Chapter 2
You have fallen asleep on your uncomfortable floor when a loud banging of someone hitting your door and the sound of angry wind. You rub your eyes and groan, fuck this means you have to stand up. You do just that. Your back feels like you've been carting around a shit load of bricks on your back.
Your hive is creaking and groaning. Being a lowblood, wait no, you aren't even on the spectrum. You remember that Kankri is not here to answer the door and you grumble dashing out of her room and to the door. Eridan is standing on your doorstep, the trees are blowing around behind him. The storm is getting more and more violent. You quickly gesture the violet blood in. "Hey." He walks in past you swiftly, you notice he's shivering slightly. You close the entrance and turn to him. He looks slightly awkward just standing there.
"They came to the hive." He sighs. You are glad you aren't there, you are even more glad you didn't request to head to his hive. But then maybe Kankri and Cronus would have stayed the night here instead of you demanding they leave.
"Oh..." You are thinking about asking if Eridan saw them arrive, just so you knew if Kankri got some pants on. "Want to watch a movie or something?" You feel awkward in all truths, he must feel the same with the way he looks so rigid.
He nodded. You headed back to your room, hoping he'll just understand to follow you. You open your door as he follows closely behind. You head in and gesture to your movie shelf. "All I have is romcoms sorry..." You know that most of the other trolls (Sollux practically) don't really like your romcoms.
"This may surprise you but I actually like romcoms." Eridan says walking over to the shelf and looking them over. You look around for something the two of you can sit on. You walk to a corner of your block and push out the loveseat you lay on to watch your romcoms on your computer. Shoving your computer chair out of the way with a nick of your ass, it rolls out of the way only to be replaced with a loveseat, you are surprised when Eridan comes to help you. After it's placed you being the clumsy troll you are walk to take the movie he's gotten, your foot is caught on the loveseat and you trip.
He gasped softly and gets his hands under you fast enough before you any closer to the ground. He blushes softly and you quickly straighten out. "Fuck sorry." You curse your bad balance and take the movie, turning to put in the port of the husktop. Eridan sits on the loveseat, squished against the arm rest.
You turn and look at him. He is pushed up against the arm rest as far from the other side which you'll be sitting on as possible. You sit down and look at him for a moment before looking to your computer and starting up the movie. The previews are ones you've seen so many times. You could practically mouth the words with the actors. Though, you didn't.
The movie continued on. Eridan slowly began to relax more. You were never stiff or awkward in the first place. You are soon shoulder to shoulder with him, though you're losing focus on the movie. You can feel your eyelids droop and you are starting to fall asleep. You blink yourself awake, though it didn't work very well. Eventually you are leaning on Eridan's shoulder purring softly as you doze. He stiffens, hearing your soft purrs he doesn't move.
After a while you are in a deeper sleep, and Eridan is soon falling asleep as well, not wanting to move you he falls asleep with his head resting upon yours.
Authors note: Alright, I noticed I have gotten quite a few people following this, and I have to say that I'm sorry this chapter is so fucking short, but I thought this was a better place to end it then any other places. Please, if you like the story review and I'll actually be able to make shout outs next time ^u^ Thank you! 3
