(Y/N)'s POV~

I walked up to another house, an [OPERATIVE]'s house, that is. Earlier, I had received a call earlier from Radiant. He asked if I could come over to this address and watch the person who was inside. Apparently, he couldn't because he had an unexpected shift he needed to attend. I'd accepted because I had absolutely nothing better to do, anyway.

I took a deep breath and knocked on the door. He never specified who it was I was watching, he just referred to them as "a friend". 

I waited there a while, I started to wonder if they were even here. I waited a few more minutes. I was turning around and about to walk away until I heard the door swing open. I turned around, and stared at the man.

"WHY YOU LEAVE? COME IN YES?!" He shouted.

The man had blonde hair and blue eyes, he wore a blue hat with long flaps on each side of his head, covering his ears. His uniform was the same design as the other [OPERATIVES], however, it was more cyan. He stared at me, waiting for an answer. 

"Sure, I guess-" 

Before I could finish, he grabbed my arm and pulled me inside of the house. It was a mess. He tugged me over to the TV and sat me down. I was hella confused, This guy is an [OPERATIVE]? I thought. He walked up the the TV and put on some show. I didn't know what it was, but I didn't say anything about it. 

"WE WATCH SHOW YES?" he asked.

"All right..?" I said uncertainly. 

He was wack, yes, but he was sort of intimidating at the same time. I feel like if I were to say the wrong thing, he'd grab a knife and stab me. He wasn't like Macabre, I'll say. He's a nicer version. However, I don't think that he would hesitate to hurt someone. 

"YOU HUNGRY?" he questioned.

"I-I guess?" I replied

"OKAY," he said, starting to stand up. "WAIT HERE."

As if I have anywhere else to go right now. I thought. I heard the ruffling of thin plastic bags and the thumping of the pots and pans on the counter or floor. He came back, a bag of white bread in his hand.

"LIKE BREAD YES?" he asked me. 

I cleared my throat. "Yes, I do like bread, but I'd kind of prefer something else with it."

He looked at me, as if he never heard of anything other than bread was food. "LIKE WHAT?" 

"Ham, Cheese, Pickles, you name it." I said. "Mind if I see what you have?"

"YES GO FRIDGE" he half-shouted excitedly.

I  slowly got up from the mess of the floor, careful not to trip over anything. I wondered how he could walk across this mess without stumbling over something. Though, he probably has practice. 

After finally trekking across the sea of trash, I walked into the kitchen. Luckily, it wasn't as dirty as every where else was. Though, the counters could use a bit of tidying up. I paused in front of the fridge, tugging on the handle to open it. There was nothing in the fridge. 

I looked back into the area in which the man was sitting. I looked back to the fridge, checking each of the shelves to see if perhaps there was some hidden food. There was nothing. I turned back to the man, closing the fridge door. "Uhm, sir, you have nothing in here." 

The man looked back, the smile on his face turning to a frown. "ME FORGOT TO GO SHOP. AM SORRY."

"Oh, uhm-" I carefully stepped back over to the man, walking to the door.

"WHERE YOU GO?" he shouted curiously.

"I'm going to head to the store."

"CAN ME COME WITH?"

I hesitated for a moment, hand on the door knob. I know I am supposed to be watching him, but he's a complete wreck. I can see how impulsive he is, imagine how much trouble he'd cause in a store. 

I sighed heavily, turning the knob and opening the door. "All right, fine. You can come with me."

The man quickly wobbled up from the floor and on to his feet, jogging over to me. I nodded, walking out of the door frame and starting to walk across the side walk. I looked behind me, the man following after. I kind of sighed in relief when he closed the door; less for me to do.

He ran up beside me, gripping my hand in his. I gazed at our hands rather curiously. I do not dare to unhinge them. I look away from them and focused my eyes on the path we were walking. If I remember correctly, to get to the store we needed to take a right, another right, and then a left to continue walking forward.

We walked in silence for most of the way. It was rather awkward and I could see the silence was affecting the young man as well. With that, I cleared my throat. "So, uhm- I never caught your name?"

His head whipped to me, the smile on his face returning when the conversation began. "ME UNSTABLE! YOU?"

