Chapter 20~We'll be counting stars
~Your P.O.V~
After a long day of messing around the not too familier mansion with Jeff,Reverse showed up to whisk me off to her bedroom,
"Let's move,little girl," She groaned from Jeff's doorway,"I'm tired and want to sleep,but I can't do that without you in the room," I got up,said goodbye to Jeff,and walked down the hallway towards Reverse's room,
As soon as we got there Reverse threw me some pj's and told me to get dressed in the bathroom,I quickly got dressed and came back to find Reverse already in bed,she was facing her magenta walls,away from me,it appeared she was asleep and so that's what I had figured.
I laid down in my make shift bed facing away from Reverse,as soon as I began to slowly drift off heard Reverse's voice,"I could kill you,y'know" I shivered slightly,
"If I wished it,your blood would be smeared across these walls,you wouldn't even be missed,sure Slenderp would be mad and Jeff furious,but after a few months everything would be back to normal,as if you were never here,"
I heard her shift under her bedcovers,
"But I won't,I like you,your...different then the others,I wouldn't hurt you,not for another while anyway,"
I left out a sigh of relief as Reverse continued talking,"Come with me,I want to show you something,"
She hopped out of her bed and I followed shortly after,I then followed her to her partically opened window,
As soon as we got out the window Reverse took me to the roof,dragging me all the way,
Soon enough we reached the top of the roof and she sat me down,she pointed to the stars,"I wanted to show you this,it's pretty,isn't it?" At this point Reverse had stopped acting like a child,she looked up at the night sky,the gorgeous constellations,the conversation the stars held between them,
I decided to do the same,
I looked up at the stars in awe,my mouth slightly open as I stared at the stars,my eyes widened,
Reverse looked at me and smiled,"The stars are in your eyes!" She giggled and returned to stargazing,
After awhile I became curios,"Do you do this often?" I questioned her,she looked back at me,"All the time actually,it's the only moment when I can let go,stop pretending to be all happy,I'm not a very happy person...but I don't like making people worry,"
"I suppose they call me Reverse for more then one reason," I turned to her with a quizzical look,"I can somewhat,reverse my emotions,then nobody knows and that leads to no one asking,"
"But...you always look so happy?"
"It's called an act,kid,"
Reverse's seemingly eternal smile had left,"It's not easy...everyone expects me to be some hardcore,killing machine...others just expect an childish,little kid,so that's what I became,there was and is no going back,and I know it,this happy act is going to have to go on forever,"
I looked at Reverse and pouted,"Stop being sad,"I exclaimed,"You downer!"
She began smiling again,"I have a question,"
"Shoot,"
"How did you get Toby to feel pain?"
I laughed a little,"Pure lemon juice," she looked confused,
"Well,lemon juice hurts when it's not in your blood stream right? I thought 'Hey,this'll be a fun experiment,' and then I did it,and it worked!"
Reverse and I began to burst out laughing,on the roof,just the two of us,
Counting Stars,
