Y/n's POV:

This guy sucks as a traveling companion not gonna lie. He just kinda stares and walks behind me. As some point I couldn't take it anymore and stopped walking. "𝕀𝕤 𝕥𝕙𝕖𝕣𝕖 𝕒 𝕣𝕖𝕒𝕤𝕠𝕟 𝕪𝕠𝕦'𝕧𝕖 𝕤𝕥𝕠𝕡𝕡𝕖𝕕 𝕚𝕟 𝕥𝕙𝕖 𝕔𝕖𝕟𝕥𝕖𝕣 𝕠𝕗 𝕥𝕙𝕖 𝕣𝕠𝕒𝕕?" He asked. "Yes." I said, grabbing his hand and sitting him down in front of a tree. "You've been quiet. Its annoying me. So heres what we're gonna do." I said, jumping up to a branch above me and sitting on it, my left leg dangling down. "We're gonna get to know each other. We are gonna ask each other 10 things about themselves. " I said, staring at him intensely. "𝕐𝕠𝕦... 𝕒𝕣𝕖 𝕗𝕠𝕣𝕔𝕚𝕟𝕘 𝕞𝕖 𝕥𝕠 𝕤𝕠𝕔𝕚𝕒𝕝𝕚𝕫𝕖?" He asked, snickering before bursting into laughter. "𝔾𝕠𝕠𝕕𝕟𝕖𝕤𝕤 𝕐/𝕟, 𝕙𝕠𝕨 𝕕𝕠 𝕪𝕠𝕦 𝕥𝕒𝕝𝕜 𝕞𝕖 𝕚𝕟𝕥𝕠 𝕥𝕙𝕖𝕤𝕖 𝕥𝕙𝕚𝕟𝕘𝕤. 𝕍𝕖𝕣𝕪 𝕨𝕖𝕝𝕝 𝕥𝕙𝕖𝕟." He said, leaning on the tree. "Whats your name?" I asked. "𝕄𝕪 𝕟𝕒𝕞𝕖 𝕚𝕤 𝕦𝕙𝕞... 𝕏𝔻" I just looked at him. "Like literally the letters X and D?" He nodded. That bugged me. He needed a nickname. No way in hell am I calling him "XD".  Lets see... Josh Anthony Xander Luke Brendan Landon shit face freaky mask guy Egoistic-

"𝕁𝕖𝕤𝕦𝕤 𝕔𝕙𝕣𝕚𝕤𝕥 𝕤𝕥𝕠𝕡" XD abruptly said, smirking. " 𝕎𝕙𝕒𝕥'𝕤 𝕪𝕠𝕦𝕣 𝕘𝕣𝕖𝕒𝕥𝕖𝕤𝕥 𝕗𝕖𝕒𝕣." He said, looking at me intently. "Oh damn we're going into THOSE kind of questions" I said nervously. "Well..." I began to think... Dark? No... Spiders? No... wait...

"I guess its... being alone" I said, shrugging. He nodded. I sighed. "All right I guess its my turn now. Whats your greatest fear?" I asked leaning forward in anticipation. "𝕄𝕚𝕟𝕖...? 𝕐𝕠𝕦." He said without hesitation. I full on laughed at that. "You? The fucking 6'8 man, are scared of me, the 5'6 girl." I giggled. "I guess I can be kind of scary." I said. Suddenly, something whizzed by my face. My face suddenly stung, and out of shock, I fell backwards, landing hard on my back. It was a fucking skeleton. I hissed from the pain, but grabbed the small knife I had and swiftly slid under its boney legs, and struck it in the spine, which put a quick end to it. "Ugh... asshole." I mumbled, stretching my back. "Fuck that hurt. Are you okay-"

He was frozen, looking at the skeleton. His hands were sort of shaking. Is he having a panic attack? "Hey are you okay?" I said, crouching down next to him. Suddenly, his arms engulfed me, pulling me tight into his muscular body, his head buried in the crook of my neck. Originally, I would have bitch slapped anyone who did that to me without consent, but I personally know how panic attacks are. Sap and Dream had them all the time. I stroked his blonde hair, and hummed a song as he clung to me in an attempt to calm him down. And it seemed to work, his breathing slowed and his hands started to not shake. But he squeezed me. "𝕋𝕙𝕚𝕤 𝕚𝕤 𝕖𝕩𝕒𝕔𝕥𝕝𝕪 𝕨𝕙𝕪 𝕀'𝕞 𝕤𝕔𝕒𝕣𝕖𝕕 𝕠𝕗 𝕪𝕠𝕦..." He mumbled, before finally letting me go. "I didn't know you would get so scared of a skeleton." I smirked, holding my hand out to help. He scoffed, and took my hand. A drop of rain suddenly plopped on my nose. And then another. And then it began to rain all over. The song sounding so rough and scary, yet so beautiful and calming. I looked up at him, and he pulled his dark green cloak over my body, shielding my from the rain. I couldn't help it... but when I looked at him... his mask... I couldn't help but feel so... so... light. It was sort of like time had slowed, except for the rain, which plucked at his cloak and hood. But all I was looking at was him. And all he was looking at was me.

It seemed like it was just us in that storm.
