CHAPTER 12:
(Normal POV)
The next morning, Evil was the first to wake up, he looked down at the red-furred porcupine wrapped in his arms, fast asleep. She had her head rested on his chest and her warm breath soothed him. He watched her sleep for a little while longer, a warming smile glued to his face, until she began to wake up.
Her eyes slowly opened and quickly adjusted to the sunlight that beamed through the curtains, Flaky smiled up at Evil and snuggled even closer to him,
"Good morning, Evil." She softly whispered. Evil cupped her chin and lifted her face until their eyes met,
"Last night was the most amazing night of my existence, and I'm so glad that you were the first." He softly whispered to her, and she smiled at him,
"And the only," She added, giving him a quick kiss before shuffling to the edge of the bed to put her robe on, "now I'm going for a nice hot bath... Care to join me?" She then asked with a wink, causing Evil to immediately jump out of bed to go with her,
"Don't mind if I do!" Then with that, they both locked themselves in Flaky's bathroom.
Whiles things seemed all bright and happy at Flaky's house, Giggles wasn't at all cheerful as she used to be, and Petunia was trying her best to make her forget about Splendid. But as she guessed herself, she wasn't even close to having any luck with that.
Giggles had been sobbing and sniffling all night and all morning, and Petunia had to stay over for her, mainly because she couldn't trust her alone. After all, Giggles was furious with Flaky, and she had been cursing and threatening to kill her all morning. But honestly, Petunia had her own secrets, and all though she was desperate to let everyone know who she wants, she also feared the consequences of it. So shaking off the thought, Petunia tried once again to calm Giggles down,
"Listen, Giggles, crying about it isn't going to make it any better-"
"You're right!" Giggles then yelled, cutting Petunia off, "I need to go and see Flaky and show her who she's messing with!" Giggles added, and Petunia regretted saying that earlier,
"No, Giggles, uh... That's not what I meant."
"Well I meant it, and I'm going to see Flaky and tell her just how I feel in person!" Giggles exclaimed, throwing the large pile of used tissues out of her way before stumbling to her feet to head towards the door. Petunia, who was beginning to think of that one person she had taken an interest in, anxiously followed behind her. But Petunia considered herself lucky at this moment in time as she would probably be able to see HIM...
Evil and Flaky were relaxing in Flaky's bath, which actually appeared to look like more of a hot tub. Evil was lay back against the cushioned corner of the tub, whiles Flaky was resting on his chest, twirling his dog tags in her fingers. They weren't speaking much, but they were enjoying each other's company.
Even though Evil had changed for the better, Flaky often thought about him before Flippy was gone, and how he was always vicious and harsh towards others. But she thought about when Flippy disappeared and left Evil to himself, Flaky expected him to be on a rampage 24/7, but instead he chose to spend his long-lost time with her. Deep down inside, Flaky couldn't say that she didn't love him as much as he loved her, she admired nearly everything about him; his well-built body, charming good looks, and even his attitude that Flaky found extremely sexy!
Whiles Flaky was in deep thought about Evil, he was also in deep thought about her. What still made him confused as to why they were together was how he managed to prove his love in the first place. He thought that she would have fled for her life when he was around her, but instead, she showed signs that she truly loved and cared for him more than anything. He especially loved her well-developed, womanly appearance for all the reasons a grown man could think of.
A few moment later, whiles Evil was unaware as he was happily relaxing, Flaky began to drift off to sleep with a strange dream already occurring...
Slaughtered bodies were scattered about the town, and a few unlucky ones were dumped over the borderline, escaping the immortal curse. One familiar female citizen was fleeing for her life out of the woods, her attempts to glance back at the being that caused this chaos that was tracking her down like a cowardly prey, and the hungry predator was Flaky.
The red-furred porcupine stopped as she reached the outside of the woods, eyeing Petunia as she quickly scurried away before her. Then without taking her eyes of the skunk, Flaky reloaded her gun and aimed for her leg before taking a lucky shot and successfully shooting the back of her kneecap. A satisfied smirk tugged at her lips as she walked closer towards Petunia who was now screaming in pain on the ground.
Flaky crouched down beside her and faked a loving smile. Petunia tried her best to avoid her raging glare, but Flaky's determination only made it harder.
"Now, now, Petunia... Do we fully understand the consequences of being a selfish little bitch?" Flaky questioned in a taunting but low and soft tone. Petunia cringed at her words and quickly nodded as the tip of Flaky's gun was roughly pressed onto her cheek,
"P-Please don't shoot me!" Petunia begged, tears streamed down her cheeks as she tightly shut her eyes. Flaky tilted her head to one side and chuckled,
"Oh don't worry, honey, I'm not gonna shoot you," she started as she stood up again, harshly grabbing Petunia's dark blue hair and dragging her up before hissing into her ear, "we're going to have a LONG talk. Girl to girl. How about it, sweetie?"
Petunia could only attempt to nod in her grip before she was then dragging back into the woods. Flaky suddenly stopped as she came across Giggles' dead body, and looked down into her blank staring eyes. With a small sinister chuckle, she rose her foot above the pink-furred chipmunk's head and sharply brought it back down, crushing her skull with ease under the impact. Petunia held back the urge to throw up at the sound of the loud crushing sound. But sight of her friends unrecognisable face, along with the blood and chunks of flesh and brain was way too much for her to look at, and she immediately vomited on the ground in front of her.
"You're... You're possessed!" Petunia hesitantly cried at Flaky. But all Flaky did to silence her was knee her in the gut and yank her hair by its roots before trekking further into the woods,
"I'm not possessed, Petunia. I only want revenge. No mercy, and certainly no turning back..."
Before she even saw what was about to happen next, Flaky's eyes shot open as she darted up. Evil jumped at the sudden surprise, but immediately tried to comfort her,
"What's wrong?" He asked her. The porcupine's paranoia was starting to show, as it always did after she had a creepy dream.
But this dream of hers was confusing Flaky a way that she couldn't explain. She doesn't even know what it was all about, and it kinda gave her the slightest feeling that it was some sort of a sign.
"N-Nothing's wrong... I-I just had a strange dream..." Flaky stammered, struggling to gain focus. Evil gave her a concerned look,
"Are you sure? Your reaction was pretty bad."
"Really, I'm fine." Flaky then stated, acting like she was perfectly fine, even though the dream really made her think that it could be some sort of sign. Or even something that will happen without her even realising.
"Ok... If you say so..." Evil then said, gesturing the cautious female to come over to him. She smiled with a hint of pink in her red-furred cheeks and snuggled into his strong welcoming arms, immediately feeling them wrapping around her waist to pull her even closer.
Flaky felt comfy enough to fall asleep once again, but resisted the urge as she didn't want to end up in her weird excuse for a dream.
As Petunia followed the furious pink chipmunk on her trek towards Flaky's house, she couldn't stop thinking of her secret crush... Maybe she should tell Giggles about it? Or maybe she should just do what she would always do: secretly attempt to see them whiles they're alone. But now that she properly thought about it, when would she find him alone when he's bound to stick by Flaky's side at all costs?
A.N: Anyone see anything odd in Petunia? If you have... leave it in the reviews and tell me what you think!
Just a random little note I have to add: I hate Petunia; she's my least favourite HTF character... Then it's Giggles... Disco Bear... Ah well, it's not like you guys need to know!
I'll try to update ASAP!
