A Picture Can Tell 1000 Words - A Nerd and Jock AU Story

The Days Go By

Over the next month, (Y/N) befriended Error, Cil, and even Chara.

Error:

"Coach!"

Error turned around only to be smashed in a hug. He started to glitch uncontrollably.

"Kid! I hAve hAphePhobIa!"

"It's okay! I have monophobia, social anxiety, and autophobia!"

(haphephobia: fear of being touched

 monophobia: fear of being alone

 social anxiety: fear of being judged, humiliation,etc.

 autophobia: fear of being unloved-also known as:monophobia, isolophobia, or eremophobia

I personally have all of these phobias except for haphephobia, but-like Cil-I am kind of asexual.

 asexual: fear of sexual interaction)

"YOu seEm hapPy abOut it."

"I'm not, but what doesn't kill you makes you stronger! Getting over it will just make you stronger by the soul!" 

That struck a cord in him.

~~~flashback~~~

Paperjam as a child had a mix of thanatophobia and necrophobia.

(thanatophobia: fear of death

 necrophobia: fear of dead or dying persons and/or things; fear of losing a loved one

I personally have necrophobia)

Error was hurt by his son's constant worry for anyone. He had almost killed himself from the stress. Instead, Cil and Ink came into their lives. They brought innocence, happiness, and vanquished that fear from his brother. Every time someone fell down, they were there with their hands out to help them up. 

They were what everyone needed to get a kick start.

The first Error had ever fallen, Ink told him:

"It's okay! Anything that doesn't kill you makes you stronger!"

~~~flashback end~~~

Error hugged his (h/c) haired student. To his surprise, she hugged back.

'It's been a while...'

"I'm proud of you, Error."

Heck, he was proud of himself.

Cil:

Cil and (Y/N) had been assigned to a project together. Art wasn't Cil's strong point, but (Y/N) was very good at it. He was worried that she would dislike anything he drew/painted. She noticed that he always hesitated before doing anything, as well as ask if everything was okay.

"Are you okay Cil?"

"I'm just worried. I'm a bad artist, so I don't want to get us a lower grade.."

"How dare you even think that Cil!"

She grabbed his cheeks and forced him to look at her. His face exploded with magenta blush.

"Everything has beauty, just not everyone sees it. Confucius."

?

"Cil, just paint your family, and I'll paint mine. No matter what, it will be beautiful."

In the end, they turned in a large piece of paper. On the left side was Ink, Error, Paperjam, and Cil. On the right was Jessica, Brandon, Alva, and (Y/N). In the middle read:

"We are different,

But we are family."

They got an 'A+'

Chara:

(Y/N) went to elective as usual, she had a changing schedule-that's how they do it at this school, so the students can check out every elective. She saw Chara sitting in the corner, not dancing. She ran over to him.

"Hey Chara! Go dance!"

"No! This is stupid!"

"Come on! I'll show you it's not!"

She pulled him into a private room with speakers. She went to the computer that controlled them. They suddenly blasted out (fav song). 

"I challenge you to a dance off!"

"You're on!"

She knew it! From what PJ said, Chara can't take down a challenge. She started to dance to the slow/fast/electronic beat and Chara rolled his eyes. He turned on a (more) electronic song and began to dance. As their souls and bodies moved to the beat by instinct, the song came to a close. 

"You said it's stupid."

"I guess you're too cool for it to be."

"Told you!"

"You really have a way with people, don't you?"
