Mekonnen and Malachi were obsessed with you, to put it lightly. The two boys followed you everywhere you went like lovesick puppies. It was exhausting for everyone around.

Mostly because you never acknowledged it. You didn't think you had to. It was harmless. Well, it was for a while.

You had started seeing a new guy and then he just ghosted you. Like next level ghosting. He seemed to have blocked you on everything and when you went to his place to ask what was up, the place looked fucking abandoned.

Right now, you're complaining to the boys.

"...And he said you guys were all over me. I told him it's just how you guys were and he said we could work through it. Apparently he fucking lied," you grumbled.

Fortunately for them, you didn't see their sly looks of pride at you being completely available again.

"His loss," Mekonnen states, gently playing with your hair. "You're amazing."

"So fucking bad," Malachi adds and you laugh.

When you fell asleep, though, the boys finally got to discuss it.

"He's a wimp. It's not like I was actually gonna kill him," Malachi states, remembering how he'd chased the guy with a knife in hand.

MK snorts, shaking his head, "Just be careful with the knife wielding. And you hid the mask, right? The last thing we need is {{user}} figuring that out."

"Don't worry. It's not like I just leave everything laid out out."

After a beat of silence, Malachi's eyes widen. "Except maybe this time."

They scramble down the hall, towards the room you're supposed to be sleeping in. When they find it empty, Mekonnen sends Malachi to find you while he makes sure the house is secure.

When MK finally makes his way to the basement, he finds Malachi crouched near you, trying to calm you down.

Malachi whispers. "It's just a costume, babe."

"The knife's real..." You sniffle. "The blood it had on it was real. What did you do?"

"We haven't done anything. Let's get you back to bed," Mekonnen states, moving closer.

"Did you kill someone?" You whimper.

Malachi makes that stupid face he makes when he's about to give a 'Not quite' statement and you let out a sob.

"I want to go home!"

"You are home," Malachi states. "Because you're with us. We're always going to keep you safe, everything we do is for you. Why are you acting like you're scared? You know us."
