Faking the Fall (errorink)

5; Falling

“Error, can we talk?” Ink had entered Blue’s room. To his surprise it was empty. His mouth hung open, gaping in a dull shock. On the desk was a puppet. It was the one he had seen Nightmare give to Error. In dreams defense it did look like him. It made Ink think, did Error actually like him? Did Error know he could reciprocate the feelings the same? Was that the reason he kept it quiet?
Ink looked down before turning to walk out. In the doorway was dust. He stared at in in confusion but Ink just glared back, now enraged.
“What are you doing in Blue’s room?” Dust asked simply.
“What are you doing in my home?” Ink snapped.
“I let him in!” Blue called from the lower floor. Dust smirked but Ink simply summoned a portal and shoved him into it.
“I barely allowed Nightmare here. No bad guy sans’s.” Ink snapped.
“ThEn ShOuLd I lEaVe?” Error hummed from his seat on the couch.
“No way! Also Error you should tell Ink what you admitted!” Dream squealed and Error responded instantly with an exceptionally loud groan.
“IlL tElL hIm EvEnTuAlLy.” Error groaned and Blue burst out laughing, falling off the couch to which Error just glared.
“HuSh It BlUe!” Error playfully snapped and Blue teasingly snapped his fingers.
“Oh My GoD bLuE! YoUr TeRrIbLe!” Error groaned and stood. In a moment strings had pulled blue off the ground.
“Error no fair!”
“Yes fair!”
“You didn’t glitch! Ahh I’m so proud Error,”
“Can it dream!” 
“Oh don’t be so mean!”
“Would you both stop already?” Ink piped up
“No!” Blue, Dream, and Error all answered before blue and Dream began laughing like crazy. Error just rolled his eyes and smiled.
“Talk to him~” Dream hissed and Error gaze shot over to the annoying guardian.
“Error… remember what you told me? I think it’s best you tell him now.” Blue whispered. Error relaxed and turned to face blue.
“It’ll be fine Error.” Blue responded.

“So what do you need to talk about?” Ink leaned over. They were in Blue room, where error was currently sleeping and shared with blue, again. Error was holding the puppet again, smiling at it. Ink noticed but didn’t speak of it.
“I bEt YoU nOtIcEd DrEaM’s PeStErInG.” Error began.
“Yea, it’s hard not to… Error-“
“Please- aH pLeAsE dOnT sTaRt ThAt CoNvErSaTiOn RiGhT nOw. I kNoW.” Error hummed rubbing his arm awkwardly. This was becoming rather uncomfortable for him and he despised it.
"So you do?" Ink looked worried and Error wanted to chicken out, to say no and figure out a different way, but he nodded.
"I dO." Error lied. It was a rather convincing lie that he could hold only because Eraser and Ink looked nearly identical.

Error watched Ink with a fascinated gaze. He was so different then eraser yet similar in a way as well. Funnier even was the fact Reboot was supposed to mimic Ink in thinking and acting yet in his multiverse he was so different. Error knew his home multiverse was strange and different but the very fact that even as an a destroyer eraser acted more like Ink then original Error.
"What are you doing Error?" Ink notices the others gaze and smiled simply
"Nothing." He wasn't glitching but as it had been that way on and off for a few days, especially since Ink and Error talked (they had agreed to try out a relationship despite Inks soullessness) things out and began to hang out more.
"Sure about that?" Ink leaned over Errors shoulder and the destroyer took that moment to lean back and smirk. 
"I'm sure." he hummed shocking Ink who hadn't noticed his subtle change. Error couldn't help but laugh. It was so much easier with the difference in height between his Eraser and this Ink. As he remembered more he began to remember smaller events and details. Eraser was a good few inches taller than him. Error was average height for a sans, Eraser tall, and this worlds ink short. He found it very amusing the small differences he noticed between his love and Ink.
"Don't do that!" Ink yelped and Error barely tried to hold back his mad laughs. This wasn't his Ink but he could fake love for him because in a manner he was a lot like Eraser despite their differences.
"Oh and who's gonna stop me?" Error asked slowly summoning strings to wrap loosely around Ink without his noticing.
"I don't know? me?" Ink teased.
"Yea right." Strings tightened their grip and lifted up ink who yelped.
"Error you turn! Let me go." 
"Hah! No way!"

Reboot was curled up in the couch, blankets wrapped around his shoulders.
"I swear boots. Could you be anymore wrapped up and still able to breath?" Eraser teased from the doorway of the kitchen. Reboots head shot to the person now his boyfriend, his best friend, and his roommate. He struck his arms out in a 'hug me' motion.
"Really?" Eraser couldn't help but grin.
"Just come cuddle." Reboot pouted and Eraser couldn't hold back his laugh. He moved over to the smaller skeleton (actually Reboot was an average height for a sans but he was small to Eraser and he never let Reboot forget that) and allowed the darker bones skeleton to wrap his arms around him. Reboot pulled Eraser down next to him and Eraser happily pulled Reboot closer, wrapping his arms around the other.
To think, it's only been about two weeks since Reboot found Eraser again and in the time it was like all the emotions, the love, Reboot had kept locked up had flooded out. He became clingy and over possessive of Eraser. Eraser didn't mind as with his new emotions he realized something that was probably hidden inside him all along, Reboot was his whole world.
"I love you." Reboot cooed curling closer to the other who simply kissed his head and pulled him closer.
"How was your day?" Eraser asked looking down at the sleepy skeleton in his arms.
"Sleep." Reboot responded in the most adorable voice Eraser swore he had ever heard. When Reboot yawned and stretched slightly, the destroyer (well at this point it was a job he only did so he could watch Reboots face light up when he created. He would continue destroying no matter how much he hated it so he could see that face) reached onto the coffee table and took the adorable puppet of himself that Reboot had made. When the creator pulled him close again he handed the sleepy skeleton the puppet who smiled and burrowed his face in it.
"Love you Racey." Reboot yawned. Eraser adjusted his sweatshirt that Reboot wore before sinking closer.
"Love you too Boots. Now get some rest." He watched the other fall asleep and soon followed suite.
