Octane rubbed his eyes, stretching and getting out of bed. he kicked one of the half crished energy drink cans. he sat in the spinny gaming chair and looked at his phone. 2 messages sent at 11:17pm. he opened the message from last night and read it

Mirage_thehandsome:
"How was your date last night?"
"😘😘😘😂"

he blushed and rolled his eyes, not bothering to respond. octane doesn't do love. he doesn't wanna be slowed down by anything. he got dressed into a band tee and ripped black jeans and slipped on his mask, pushing his hair under the hood and walked out.

downstairs, wraith was sat on the couch, valk and wattson were talking. lifeline was working on her D.O.C, maybe tightening some screws and mirage was huffing at some comments thrown at him by crypto. octane walked straight to the kitchen and opened the fridge, pulling out an energy drink. He sponsored the drink on his streams and had a flavour brought out called stim. a bit biased but who could blame him.

As he drank he saw his best friend approach. "Hey hey! get ready for the mirage-train" elliot chuckled as octane shook his head in disapproval. he rolled his eyes "oh come on, why does it work for you" octavio didnt feel the need to respond, just drinking the energy drink and sitting on a stool.

"Soooooooooo" octavio knew that tone, he didnt like it. "You and nat huh? when is the wedding? whos surname are you using? what-" He covered his mouth, under the mask he was blushing, though he was glad it was covered up. "Amigo, it wasn't anything like that. we were just hanging out" he loudly whispered, elliot easnt taking any of it

"Suuure. but you can tell me if you need some sweet mirage magic to help you out  picking up chicks is my speciality" he winked, giving him a wide grin. octavio once and awhile glanced over to natalie, he loved how soft her hair was, and her eyes were beautiful, and her smile was warm and sweet. He covered his face with one hand, looking away. his face was hot and he felt light. He couldnt actually like her could he?

No way! octane doesnt do love! though he couldnt help but think about her. she was perfect in his eyes, and her beautiful body. and her laugh could brighten up a room and- Shut up octavio, what the hell is wrong with you, we're only friends, stop being a creep.

he was silent for awhile and eliott looked a little concerned. octavio finally snapped out of it and looked towards his friend, finishing off the energy drink, lifting up his mask so you couldnt see his face but he could drink from the can. he crushed it and threw it away, getting up and taking a deep breath. "I'll see you around eli"

octavio waljed over to natalie, smiling though she couldnt see it. "Hey nat. You wanna go get breakfast or something?" Natalie smiled and nodded, saying goodbye to valkyrie and walking off with him.

natalie decided to change, octavio was already in his casual clothes so he just took a seat and waited for her. he blushed as she walked out, wearing a light blue cropped hoodie and blue jeans, converse shoes and a black beanie.

"So where did you have in mind?" She smiled, walking with him. "Theres a little diner near town, they do the best pancakes" he chuckled, natalie joining him. "Never thought youd be the guy to like small diners, its cute" she blushed, she accidentally slipped the last comment out, hoping he misheared her, though she was wrong.

As they walked into town, people saw octavio and snapped photos, natalie covered her face in embarassment, getting closer to him. some people snapped remarks of them being in a relationship, others asking who natalie was, and some recognizing her from the games. Octavio noticed her discomfort and started to walk faster, slightly dragging her along.
