Pink and Black

'Odd' Chapter 51

Pink's POV:

It's been a few days since our future selves came into our timeline and shared a brief future with us without corrupting the space-time continuum. Rusty and I have processed the fact that we're going to have a child in a few year's time and let's just say he was an emotional mess, While Alex was just there eating food as per usual and was weirded out by every single part of it all. 

It was a dry warm morning and I went downstairs and saw Rusty was on the couch with his phone at hand. No Alex though.

"Morning babe" I yawned walking to the kitchen in my pajamas.

"Humm?" Rusty replied turning himself to look at me.

"You okay?" I asked in a bit of concern.

"Yeah yeah I'm fine," Rusty said brushing me off.

"Right... Well, have you had breakfast?" I asked. No reply. I sighed and walked over to the couch and sat down close to Rusty but he didn't even realize I was there.

"Rusty" I hardened my tone snapping my fingers in his face. "What's the-" 

I looked down at his arm with he sleeve rolled up and saw purple cracks that looked like pure gashes, They had rashes around them and everything. 

"Matter..." I finished off with a whisper.

He noticed that I saw his arm and dropped his phone on his lap and shoved his sleeve down so I wouldn't see and he immediately picked up his phone and went back on it. I couldn't see what he was doing...

"Rusty, what's wrong?" I asked somewhat worried.

"Nothing I'm fine," Rusty said a little agitated and walked away to the laundry room and what I can assume into the Void.

No One's POV: 

Rusty's eyes freckled slightly dimmed a dark violet, not very noticeable. Pink watches Rusty in a fit of agitation leaves his girlfriend on the couch feeling confused and guilty.  Did I do something?  she asked herself feeling, trying to pinpoint the reason for her boyfriend's peculiar behavior. She decided to just try and ignore the feeling and just assumed Rusty was having a bad day so she would just leave him be for the day. she finally finished her cooking and laid out perfectly everybody breakfast.

Pink's POV:

"Alex!" I yelled up the stairs.

"Huh-Whatttttttttt!" Alex whined half asleep.

"Breakfast now!" I replied.

I heard someone's feet creepy from above me and slowly but surely Alex came down there stairs with his potato and a magnifying glass.

"Why have you got a magnifying glass, Alex?" I asked plainly expecting a stupid answer.

"Aha! You see the question is, gullible Pink is that I must inspect the breakfast is up to my standards" Alex said in a posh manner, walking over to the plates inspecting the best one. 

"Do you even know what gullible means?" I asked.

"What a silly question! Of course not" Alex replied confidently. I stood there rolling my eyes.

"Can I eat my breakfast now?" I asked rhetorically. 

"Yeah sure this plates mine," Alex said cheerfully picking up his plate and sat down at the counter.

I picked up my breakfast and sat on the couch curling up were Rusty once sat and turned the channel over to one of my favorite shows about crime! I text Rusty telling him his breakfast was ready just in case he wanted it and I continued on with my show. After a few minutes, Alex paused halfway eating his food and spoke.

"Where's Rusty?" Alex muffely questioned with his mouth half full.

"In his Void, I think I did something to upset him but I don't know what..." I responded feeling that little bit of guilt rising in me again.

"You sure?" Alex said confused, swallowing the rest of his food after. "He doesn't get upset with you... Odd... Oh well he's probably going through his own Monthly issues"

I laughed at Alex's statement. "Maybe he is but we should leave him alone for the day though, I said feeling happier now.

"Oki!" Alex responded cheerfully getting out of his chair.

I hope Alex is right... I guess? Maybe he is going through his own Void issue. I shouldn't bother him if it got him that agitated.
