For the past two weeks, Nightmare had been acting...off. Whenever the house phone rang, he'd jump up to get it. He was always scared for the first two or three seconds, but then he'd calm down.
Blue had tried to bring it up...once. Night had simply laughed it off. Blue was beginning to worry a little bit.
Fell had been missing too. Blue wasn't worried much about that. Night had probably forced him to back off.
Blue was enjoying his job, besides the suit of course, and he had even made friends with some of the other co-workers. Nightmare still visited every day, and he would always tip Blue, as a joke.
"Do you think I should quit?"
"Quit what?" Blue turned from where he sat on the couch.
"The Bad Sanses...should I?"
"Do you want to?"
"Yeah...I don't want you to see me...like that. And what if I end up killing someone close to you?" He looked over at Blue. "The last thing I want is to hurt you..."
"Who's gonna lead the guys when you're gone?"
"Error. He's my second in command, it'll work."
"And what are you gonna do?"
"I don't know yet...I mean, I'm rich, so I technically don't need to do anything, but..."
Blue smiled. "Alright, if you really think it would be better, go ahead."
"You are...you're amazing, you know that?"
"You tell me that every day, of course I know." Blue curled up against his partner with a small laugh.
The phone rang.
Nightmare teleported over, picking it up.
"Hey, man. I haven't seen Fell in a few days. Do you know where he is?"
"No."
"Alright." Dust chuckled. "By the way...did you do it yet?"
"What?"
"Screw him, duh."
"Wh-no! No, we haven't even...no!"
"Alright, see you."
"Who was that?"
"Dust..."
"You okay?"
"No..."
"How can I help?"
Nightmare flopped back down on the couch, dragging the smaller over. "Can I have a kiss?"
"Of course!" Blue kissed his cheek.
"No a real kiss."
Blue pecked him on the forehead. "Like that?"
Nightmare huffed and pulled Blue's head down so their teeth met. Blue laughed and accepted the kiss. It lasted about a minute before Nightmare felt brave enough to trail his tongue across the others' teeth, asking for an entrance.
Blue accepted gladly and the kiss dragged on, neither really wanting to pull away until they really had to. But eventually, they did, panting for air, their faces both lit up by blushes.
"You're too good for me, you know that?"
"That's exactly why you deserve me."
*next one can either be a Christmas chapter, or it could be Night's proposal! You guys vote on which you want. Y'all are amazing creatures, stay wild!
