A/N: HI guys, just a warning. There is self harm in this chapter! I do NOT believe in this kind of stuff and hope none of you guys ever do this. Without further ado, on with the chapter!

Previously on, "Friends with Benefits"

Cross P.O.V: Nightmare hung up. All color in my face had drained and my eye sockets went dark. This wasn't a matter of killing a stranger or someone I didn't care about! I was just ordered to KILL my best friend and crush! How was I supposed to do that! I only realized I was about to cry when Epic asked, "You ok bruh? You're looking a bit pale, even for a skeleton!". Huh, oh I'm fine, just a bit rattled. I lied. We should get to bed, it's pretty late! I suggested, he agreed and we both went to get some sleep. But sadly that didn't happen for me, as soon as I got into my bedroom I started sobbing quietly, as so Epic wouldn't hear. I ended up crying all night cause I was still awake by the time morning came. I got up and got dressed into some clean cloths, then went down stairs. Epic was still asleep so I washed my face and tried my best to hide my tiredness. I went into the kitchen and grabbed a chocolate bar, then I went to the living room and sat down next to where Epic was sleeping. I could feel guilt rising inside of me, I could finish my mission right now; he's asleep so he won't feel anything, plus he won't know who did it... Right? No I couldn't do that! I wouldn't do that! I'll find a way around this somehow!

Now on with the story:

Cross's P.O.V: Epic went back to his Au when he woke up, leaving me alone. I honestly was half tempted to ask him to stay, but I didn't. So I was left alone to think of a way to avoid hurting him.                                                              I didn't realize I had been looking for a way all day, till I looked at the clock. It was one in the morning. I decided to try and get some sleep, failing miserably, I walked down stairs to make something. I opened a drawer; I grabbed a small knife out of the drawer and walked back up to my room. I slid my sleeves up and positioned the knife at the base of my wrists. One cut, two cuts, three cuts, four, two on each wrist. I wrapped the cut's in bandages, then slid my sleeves down to cover them; for some reason I felt a bit better, I put the knife away in a drawer then pulled out my phone.

Cross: Hey dude, you up?

Epic: Yea bruh, why?

Cross: I was wondering if you wanted to meet up at a café or something!

Epic: Sure bruh! Where?

Cross: How about Muffets!

Epic: Sure in about 30 minutes?

Cross: Alright, see you in 30 minutes!

Epic: See ya bruh!


Epic's P.O.V: I got dressed and went down stairs, Pap's was already up making breakfast. I decided to watch some memes. After watching a few memes I looked back at the clock, it was almost time to go; I put my boots on and set out for Muffets.                                                                                        As soon as I got their I saw Cross leaning against the wall sharpening his long ass knife, I walked up to him, Hey bruh! I called out to him, "Hey dude." Cross replied back, but he sounded tired and hoarse. You alright bruh? You're sound kinda tired. "I'm fine, just had some trouble sleeping is all. Now, are we gonna stand out here all day, or go get something to drink?" Cross stated. We both walked in, I ordered some hot coco and cookies, Cross ordered some hot coco as well, but nothing to eat.                                                                                                                                            When we left, we went to our normal spot. We chatted, watched memes, reenacted memes, and just hung out like normal, but when it was time to go he seemed kinda scared to leave; I asked him if something was wrong but he said he was fine then left. Being honest, I didn't believe him, and I was a bit worried about him. The other day, when we had our sleep over. After he went to his room to 'go to sleep' I followed cause I was worried about him, but when I got to his room I... I saw him crying so hard you might think someone close to him died! It worried him cause the next morning Cross acted like everything was fine and he didn't just cry his eye sockets out!
