Words Can Hurt ☆ BFB AU

Prologue.

Just Not. A chaotic group of friends trying to make it together in life. We have the smart friends, the fun friends, the popular friends, and of course, we have Pillow.

A chaotic soul. An individual who decides to take risks.

The group was in a bedroom. Sleeping bags and mattresses were scattered across the floor.

"Hey, Book, truth or dare?" Pillow asked. "Hm, I choose.. dare!"

The two-toned dictionary thought. There were lots of possibilities for dares. Suddenly, something clicked in her mind.

"Hm, I dare you to.. change any definition in my pages!" Book exclaimed. The rest looked at her with a confused look.

"Okay!" Pillow beamed as she opened Book. She scrolled through the pages, finding the B section. "Basketball.. Balloony.. aha! Book!" She mumbled.

She got a pencil and erased the definition. Book fell, as she had no definition. Pillow spun the pencil in her fingers. She thought and thought until she had the perfect idea.

"A deranged lunatic ready to murder anything and anyone.. done!" Pillow quietly exclaimed. Price Tag looked at the pillow in disgust.

"Are you SERIOUS!?" They yelled. Pillow nodded as she closed Book. She snapped awake, but she felt nauseous. She was about to fall from her place, but Bomby held her upright.

"Whatever you.. you did won't happen immediately. The effects of.. of.. uh.. definition changing kicks in in about a few.. uh, hours.." Book said. Pillow groaned in disappointment.

"So my plan won't work?"

"What.. plan..?"

"You know, the plan to.. nevermind. Just, truth or dare?"

"Truth. I have nothing to hide after all."

Bomby adjusted the hat he was wearing to cover his fuse. He then held his blanket in suspense.

"Uh.. what was the worst murder you did?" Pillow asked. Book's face turned red in embarrassment. She began to stammer.

"Uh.. I- I once.. I uh.. I once killed Coiny over a sandwich when recovery centers were still around. I.. I.. uh.. what was I saying again?" Book paused for a moment to refresh her mind.

"Oh yeah! I was talking about death. So, I stabbed him with a sharp stick right in the eye. It's not like I'll do that again." Book joked.

"Woah, uh.. that's gruesome." Naily sheepishly said. Book facepalmed at herself. She opened the curtains in the room. Pillow winced at the sudden moonlight outside of the window.

"Guys, it's getting late. I think we should sleep." Book suggested. Everyone looked at her in a confused way.

"It's only 9:00!" Price Tag exclaimed. Well, they were right. 9:00 was an early time to sleep at for most of the crew. But for Book, it was a good time.

She was managing her health, so her sleeping habits were normal. But for the rest, they stayed up late at night. Either chatting with one another or doing a hobby.

"Fine.." Book mumbled under her breath. Bomby cheered, while Pillow just sat there, smiling.

"Hey Book, could we play some video games and eat some snacks?" Price Tag asked. Book just rolled her eyes and shrugged.

"Knock yourselves out. I'll join you guys!" Book exclaimed. Price Tag and Cake ran downstairs. They got to the living room and turned on the console.

Book ran downstairs, but something told her to isolate herself from everyone. She remembered what Pillow said about her. You know, her definition.

The dictionary heard her friends chattering and giggling downstairs. She wanted to join, but she wanted to keep her friends safe and sound.

Price Tag eyed the stairs and saw book just.. sitting there. They 'waved' at her, and she waved back.

"Haha! I win!" Pillow beamed. Bomby snarled before picking up the controller again. "Pillow, you always win. Give us some chances!"

"Nope! Cry all you want!"

"Ugh, Pillow, be mature!"

"Cake, at least I don't gush over some ivory.. cube thing."

Cake looked to the side and groaned. She was right, but Loser was his idol. Cake looked back at Pillow and snatched the controller from her.

"Hey!" She exclaimed. She ran after Cake while the rest of Just Not continued the game without them.

But Book still felt uneasy. She thought of what Pillow said. Would she be okay...? Was this just a prank? But knowing Pillow, she was serious.

Completely serious.
