I ate a cupcake and now I'm very energies. (I love purposely typing bad grammar) Also I'm sorry that chapter 9, 10, and 11 are Paintbrush's POV. Uh. That's it. My stomach hurts.

Lightbulb has been sticking around Paintbrush and always following them and asking for advice and such. Paintbrush seems slightly bothered by her sticking around them all the time but also enjoys the company.

Paintbrush's POV:

I help Lighty walk, her head still kinda dizzy.

"There we go!" I smile, taking my hands off a bow, feeling very happy witht he result. Lighty look up at the bow on her head, a light purple-blue. She smiles. "I love it! " She pokes at it. "It's the least I can do, especially since you braided my hair, it was very pretty. " I smile, she giggles and can't stop admiring the bow. It's tied around her welding job, the doctors had checked the crack and welded it back together, they said it would look weird for a while, but then it'll fade into the glass. She was clearly disturbed by her new look so I wanted to make her look better for herself, the bow covering some of the welding.

"Okay, step, you got it! " She's been lying in bed or sitting down somewhere almost the entire time after her doctor visit. I'm trying to keep her active.

It's been a week or two since we did out little arts and crafts hangout and she's been happier. I'm glad.

I make her run in place and walk from one side of the room to the other. "Paintbrush I can walk, this isn't gym class. Gosh I hated gym class.. " I sigh and look at her. "Yeah but you rotting on your butt eating chips isn't going to help you feel better either." She rolls her eyes and walks to the other side of the room again.

"Okay that's enough. I'm hungry" Lighty complains. "Me too. Okay fine we'll stop for today." She smiles and walks out, breaking into a skip and she passes the other rooms. I slowly follow her and go down the stairs with her. I walk over to OJ and ask "Is anyone making something to eat or do I have to make it myself?" OJ closes his eyes and pokes Paper. "Huh? Oh yeah you can just order something to eat. " "Okay" I shrug and go to the couch and take out my phone. Lightbulb follows me and watches me from behind the couch.

"Uh is Pizza fine?" I yell over the couch. "YEP!" OJ yells back. I order and then lay back on the couch. "Now we wait." Lightbulb frowns. "How long? " I look up at her. "For as long as it takes to make the pizza. " She grumbles and spins around to pass the time, slowly then a tiny bit faster. "Hey stop that, you'll throw up and then you won't want the pizza. "

Lightbulb smiles at me and continues to spin. I start to worry. "Slow down buster" I get up and watch her spin. She spins even faster. She's not graceful at all and she will fall. I grab her arms, stopping her in her tracks. "Woah- can I order 1 burrito supreme- wuh- huh?" She shakes her head, dizzy. "No you may not, I have ordered pizza." (N/A I'm resisting the urge to just make them kiss but it's too early in the story >:[ rah)

"What is up with you? " I look at her in the eyes and she just does her fake smile. I hate it when she keeps stuff from me.

A knock at the front desk tells me the pizza is here. I walk over and pay as OJ carries it into the lobby and calls "PIZZA IF ANYONE WANTS SOME! " Trophy peaks through the staircase. "Pizza?-" "OH YEAH DON'T MIND IF I DO!" Cheesy runs down the stairs knocking Trophy down. "Ow... You little twerp-" Trophy struggles to get up. I get the first slice and OJ thanks me. "Paintbrush paid for it so thank them." Trophy grabbed a slice and didn't look at me as he "thanks me" "Thanks tall bitch." I frown. "Thanks?" I mutter. "Your welcome." He says with a slice in his mouth as he picks up cheesy and leaves. "Okay enough of eating your family let's go." Cheesy doesn't laugh at that joke. I will never understand those two.

I return to the couch and turn on the TV. Lightbulb sits down beside me. "You know you don't have to stay with me, you can go hangout with Test tube (yes she does exsist here) or fan" She shakes her head. "I'm staying here. For the tv. " That's sweet. She's lying.

Wait. That's bad. Lying is bad but she's lying about the reason she's staying.

Just a friend.

More and more people gather in the lobby and start eating. "Besides, Fan is busy talking to jerk over there." Lightbulb kicks her feet and watches the show on TV. Or so I thought. More of, I was watching TV and she was watching me watch TV. I glance over at her to find her staring at me. Smiling. "Oh. Hi? What's wrong? " She stares. "Oh nothing tall fella." She looks back at the TV. I see her expression dim and she seems to toon into her surroundings. She seems to be focused on some certain thing.

"You good?" She suddenly vomits. Everyone turns to her. She falls off the couch and onto the floor

She violently throws up and coughs. "W- ARE YOU OKAY?" I rush over to her and help her off the floor. She looks up at me crying and whimpers when everyone starts to murmer. She gets up and runs out and upstairs to our room. I chase after her which causes more people to chatter.

Lightbulb is laying on my bed with a bucket in her hands. She's shivering. I sit beside her as she lays faced away from me. "You didn't answer me. Are you okay?" I can hear her crying and her trying to pretend she isn't. She does this a lot. I grab her sadly cut arms and shove her towards me. She tries to get me to let go. "Look at me, your not fine. I've known you long enough to know that. Tell me what's going on. I just want to help." I turn her around, facing me. Her face drenched with tears.

I lay against the bed frame, half sitting, half laying down and hug her. She hugs me back and sobs into my chest. "It's okay. You can talk to me. " She let's go and wipes her tears. "They were talking about me."

I look at her confused. "Who?" She sniffles, "Everyone. They all whispered my name and looked at me, and when it made me feel ill, I threw up and they all stared at me. I couldn't take it."

"Oh." She hugs me and I hug her back. "Oh Lighty I'm sure it was nothing, everyone loves you!" She seems to not believe me. We stay quiet for a while. I start to sway and sing to her. She's always stressed when she's awake, but never when she's asleep. She's (mostly) happier when she's sleeping.

"Shine little glow worn, glimmer glimmer, glow little glow worm, don't get dimmer" (Ninjago reference? Cole is my favorite) She looks at me with tired eyes. "You can sing?" I look away and just Pat her on the head. "Yeah- but don't expect to hear it often." God I hope she forgets this.

"Huh... " Her eyes flutter shut as she slowly drifts off to sleep. Now, I don't know what tempted her to say this or why she did but, she leaned on me, started to sleep but muttered,

"I love you Painty"



HUH???? I look down at her, she's sleeping now. I can't wake her up- but- WHY DID SHE SAY THAT??? I look at her awkwardly and just... I guess...

I do too!? I DON'T EVEN KNOW!!! I have no idea if that was her saying that or her sleepy side or something like that, but I'm going to find out.I just sit down beside her, shes still laying on me. Now she pulls me closer and snores. She's cure when she sleeps- NO. AH. I'm sorry lightbulb, but I just have to know!!

Last time I checked, Lightbulb keeps a diary.

NO PAINTY DON'T LOOK THROUGH LIGHT BULBS DIARY THAT'S HER PRIVATE STUF >:((( Anyways I don't really like this chapter, writing wise, it seems rushed ≧﹏≦ but yeah, I'm planning out the entire book as I'm writing the chapters so yeah. I'm also trying to update my other stories as well, trying not to make this my only focus. -Willow
