Buddy and Jayline's bickering slowly became annoying as the time passed, you ended up talking to Shoko for a while instead. Surprisingly, Shoko was great with making sure you were comfortable with the topic you both spoke about and often slid in a cheesy line or two. You continued to look around as you both spoke, there were mountains of what seems to be milk chocolate with white chocolate at the top and—

"IM LATE! I CANT BELIEVE I SLEPT IN! I SET 3 ALARMS AND SLEPT THROUGH THEM ALL!" a soft, masculine voice quickly exclaimed. You felt something woosh past you, and you had the urge to follow the figure, curiosity taking the wheel. Shoko, Buddy and Jayline stare at you in confusion, Buddy tilting his head; however, none of them questioned your motive, only following you as you walked.

The first to say something was Shoko, "Y/n? What's up?" You looked back at him and mumbled, "A new person, I want to meet him..." your thoughts trailed off as you continued to follow 'him'.








After what seemed to be hours, which was only about 15 minutes, you finally caught up to this 'late' boy. He twitched and looked about, seeming to be waiting for someone or something. He seemed to be around 5'3" with a  cream colored mullet, a plain t-shirt, and light Grey jean shorts. He seems to like the color white a lot, because he also has white socks and shoes, as well as white gloves. He turned around once you stepped on a branch—how typical in these situations. He had golden eyes, and despite his white hair and height, he seemed to be around your age.

"BACK AWAY, IM GOING TO BE LATE! IF YOU'RE HERE, THEY'LL NEVER SHOW UP!!" He yelled apprehensively. You were always the one to do the opposite of someone tells you to do, this case was no different. Buddy, Jayline, and Shoko hadn't fully followed after seeing the figure from a far, so now they watch your and the stranger's interaction.

"There's no need to yell, who are you?" You asked, cautiously stepping closer to this small and fragile stranger.

"What's it to you??" He squinted—You think he meant to glare. "You have no business of any sorts with me!" He continued, crossing his arms, looking at his watch now and then.

"I just want to get to know the people here, I'm new to this..." You quickly corrected yourself, "to 'the kitchen', and thought you were interesting. I'm Y/n" You held a hand out for him, you need to stop introducing yourself to strangers, one of these days you'll meet the wrong guy and who knows what will happen.

After a good few moments of staying silent and seeing your persistence, he gave in. "Well, since you won't leave... I'm Rob." He begrudgingly told you, returning the gesture. He seemed to have a bit of a red hue to his face, but you brushed it off as a trick of the light since he had quickly turned his head away from you. About as quickly as he wooshed past you earlier is how quickly he let go of your hand and recrossed his arms. He seemed familiar to you. Almost like a white chocolate bunny you would receive on easter—that must be what he is then... minus the rabbit part.

"Now may you leave? I need them to let me in..." 'Rob' muttered rather quietly, an odd contrast to your earlier first impression on him and his loud exclaimations.

"Sure, but on one condition. If we run into each other again, we will hang out and simply talk. It can help you relax and—"

"Fine, fine, now leave please." He shooed you away, hiding a small smile. You allowed yourself to be shooed away, but you didn't fully leave. Not yet.
