Great, another one of mephones competitions! It's so annoying...
Mephone walked infront of the teams, making an announcement. "Today's challenge is a tightrope walk. Both teams will have a tightrope, and two people will go on the rope at a time. Whichever team gets to the end first wins! The team that gets to the end last is up for elimination. If you fall off, we'll, ya just have to figure out how to get back up. Don't know what to tell you." Mephone explained.
He quickly led us all up to a small cliff. The ropes were connected to two sides of a cliff with a chasm separating the sides. It scared me a tiny bit...of course I wouldn't let it show, but still.
The challenge quickly started, Mephone splitting people into groups of two. Me and the person I'm with were gonna be the third to go.
"So, I'm with- oh.." the little excitement I had quickly faded.
"Hahaha, yeaaaa..." Balloon said nervously.
I groaned and turned ahead to the groups going first. The first group finished right as I looked ahead. Mic and soap celebrated at the end, leaning on a rock wall at the end and waiting for the others. The group ahead of us quickly started. Trophy and Knife argued a bit before moving [aka me forcing them] to go ahead. Trophy almost fell before Knife picked him up. Knife ended up just carrying him to the end, while trophy yelled and demanded to be put down.
Knife sat him next to the wall, Trophy sitting and pouting about being carried.
...so...my turn, huh?
I sighed, beginning to put a single foot on the rope. Balloon jumped above me, perks of being able to float that are unfair, and happily skipped across the rope. He was mainly floating around, taking little skips on the rope. I growled under my breath, kinda jealous.. I ended up getting a bit distracted from him jumping around, slipping off the rope.
"Auh- AAAHH-" I caught the rope with my teeth, hanging on for dear life.
Balloon turned around, quickly grabbing me. I flailed around, demanding he put me down.
"SIT ME DOWN- PUT ME DOWN!" I yelled.
Balloon panicked, almost dropping me. He sat me on the rope, and it almost lost balance imeadiantly. I could stand, though. He let himself land on the rope, reaching for me. "Geez, you ok, Nickel?" He asked.
"I-I'M FINE!" I backed away from him, almost falling again.
"...how about I just-.." He quickly picked me up and jumped a tiny bit, doing his little skips on the rope.
"Ah- BALLOON!"
"If I hold you, we get to the end faster!- I can jump, remember?"
"Well- I'd weigh you down either way, SO PUT ME THE FUCK DOWN." I demanded. He ignored me, skipping to the end.
He seemed to assume I just didn't like touch..that's not true. I'm actually kind of fond of it. I just get nervous when its.. touch from Balloon specifically. I don't know why.. I just can't seem to be normal when it's him!
My face always gets all warm and I get nervous and..UGHHH I HATE IT!
He held me tight as I flailed around, yelling and hollering. It wasn't long until we were at the end.
I stopped yelling, and he sat me down.
I scowled at him, quickly walking away.
I sat by Trophy at the wall.
"...he picked you up?" He asked.
"Mhm." I said.
He sighed.
The competition ended not to long after. Our team won, getting to the end first.
The other team, the bright lights, groaned and pouted about being up for elimination. Our team was free to go, so we left.
Still though, it always confuses me...why do I hate Balloon so much, but want him around me all the time?! Why do I panic when he touches me, but I don't want him to..not touch me.. DAMMIT, NICKEL, GET YOURSELF TOGETHER!
