Since Cupid's strange personality change, you haven't been able to sleep much at all these past few days.

Your masters became worried about you, Cupid tried to approach you but you left the room he was in. Terrified that he'd switch again.

The others had no idea why you kept avoiding him, all they knew was that the bags under your eyes told them that you lacked sleep.

Even a pair of lavender irises kept tabs on you, studying your every movement.. Observing.. Always observing, just to see what you would do next.

He was a doctor after all, maybe he could help you with your sudden insomnia.

You shut your bedroom door behind you with a yawn, sure Asher helped you with the dishes, but that didn't mean they weren't difficult to do when you were half awake.

You just wanted to fall into your bed an not wake up again, at least for awhile.. But every time you closed your eyes, all you could see what's Cupid's bloody eyes, burning into yours with malice.

You sat on the edge of your bed deep in thought. They were going to fire you surly, you weren't focused. And one of your sweetest masters scared you, he was confused as to why you kept running from him.

Other things made your brain hurt, you thought about unlocking Lockheart's soft side, you thought about their late mother. And you thought about the strange chilly hallways.. That always seemed to smell like vanilla and daisy's at night.

"I need answers.." You groan, rubbing both of your temples to ease the massive headache you've had for a day or two.

"I am here to deliver." A voice said, spooking you. Their voice was a little familiar, like you've heard it before.. Just.. Where?

After a soft patter of feet, the short skeleton from a week ago stood in front of you.

He wore a white jacket with a deep blue spider themed tie. His pants matching the tie, his loafers shined a deep jet black. Little hourglass's were on the heels.

Where did he even come from!?

"W-who are you?" You ask, studying him, he had to be only four feet tall.

He put his arms behind his back, bowing slightly. "I am Fear Hastings. I live in this mansion with the rest of the hybrids. I tend to keep myself isolated from them."

He lived here too? How many skeletons were in this damn house!? And.. Why was he so tiny?

"You said you had questions? I am here to give the answers you seek. Come." He waves you over to the table in the center of your room, which still had the tea set from before sitting on it.

You took a seat across from him, your hands in your lap nervously fiddling with the lace of your skirt.

He takes a sip from his tea cup. "Ask me anything."

"Where.. Where you the one that left me that note when I first got here?" You ask, pointing to the drawer you kept it in.

Fear nods. "Yes, it was my way of greeting the help of the house." Another sip.

"Okay... What's going on with Cupid? Nights ago I found him sleep walking.. It seemed.. He was acting really weird.. And.." Your anxiety got the better of you.

"Cupid suffers from multiple personality disorder. He currently has two voices in his head, when he's asleep they can take over. We've been working on it, with great progress." He looks to the left before meeting your eyes again.

"He's what scared you into not sleeping.. Isn't he?" Fear asks studying your face.

You nod sadly. "He really scared me.. And I can't sleep without seeing the crazed look in his eyes..."

Fear hums to himself and hands you a tea cup. "Drink. It'll calm your mind. Its my favorite, I drink it to escape them." He chuckles a little.

You smile at that, taking the blue and gold tea cup in your hands. It was warm and smelled of mint. Just like he does.

Taking a sip of it, your body felt a warm wave go through it, making you feel drowsy.

Fear smiled to himself. "Rest well my dear. You'll need it." He cupped his hands and rested his skull on them.

In your sleepy state, you thought you saw his eyebrows turn into a second set of eyes.. Giving him four.

Something black and slender prevented you from falling out of the chair.

"Did.. Did you drug m-me...?" You mumbled, holding the side of your head.

Lavender eyes sparkled in delight. "Its for your own good, my dear."

Soon enough, the to began to spin and turn black.

"....hmm.. Improper manners.. You spilt the tea I worked so hard to make.. Foolish girl." He tsked, taking you into his arms.

He shook his head as he carried you out into the chilly hallways.

"Y/n...."

"Y/n!...."

You groan and roll on your side.

"Peaches!"

"Shortcake!"

You swat the hand away.

"Mouse!"

"....not so loud.. I have a headache.." You groan, sitting up slowly.

Cupid, Hallow and Coby stood in front of you, each, minus Coby since the shades concealed his eyes, gave you concerned looks.

You even saw Lockheart sitting on the white couch behind the group.. Wait.. White couch? Where the hell were you?

The room you were in was a light pastel purple, the carpet being a light grey, most of the furniture was white or black.

The room was lacking a bed.

"Where am I?" You ask, meeting  Asher's worried mismatched eyes.

"Umm. The guest room?" He lied with a shrug.

"Mouse, what are you doing in here?" Coby asks, grabbing your chin to check your face for injuries.

"I don't know, all I remember is drinking tea with..." You turned your head and saw Fear sitting on the love seat, one leg crossed over the other.

"With him! He drugged me!" You shout, point to the short stack in the corner of the room.

Cupid turned to glare at him. "Fear! Why in the world would you do that! That's messed up!"

Fear sighed and shut his book. "You all are rather annoying.. I didn't drug her. I gave her a sleep aid, you should be thanking me."

Lockheart stood with a hand on his hip. "You're f**ked up. All she needed was a nap! Not a two day coma!"

Fear put a hand on his chin. "I do admit that dose may have bit a bit much for someone such as herself."

Coby sat next to you and wrapped his arm around your shoulders. "Dude! You could have killed her! She's-s-s not your f**king lab rat!"

"And yet you call her 'mouse'." Fear smirks, narrowing his many eyes at the gorgon. "You possessive freak.."

"You son of a bi--"

"Enough!" Cupid yells, his eyes flashing scarlet to purple. "Everyone zip it! Fear that was horrible of you to drug her, why did you do it?"

Fear stood from his seat, arms crossed over his chest. "She was suffering from insomnia. I only solved the problem."

Without another word, Fear had left the room, shutting the double doors behind him.

Cupid faced palmed.

"Unbelievable!" Lockheart growls. "That stuck up a**hole thinks he can just use people for his test! I'm going to kick his short a**!" He runs out of the room, steam coming off his horns.

Asher rolls his eyes and sits on your right, his hand on your shoulder. "Are you gonna be alright lass?"

You nod. "I think so, I feel a bit better honestly.. Besides this headache.." You faintly laugh.

"Good. At least Fear didn't poison you or something.." Coby chuckles, resting his head on your shoulder, his snakes sniffed your face.

"Can we eat now?" You ask, trying to pull away from the touchy gorgon, your last encounter with him was already awkward.

"Oh! I'll go start on dinner! It'll be ready in ten!" Cupid claps his hands, smiling widely as he leaves the room with a skip in his step.

Hallow sends you a smile and follows after the giddy angel, hunger in his eyes.

Asher pats you on the back and leaves the room, leaving you with Coby.

Great.

"You sure you're gonna be alright mouse?" He asks, tucking a strand of your hair behind your ear.

You nod with a blush on your cheeks. "I-i'll be f-fine. T-thanks."

He smiles, silver tooth sparkled. "Great! Let's go eat!" He removes himself from you as he quickly runs out of the room, almost tripping over his own feet.

You shake your head with a smile, might as well wash up before dinner.

~Im glad to see that you're okay.~

You turned your head to look over your shoulder. Only to see nothing.

Funny...

You're probably not fully awake yet.. Yeah... That's it.

You quickly exit the room rushing for the bathroom for a shower.
