The Couch

AN: Sorry it's been so long and yes this chapter will be short deal with it. I don't own SCII. R and R.

Nightmare woke up with a sore back from having to sleep on the couch. "Ugh, what a night!" moaned Nightmare. Sophitia was already up cooking. "Oh, Sophitia! You're making breakfast? Can I have some eggs?" asked Nightmare sitting down at the table. Sophitia however didn't give Nightmare any food instead she ate the eggs in front of him. Not even looking at his face. "Your breath stinks." Then she walked away. Nightmare breathed on his hand then ran up to the bathroom.

Later Nightmare gets on the computer to look for a job. "Let's see with my skills and college experience I can be either a stripper or get a job being a bus boy." Nightmare sighs. It looked like he'd be in the gutter for a long time. Suddenly the phone rings. Nightmare picked it up and spoke, it was Ivy.

"Hello?"

"Is this Nightmare?"

"Yes it is, hi Ivy."

"Hey, Sophitia told me about your situation. Why don't you go into landscaping?"

"You mean like clean out people's gutters?"

"Yeah, you can start with mine!"

"Sigh, when do you want me to come over?"

"ASAP."

"Alright, I'll charge sixty dollars."

"Brilliant, I'll see you soon."

It wasn't long before Nightmare pulled up to the house. Ivy was sitting on the porch when he pulled up. Nightmare walked up to Ivy and she began to instruct him. "There is a ladder in the shed, take as long as you like I'll be inside ring the doorbell if you need something." Nightmare nodded then went to work on the roof.

Nightmare was about halfway through working on the roof when he encountered a squirrel. However Nightmare didn't want to get too close because the squirrel could have rabies. Yet the dumb animal was also keeping him from cleaning out the gutter.

"Okay little buddy, can you just er…. Shoo?" The squirrel did not move. Nightmare leaned in closer and pretended like he was going to hit the animal but the squirrel did not flinch. "Alright, you need to leave so I can finish this gutter." The squirrel just stared blankly at Nightmare. "Stupid animal." Nightmare tried to grab the squirrel but suddenly the woodland creature attacked him and tried to bite Nightmare's neck. Nightmare screamed as he tried to get the squirrel off his back.

"Get off! Get off!" he yelled. Finally Nightmare managed to throw the squirrel onto the chimney but the squirrel got right back up and lunged again at Nightmare. Nightmare dodged the squirrel and the squirrel fell screaming to it's death. "That's right! I'll do you old school!" taunted Nightmare. Then he heard moans coming from the chimney. He went to investigate.

All he heard was: "Oh! Astroph! Do me harder! Yes! Yes! Yes!" moaned Ivy. "Yeah I know you like that!" moaned Astroph. Nightmare sank, Ivy was having an affair! Nightmare couldn't believe it, he had always thought Ivy and Voldo had a good marriage. Apparently he was wrong. Shocked he rolled off the roof of the house onto the grass. As he lay there eyes wide rarely blinking squirrels began to surround him.

Nightmare looked around as the squirrels began to scoot in closer. "Hey! Get back!" he commanded. However the squirrels were not stopping, this worried Nightmare. All of a sudden the squirrels' eyes flashed red and Nightmare shut his eyes and screamed. Ivy came running out in only her robe. "What's wrong Nightmare?" she asked worried.

"The squirrels are attacking me!" whimpered Nightmare. "No they're not. They're dancing. Nightmare opened his eyes to see the squirrels all dancing in a circle humming a catchy tune. "It's a cover up!" proclaimed Nightmare. Then Nightmare looked at Ivy and remembered what he had overheard. He quickly finished the roof, got his money and began to drive home. Far away from Ivy's affair and the evil demonic squirrels.

AN: next chapter coming soon keep posted. Review!
