Figure's pov:

I was sitting in silence, admiring the sweet song of the rain, half awake and half asleep. I hadn't wanted to move. I felt at ease, sitting here. But... I felt something laying next to me. I was resting my hand on something... That hadn't felt like the arms of the couch I sat on. As I regained what was going on, I suddenly realized, that I had fallen asleep next to Seek.

Oh...- oh my god...

My heart fluttered, I was sitting here next to Seek. I hadn't wanted to move, afraid of waking up the shorter entity sleeping next to me. I never wanted this feeling to stop...

I was nervous about what Seek would think about me when he woke up, but... I couldn't let this moment go to waste. In the moment, I had wished for one thing and one thing only. I wish Seek really knew how I felt about him.

"I love you so much..." I whispered under my breath quietly as I turned my head to him. I only had to hope he wasn't fake sleeping. One day, one day... I would say that to him while he's awake and aware. It was disappointing that I couldn't see him. I would love to see him. To know more about him. I rubbed his thigh softly, leaning my head back on his head.

Suddenly, I lifted my head back up. Oh God, what time was it? Was it still Sunday? I took my hand off Seeks thigh and turned my head to him.

"Seek, wake up," I said, not too loud and not too quietly. He seemed to wake up from that, He straightened himself and I felt him turn to me.

"Uuuhhh...- what time is it...?" Seek groaned, not seeming to take notice of the fact I slept next to him. "I'm not sure... We should get to our jobs though just in case." I said, standing up. My legs felt weak from sitting so long. I heard Seek sit up as well. I turned to him. "Meet me in the library later, I guess." I said, "Okay." Seek agreed quietly as I heard him walk swiftly away off to the library's door. I waved my hand as I listened to the sound of the door opening and closing.

And then he was gone. I fell back into the couch, slouching down slightly. I loved him so much. I can't believe we fell asleep next to each other. I couldn't take it. After work, I was going to confess to him. I felt as if he'd understand more and it wouldn't affect our relationship as much because of when we fell asleep next to each other. I hoped. I hoped it wouldn't affect our relationship. The pressure and pain of keeping this secret from everybody were starting to become too much to handle.

As I sat there, I thought of ways to tell him how I felt. "Seek, I love you." "Seek, I like you a lot." "I can't keep this a secret anymore, I love you." After a few minutes of brainstorming, I came up with the most perfect way to tell him. We'd go into that garden area and sit for a moment, then I'd tell him how I truly, really felt.

Sitting there in the silence of the library, only the sound of the rain echoing throughout the large room, I decided to get up and perhaps... check out the books in the library. The same activity I always had done before I met Seek, the endless lonely hours here. Have I read practically every braille book in this place? Most likely. I sat up, stumbling slightly as I walked with my hand outstretched, running my fingers along the spines of the leather covers, pacing the library's bookshelves, and daydreaming while waiting for a player to enter the library.

Seeks pov:

I hastily walked to the exit of the library in embarrassment, oh my god. I had fallen asleep next to him... again. I tried to control a steady heartbeat while in the library with him but now that I was out of there, I could barely even breathe.

But, I couldn't stay here standing in shock in front of the library's double doors. I calmed myself slightly and started the journey of getting to my hallway before any players arrived.

After around a couple minutes, I had finally made it to my hallway and sunk into the ground, arriving in my room. I observed my room for a moment, even though I've seen it many times before.

I spaced out for a moment as I thought about the event with Figure, my heart started pounding uncontrollably again. I then zoned back in as I realized that it would've been awkward just standing there silently, with the many eyes on my wall staring at me. I awkwardly shuffled over to my bed and sat down, my body had felt so heavy.

I wanted to confess to Figure so badly. I couldn't take it, the feeling was unbearable but it felt amazing. It was amazing loving him, because I've never really felt love before. Besides it feeling amazing, it was pressuring to keep it a secret. Especially for such a long time.

I turned my head over and looked at my clock, it had read 7:04 am, or correctly 7:07 am. Players would be arriving any minute but all I could think about was Figure. I just had to hope that I wouldn't get distracted by the thought of Figure during work, and just as I had thought that I heard the door to my hallway open and the footsteps of 2 players.
