Glitchy (SMG34 AU)

Chapter 5: wanna bet?

3 rushed through the door and immediately stopped when Claudio called his name "Heya Boss! I made your favourite, lemon-" but before Claudio could finish, 3 rushed to his room, slammed the door, grabbed his favourite pillow and did a high pitch-scream into it.

"BOSS?! WHAT'S GOING ON?!?!" Claudio said, opening the door.

3:*abruptly stops screaming* "Nothing Claud, I'm fine 🙂" *continues to scream into pillow*

Claudio was not having it. When 3 finally stopped his metal breakdown, "Wanna talk about?" Claudio said reassuringly. 3 lifted his head from under the pillow and said, "not a chance." Before slamming his head back onto his purple bed sheets. "Well fine then, I guess I'll just have to throw out those lemon sorbets." (Spiffy: this is a tribute to my mother, who likes lemons.) 3's eyes widened when he heard those single words. "...LEMON."

~★★★~

As 3 finished the sorbet, he eyed Claudio, who was instead eating some Koko Black chocolate. (Spiffy: a tribute to my older sister, who I definitely didn't steal chocolate from.) "Was the lemon sorbet made for me to come out of my cry cave?" 3 questioned. "No, I made them to make up for what I did to you last night, I shouldn't have brought him up, thinking that he was part of the problem. I'm sorry." Claudio said remorsefuly.

"But you forgot one thing." 3 said sternly. "Wh-what?!" Claudio said, afraid of his roommate's sudden tone. "You forgot to apologize for not calling me Batman!" 3 joked as Claudio sighed in relief it wasn't something bad.

"Cmon, I have a few dollars left from the Maccas, wanna go crash at the arcade?" 3 nodded as the two headed out.

Tari's POV—————————————————————

I looked at my computer, nothing. No emails, no phone calls, no wattpad notifications, nothing. Not even any fun games to play. Apart from Pong. But you need people to play pong, and to get people you have to...ugh...SOCIALIZE.

I usually play pong with 4, but he's not here today, as the boss said he could have a day off. That means I have to stare at this computer for 2 hours, with nothing to-do but fry my eyeballs. This is just sad. I hear a ping from my phone and find out I just got a text from 01010011 01110000 01101001 01100110 01100110 01111001 00001010.

                                                                                                                                       You

                                    Oh, nothing much. Just the same old work and stuff.
