Your P.O.V. “But I don’t *waaaaannnnnt* to!” I whined. “You’re going, end of story!” Pet declared. “Bu—” I began, but she cut me off. “Zip! Don’t make me get the shovel!” Pet threatened, her voice sharp. “Jeez… you don’t gotta be like dat…” I mumbled, slipping on my shoes.

Pet pulled her sweater over her head and grabbed the cake she’d made. It looked…questionable.

We walked outside, Pet shutting the door behind us. We headed towards Travis’s house. *Irean, why?!*

Pet knocked. We waited a few seconds before the door swung open, revealing a guy with black hair obscuring one eye. He wore a mask and a dark sweater.

Pet smiled brightly. “Hi!” she said cheerfully. “Just come in and out of my face,” he replied bluntly.

“Ok…” Pet said, stepping inside with me.

I kept my head down, hoping to go unnoticed, but…no use. “Y/n! You actually came!” Travis called, putting his arm around me and ruffling my hair. I quickly shoved his hand away. What *was* his problem?

“Hi there! My name’s Aphmau!” A girl said from behind me. I turned around. She had beautiful raven hair and amber eyes.

“y/n…” I mumbled, barely audible. “Huh?” she asked. “Y/N!” I blurted, louder than I intended.

I glanced over my shoulder, seeing Pet trying to make the masked man smile. I stifled a laugh at her cheeks squishing.

“Sorry if I was rude,” I said bluntly to Aphmau, but…a flicker of feeling crept into my voice.

“It’s okay! Travis and Garroth told me you have really bad people skills.” Aphmau said, giving me a warm smile.

I raised an eyebrow. “Really? They told you.” I said bluntly.

She nodded. “Travis!” I yelled, equally blunt.

He turned to me, grinning. “Heyyyyy babbyyy~” he said, smirking. “Thank you. Where’s Garroth?” I asked, not really as a question. Travis pointed to him with a confused look. I walked over to him, “Thanks.” I said bluntly and sat on the couch.

I watched as Pet launched herself on top of the masked man, tickling him mercilessly. I chuckled. *Irean*, she was such a child.

The man started laughing hysterically, kicking and rolling. “MWAHAHAHA!” Pet yelled.

I walked over to them. “I finally got you to laugh and smile!” Pet said, beaming. “Y-yeah… you did… I’m surprised!” The man gasped.

“What are you doing to the poor guy?” I asked her bluntly.

“Hm? Oh Y/n! I’m trying to get him to smile! No one can NOT laugh when I tickle ‘em!” Pet said proudly.

“Mmhmmm… then explain why you’re still sitting on his stomach,” I asked.

“MAYBE I LIKE IT HERE!! JEEZ MOM!” Pet said with a sassy hair flip.

I laughed, trying to inject some emotion into it. “Oh my Irean, Pet.”

“Oh by the way, This is Zane! Zane this is Y/n!” Pet said, “Nice to meet you.” I said bluntly to him. "Yeah..sure.." he replied.

I rolled my eyes and walked away.

Pet’s P.O.V. “You can get off me now,” Zane said. “Nah! Your stomach is comfy! It feels like a marshmallow!” I said, laying on it now.

“No! Get off!” Zane whined. “Nah dude.” I replied, resting my head on his belly.

“Wow. Zane, she just moved here and you’re already forcing her to do stuff?” Garroth asked. “W-WHAT!? N-NO!” We both yelled.

“Okay… I see… you need to take things slow.” Garroth said, smirking and walking away backwards.

I jumped off Zane. “I’m gonna get my shovel for two reasons! I’ll be back!” I said, skipping out of the house.

Your P.O.V. “So… you know what we need to do for you?” Travis asked. I shook my head. “Voice lessons! You seem to have never talked as a child, so… you can’t talk right now! I figured it out, didn’t I?” Travis stated. I turned to him. “You’re an idiot.” I said bluntly, slapping his cheek.

“Owww!” He whined.

“I’m gonna play beat up Travis!” I heard a girl’s voice call out from behind me. I turned around seeing a girl with blue hair.

“I’m Katelyn, I’m sorry if Travis said something stupid!” Katelyn said. I was about to say something, but I saw Pet behind me with the shovel, she raised her eyes on me. So.. I chose my words wisely.

“He did, Orean he’s annoying!” I said.

He stared at me in shock. Pet dropped her shovel staring at me wide eyed.

I soon realized! I SPOKE NORMALLY!

My eyes widened.

“Wwhhaaaattt!?” I said, and it still had feeling!!

Pet ran to me and pulled me into a death hug. “AHHH!!!~ YOU DID IT!” she yelled. Everyone stopped talking and stared at us. “SHE CAN TALK!” Pet screamed.

Suddenly, a window smashed. I froze. “Well she shouldn’t be able to, I thought I’ve taught her enough lessons to talk the way she should.” I heard from the most horrible person in the universe. Greg.

I closed my eyes, clenched my fists.

“Do I have to teach you more?” Greg asked, spinning me around so I would look at him.

“No.” I said bluntly. “Ah, back to normal. Perfect.” He said.

He pushed me on the ground, the party just froze looking at us.

“H-hey!” Spoke up Travis. “This is breaking and entering!” A guy with blue hair shouted.

“So? I’m in jail anyway, isn’t that right? Y/n?” He said glaring at me.

“Y/n.. what is going on?!? PET??!? WHERE ARE YOU!???” Travis yelled. And before I knew it Greg was on the floor with Pets shovel beginning to being shoved down his throat. "..I told you..Greg..if you came back..THIS WOULD HAPPEN!!" Pet yelled in this demonic voice, his eyes widened,

"That's enough Pet, but thank you." Said a voice. Pet turned her head, "Oh hi Officer Fisher." Pet said in her normal voice, she got off of Greg and had her usual happy face.

And soon the police dragged Greg out.

The party just stared at me. I was still on the floor. Soon Travis helped me up, “you missy, have some explaining to do.” Travis said, “Great.” I said and frowned.

~~TIME SKIP~~

“THIS IS EXACTLY WHY I DIDNT WANT TO GO PET!!” I yelled at her when we were back home. “I’m sorry… I should’ve known better. I just thought maybe you’d be less blunt or quiet about things if you talked to new people!” Pet said with an apologetic smile.

I sighed. “I can’t stay mad at you forever. You’re just too damn weird! In a cute way.” I said.

“Awww~ thank you~” Pet said, hugging me tightly.

I will have to explain tomorrow… maybe I could just fake my death, get a new name? *Irean*, I’ll just pretend to be sick! Yes! Dammit, then Pet won’t go near me. I’ll think of something for now. I’m just gunna sleep in my new bed.
