[Fan's POV]

Today's the day. I gotta ask them for the interview. I think they'll say yes. Hopefully. I don't know, but I need to pray for it to work.

I pick up my jacket, pull it on, and then walk out of my apartment.

"Today's the day. Let's hope this works out." I walk to where they would be and stumble upon Clover. "Jesus, were you mauled by a bear or something??"

"I wish," she sighs. "I was an idiot and pulled off a leaf."

"Damn," I laughed. "...you're serious, aren't you."

"Yeah...who's files?"

"Silver and Candle's, I'm supposed to be interviewing them. Speaking of, where are they?"

"I saw them head towards the hotel," she replies. I groan.

"I just left the hotel." She laughs as I complain. "I gotta go, cya."

"Bye!" I run back to the hotel.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"How the...fuck does...Trophy do this everyday???" I pant. God that was a long run.

"Fan, you good?" Test Tube grabs my hand and pulls me up. I nod. I motion to the hotel and sigh.

"I just left the...the hotel...and Silver and Candle...just entered the hotel...God I'm out of breath."

"You'll be fine. C'mon, I'll bring you to them." I nod as she takes my hand and leads me into the hotel.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Alright, Fan," Test Tube kisses my forehead. "I gotta get back to the lab. I'm sorry. I wish you luck! Fingers crossed!"

I smile and nod as she walks away. "Yeah...fingers crossed..." I knock on Candle's door.

[Candle's POV]

I hear a knock. "Come in!"

Fan opens the door. I'm getting sick and tired of him. "Hey, I have a question..."

"Is it about the interview?"

"...maybe! I don't know, you'll ha- We'll have to see!"

"It's totally about the interview isn't it."

He sighs. "Look, I just wanna know more about you two!"

"You already know enough." I groan. Silver finally wakes up.

"Candle, darling, who is it...Fan."

"Hi, Silver! I was wondering if you two would mind if I did an interview wi-"

"I have had it with you asking for the interview!! It will never happen!!" I snap.

"Candle?"

"Keep being curious and asking until you won't be able to feel curious anymore."

"Candle."

"So you'll do an interv-"

"We WON'T do an interview, what I meant was I'll ki-"

"CANDLE!!" Silver yells. I look back at him, clearly irritated. "Just leave him be..."

"Hm...fine. But let me do one tiny thing." I walk up to Fan. I grab the edge of the paper and...

Rrrrrip

"Wh...hh..." Fan passes out. Guess I'm stronger than I seem.

"What the...why'd you do that???"

Guilt suddenly hits me. I stare at his unconscious body. Tears fill my eyes. "Wh...why did I do that?..."

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[Test Tube's POV]

...it's been a few hours...Fan still isn't back yet...I need to check on him.

I start running to the hotel and I take the elevator. God I wish this thing were faster...

3rd floor.

The elevator door opens and I run out. I trip on something. Look down. It's...Fan?...and he's...BLEEDING???

"What happened?" I look at Candle and Silver.

Candle stutters then turns to Silver.

"She got mad and uh...ripped him?..."

"...what."
