Milk's Pov

The team picking starts now...and I'm nervous...

Considering everyone was slowly being picked one by one...

They probably see me as unreliable, i don't blame them for it really, but...did my conversation with Bottle even Meant Anything...?

Maybe not...

Just for a little fresh of memory, I guess I'll say what's going on at the moment.

Teams are being picked by the following. Caramel Cube, Globe, and Treasure Chest. And I'm one of the few left that hasn't been picked yet...and...I feel like I'm not going to be much reliable.

But...there's bottle on one of them. She was there when I felt like I was going to be an easy boot, so...she could help me out like she said she would...right...?


...


Right...?

Bottle's Pov

Milk isn't even picked yet...

I see what she meant by she doesn't have much friends of socializing to. Because now it's just her, plasma ball, and Slipper left unchosen. Maybe I should convince Globe to pick Milk, hopefully by then today we can see what she can be made of.

Just as I got out of my thoughts and planned it out, I heard plasma ball being chosen on Caramel Cube's Team.

Caramel Cube: I'll choose Plasma ball. She seems like a pretty good ally to have, even for a last ally.

Plasma ball: took you long enough. |:/

So now it's just Milk and Slipper. hope this will work.

Globe: hm..imma choose-

Me: psst, Globe?

Globe: huh? What is it, Bottle?

Me: (whispered) choose Milk.

He looked at me with a small confusion and shock.

Globe: wait, Milk? Why her?

Me: look, I get that you think shy ones won't contribute much, but take a look at her and Slipper in comparison. I've been on season 1 and Slipper, last I checked hasn't done much to contribute...so...if I were you, Milk can prove you wrong if you choose her.

Globe looked like he thought carefully after what I said, and it looked like he finally made up his mind with a smile.

Globe: okay then, we'll take our chances. Milk, welcome to the team. /:)

Milk: (gasp) wait, really? O_O

Globe: yeah, what are you waiting for? Come on! ^_^

Milk squealed in joy like I never seen her have before, It warmed my heart a little.

Brick: ...your joking right?

Pan: i would've chosen her anyway. :)

Brick: oh who asked You, Fried Pan? >:/

Pan: myself! ^_^

Brick: . . .

Pan: . . . :>

Brick: ...(groans) =_=

I see that pan and brick haven't gotten along that well...hopefully it won't cause us "too" much trouble-

Milk: hey. ,:)

I turned to my right and noticed Milk tapping my shoulder, and removed her hand and had a nervous gesture.

Me: oh, hey. You need anything?-

She wrapped her arms around me in a tight hug.

Milk: I sort of noticed you and globe talking...thank you... ,;)

Me: you...figured out I was trying to convince globe to let you in? O/O

Milk: yeah...? ,:)

Me: ...geez...maybe it felt slightly obvious '^_^

Post it note: ooo~ do I sense something going on?~ /:)

Our faces turned red as Milk tried to contest the situation.

Milk: N-No...we're just...t-talking... ,:/ O///O

Post it note: tch, whatever you say~ ,;)

Milk looked like she felt nervous, but I tapped her shoulder to keep her calm.

Me: hey, don't worry about it, we'll pull through this together. ,;)

Milk: ...okay... ;)
