The Birds and the Bees [Sollux X Reader]

Cheek Pinches & Fluffy Stuff

~Your P.O.V~

After a while I had to let the group of trolls into my humble abode because they wouldn't go away. They all claimed that they knew me, but I had no idea who any of them were. "So let me try again, you're Kanaya", I said pointing to a rather slim troll that had the smile of an angel, but the caring of a well-natured mother. "Yes, that is correct", She replied with a firm nod of her head. "Alright, I kinda got it now, let's see." I took in a deep breath called them all out, " You're Aranea, You're usually at the library, You're Kurloz and you don't speak because of the whole mouth-area-situation, You are Nepeta and you never stop talking in Roleplay form, You would be Karkat and you have a little attitude at most points, but you're my Moirail, so I am obligated to cherish you otherwise, And lastly you're Sollux and you've been my best friend since the early stages of my life." The last part came out kinda squeaky due to the fact that I was lacking oxygen. They all just stared at me as if I never had amnesia in the first place. "What, this is what you all told me." Aranea spoke first, "Yes, but we never imagined that you would take this all in so fast, you did just come out of the human medical center, so we thought that it would take longer for you to process the information that we displayed upon you." Does she ever kinda Not talk soo much. Not to be rude, its just weird in a sense. "That was......fast, I never thought that you would catch on that fast", Karkat noted. He still looked kinda off, like something was bothering him, but he just wouldn't say. I reached out and pinched his grey cheek, "Are you trying to say that I'm somewhat stupid?", I teased while wiggling the loose skin around. "No, I'm not, fuck, that hurts, let go!" He tried to pry my hand off. Little did he know about my grip of steel. I soon let go of his cheek as he rubbed it tenderly.

I looked over at Sollux only to see him looking to the floor. How could I think that my best friend was my stalker? When I told him about this he looked at me with an expersion that could make tears come to your eyes without notice. I moved from my spot on the couch to sit next to him, but it seems like he didn't notice. Only when I tap on his shoulder does he give me the slightest glance, "Hm?", Was all he muttered. "You doin' okay over here, Sollux?" He looked back to the floor and sighed, "No, I'm not doing tho good, im the one that thupothed to protect you, and I failed." He pulled his hands to his face and covered it. I gave him a weird look and then smiled, I slowly took his hands away from his teary face and made him look at me, "Hey, I know you're probably feeling like its your fault for all of this, but all in all its mine. You may feel like your obligated to protect me from any source of danger there is, when really you know you cant. I was the one who wasn't looking crossing that street, and I won't allow you to just sit here and wallow in your shallow pool of self-guilt. You're my best friend Sollux, and you always will be no matter what through thick and thin." I form a small smile and hug him gently. After a second or two I feel warm arms wrap around me and a soft sigh escape from his lips, "What am I gonna do with you?" I can here the smile in his voice, and that's all I need.
