Alone in Medbay [Discontinued]

Chapter 3 : Questions

Blaza yawned as he wake up from his slumber. It was a not bad sleep. He gotten used to sleeping without gravity while in a sleeping bag inside a cramp sleeping capsule that has the size of a telephone booth.

He stumbled out of the sleeping bag, and floated outside the sleeping capsule. He always have a need to pee everytime he woke up. Karen already started the heater and he vividly remembered her announcing them landing in Polus along with a bit of shaking. But he was barely awake last night so he didnt remember much.

He half walked half floated to the bathroom, passing the Skeld's cafeteria. The artificial gravity is always a bit wonky in Skeld. Some room has more gravity while some others have less.

He barely glanced at medbay before he realized he saw an orange man. He paused then did a double check. Blaza walked in and grinned like a chesire cat at the sight.

Socks and Meme was sleeping in the same bed, Socks' body wrapped around Meme's. The orange spaceman's face was resting on Meme's cheek, their fingers intertwined. They both look so peaceful and comfortable with each other, looking like an old married couple.

Awwwww how adorable!!! Blaza cooed internally, taking little silent steps to the sleeping duo. Meme stirred slightly and Socks who was sleeping sideways, fell into his back and continued snoring. Meme's head flopped sideways and fell onto Socks' chest. Both of them wore small smiles.

Blaza felt like his heart is gonna explode in joy and his cheekbones to break because how wide he was grinning. He resisted the urge squeal out loud.

Blaza was never a shipper, but seeing Socks and Meme sleeping in the same bed, Meme resting on Socks' chest so casually, and their intertwining fingers made Blaza hope his two best friends end up together.

Meme began to stir up again, so Blaza relunctantly leave. He looked at the hope to be couple and smile. He had to ask questions.

****
Meme yawned as his eyelids flutter open. He never slept that good in ages. The cold has subdued, Karen apparently already turn on the heater thankfully. Meme looked around, realising that he kept moving in his sleep because he was not in the same position.

But his jaw dropped when he realized where he was sleeping. He was sleeping on Socks' chest. Heat rushed to his cheek, turning it red. He immediately sat upright, his breath heaving unsteadily. He looked at the medbay entrance, the door was opened wide. Did someone see them? Hopefully not. Just the thought of someone seeing them sleeping together in the same bed made Meme nervous and embarassed.

"Meme?"

The doctor nearly jumped in suprise by the unexpenctant calling of his name. Socks apparently just woke up, his brown hair in a complete mess.

"Oh hi Socks, I just uhhh—did you sleep well?" Meme asked akwardly, his cheeks still pink.

"Huh? Oh yeah, its okay I guess." Socks answered through a yawn. He looked around blearily. "So its morning already huh? Good sleep?"

"Yeah... good sleep." Meme whispered, his cheeks hot. Socks didnt know yet and he will never know, Meme thought determinely. He looked at the opened medbay doors again. And hopefully no one saw us here,

Socks looks like he's thinking the exact same thing. They share a glance and nodded.

"This information is just between us, okay?"Socks said, confirming Meme's suspision. "No one else."

Meme nodded in affirmative. They sat in akward silence for a while, still processing on what happened.

"We're still friends right?" Socks asked again, a bit timid. Meme nodded again. "Yeah...friends." Meme offered a weak grin. His stomach wheeze uncomfortably. Why is he feeling like this? Probably just hunger.

"Let's get out and eat, my stomach is rumbling." Meme said, jumping out of the bed. The thought of spending more time in the same bed as Socks make him feel giddy. His cheeks heatened as he remember how comfortable he felt sleeping on Socks' chest.

Why are you like this idiot? He only slept in the same bed as you so you don't get hypothermia you absolute nitwit, Meme's brain screamed at him. He felt an urge to punch his own head just to make his brain stop screaming that. But then again, he'd look stupid if he did it.

"Hey Socks! Hey Meme!" a familiar voice rang out behind him. Meme looked around to see his best friend, Blaza walking up to him. He wore a light orange pjama with banana patterns and his blonde hair is in a complete mess. He look like he just woke up but is weirdly energetic.

"Hey Blaza," Socks greeted from his side. Huh? Was he always there? He must have been so lost in thought to not see Socks walking beside him.

"So...what were you guys doing in medbay?" Blaza asked, a wide grin plastered on his face. Meme felt his stomach grumble uncomfortably. Oh no, did Blaza saw them? Hurry up, make an excuse you nittwitt, His brain ushered him. Shut up, you're not helping brain.

"What do you mean?" Socks asked again, a slight quiver in his voice. Blaza just grinned wider, if that is even possible.

"Oh just what you two were doing in medbay," He smirked, smugness filling his voice. He dropped his tone in a whisper. "Don't worry, I aint mad if you two--you know. Just tell me if you're ready." He whispered, before smiling and walking away, a spring in his steps.

Meme cheeks turned beet red. He walked to the banana man, and grab his shoulder. "No, please don't tell!" Meme realized it made the matter worse. "I ment--me and Socks is just friends. We were locked in medbay and the heater wasnt on last night and we slept in the same bed so I don't get hypothermia!" He spluttered out.

Blaza laughed. "Sure Meme, sure. I understand if you dont wanna tell me yet. Don't worry, Sunlit and Tenson is dating too--in secret of course-- so you two aren't the only love birds in the ship. You can also tell Swaggy too. He knows about their relationship too."

Meme looked at Blaza. Sunlit and Tenson dating? He barely saw the two interact, the thought of the two dating feels weird. Well Blaza did say its in secret. He shook the thought out of his head, that wasnt important.

"Blaza--"

"Sssh..." Blaza place his finger on Meme's lips to stop him from talking. "You're not ready, thats okay. I'm patient. Just tell me if you need any help for the date." He winked before skipping away. Meme's cheeks turned beet red.

"BLAZA YOU DIDNT EVEN LISTEN YOU LITTLE PIECE OF SH--"

"Hey, hey, hey, no need to wake the entire ship Memegod." Socks said, putting a hand on Meme's shoulder and rolling his eyes. Meme looked at the spaceman. His boiling anger decreased.

"Its just--ugh Blaza." Meme grumbled, crossing his arms. His stomach wheezed and his cheeks turned pink remembering what Blaza said. Socks sighed.

"I don't know how he knew--he must have passed medbay when we slept. But don't listen to him and his weird obsession of shipping people." Socks put a hand on Meme's shoulder, making the doctor's heart pound. "We're just friends, remember?"

The word made him mentally wince for some reason.

"Yeah." Meme said, looking at the spaceman. "Friends."
