1st P.O.V
I backed up into the table, trying to get away from Badgy, his eyes glowing green and red. He lifted his tube over his head and tried to swing it down on me. I jumped to the side of him, where he couldn't reach me, and I ran out of the room. The power plant's neon lights glowed into my eyes, but I still ran. The orange hallway slowly starting to come closer to my view as I ran inside it, ducking for a hiding spot. The bench was the closest thing I could find, so I hid to the side of it. Looking back, I must have looked like the dumbest person alive. He turned his head towards me and speed-walked over. Badgy crouched down to me and grabbed my chin with his hand. He smiled, green blood coating the bottoms of his teeth. I fell onto my back and he got close. Our faces were nearly touching when he touched my cheek, staring into my noninfected eyes. His eyes glowed back in return. His voice glitched and distorted and he could barely talk. It was honestly a bit sad. I lifted my arms and hugged his shoulders gently. If I was gonna die at least I would die by him. Then we would at least be together. He lifted his tube over his head again and smacked my neck with it, causing a snapping sound, and then everything went black.
I woke up sweating, whilst gripping the blankets. My (F/C) eyes glowed in the darkness of my room. I got up on my knees and stepped out of bed. I walked down the hallway of the house down to the bathroom. Tears rolled down my face as I recalled the night I had gotten infected. I was sent back into the lab by one of my colleagues to get the "cure" and they locked me in as a prank. I walked around and eventually found Badgy. He trapped me and infected me. My feet gently tapped the red hallway carpet as I stared down, still trying to recover from the horrible nightmare that I had just experienced. Suddenly, without me knowing, the door to my left opened, and Badgy stepped out to tap me on the shoulder. I squeaked and jumped, feeling terrified. Oh, yea. I forgot to mention something. Badgy and I live together. That's not good for my nightmares, but I don't have anywhere else to go. We've been trying to stop the infection, as in, trying to find a cure. I don't like it, and he just went along with it one day. He still scares me, even though I know he's not a threat to me anymore. Just, whenever I look into his eyes, I panic. I knocked into the wall, hitting a small painting off it.
"Ow..." I quietly whispered, rubbing my arm. Badgy got the painting and put it pack on the wall. He tried to look at my arm, but I pulled away, still crying. I tried to run down the hallway, but he grabbed my wrist and pulled me back. Badgy pushed me against the wall and looked into my (F/C) glowing eyes. The lab coat that I accidentally fell asleep in was being drafted by an air duct, making a flapping sound.
"(Y/N)...What's wrong with you lately..?" Badgy asked, keeping his hands on my shoulders. I cried more, but I didn't know why. He isn't going to hurt me. He likes me. We're amazing friends. He would never. It's just a bad dream made by my silly imagination. No matter how hard I tried to convince myself that it was just a bad dream. My mind kept reminding me that it was a memory. A memory that would never leave me. I stood there and sobbed, like a child that had just wandered into their parent's room because of a "monster". He kept asking what was wrong with me and soon, it all just spilled out. I explained everything. Every nightmare, memory, or somewhere in between. He let go of my shoulders, backing up to give me space. I turned and ran off to my room the first second he let go of me. Slamming my door, I flopped on the bed, letting my tears push into the covers. I curled into a little ball, crying even more. Wrapping the blankets around me, I tried to fall back asleep, and eventually, it worked. I fell asleep, and I awoke to the morning sun shining in my eyes. I tried to get up, but I felt something around my waist. I turned around, to see Badgy, fast asleep, with his arms around my waist tightly. I took a minute to think of the last night's events. I remembered everything. Me being scared, him trying to find out what happened, and me running off. I sighed and poofed my head onto the pillow, realizing now that I was trapped until he woke up. And Minitoon knows I'm not waking him up. I closed my eyes again and hugged the blanket tighter.
"Are you going back to sleep? We have to work on the cure, (Y/N), come on..." Badgy said as he shook me. My eyes shot back open and I stepped out of bed, the grip on my waist loosening. I nodded as he walked out. Soon enough, we both got some protective gear on, and then we walked down to the basement, which is where we keep all of our potion supplies. He went first, and I went second. I sat down on a rolling stool and I looked at the work I had nearly finished yesterday. I slightly sighed and I continued to work. Testing out new formulas, mixing potions, and checking old potions for flaws. Soon enough, we both finished all of the work for today, and as I was about to walk up the stairs, Badgy grabbed my hand. I turned around, a little worried, but then I calmed down.
"(Y/N), about last night...Did I scare you that much...I wasn't in control of myself all those months ago.." He said, getting quieter with every word. He took off my safety glasses and looked at my (F/C) eyes for a few seconds. I grabbed onto the sides of his shirt and pulled him into me, trying to get a hug. He seemed a little taken aback, but he got into it. He hugged me, letting me rest my head on his shoulder. He turned and slid himself against a wall so that we both would be sitting on the floor. I wrapped my arms around his neck, letting my legs feel the cold concrete floor. He didn't quite scare me anymore. Now he just seemed like a nice guy. I eventually dozed off on his shoulder, not having gotten much sleep last night. I woke up a few hours later, to Badgy placing me on his bed gently. He put the blankets over me and crouched down to the side of the bed.
"Hi (Y/N), did you have any bad dreams?" He said, moving the hair out of my face. I shook my head gently.
"No...And I don't think I will again with you here.." I said, sitting up and kissing him on the head. His green and red eyes shone with happiness as I pulled away. He smiled and kissed me on the cheek.
