„a Sixer, please."

love therapy

POV Bill
I felt something wet running down my face.
I am actually crying

The last time I actually cried was when I got drunk at that pub after Sixer left me.
And now I'm here, standing in front of the exact same Sixer, who is now telling me that he regretted the night with me, no, that he regretted EVERYTHING he EVER did with me.

It felt like someone is grabbing my heart so harshly that it is on the edge of exploding. I feel like getting suffocated by my own emotions.
Stupid meat sack emotions.
I suddenly feel all dizzy as if someone just punched my guts?? What is that?

I have to escape this situation with him. I can't take it another minute.

Something made click deep in me and I shoot my head up.
„You are weak, Stanford", i said before I could stop myself.
I don't know what suddenly took my control of my own meat sack away, but I'm not regretting it.
After those words I felt something snap between us. I don't know what it was, I only wanted to get away from Sixer.

Without another word or glance I went out of his room. Until then I noticed that it was our leash bound that snapped between us.
How did that happened? Did Sixer do it because he was so annoyed at me?

Since I'm free something in me screamed to run away to see if Sixer would come search and care for me, but on the other side this creature seeking for me and my locked up powers is still out there and would be the death of me.
As someone who was immortal once, I'm obviously scared of dying.

I decided to just lock myself into my room till this pain in me goes away.
I passed by Stan and the twins but I did not acknowledge them and just locked my door behind me.

I laid down on my bed trying to deal with these overwhelming feelings.
I suddenly felt a shoot of anger in me and beat my pillow imagining it would be the stupid face of that nerd.

I nearly ripped the pillow apart as I heard a knock on my door. Was it Sixer? A part of me wanted to see him desperately but a bigger part of me was sure I would straight up punch him in his face.
„Go away Sixer", I said pushing my face into the pillow.
„Will, it's me, Mabel"
Shooting Star? What is she doing here?
I'm not in the mood to have her glitter personality around me.
„Go away too", i said rather harshly.

„I'm not going away till you cheer up again."
„Why do you even care?"
„Because even though we don't know each other well I don't want you to be sad. Especially since you live here with my Grunkels you're like family now, and I don't want my family to be sad", the girl said in a pity tone.

I looked up from my pillow towards the door.
‚you're like family'
Somehow that sentence touched me.
The last time i had the feeling of a family was before i liberated my home dimension....very dark memories that just make my mood even worse.

I stood up and opened my door.
Mabel scanned over me and her eyes just screamed pure pity.
Did i look that bad?

„Aww, you poor thing.", yep, i fucking look that bad. „What happened?", the girl added.
I sat down on my bed with a big sigh. Should i tell her what happened? I can't, I would have to admit to her everything and by that I would admit that I'm actually Bill and not William. And I can especially not tell her that her Grunkel fucked me last night.
„I don't know if I should tell you.", I finally said as she sat down beside me.

„You don't need to tell me. I can simply be here for you. Maybe we can do something to clear your mind", she smiled comforting.
Maybe that isn't a bad idea. If I don't calm down soon I will destroy the whole room just like I ripped and beat up my pillow before.

„Well, what could we do?", I asked her still not looking at her.
It's so weird, I was once the monster she feared the most and now I'm sitting here beside her after crying like a baby. How pathetic. At least she doesn't know who she's actually talking with.

„Hmm, we could play a round of uno!", she said with a smile and takes out a pack of cards out of her kitty pullover. I'm honestly surprised that she didn't lost her love for weird pullovers in the past 3 years.

I eyed her and the pack of cards and shrugged my shoulders. „We could try it", and so we started to play uno.
A round turned into 2,
Then 3, and maybe after the 5th round we started to talk about what happened.

„....and that how I ended up crying like a baby.", I ended the story.
Mabel looked at me with big eyes, the pity in her face still being there.
God, I feel so weak
„Aww Will-", she said as she embraced me in a sudden hug. I felt my body tensing.
„Grunkel Ford had no right to treat you like that, especially not after your...fun? Night?", I could hear that she was a bit creeped out that I got fucked by her Grunkel but she didn't care that much.

„I just don't get him, like last night he seemed to actually want it, JUST THE WAY HE EVEN LOOKS AT HIM, and now he regrets it, I don't get it. I thought everything was turning okay again.", I said looking away.
„You know my Grunkel is smart, but he is not smart when it comes to subjects like feelings or relationships between humans. He is a nerd so it's no surprise. But I'm sure everything will turn out the good way between you some day.", she said caressing my back, probably as comfort. I'm really not used to this all hugging stuff. Especially not from someone I wanted to turn into a corpse three years ago.
But I decided to return her hug after some time.

„You two should take some time to make up your mind and then talk about your feelings. And if anything is you still have me to talk to okay?"
I slightly smiled at the girl.
„Thank you, shooting star."

Shit- why the fuck did I call her that?

I saw how her eyes widened. „Why did you call me that? The only one who named me like that was-" „your hair clip!", I interrupted her.
„You always wear these shooting star hair clips.", I said quickly, in hopes that her brain doesn't make the connection to the actual me.

And it seemed to work because she started to giggle.
Damn, that girl really is naive.

A little Mabel love therapist and hopeless patient Bill chapter.
Hope you liked it.
I wanted to focus more on Mabel in this one because other fanfics only revolve around Ford and Bill, but I want to give the others also some show time.
Like building up their relationship with their new "family" member and how their view of the situation is.
