5.) Maybe If...
I cough, snuggling closer to Smile. He doesn't seem to mind the fact that I have a fever. In fact, I'm sure it's the only reason he's actually "cuddling" with me at the moment.
E.J walks in and sits down next to me. "You feeling any better?" He asks while touching my forehead. I shake my head and pet Smile. "Not at all."
He sighs before jotting down some notes before looking at me through his mask eyeholes. "Need anything?"
"Yeah, kinda. Can you ask for Master Slender? I still need to--" Another fit of coughs corrupt through my throat.
He shakes his head with a sigh, "No, you're still too sick. Master Slender told me he'd discuss everything when you're fully recovered from your fever."
"Man..."
He laughs quietly, then reaches over and puts something over my head. I flush when I realize what it was. It smelt of E.J. He then bent down and kissed the mask, where the lips should be.
"It's a good luck charm." He says before putting his mask back on. My cheeks are burning. I'm sure it's noticeable because E.J seems to notice right away.
Though he only chuckles and attempts to leave. Something in me blurs and I reach out and grab E.J's hand. "D-Don't leave me." Smiles ears pop up and he watches the scene.
E.J stands there for a moment before sitting back down. My eyes shut. Maybe it's the fever, but I feel oddly attracted to him. Why, though?
I feel something lay next to me, making me snap my eyes open. E.J is looking down at me while his head rests on my pillow. He's warm. Really warm. I snuggle closer to him, pushing my face into his chest. His arms wrap around my waist and he pulls me closer.
"Just try to get some rest." He whispers. I hear Smile jump off my bed and rush out of my room. I ignore it and hum to E.J.
"Thank you, E.J." I say quietly. Instead of answering with words, he pulls me closer and kisses the top of my head.
Why is it... that I want him to continue? Maybe if... My cheeks turn into a bright pink as images come to my head. "You okay, Carter?"
"Y-Y-Yeah! Nothing, um... It's just the fever? Yeah! The fever." I panic. Dang it Carter, way to blow the cover.
He chuckles before patting me on my head. I feel safe from danger when I'm around him. It's always Jeff and E.J that make me feel this way. But... I'm confused.
It has to be the fever, but... I want E.J to stay with me. "Get some sleep, sweetheart. You need it to get better."
"Can I see your face? Before I go to bed?"
E.J was taken by surprise, but he nods and takes off his mask. I blush lightly. He's handsome. Yet he says otherwise. I wonder why.
"Hey... Jack?" He tenses up as I say his name.
"Yeah?"
"You're handsome. Don't ever doubt that. You should take your mask off more often. I think you look cute." I mutter before dozing off.
*_*_*_*
I woke up to someone poking my cheek repeatedly. Groaning because I didn't want to get up, I warn them off with a slow hit.
On the brink of sleep, it started again.
Seriously, I don't want to get up. I was sleeping soundly. And I was beginning to feel better.
It then pinches my nose, making me sit up and whine, "Ow! That hurt, jerk!" I glance over to see a very tired looking Ben.
Confusion clouds over my mind while I watch him slip underneath my covers slyly. A few seconds pass before I shove him off my bed, keeping my straight face. "What are you doing?"
He groans, "I wanted to cuddle! I heard that you and Eyeless got to, and that's just not fair!" As he sits up, a blush appears on my face. "Y-You wanted to... cuddle?"
He nods and stands up to face me. "Yeah! Why else would you catch me in your be- never mind, do not answer that." His short figure floats before he heads for the door.
I stop him, "I-If you want... we could s-still cuddle." My face is probably as bright as a strawberry. He whoops and jumps into my bed, causing me to giggle.
He slips under the covers with me and motions me to come over to him.
I've never felt wanted before. My parents would always leave me with a stranger. So I never really got to do anything.
"Thank you Ben." I say, he cradles me closer to his body. He's also warm. But unlike E.J, he is less tense. More comfy.
Sometimes, when I'd get bored, Smile and I would go out to the field and play. After we got tired, we'd eat, have a drink, and he would nap against me while I read a book in the shade. Smile's warmth is almost like Ben's.
Only I like Ben's a lot more.
"For what?" He asks in a low tone, obviously trying not to disturb me. His left hand rested on my shoulder and his right sat on my lower back. It was odd but comfortable.
I grin softly and look him in the eyes, "For being here -all of you! You guys always make me feel welcomed. And you don't seem to mind the fact that I'm human. I greatly appreciate all of you!" I say with a tear rolling down my face.
He wipes it away, then puts his hand back in place. "For you, Cart, anything." His lips reached down and kissed my cheek softly, giving me goosebumps.
"W-What was that for?" I ask, reaching up to touch my cheek. He smiles a smile I haven't seen in him before.
"Well, we all have our downs. And though you may be human, that doesn't matter to any of us." He says. "And since you are human, you have to enjoy your life to the fullest."
He bends his head down again. Butterflies stab at my stomach with his lips inching closer and closer to my own. Just as they were going to touch...
"What the fuck are you trying to do to my little fucking sister Ben Drowned!" Jeff's voice shook the room, making me scoot far away from Ben as possible.
"Jeff? It's not what you think-"
"Was he trying to rape you?" He hollers, making Ben hold in a laugh, giving him a look saying 'as-if-I-would-do-that.'.
"No! Why would he-"
"Do I need to snap his neck?"
"Jeff-"
"Ben!" He shouts while chasing him around my room. I slap my forehead, letting Smile jump onto my bed.
I look at him accusingly. "You did this, didn't you?"
He snickers in his own way, lying down on my favorite pillow. I groan and ignore the two screaming boys, trying to focus on the fact that I was almost kissed on the lips by Ben.
"My god... what did I do to deserve this?" I ask with a smile. Smile licks my cheek and stretches across my bed, making himself comfortable.
I pat him before I lay down too. "I love you guys."
