No Empty Promises [Ink X Error] FINISHED

"You're Connected To The AU's..?" Chapter Fifteen

          ERROR walked into the house Ink had built, looking around and humming. Honestly, he did like it. Ink sprint ed across the hallway, making ERROR jump in surprise. Ink ran across the hallway again, grinning like a damn fool. ERROR chuckled in his glitchy tone, shaking his head and teleporting infront of Ink. "I-I-i-nK-Ky," He said, using his strings to grab Ink's soul and bring him to him.

           Ink looked at ERROR excitedly, "So?!  Do you like it?!" Ink looked at him intently, holding onto the strings above him.

          "Ee-H," He shrugged, setting Ink back on the carpeted floor. "I-I-i g-GuEs-s-s-S s-S-o-o." Ink gasped, hugging ERROR and sprinting away. ERROR scoffed, walking to the livingroom with a glare. What was that for? A stupid hug, a horrible way of showing affection. Showing affection is better when you're having se- "I-I-i-nK-K?" ERROR muttered, looking at Ink who was on the ceiling. Ink froze, not looking down with his wide eye sockets.

          "Ink's not here." Ink said in weird tone, trying not to act like he was talking. ERROR rolled the pin pricks in his eye sockets, plopping down on the couch and loosening up. The couch was really comfy. Cracking open an eye socket he looked at Ink. He was army crawling on she ceiling. What a way to break physics. Ink suddenly fell, making a loud THUD that resulted in ERROR jumping. Shakily he looked to Ink, who lay thee on the carpeted floor. ERROR instantly teleported to Ink's side, not touching him.

           ERROR nervously laughed, "U-u-uh, I-I-i-nK-K?" He hesitantly poked Ink's side, slowly starting to gently shake him. Ink groaned, making ERROR sigh softly. "Y-Y-oU_S-c-CA-R-rceD-d m-Me t-h-e-E-E-rE-E,_ S-s-ShO-r-r-TY." ERROR murmured, standing up and holding a hand out to Ink. Ink grabbed his hand with a grunt and pulled himself up. "W-W-h-at-T-t_H-h-A-P-P-pE-n-nED?" He looked at Ink as he sat back down on the couch.

          Ink sat beside ERROR, sighing in pain with a hiss. "I.. I'm not fully sure.  But I have an idea." ERROR raised an invisible eyebrow at Ink, awaiting an explanation. "Uh, so, AU's have their very own SOULS, which keep the AU alive and stable so they don't disappear." Ink shivered, coughing. "W-When something happens to the SOUL it can affect me, but that depends on what happened to it.  Like if something happens to the AU itself and not the soul, I can just sense it." ERROR nodded. He never knew that AU's had souls. So that's why he never was able to fully get rid of them. "But with certain things, like what happened to the last AU, it can affect me.  If it happens too many times it can have a severe affect on me.." Ink looked up to the ceiling.

          "W-w-E-e-L-lL, W-W-h-at-T-t_J-j-U-s-s-sT_H-h-A-P-P-pE-n-nED, t-th-e-e-N?" ERROR prodded, and Ink shrugged.

          "I think I should actually just go check on the AU's SOUL itself," He stood up, getting ready to teleport away when ERROR did something surprising. Ink looked down to his hand, his face becoming dusted with a rainbow blush.

          "U-Uh,_m-mayb-e_you_sh-should_stay_an-d_rest." ERROR blushed, looking Ink in the 'eyes'. Ink started at him. What was he suddenly feeling towards ERROR? Ink's blush deepened as ERROR's did the same. Ink slowly sat down, not taking his hand away from ERROR's hand, and ERROR didn't pull his hand away either. They looked away from eachother, just blushing. A meow echoed in the house as ERROR's kitten sprinted in, dashing up the stairs. Ink yawned, leaning back on the couch. The house was mostly silent except for breathing and the kittens padding footsteps. ERROR thought hard. Had he hurt Ink like this before when he destroyed AU's? ERROR didn't necessarily want to destroy them anymore, seeing how much it could hurt Ink. Wait, why the hell was he worrying about Ink?! They were enemies! Not friends! ERROR shook his heat with a grunt, looking to Ink to see him fully asleep.

          In his pocket ERROR grabbed his phone, going to his messages. He texted Nightmare that whenever he did something to the SOUL of an AU it has a mass effect on Ink. Nightmare didn't reply but he read it. About an hour or two later Cross sent him a video with text, telling him to use ear buds when watching it. ERROR growled, standing up but realizing his skeleton fingers were still intertwined with Ink's. A new blush found its way upon ERROR's skull. He gently pulled his hand away, walking upstairs. He entered one of the farthest bedrooms and closed the door, sitting on a king sized bed. He watched the video. Nightmare had fully explained the plan to everyone and added in new things. So part of the plan had changed? ERROR's attention was taken back by hearing talking outside the house. Shit. Had someone found them? Panicked, ERROR teleported downstairs and walked over to the front door cautiously.

          "Eeey!!  Broskies, open da door!" Fresh wined, knocking. ERROR dead panned. Why was he here. He really did not want to see his brother. ERROR teleported outside behind Fresh, making him turn around with a grin. "ERROR!  My brofriend!  How are you on this radtastic day?!" Fresh smiled, putting a hand on his hip and pushing it outwards. ERROR rolled the glowing dots in his eye sockets, glaring at Fresh.

          "W-What_do_yo-you_wan-t?" He growled, crossing his arms. Fresh rolled his eyes under his shades, laughing.

          "NM just wanted to know if everything's workin' out for ya, he cares, ya know?" How surprising. And he thought Nightmare didn't care about anything. Lean something new everyday, as the saying goes. ERROR groaned, face palming. "What?  Don't care 'bout your rad boss, yo?" Fresh chuckled, teleporting behind ERROR. "I'll tell him everythin's goin' fine, brah." And he teleported away - most likely back to Nightmare's castle.

           ERROR exhaled deeply in relief, walking back in the house. He sat next to Ink, looking at him. When Ink stretched in his sleep he leaned over on ERROR's shoulder, sleeping on him. ERROR blushed yellow, not knowing what to do. Did he wake him up? Just let him sleep there? Was he supposed to kiss him? Nope, never doing that even if required to. Although.. with his new-found emotions for Ink... the idea was tempting. It wouldn't be a real kiss, just a little one on the top of his skull. ERROR leaned down, stopping just before Ink's skull. Should he do this? What if Ink found out and hated him? He leaned further down and layed a gentle kiss on the top of his skull, pulling away quickly with a yellow skull.
