I couldn't sleep a wink that night. Fear was my worst enemy at this moment. Paranoia and confusion kept filling my head making it nearly impossible to close my eyes. I even made sure to have the light on all night. I was just so scared but the question is of what?

I started having these weird hallucinations ever since I started living here! I don't want to blame the situation on anything... I don't really like going to the hospital or doctors. Heck, I don't even know who my doctor even is ever since I moved. I'll probably buy some sleeping pills by the local pharmacy later today...

Right now I was just laying on my bed looking up at the ceiling. Yawning... wanting to sleep so badly. Looking over at my clock that was hanging on my wall. It was now 6:00... I could already hear that everyone was up. Maybe some coffee or tea can help me feel better?

Getting up, and walking over to my closet to pick out something to wear. I wince in pain the minute I even step out of my bed. I had completely forgot about the incident last night... Kind of wish I kept forgetting. I didn't hurt that bad but it was still kind of painful. I grabbed out a black long sleeve shirt, and dark blue jeans. Getting dressed and putting on my shoes.

Before I headed out into the kitchen I went straight into the bathroom to relief myself. After I was finished. I washed my hands in the sink. Looking in the mirror and saw I look like complete hell. I didn't look too bad, just for the fact I had massive eye bags. My nose was kind of bruised from the night before.

I splashed some water on my face before turning off the faucet. Drying my face and hands and leaving out the bathroom. I walked into the kitchen, yawning as a stretch my arms out. The delicious smell of breakfast hit my nostrils. Everyone looks over at me. Edd being the first to speak.

"Good morning, roomie! I made you breakfast! Sit down!" Edd pulls out a chair for me and sits me down. Placing a plate of food in front of me. It smelled amazing and made my mouth water. "Wow, thank you, Edd. It smells great." I thank him as he hugs me. "Of course! I can't have you thinking I'm a horrible roommate and want to leave me! Hehe. I'll be right back. Don't go anywhere!"

Edd left leaving me with the three amigos. "Hi.." I said in a monotone. "Hey. You look like shit- OW!" I could tell Matt had kicked his leg. "Heh, thanks for noticing. Just a lack of sleep. I stayed up last night watching horror movies." I lied under my tongue. They bought it thankfully.

"Heh, been there." Tord chuckles as everyone went back to eating. I noticed Tom was back. He was looking at me this whole time. I waved at him as he was playing with the strings on his hoodie. He waves back looking away. It was honestly kind of adorable. I started to find him kind of cute more than creepy these days. Just a little bit.

"So, Tom told me about what you spoke to him and Y/N about last night." Matt breaks the silence after he takes a bite of his cereal. I really don't feel like being brought into conflict this morning so I hope he doesn't bring anything else that might drag me in more. "THAT SON OF A-"

"I'm not pleased with what you've been saying but I can't say I'm surprised either. It has been nice enough to let you stay and you're still being an ass about it and about him. You have to be kidding me. I understand you're our guest but do you even realize how much of an annoying-"

Tord grips onto his face in annoyance. Lunging towards the gingered man and gripping onto his shirt collar. "WOULD YOU SHUT YOUR TRAP AND FUCKING LISTEN TO ME! Good Lord you just love the sound of your own voice don't you?"

I hold my head in pain from all the yelling. "Guys be quiet! Edd will hear you-"

"You are diverting the subject." Says looking down at the Norwegian man in anger. It was way too fuckin early for this. "See that's the thing with you, cuz I don't think I am. I hope you understand me perfectly clear when I call you all fucking freaks!" Tords slams his hand onto the table.

"I SAID SHUT UP, BOTH OF YOU!" I bring my fist down onto the table causing the dishes and silverware to shake. The three men taking back from my outburst, but all the color drained out of their face when they heard someone speak.

"....Y.../..N? What's going on?" Ed. came back into the dining room. Having a rather upset expression. "I- Edd, um sorry I was just...very tired-" I tried to come up with something but Matt already spoke for me. "Ah, no no! Don't fret, Edd! Sorry about that, we were just having a conversation about, breakfast! Tord hold some pretty strong views regarding cereal... But he was being a bit loud and it upsetted Y/N." Matt lied for me which I was thankful for... Tord really did went a bit too far calling them freaks. Edd has been really kind to us, sure he can be very creepy and do suspicious things once in awhile. But she gave me a place to stay before I was thrown out-

You know what they say, don't bite the hand that feeds you.

