Goth flipped the pages of a math book lightly. The only sound you could hear was the sound of the sound of Goths finger sliding against the paper to turn to another boring page of graphs. He then placed his the palm of his hand under his jaw and continue to read.
The sound of a buzz against the table made Goth sit up in surprise. He looked over to his phone to see it was from his mother Geno. The message read:
"Miss you sweety! Keep the house clean!"
Goth rolled his eyes at the nickname but slightly smiled and sighed. He rolled back away from his desk on his rolling chair and looked at the view of the sunny neighborhood. He remembered the hugs and kisses his mother gave when they left for a mini trip away. Goth was happy to know that his parents got some time together, but scared to see what Cross may do. With his parents away, they may come after him more often.
Goth rolled up his sleeve of his hoodie to reveal bite marks. He remembered the sinister voice Cross gave when he gave Goth the mark.
"No one can touch you now. You belong to me!"
His thoughts broke when he saw a familiar figure walking up to his door.
Palette hesitantly knocked on Goths door. He remembered the last meeting they had, he'd rather forget.
The door slowly opened revealing Goth on the other side. Palette perked up and smiled so brightly. He rushed to got and spread his arms around Goth for a tight embrace. Goth, filled with shock, just stood there, his face glowing a light shade of purple.
The moment ended sooner then it began. Goth pushed Palette away. He didn't want it to end. Oh he didn't want it to stop! He wanted Palette to embrace him, kiss him, hold him forever. But he couldn't. He simply pushed him away and crossed his arms. Palette looked hurt by this action, but backed away and didn't bother to protest.
"Goth...I know." Palette grabbed his arm, still looking at Goth. Goth jumped, but didn't react.
"I don't what you mean-" "Oh cut the shit Goth. You don't have to hide from me. I want to help you! What he's doing is wrong and you can't just let him use you like this."
Tears started to fall from Goths sockets. He uncrossed his arms and just grabbed his arm. Palette took a step froward towards Goth. Goth stepped away further into his house. "Palette...please. I know you mean well but you don't understand. Just...go away."
Palette shook his head. "No! Make me understand why you aren't going to the police. Why your not telling your parents. Why you let him do this. Why you don-" "Because I don't want him to kill you!" Goth held his mouth realizing he screamed. The tears came flowing down Goths cheeks. Palette's sockets widened. "Palette. If I tell anyone, or try to get help, he said he'd kill you and everyone I care about. Now your hear and...he's gonna kill you if you don't leave..."
Goth's sentences turned into sobs. Palette walked towards Goth for another embrace. He slowly rubbed Goths back as he sobbed in his arms. "Goth, I will do everything I can to protect you. Please let me help you." Goth looked up at Palette and blushed slightly. Palette leaned in slowly making Goth blush more. Before Goth knew,his teeth were against Palette for a passionate kiss. Goth slowly kissed back, and started to tug on Palettes jacket, to pull him closer into the kiss.
Goth soon realized what he was doing and let go of Palettes jacket. He once again pushed him away. "I'm sorry Palette. But this is my fault. I shouldn't have been selfish and felt the need to ignore you while you were dating Chara. Its better if you stay away from me, so you don't get hurt." Palette slowly tried to step towards Goth again, but Goth just pushed him away. "Goth you can't expect me to let you get for me!"
Goth suddenly turned with his hand out. His eye was glowing a bright purple. His purple tears were shining threw the magic flaming from his left eye. "Palette please. Just go away. I don't want to hurt you." Palette stepped forward. "I don't want to hurt you either Gothy. I want to help you! I love-" Before another word left Palettes mouth, His green and yellow soul was floating in front of his body. He was suddenly flung in the air out onto the sidewalk in front of Goths house.
Palette groaned from the pain of hitting the cement. He jumped when he saw Goths arm up with tears falling from his sockets. "I'm sorry Palette." His voice was so shaky and filled with fear. He lowered his arm and closed the door.
Palette slowly sat up. He didn't expect Goth to be so strong. He also didn't expect Goth to do that at all. He watched as his love just left him like that. Palette turned slowly, and walked away from the love of his life's house.
Meanwhile, Goth ran upstairs in tears. He didn't want to do that, but he had no choice. He slammed the door and fell hugging his knees. In his head he repeated over and over "Its my fault, Its my fault" rocking back and forth, hitting his back against the door.
He jumped in surprise hearing the deep tone of a horrid voice. He looked up to see a skeleton holding an axe.
"Wow, I didn't think you would do that. Good choice though, or the boss would've made me make a head dog out of both you and Palette." Horror made a horrible sounding laugh making Goth sink into his hoodie, hiding his fear for the fearsome skeleton. "Boss is gonna be mad that you told Palette but he already planned that knowing you." Goth sank more feeling the guilt. He was hoping he was bluffing.
