It was still dark out. Mountain was sat in his bed, thinking of all of his encounters between him and Terre throughout the week.

Copia had tried to convince him to convince Terre to join as a backup even after she had declined a week ago. But that wasn't why he was awake.

He couldn't get her face out of his head. Her laugh..

Maybe she would be a problem for him once the band went on tour. But he knew from what he'd heard from the others that she probably had the same feelings towards him.

Swiss and Flare had made sure he knew that every time he even doubted it for a second.

"Uh.. I don't know.. she's pretty busy most of the time" Mountain sighed, flopping back onto his bed.

"And somehow you always have time to hang out with her?" Rain laughed at his best friend.

"We don't even hang out that often" the earth ghoul responded in a defensive manner.

"Sure.." The bassist chuckled. "Careful or else I'll try my luck since she's also into bass"

Mountain shot up at those words, causing Rain to burst out laughing. The taller ghoul's face was stripped of emotion, staring into the others.

"C'mon that was funny! You should've seen yourself!" Rain continued laughing.

"I should've known you were joking" he huffed, throwing a pillow at the other.

"Careful now" Rain chuckled. "Don't want to hit your beautiful rose from your beloved Terre Ghuleh"

"Oh, shit! I forgot to water it!" Mountain quickly got up from his bed, looking for the spray bottle Terre had given him.

"So.. you planning on taking it on tour with you?" Rain asked.

Mountain gave it a few sprays of water. "Well— Wait- no. I can't risk losing it"

"You thought about it!" The water ghoul teased.

"I think you should go" the drummer was quick to say with a red face.

"Ohhh you're blushing!" Rain responded.

Mountain had to practically push the other out the door, hearing him call out to someone in the hall.

"No, you idiot!" Mountain whispered, but it was too late.

"Oh hey you two" Terre waved.

Mountain shyly waved at the ghuleh, causing her to look at the bassist for any context. Rain just giggled, getting a thick glare from Mountain.

"I was heading this way to ask if you lot wanted some lemonade" she said, holding up a jug of lemonade which was probably homemade.

"Mia mamma used to always make this recipe" she giggled a bit.

Before Mountain could even make an excuse, Rain already replied: "Oh, we'd love some!"

"Oh! Alright! I was also thinking of going to the forest if that wasn't too much trouble" she smiled innocently. "Kind of a picnic?"

"Sounds absolutely delightful! Right Mounty?" Rain turned to his friend, who could only nod. "You can lead the way sista!"

"Sista?" Terre laughed.

"It's funny!" The water ghoul laughed, following right next to her.

Mountain followed behind the two, kind of irritated by Rain.

The three made their way through the garden into the woods. This would be a long walk.

Terre tried her best not to walk off into the middle of nowhere, pointing out any wild flower in her vision.