"Sorry if I worried you, Edd. I didn't get any sleep last night and I kind of snapped. I didn't mean to hit your dining table I apologize. Why don't you go watch the news or something. I promise I'll come out and watch it with you." I had gotten up and placed a hand on his shoulder. He still had a bit of a frown on his face but he obliged. Holding on to my hand not really wanting to let go. "I promise, I'll be there." I reassured him as he finally let go and walked away.

I sighed and turned back to the guys. Matt, grabbing a hold of toward harshly having a very pissed off grin. "R i g h t. What are we going to do with you. Y/N. Don't you leave anywhere." Matt says to me as he caught me ready to leave. "..damnit.." Matt takes a deep inhale than exhales out trying to calm himself. Matt had a little bit of anger himself but was good at composing it. Which is good I guess for him.

"So let's get things straight. How about we get to the bottom of why you feel the way you do." Matt says calmly letting go of him. I sit back down at the table and watch. Tom standing close me, playing with the strings on his hoodie once again. He didn't seem to like the conflict either. At least that was the vibe I was picking up.

"EVERYONE HERE IS A FUCKING WEIRDO! THE ONLY ONE HERE WHO'S NORMAL IS Y/N! BUT ALL OF YOU ARE FREAKING WEIRD! HE'S BEEN FREAKING ME OUT EVER SINCE I GOT HERE AND I'M HIS FRIEND, SURE. BUT I'M JUST RIGHT ABOUT THIS" Yelled Tord angrily.

My head was pounding. Light level 10 scale migraine pounding. "Tord, please keep it down." I asked again calmly. "Sorry! It's just... I know I'm right about him! And I KNOW you know too! I see the way he treats you and how he acts around you! How defensive he gets! How paranoid and weird! Something is wrong with him I know!"

Matt's eye twitches. "Well if you feel so strongly about it. Why don't you prove it you piece of shit." His response to which Tord ads on quickly. "Maybe I WILL! And then you'll quit acting like I'm the crazy one. Edd is- All of You are!"

"Tord, I'm not trying to be on anyone's side right now... But how exactly do you plan on going about that? Maybe he just is like that because he just is. So how exactly do you plan to prove it?" I asked, this making him place his hands on my shoulders. Our noses basically touching as he explains.

"All I need to do is ask him a couple of questions- can't take that much to get him to say something totally twisted! He's like a murderer or something I swear-- bet you he's one of those sick motherfuckers who'd kill a cat given the chance. Bet you he-"

"Tord! What the fuck! I understand having a weird feeling about someone but accusing them of being a murderer is twisted as fuck!" I yelled at him. Which makes him grip his strength tighter on my shoulder. "Don't give me that shit! Don't tell me you're really going to side with these weirdos over me!"

Matt pulls my chair back. Getting in Tords face, pointing his finger at him. "I've had enough of your goddamn bullshit, Tord! You're getting on my last fucking nerve. And leave Y/N OUT of this! She already doesn't want to take part in your bullshit so leave her alone. I'm like you she's grateful."

"Learn to take a joke! And unlike you she actually understands me! Just because you're stupid enough not to realize it doesn't mean we're not. So how about you leave HER out of your weirdness!"

"It's a sick "joke" to even be making in the first place!"

"Screw you!" Barked Tord back with a twisted grin. They continue to yell back and forth. Tom pushes me out of the kitchen in a way of saying "you better leave before things get worse." I nodded and leave out. Seeing Edd sitting on the couch alone. He looked kind of disturbed.

I sit down next to him. Kind of startling him. "Y/N...hey." He smiles gently. Scooting closer to me. He changed the channel to the news. Wrapping his big arms around me with his wide sleeve. It was honestly kind of comfortable.

He didn't seem to be this touchy with his other friends. I guess he just really likes my company, Maybe. Maybe it's his way of affection? Is it because I'm a girl or something? I wasn't really sure. He holds me tight... Maybe the yelling was kind of disturbing him. I reach my hand up to touch his hair.

I rubbed it gently. He seemed to have calmed down a bit. Based on this reaction I'm guessing. Maybe he has trauma of this? It's not common for people to seek out affection if they never received it a lot going up? That would also kind of explain the clinginess. How he gets worried about me leaving.

I couldn't even really pay attention to the news that was playing. He had me in a very tight embrace but it was comfortable at the same time. I felt so at ease and relax... For once I could actually feel myself drift into something.

.... Right now... I felt nice...

...like...I could...sleep..

....right h..e...r..e.

...r...i..g..h..t..

.....n...o..w..

"...Sleep tight...ℒ𝓸𝓿𝒆."
