They're Just Rumors
---Horror's POV----
I placed the axe up against the wall, next to my school bag then walked over to my bed and flopped down onto it, lifting my head up to look at Lust. He stared at me, a light purple covering his cheeks.
I groaned and sat up, patting the space next to me on the bed. He gave me an odd look before walking over to me and sitting on the bed, shuffling back and tucking his legs up to his chest.
"So..." I started. "Did they actually....do anything to you?"
Lust looked blankly at the wall opposite and shook his head. "You got there in time....thanks..."
"No problem." I muttered.
I glanced at him. He goes to Craitown High and is in the same year as me and the others. I don't see him round school much, there are too many rumours to count going around school about Lust.
Most of them being about how he's some pervert rapist or something which I think is ridiculous seeing as we're only in highschool.
Anyway if people saw what happened today, I'm sure they'd change their minds.
"What happened out there?" I asked, wanting to know the whole story.
Lust stiffened and took a shaky breath before beginning to talk. "Well... I was walking back from school, heading back home when a bunch of people started following me. It was the people who like to spread fake shit about me.
So I tried to loose them and ran, not really paying attention to where I was going. I ended up down here. I know this place a little bit, so I was walking down, trying to taking a shortcut to get home.
Then those three men jumped me and dragged me down the road. This guy was looking out of his window as it happened and I screamed at him for help, but he just stood there watching it unfold with this sadistic grin on his face.
Then you basically know the rest. They dragged me down that alleyway and tried to....." He stopped talking and I didn't push him to say anymore.
Instead I wrapped an arm around him and pulled him into my chest. He didn't protest and melted into the hug, gripping me tightly, like if he let go he'd be dragged away again.
"Your safe now." I muttered, stroking the top of his skull reassuringly. He whimpered and hugged me tighter, clearly not planning on letting me go any time soon. I continued to stroke the top of his head, he seemed to calm down and his breathing slowed.
I smirked as I realised that he had fallen asleep in my lap. He looked so calm and peaceful now, which is a good thing of course. I shifted him off my lap and placed him on the bed, pulling the blanket over his small form, tucking him up before moving away from the bed and over to my decaying sofa.
The poor thing was slowly disintegrating I swear, the fabric was old and dirty and it was even peeling off in some places. I collapsed onto it and shifted about to get comfy. Then I shut my eyes and let sleep take over.
---Time Skip---------------------
---Lust's POV----
I woke up in a panic, the sheets tangled around me. I took in shaky breaths and looked around. Where am I? What happened? Oh god. Did I....
I looked to the side to see someone snoring on the sofa, at first I panicked but then I realised who it was and all the memories of yesterday came flooding back to me.
I shivered and clutched the blankets and pulling them tightly around me. Horror shifted in his sleep and rolled so he was facing me. He was still asleep and had a small line of drool dribbling from his mouth.
I smiled and watched him, thinking about how we barely knew each other but he had come to save me all the same. Most people would have ignored what was happening anyway. The people at school would think I was a part of it because of those rumours.
I shook my head and continued to look at Horror. I wasn't checking him out! Well, maybe a little bit.
"Are you enjoying watch me sleep?"
Horror opened his eyes and smirked at me. I let out a squeak and looked away. "N-NO!"
"You seemed to be enjoying it." He called teasingly. I huffed and crossed my arms over my chest, not wanting to hear any more.
He laughed behind me and sat up. I glanced back at him and he smirked and winked at me. I quickly looked away again, a purple blush covering my face.
I could hear Horror shuffling about behind me and I risked another quick glance behind me. Horror had his back to me and was holding a clean shirt in his hands, he placed it on the sofa them pulled off the one he was currently wearing.
I felt my face heat up and I quickly looked away as he slipped the clean shirt on. I looked over at the window and out at the street. We were only a few floors up, so the view wasn't amazing, but it was still a view. Even if it only was of the dirty apartment opposite.
I felt something prod my shoulder and I turned to see Horror, now fully changed, with his schoolbag slung over one of his shoulders. That's when I realised. "Shit. I dropped my bag back down at that alleyway."
Horror glanced out of the window then at the clock that was hung up on the wall. "We'll have time to get it if we're quick."
I nodded. "If its not to much trouble."
"Eh, it should be fine." Horror grunted, grabbing my hand and pulling my up to my feet.
---Time Skip----------------------
"Can you find it?" Horror called from the end of the alleyway.
"No!" I hissed, edging round the body of the tiger guy. Its gotta be here somewhere! I scanned the floor for my bag, only seeing bits of rubble and torn umbrella.
There!
Something sticking out in the rubble. I ran over to it and leant down. Yes! My bag! I grabbed it and ran back to Horror, jumping over the body of the tiger guy. The two men had gone somewhere, the only thing left from them being two puddles of dried blood.
I ran over to Horror and he gripped my arm, pulling me long suddenly.
"Come on we're gonna be late!"
---Dust's POV----
"Where the hells Horror?" Killer growled, glancing out the gate.
Nope.
Still no sign of him.
"How should we know?" I muttered. "Maybe he's ill or something."
"When have you ever known Horror to get ill?" Fell said. "He's like immune to everything I swear."
"THERE HE IS!"
We whipped round to see Nightmare pointing at two figures that were running across the road to the school gates.
"Who's he got with him?" Fell muttered, squinting at the two of them.
"I can't tell from here." I said, also trying to see who Horror was dragging along with him.
"Ha! I don't believe it!" Nightmare said suddenly.
"Who is it?" I asked curiously.
"Its the slut!"
We all turned back to look at them. It was! Now that Nightmare had pointed it out, I could see that it was indeed Lust. I let out a whistle. "Horror knows how to pick 'em doesn't he?"
Horror and Lust made it through the gate and said something to each other, we were too far away to hear.
Lust then ran over to the school building, running inside. We watched him go, then turned as we heard Horror running over to us.
"So, you and the slut huh?" Fell said.
Horror growled and pushed past us. "Its not what you think."
"Oh I think it is." I laughed.
"I'm surprised Horror." Fell said. "You wouldn't think anyone would be interested with all those rumours going roun-"
"They're just rumours." Horror growled, cutting him off suddenly. We all looked at him and he shook his head. "I'll explain later."
