Stanley POV:

I was trying to sleep but after what just happened, i just couldn't.
It was too much for my mind to wrap around.

After around what felt like 15 minutes, i sat up, wrapping the blanket around me.

"Ah Stanley, i see you're already awake from your..sleep."

I nod.

"I'll give you a few minutes to fully wake up, i would appreciate if we could carry on with the story then."

I looked around the room, but everything seems to be the same.

I got up after a few minutes, and decided to take the blanked with me.

No, I am not gonna fall in love with a blanked.

It just.. feels warm..and lovely..

"I'm glad you seem to appreciate the blanked i gave you. Don't lose it. It's definitely better than the stupid bucket."

Why is he so mad about the bucket? He gave it to me in the first place! 

"But eager to get back to Business, Stanley went through the first open door on his left."

I don't feel like doing ANY "ending" right now.

But..

Stanley had an idea. If the Narrator came to him once, who said it couldn't happen twice?

What could trigger the Narrator to come down again?

I'm sure asking won't help, and it would reveal my plan.

Oh i know! It's simple but maybe it will work.

"Reset?"

I asked.

"What? Reset? Why?? We didn't even do anything yet!"

"Please?"

"But- Ugh.. fine, whatever. Here you go, i hope you're happy."

After a few seconds, i was back at my office.

I went straight to the employee lounge, ignoring what the Narrator said.

Lucky for me, the blanket is back too.

But that's for the second part of my plan.

I stood in front of the vending machine.

"Do you want to drink something?"

"Yes."

"Eh, sure why not, here have some money."

Good.

I bought a can of soda and "struggled" to open it.

"Stanley don't tell me you can't even open this stupid drink."

I shrugged.

"Stanley- I can't help you with everything!"

I placed the can on the table and went on the couch to "sleep"

"Really?? Again?? Am i so boring you're just going to sleep??"

I ignored him.

After what felt like an eternity, i heard footsteps.

I opened my eyes.

No way. It's really.. him..?

He opened the can and put it back on the table.

Come on Stanley! Now!

I jumped of the couch and grabbed the Narrator's arm.

I should have thought about this more..

Shit.

We made eye contact for a really long time until the Narrator tried to get away.

Crap, he is handsome..

I grabbed his shoulders and forced him to look at me.

"Please don't go away."

I spelled out with my hands.

The Narrator didn't say anything, he just stood there.

"Please don't go. Please..I swear i am not going to hurt you or anything, just listen to me.."

I felt extremely nervous. I don't know how he is gonna react.

Was this just stupid? Will i regret it?

"Alright."
