Speechless (ErrInk)

What the fuck happened with 抖阴社区! I had a complete fucking chapter and 抖阴社区 was like...

抖阴社区: You know, it's good but I want to make some changes.

Me: Like what?

抖阴社区: We're going to cut off the entire last half and discard all the edits that you made.

Me: ...What?

Error's POV

  The sound of Ink's alarm woke me up. I groaned as I pushed myself, rubbing my face with my hands.

Me: Ink, can you turn that off please?

  Nothing happened, which was strange. Ink and I had the same classes for the morning and he was always up before me.

'He's probably sleeping through the alarm.'

I thought to myself while trying to up. When I looked at myself, I saw that Ink's blanket was keeping my body warm. Picking it up, I stared at the fabric.

Shaking my head to focus, I stood up from my bed to wake Ink up. However I saw that Ink's bed was vacant. This caused me to panic. Ink would never go anywhere without his phone.

Me: Ink?

I walked around the dorm room and looked in the bathrooms. He wasn't there. I felt my breathing become heavier. Running out of the dorm, I rushed to the other side of the hallway. I knocked on the door and waited for the person to open the door.

Me: Raj!

The door opened to show a very tanned human. He was shirtless and wearing a pair of shorts. It seemed he was previously sleeping.

Raj: What, Error?

Me: Ink is missing!

Raj: He's always near you, you can hear him. How could you lose him?

I glared at him. Raj facepalmed himself after he realized.

Raj: Right, Ink is mute, I'm sorry. Do you know where he might be?

I shook my head. Raj sighed before disappearing and reappearing with a shirt on.

Raj: I'll help.

He closed the door behind him. We began our search to find my best friend.

(Time Skip)

We searched all the possible stores that Ink could be in for about an hour. Eventually we went back to the dorm house. Raj gave up and headed to his room, leaving me alone.

'Where are you, Ink?'

Climbing up the stairs, I went to the roof of the building. As soon as I opened the door, I saw a motionless Ink. The worst thoughts went through my mind was I ran to him.

Me: Ink!

I kneeled as I lightly pushed him. Ink was shaking and there was the evidence of tears on his stained cheeks. His eyes fluttered open, giving me a sense of relief. He made eye contact with me as I pulled him into hug.

Me: I was scared that something could have happened to you. Raj and I searched the entire block for you.

I brushed my cheek against his as a greeting before releasing him from the hug.

Me: Why are you up here?

Ink broke eye contact and he raised his hands to began signing.

Ink: "I came up here last night to get some air and I closed my eyes for a few minutes but..."

He then gave me an awkward smile.

Ink: "I'm guessing I fell asleep."

Ink tightened his brown scarf and then stood up. I followed his actions.

Ink: "What time is it?"

Me: Almost eleven.

Ink: "We missed our classes."

I nodded, leading him to release a breath. We walked down the stairs after agreeing to get lunch together. We decided to get Alfredo which was one of Ink's favorite dishes.

(Time Skip)

Ink and I sat on the floor in the middle of our dorm room. We ate our food while reliving some of our old memories. I remembered when I had to learn a whole new language just to understand Ink's hand signs. Although, it wouldn't be the first time that I had to do that.

I was born in Argentina so my native tongue was Spanish. My parents moved us here to better job opportunities. I had to learn this country's entire language as well. Ink was born and raised in this country so he understood me when we were little.

I looked at the time with my phone and realized that it was almost time for my date with Martina. Standing up, I walked into my bathroom to get ready. When I was finished, I went to leave but stopped at the doorway.

Me: I have to go, Ink. Can you survive without me?

Ink gave me a thumbs up and waved with a smile. However as I walked out, I could have sworn that I saw a... tear roll down Ink's cheek.

(Time Skip)

I walked into the restaurant and began looking around for Martina. A wave across the room caught my attention. I saw a tanned woman with curly brown hair. A smiled appeared as I rushed over to her. She stood up and we grazed cheeks to greet each other.

Me: Wait, where are you from? This country doesn't do that.

Martina: Argentina.

Me: Really? No way! I'm from there too.

  We sat down and started speaking our language.

[Language: Spanish]

Martina: So where did you meet your friend? The short one with the brown scarf.

Me: Ink?

  She nodded.

Me: We met in grade school. He's mute so I had to learn how to sign just to talk to him.

Martina: That's really interesting. I've never met a mute person in real life. Maybe I can introduce myself to him this week.

  In my the back of my mind, I knew that Ink prefers to avoid meeting new people. However, I didn't want to disappoint Martina.

Me: ...

Ink would love to meet you
