"Hey (Y-Y/N)."

"Hmm?"

I hummed in response. Dust had been acting a little strange since the hospital. He had completely healed, but it was like he was very....careful around me.

"How w-was i-it?"

"Was what?"

"Y-your past."

I paused, but didn't freeze up. Sighing, I pulled him to sit. We were at a park and had just walked around. The sun was setting, making the sky look like it was ablaze.

"Did they already tell you?"

"Y-yes..."

"Then what is to ask?"

"I m-mean like...does i-it still scare y-you?"

I thought for a bit.

"...yeah. You could say that."

"A-are you still s-suicidal?"

"...yeah."

Before I could react, two skeletal arms wrapped around me.

"D-dust?!"

"(Y/N). Please. Don't ever think that way. It's different now. You're surrounded by people that care. People that want the best for you. People that love you."

"Are you saying-"

"Yes, (Y/N). I love you. Not platonically."

He removed his arms to look straight into my (e/c) eyes. I stared into his red pupils. He cupped my face and leaned in. When the gap was closed, I felt it. A warm, comforting feeling. Like all my sadness was washed away. It lasted for a little longer before he pulled away. Our faces were warm with blush as we stared into one another's eyes lovingly. I smiled and took his hand. As we stood up, our fingers intertwined.

"Come here. You need to see something."

Dust lead me and told me to close my eyes. I complied and felt him leading me up a hill.

"You can open your eyes now."

I did and was about to say something when I saw it. My mouth was agape at the view. The sun was barely visible on the horizon and the sky was turning dark. The Stars glittered and there was no light pollution where Dust had stopped. Strips of color were present in the stars. Like bright ribbons on black wit white speckled.

"Dust it's beautiful."

"Not as beautiful as you."

~timeskip~

It was well into the night. We began home when a figure in all black stepped in front of us. I was about to fight him when I heard his cock a gun.

"Don't even think about it doll."

"What do you want?"

"Not your wallets if that's what you're thinking. I need him."

I stepped in front of Dust.

"If you're after Dust, you'll have to go through me."

"That can be arranged."

*bang*

Dust POV

He shot her. He shot (Y/N).

He stood there smug. I got in front of her. Her chest bore a bullet hole. But, no blood? Pixels surrounded her body until it was like nothing happened. She pushed me a bit and cracked her knuckles.

"Want to play?"

He sweated nervously and backed up as (Y/N) stepped closer.

"LeT's PlAy."

She punched him in the face, and quickly went to me.

"Dust! D-did he hurt you?"

"No! I-I'm glad you're o-okay!"

She smiled only to wince in pain. I looked to see a knife lodged into her shoulder. He pushed her aside and she groaned in pain.

"(Y/N)!"

I leaned to get her only for him to grab my shoulder.

"Where do you think you're going?"

He punched me once.

My glasses flew off.

Your POV

"D-dust..."

I tried to get up, but the searing pain in my shoulder stopped me.

Dust was getting hurt!

But Dust's small cries stopped.

Nononono-

"You son of a gun."

I looked in shock. Dust stood but was, different.
