My arms stretched above my head as I let out a yawn, I looked around the house, seeing Tallulah still fast asleep but no Quackity in the chair.
Did he really leave already? Bit of a bitch move, but okay. I rolled my eyes and got up from the ground, cracking my back.
It wasn't long until I noticed Tallulah start to wake up, she turned around to me and waved, sitting up with a smile, "Good morning, papa," She got out of her bed and hurried over to me, "Good morning, Lulah," I smiled back, rubbing her head.
"I have something to tell youu," She stared up at me slightly jumping on her feet, "Oh yeah? What is it?" I raised a brow as she motioned for me to go down to her, I crouched down to her level and she turned my head so she could whisper in my ear.
"If I tell you, you have to not be maddd..." She whispered.
"Okayy, I won't be?" I got just a little worried about that.
"Mr. Smilely man stood over me with a sworddd..." Tallulah muttered, moving away once she was done speaking.
"He what." I furrowed my brows at her, "You said you wouldn't be maddd," She pouted, staring up at me.
"He held a sword over you- that's not okay for people to do, Tallulah." I stood up straight and looked toward the door, "Come on. We're gonna go have a little talk with him." I glared at the door and grabbed my sword.
"Papa... how come you have a sword?" My daughter asked, following me out of the house.
"Because we're gonna have a little talk with Big Q." I grunted, gripping my sword.
'I fucking let that bitch into my home and he tries to kill my child?' I dragged my sword into the dirt making a trail behind me.
We made it to Quackitys house and I stomped up the stairs to his door, Tallulah followed behind me, seeming nervous.
I banged on the door and waited for it to open, but it never did. I sighed and banged harder until Quackity finally answered, "Whattt...-" He cracked the door open and looked up at me, cowering under my glare.
"Oh... H.. hey... Wil...-" He slowly closed the door a little more, being stopped by my foot, "Q. Look me in the damn eyes."
He tensed up and looked at me, nodding.
"I want you to stay the fuck away from me and my fucking daughter." I tried to open the door more, which he oddly allowed, "You're a fucking horrible person and I never. Ever. Want to fucking talk to you again."
Quackity... didn't say anything... his wings just folded around his body and he nodded, with tears welling up in his eyes.
"O...okay..." He choked out, his arm shaking, "Is... that it..." He was on the verge of tears...
"Yeah..." I muttered, trying to stay stern. Not letting his upset expression get to me.
"Okay... I'm... I'm so... sorry..." He started to shut the door and I removed my foot, making him slam the door in front of me. Tallulah grabbed onto my leg, I put my sword away and let out a sigh, placing my hand on top of her head, "Let's go home, Tallulah." I started to make my way away from the door and down the stairs when I heard a door slam open and choked out a sob.
Tallulah stopped to look back but I grabbed her hand, "Come on, it's not important." I forced her to follow me back but I could feel she was worried about it. We weren't even halfway home when I stopped, sighing.
"You want to go back and check on him." I glanced down at her and she nodded, "He didn't hurt meee..."
"But he tried to- that's attempted murder," I sighed, pinching my nose bridge.
"But... I like Mr. Smilely man... and he likes you too," She stared up at me with an upset expression. I just looked down at her, letting out a sigh, "Fine... we can go make sure he's... alright-"
Tallulah cheered and dragged me back to Quackitys house.
I started to get a bad feeling...
We stopped in front of his front door and Tallulah knocked on it...
There was no answer. I sighed and knocked a little louder as Tallulah looked through a window, she tugged on my sweater to get my attention, "Yes, nina?" I glanced at her and she pointed to the window.
I looked inside, seeing no one, just feathers covering the wooden floors. There was a side door that was wide open though... with feathers leading out of it, "I don't think he's home anymore..."
I stopped to think for a moment.
Remembering Tilins grave... "Come on." I grabbed her hand and headed for the stairs, "What? Papa, you said we could see if Mr. Smilely man's okayyyy..." She whined.
"We are-" I headed down the stairs, following a trail of gold-yellow feathers across the river, the sun started to set, turning the sky a mixture of red, orange, and yellow...
We got on the island and I let go of Tallulhs hand, "Wait here, please..." I looked down at her and she nodded, "I'll be right back." I made my way through the trees and felt my heart sink into my stomach.
Quackity was sitting on his knees in front of Tilins grave with a sword resting against his chest, his wings were shaking like crazy with feathers covering the ground around him.
I saw him tense more and try to force the sword through his chest.
"QUACKITY-" I rushed over to him and watched him flinch, falling back on the ground, and letting go of his iron sword.
I hurried over to him, falling down onto him, and trapping him between my arms and my body, keeping him to the ground.
He had a look of terror in his eyes, along with a lot of tears. I just stared at him and looked at the sword that was once pressed against his chest, it had the slightest amount of blood on the tip of the metal blade.
"...Q...-" I mumbled, looking back at him, and watching him wince at the sound of my voice, "Why...?" I furrowed my brows and slowly shook my head. His wings folded around his body, still shaking.
I moved my hands to his arms and pulled him into a hug.
I felt his body tense and then relaxed in my touch, I heard him let out a sob... and then another, and before I knew it he broke down, crying into my chest. He hugged me back and I rubbed his back.
I'm still mad at him...
It's just... I don't want him to leave... this world wouldn't be the same without him...
It wouldn't feel complete without him.
I sighed and held him closer to me.
I shouldn't have said that to him... maybe if I hadn't done that he probably wouldn't have done this. Or he would have... I'll never know.
"I'm sorry..." Quackity mumbled, choking out a sob. His tone of voice broke me, it felt like my heart broke...
"I'm so sorry..." He gripped my back, sobbing into my chest more. I held him closer and petted his head, trying to calm him down the best I could.
"It's..." I paused, taking a deep breath, "It's going to be okay..."
I pulled him up from the ground and took him over to Tallulah who had a look of concern, "Is Mr. Smilely man okay...?" She asked, following behind us.
"Yes, he's okay..." I wrapped an arm around her as well and went back home.
I tucked Tallulah into bed and went over to Quackity who was sitting in the corner of the room, practically hiding from me. I sighed, sliding down the wall to sit next to him. "Why did you stop me..." Quackity muttered, holding onto his legs, "You were going to kill me anyway... so why stop me from not having to get your hands dirty..." He gave me the side-eye and I had to think for a second.
"Because..." I looked down at the cherry wood floors and leaned my head back on the wall, "No matter how mad I might be with you... I don't think this world would be worth living without you..." I looked back at him and softly smiled, "Plus... at the end of the day... I still have her."
Q slightly nodded and looked down at the floor, "You're a better person than me..." He mumbled.
I nodded and pulled him closer to me, resting his head on my shoulder, "I know... that's why I'll allow you in my home... only if you promise to keep Tallulah safe." I stared down at him and he stared back at me, a small smile forming on his face as he nodded.
"I promise..." He paused for a moment and rested his eyes, leaning on me more.
"I'll protect her as if she were my own..."
