Beyond The Sweater//re-write//TRIGGER WARNING

Chapter 6

Just when Xisuma was debating leaving, they saw Grian stir. He groaned and sat up.

"Ugh...what happened"? He asked in a very groggy voice.

Tango and X didn't really know how to start the conversation. They looked at each other in question. X nodded, signalling that he would lead the conversation.

"Um Grian...your arms."

Grian looked down to see them bandaged up, he froze in shock trying to think of an excuse.

"Care to explain?" X wasn't mad but he was being ferm, if he was too soft then it would be easier for Grian to get out of explaining.

"I-I...umm...Maui and Pearl got in a cat fight, y-yeah..that's right." He awkwardly laughed.

"Can you tell us the real reason please?" Tango chimed in, he would be lying if he said that he was fighting the urge to cry.

Grian burst into tears, it was way too much for him. Tango ran and pulled him into a hug, X joined as well. They muttered sweet nothings into his ears to help calm him down all while he kept apologising.

"G it's okay, you don't need to apologise." Tango wanted to do anything to help the poor man calm down.

Once Grian was calm enough, Tango took them away to watch a movie. It was clear that they weren't going to get an answer any time soon.

Tango led down on the couch with Grian on top of him. He kept him calm by running fingers through G's hair. Once X had put on the movie he sat down with the two and rubbed Grian's back. He hoped that the others wouldn't panic and blab about this to anyone else.

Cleo and Stress landed outside of Stresses base. They were both exhausted and overwhelmed.

Not too long after False landed and ran up to them.

"I know I said that I would go back to my base but.......this is all just too much."

"That's perfectly okay, False." Cleo answered back.

Stress just stayed quite the whole time. They were all dying to know what was wrong with Grian.

They debated telling Mumbo and Iskall but at the last second decided not to. This was something that was for Grian to tell to who he wanted.

Stress suggested that they do something to take their minds off of all that was happening, they went inside and spent the rest of the day baking before watching F.r.i.e.n.d.s on her couch.

They were about to fall asleep when they all had a ping from their communicators.
