Turns out Katelyn was wrong about the snow, huh? Oh my Irene, what have my intros become...

Y/N's POV

I walked in and was greeted by silence. I was secretly hoping Aph was home so I could talk to her about.. It.

"Aph? Aphmau! You home?" I called up the stairs. I heard some muffled sounds, so I knew she was up there. "I'm coming up!"

I walked up the stairs and slowly opened her door. And I was greeted with a scene I never expected to see. Aphmau and Zane were sitting on the floor with a tea set and a bunch of My Little Horsie figurines. I wasn't totally surprised by the ponies, but the fact that Zane was there, and..

"Zane? Your wearing a dress..?" He had on a purple dress, and was trying to avoid my curious look. "Aph, I didn't know you guys hung out, since when?" Aphmau glanced from Zane to me, and responded.

"I force him to play horsies with me. He doesn't play with them in his spare time or anything. And I forced him to wear that dress, too. If you're going to a tea party, you have to wear a dress." She talked quickly, tripping over her own words. She was probably just nervous because I found her in here with Zane alone. But I know Aph. She's not into relationships.

"Oh, and look outside! I need to get to the store before it gets too snowy on the roads. Just let yourself out, Zane." She called as she flew out of the room. She seemed nervous, but who could blame her? The snow just kept getting worse.

And then I remembered Zane was on the floor in a dress. I snickered, "Zane, you can go change out of that. I'll just be downstairs if you wanna say bye when you go." I snuck one last look at him, and left. He closed the door behind me.

Zane's POV

I could see Y/N smiling behind her hand as she told me to change. I was more than relieved to oblige; my princess dress is only for me to wear, and Aphmau to see.

I slipped out of it and threw on my regular clothes. I didn't want to face Y/N again, not after the whole.. incident.. with the cuffs. So I snuck downstairs-

And proceeded to trip and fall down the stairs like a dork. "Ow," I moaned as I tried to get up. Nice going, Zane.

"Oh my Irene, are you okay?!" Y/N ran over and helped me up.

"I'm fine, just let go, okay?" I jerked away. I just needed to get home and get an ice pack for my elbows; I landed on them pretty hard.

I sulked to the front door, only to stop short. I stared at the scene before me in panic. "No. No, this can't be happening. No!" I ran my fingers through my hair, trying to calculate if I could get home with so much snow out there. "It's not possible.."

"Zane, what's going on? Oh.." she looked out the front wonder and saw all the snow. It was halfway up the door already! "Zane! I see something out in the snow! It's moving! We need to save whoever that is!" She sprung into action, throwing on her coat and snow boots.

"Wait, Y/N! It's too dangerous, just let them be. If they die out there, it's their fault for going out at a time like this." She stared at me like I didn't have a soul- or a brain.

"We have to help them. It's the only option."

Y/N's POV

I managed to get out the door without getting too much snow in the house. I stomped through the snow, looking for the person I saw in the window. It was so much harder to see outside because it was still snowing, and blinding me.

I tripped, and found that I had tripped on a bit of white. But it wasn't snow.. "What the.." I bent over and ran my hand over the wierd white stuff. It was soft, almost like.. "Travis! Travis, I'll save you!"

I dug into the snow with my bare fingers, not caring about the cold. I may not have known Travis very long, but I needed to save his white-haired head.

Finally, I got him out enough that I could pull him out the rest of the way. He was unconscious, but still shivering, so I knew he wasn't dead. He was actually lighter than I thought he would be, but it's still hard to carry a human being around in a snowstorm.

I dragged him through the snow, hopefully towards the house, because I couldn't see anything beyond 5 feet. I finally felt something against my back, and found I had run right into the door- or at least, the wall above the door. I had to dig out the door a little so we could slide through the top.

I knocked on the door and Zane opened it. I made it inside, and started to help Travis, but because the hole we made was so high up, he just fell through, landing on me in a pile of snow and limbs.

And then- perfect timing- Travis woke up. "Hey Y/N. Why am I in your house? And why am I on you? Not that I mind being this close.." he smirked, but before I could get any redder, he curled up in a ball and started shivering. "C-can we save this for later? I'm f-freezing over here. What happened? L-last I remember I was walking back home.."

Travis' POV

Y/N made some hot cocoa for us while Zane stared daggers at me. When it was done, she sat down and told me what was up. "Okay, so that explains it then. Well then, I guess we're stuck here until the storm passes. But that's alright by me.." I smiled and put my arm around Y/N, but stopped short. "Hey guys? Where is everybody also? Are they okay?"

"Katelyn, Dante, Laurance, and Garroth are over at your house, Aaron and Lucinda are probably at their houses, Aphmau is probably stuck at the store, but I don't know where KC is. She said she was coming here.." Y/N got nervous, worrying about KC's missing-ness. I guess.

"I'll text her," Zane pulled out his phone.

"Why do you have her number? I mean, I have everybody's number on Mystreet, but you're... Zane. And antisocial." I raised my eyebrow suspiciously.

He looked around nervously, and sighed, realizing he was caught. "She's really good at baking, and I text her for advice sometimes. Texting now." He was turning pink, and I just grinned. Blackmail for another time.

"Irene, why? No signal. The snow must be messing with it somehow.." Zane shook his head, and I turned to comfort Y/N, who would probably panic thinking about KC lost in the snow. She was shivering just as hard as I was when we came out of the snow, if not harder.

I put my arms around her. "Hey baby, why you shiverin' so hard? You weren't out there as long as I was." She carefully moved out of my arms and turned to me, nervous.

"I- I didn't want to say anything, but I guess you guys need to know.. Just promise you won't tell the others, okay? I have this- thing- where I get cold very quickly and easily.. Its a genetic thing, apparently. Don't get me wrong, I play in the snow all the time, it just takes me a lot longer to warm up."

I moved closer to her. "Don't worry, baby, I'll keep you warm." I put my arms back around her, and her shivering wasn't as violent. I smiled, and she blushed. It was adorable.

And then she smiled, and said, "Thanks Travis, but somebody else offered first," she smirked as a jumped a little. Somebody was using my moves on her- before me.

"W- Who?" I kept my cool, and tried to get the details. Maybe it was a loving, caring brother...?

"Oh, no one. Just Laurance." My eyes grew huge. Laurance? Did he have the guts to do something like that? "Yeah, he took me on a date, and kept me warm earlier when we came in from the snow." She grinned like crazy, and then broke out laughing. I looked over at Zane, who had been standing by the stairs, watching this play out.

He looked confused by Y/N too, but also furious at me. He usually was; he doesn't like the moves I make on Aph.

I turned back to Y/N, who was wiping tears from her eyes. "What's so funny?"

"Y- You were crushed! You should've seen your eyes!" She took stuttering breaths, calming down.

"What do you mean?" I was so lost at this point.

"Yes, Laurance took me on a date, but as a friend, and I didn't want him to do that, he just did. That's why I'm here; because. Of.. I- I-" Her ears started to turn pink, and she started to sink in her seat. If I wasn't confused before, I was completely lost now.

Zane piped up. "Was Kawaii~Chan there to witness this?" She nodded slightly.

"Ooh, I get it. You've never had a friend like KC, have you?" I figured out what was going on and got excited.

"Yeah.. Can we not talk about it right now?" I understood how she felt- not really. I loved how she shipped me with cute girls!

"Of course. You go rest." Zane held out his hand to help her up off the floor, when she ended up. She got up and went to the basement, like a zombie.

"We'll be up here when you wanna hang out, 'kay girl?" She faintly nodded, and closed the door.
