At Least ONE Of These Had To Be In Our Verse We've Been Brainrotting Too Hard To NOT - Tumblr Posts

★ — ".... are you fucking serious?!"

A hissed whisper that slips out under his breath before Gregory can stop himself. He half expected it to set Michael off again, but the room remains eerily silent for the few seconds as the tension settles between them.

It feels like a slap in the face. Like Gregory can't breathe — like he's suddenly back in the mall where he was bit ( where this all began ) and his world is crumbling around him but he's expected to stand up and keep going like nothing is wrong. His feelings don't matter, what he wants doesn't matter, but he matters, he matters, he matters, this will all be worth something in the end and there is no choice.

"There's not a single person left who cares about me! You're all I fucking have!"

His voice raises to a shout, unable to keep the tremble out of it. Eyes are wide, filled with disbelief and hurt and glossy with the tears he refuses to let fall. He won't cry, he won't cry, not here, not in front of him, not right now. Instead, Gregory steps forward and shoves Michael as hard as he can manage. A small outlet for all the anger he feels bubbling beneath the surface.

"Don't you dare tell me I'd be safer with someone else, because we both know I'd just be more scared!"
