My Hermitcraft One Shots

Just a Break

Only a break, Cub thought as hard as he could. This was only a little hint of time to get things sorted before things got too chaotic in the new Season. The couple wrote the date they came up with the agreement and signed it. Cub's signature looked typed next to Scar's curly and intricate, but sadly scribbled name. It was so dizzying that neither of them had noticed that he had actually written Sarc, not Scar.

For the pair there weren't any real rules. The pair could not kiss, go on dates or partake in the horizontal mambo with each other. This didn't put others off the table, but Cub knew he wouldn't find anyone as perfect as the newly found wizard man. Scar was a wildcard, but he was pretty confident that he wouldn't find anyone else. But they promised not to wait up if the other found someone better.

More important than their romantic relationship, was their perfect and calm friendship. They would keep speaking, meeting every so often to discuss the possibility of getting back together. As long as they stayed friends, they could stay happy.

This might not have been the best idea and Cub was well aware of that. But setting up a new world was hard enough when you aren't working with someone, but when one is to take into account the pressure of also being good enough for someone else and taking care of them slightly. That was not to say that Scar was useless or needed help, he was very talented and could certainly handle himself, but Cub was a little worried when it came to early season.

But Maybe this would be a good idea. They do say, after all, that distance makes the heart grow fonder and if there was anything that this would do it was to create distance. Scar had made friends with a rival from last season, Grian, rather quickly and the burly man didn't totally notice until one time they were together.

Scar, now in a wizard's persona, was selling some crystals like he was a magical hunbot. Naturally, as he loves to support him, Cub bought one of each specific color. He was given a discount and it was a bit odd when he was handed the crystal of love. Neither of them were to mention their relationship as this was just a friendship outing. There was really no way that Father Time had worked his magic and blessed them both with perfection yet. The crystal did, however, make them both really happy. There was still genuine love between them and it showed with the pink that marked their cheeks. The wizard grabbed his hand, but Cub shook it away and stopped him. "Not yet," he said softly, "I'm not ready yet."

He wore a sad expression, but accepted the fate. There wasn't anything else that could really be done about them, could there? It wasn't like some crystals made from the remains of their shared pool of Vex Magic could really do anything to change Cub's mind on the situation.

Of course, Cub loved star still. That was never ever going to change. Their friendship was his favorite part of waking up in the morning. There was no point in changing how he felt. Cub just needed to focus on himself. Scar's quirks proved to be time consuming and all of his energy that wasn't spent on Scar went into project he shared with Scar. His world revolved around the taller of the pair. He didn't even have his own home last season, it was all just projects that he worked on; all featuring the one and only GoodTimesWithScar. Everything was with Scar. Did Cub even know himself in the end or was it just how he acted with Scar and how he was with Scar?

Being alone was new. It wasn't bad before, in fact he loved the time with him by his side. But it was time consuming. He sighed, remembering every little moment in one of his off moments, laying in a bed and staring at the top of the pyramid he was in and curling his fingers under the chin of a young dog on his chest. They met three seasons ago and were quick friends. Neither of them expected to be a couple. Nobody in the world expected either of the strong and quiet Cub to fall for the loud and dorky Scar, but it was instant for him. They formed an empire, the ConVex. They were Bill Gates rich. They retired hand in hand and their diamonds just made more diamonds. It was perfect. Beautiful together. Their empire was one of Cub's favorite things to ever come from the Hermitcraft world, passed only by the relationship he formed with Scar.
