A pop of color. (Special)

At last, here is our rainbow bean. He won with seven votes!

I apologize for the wait.

He is NOT another Cupid copy, he was made with no plan at all, just made with a random oc generator.

He was just supposed to be a drawing to break my art block. And...I grew attached to him.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy him. Remember, I love you all.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Needless to say, your life was boring. You worked at a small donut joint, just trying to get by with your rent, and the various other things you needed.

Everyday you always saw the same customers, a couple collage students running in to grab a quick breakfast.

Or even the occasional monster or two, stopping by to try out 'human food' for the first time.

It was fun at first. But working the same job for a year and a half got rather boring quickly.

Business wasn't all that great either. The donuts and coffee were great! And your boss was a sweet woman. But the only time you got any customers at all was at the crack of dawn.

Or in the middle of the night before closing time, when chill dudes with the munchies needed something to eat real quick. One tall orange hoodie clad skeleton popped in from time to time at weird hours.

He was one of the very few monsters you encountered.

Until today.

You leaned against the counter, flour on your apron, a few stray sprinkles in your loose ponytail.

It was a slow day today, it was just passed four thirty in the afternoon. Not that many people stepped in until later.

So, when the little bell above the door rang, you bet it caught your attention.

"Hi, welcome to Go-nuts! Where you get your-" Your eyes burned slightly at the bright neon rainbow that had waltzed into the shop.

They were another skeleton monster? But this one was much more cartoony. They smiled at you sweetly, revealing their braces.

Maybe they were younger?

They were short, and slightly curved at the waist. They wore frayed jean shorts. Small chains at their hips with sparkly, multicolored hearts dangling from them.

They wore mismatched knee high socks. One sock was bright yellow, with rainbow smiley faces. A red converse on their left foot.

The other sock was rainbow stripped with glitter. A purple converse on their right foot.

They wore a black short sleeved crop top, with a big smiley face smacked straight in the center of it. Under the crop top was a long sleeved rainbow stripped shirt.

Around their waist was a green and hot oink checkered belt with a neon yellow star buckle.

And lastly, they had sparkly rainbow star charms wrapped around their mismatched horns.

Their tail bounced behind them, it was pink with a star at the end of it. They hopped up to the counter, a wide smile on their face.

"Hey there! I've actually never been in here before, but I've been dying to try some of your donuts!" Their voice was cute, high pitched with a slight accent you couldn't place.

"Wow.. You really are a sight for sore eyes." You mutter.

Their eyes widen, and a yellow blush burns on their cheeks. Their right pupil changed to a butterfly, while the other changed to an upsidedown triangle.

"Oh god, that was inappropriate I'm sorry! I've just never seen anyone with such.. Adorable fashion like yours.. And i-" You shake your head. "Ahem.. Um what can I get you?"

They stared at you with wide eyes for a split second, before their eyes flickered back to their usual colors.

Left eye a sunny shade of yellow with its usual  smiley face pupil. While the right changed back to its warm orange with a star pupil.

Did.. Did their eyes change with their mood? That was certainly something you didn't see everyday.

"Don't be! I'm used to the weird stares and comments! But they never get me down! Thanks!" They wink.

This skeleton was going to be death of you, they were literally the kidcore aesthetic born into a being.

"So, what can I get you?" You ask then again, holding your notepad in your hands.

They rest their hand on their chin in thought, looking over the display case. "Four sprinkled donuts please! Ooooh! And I want some of the Halloween ones too! Soooo pretty!" They beam.

You smile at their excitement. "Sure thing, I'll get that for you um.." You didn't want to assume their gender.. But you really needed their name.

"Oh! Oooopsy! My name is Peach~! And its he/them." He smiles, cute dull fangs gleaming in the sunlight from the window.

"Thank you Peach. Now let me get your donuts for you." You return the smile, before getting a bag ready, and a set of tongs.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Since that day, Peach had stopped by everyday at roughly the same time. He jogged to the shop every time.

The little skeleton must have a lot of energy to burn, if his clothing is anything like his personality.

You and him started talking more the more and more he visited you at work.

He had just moved here a month ago. And was still new to the area. And he had stopped into the donut shop while giving himself a small tour of the city.

He had a massive sweet tooth. And a very high metabolism. He would burn through the donuts you gave him before ordering more.

He was sweet, and listened to you whenever you needed to vent. All without breaking eye contact.

