I was pissed. I had to stare at his face. I let out a small evil chuckle, oh! That scared him even more, I should calm him down.
"Relax, Clock! It will be alright, I mean what can go wrong with you being stuck in the thermos with me?"
"A LOT!" Ouch! That hurt! "And I am not even counting the events that include you!"
I raised an eyebrow, but he ignored me. I hovered over to him and grabbed his shoulders, "Clock I said relax and you will!" I put some pressure on him, not too much to hurt him, just to make him go down to the bottom of the thermos with me.
"Situation number 344! Dan, stop right now!" I did stop, but only because we were at the bottom. I let go of him and flopped on the ground of the thermos, "Not 344?"
I looked at Clock's face. It was so full of confusion and worry.
"Lay down Clock. Everything will be all right! I promise," There was nothing I could actually do. I watch him lay down on the ground slowly. I was actually surprised that he actually did it. I would have move closer but that would make him freak out. The only real time he would allow me get close voluntary was when we were in his bed. Every other time I was either in here or he had told me to come to him. We weren't in the step of our relationship where he just accepted things. I knew what the situations that ended with 44 were. They are the situations that included me going crazy and thinking that I'm gay. Which I am not. I have never had a relationship like that and I am not entirely sure if I want one. The only reasons he let me sleep with him sometimes at 'night' is only for sole comfort.
"Dan," His voice snapped me out of my thoughts, "I think you are right."
I smiled. He never admits that he was wrong. He always says that he knows everything and that is true but he is so stubborn!
"Dan, you can come over here if you want…" He looks to the side of the wall instead to me or up. I sit up and I crawl to him.
"Okay what's up? You never let me do this! Clock you don't have to be scared!"
"I'm not. Dan, I just want you to be comfortable in here with me." I lay my head on his chest and he groans.
"Sorry," I removed it. He placed his hand on my head.
"You can keep it there Dan, I just…"
"You what?" What is wrong with Clock?
"I am scared. I am scared of so much! I am stuck in a small cylinder tube with you!" He's ranting again.
"You know I could take that as an insult but please go on."
"Sorry…I am in here with you when I should be out there making sure the time stream is functioning properly! There is so much that could go wrong and if the observants find out that I'm not doing my job it will be even worse!"
"I'll help you when we get out. I can replace the time gears," I yawned out, "I seen you do it Clock. I could help…" I can't stay awake. Clock's voice and his breathing made me sleepy.
"That sounds nice Dan. Have a nice nap," He whispers. I don't know what's going on now, but I'm not complaining. It feels nice.