Unstable, what a strange name. Though, why question it when all of the other [OPERATIVES] had wack names as well. However, I've noticed something. Their names corresponded with their personalities. Benevolent was very kind and caring, Radiant was energetic and joyful, Placid was calm and collected, and Unstable is; well- mentally unstable. 

I wonder, what are the other [OPERATIVES] like? I thought. Unstable's grip on my hand tightened. I looked back to him. I guess I had zoned out for a moment.

"WELL?"

"My name is (Y/N)."

"YOU HAVE VERY PRETTYFUL NAME."

I paused in my tracks, mouth slightly gaped. As for why I did this, I actually don't know. People tell me this all the time, but when it came from his mouth it just hit different. Maybe it was because he was out of his mind? He looked to me, rather confused at the sudden halt of my movement. I squeezed my eyes shut, shaking my head. I opened my eyes again and started walking again. Turns out, we were only a few feet away from the store's entrance. The look on Unstable's face was pure excitement. It was questionable, though, didn't he say he went shopping for himself?

He squeezed my hand tighter, charging into the building. I was tugged forward so fast that I fell to the floor. He stopped, looking down at me. 

"Ouch.." I muttered, slowly raising myself to my feet.

"ARE YOU OKAY?" he asked. I could hear the worry in his voice.

"Yes, I am, Unstable." I had assured him. I looked at my arm, a few drops of blood dripping down. "Just a few scratches. Nothing serious."

Unstable didn't believe me. He pulled me close to him, tears dripping from his eyes. "AM SO SORRY! ME NOT MEAN TO! PLEASE FORGIVE!"

My face heated up slightly. He was just like a child. I rested my hand on his head, the other on his back. My head rested on his, since he was shorter than I. "Listen, Unstable, it's all right. You didn't mean to, so it's fine." I whispered in a soft voice. I honestly felt the need to comfort him, as though I was a mother. I wonder for a moment, This is the same person I met at the house? How did his mood and attitude change so quickly?

My body stiffened when someone call out, "Awh, you both are so cute~!"

I pushed Unstable away and crossed my arms over my chest. "W-We aren't-" Before I could finish that sentence, Unstable was already latched onto my right arm, like a leech. 

"WE GO IN, YES?"

I sighed. "Yes, let's go."

Unstable's POV~

The store! I've never been here before. One of the [OPERATIVES] always went here for me, never giving me the chance to see this place. (Y/N) walked me around, showing me where everything was. And get this; There's more food other than bread! Can you believe it?

"Anyways," (Y/N) continued. "We need to stock up your fridge. Anything in particular you'd want?"

"ME WANT EVERYTHING!" I tell her. There's so much, I don't know what I should get; what I should try!

(Y/N) giggled softly, eyes softening. "We can't get everything this trip, but we could build things up over time."

I smile. She was pleasant to look at, pleasant to be with. I'm rather glad that Radiant had sent her to watch me. I honestly thought I was going to get another one of those boring baby-sitters to watch me. They treat me like an animal, almost no respect. At least (Y/N) sees me as a human. My own being. 

I tighten myself against her arm. I enjoy her warmth, her kindness. She makes me happy. "YES! WE DO THAT!"

(Y/N) continued walking over to this strange place in the store. It had lots of fridges and lots of different foods. Did the store own all of this? Was it stolen? How'd they get so much food? 

(Y/N) looked over the food thoughtfully, picking up packages of this stuff. Meat, was it? I think that's what it's called. "Unstable, turkey or ham?"

"BOTH!"

She nodded, putting the food in the cart. We continued walking across the store, filling our cart to the brim. We finally walked to this station place, a person behind it. I think this is a cashier? Maybe, probably. I help (Y/N) put the food on track and put it back into the cart when they were in the thin plastic bags. It took a bit, but eventually we fit everything back into the cart.

"All right, Unstable, let's go!" 

I nod, rushing out of the store and already jogging the side walk. (Y/N) comes sliding down the path on the side walk on the cart, like a skateboard. She laughs as she passes me, waving at me teasingly.

"HEY! NO FAIR! THAT CHEAT!" I call out, a bit of laughing following after.

We continue to run down the path, chasing after each other as the sun sets. I'm glad I met (Y/N). I don't ever want her to leave my side. 

I'm excited to try this "sandwich" thing when we get back!

Hey guys! Here's the chapter you've all been waiting for.
