"how about we...go downstairs, I'll prepare something for you, you've been through enough"

"ok, I would like...that"

five held sevens hand and went downstairs, it was their first time holding hands with someone so they felt a little flustered. sevens hand felt...soft, although it was soaked in tears, it felt comforting.

they both sat down on the sofa and five turned on the TV, they decided to pick some calming music to cool them and seven down.

"hey I like this song!"

five looked at seven and clicked on the video, then left the remote on the sofa and went to the kitchen, then they asked:

"do you want like uhhh....a strawberry milkshake, I mean your fridge looks quite empty."

...

five then paused for a minute, continued:

"what have been eating seven? and have you been stocking up the fridge? these things look like the exact same from when I came here a week ago"

"I...uh, I have just been ordering takeout"

five stayed silent and took out the strawberries and milk from the fridge, good thing both of them weren't expired. then five washed the strawberries and put them in the food processor including with the milk, they poured the mixture out and stuck a plastic straw on it.

"here's your milkshake, also please do yourself a favor and get groceries"

seven chuckled and took a sip of the milkshake, even though it was just strawberries and milk, the combo tasted really well! then they talked with five:

"five, since when did you care about me that much? I mean, yeah you ARE doing the bare minimum when someone almost committed but you went far and beyond from that point. I've always thought you hated me, haha!"

"well yes, I HAD hated you for a while but ever since you became a lot nicer, I started to go a little bit softer on you. plus uh..."

five sat on the sofa and scoots themselves closer to seven, blushing.

"...I have also developed feelings for you too"

after that five placed their hand softly on sevens. seven quickly became flustered, turns out five also has feelings for them too! they placed their milkshake on the glass tabletop and after that. they held fives hand tightly while also gripping the fabric on their couch because of this moment.

"wow!uh... who would've known, I've also been uh...feeling the same" seven said quietly

"really? oh gosh...this is really something!"

...

they both felt quite awkward, the calming music played through the atmosphere, who knew Seven likes laufey?

the silence soon came to an end when five came in for a kiss, their lips met eachother then they snapped back. both blushed at eachother and smiled

"that...was kinda fun!" said seven, their head is going crazy from the mixed emotions. they don't know how to feel, then seven went in for a nice little hug.

"I love you, seven"

...

"I love you too, five"

from that everything was going smooth sailing, five and seven were talking to eachother about some movies they saw and some other random stuff. then seven heard the doorbell ring.

"give me a second, five"

seven got up from their seat and looked through the peep hole, it was...NINE?!

"NINE?! WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?" screamed seven

"yah! so like I heard little brolinda broski seven was screaming so I went to check em out!"

"nine, that was AN HOUR AGO." five decided to butt in.

"ay! seven bro, what's this little five bro doing here?"

"none of your business. anyway, you came to check me out?" seven questioned nine, they were rather curious what happened to the others while they were absent.

"yuh dude!! everyone was questioning where you were, some of them even called you and whizzle whazzle" nine then added

"but we're glad that you're ok seven bro!! wanna go talk to the others tomorrow?"

...

"yeah, I would love that. nice talking to you nine"

"see ya broski!!" nine waved and walked away

seven shut the door and went back to where they were with five. they also forgot to finish their milkshake but they gave it to five. five continued talking to them and they were having a great time!

...

....

.....

"seven"

"seven, seven~!"

it was the voices again...
