" hrrm? "was what i could say at the moment. my head hurt as if someone had thrown a boulder at it. What happened? Dirk?
" Jake? you ok? " he asks, a hint of worry in his voice.
" i...i fͥ̒͂̋͗ͣe̓̿̌͗͛̅̋el̍̎̇̍̓̍̑ d̊̐i̍̚̚fͪ̐̍̋͌ͫ̂f̀eͦͭ́̈rȇnt͒ ̽... "
SLAP!
Dirk just slapped my cheek. ... i..
" please! jake come back ! " dirk whispered, about to slap me out of something..
was it called gri̘̙̽ͫͦ͝m̻̗̏ͧ̑̇̀̚d̺̽͌a̗͕̫̹̪̐̉̌r̆͛͡k̜̳̬̗͓̬͒ͨ̉͒̂̚n̹̱͍̼̞e̦͖͚̩̺̻ͥͩ͡ͅs͎̥̮̈́̊̔͛͌̚s͓̹̑ͤ͋́̃?
SLAP!
gah! bollocks! that hurt!
"Jake! no more. stop. "he sounded pissed now.
" okay! see im fine! please just... i dont remember what happened! " i blurt out, right before a hand hit my face again
. the blonde seemed confused.
" you dont remember? " i shook my head sadly.
The boy with a orange hat on his white t shirt sighed.
" so like i was feeling uncomfortable when Ms greeca took my shades away. then you started to flip out and freaked the teacher and the whole fucking class. your skin was all grey, your eyes where glowing and your hair was white. but i stopped you before you could lose your sanity. "
i was speechless. that actually happened? i hope that it was just malarkey...
Two people walked past and stopped when they heard Dirk say that.
" wait what?! " Nepeta exclaimed, turning to Dirk.
" diid 2omeone 2ay griimdark? " Sollux asked.
i was bloody embarrassed now. Dirk decided to repeat what he'd just said but in a very simple way because the two trolls might not know what was wrong because grey skin was natural for a troll so...
" jake! oh my! i neffur knew that you could do that! " the oliveblood troll said with anxiety .
" erm i... " i was flooded with worried questions from both sollux and nepeta. i thought i was going to hyperventilate for a second until Dirk returned the favor and became protective.
" no more questions ok? Jake lost consciousness remember? its as if he would actually answer your questions. can we just forget about this? "
The two trolls just looked to each other, nodding and left to do what they were supposed to do.
RING RING RING!
it was recess . -
Dirk POV
Walking around, i realized that i had a cut on my knee but i didnt have time to worry about that. jake is what i have to worry about. i dont even know if he might lose it while the Truth or Dare game at lunch.
Every now and then, Jake gets these minor head aches. its worrying me .
Somehow i think that skulltop he talked about had something to do with it.
i managed to get Jane for advice.
" Grimdarkness huh? havent heard that in a while. I believe Rose went grimdark once... but that was in the future. She was a seer so.. " jane muttered, half to herself, half to me.
Jake was sitting down next to me, his blank eyes staring at nothing. It was that exact moment that Rose came passing by.
" Rose! " i exclaim, trying to get her attention. she turned around.
" is something wrong Dirk? " she asked, stepping towards me, Jane and Jake.
" Jake has grimdarkness in him " i whisper, trying not to drag any more attention than the suspicious glances of people walking past.
" oh dear. is he coping well with it or has it fully surfaced before? " she asks, her therapist skills showing.
" it nearly surfaced before and he isnt coping with it well. " and with that, i looked over to Jake, who was muttering things to himself.
Rose thought for a bit before started to speak.
" Well it seems that he is trying hard to fight it, which he shouldn't because if he lets it control him, it may cause damage but will disappear forever afterwards. if he fights it, it will stay inside him. "
" if he lets it control him, will he get injured? "
Rose shook her head.
" thanks Rose " i thank her and she left with Kanaya.
i just dont think right now is a good moment to let him go insane .
- After recess
Jake pov -
my head hurts like -bloody dickens!
my left eye stings!
It seemed as if i had spaced out. Wait a minute..
Did that Rose chap say that i had to give in to the horrorterrors?
i dont want to! i cant let myself to hurt Dirk.
there has to be another way to get this grimdarkness out of me right?
