Wilbur and Jared ended up leaving the next morning, but me and Skeppy babbled some excuse and got to stay in the same room together. It was really nice to be able to spend time with him, after all.

Elora, Rat, and Rocco were just the cutest three. They would play together all day long, and Elora looked as if she was the puppy of Lucy and Zak's dog. It was a bit disorienting, but I was glad that we'd decided not to take her to the pound or shelter.

I was watching some TV on the couch. Once again I'd gotten up early, and they had some decent stuff on Saturday mornings. Zak walked into the living room a little flustered, and mumbled, "I've been meaning to ask you if-"

Before he could finish his sentence, Dream walked into the room with his coffee. (Look at chapter photo for reference) I was getting an idea of what Skeppy wanted to ask, and I had to come up with an excuse to decide. These past few days we'd gotten super close, but I wasn't sure if I was ready to take our relationship to the next level yet.

"Clay!" I greeted, "Can I call you that?"

"Of course Bad!" I saw my best friend look a little sad and walk out of the room. My heart completely broke to see him in such distress, and I realized that I did want to take things up a notch. This tension had been building up, and I had completely shut him down, or was I just assuming that's what he'd wanted to ask? I would have to apologize later on and maybe he would finally ask me.

"Uh, I'll be right back-" I couldn't exactly explain this to Dream, but to my absolute horror he replied, "I thought we were doing Irl manhunt?"

"OH SHOOT!" I exclaimed, "Lemme go get ready!" So that's why he was wearing a Dream hoodie and he was carrying the plastic mask again. I was such a muffinehead at times! I quickly got up from the sofa and rushed to me and Skeppy's room. The dogs were in a room a little larger than the average closet, so as to not make a mess, and I heard his voice coming from it. He must be playing with the triplets, I presumed.

Carefully, I snuck around him and into our shared room. I grabbed my Badboyhalo merch and quickly put it on. Then I combed my hair, brushed my teeth, and threw on the first socks I found. Completely unprepared, I rummaged through the stuff that had somehow piled up underneath our bed and grabbed my shoes. It was time for a manhunt!
