Wait until it says '[intended time]' Understand? Cool

Error's POV

The warm sunlight forced me to wake up. I pulled the comforter over my head but once I'm awake, I can't fall asleep again. I sat up, still feeling a bit drowsy. I haven't been getting much sleep lately. Probably because of the fact I have my job and I'm out of my medication. I'll have to get some later. I put on a shirt and made an appointment for my medicine.

'Another day. Don't fuck it up.'

I walk into Ink's room to find him sleeping. His fluffy sheets were covering his entire body. Only the top of head was showing.

'Heh, cute.'

I lowered the sheets a little and kissed him. He returned the kiss even before he woke up. He looked up at me with a hazed look in his eyes. I lowered myself and cuddled him. We didn't bother greeting each other as the kiss pretty much did the work.

Me: Do you have any contracts?

He shook his head.

Me: At 12:00, meet me in the park. The same hidden place that we were at last time.

Ink: Okay. But right now, let's continue cuddling. It's cold outside, you're warm and you smell nice.

Me: Thank you?

He buried himself further into my chest. He seemed cold, even under the sheets.

Me: Ink, I have to go now. There's something very important that I have to do.

Ink: Fine.

He let go of me so I could stand up. I walked back to my bedroom and opened my closet. In the corner was a dusty bag. I pulled it out and set it on my bed. I unzipped it. Sitting inside was a old guitar.

Me: Hello old friend.

Just by looking at it, I could tell it needed to be tuned. I zipped the gig bag again and threw it onto my shoulder. I gathered some things before I teleported to the hidden place. Carefully setting the bag down, I began tuning the guitar.

[Intended time]

My fingers swiftly moved and played a small song. The guitar may have sang something beautiful but just touching the damn instrument gave me everything that wasn't.

Error's POV (Age 8)

I felt momma lightly push me awake.

Mom: Get up sweety. We're going to go see Geno. Also, make sure you take your medicine.

She softly said and then left the room. I didn't bother changing. I put on my glasses and met momma outside. She was putting gifts into the trunk. Like always, dad wasn't here. Momma had trouble putting a big box in the car.

Me: Do you need help?

Mom: I got it sweety. Get in the car.

I waited for her. She sat in the driver seat and twirled the keys around her finger.

Mom: Now, let's go visit your brother.

(Time Skip)

I helped momma carry the gifts into Geno's room. My older brother was sitting on a hospital bed. An IV was attached his arm and he had a patch over his right eye. He has been incredibly ill and the doctors have been trying to fix it.
