Corpse pulled up to Wren's apartment building. To say he was nervous would be an understatement. This was extremely out of character for him. He had known everyone he met for months before he met them in real life.
He pulled into a pretty much empty parking lot and got out of his black SUV, popping the trunk. He moved some things out of the trunk and into the backseat, and then checked his phone, opening it and checking his most recent message with Wren.

Wren ran across her apartment as she saw him walking towards her door. Pusseidon's toys needed to be put in a box. She picked up a box, set it on the island, grabbed all of his toys, and stuff them in the box. As she put the last toy in she heard a knock at her door.
Walking across her apartment she mentally prepared to have to speak. Opening the door, she gave a small wave and said "Hello!" Her voice seeming to brighten the cloudy sky above him. "Hey." Corpse said quietly.
"Uh, come in! I like your mask." She awkwardly shuffled to the side. He walked in, Pusseidon immediately running up to his leg and rubbing his head against it. "Thank you, I got it in a birthday present from Dave." Corpse said. Wren watched as he bent down to pick up Pusseidon. "Hey there little fella." Corpse said in a voice she'd never heard him use before, making her heart warm at the sight. Granted, she had met him a week ago.
Pusseidon started purring. "I can barely pick him up nowadays. He used to be a lot smaller." Wren smiled. Pusseidon started rubbing his head against Corpse's mask, making it fall down a bit. "Oh gods," Wren turned around quickly. Corpse chuckled. "I feel like we need to face reveal."
"Yes probably. So uhm, how do we do this?" Wren asked taking a deep breathe. "Here I'll turn around and we can both take our masks off," Corpse started, setting Pusseidon down and turning around himself. "On the count of 3 we both turn around, without masks on." He finished, taking off his mask. Wren took off her mask. "Okay. Do we count together?" She asked scratching her arms. "Yeah sure."
"1," they started. "2," it was almost time. "3," they turned around and saw each other for the first time.
They just stared, looking at each other, taking everything in. Corpse noticed her extremely long raven hair, with curtain bangs lining her pale face. She had bright, vibrant green eyes, and plump pink lips. Freckles were sprinkled across her face, and she had a weirdly cute nose. She was quite a bit shorter than him.
Wren noticed the scars on his cheeks. She notices his raven colored curly hair. His brown eyes; not bright, but not dark either. He had on eyeliner, and a smile tugged at his lips as his eyes searched her face. He was pale, but it was to be expected. He never left his house.
"Hi." Wren smiled.
"Hi." Corpse smiled back.
Wren thought for a second before asking her next question. "Would it be okay if I hugged you?"
He hesitated, just barely, before wordlessly pulling her into a bear hug. She giggled, snuggling into his chest lightly, as to not get makeup on his shirt. He smelled like cologne and his nails were painted Emerald Green.
They just stood hugging each other for a few minutes, Corpse mindlessly drawing hearts into her back, before she pulled back smiling. "Shall we begin?"

They packed up Wren's things into his SUV, before Corpse picked up Pusseidon and put him in the backseat. Luckily, Pusseidon was a sweet, lazy cat, and never gave a fuss about anything.
On the way back to their house, Corpse rested his hand on the dashboard and Wren playing with the rings on his hand.
Once they got there, it took them about an hour to get all her things into her room. Then they ate lunch and spoke about house rules, both of them making their own boundaries.
Corpse' Rules
•Don't touch his stuff
•Don't eat anything with his name on it
•Don't bother him when he's streaming
•Take turns taking out the trash
•Keep the house clean
•Always say goodnightWren's Rules
•Take one mental health day a month
•Take turns changing the litter box
•Don't bother her when she's streaming
•Go with her on her 2 am food runs
•Ask before you use anything of hers
•Always say goodnightThey'll probably add more in the future, but for now that was it. They watched tv until dinner, and then Wren had to stream. She streamed until about 10, when she said goodnight and they both went to bed.
They had plans in the morning.
(A/N: this was a short one, but i'm tired and i want to be done with this chapter 💪💪)
