(One of my favourite ships,ngl. I really like girl x girl ships.)

(context: the match and pencil povs of the eraser x pen oneshot)

[TW: For still pen x pencil cause angst,yelling/arguing.]

[POV: Pencil]

I was looking around for pen,since I really missed him and such,then I noticed him walking to me. I called out to him "pen! There you are!"

"Hi pencil!" He replied,as I hugged him. I pulled away,still holding his hand.

"How have you been?" Pen asked cheerfully.

"Oh you know,just the usual..." I giggle a little.

We continued talking, but I couldn't help but feel...drawn to him in some way.

Not sure why! I decided to give him a small kiss on the cheek,before looking at him.

He was smiling and blushing...he liked it! 

I was ecstatic,until I saw eraser walk over and pull pen away,and match pull me away as well.

I was confused,and a little annoyed.

[POV: Match]

As I pulled pencil away from pen...that stupid boy,probably trying to take her away... I let her go,and look at her.

"Pence-pence! Why did you kiss his cheek???" I asked,annoyed

"Because I wanted to? Why do you have to patrol who I kiss?" She shot back.

"Because I have to make sure you're not falling for the wrong person!" I crossed my arms...though I said i Lie, I might as well use it.

"Pen isn't the wrong person! He's nice,and he's super cute." 

When she called him 'cute',she didn't realise how much it hurt me...and I just didn't know what to say except

"Well he IS the wrong person for you! There are so many other options that are better than him!"

"Really?! Then maybe you're the wrong friend for me!" She yelled back.

...wrong friend...

For her...

I felt tears water up in my eyes.

She noticed,and sighed "w-wait...match I didn't-"

I quickly ran off,hiding my face in my hands. Why would she say that? We were best friends...

[POV: Pencil]

I watched match run away,as I wanted to run after her,but my legs wouldn't move.

"M-match! Come back!" I called after her,but it was too late. She ran into the woods,and eventually my legs started moving so I ran after her.

"Match? Where are you?" I called out. I wasn't using her nickname as this wasn't the right time...

I heard some small sobs and sniffles from under a low hanging willow tree.

I brushed some of the leaves (or whatever the hell those vine looking things are) away as I saw her,with her knees to her chest,crying.

I felt really bad...I shouldn't have said that...stupid...

"Match?" I called out to her gently.

She looked at me,before her stare hardened and she turned away,drying the tears from her face. Her voice was still shaky "w-what do you want...? Sniffle"

"I...came to apologise..." I sat down next to her,but not too close,so she wouldn't be uncomfortable.

"T...that's a new one...do you really mean it?" Match asked,looking back at me.

"I do." I said. I meant it. I really did. I didn't want to hurt my friend...I cared about her a lot. I dried away the rest of her tears,as she hugged me. I held her as she hugged onto me. I didn't want to let go,and I don't think she did either.

"I'm sorry,pence-pence...I just got jealous of you and pen..." she mumbled into my shoulder.

That surprised me...sorta. She was jealous? Hm...maybe she wanted pen.

"Why? Do you like him,matchy-match?"

"No!" She pulled back 

"I like you!"

[POV: Match]

"I like you!"

I quickly realised what I said,as I felt my face heat up from embarrassment. I turned away,before pencil used a hand on my cheek to turn me back to her.

"Is...that true? You...like me?" She asked. Her touch was soft on my cheek. I put a hand on her hand,as I replied

"I do..." I was scared what she might say,before she smiled at me.

"Aw...I like you too..." she pulled me back into an embrace,as I held back tears of joy.

She liked me back...

She liked me back!

This was amazing...she...she really did...

I wrapped my arms around her,as we rested under the willow tree.
