Jonathan's Death

Sock doesn't know what finally pushed Jonathan over the edge. And... He didn't really know how he felt about it. Sock and Jonathan were never together. Since Sock was dead and Jonathan wasn't. Not that they never talked about it... Oh they did. But now that Jonathan was gone, sock felt like something was missing in his afterlife.

And how Sock found out, wasn't exactly the best.

You see, Sock had been going over some things in his head and needed to talk to the one person other than his charge who would actually listen.

When Sock reached his boss' office, he could hear someone inside at the moment so he waited outside the door in one of the uncomfortable chairs. "I'm going to need you to sort through the hall of crippling phobias for the rest of eternity." He could hear Mephistopheles say. Funny. That was supposed to be Jonathan's job.

"Hold on. I need to get someone." The door opens and Mephistopheles pokes his head around the door. "Sowachowski! Just the demon I needed to see! Come on in I have something I need to show you." His boss grabs his shoulder and drags him in.

"Meet the newest addition to Hell." He says pushing Sock forward so he could see the newbie.

"J-Jon?" Sock stutters. Jonathan looks up and waves at his friend. "Hey Sock." "W-Why would you- How did you-" Sock couldn't finish anything he was saying.

"I'll just leave you two here." Mephistopheles says with a wink before leaving his office.

"Why Jon?" Sock asks, tears brimming his eyes. "Wasn't that the entire point of your job?" Jonathan asks confused. "To get me to kill myself?" Jonathan crosses his arms over his chest. "Y-Yea but... You had your whole life ahead of you! You didn't even get married and have kids, let alone finish high school! Why would you just throw your whole life away!?" Sock sobs.

He didn't even know why he was crying. Everything was just kinda happening really quickly.

Jonathan places his hand on Sock's trembling shoulder. "Hey, this was my choice. Besides. I never really liked girls in the first place." Jonathan say with a smirk. "What do you-" Sock was cut off when a pair of lips attached themselves to his own. Sock pushed Jonathan away.

"So you're telling me you killed yourself so you could be with me!?" Jonathan rubs his arm nervously. "Yes?" He says. It was almost a question. Sock laughs a little before floating over to hug Jonathan.

"I'm not saying I approve, but I appreciate it. This never would have happened if I never killed myself. We would have found each other eventually don't you think?" Sock asked. "You would still be alive and semi happy. Or whatever you were when I met you." Sock says wrapping his arms around Jonathan's neck and burying his face in the crook of his neck.

Jonathan chuckles. "I never really felt appreciated when I was alive, but when I'm with you... I forget all that." Jonathan whispers the last part so only Sock could hear him. Sock laughs happily. "You're just a big sap!" He exclaims, pressing his lips to Jonathan's. Jonathan goes bright red as the door opens.

"Everything good in he-" Mephistopheles opens the door and pokes his head in. When he sees the two, his eyes go wide. "NOT in my office!" He yells. Sock laughs and floats off of Jonathan.

"Ok you two. Here's the deal." Mephistopheles says rubbing his temple. "I don't care what you guys do. I'm not Providence. But not in my office! Take it to your place Sowachowski!" Mephistopheles yells pointing to the door. Sock laughs again and grabs Jonathan's hand, dragging him out the door. "I'll be expecting you in early tomorrow Sock. For your new assignment." He sighs closing the door after the two.

"What the fuck did I just witness?"  Mephistopheles mutters under his breath.
