Behind that Mask... |:| Sally Face X Reader (Female) |:|

|:| Chapter 6 |:| New friends

  You open the door to your apartment. You had just got home from hanging out with Sal and Larry. You had a bit of blood on your face from a bloody nose you had gotten tripping over a cat at Sal's place. But you had forgotten that already. 


  "Where have you been?" You look up to see your father's face. "I was just hanging out with Larry and Sal." You say, closing the door behind you.


  "Oh, those boys huh?" He asked. "Well, I met them the other day, they seemed nice enough. Just let me know next time you're gonna stay out a bit later- Is that blood on your face?" You father leaned down and lifted your chin, looking at the blood that was just below your nose.


  "Oh, yeah." You say, remembering the fat tabby and blaring metal. "I tripped over a cat." You say as you take a step back from your dad. "Are you sure you're alright?" He asks with a slightly worried tone. "I'm fine dad, a fat tabby cat isn't gonna kill me." You rolled your eyes and gave your dad a grin before walking off to your room.

  You quickly threw your plate into the sink and ran off to your room to get dressed. You brushed your hair and threw on a F/C hoodie. "Off to see the Wizard of Oz!" You say as you put on some jeans and shoes. "The wonderful Wizard of Oz!" You left your room and skipped out the door of your apartment, knocking into someone.

  You both fell to the ground, you quickly got up and made sure your glove was still on your hand. It was. "Ouch, jeez Y/N." You looked down at the person you had knocked over.

  "Sal! Oh, jeez...I'm sorry, I really am." You said as you helped Sal up. "Nah, It's alright. Are you going somewhere?" Sal asked, noticing your clothes. It really wasn't much, but it was more than you, being your lazy self, would put on.

  "Just taking a run over to the grocery store..." You say, getting slightly suspicious. "Hey Sal, why were you heading down the hallway from this end?" 

  "Oh," Sal said, scratching the back of his head. "Just...chasing Gizmo." He says shrugging.

  "Then why do you have the gearboy with you?" Your suspicion only grew at his response. He sighed. "Fine, I was looking for ghosts in the halls." Only after it came out of his mouth did Sal realize how dumb it sounded.

  You snickered at his response. "That sounded really childish." You give Sal a stupid grin. "You sure Megan hasn't possesed you Sal?" "Haha, very funny Y/N." You could practically hear Sal rolling his eyes.

  You let out a laugh and adjusted your bag over your shoulder. "Welp, I should get going. I'll head down to Larry's when I get back if you wanna hang out later." You say stepping out of your doorway and closing it.

  "Alright then, I'll see ya later Y/N." He said as  he waved. "Cya Sal." You turned and walked down the hallway, entering the elevator.

  You were hanging with Larry and Sal down in Larry's apartment, which was located in the basement of the apartment complex you lived in.

  You noticed Sal had fallen asleep. "I guess Sal's out." You sigh. "Wake him up then." Larry said as he took a sip of a beer he was drinking. "Alright then." You shrug and lean over to Sal, poking him in the side "Hey Sa-" 

  You were cut off by a cold hand grabbing your wrist and knocking you back. Startled, you fell backwards, off of larry's bed. You reached out to grab something, that something ended up being Larry's hair. "THE FU-"

  You had a sudden realization, then you and Larry both hit the ground with a loud thud. Even though the pain that was spiking through your upper back and head hurt like hell, you couldn't do anything but laugh.

  "OH GOD I'M SORRY ARE YOU TWO ALRIGHT!?" Sal was now sitting bolt upright, having been still half asleep he didn't realize he pushed you. You heard Larry groan beside you while all you could do is laugh your ass off.

  "What's so funny to you Y/N?" Larry asked, sitting up. "I-It's just..." You were just able to choke out your sentence between laughs. "I-I Had no Idea t-that Sal would be..." "Sal would be what? Come on spit it out!" Larry was now looking at you with a intense gaze.

  "Sal's ticklish!" Saying it outloud made you go into a giggling fit while Sal's ears turned red.

  "W-What!? No I'm not!"

  "Sal, you're the worst liar!" 

  "I'm really not!"

  "Oh really~?" You and Larry looked at eachother and grinned.

  "Wait...what are you two gonna do?" Sal looked between you two, moving so he was crouching down on his feet, ready to run if needed. "Oh, Saaal~" You smirked as you lunged at Sal, hands out and ready to tickle. 

  Sal was too fast for you though, he jumped up and ran for the door. "Get him!" You yelled at Larry. Larry got up and chased Sal while you crawled off the bed and chased the two of them.

  Sal had avoided Larry at this point. But you were just too stubborn to let up. Damn it! Sal kept running from you, at this point, you two were on the first floor of the apartments. If she keeps this up I can't run much longer.

  You were starting to run out of breath, but you knew that you would catch Sal soon, so you keep running.

  Sal was about to run to the elevator, when he hit something with his foot, turns out, it was his Tabby cat, Gizmo. Damn it! he tried to get up and run again, but it was too late. You pushed him down and started to tickle his sides. "N-No! Get off m- Pff- Stop!- Haha!" Sal squirmed under you, trying to get away, but it was all in vain. "M-Mercy!" "Never!!" You continued to torture Sal by tickling him, until you heard a voice beside you two.

  "Sal?" 

  You turned to look at the person who was standing beside you two, giving Sal the chance to escape. He slid backwards and let out a couple of heavy breaths. "Thank god..." He turned to look at the person who had called his name.

​​​​​​​ "Wait- Ash?"
