Silent Letters

Chapter 3

(Little reminder, Error Geno and Fresh are brother in this, I figured it would be a bit easier)

Ink POV
I waited outside the front door for him. I couldn't wait! If I physically could, I bet I'd be bouncing off the walls I'm that excited! Error said that if I wanted to, I could hang out at his place for a bit.  I wonder if I could stay the night? Or would that he too weird since I just met him today? No clue, but I guess I'll figure that bit out later. "Hey, you waited?" Error was suddenly in front of me, guess i was too caught up in my thoughts to notice him show up. I nodded to answer his question, a faint rainbow blush plastered my cheekbones. Everybody said i blushed easily, but I didn't think of it as muvh til I felt my feat heat up even more as I stared into Error's multicolored eyes. "Earth to Ink, Earth to Ink, you there?" Error waved his hand in front of my face a few times. I nodded and held my notebook even closer to my chest. I glanced down at his hand, but quickly looked back up. Kids swarmed around us, s ok me bumping snd shoving past us, eager to leave the building. "Well, cmon then squid." Error grabbed my hand and walked through the heard of monsters and humans. Suddenly, the fire alarm went off, the dinging of it echoing everywhere. Thats when it started. Everybody, absolutely everybody started screaming and took off running in different directions. Error was separated from me and I was shoved to the ground. Instantly I tucked my knees to my chest and put my hands over my hand, to shield myself from the swarm of panicking students and teachers. A few teachers were trying to gather the students and calm them down, but they continued to run. Someone grabbed me, but with me being super small, there reslly wasn't much I could do about it. I tried to fight back anyway, kicking and hitting whoever was running with me. Once we were out of the range of the school, the figure put me down. Okay, practically dropped me. "Okay okay sheesh! You kick like there is no tomorrow!" I looked up to see Error rubbing his chest and the back of his skull where I had punched and kicked. I smiled sheepishly and rubbed the back of my skull. " 's okay, didn't hurt that much." Error chuckled. He reached out a hand and helped me up. I wiped the dust and dirt off my butt, which made him laugh. I laughed too, but I doubled over and fell to my knees, clutching my ribs. I gasped and whined in pain. Instantly, Error was by my side. "Ink whats wrong?" He sounded frantic. I reached for my notepad, but he grabbed my hand. "Ink, speak!" His grip on my wrist tightened, but he made sure not to hurt it, it was more of a concerned squeeze. "R-ribs...hurt..." I wheezed. It had hurt to breathe, and it had hurt even more to talk. Error looked around, wrapped an arm around me, and teleported us into a house. It was actually a really nice place. I would have studied my surroundings a bit more if my chest didn't feel like they were caving in on my soul. He helped me to his room, and called out 2 names. In an instant, 2 more skeletons bolted through the door, 1 taller and clearly older than the other. "Fresh, get mom, Geno help me out here." He sounded so serious, well, I guess it was a bit of a serious sitiation. He layed me on his bed, and I rolled on my side and whined. The skeleton named Fresh came in with a monster, I guess who was there mom. "Error? Who is this? What happened?" She asked. "Some kid pulled the fire alarm at school. Kids went nuts and Ink and me got separated. Im not sure what happened to him" I whined even more, gripping my sides, burying my face into the blanket on his bed. "Ink, my name is CQ, Okay? I have to check your ribs and chest, so can I lift up your shirt real quick?" I quickly shook my head. I didn't want some lady I didn't even know stripping me bare! "Inky, we need to help you. Would it be better if I did it? You know me a bit better." Error titled his head. I thought about it for a second, and hesitantly nodded, still whining. "Okay, im gonna have to take your shirt off okay? If you get too uncomfortable just let me know, k?" Error stated, looking at me. I nodded again. He lifted up my shirt partly and I yelped. "Sorry! It's gonna hurt." I shook my head furiously, glancing at Geno and 'CQ'. Error took note of this, for he turned to his brother and mom and asked them quietly if they could get out of the room. The nodded and left, quietly closing the door behind them. "Im gonna need you to sit up alright?" He looked back at me. I nodded and grabbed his arm for support, as he helped me up. "Mk, you have to work with me here." He grabbed the hem on my shirt and lifted up slightly. I raised my arms and he pulled the shirt over my head and tossed it on his bed. "Jesus..." His eyes widened. I looked down and almost screamed. Cracks ran along my ribs and across my chest, blood trickling down them. My breath quickened, but Error forced me to look at his instead of my damaged ribs. "Ink, tell me what happened after we got separated?" He kept me from looking down. "I-...I was knocked over and kids continued to r-run...I got kicked a few times...okay, a lot more then a few.." I held my gaze. "So your ribs were damaged from getting kicked so many times...."He thought for a moment. "What your parent's number?" He asked standing up. "###-###-####.." Ii answered. He opened the door. He mumbled something inaudible, to who I was guessing was his mom. He asked me if it was okay if she cam in, and I nodded, trying to keep myself from looking down. I hated blood, so incredibly much. Error's mother came in and inspected my ribs. Error was in the back, talking to someone on his phone. "Mom, Ink's mom wants to talk to you." He tapped her shoulder. CQ grabbed the phone and stood up and walked to the door. My face went pale as I felt the blood run down my bones. Error suddenly reached out and grabbed my hand, giving it a reassuring squeeze. "Hey, your gonna be fine Ink, we'll get ya patched up and the adults will talk with the people at school, and maybe we can continue with the hang out. Okay?" He looked me in the eyes, smiling. I felt my face heat up and smiled, making Error's face explode into a yellow blushing mess. CQ came into the room. "Ink, its for you dear." She said holding the phone out. My face went even paler. Oh god.
