Your mind raced, a million things were happening at once.
'I pray that Edd isn't working for that particular army...'
'I hope I'm not being included for this death fight!'
'I'm tired of being tough! I wanna go home, be with Edd and Matt and Tom...maybe even Tord!'
At this point, you were hunched over biting your nails. Usually, you stood strong and hid your emotions from most people but ever since Edd you've changed a noticeable bit..."Ahem, Y/N are you alright? Do you need to take a break?" Tord interrupts your overthink session with a question and a worried expression.
You nod slowly, placing the notepad in his arms. Your fingers brush lightly and you two connect eyes. You look away with a blush and turn around to leave.
Closing the large doors behind you, you slide down to the ground with your back against the wall and your knees to your chest.
'Ugh, this is bullshit... I need to grow a pair and deal with it...' You sigh, tugging on your hair. You hated feeling this way, but couldn't help it. You couldn't tell if it was because of Edd or Tord but you felt weak.
"What happened to the old days when I used to kick life in the nuts..?" You sadly mumbled, just then you hear a giggle.
"S-sorry! I was gonna mind my own business but after you said that I couldn't hold it in!" She chuckled again, covering her mouth with a grin.
"H-hey! It's not funny! I'm serious ya' know!" You point your finger at her as she begins to laugh again, you blush out of embarrassment and divert your eyes.
"What's the matter sugar honey?" The unknown lady crouches down to you. You realized that she had shiny hair, the color was something you've seen a few times. Burgundy...Maybe? You weren't sure but you did like her eyes. They were a pale brown. Like Edds eyes but lighter.
"What's it to you?" You raise your eyebrow. You didn't trust this lady one bit, and you made sure you showed her that through your facial expressions.
"I don't know, just bored. I've been patrolling for hours and I was gonna take a break till I heard you." You rolled your eyes, but you signed for her to sit next to you. You weren't gonna tell her everything of course but just a little wouldn't hurt.
'She could fill in for Edd' you began to tell her about how you weren't the same person that you was before. That you used to be a cop and one if the best of your class. But now you couldn't even look a certain someone in the eyes without crumbling to the ground. The lady understood and listened to your story.°•°•°•°•°
"And yeah... That's all." You awkwardly say, noticing that it had been a few minutes since you left Tord in the room behind you.
"That's awful. I can't say that I can help you..." The woman sighs.
'Ugh, what a waste of damn time' you glare at the woman as she laughs again.
"But if you're looking for someone to vent to.. I'll be somewhere around here..." She looks down the hallways, scratching her cheek.
She jumps up and dusts off her pants. She gives you her hand, but you push it away and stand up yourself.
"Well, I gotta get going. My break was done 5 minutes ago." She jokes. Scratching the back of her head.
You nod and she turns away. But one thing pricks your mind...
"Hey what's your name?” you sternly ask, folding your arms.
" Oh! I almost forgot! I'm Gabrielle." She turns to smile, looking at you as if she waits for a response.
"...Y/N" was all you said before turning your back to her. As you reach for the door you, she calls out to you again.
"...Y/N, I like that name. But I'll call you honey biscuit." She joyfully states as she walks away. Her footsteps becoming faint....
Honey biscuit?
