Splendont was pissed.
No.
He was beyond pissed. He was absolutely furious.
And he took it out on the innocent forest he was currently hiding in, tearing up trees, plants, whatever he could get his hands on.
At last, only a few trees remained in the destroyed forest. Panting angrily, the red haired male uprooted one last tree and slammed it on the ground until it broke in half.
Finally, the red hero stopped and attempted to calm himself, standing in the destroyed clearing and letting out deep huffs, gloved fists opening and closing. He was atleast somewhat satisfied after venting his anger out on the innocent trees.
"Umm," his keen ears automatically picked up on the timid voice and turned to the source with a harsh glare. "A-are you okay?"
With a snort, Splendont faced forward again. "Do I look okay?" He growled sarcastically.
Really now, did she not just see him wreck half the forest?
He could practically feel the nervousness emitting from her form as she clung to the closest intact tree. "W-well, I-I saw what h-happened earlier a-and just wanted to see if maybe y-you needed some help.."
Wow, this girl must have gathered up a ton of courage just to talk to him, from the amount of stuttering and how shaky her voice was, Splendont was able to easily tell that she would rather be anywhere but here with him.
"And exactly how would you help me?" He spat venomously, feeling his anger ebb down with each passing second.
"Um," he glanced back at her and could see her struggling for what to say. "Uh..I.." Her words trailed off, which for some reason annoyed him.
"What," he started, spinning on his heel and taking long strides to her shaking form. "You what? You thought you would just waltz right in here and tell me to feel better?"
"Hm? Is that what you thought?" By now he had the petite redhead backed up against the tree, shivering violently as she seemed to be practically trying to merge with the tree to get away from him. "Seriously, I don't even know why I try anymore."
She never replied, merely stared at him with those scared wide eyes, trembling fingers clinging to her sweater. "I mean can you even imagine what it's like to try your best to help people, only for you to get no credit for your work just because some blue idiot comes in last minute and nearly kills everyone whilst trying to help you with something you could handle on your own?"
Great, now he was ranting and he could feel his temper flaring back up as he took out his frustration on the innocent redhead in front of him. "Well? Can you? Can you imagine being thought of as the bad guy even though you've done nothing to prove that you're bad?" His seething scarlet eyes glared down at her, catching the quick shake of her head.
"I didn't think so," he scoffed, but the longer he dwelled on the subject, the more angered he became and next thing he knew his fist had buried into the bark above her, causing her to flinch and cover her head. "It's just so fucking sickening to see everyone cheer for that dumbass when all he does is get them killed." He gritted out.
The corner of his lip suddenly curled up into a bitter smirk. "Maybe I should just be a bad guy since that's what everyone sees me as."
"I-I," the tiny redhead finally piped up, it seemed to be taking her great effort just to keep herself standing let alone talk. "I d-don't think that you're a b-bad guy."
Well, that caught his interest, fist still embedded in the tree, Splendont leaned down slightly to stare at her curiously, though he still carried a biting edge to his tone due to his anger. "Really now? And what makes you say that? 'Cause from what I see everyone likes to take the idiot's side."
Flaky gulped nervously, before forcing herself to squeak out a reply. "B-because I've seen you try to g-genuinely help p-people and to be h-honest.." She trailed off, unsure if she should keep talking.
But Splendont wasn't having it. Ripping his fist out of the trunk and showering them both in broken pieces of bark, the red hero then lowered that hand to hook a finger under her delicate chin, lifting her gaze up to his. "Go on." He encouraged in a softer tone.
Gulping audibly, Flaky decided to continue, nervously holding his intimidating gaze. "Um..to be h-honest I t-think you do a b-better job than S-Splendid."
Just by those words, Splendont felt his burning anger die down a bit, sending her the tiniest of smiles Splendont searched her wide eyes to see if she was telling the truth and not just out of fear. "Really now?" He muttered quietly, finding no signs of lies in those crimson orbs.
She nodded lightly. "Y-yes, I've seen you m-make more of an effort to make s-sure that everyone comes out a-alive compared to Splendid who k-keeps doing stuff that gets them k-killed."
The fire that fueled his anger had now died down to a fizzle thanks to the honest words of this petite girl. Splendont's smile grew, his thumb brushing along her smooth cheek. "So, you never once thought of me as the bad guy?"
Cheeks becoming tinged with pink, Flaky shook her head. "N-Never."
His scarlet eyes drifted closed as he pressed his forehead against hers. "Thank you Flaky. It's nice to have atleast one person on my side."
Flaky blinked. He knew her name? His voice does sound familiar now that she thought about it...
Her blush deepened when his hands drifted to touch her neck lightly, playing with the hairs that drifted down her back.
He released a sigh, heated breath ruffling her dandruff infested hair as his scarlet eyes drifted open to gaze deeply into hers. "I wish more people were like you." He whispered heatedly, lowering down fully to gently press his lips to hers.
He slowly pulled back, catching her permanently wide eyes, her glossy pink lips trembling lightly from the brief kiss, leaving her burning lips aching for more. "Thank you, I guess you did help me after all." He murmured, turning away to leave.
Fingers touching her lips, Flaky smiled at his back as she finally connected the pieces. "See you at work tomorrow...Spencer."
Splendont froze for a brief second before continuing on. "Yeah, see you."
Flaky giggled, before pushing off of the tree and going her own way. Did her normally silent boss honestly expect her to not recognize him when he only had a flimsy mask to hide his identity?
