'...what the fuck?!?'

'What the fuck?!?!?!?'

'WHAT THE FUUUUUCK?!?!?!?!?'

I mentally scream before shoving Sean/Creek off me and slapping him instinctively in the face. He looks to the ground like he isn't shocked by my reaction. Just calmly spits up some blood from the smack on to the floor like I AM OVERREACTING?!

"w-what? w-why did you?..." I mumble trying to put a coherent sentence together amongst many unsettling thoughts and emotions, and apparently my awesome fucking mouth just says amidst my inner demons (and apparent outer one now...) "Y-Your my cousin you know...."

YEA NO FUCKING SHIT ME!!!!!

He just chuckles and shrugs, "Hey if I hadn't done it how else to explain feelings that fucked up...you wouldn't have put it together" He just looks at me as I scramble as far away from him as I can in this fucking pot....kettle....I don't know I got other shit I am dealing with right now to be mentally be speaking to fucking nothing!

I just stare at him scared still trying to process I mean what do I say, How the fuck do I defend myself if this gets worse? Honestly I would prefer boiling hot water right now and be served right out to the nearest Bergen then deal with this fucking incestuous bullshit. Yet, He is Sean... the only family I have left and was my best friend all through childhood.

He watches me sadly before rocking back and sitting down calmly, he is keeping his mint green hair out now which I kinda wish he would go back to being Creek. Apparently Creek is the sane one... Yet, he puts his hands to his mouth and has a glossed over expression for a second now.

"I know it is a lot to take in... but you were always perfect in my eyes (Y/N)" He smiles and hugs his legs letting me have the space I guess like it is the least he could do after the mindfuck."Ever since auntie... your mom brought you to meet us for the first time, I was 3 a-and you made my heart stop the minute I saw you." I shake my head like I could prevent myself from hearing the words leaving his mouth right now. "I mean look at me the reason I am not negative like you right now... the reason I never gave up is to find you again, your memories, all of you has kept me happy all this time and it made me never lose hope..."

"Shut the fuck up! I am your COUSIN Sean" I cry out, "You were my best friend yea, but that is the MAX that could ever and will ever be h-how do you? What do I? a-and I do not know what to do right now cause I don't want you to ever be hurt I couldn't then either, b-but I also wanna murder you and scrape my brains out right now" There is nothing I could ever say that will make sense to anyone.

"I wanna make a deal..." He says after a minute, "No matter what I am not letting you die here...I will lock you in a cage if I have to" He mumbles and looks disappointed at the thought.

"But if you agree to stay with me willingly, I will take you out of here now and I won't let your boyfriend...friend whatever and the others get eaten" He says.

"I- I always wanted you (Y/N), even if it's not exactly like I want, I want you next to me forever" he says smiling moving a little closer to me and sadly I can't move away any further, unlike him with my negativity I can't just yeet myself out of this situation.

"I-I mean you remember the happy times right we can have that the rest of our lives just you and I and no one could hurt us again." He continues and puts his hands on my shoulders to get me to keep eye contact with him instead of letting my head keep up its search for escape.

I am trapped and he knows it...

I look at him and the memories keep coming back to me and I can't lie, when I lost my parents he was everything to me. Not in this fucking incest way and all of me wants to cling to that, the memories of Sean who would sneak snacks out of cabinets and stay up all night talking to him about young idiot crushes (which makes my stomach curl now knowing he wanted it to be him), or hang up in the tree in the middle of Bergen town seeing who could hold on the longest, just be a family and friends again. But no I can't, cause I know he is gonna push it I can tell in his eyes if I go willingly I won't be just his cousin, or his best friend this time. I cry and shake my head no.

He goes a little dim his skin slightly going dark almost like a glitch I guess but not glitchy as it goes back and forth. He sighs and stands finally giving me my space back and I sigh in relief as he rips his hair pulling himself out of my pot prison. Sadly the relief didn't last long "Fine then, guess I need to get my acting ready then all of them are toast..." I feel my chest tighten as I start trying to fight my way up, but I know full well I can't

"Like I said I wanted you to come willingly, but fine either way I still have you" He says and winks down at me.

"I will have the rest of our lives when this is over for you to forgive me and accept your new reality, I promised when we were kids to always protect you didn't I?"


Author's note: So.... not gonna lie I always like messed up twists and I planned this at one point the Sean thing, but got a little weird to write and I will warn you it will get uncomfortable with it for a while at points as we go farther. Just heads up if you continue. Also, I am gonna work on fixing up chapters before this all tonight so I can focus on writing on without cringing as I look back out my previous chapter, but wanted to get another out to show you I am indeed officially back.
