SMG3 sighs as he takes a swig of his drink, the burning sensation reminding him how far he has fallen. He thinks back on the battle back at the meme factory, he couldn't believe he failed. Though thinking about it more, that was the story of his life. In the past he made it his life mission to ruin SMG4, to the point he lost himself and attempted to kill them all. The one thing he was glad to fail, he couldn't picture his life without these idiots in his life. He stares at his drink frowning, he was a failure of a villain isn't he?

He attempted to follow his dream, opening a cafe with both of his favorite activities. Drinking coffee and dealing with explosives, he remembered how exciting it was when everyone started to show up. He was making something for himself he thought, till one day no one showed up. No matter what he did no one wanted to be in his cafe, again he was failing while SMG4 was flying having everything handed to him. He lets out another defeated sigh as he finishes his drink, he just wanted to forget how much of a failure he is. He couldn't even stop mr.puzzles, the moment he was out done by that monster that has haunted them for months. Frustrated from the memory Three throws his cup, he breathes heavy as he watches the cup shatter in pieces.

Four arrives at his castle with a huge smile, finally they are free from Mr.Puzzles. He was glad that they were able to pull the plan off, what he didn't see coming was how much meme energy it was gonna take out of him. Hoping to get some energy back, he walks into the kitchen where he gasps at the sight in front of him. A depressed Three was sitting at the counter getting ready to open another bottle, SMG4 runs and takes the bottle away from him "Three! Why are you surrounded by so many bottles?!"

Three smiles brightly at four "Hey! So happy to see you, give me a hug!" Four panics seeing the man throw himself at him, dropping the bottle he catches the drunk man who cheers. "Three, how long have you been drinking?" He watches as the man stumbles away from Four's arms. Concerned that Three would fall he follows every step ready to catch him at any moment, Three giggles as he pokes Four's cheek "Since the whole puzzle thing!" Four sighs as he gently grabs hold of the guardian "Three lets get you some water okay?"

Four helps Three to a chair before walking away to get the man a glass of water, seeing his partner walk away Three starts to cry "Where are you going? Are you leaving me because I'm such a failure?" hearing that causes SMG4 to freeze. He turns to see his partner, it was strange for him to see his ex rival sitting there crying. Walking over he gently rubs the man's back "Hey, i'm not leaving you i just wanted to get you water." With a sniff he looks up at four, wiping his tears "liar..." he whispers, Four sighs as he pulls out a chair to sit next to Three "Do...you want to talk about what got you drinking?"

Three turns looking away from Four "How long have we been here?"

Confused by the question Four looks at the clock "A few minutes, why?" Three frowns thinking, he knew he came to the kitchen for a reason. He kept trying to think why he was there only to get distracted by his partner, Three smiles softly "You're so handsome it's annoying." SMG4 blushes, rubbing the back of his neck "Oh uh thanks! Now not to change the topic but I do want to know, did something happen today to get you like this?" Three's eyes water looking down, seeing this Four reaches out grabbing his partner's hand. It always tingled when they held hands, the energy that flows between them was strangely reassuring. Three keeps looking down and starts to cry "I'm a failure...i fail at everything i do," hearing his words break Four's heart.

Getting up from his seat, Four grabs Three pulling him into a hug "Dude, you're not a failure. You have done such amazing things, you're so smart...please stop saying this about my best friend." Three holds on to Four, he yawns starting to feel drowsy "You're so much better than me...why are you my friend?" he mumbles out as he battles his need to sleep. Four frowns hearing the pain in his partner's words, slowly he adjusted himself to hold Three better "I should be asking you that, I have done nothing but treat you like nothing." He hears a sniff before Three sleepily looks at Four, with a gentle smile Four wipes the man's tears "Okay, we are friends because you're more amazing then you think. You never give up no matter how hard things get, I honestly admire that about you."

Three lays his head on Four slowly falling asleep "You..liar" with those words the man fell asleep. Four frowns as he lifts up Three to carry him, the cafe was close by though the idea of using an elevator with SMG3 in his arms didn't appeal to him. He walks to his room and gently places SMG3 on his bed, he removes the man's hat. Smiling softly he kisses the man on the head "I hate seeing you like this Three...im sorry im failing at being your friend." He grabs Three's hand frowning "I promise, I will be better so this won't happen again."

Making sure Three is tucked in, Four walks back to the kitchen to clean up the bottles. He looks at the bar filled with different drinks and throws them in the trash, seeing how depressed his partner is he needed to make sure the castle is safe. Once everything was cleaned he returned to his room, he felt the fatigue of the day hit him. Not caring at the moment for Three's reaction when he wakes, Four lays in bed next to the man. He squeaks in surprise when three cuddle up to him, with a soft giggle he lets himself enjoy close contact as he drifts to sleep in SMG3 arms.
