A Smile {Chapter 10}
April's P.O.V.
Edge and I walked into his room. It was very messy, there was a desk on the far side of the room that had a computer and lots of screwed up paper, his sheet was falling off his bed and his duvet was screwed into a ball, there was also a guitar sticking out from underneath it. The floor was covered in cloths and rubbish, there was a couch near the door, facing a flat screen tv, it wasn't too small but not that big, with an xbox and controllers coming from it.
"Sorry its a mess, I don't usually have visitors." He sighed, scratching the back of his skull.
"Its ok" I replied. Edge walked over to the couch and cleared some mustard bottles onto the floor. He then grabbed a controller and slumped onto the couch.
"You playing or not?" A firm tone in his voice. I picked up a controller and sat down next to him. We played random games for a while after we got bored of that Edge went down stairs to get drinks and some snacks, whilst I had a look round. I walked over to his desk and opened up a piece of paper, wait...these were....song lyrics!? I didn't know he wrote songs, Heh I guess the guitar under his bed made sense now. I looked at few more of the sheets. They were all song lyrics. I eventually got bored and decided to put his sheet on his bed, I have a small bit of OCD so everything must be tidy. I'm able to put up with it at others, although I sometimes find myself tidying up, back on the surface my house was quite literally spotless. I ended up completely making his bed. What was taking him so long? I decided to go see what he was up to. As I walked into the living room I found Edge with two packets of popato chisps, a bottle of mustard and a cup of hot chocolate in his hands, but he looked like he was looking for something.
"What've ya lost?" I asked giving him a puzzled look.
"I've lost my necklace. I don't usually tell people about it so keep it to yourself!" He threw me an angry look. I helped look anyway, I took the popato chisps and the drinks, I set them down on the table next to the couch. I started taking away pillows and squeezing my hand down the back of the sofa, I found a necklace, 20g and an annoying dog. How the heck did a dog get down the sofa!? I gave Edge the necklace and the 20g, he mumbled a thanks and grabbed the drinks and snacks.
"Edge?" I asked as we walked up the stairs
"What?" His voice was sharp.
"Um, if you don't mind me asking, what's so important about that necklace?" I felt bad asking, I really shouldn't be so nosey but I have always wondered.
"My mum gave it to me." There was a sad tone in his voice, lets just say I felt horrible, I guess his mum must've passed away. "Do yourself a favour and don't tell anyone 'bout anything I've told you today."
"Okay, I promise." I gave him a soft smile, was that a hint of a smile back I saw? No probably just my imagination. We got into his room and ate our snacks and we did a downing challenge, of course he won with his mustard. How does he even drink that stuff!? We ended up talking. A lot. Edge surprisingly opened up everything to me. Yeah everything. From Frisk to writing songs. Of course I told him my full story. I could feel myself falling for him, he was only a couple of months older than me, but I knew I had to wait I couldn't just ask him out, not after he just had that incident with Frisk. Maybe I should get them to talk.
~le time skip~
A couple of weeks passed by and It got to the point where I was hanging with Edge almost every day. I had noticed that Blueberry had been talking to Chara a lot recently as well. Frisk had managed to regain her friendship with Blue again, Chara helping him, Blue took it quite well. Edge on the other hand is still avoiding her, she texts him and calls, she even visited him just to try to talk but he refuses. It got worse when he bumped into her, and Sans on their date.
"Edge, please can you please just try talking to her." I begged him. We was at Grillby's, sat in one of the booths since, Frisk and Sans were occupying the seats at the front of the bar.
"No, I don't want to, and anyway she probably hates me," he was refusing again!
"If she hated you would she still have been trying to talk to you all this time, well!? No she wouldn't. Think how she feels, it's clear she still cares about you and wants to be friends. So go over there and apologise." I snapped.
"For what!?" Ugh, he was being so stubborn.
"Look Edge, if Blueberry can make friends with her you should too. Blue has gone through the same pain as you and he has managed to deal with it. He's trying to move on and you should too. Please, I can't imagine how bad she feels, knowing it's her fault you're ignoring her." There was a long silence, Edge just stared at his feet.
"Ugh... As usual you're right, okay fine, I'll be back in a sec." I watched as Edge walked up to the two and tapped Frisk on the shoulder. I was surprised he actually listened. I couldn't tell what they were saying but, Sans' smile got brighter and Frisk smiled and hugged Edge, I noticed a faint tear role down her cheek. I just sat there smiling at them like an idiot. Grillby gave me thumbs up from behind the bar, I gave one back just as Edge returned.
"Well that was easier than expected." I gave him a smug grin. He just looked at his feet, blushed and mumbled for me to shut up. After about a ten second silence He sighed and looked up at me and gave me... THE BIGGEST SMILE I'D EVER SEEN!?!?! Yup you heard right, Edge smiled at me. I guess he wanted to be friends again, he was just scared of rejection, I think. I couldn't help but go completely red at his smile, he just laughed at me. We soon paid and left, when we got back to his we played on the xbox for a bit. Edge left the room to go get something. I could feel myself drifting off to sleep. We had, had a long day and I was exhausted.
Edge's P.O.V.
I came back into the room to find April asleep on the sofa. I picked her up and put her in my bed. It was about 10 at night so i'm not surprised she fell asleep. I called Tori and told that she fell asleep so she was staying here tonight and I crashed on the couch for the night.
(A/N I think imma leave it there. I'm srry i really need to get a schedule sorted. Anyway I hope you enjoyed! Cya :3 )
