It has been 5 days, 2 left with Sal. It was breaking your heart already. You loved the time you spent with him, he was like a kid stuck in a mans body. You had so many pictures with and of him, it was unreal. You decided to make the days worth it. Today you were going to do it, make something special just for Sal. And it was going to be amazing..
Your currently sitting on your bed, working on your piece of art. You have no idea what time it is, probably close to 1 am. You've been working on this piece for a hour. You hear small shuffling and you jump. You shove your sketchbook under your pillow and look over at Sal. He is starring at you, his mask already on. How the fuck does he do that so fast?! He blinks and you shudder. "can't sleep?" He asks, his voice deeper than usual. This reminded you of your fathers, his voice was super deep....but that only made his singing better.
You nod and hold Lilly to your chest. He leans against the wall and yawns. "did a nightmare wake you up or something" he asks. You shake your head. "well...you gonna talk?" He asks, you shrug and he lets out a sigh. You stare at him, now that you thought of it. Everything about him reminded you of your father. The way he held you, protected you, sung with you...he even acted like a kid as well. You must have started to tear up because Sal was already on your bed, wiping the small tears forming your eyes.
"what's wrong kid?" He asks. Kid....thats what your father would call you. The tears came back, but this time, they got big enough to slide down your cheeks. You sniffle and look at him. He hugs you, moving your ,now shaking figure, onto his lap. He rubs your back as you start to cry lightly on his shoulder. You burry your face into his neck, sniffling. "c-could y-y-you...tell m-me about your childhood?" You whisper, clinging to him.
"well....lets see.....when I was around..I would say 14. I moved to an apartment building with my dad. There, I met Larry, Ash, Todd, Chug, and a bunch of other people. But Larry, ash, and I had our own friend group. We would do everything together. We soon got older, Larry died, Todd got possessed.....and....something happened......i got mad....and my head.....was making me do things I didn't wanna do......thats when I killed them, killed them all. And they threw me in prison....but after a month. A little girl was sent in, her name is (y/n). She is the sweetest girl to live, she likes me a lot...i think. She is right now...my best friend, and my only friend." He says. You look up at him and he smiles. He wipes your tears and you giggle slightly.
"now, you wanna tell me about your childhood?" He asks. You nod slowly. "w-when I was really young, I had my mother and father. We lived in a nice neighborhood. My mother would go on business trips a lot, so I spent most of my years with my dad. One day, before she left for another trip. She gave me Lilly. But after she left, she wasn't found. H-her coworkers said she never showed up...my father grew sad.....I t-tried to cheer him up. But he would always send me into the backyard for the night. M-Maybe a month after my mama disappeared, my dad took a gun and pointed it at me...saying I looked to much like her. My dad was sad, his mind was making him crazy. I know he didn't want to do it. But he was forced to, my neighbors saw and called the cops. He was arrested and I was put into an o-orphanage...." You say.
Sal stares at you. He then hugs you tighter. "someone as sweet as you, should have never had to go through that." He mumbles. You nod and lie your head on his shoulder. "c....can you take off your mask?" You whisper, he freezes and looks at you. "....ok" he slowly says. He reaches behind his head and unclips it. He takes the mask off and sets it on your bed. You stare at his scarred face. You slowly touch the scars, running your fingers over them. He chuckles and looks away. "I know, not what you were expecting" he says.
You shake your head, "better" you say. He smiles and hugs you. "your the best thing to ever happen to me" he mumbles. "I don't want this week to end". "me neither" you say. You yawn and close your eyes. "you tired?" He asks. You nod and he lies you down. He pulls your blanket over you and puts lily in your arms. He leans down and pecks your forehead. He grabs his mask and walks over to his bed. He lies down and stretches. "goodnight" he mumbles.
After 30 minutes or so, you look over. Sal is fast asleep. You smile and get up. You wrap your blanket around yourself and run over to his bed. You climb in next to him and hug his arm. Your eyes immediately grow heavy, being next to him. You yawn and let your eyelids drop. Sleep washing you away from reality
Sals POV
I open one eye and look over at (y/n). I smile and pull her onto my chest. I drape her blanket over us and I set Lilly in her arms. I brush a couple of hairs out of her face. Damn, whoever adopts this kid is hella lucky...
