HermitCraft One Shots - Multi Ships

Tango X Grian

No one has seen Grian around for the past couple of days. Some of the more concerned hermits, such as myself went out looking for him.

Impulse was going to check the permit office and Xisuma's shop right beside it. Mumbo and Scar were going to check each of their bases, Gem and Skizz's bases around Cherry Mountain. And I was going to check his base.

For an entire hour, none of us has seen the blond. Mumbo had checked his entire base, and was now asking every hermit meanwhile Impulse had met up with Bdubs and was searching every building in the cyberpunk city.

Wels and Hypno had decided to start helping by going to everyone's bases and checking each of them too.

I went back around his base again. But this time, I called his name. And heard a small quiet sniffle in return. My heart dropped. Another sniffle. There! The kitchen island cupboard made for muffin or cake tins. They all must have been moved somewhere else.

I slowly opened the door of the cupboard and saw Grian wrapped up in a fuzzy blanket like a burrito. I found it cute but I was more worried than anything.

"Can I touch you?" He barely nodded so I put my hand on his shoulder and rubbed it a bit. It was quiet and I began to wonder how I missed the sniffles the twenty times I've checked in here. Another sniffle caught me off guard.

"Do you want to come out?" I whispered. "It's okay if you don't." My phone buzzed. Probably a check in if anyone found him yet. I didn't answer. I just kept my eyes on him. He nodded a bit and got untangled.

Once he was out, I spoke up again. "Do you want to be held? Or sit on the sofa?" He looked up at me, tears in his blue eyes. "I won't ask what's wrong because you clearly don't want to tell me. And that's okay." He nodded and crawled into my open arms. I took his blanket and re-wrapped it around him again as it was very messily wrapped.

He put his face in my neck and I repositioned us so that my back was up against the sink with him laying bridal style in my arms. I heated my body up a bit for some comfort for him and it seemed to work as he curled up and melted against me. I smiled a bit at his cuteness.

"It's okay. Set some sleep. I'll be right here when you wake up. I promise." With that, it didn't take me long to hear the gentle slow breathing that signifyed he was asleep.

I grabbed my phone from the floor behind him and promptly texted the chat that I found him but he was asleep and that no one is alloud to interrupt us.

However, that didn't stop X from private messaging me to say he was still coming over. He used the excuse that he was "Mommy Suma" To which I responded. His response to this? "Papa K, Mommy Suma, Uncle Biffa and Grandpa Tin." I rolled my eyes and smiled again.
