Description: The war between the creator and destroyer have ended. A truce made. A relationship formed. Soon they were forgotten. How will Ink ever be able to cope?
"Breath. Just breathe. I'm here. You're safe." Error said soothingly while holding Inks hands.
Ink was still shaking and crying. His eyes wide and 'stomach' twisted.
"N-not even Dream or Blue remembers me!" He cried.
Error sighed and hugged his lover.
"Inky, I remember you..."
Ink took a deep breath and and smiled, still a bit shaky. He calmed as he thought about that.
"Y-you're right. That's all I need..."
Error saw marks on Inks neck. Not his tattoos. These marks were sort of red. Like Ink has been choked or strangled.
Ink hugged Error. Error hugged back and decided to take a risky move.
He gently kissed Inks neck. Ink winced and faked a moan trying to make Error believe everything was normal.
Error didn't by it though. He took of Ink's scarf. Ink tried to stop him. It was to late.
When he worriedly questioned Ink, he just broke down into tears.
Error started crying as well.
"I-I'm Sorry. W-when people forgot I-I freaked out an... I had some of your string... I woke up almost instantly and came here." Ink explained.
Error took the string from Ink and held him.
"I-I won't do it again!" Ink said, scared Error would leave him.
"Ink i... I need you here."
"I'm sorry." Ink repeated.
Inky's tears fell on Error's jacket. Error just sat there, holding Ink and making sure he was alright.
A few weeks passed and Ink wasn't doing much better. People still forgot about him. Error didn't mind it so much.
They could go to aus without being noticed.
The only thing ruining it for him is how harsh Ink took the mind erasing. His worst fear has always been being forgotten.
Error tried his best to comfort Ink and Ink was cheered up for a bit but never for long.
One day he saw Ink with his string again. He decided to just watch. Ink was only playing with it.
He smiled.
It'd been so long since Error had seen Ink smile. Error smiled with him.
Then, before he knew what was happening Ink just, stopped breathing.
Falling back, string in hand. Error rushed in. Reaper stood behind him.
"...Um... move please." Reaper said.
"W-What...?"
"Oh. Uhhh... I guess he didn't tell you. He stopped taking his vials."
Error looked frantically for Ink's sash. Just as he'd feared Reaper was right. All the vials were full. Tears fell from his eyes as he began glitching.
How could he be so blind!? He kept asking himself that question over and over. Until the loneliness came over him.
If Ink was gone... he had nobody. He decided to drink Ink's vials. Two minutes later, he was next to a sleeping Ink.
When Ink opened his eyes Error felt so many feelings all at once.
Anger, guilt, happiness. He hugged his lover.
"Why'd you leave me!?" He cried.
"I...I couldn't take it anymore." Ink replied, holding Error.
"Why did you smile before you died I-I... I thought you were happy..."
"I was. I knew I didn't have long left. I know it was selfish but... I'm sorry. I have no excuse."
Error didn't let him go. From now on, even in death he'd hang onto him. Not let go.
