 MePhone threw the door of his living room open and nearly ran straight into an armchair.

"Watch yourself."

He turned to the entrance of the hallway and saw MePad standing there.

"I have a problem!" He exclaimed. "And I need you to listen!"

"Of course," MePad nodded, entered the room, and sat in the chair MePhone had nearly collided with. MePhone sat on the coffee table instead of the couch for some reason and sighed.

"Does this have anything to do with why you're home so late?" MePad asked.

"I-I guess," MePhone started. "There's something wrong with me. The party yesterday, while I was there I talked to Cheesy, and..."

He trailed off. He was feeling butterflies again. Why? Cheesy wasn't even there!

"And..?" MePad questioned. MePhone opened his mouth to speak, but nothing came out. Why was this so hard to talk about? It took a lot of strength to muster up anything to say.

"I dunno what happened in my head, but it was like... Somebody flipped a switch and all of a sudden I was in love with him."

MePad raised an eyebrow. "Go on."

"And it really freaked me out. I got all nervous, tried drinking those nerves away, blacked out, and when I woke up, Cheesy helped me out with my hangover. It was so weird, I-I felt funny and I couldn't stop staring at him. I know I used to like him, but that was forever ago, and I didn't think my feelings would just come back like this!"

"You don't seem very happy about this," MePad observed. "If you think you're in love you should be happy about it, right?"

"But it's not normal!" MePhone spat. "It's weird! I wasn't supposed to like him back then and I'm definitely not supposed to like him now!"

"Why?"

"Because! Back in season 2 I barely saw him like this! My stupid crush went away! It wasn't supposed to come back!"

"Are you sure it even went away in the first place?" MePad suggested. "I'm no expert on romance, but if your feelings came back, it makes me think you were never really over them."

"That's ridiculous!" MePhone insisted. "I'm normal! My feelings can't come back! They were a phase! I got over it! I'm not gay!"

For a moment it was quiet.

"What does being gay have to do with this?" MePad asked. MePhone froze and blushed.

"Cheesy's a guy! I'm not supposed to like him!" He defended. "N-not that I'd care if he liked guys, it's just... I'm not gay, okay?!"

"Even if you're not specifically gay," Said MePad. "If you think your feelings towards Cheesy are romantic, that would make you attracted to men."

"I'm not!"

"May I ask if you are in any way... Ashamed?"

"S-shut up! I can't be ashamed of being gay if I'm not gay, and I'm not gay! Stop saying that!"

"MePhone-"

"Why are you even talking to me if you're not gonna listen to anything I say? Just because I'm going through a weird phase doesn't mean I like dudes! Stop being so accusing!"

"I believe a better word for that would be accusatory."

"Stop being so smart!" MePhone snapped, standing up and storming out of the room and down the hall. He entered his bedroom and slammed the door behind him with almost all the strength he had.

Stupid MePad. Stupid Cheesy. Stupid feelings. Stupid MePhone. This was all so stupid. He was mad now. He knocked over a bunch of things in his room. He chewed on inedible items until they were unrecognizable. He wanted to cry, but that would make him weak, so he just screamed. His creator used to call outbursts like these "tantrums," which he never liked, but he couldn't find a better word to describe them. It was immature and stupid, but at times like this MePhone didn't want to be the bigger person. He didn't want to have any composure. He just wanted to be angry.

At some point he ended up in the corner, shoving an old pillow in his mouth like he was a rabid animal. The only thing on his mind was destruction, until the world around him seemed to warp. He blinked in confusion, then looked up.
