The Forgetful
(A/N I ain't planning for a happy ending)
As we finally made it to my old house Pyrrha let out a sigh of relief, moving a fake rock i found an old spare key.
Unlocking the door i pushed it open to reveal my old house, it was dusty but nothing had really changed.
Pyrrha walked in with me when i noticed an old picture of me, Emerald and Slow Dancer.
It was bitter sweet to see it so i went over and picked it up before wiping the dust off.
Pyrrha: You lived here?
Me: Yeah i did, for a couple years.
Pyrrha: Who are they?
She pointed to the photo making a sad smile spread across my lips.
Me: The horse was called Slow Dancer and the girl... she's Emerald
Pyrrha: Is she important to you?
Me: She was but... things got complicated
Pyrrha: Oh, i'm sorry
I placed the photo back where it was and turned to Pyrrha while keeping up a happy exterior
Me: It's fine, we should get set up anyhow
Pyrrha: Right
Moving around the house i dusted of some of the furniture as Pyrrha looked around.
Going into the fridge i noticed that most of the food had expired, i cringed before picking it up and throwing them away.
Running the tap i noticed that the water hadn't been cut off... huh neat.
Going into the cupboards i noticed that the canned food was still good.
Closing the cupboard i went over to the lights and flipped a switch making one of the lights flicker before dying.
That's another thing i have to buy, i moved through the house and reached my old bedroom.
Opening the door i saw one of my old wheelchairs in it's compact form laying against the wall.
Moving to the wardrobe i opened it, seeing old clothes belonging to me as well as some old jockey clothes.
I sighed before closing it and looking around for Pyrrha, finding her in Emerald's old room i came up to her as she placed a picture frame down.
She turned and saw me which made a small smile come to her face.
Pyrrha: It's a nice house
Me: Yeah... we need to get a couple things like food and light bulbs
Pyrrha: Okay
Timeskip
We came back to the house so i got to work replacing the light bulbs, it was busy work although it allowed me time to think.
Shouldn't i be taking Pyrrha to her friends? Where are they anyway and why if Salem controls my ability to walk then why hasn't she cut it off.
Perhaps she's being lenient with me being her "son" and all, i still don't believe that crap...
Screwing in the final light bulb i stepped down from the step ladder and walked over to the switch before pressing it making the light turn on.
I celebrated in my mind before going over and putting away the step ladder, as i did Pyrrha walked into the living room.
Pyrrha: It's alot nicer with the lights but where are we going to sleep?
Me: I guess... you could take Emerald's old bed
Pyrrha: Can't i sleep with you?
Me: W-What?!
She stepped closer and had her hands behind her back whilst looking clueless.
Pyrrha: We've been sharing beds so isn't it fine?
Me: We did it out of necessity but now we have our own beds
Pyrrha: But... i like it
Me: I'm sorry Pyrrha but people normally don't sleep together unless they're in a relationship
Pyrrha: Then let's be in one!
She grabbed my together and looked at me pleadingly as i was freaking out majorly on the inside.
Me: You should be in one with a good person-
Pyrrha: You are a good person, you're taking care of me and helping me! How aren't you one?
Me: I'm the reason people got hurt!
I pulled my hands away from her as she looked at me confused before i turned around
Me: Beacon was an academy that fell because it was overrun by Grimm, i helped cause that... i-
Suddenly Pyrrha hugged me from behind cutting me off.
Pyrrha: I don't care... you're a good person to me
She moved around me so that we were face to face, still holding onto me.
Why does she think so highly of me? I... i got her killed, i lost control and beat her when she was downed, i-i...
We looked straight at eachother before we slowly began leaning in, as we got closer and closer my heart began pounding faster before i pushed her off inches away.
Pyrrha looked to me confused and hurt but i just turned around and ran into my room before locking the door.
What's wrong with me...?
(Lemme know what you think)
