such an asshole towards him. Im the one who should be ignored.

I felt some tears come out of my eyes, what the.. am I really crying? Well no shit I am, I saw someone glance at me but I quickly ran off outside, I find a near by tree and I bring my legs close to my face as I try to hide my tears, I hug myself as I keep thinking of Balloon, why do I even still care!?
My eyes decided to dose off as I felt myself going to sleep.

Balloons pov :

Where is he!? What's taking him so long, does he not wanna come back, what if he just doesn't want to see me, should I give him some time, my thoughts blasted my mind as I walk around the room back and fourth, I need to calm myself down, I exit my room as I bump into someone, oh hey its paintbrush I can ask them where Nickel is!

"Ah-sorry! Oh wait, paintbrush, have you seen Nickel anywhere?"
I ask desperately.

"Yea.. I think he went outside but I don't really know, why are you even looking for him?"

"Cant a guy find his friend?"

"Seems to me that you like him."

They smirked at me as I got covered in blush. I just mumbled out a thanks as I quickly walked off. Maybe I am a bit obvious, but I shouldn't care about that right now!
I quickly head outside, I try to call out for Nickel but no answer, I look around as I see a person sitting under a shade by a tree, it was no other than Nickel, wait is he sleeping?

I rub my eyes as I walk over there. Yep, he's definitely asleep, his tiny snores make my heart pound, as I sweat from blushing, he's cute when he's asleep, maybe I should take him to our room.
I kneel down, grabbing Nickel carefully as I look at his face. My face goes even redder as I feel my chest being pressed against his, an embarrassing smile popping up on my face.

I walk inside the hotel and I notice a few people looking at me, I try to ignore it but my face was too red that people started noticing, luckily I made it out alive as I opened the door with one hand while the other was carrying Nickel, I lay him gently on his bed as I keep staring at him, he looks so calm when he's asleep.
I don't know what got over me but I leaned in and kissed him on the cheek, I was gonna leave our room since I got a bit embarrassed by what I did before I left the room I wrote another additional thing on the note.

<P.S - I carried you to your bed, so dont freak out :)>
