Chapter Text
Months has passed since that day.
Guess what's today? The two just got divorced.
Guppy's parents were supportive of it when Ze and Guppy talked to them about how it just... Didn't work out. Except for Ze's father. His mother was okay with it. She was quite against the whole idea of arranging her son's marriage after all. Ze's father was NOT happy.
It had been hours of arguing and Ze just came back home. Tired. Exhausted. And he had lost most of his voice on arguing with his father. Guppy and his mother defended his side. Fortunately.
He just logged back on. He was so tired he didn't realize his face cam was on. He logged on while tapping his keyboard buttons sluggishly. Trying to navigate the house while nearly falling asleep.
"Whoa dude, you look fucking messed up." Regect said from behind him. Ze was so exhausted he didn't even have the energy left to be startled. "Been arguing with my dad for a while about the divorce. It was hours. Please leave me alone." Ze snapped back.
"Ze, go to sleep then. It's probably 9pm at yours. Go to sleep buddy." Regect suggested, or maybe commanded.
"Nah. I'm kinda lazy to." Ze yawned as the entity stared at him in confusion. "How the hell are you lazy to SLEEP, bro. That's— that's— nevermind. Go to sleep." Regect retorted.
"No. I don't want to. I wanna see Moe first." Ze moved upstairs only to be blocked by Regect. "She's already asleep. You should too. Now go. Log off. Sleep. You sound tired AND look tired." Regect scoffed. "And... How do you know how I look right now?" Ze asked.
"Your face cam is literally on, dipshit. See? You're so tired you can't function properly. Go. To. Sleep." Regect informed. "Or I'm climbing out of this computer and cuddling you to sleep." The entity threatened.
"Actually, I would love to if you cuddled me to sleep tonight." Ze took it as a challenge. And also a plea for what the entity suggested. It made Regect stop for a moment.
"Back up from your computer. Maybe brush your teeth or something? When you're back I'll be outside of this thing." Regect shrugged. So Ze got up to brush his teeth and change into his pajamas.
Regect shuffled and turned to finally get out of the screen. Being like this felt... Deeply comforting. And that's when Ze came back.
The entity laid down on his bed and stared at him. Ze stepped closer and got on aswell. Regect nestled his arm near his chest so Ze could properly hug him. They covered their body under the sheets.
Surprisingly, Regect slept first instead of Ze. He stared at the entity as Regect's mouth was slightly open. Gosh, Ze just really wanted to kiss him right there. He was fast asleep after all. You could practically pronounce him dead.
Ze caressed his invisible cheeks softly. It was weird to touch something you can't see. Regect's body was covered in fur? Feathers? He couldn't tell. It was as soft as an owl's feathers.
He held the entity close like that and he slowly closed his eyes. Placing a quick peck to Regect's lips as they both went to sleep. Peacefully. In each other's arms.
