Reader's p.o.v:
It's been about a week since eridan woke up yelling in the middle of the night, and they planned on returning to their home tomorrow morning. I lay in my bed, face in my pillow. I've been in this position for a while now, almost every hour of every day, crying my eyes out. I was hurting, and hurting bad. I was about to hop in the shower, or was thinking about doing so, when I got a knock on the door. Eridan walked in and I glanced up at him.
"Uhm....hey..." he said. 'Hey?' Is that all he could say?
"Hi...whats up?" I managed.
"So, uhm.... You knoww me and Fef are planning on leavving tomorroww, right?"
Don't remind me.
"Yeah, I know. What about it?"
Just leave, I thought to myself. You hurt me and you're going to leave anyways, so dont go and make this harder than it has to be.
Eridan hesitated, sitting next to me on the bed. I sat up and without warning, he hugged me tightly.
"Listen...im so sorry about all of this... evverything that happened betwween me an you...but I don't wwant to leave wwithout tying up all loose ends. I wwanted to say I'm sorry I wwas a total jerk to you..."
I felt tears threaten to fall from my eyes yet again, and I hugged him back.
"I forgive you, Eridan." Part of me didn't want to say these words, but I felt like I meant them.
When we broke from the kiss, Eridan kissed me on the lips. No warning, nothing. I was shocked for a second, and I could tell he was just as shocked when he pulled away.
"Shit- I'm so sorry I didn't mean to-"
"I-It's fine..." I shuddered.
"I think I should go...." he started, but he hesitated and didn't leave my bedside. He turned back to me and kissed me again, this time on purpose. The kiss lasted longer this time and when we broke apart, part of me wishes he continued.
"That time, I meant to do that... bye." And with that, Eridan left the room one last time. I touched my lips where he has kissed me and realized one thing...
I kissed back...
