The rain pitter pattered against the glass window, dripping down against it in a race to reach the outside sill. Only to curve down the wall and reach the freshly dampen soil, soaking into the ground to be sucked up by the roots of plants nearby.

The sound of acoustic covers of famous love songs played gently, ranging from room to room. The current one being Happier by Ed Sheeran, that rung throughout your small apartment.

Cinnamon scented candles lit, casting a relaxing aura around the place as you set yourself down in the corner of your worn love sofa. A knitted blanket made by your grandmother keeping you warm from the coolness seeping in. Book in hand, as you sat enchanted in the thriller romance happening, flipping page after page. Face converting into different expressions with the events that were typed out onto the paper. Music perfectly changing to the right mood present in the book.

"I can't believe Damien would do th-" Upon hearing a rapid tapping, you lifted your head up to the direction it possibly came from. Curiosity making its way into the pit of your stomach if you had heard right.

It was quiet, just as you were about to settle back into the book, another round of fast tapping came around. Making you jump up, almost falling down on the way to the front door due to the blanket tangling around your feet.

Lifting yourself up a bit with your toes, you peered through the peephole to only see an all to familiar mop of chestnut locks, seemingly dripping due to the rain. Orange tinted goggles resting up top, as you saw his head continuously look both ways in a nervous habit.

Unlocking the door, you fling it open to stare wide eye at the boy in front of you, him turning to look down at you in relief.

"Toby? What- why are you here?" You ask, grabbing hold of his arm and pulling him in. "And coming here in the rain, no less! You could get sick!"

Shutting the door, you make a quick beeline to your restroom, opening a cabinet to grab ahold of a few fresh towels, setting them on the side of the sink.

Toby had followed you, already slipping his hoodie off and dropping it in the basket of dirty clothes, having left his googles, mask, and shoes near the front entrance.

"I'll be back with some clothes." Quickly shifting around him, making your way into your room, you pull open a spare drawer used for Toby's clothes whenever he's around. Grabbing hold of a plain brown t-shirt, designed with a small white Nyan Cat, navy blue sweatpants, and a pair of boxers. Folding them, you make it back to the bathroom, hearing the water running.

"Toby!" Yelling, twisting the doorknob, "I'm coming in so don't be alarmed!"

Opening the door a bit to peak through, you see he's already cleaning up in the shower, and make your way in to set the clothes down by the towel.  Telling him you set them out for him, before proceeding to head into the kitchen to make both of y'all some tea.

You and Toby were snuggled back in the corner of your sofa, the blanket wrapped around both of you. A hand raking through his soft, damp locks. The other scrolling through your phone, a good distance away from his face so he can see your feed as well.

Other than the still low music playing in the background, and the taps of the rain, it was quiet. Calm, though. Till Toby broke it by shifting to sit up and turn towards you.

"Y-you're probably st-still wondering why I'm here?" It came out more like a question than he probably wanted it to, watching for your reaction.

"Yes! I am still wondering. Toby, you showed up while it's pouring outside, I need an explanation. You could've gotten sick, or worse." It was unnecessary to, how your voice dipped to a hasty whisper, "You could've been recognized by someone, and they would've called the cops, and then you get sent to jail! Or- or maybe to an island filled with crazy, one eyed, tattooed lunatics—"

"You and I b-both know they wouldn't be able to c-catch me." His hazel, honey dipped eyes rolled to the left, staring out a window as his neck gave a soft tick. Followed by an uncontrollable crack of his fingers, trying to grip the falling blanket to stop himself.

"But what if they did? Then what?"

"T-hen you get to live a normal life. Serial killer free!"

Toby grinned, trying to uplift the downgrading mood as best he could, seeing your frustrated form not bringing a good vibe to his rapidly beating heart. He doesn't like seeing you anything but happy.

"T—"

"A-anyways. For why I'm here." He whipped out a small camera from seemingly no where, flipping it open, turned it on and set it down on the table in front of the sofa. Clicking the record button, before shuffling back to your side, cracking his neck again. "BEN, one of m-my.. ffffriends, I guess you could s-say."

"You don't seem confident with that."

"He ate something that was m-mine."

"Ah."

Toby shook his head, his now dried hair swishing with the movements. Eyes looming back to you, before a hand grabbed a hold of yours, tugging it to be placed against near his scarred cheek.

Although obliging, your eyebrow furrowed in confusion. A small smile taking hold of your lips as you were about to speak up once more, before he fought you to it. A slow exhale leaving his lips, as pure determination settled in his chocolate and carmel orbs.

"BEN h-had dared me to prove you exist since no one in the m-mansion believes me." He started, a hand following to gently grab hold of your shoulder, as he leaned closer to you. "So they gave me Hoodie's c-camera to film that you in fac-ct, are real."

"I—"

"A-and that.. that you aren't just another one of my delusions.." His hush tone was laced with worry, in the fact that maybe you were just some random being he conjured up over the year. That you didn't exist the entire time, and he fooled himself into finding someone he thought could love him.

It pained your heart to see him like that. So carefully, you placed your other hand upon his cheek, rubbing your thumbs in a circular motion to soothe his racing mind. His glossy pools darting to stare back into your own (e/c) eyes, thin line of tears building up.

Until you slowly coaxed him forward, placing your lips upon his own.

It was a soft, gentle peck. But within it, held many emotions.

The adoration you had for him, the want and need to make him know you are here. The love showing through such a small action.

But he could feel it all.

He felt the way your slightly chapped, but still smooth lips landed upon his again, the way he moved perfectly against you before you were about to pull away. He could feel your warmth upon his finger tips as he brought them underneath the back of your shirt, to lay upon your back. Sending a shiver up your spine at the cool touch.

Nonetheless, you smiled into the kiss seeing how he reacted back, as Toby begun to push you back into the sofa. Hovering a bit over you, the brown gold mix of his eyes you love to stare into closed, living in the moment.

And speaking of living, y'all needed some oxygen for it to stay that way.

Not wanting to, but having to, you gently pushed Toby away from you. Him obliging seeing as his red toned cheeks puffed up with every inhale he took. You probably mirrored him in the color spectrum.

"See," Reaching to take hold of his cheeks again, and him to take hold of yours. His thumb hovering over your lips, before doing the same circular motion you had done to him, "I exist."

"Yeah. You exist."

➖【🪓💞🪓】➖

"So, what about the recording?" You asked, back to snuggling in the corner of the couch, Toby having his head lay on your chest as you play with his hair.

"We'll r-rerecord it." He replied, shifting a bit, wrapping his arms around your waist.

You simply nodded, satisfied with the answer.

But what y'all didn't know was a certain zapping, and end of the recording.

And where a room of people were watching the whole thing go down.
