I had got ready and started walking to the downstairs. Both me and Five remained in our regular uniforms since we both hated wearing anything else. Mainly because we wore these for so long, they were finally beginning to look good and feel comfortable. 

It took Five quite a long time to get down. I didn't know what he was doing up there, but he was there for about an hour. It was now 8:00, and very dark outside, just like how Five wanted it. 

As I was thinking this, I heard soft footsteps coming from upstairs. He looked normal as usual, so it confused me why he took so long. Maybe he wanted to be fresh and took a long shower?

"Ready to go?" He asked me. "Yeah" I replied with a smile. We walked out of the Academy and went to the park. This was the park that I went to when I was younger. I remember crying tears, laughing out loud, and even dancing here. It clearly had many memories. 

It was dark enough that you could clearly see that the mist was flowing around the ground. I smiled to myself as I felt the chill air fly through my hair. 

"What are things you like to do?" Five asked randomly. "Uh, well. I didn't have any hobbies when I was younger and I didn't really do anything for the past year, so I don't know" I replied to him. "You?" I asked. "Same answer, but I might add talking to Delores on the list" Five winked at me. 

I giggled shyly and looked down with my blushing face. "Could you tell me more about Delores? I would like to know more about her" I asked Five. He took a deep breath in, "You already know about her, I guess. She was kinda like a person I made up in my head for my own pass time and broken life. She was like my comfort person, but more of a comfort thing, though." He said. 

"I mentally made her my crush and and liked her. But, I soon found it unhealthy and just gave up on her and kept her as my vent person. But, now, of course, I have you" He ended with a smile. "And I have you too" I replied. "How's life for you now? Feeling better?" He asked. "Yeah, way better than before I vented to you."

"But, I still have it as a itching feeling, you know? Like someone is continuously telling me I can't make it in life and that I'll just disappear without anyone knowing." I continued to say darkly. 

Five all of sudden stopped. "Can't you ignore it?" He asked. "I just can't, but trust me, it has got better for the last few days" I told him. He nodded, but didn't continue walking and instead started starring at me weirdly. 

"Is there anything on my face, or...?" I confusedly asked him. "No, you look great. Actually. More than great. Just really pretty" He quickly said. I blushed at him, "You think I'm pretty?" I asked him. "Very" He breathed out. 

He stepped closer to me. I started to feel my breath get shaky. "Wha- What are you doing?" I stuttered out. He didn't respond and just stepped more closer so that his nose was close to touching mine.
