Unfresh

Well, I guess (Show) wasn't that bad... I can see why someone like (Name) would like it. Still, it's probably not something I would watch on my own.

When the current episode finished, (Name) usually pressed the next button before Netflix's auto play would enact, but she didn't. Turning to face her, I saw that she was sleeping peacefully, leaning back against the couch.

Well, that would explain it.

Grabbing the nearby remote, I turned off the TV before the next episode could play. I believe the paint-smell should be out of (Name)'s room by now, especially since I opened the window to assist in the drying process.

Although I could've used my magic to do so, I picked up (Name), holding her in my arms. Huh... I figured humans would be heavier than skeleton-kind, but still...

I have a feeling if (Best Friend) heard my train of thought she'd slap me...

Regardless, I was able to easily carry (Name) to her bed, making sure she was properly covered with the blankets. Making sure her phone was plugged in -it was at low battery-, I decided to teleport back to my place. I had sent a text to her, letting her know to simply text when she woke up and I'd be there to continue our arrangement.

I still have two more days of this, so I better try to get as much sleep as I can get.

I was quick to sit up in my bed as I tried to calm myself down, the memories of my recent dream still clouding my mind.

I say dream, but it would be more of a nightmare... Tears were still forming at the mere memory of it, and based on how wet my pillow is I've been crying for some time...

My shaky hands reached for my nearby phone which was plugged in. I don't remember doing so, but then again I don't remember how I even got to bed...

With my teary eyes I couldn't read any notifications, but I was able to open my texts and text the contact I had texted most recently. I was sure it was (Best Friend), so she should be able to help me...

Fresh

Radical! My newest set of tie-dye shirts are completed! Perhaps tomorrow I should-

Buzz. Buzz.

Looking over at my bed, I saw my phone light up, indicating I had a new notification. I was quick to pick the phone up, looking at the text.

It was from (Name). The grammar had a lot of errors, which said something was wrong. Even with texting she always used proper grammar; perhaps writing so often had something to do with that.

Regardless, I was able to pick up the basic message; that she had a nightmare and needed comfort.

It's almost two in the morning... Still, it'd be rude to leave her alone. I better go comfort her!

And with that, I teleported to (Name)'s place, hoping I could do whatever I could to comfort her.

Unfresh

Hm... It's already noon and I haven't heard anything from (Name) yet. I don't think she would call off the arrangement; and even if she did she would've contacted me.

I shouldn't, but I'm going to see if she's alright.

Teleporting to her house, I didn't hear anything. No TV, music, cooking, or even the sound of someone walking. Walking up to (Name)'s room, I was going to knock when I saw the door was slightly cracked.

It can't hurt to take a look; just to ensure she's alright...

...!

Why is Fresh and (Name) in bed together?!
