SMILING FRIENDS ONESHOTS

Grim finally grows his wings 😌

(This is after the series, toxic ish gnargrim, pretty much just them)

Grim stood infront of the mirror, grumbling in frustration. His wings still hadn't grown in yet, and he was much more than old enough to get them.

Gnarly knocked on the bathroom door, startling Grim a bit. "Dude, are you done yet." Grim snarled back as he was already not happy about being wingless. "Give me a fucking minute, you weasel." He snapped back.

After sighing and washing his face like he was originally going to do, he left the bathroom and slithered (I have no idea how this works so bear with me here) to the bedroom. He found his boyfriend there, watching some trashy show.

Despite Grim being an asshole (and so was Gnarly) they still did love each other. It was just a bit hard to express it. "What are you watching." Grim grumbled, though under the sheets he was reaching for his lover's hand.

Gnarly held his hand, sparing his boyfriend a glance before responding. "Some dumb reality show. Wanna watch something else?" Grim nodded. Leaning slightly onto Gnarly.

Gnarly looked down at his boyfriend, seeing Grim wasn't his usual self. "What's up with you?" Gnarly asked the smaller bug, showing some concern. "Fuck off." Grim retorted instantly.

Gnarly rolled his eyes. "Come on man I know somethings wrong. Your being toxic or whatever. Remember what the therapist said." Grim sighed. Gnarly did have a point, and they both promised each other they'd try to get better to each other.

"My wings are taking too damn long." Grim finally confessed, though staring at the screen instead of his partner. "Look at that stupid Pim. He's got wings. I wish I could tear them off and have them as mine."

"That would be sick. But then it's like mutilation or whatever so I can't. You can't. Bummer." Grim snarled a bit, trying to keep his extremely short temper in check. "You're not helping," Grim continued on his rant, "I want to fly. I want to do things on my own, and I don't want to take the stupid bus or have you fly me around. It's dumb. My body is dumb."

Gnarly felt bad. He felt bad for having wings—and especially that one time where he made fun of Grim for being flightless. "Don't think about yourself like that, maybe that's just the way it is. And yeah sometimes nature and genes are assholes or whatever but I like you the way you are. I don't care if you have wings or you don't. All I really care about is you being here and loving me or something like that. I dont know. You wanna watch some fail YouTube clips?"

Grim smiled, rembering how good it felt to smile. "Yeah," He spoke as he rested his head on Gnarlys shoulder to rest. "I'd like that."

The next morning, Grim awoke with two pains in his back. Great, if he wasn't already miserable with the pain starting to radiate all over his back and shoulders. He got out of bed, stretching as Gnarly awoke as well from the bed jostling.

"G'morning." Gnarly mumbled, his eyes not quite adjusted to the light coming through the blinds. Grim hummed half a response as he grabbed the day old bottle of water from the bedside table. He took about 2 sips but at the end of the second one, the bottle was finished. Weird. Grim didn't think about it too long and went to make coffee.

Grim shuffled to the kitchen, turning on the coffee maker and preparing everything. Grim splashed some cold water on his face from the sink while waiting for the coffee.

Gnarly walked in, his chest bare along with some pajama pants on.  Gnarly looked at Grim, seeing he had some wings. ... then he did a double take and he actually just noticed what the hell happened. "Dude what the hell."

Grim turned. "What?" Gnarly wanted to say it, but felt this was important for Grim. "Go look in the mirror but with your back in frame." Grim felt hope (something he hadn't felt in a while) so he didn't question him and quickly scurried to the bathroom.

There, he kept the door open and turned around to see a pair of beautiful dark purple and lilac wings attached to his back. He couldn't belive it. This wasn't real and Gnarly was surely playing a trick on him.

Grim tugged on the wings slightly, feeling them actually being attached to him. He had actual wings on his back, and they were his. His wings. His wings were on his back.

Grim openly began to weep. This was his dream and it was happening. No more taking public transportation, no more worring about falling when Gnarly flew him around. He could fly. He could finally fly.

His lover wrapped his arms around him in an embrace on the bathroom floor. Grim weeped into his arms happily. All the insecurities were gone. All the doubts, gone. This was like a boulder being lifted off his shoulders for the first time in years.

"Alright man," Gnarly spoke to his boyfriend who had just newly gained flight. "Now you're gonna just flap your wings first. Don't fly off any edges until your ready." Grim nodded, a soft smile on his face, still happy about the event that had happened a week ago.

Grim took a deep breath in and out as he started flapping his wings, starting to come a bit off the ground. "Aw sick dude you're doing it!" Gnarly exclaimed as Grim's little feet detached from the ground as he began floating in the air.

Grim happily flapped about, enjoying his new ability. He giggled excitedly, a bright smile on his face. Gnarly smiled too, watching him. "Alright dude, don't tire your wings out. Let's go back home." Grim nodded. "Actually, just one thing first."

"Dude, why are we at Pims apartment? And why did we bring a pie?" Gnarly asked, as Grim knocked on the door. "Just for a little surprise." Grim said evilly.

Pim opened the door cheerfully. "Hello Grim!" Grim grinned. "Hello pim." He said, cunningly. Pim looked and saw that Grim had gotten his wings. "Oh! You finally got your wings, Grim. This is wonderful." Grim slowly smiled into a somehow more evil than before grin. "Hey pim." "Yeah?"

Grim took the pie and smashed into pims face, cackling. "Mwhahaha! Take that! Let's go, Gnarly, let's leave this loser," He said with a snarky tone to his voice, "to sit in his gullibility!" Gnarly chuckled too, them running away as poor pim sat there :(.
