"You have some explaining to do."
"Oh," Goggles breathed out. "Well?" Specs asked, anger tracing his features. "That's me and Rider. That's all it is," the blue Inkling answered quietly, starting to head for his room. The Blue Gang's leader stopped him with an arm. "You've been fucking around with another gang's leader?" Specs asked through gritted teeth. "Am I wrong?" His fist clenched, causing the photographs crease and bend. Goggles cringed slightly, tears close to filling his eyes. "N-No—"
"Specs, it's not that big of a deal. Leave him al-"
"Shut the fuck up Headphones! This is none of your business!" Specs shouted, causing her to slightly back away.
"W-what does it matter to you!? Is my happiness really that much of a bad thing?!" The anxious inkling shouted.
Specs glared at him with nothing but anger. "It matters because he's gonna take advantage of your stupid ass! You think he loves you? You think Rider, the leader of the YG Gang, loves you, dumbass Goggles?" He kicked the aforementioned inkling in the stomach. Goggles doubled over in pain, tears streaming down his face as a feeling of nausea washed over him. Still, he managed to retort, "He does love me!"
"No he fucking doesn't! He's just gonna use you to get something from us! He doesn't fucking love you dumba-" Before anything else was said, Specs was met with a harsh slap.
"For fucks sake! Just leave him alone!" Headphones screamed. Specs stared at her in shock for a moment, before instinctively throwing a punch. His fist collided with the inkling girl's cheek, and she spat out ink. She kneed him in the stomach and yelled, "What kind of fucking leader are you?! All you do is get high and pick fights with us! I have to do all the fucking work, and you still consider yourself to be the god damn leader!" Specs coughed out ink and narrowed his eyes. "Stay in your damn lane for once, Headphones!" He grabbed at her arm, but was too slow. Headphones ran to her room and pulled out her splat charger. "Just get out! Get the fuck out right now or I'll shoot you!" Goggles watched in pain and fear as Specs hesitantly made his way to the door. Headphones lowered her charger and opened it, shoving him out. "Don't come back till you learned your fucking place!" The gang leader said nothing, but grimaced as he made his way.
Headphones dropped her weapon and turned around, immediately running to Goggles. "Are you okay?!" He nodded frantically, "What about you? You're bleeding from your mouth!" She moved her fingers to her lips and pulled them away to see blue ink. "I- It's fine. I'm gonna get some frozen veggies for us, hold on." Goggles nodded and made his way to the couch, holding his abdomen. At some point Specs had dropped the photos, and he retrieved them from the ground before sitting. He gazed at the crumpled images of him and Rider with teary eyes.
Headphones returned with a frozen bag of peas and a bag of carrots. "Take your pick," she said, trying to lighten the mood. Goggles smiled slightly and reached for the peas, placing them on his already bruised abdomen. Headphones held the carrots up to her cheek, "We should visit Bobble in a bit, I'm gonna change into clothes that aren't stained in blue." Goggles hummed in acknowledgment. He sat staring at the pictures for a little longer before heading to his room. He picked up his phone and saw a text from Rider.
"Are you doing anything today?"
He replied quickly, deciding not to mention what happened with Specs.
"Yeah, i'm going 2 visit Bobble!"
"Are you bringing your teammates?"
"Headphones is my only teammate at the moment, so technically I am?" He thought.
"Yeah, y?"
"Was just thinking about going with you, but it's fine."
"I'll try 2 see u tomorrow! i have to tell u smthing."
"Alright, love you."
