Papa Nightmare? [Nightkiller] [English Version]

CHAP 26

Killer's POV:

Several months have passed since Nightmare's argument with Dust and Horror.

My mind kept playing with me and I still couldn't get Crescent out of my head, at some moments I unconsciously moved my hand towards my belly and whispered "Everything is going to be okay my little one", when I realized what I was saying I always ran away and I would lock myself in my room, hours later Nightmare would come to the rescue and carry me out of the room no matter how many times I reproached him.

To think that the most 'feared' killer of the Bad Guys group had turned into this, a pitiful monster who couldn't stand up to even the weakest monster in the underground because he had problems with hallucinations, and here I was thinking that Dust was the only one who suffered from schizophrenia.

If Chara was still with me they would surely laugh at how pathetic I look and wouldn't stop until they made me feel miserable.

Nightmare has become even more overprotective than before, I can't even be alone for a single second when he suddenly appears to keep me company.

At first I hated that action but over time I got used to it, his presence became more pleasant and frequent, the mere fact of being by his side made me forget my problems and after a long time I was able to smile again.

I could see how detail-oriented Nightmare was, he always cared about me and never left me alone, even if it was just a little bit I felt loved...

I don't have to get excited, I know that he will never love me and I will go back to being a simple subordinate, I still don't understand why he clings to taking care of me if Science should have told him that everything was fine with me but he still makes sure to take me once a month to check my status.

Being taken care of just out of pity is something unfortunate but at least I was able to see a side of Nightmare that I didn't know about, to think that he is a lover of fantasy and romance books and I even discovered that sometimes he falls asleep standing up like a complete statue XD , I couldn't stop laughing when I found out, I'm sure Dust would kill for this information.

Time moves on and sometimes I wonder if our relationship is going to be the same after I go to live with Dust and Horror or will he just act like nothing ever happened and treat me like before, only the future will tell.

...

There's only a month left until I stop living in the castle, Nightmare has become more overprotective and paranoid, his presence is even more frequent and he won't even let me stay in the garden for more than 10 minutes, and that's starting to worry me.

...

There was only one week left, Nightmare forbade any of the bad guys from entering the castle that week, threatening to punish anyone who dared to disobey his order with a punishment worse than death, his behavior seriously started to scare me off.

Although...

Just maybe...

He just want to spend the time left alone with me?

Many embarrassing and strange things began to happen, or are they really strange? I really don't know how to say it...

We eat together...

W-we sleep together...

Despite how strange it sounded, one day he suddenly didn't dare to leave me alone in the room and stayed the night in my room, o-of course being separated obviously.

And the strangest thing of all...