"Oh and I won't tell the boss about the kiss, since it seems like it was unwanted." He broke out in his laugh again. Goth hugged his knees tighter, closer to his chest/ribs. Oh how that kiss was magical to him. If anything he wanted more. But he knew that horror was watching. He saw him in the shadows of his living room, away from Palettes view. He so badly wanted to tell him, but horror would have killed him.
He looked away ashamed of what he did to his friend. A flash image came into his head. It was Palettes hurt and heartbroken expression when he sat up from being thrown in the air. It was hell to Goth.
"What do want anyway?" Goth wiped the tears away from under his sockets. "Cross said he would leave me alone to catch up with my school work. He made me miss three days of study." Got sat up and crossed over to his desk, trying to not make eye contact.
"Cross needs you. He needs you at his place now." Horror stepped closer and furrowed his eyes. He was getting impatient.
"What if I don't!?" Goth pounded a fist against his desk. Horror smirked and put his axe next to Goth. "Then I'll just have to take you there by force." He moved his axe closer to Goth's head, making it clear what he meant. Goth crossed his arms. He thought of Palettes words. They swam around his head making him think. "Maybe I can get out of this..."
Horror tapped his fingers impatiently against Goths desk, leaning on to it to make the impression he was waiting. "I'm already broken enough. I'm being his slave! I'm not leaving!" Goth turned around with his eye glowing his beautiful purple magic. Horror smirked with that evil grin he's had since the day he snapped and became who he is. "Fine. We'll do it my way."
He slowly started to walk towards Goth with the horrible grin. He dragged the end of his axe along the floor has he took each step, making a line where the blade of the axe went. Goth's eyes widened in fear. He slowly backed away as Horror took each step. Horror grabbed Goths arm, making him jolt. "D-don't touch me! Get off!" Goth struggled. but Horror had the better grip. "I SAID GET OFF!"
Palette teleported inside of Fresh's living room. Chara was pacing back and forth, while Fresh was just sitting there playing video games, while stuffing his face with Doritos. Chara looked up and saw Palette with his dull eyes, holding his arm. He looked absolutely heartbroken. Chara ran over to hold his shoulders to make him look at them. Fresh looked up and paused his game, and licked the red cheese of his finger.
"Palette what happened?" Chara shook him trying to make him speak or at least look alive. "Yo bro. Tell me whaz up home dog?" Chara glared at his weird vocabulary. Fresh shrugged. Its how he always spoke. Well unless he was in a different mood.
"H-he" Fresh and Chara looked over at Palette when he started to speak softly. "He refused to come with me. I told him I loved him and I want to protect him. B-but he used his magic and threw me out the door." Tears started to form in Palettes eyes. Chara looked a bit angry and made made a ball out of they're fist. "Seriously!? Why would he-"" Because they threatened Goth they would kill me if he tried anything." Chara loosened up and looked a little guilty for getting easily mad. "Which is why we move forward to plan B!" Palette and Fresh looked surprised when Chara jumped like that.
"Yea...I don't think you need a plan...Sibling."
Chara, Palette and Fresh turned to see Cross in the archway separating the kitchen and the living room of Fresh's home. He had an evil smirk plastered on his face, and was holding his big knife over his shoulder.
"C-cross..." Chara almost choked just saying his name.
"Hehe you guys look happy to see me. Especially you Palette. Oh and thanks for giving me me Goth. He's such a good pet." Palette growled and made his hands into Balls of fist. His eye started to glow bright with his green and yellow Magic.
Cross threw his knife on the ground making everyone jump. He leaned on it to support his weight. "Now let me show you, when you dis obey me." He stood straight and firm, and pointed his knife straight at Chara. Fresh casually walked in front of Chara. Tilting his glasses down slightly to see his purple magic. "I don't think so."
Cross only tsked and began to move. Palette summoned his green and yellow paint roller. It glowed in his green and yellow magic. Fresh summoned Radical blasters above his head and began to charge up the magic. Before any of them could make a move, Cross's knife began to grow three times it's original size. It shifted through both Palette and Fresh, making they're health go dangerously low.
Fresh was out in a moment. Palette tried hard not to fall asleep. He felt so week, and so empty. The last thing he saw Chara trying to fight back, but Cross grabbed they're arm roughly, and pulled them away. "S-stop" Palette tried...but then only saw black.
Note: Man that's a hell of a cliffhanger isn't it XD
I'm so glad that you guys are enjoying the story. I'm having making it! I read so many inspiring things, and it makes me cringe when I see the beginning of the chapter. I might go back and fix it all after I'm done with it. I'll just add better vocabulary and fix any spelling mistakes. And fix my grammer XD. Also if you have any questions, you can go on my tumblr and ask me there. But before you ask, I'm not telling you what happened in this chapter XD Your just gonna have to wait.
Welp see you next chapter!
