Bill's P.O.V.~
After a very long talk with the higher-ups I was finally on my way back to my sapling. Eventually we decided that we would send an army of the most powerful demons (Including me of course) after him if needed. The team would consist of Pyronica, Eclypsa, Tom, some other less popular demons, and myself. I might ask the Gleeful Twins later on for help too, but I would like to put that off as long as I can. They can be extremely obnoxious, not to mention rude.
I don't notice myself humming as I'm about to teleport back to Pinetree, but apparently Tom does because as he walks by he asks, "What's got you in a good mood?" Surprise and curiosity evident in his words. What's wrong with me being happy? It's like all the other demons just want me to be depressed all the time or something..
"Is it bad for me to be?" I respond. Either he doesn't notice, or he chooses to ignore the warning lacing my question because he shrugs and replies, "Well it's just kind of unnerving. You're always happy, but this is more like your a puppy and someone told you that you're master's coming home.. "
I feel my eyes flash red, but I quickly hid it and scoff before teleporting away. I need to get away before I do something I might regret. That wouldn't sit too well the council if I hurt Tom. Considering he's the one who gets most of our information.. but this is information he can't know.
I can't let anybody find out about my pet or else they'll try to take him away. If they did then someone would go after him since he's a weak spot for me. Except I would get mad and possibly destroy the universe. Either way My Pet is off limits, maybe I should make it clear he's mine... hm. How would I go about doing that? Maybe I could do something obvious.. like a triangle. PERFECT! I know what I'll do.
When I get back to the shack the first thing I notice is my Sapling sleeping on the couch with some weird cat thing. It's silently sleeping next to Pine Tree and I almost kill it, but My Pet seems to like it considering how he has it clutched to his chest. I was gonna wake him up too, but Pet looks so pretty like this.. his cute button nose is scrunched up and his rosy lips are parted so that soft breaths escape and tickle his curly brown hair.
I smile at that and pick up his curled form and walk up the stairs, when I set him down he curls up again. His small hands are fisted in front of him, and his chunky sweater is bunched up; revealing milky white skin and a slender waist. As I walk away I hear his breathing quickens, so I turn around as his hands curl and uncurl like he's ready to fight whatever being is trying to hurt him. Poor Pet..
I climb in bed and pull him into my chest so I can pet his soft fluffy hair. I look around his room to see if I can find any clues as to what he's been doing while I was gone, but found only a puddle of blood and trails of it across the floor. I almost thought someone had hurt Pet but then I saw that the mark on his lip looked suspiciously like teeth. It's probably just pinetree being clumsy or anxious. I wouldn't put it past him.
I sigh and curl around him and lock my arms in place. I stuff my nose in his hair and inhale deeply. He smells like sugar and pine trees... how fitting. Slowly I close my eyes and enter his mindscape, eager to see My Pet again. I'll never leave you.. and tomorrow we can mark you. It's gonna be fun My sapling.. just you wait..

Pinetree... you have no idea how intoxicating you are...
