- >You are Vinyl Scratch
- >7 years old
- >You are laying down in the bed next to your best friend in this world
- >Or only one to be precise
- >You've started elementary school some months ago
- >Since the accident you've been staying with Octavia and her family
- >They also sent both of you to the same school
- >You don't like it there
- >You and Octavia learned sign language, so you can "talk" to her
- >Kids here make fun of you
- >Not just because you cannot talk, but also because you can't stop your eyes from twitching
- >They even tried to hurt you once, but Octavia stood up to them
- >You smile and look at her sleeping form
- >She always takes care of you, protects you, comforts you when you are sad
- >When you have nightmares
- >She's like your big sister
- >You snuggle close to her and she instinctively wraps her arms around you
- >This feeling...
- >It's the best feeling in the world
- >You always want to be like this
- >Forever
- >Your eyes close as sleep takes you
- ----
- >The next morning
- >It's the Heart's Warming
- >Did you forget?
- >Octavia is gone, probably already downstairs
- >You get up and go after her
- >There is a big, heart-shaped decor in the living room with some presents under it
- >You go towards them and see one with your name on it
- >Taking the package, you carefully start to unwrap your present
- >You don't want to damage the wrapping
- >It takes a minute before you take it out of it's box
- >It's a pair of sunglasses with purple lenses
- >Seems quite big for you too but they are really pretty
- >Still, you have no idea what to do with them in winter time
- >"I thought you could use them to cover your eyes." You hear Octavia speak as if she knew what you were thinking
- >"I uh... I know you are really sad because of other kids and I thought maybe you would look cool in them and they wouldn't laugh at you anymore. Now you can make more friends!" You turn to her.
- >"The small ones weren't pretty so I got you a big one. You like it?"
- >You feel your eyes sting and a drop of tear runs down your cheek
- >"Oh no! You hated it." Octavia sits down in front of you and grabs your hand
- >"I- I'm so sorry, Vinyl. I didn't mean anything by it. I just thought maybe you..." She hesitates for a second. "I just don't want you to be sad anymore. It... It hurts so much."
- >Tears start running down on her face
- >Of course you liked it! You loved it!
- >She got it all wrong!
- >But you can't tell her that because she is not looking at you now. She's crying.
- >You put on the glasses and just hug her
- >She tenses for a few seconds before returning the hug and slowing her crying
- >You let her go and you sign her
- "They are beautiful. I love them. Thank you."
- >She sobs once more before laughing and tackling you to the ground with a hug
- >She's a little heavy but it's okay
- >Afterall, it's the best feeling in the world
