•Alive but Dead inside• (Eddsworld x Reader)

•Chapter 3• {Gay?}

(Y/N)'s POV:

I yawned waking up from my rest as my alarm went off, it was 4 am in the morning the best hour on killing eaters walking around rentlessly. I rubbed my eyes for a bit before I sat up getting out of my bed then heading to my own bathroom inside my room, I took my comb and looked at myself at the mirror while combing my hair's tangles it took awhile after I finally tied it up as I washed my face and brushed my teeth clean, before putting on my mouth guard and beanie. I put on my regular clothes for the Apocalypse and got my backpack filled with guns for hunting.

I walked up to Jack's bed to wake him up for our killings spree.

"Hey Jack wake up time to kill deadly eaters" I whipered to him rocking him gently.

Jack's ear perked up as he opened his eyes and smiled at me as he pants with his tounge out getting up from his bed.

"That's the spirit now let's go" I said slinging my backpack on my shoulder.

I opened the door and was about to head out of the mansion when someone held my wrist, having my guards up and not used to people now a days, I held the person's wrist then pinning them on the wall. But I then soon realized that it was only Edd that was now scared for his life and probably a bit hurt.

"Oh god, I'm so sorry Edd I'm not that used to people anymore since the Apocalypse started and I thought that your some attacker or eater that would probably kill me" I rambled letting go of him.
He groans "it's fine Curt, where are you going anyway you seemed packed" he told me pointing on my back pack.
"Oh this? well every 4 in the morning I head out and to kill random eaters to calm me a bit and keep my sanity away from me" I told him scratching the back of my neck looking away embarrassed. "Though that I kinda seems like the other way around..."
"Nah it seems really cool to me, can I come? Well it's okay if I can't I mean well I won't be any help to you just t-troublesome" He stuttered awkwardly rubbing his arm.
"Nah it's fine you can come just don't make any loud noises that could attrack eaters" I told him with a assuring smile.
"Really? Wait just let me get my gas mask!" He said excited, running off to his room.

I giggled quietly at his childish behaviour and looked down at Jack, he was looking at me impatiently tapping his tail on the floor. I sighed and was about to pet him when Edd came back with his gasmask and a bat.

"I'm ready let's go!" He said excitement filling him.
"Okay let's head out" I told him with a smile although he doesn't see it...

He nodded and we left the mansion, walking through the empty trashed streets feeling the cold dawn air that surrounded us.

I lead him to where Jack and I would always go whenever we go hunting outside early in the morning, It was a huge building with a really nice view where you can kill eaters without any danger around and it still looks like it haven't been entered. As we arrived there I stopped to take a look at it with a smile as Edd stared at it with amazement. I looked at him and chuckled.

"Let's get inside" I told him.
"But aren't there zombies in there?" He asked.
"I've been here for so many times and there isn't a single eater in there, cause I already killed them all and put protection for it and if your worried to get your clean feet on anything dirty in there, trust me I clean this place for like 7 weeks ago" I told him patting his back and getting in "now are you coming in like a man or not like a pussy?"

He looked at me for a moment then walked inside with me. The place was a bit dark and the power was out.

"What is this place?" Edd asked looking around the dark place.
"It was an old famous gadget company that was now wreak by Apocalypse and was emptied but cleaned the me, I heard many useful things are around here but needed electricity to work, but for my luck the main electricity switch thing are fucking jammed and a bit broken that needs fixing to make it work, so that's why I can't use any of what's inside here" I told him.
"Why can't you fix it?" He asked staring at me.
"Do I look like a stereotype handyman?" I  turn around and asked dully.
"...maybe?..." He stated questioningly and blushing probably from the embarassment.
I facepalmed "your never gonna survive the Apocalypse on your own huh, poor boy" I muttered sadly.
"Huh?"
"Nothing, anyway let's start climbing" I smiled proudly showing the stairs up to the top of the building which is counted by...8 or maybe 10 floors?.
"Wait wut?" He asked.

Time skip

We climbed upstairs until we got to the top, I smiled and smelled the air that smelled (blood, gore and destruction) fresh with the cold morning breeze flowing with it. Jack was beside me panting happily as I pat him.

After a few more minutes Edd then finally got here and panted heavily due to his exhaustion.

"How *pant pant* c-can you *pants* climb t-this *pant pant* tall building w-without *pants* getting tired?!" Edd asked breathing heavily and collapsed on the floor.
"You'll get used to it and also it's a great exercise to stay fit all the time" I told him putting my hands on my hips.

After saying that I saw a faint shade of pink tinted on his cheek as he stared at the sky he's probably tired and heated, he should rest somewhere more comfortable than the hard cement floor... I thought as I looked to a matress that laid next to the edge wall of the view.
Without hesitation I picked him up on my back and carried him to the matress Oh god what does this guy eats? Hollowblocks for breakfast?! His so darn heavy! I thought as I took a few steps forward.

"W-what are y-you doing?!? I c-can walk remember???" Edd complained as he stuttered.
"You're tired so I'm carrying you now stop moving" I told him grunting.

He went silent as he just hugged my neck as I continued walking to the matress, when we got there I laid him down on it and wiped a sweat on my forehead.

"You should rest for a while, and here I think I have some water in my bag" I told him as I rampage in my back pack.
"You don't have to do this for me right?" He assist looking away.
"And let you die from exhaustion causing me to get killed by your gang? Rather be a dead eater than to be blamed a killer" I said finally finding a water bottle and giving it to him.
"Aren't you already one?" He asked chuckling.
"Yeah but I kill for a reason and that's for me to stay alive here in this rotten world I call home" I told him this time finding my snipper.

He chuckled and chugged some water that I gave him. After also finally finding my precious gun I relouded it so I won't get bothered if it was empty making me rampage in my back pack again for the whole entire time.

"Don't you ever rest?" Edd asked wiping his lips.
"Rest?" I asked looking up from him confused.
He blushed "you know just staying in the house and chill" he said shrugging.

I looked back down on my sniper and sighed shrugging my shoulders like Idfc.

"Well no, I rarely slack off in the house when ever I'm sick and needs to chill for a moment to heal, I can't stop now...I'm kind of trying to find a cure for this situation were having" I told him this time looking down on the building. "I can't just watch and keep killing these sick bastards forever...I need to find a way to bring back humans to their normal forms, not this!" I pointed out as I now positioned myself on aiming.
"People tend to need some rest sometimes to ease off the tense" he reasoned

I froze at the moment to look at him then back on my gun. I sighed and sat down for a moment to think.

"If I stop I'd be wasting my golden time here on what we still call earth..." I explained sitting down next to the matress.
"It's not wasting time it's giving time to yourself...you're probably tired and need some more rest why don't we chat for a moment and know each other better" he said as he sat next to me ans oat my back.

I stared up at him then smiled softly. Jack walked up to me and lied on my lap.

"Heh, why not?" I asked chuckling and rubbing Jack's head.
"See isn't that hard right? Now anything that spots your interest now a days?" He asked smiling ginuenly.
"Does Killing man eaters a interest?" I asked laughing.
"If it is I'd probably already dead from excitement of trying it!" He laughed.
"Oh wait was that a pun?" I asked smiling.
He laughs nervously "yeah why was it bad?" He asked.
"Bad? no! It was breath taking" I laughed again.

This day wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. I didn't expect that a British brunette boy and a couple of puns would probably make my day better... It was went swell...
