The next day you find yourself in the front of the church, a handmade basket filled with bright red strawberries in hand. Let's get this over with. Going through the protocol of the church. Cleanse. Offer. Pray.
"You don't have to do all that y'know?"
"PRIME!"
You were startled by XD's sudden voice coming out of nowhere, your hands clutch your shirt above your heart. The distorted laughter bouncing off the marble walls echoed, dying before starting back up again.
"I hadn't had a good laugh in a long time-- oh prime, pardon me."
"Yeah yeah, whatever."
"How long has it been since the last time we met?"
Were they serious? Had it forgotten you both had met just yesterday?
"Yesterday... we met yesterday?"
"Oh, time means nothing to a god like myself."
Cocky bitch.
XD sat atop the table, the basket now on their lap. You surely didn't expect it to move its mask to the side, the corner of its eyes crinkling from the gentle smile on its face. They pop the fruit into their mouth. You hadn't noticed you were staring. Their emerald green eyes were peering into your soul about to destroy it, to anyone else they would of coward away. You found their eyes resembling the Eyes of Ender, perfectly contrasting its dirty blonde hair and star-like freckles.
The smug smile on XD's face was wiped clean, and an embarrassed and flushed expression took over-- quick to hide it with their mask. Soon you had realized what you did and internally screamed inside, shit they noticed you staring--
"The deal, how many errands do I have to do?"
"A week of errands."
"A week?!"
"Unless you don't want the kid to safe then--"
"Fine. It's a deal."
You barely lasted the week, almost being killed by the eggpire-- being saved by XD which was kind enough of them. Its been following you around all day, similar to a puppy. Usually following you quietly and or help you with little things. As the days passed, the easier the tasks were, the closer you both got to each other. And hey, it wasn't so bad well-- at least when there wasn't anything awkward.
You spoke too soon.
"Hey, Y/n?"
"Yes?" You answered as you cut the last carrot, carefully sliding all of the vegetables into the pot. XD stood idle right behind you, their presence warm. It was getting late and still haven't gotten a chore to do, odd. Suddenly, a soft melody from the jukebox was heard after fingers snapping-- presumingly XD's.

"Dance with me tonight."
Their hand goes to the stove, their body pressed against your back as they turn the heat halfway making your hand pull back. You subconsciously lay into the heat emitting from them, holding your breath. You lay your head back and meet their eyes, face naked.
"Pretend the world and all your worries don't exist, I offer you my hand to dance." They take a step back holding out their hand, stars in their eyes when you accept, almost sweeping you off your feet in a second. It guides your hands to their position, a hand on its hip and the other on its shoulder. After that, there was no going back.
"Is-- Is this today's chore?"
"Yes, why do you ask?" They spin you around before holding you back in place, dirty blonde locks bouncing with every step.
"It's just unexpected... not in a bad way, just surprising. I didn't take you for the dancing type."
"There's a lot you don't know about me, ᒲ|| ʖᒷꖎ𝙹⍊ᒷ↸ ↸ᒷ⍊𝙹ℸ ̣ ᒷᒷ."
"You're doing that thing again, where you talk in that weird language. When are you going to tell me what you're saying?" They answer with a content hum, slightly dipping you down causing their hair to fall on their face. Sweeping it to the side with your free hand, its face glowing in red seeming to be caught off guard. They pull you back up.
"Not in a while, it's quite amusing."
You roll your eyes displeased, the smile on your lips giving away what you actually felt. Your steps quicking with the song before slowing. Both your hand out holding each other, your other curving around each other's back. Each step they take forward you take a step back, swaying to the side at moments.
"Y𝙹⚍ ⊣╎⍊ᒷ ᒲᒷ ⎓ᒷᒷꖎ╎リ⊣ᓭ i ᓵᔑリ'ℸ ̣ !¡⚍ℸ ̣ ╎リℸ ̣ 𝙹 ∴𝙹∷↸ᓭ."
They shake its head almost displeased, as if contradicting whatever they said. You could only frown. You wanted to know and understand what they were saying. Once they notice your change of mood their soft smile returns.
"What a plot twist you were in all of my existence, I ꖎ╎ꖌᒷ ||𝙹⚍ ᒲ𝙹∷ᒷ ℸ ̣ ⍑ᔑリ i !¡ꖎᔑリリᒷ↸."
They let go of your hand before crouching down to wrap their arms underneath your behind, picking you up before spinning around and startling you. Your arms wrap around its neck in panic, laughter rumbling your core. Gently dropping you to your feet once the song fades to the end, the adrenaline still rushing through your veins.
"That's all for today, thank you for the dance." It brings your hand to its mouth, pressing their lips to your skin, feeling the familiar tingle on your skin. You nod with parted lips, aghast. Its eyes squint in total delight and bliss.
"Sleep well, tomorrow's the last day."
They had a bittersweet taste on their tongue saying those words, giving a quick peck on your forehead before disappearing. If you weren't falling into a web of love before, now you're entangled in it. The stove's timer went off indicating the vegetable soup was done, the sound pulling you out of your trance.
Tomorrow's the last day...
