An Early Morning

Thank the song above for inspiring the beginning of this chapter.

Pin's POV

Laying on the couch, I rubbed my eyes, looking at the analog clock across the room.
'4am...' I said quietly. I turned my head towards Needle and Teardrop.
They were sleeping silently, holding one another.
"Cute." I thought.
I looked at the floor, and Coiny laid there, holding the pillow close to his chest.
I stretched my legs out, and let myself wake up completely.
Suddenly, I heard something upstairs.
I looked down, she wasn't there.
Where's leafy?
I got off the couch quietly, and made my way up the stairs.
I heard a drawer close.
It was coming from her room.
I knocked on the door.
"Who's there?" She asked from inside the room.
"It's me, Pin! Can I come in?"
The door opened slowly.
"Sure.."
She opened the door the rest of the way.
I gasped at the sight I seen.
There she stood, with her hair, short. Not too short, a little past shoulder length.
She held a pair of scissors in her hands, and there was hair all over the floor.
"D-do you like it?" Leafy asked nervously.
"I...I do, but why?"
"I just...wanted something else for a change."
"Ok...but why are you already dressed? It's 4am."
"Oh..I like to get up early."
"You like to get up...Leafy when did you wake up?"
"3am."
"Leafy!"
"What?" Leafy smiled.
"You need to sleep!"
"Don't worry Pin! I go to bed early to wake up early...mostly." She chuckled. "Now, since you're up, do you want some breakfast?"
"I'll shower first, then I'll eat." I replied, and started to walk down the stairs.
"Haha ok!" Leafy said, and I heard her rummaging through her drawers again.

Leafy's POV

I put the scissors back in my drawer, and sighed, being happy with what I've done.
I was planning on going over to Firey's house and talking to him.
Coiny and I had a conversation about it.

•flashback time•

"Coiny, do you think Firey hates me?" I asked. I had finally calmed down,
"I don't think he hates you at all Leafs!"
I looked up at him.
"You really think that?"
"Yea! You know, you should talk to him about it, I'm sure he didn't mean anything he said to you!"
I smiled.
"You're right! I'll talk to him later then!"
I gave Coiny a big hug, and we stood there, silently.
"You feeling better leafy?" Coiny asked, tilting his head slightly.
"Yea! Thanks a bunch Coiny!" I beamed with happiness.
Coiny waved, and yawned.
"Go back to bed Coiny! I'll be down in a bit!"
He nodded, and walked down the stairs.
I looked in the mirror, and smiled.
If he really didn't mean what he said...
Then could he really potentially like me?
I laughed.
"Course he wouldn't."

Firey's POV

I laid in my bed, staring at my phone.
I felt upset.
I lost someone.
Someone I just realized I loved.
I felt myself crying again.
I haven't slept at all, its now 4am.
I have another stupid date with Puffball in a couple hours, at 2pm.
I don't even want to go.
Suddenly, my phone dinged.
"Who..could be texting me?"
I sniffled.
"I'm just a jerk."
Opening my messages, I sighed.
It was Puffball.
P -You're online on Instagram, don't pretend you're asleep. Answer me.

I felt anger boil up in me.
How was I so blind to her?

F -What do you want?
P - How dare you answer me like that! I am your girlfriend, you treat me like one!

She just used me.
All the warnings people gave me...

F - Treat me like your boyfriend then. Or you can forget about that date.

All the things they said..

P - You're just like how Fries was! I thought you were different!

How she was so dangerous, how she would use me, lead me into a toxic relationship...

F - You can talk to me when you're ready to apologize. I'm muting your messages.

They.....
They were all true.

I put my phone down on my nightstand.
"They were trying to help me..."
I sniffled.
"But I was blind to it all.."
I grabbed my pocket knife from my dresser, and stared at it.
"I bet they wouldn't even miss me..."
I stabbed it into the wall, so hard it got stuck. I couldn't pull it out.
"Not even Leafy..."
I started to cry again.
"Leafy..."
"How can I ever redeem myself to you?"
And then I remembered.
She lives next door.
"I should go and see her...."
I tried to get up, but I couldn't. My body wouldn't let me.
"No...she probably just hates me..."

Everyone hates me.

There's no way she would like me now..after how I've treated her.
