*Afterdeath* [BE MINE]

Chapter 22: Morning in pictures

Several minutes passed and Geno couldn't fall asleep but Reaper had already done so a few minutes after finishing their little "discussion".

.   .   .

Geno couldn't move much. He was being hugged as if he was a big teddy bear. For that reason, he couldn't sleep. Although, knowing our bipolar, he liked that a little.

He tried to think about his day to get some sleep, since he was used to meditate in the save screen. But having done so many activities it was impossible to do so. Shortly, he was thoughtful about what was said and what had just happened, mostly about the latter. He felt strange not to wear his glitch around Reaper, since the first time he did it, he had a very bad experience. So far, it bothered him a little. . . He has to get used to it step by step, right?

Changing the subject. The smaller really wanted to sleep, to get up early and to avoid the "misunderstandings" with the other two companions. But seriously he couldn't. He didn't feel tired. Something strange, considering he's a Sans. He was frustrated, he had to find a way to reconcile and walking around wasn't an option. He looked around to find something to entertain himself and to get tired but there wasn't much. Just some windows overlooking the forest, socks, a candle, a broken lamp, a cell phone. . .

Wait. . . A cell phone?

Geno could see the device on the cupboard next to the bed as he looked back arching his neck a little. He was glad there was something to get tired of after all. He removed an arm from Reaper's grib, stretched a little, trying not wake him up and with gentleness, carefully leaned over the edge of the furniture and successfully held it in his bony hand. He settled back without having been released a little of the hug. The phone had marked that it was two o'clock in the morning.

"How long did I try to sleep?" He thought, since they went to sleep at about eleven.

He focused on the screen again and realized that it didn't have a security PIN.

Well, apparently Reaper was so lazy that he didn't want to put his cell phone in safety but Geno thought that if he had one, he wouldn't have done it either. That gave him some delight.

It's possible to say that the screen was a bit broken by something that happened that afternoon. He was trying to find something fun like a game or something to read on the device but there was nothing. He couldn't download anything, since there was no internet, only coverage. . . It seemed that Reaper's brother was not interested in that, since they aren't necessary. Well, the maximum he came to find was an application called "Short and good jokes". . . He decided to download it. The jokes were very bad, worse than the ones they told themselves. That didn't matter much to him but he still didn't become tired.

He turned off the cell phone and left it next to him. He thought about going to his AU to rest. He was used to sleeping there. Maybe if he tried he would save the disgust of getting up early, but. . . on the other hand, Ganz could appear and he wasn't in the best conditions to defend himself, or he would also have the difficulty of getting out of bed towards the wheelchair without Reaper getting up and asking Paps to leave him in his AU. And finally, Reaper's sadness of knowing that he left his side that night without saying anything.

He had no more options. He had to stay. It was the best for everyone, well, less for him because he wouldn't sleep and be tired all day.

"On day". . .

He remembered that. After leaving the planetarium they both went to other free places and Reaper had taken many pictures. He said he wanted to capture the moment of his first days being free. He had forgotten to do it the day before because he was focused on the walk and wasn't interested in doing so. But now, he was curious about the results of these. So again, he turned the cell phone on, opening the photo gallery and went to the bottom of the application to see the pictures in order.
