Body & Soul

Chapter three Boyfriend?

Sollux's eyes shot wide open falling off the side of his bed right on que for the sound of his alarm clock to beat mercilessly at his ears. "muther fucker..." He cursed under his breath taking time to stand up while his alarm blared loudly. "Oh? Wwhats this?" Eridan stood next to him fully dressed and inspecting the small device that sounded like it purtruded from the pit of all that is unholy. Sollux squinted his eyes, searching his nightstand for his glasses only to have them handed to him. "oh...thank you." He mumbled incoherently. Sliding them up the bridge of his nose he focused his eyes on Eridan who'd by now stopped the alarm and was rudely pressing random buttons on it as he glared at the small box. "Wwhat do you call this thing?" "An alarm clock, now put iit down." Sollux rubbed his eyes underneath his glass' lenses. "More like and evvil torcher devvice made just to spite me and the entire wworld!" He shouted infuriated as he smashed the buttons for a reaction. "Eriidan-" "Y'knoww wwhat, I'll do you this favvor free a' charge." "Ok." Sollux mumble watching Eridan move behind him. He turned his head just to see what would happen. Eridan raised it in the air in catapulted the damn thing out the window, shattered glass littered his roof. "Your wwelcome, I just savved your life from responsabilities noww let's havve some fun." "Eriidan what the fuck!?" "Yes?" Eridan sat bewildered upon his bed in a seductive position. "You can't do 2hiit liike thii2!" "Wwhatevver are you talking about?" Eridan smiled innocently. "Catapultiing my 2hiit out the wiindow!" Eridan shrugged it off as no big deal. "And here I did you a favvor and your already yelling at me, wwho taught you manners young man?" "My Aunt Ro2a." Sollux stood from the carpet of his floor walking into his closet. Looking for a shirt I wear he parted the clothes to se Eridan appear in front of him. "Wwatcha' doin'?" "Get out." Eridan getting frustrated began to mess with him in every way possible. Poking his face nonstop like an attention starved child. "Pay attention to meeeeeeeeee!" "No." "Hmph!" Eridan sat down hugging his knees to his chest in defeat while he pouted. A devious smile crept it's way onto his lips as he reached one of his wings out popping Sollux on the back of the head. "Ack-hey!" Sollux turned around eyeing Eridan who acted innocent, taking an "interest" in some old box of family photos. "Hmm." Sollux gave him a look of suspicion before resuming his search for a decent article of clothing. Eridan saw this as another chance to mess with the poor soul, reaching out his bat-like wing to land another smack right on the back of his head. "Eriidan!" "Wwhat?" "II know that2 you!" "Wwhat are you talking about Sol?" 'A niickname?' "Could you plea2e let me get through today wiithout haviing to acknowledge that there2 a demon pro2tiitute eatiing my 2oul." Eridan growled personally walking over and hitting him on the back of the skull. "I'm. Not. A. Prostitute! I'm just someone wwho made a horrible mistake so let's just get this ovver wwith." '2o he'2 gotta back2tory?' "Your school is starting so I'd get dressed soon...unless of course you need my help~?" He winked only to be shoved out of the closet. "Nope."

After getting dressed and ready and about to walk out the door with the demon trailing behind him. He stopped. "Oh no, no, no, you're 2tayiing here mii2ter." "Wwhy?!" "I can't ju2t go out iin publiic lettiing everyone know I 2old my 2oul to 2atan!" "Wwhy not~?" "II hate you." Eridan shrugged, it not being the first time for someone to reject him. "Wwe're soul bound Sollux, I havve to followw you." "2iigh...could you at lea2t moderniize your2elf or dii2guii2e your2elf to look liike a normal human beiing?" Eridan replied with a smirk. "Noww you're using your brain Captor, shall I rewward the knight wwith a kiss?" "No thank2 priince22." Eridan .pouted before his wings and horns disappeared. He dressed in a purple coat with the cuff of the sleeves black, a blue striped scarf aroun his neck, black jeans just as well as his shoes. His black hair contrasting with his skin making him look adorably pale and his eyes turned a crystal-like violet. "Meh, loo2e the riing2, you look like a hiip2ter." Eridan scoffed. "I nevver asked for your opinion." "You look liike a vampiire." Sollux snickered. "Hmph!" Sollux strode down the sidewalk, the infuriated and unholy creature following behind.

The quick patter of footsteps nearing behind them were swift and giddy. "PAWLLUX WAIT FURR M3!!!!" A short girl in a green jacket that seemed to blur with the speed of her running as she pounced on Sollux's back sending him to the hard concrete sidewalk. A rough landing rendering him to grumble under his breath with the cat girl on top of him. "NP." He growled in which she paid no mind and made her self comfortable whilst staring up at Eridan whom loomed over the two, a smirk darted at Sollux. "Who ar3 you mistpurr?" Eridan smiled wider taking her small figure. (What a creep X3) "Hello swweetie, noww wwhat might your name be?" "Eriidan..." Sollux grunted feeling Nepeta resituate on his back. "N3p3ta! And I'm gu3ssing your nam3 is 3ridan-Oh!" Nepeta hopped off of Sollux to grab her phone. "Ar3 m3w his boyfurrend?!" "No! No he ii2 not!" Sollux was quick to protest and deny her accusations, standing up, hands clutched into fists, and at his sides as he towered over the small girl. "Sol, dear howw could you!" Eridan made a hurt pouty face. "WHAT?!" Sollux stood paralyzed and shocked, his mouth slightly open and shaped in horror. "Wwhy wwould you hide your lovve for me darling, howw could you?" Nepeta scowled at poor defenseless Sollux. "Pawllux m3w ar3 truly awfurrul!" Sollux glared sharp pointed daggers at Eridan who smirked before continuing his successful attempts to anger him, putting on the most sympathetic look he could muster. "Pawllux m3w b3tt3r apologiz3 to this poor man, you man harlot." Nepeta scolded earning an astonished look from Sollux. "Eriidan, what the hell?!" "No! Don't talk to me!" Eridan crossed his arms trying to hold back the laughter soon to tear its way from his throat. "Nepeta?" A deep sultry voice questioned, the cat girl spun on her heel turning towards the derection in which the voice emenated from. Her scowl quickly replaced with a smile as she saw her brother Equius approaching the drama stage. "SOLLUX?" Karkat coming up behind him.

"Karkitty, Pawllux has a boyfurrend!"

"WHAT?!"

Sollux isn't having a very good day.

(Hahaha someone kill me X3)