That was another thing, his eyes would change depending on his mood. You've never once seen him without a frown.

And, everyday he would change the charms hanging from his horns. And his cheeks would be littered with sparkly rainbow stickers. He even gave you one, he claimed it was a symbol of your friendship.

And he never gave those stickers to anyone else. Unless he liked them.

"What's the unicorn sticker mean?" You remember asking him.

His eyes lit up with green and pink hearts. "It means you're my bestie~!"

You smile fondly at the memory.

Today, was another slow day, mostly since you had just one hour left of your shift. It just felt like the minute's ticked by ungodly slowly.

Luckily, you had Peach to keep you company once again. It had been almost five months ago since he first stepped inside the donut shop. Yet it only felt like yesterday.

He sat at one of the booth tables, alone while munching on a sprinkled donut, and drawing in a sketch book he had brought with him.

He was the artsy type. He even made you a couple friendship bracelets. All of them being a blinding neon rainbow with hearts, stars and flower charms.

You never took them off, and he adored you for that. You never thought his grin could get any wider when he saw you wearing them.

But, you were snapped out of your small trance, when a figure blocked your view of the small skeleton. Of course, you put on your most fake smile and grinned up at the man with a nasty look in his eye.

He seemed to be a man a decade or two older than you, he had his calloused hands on your clean counter and a frown on his face.

"Are you done being in dream land? Are you going to get off your ass and get me a damn chocolate donut?" He asks, narrowing his eyes down at you.

"I'm sorry sir. I must have spaced out.." You reply shakily, you can feel eyes burning holes through the man and into you.

"Pfft yeah. 'Spaced out'... Just get my order girly. I'm sure they don't pay you to stare at the clouds." He grunts.

You let out a sigh. "So.. A chocolate donut.. Anything else?"

"Yeah.. Make that a dozen chocolate donuts. And make it snappy, I don't have all day." He spat, brown eyes glaring daggers into you.

As you turn your back to him to get a bag for his order, you hear a pencil snap. You decide to ignore it, to try and get the mans order done as soon as possible so he can leave.

"I'm sorry to interrupt.. But I couldn't help but overhear you spatting nothing but utter nonsense to my dear friend here." You grab the tongs to get  the donuts the man wanted, but you winced at the venom in Peach's voice.

"Look, I don't need to take shit from a monster. Are you upset I got cocky with your girlfriend? The dumb bitch needs to do her job and not stare at the wall like a f*cking dumbass." The man huffs, and crosses his arms, eyes full of agitation as he stares down at the small skeleton.

Peach crossed his arms, tail whipping angrily behind him now, he began to tap his right foot as well. "And I don't need to take shit from a sad lowlife who lives in the gutter."

The man frowns. "You little shit, listen here-"

Peach narrows his eyes and he quickly grabs the man by the collar and yanks him to his level.

"No, you listen to me you grouchy, greasy, sleazy, sack of dog shit! If you raise your voice at her again I will not hesitate to splatter your brain matter across that f*cking wall. So, kindly, go back to that shithole you call a home and take your f*cking donuts before I shove them down your throat!" Peach hisses, eyes burning a warning shade of yellow.

You meekly set the bag of donuts on the counter.

He man recoils and pulls away from the skeleton's reach before grabbing the bag and quickly running out the door without another word out.

Your eyes linger on the door, before you stare down at your best friend in shock.

Peach stands there with his arms crossed. His shoulders tense, tail still whipping up behind him.

"Peach..?" You whisper, still caught of guard from he hostile behavior. You kept your voice low, as to not anger him.

He quickly turns to you at the sound of your voice. A bright smile on his face. "You shouldn't have to deal with scum like that, y/n."

He looked as if he didn't just threaten a mans life. And his eyes were back to normal, they actually seemed brighter upon locking with yours.

"Peach.. I-"

"You don't have to say anything, y/n. Just know I'll do anything for my best friend! Now, I'll see you tomorrow! I've got to get to the crafting store before they close!"

The rainbow clad skeleton sends you a quick wave before grabbing his sketchbook and pencils, and skipping out the door.

You watched him leave, calming down from your shock. For all the months you've known him, he had never been hostile.

You worriedly fiddled with your friendship bracelet. "...I hope this doesn't happen again. I had no idea Peach had such a temper."


End...? I hope you enjoyed~!

Now the other two skeles are tied. So, who do you want to see next? Circus boy, or flower boy?
