He was sick of it. Edgar was sick of this Sugary feeling in his chest. When the whole, "Liking Ursula" phase Edgar went out of his heart and head, he hated love even more. It was what made it stomach growl and bubble in disgust. The reason why he stopped being interested in dating.
Unfortunately, he had the feeling of insects and bugs crawling in his stomach, probably laying eggs, he wishes. He does NOT want to fall in love again. When Edgar learned about his feelings for someone, he couldn't- in the name of science and pranks, believe who he fell for. He was thankful it wasn't Stephanie, but it worse, MUCH worse.
It was Ellen. His sister. HIS SISTER, ELLEN. What's wrong with him?!
I mean, he's been called a freak before, tons of times, by Stephanie and others, didn't bug him one bit. But now, now, he has a reason to fear someone's opinion. Especially Ellen's... He gave a angry groan to himself in his room. Why did he have to fall in love again? Especially with his sister?
He had been in his room while Ellen was with her plants, he couldn't think of any pranks because of this. Pet purred on his arm in comfort like a good pet. ...sigh, I can't even focus on a prank..how long will this be eating me apart..? He just drew scribbles on his blueprints, slowly dozing off...
Edgar was surrounded by creepy distant laughter, shadowy figures with creepily wide smiles, with piercing pupils. Staring all around him, but in front of him was bigger figures, same like the others, those figures looked like his parents. "Oh Edgar...You're so alone in this world aren't you..?" his mother looked down at him. Edgar looked at himself in the puddle, he was 7 again. "M-mom...dad..." he looked up to his parents, tears dripping. "Oh don't be such a child Edgar! In this world, you'll always be alone!", "Your Father and I are going to a trip...We'll be back soon Okay..?". "No..No no no..t-that's what you said before you," His parents were fading into air, "M-MOM! DAD! NO! I-I DON'T WANT TO BE ALONE IN THE WORLD! PLEASE!". Falling on his knees, cupping his crying face. "...please...i can't.." until he felt the warmth of a hug from something...someone. "Don't be such a crybaby, Edgar.." Ellen said, giving him a straight face. "...we still have eachother, right brother..?"...
Right Brother..?
Brother...?
Brother?
"Edgar" Ellen's voice woke him up. He looked at his sister, who was holding Pet in her arms. "Mph...So you've slacking off instead of coming up with ideas for our Pranks?", he sighed, "...". Five seconds of silence, Ellen spoke up, "You were dreaming of them, weren't you?..", she gave the exact straight face like in the dream.
Edgar couldn't lie whenever she made that face. It was impossible. He nodded, she replied, "...Stop dreaming about that, stop thinking about it, we don't know where they are...but who cares...", Ellen's straight face slowly went to a unknown one. To Edgar, it looked like she was either blushing or confused. She looked at him, "...I have you and I'm glad..", Edgar had faint pink color on his pale cheeks.
They could both feel the feeling of insects in their stomachs. It felt so, ugh...Mussy...Lovey...Dovey. Ellen looked away and walked to the door. "...We sill have eachother, right brother..?".
Edgar looked at her walking off with Pet, he understood it now. He understands why he has these feelings...
He's all alone, in a world he hates and fears, but he has Ellen... A girl so close to him, closer than any other girl. That's when he finally had the idea for a prank, fill the town with bugs. Since he has the feeling of them in his stomach, why not share it with Nods Limbs...?
