Chapter 7

Sykkuno's POV

"In that case I apologize too" I said as I ran inside the condo leaving Corpse outside, tears rolling down my cheeks as I did so.

Since my apartment was on the 32th floor where the penthouse was so I had no choice but to take the elevator. Thankfully no one was there once it opened so I went in and sobbed quietly, waiting for the shaft to reach my floor.

But of course it didn't go as smoothly as I hoped. It stopped on the 7th floor where the pool/lounge area was and it opened slowly. Someone walked in but I didn't see cause I was looking away so they don't see my weeping face.

But I think they noticed I was crying anyways because they gently tapped on my shoulder.

"Hey, you good...? Wait lemme rephrase that, do you need help?" The person soothingly asked, I was glad they rephrased their original question. Because no, I was not good.

"N-No its okay...don't worry about me..." I reassured while sniffling slightly, still avoiding eye contact. I heard them sigh, "Look, Sykkuno what happened?" The person asked, wait! How did he know my name.

I whipped my head around to see who it was.

"Toast?!" I sniffled, now that it was a person I knew I hugged him distressingly and cried.

Toast's POV

"Toast?!" Sykkuno exclaimed as he hugged me tightly and started crying. I was surprised for a moment but then gently started to pat his head.

I'll be honest, I've sorta knew Sykkuno and I lived in the same place for a while now. It all started around a month ago when I saw him sitting on the lobby couch using his phone. He didn't notice me and I didn't want him to know we lived in the same place, so I just continued on with my day.

And I'll be honest again, I liked Sykkuno. So seeing him all sad and crying when I entered the elevator I couldn't help myself I just had to help.

And now here I am, comfortingly patting his head as he hugged me whilst crying on my jacket.

It stopped on my floor first, which was the 25th floor. Then once we reached his floor, which was the penthouse floor I slowly went out the elevator, Sykkuno still sobbing on my shoulders.

"We're here, now wheres the key to your door?" I said gently, trying to sounds as comforting as possible. I wasn't usually the type to be 'comforting' of others, but Sykkuno was a special case.

He slowly got the keys from his pocket and handed it to me. I sighed,

Guess I'll have to take care of him for a while then huh...

"Which one?" I asked, still patting his head. On the top floor there were two penthouses, both of them taking half the floor equally. One on the left and one on the right with the elevator and a hallway separating them.

"L-Left" Sykkuno hiccuped, his crying died down but you can still hear him sniffling.

I nodded and went to the left door and inserted the key in. I twisted the key and it opened, me and Sykkuno went in. I locked the door and the first thing I did was bring him over to the living room where the huge U couch was with a coffee table in the center of the couch.

I like how they probably spent most of the construction budget to the penthouses rather than the apartments on other floors. Because goddamn this place was huge and well decorated. The furniture and decors weren't something you'd expect from a person like Sykkuno.

I laid me and Sykkuno down on the couch, making him sit on my lap as he continued to hug me tightly. His breathing was still uneven so I let him calm down first.

Once his breathing finally evened out I asked him what happened, still gently rubbing his back.

"So...you okay now?" I asked comfortingly.

He nodded slightly and then slowly got off my lap and laid down on the couch. I saddened a bit when he got off my lap. But only a bit, my crush for him isn't to the point where I'll crave seeing or touching him. It was just a simple crush nothing more it'll eventually die down, just like how my feelings died down to old crushes.

So right now I just wanted to be a helpful friend, nothing more.

"Mind telling me what happened? Or you'd rather not speak about it?" I asked still, sounding gentle and comforting.

His eyes started to water once again and his face started to scrunch up. He was about to cry again, so I wrapped my arms around him and started to rub his back soothingly.

It worked sort of, he still sniffled but no crying. "Its okay if you don't want to." I reassured soothingly.

~Time skip ~

After a while of me just hugging Sykkuno tenderly he mumbled something.

"You can let go now, Im okay-er now" he mumbled.

So I did and just looked at him for a moment. It looked obvious he was just crying because the dried up tears left stains on his cheeks.

"Well...guess I'll get going then..." I said, slowly standing up.

"Please stay..." Sykkuno begged, sad that I'll leave.

I froze and thought about it for a moment. It was a battle between being a good friend and my tiredness wanting to sleep in my apartment already. Eventually good morals won and I fell back on the soft couch.

God I just wanted some sleep.

"Y'know...I'll just sleep anyways right?..." I said as I looked over at Sykkuno.

"Are you kidding me!" I groaned in annoyance. Sykkuno was already fast asleep, sleeping with his back straight up.

I slightly chuckled, impressed that he was able to sleep like that. I gathered enough energy to carry him and walked over to his bedroom. Wherever that may be.

He was surprisingly light despite being almost as tall as me. (Yes, I made Toast taller than Sykkuno in this book)

Once I found his bedroom I laid him down on his bed. I got his blanket and placed it on top of him. I sat down on the bed and stared at him for a while, he looked so cute right now I couldn't help it.

Deciding that what I was doing was rather creepy I got up from the bed, or well I was gonna get up from the bed. But Sykkuno, who I was now questioning whether he was awake or not, grabbed my hand and pulled me down on the bed.

He was definitely awake.

But I wasn't gonna deny, the bed was so soft and comfortable. It was way softer than the couch and my bed. So I didn't deny nor question what he was doing and just lied down, getting comfortable and placing the blanket over me as well.

Then from out of nowhere he started cuddling me. I scoffed at our positions right now. I was the small spoon and HE was the big spoon despite being shorter.

I removed his arms off me and faced him. His eyes were open and looked awkward nervous now.

His eyes started to water again. "I-Im sorry..! You can leave if you want now." He apologized, tears already rolling down his face.

I shushed him up by suddenly leaning in and kissing him. He closed his eyes and kissed back. It wasn't a long kiss but it also wasn't a short one either. I pulled away and spooned him.

The sound of raindrops could be heard hitting the rooftop, it sounded so relaxing and calming.

"I was planning on sleeping on the couch, but this is better." I said as my last words before falling asleep.

Im sorry? Corpseskunno will sail though so don't worry...Poor Toast and Rae ;<
