NOVAxLucas

((This song is special to me. It helped me through a lot, I have very bad confidence and self-esteem. I've tried to get better, and this song has helped)).

•NOVA POV•
Requested by... @NOVATheHedgehog14 (me)

(Anything involving NOVA that confused you look at her book, same goes with Lucas).

I stretched out my arms and looked to my side. Lucas laid on his side, facing away from me. I smiled at his sleeping body and kissed the back of his neck. I slid out of bed and immediately a Ruby flew to my leg. She still wasn't used to the ship rocking back and forth.

I sat down on the couch, now bolted to the floor. We still didn't have any doors, since we lived in the small house boat. The only door was to the bathroom. Our lives had come together perfectly on Bygone Island. We were great friends with Sonic and his friends. Sonic even came to visit me time to time. He's a great brother, I'm glad I found him.

I heard Lucas growl in his sleep from the couch. Ruby looked up from my lap and over to Lucas. She realized nothing was there and went back to my lap. I took in a deep breath as my stomach growled.

"If Lucas was awake... He'd make me eat..." I noted to myself. I looked down at my belly. I pulled up my shirt just enough to to where it stopped above my belly. "I don't need breakfast today. I probably won't need lunch either." I didn't feel full, but I didn't feel hungry. Or maybe I did, I don't know.

"N-NOVA?" Lucas yawned and sat up. "Hey babe! Nice to see you up and ready for the day!" I said, probably too cheery. "Yeah... I'm kinda hungry. You eat already?" He asked me as he rubbed his eyes. "Uhh... Yeah, I had some cereal." I lied to him. He simply nodded and groggily rolled out of bed.

"I'm heading out to town later. You coming?" He asked from the kitchen, if you can even call it that. "Uhh... I guess? You wanna come too, Ruby?" Ruby nodded frantically. I giggled at her and kissed her forehead. "My sweet chao, you weren't made for water, were you?"

•Later•

I had one of my earbuds in as I walked around the market with Lucas. He had an arm around my waist. As I walked, I stared at the ground, trying my best not to make eye contact with the townspeople. I felt like they were watching me, waiting for me to mess up. Waiting for me to fail. How many times had I failed people before?

"I wish I could cross my arms and cross your mind 'Cause I believe you'd unfold your paper heart and wear it on your sleeve."

Almost immediately I felt like nothing. I didn't want to be here anymore. I felt the tears in my eyes swell up. "Hey... Uhm... I'm gonna go home, Lucas." I said, trying to hide my emotional voice. "What? Why? Are you okay? Need me to come?"

"No... J-Just take Ruby." I handed him Ruby, who had been comfortably sleeping in my arms.

I smiled at Lucas and kissed his nose. "Thank you." Is all I said before I ran towards our boat.

•At The Boat•

You know when you're crying and you stare at yourself in the mirror? Is that supposed to do something? I always thought it was just confusion. Like, to see how bad or miserable the pain is.

Well, I was doing that. I was just staring at myself. I had locked the boats door. I hoped Lucas wouldn't return soon. I wanted to break the bathroom mirror. It was just- I was staring at myself. Who would want to look at me? Lucas, is what my mind told me. But I felt like his love was out of pity. No one... loves me. How could anyone love... this?
