(Shrignold's POV)

I was fluttering my wings to create a small breeze in the warm room. I was honestly excited for my new job since I can try to pair people with their special ones! As I was introducing myself to everyone; there was one solitary lamp that stayed on the couch which seemed like a few bottles of beer around him. "I guess that's the drunk guy Tony told me about." I thought to myself as I fluttered towards him. I sat down next to him so i could talk to him, but before I could even speak I heard screams coming from the kitchen. I went to the kitchen where I heard the screams. "What's wrong?" I asked, standing in the doorway. "There's a rat inside!" They both screamed. I jumped onto the table along with them until Tony walked in irritated by their screams. He caught the rat and threw it outside. After he threw the rat out he went back to his room. We got off the table and went back to what we were doing. I went back to the couch so I could talk to the lone lamp. "Hello, I'm Shrignold!" I said, with a little smile on my face. "The names Larrry." He slurred, turning his attention towards me. "It's nice to meet you Larry." I said, eager to get to know him. "What do you do for the job?" He asked still slurring. "I teach about love. What about you?" I asked, fluttering my wings. "Dreams" He slurred. We talked for hours on end, getting to know more and more about each other. When I checked the time it was 10:11. Everyone was starting to go to bed but I wasn't really tired. He started to ramble about something, "Everyone that talked to me only said their name and what they do for the job. I don't know why though." He slurred a bit, not being as drunk as he was before. "Maybe they didn't like the fact that you were drunk at the time." I said trying to find a reason. "Maybe." He said. I yawned a bit. He was staring at me with a serious face. "Go to bed you're tired." He said with a cold sounding voice. "But I'm not tired." I said while slouching down onto the couch. "You just yawned. I can tell you're tired." He said while standing up. I crossed my arms and sat there. We were both staring at each other for a while. While I was waiting for him to do something, he walked over to me and picked me up bridle style. I felt my face heat up by the sudden action. He started to walk towards my room. Once we got there he had put me down in my bed. "We can talk more in the morning. Now get some rest." He said while closing my door. My cheeks still felt warm. I laid on my side and slowly closed my eyes.

(Larry's POV)

I closed his door and started going to my room so I could go to sleep myself. As I reached my door I heard a small, quiet voice speak from the side of my. "Hello?" A small can said. "Hello." I said gently not wanting to scare the small can. "Why are you up?" They asked while coming a bit closer. "I was putting a friend to bed since they were tired." I said in a quiet soothing voice. "Oh. Well good night mister." The can said while heading back to a room. I walked into my room and laid in bed for a while. Soon I felt myself drift off to sleep.

{8:27 AM}

I groaned as I got up not wanting to get up. There was a lot of muffled talking. I started to walk to the kitchen, when I walked in, the room fell silent. "What?" I asked, looking around. No reply. They turned around and continued talking to one another. I shrugged and walked to the couch. I flopped onto the couch and turned on the television. I started to flick through the channels but nothing interesting was on. When I was about to turn off the television South Park started to play. I turned my attention to the TV. I watched the show in delight. I got up from the couch and got a beer from out of the fridge. "Is it a bit too early for a beer?" A familiar voice asked from behind me. "Isn't it too early to try and pair people together?" I jokingly replied. We both laughed as we started to walk towards the sofa. "Ooo, this is my favorite show!" He said while jumping onto the couch. "I thought Betty Boop was your favorite show." I said, confused. "That doesn't matter right now." He said while watching the television. We both watched the show for hours. Once it turned off we were bored once again. "Wanna play some board games?" He offered. "Sure. There really isn't anything else to do." I said while getting up. We walked to his room, while he was grabbing some board games I sat on his bed. He brought out Monopoly, Janga, Trouble, Sorry, Uno, and Twister. "Wow." I was astonished on how many games he had. "He had a lot of games." I thought while I watched him put the games one by one onto the bed. "What do you wanna play first?" He asked as he put the last game onto the bed. I shrugged, not knowing what to play. We played the games and talked for a while but I could tell that he was getting tired. It was around the middle of the night, so I started to put the games up. "What are you doing?" He said while yawning. "You're tired so I'm putting the games up so you can sleep." I said after I finished putting the rest of the games up. "Can you stay? I had trouble sleeping last night." He mumbled ever so quietly under his breath. "Sure! I have some ways of helping people sleep, I am the teacher of dreams after all" I said while grabbing some books off the shelf. "Thanks Larry." He said quietly. "You're welcome Shrigs" I say in a soothing and calm voice.
