Lemon / Cat / Prince / (He/Him): Italics
Red / Radish / Cola (He/Him): Underlined

Proof walked home from the grocery store, the plastic bags rustled in it's hands. The streets were being lit up with street lamps. The sun was setting, causing the city to shine with orange and purple hues. Music from it's headphones played it's favourite songs. The sound echoing through the city walls was cicadas, the buzzing was nice to hear. Proof came to the apartment building it lives in. It walked into the elevator and pressed the 6 button. The elevator soon opened it's doors. Proof walked out and to it's room, it put in the keys and walked in.

I'm home!

It was quiet, only the music from the speakers played. A grin spread across Proof's face.

Boy, I wonder where everyone could be!

Proof heard a snicker come from the closet. It quickly walked to the closet and flung the door to the side.

Gotcha!

Lemon sighed as he crawled out of the closet.

Did the little laugh ruin it?

A little bit, haha, wait, where's Red?

N-nowhere!

Lemon's dead giveaway was the small look to the chest against the bed

Proof immediately swung the chest door open and looked down at Red, scrunched up in the chest.

Ugh, Lemon! You ruined it!

You know im a bad lair

Boys, boys, your both pretty. Go ahead and set the dinner table

Okay-

Okay

Lemon and Red walked to the dining room together and began to clear off the table.

Proof began to open the chicken packets and start cooking.

About 30 minutes later Proof brought food to the table. Fried rice and chicken. It smelled amazing. It brought the plates to the table.

How was your day, Proof?

Same ol' same ol', you guys seemed to have fun though
Proof nodded to Lemon's paint stained hands

Oh uh... Red and I were painting together

He forced me!

Did not, you wanted to

Guys, come on

Proof said as It rolled it's eyes.

This is really good food, thank you for the rice, Proof

Yes its delicious

Oh, ya know...

Proof said as it rubbed the back of its neck.

Yall done?

Yes

Yep.

Proof swept up the plates and carried them to the kitchen, rinsed them and walked to the living room.

The house was cozy, They each had bed's in their respective areas.

Lemon had a bed in the main room, it was red and right next to the closet and computer.

Red had a whole room to himself, his bed was also red and he also had a computer in his room, along with windows and a curtain.

Proof had a bed in the loft, it's sheets were purple, it had plants on the windowsill and shelves. Proof also had a turntable and played all it's favourite records on it.

They each had chests filled with their stuff and clothes.

Proof's chest was painted with clouds and stars and planets and oceanic animals and chemical formulas "Just in case!" was the motto for why it was even there in the first place.

Lemon's chest had scratch marks on it and painted on it too, he always painted on it, just random stuff, like lemons, and names of songs he really liked and stranger things stuff

Red's chest was crazy, just a bunch of colours splattered on it and spread everywhere. And scratched random letters in it. As well as the scratched in words "DO NOT OPEN"

They all had rooms decorated to fit their styles. Life was perfect, or was it too good to be true?
