"What...?" Eron murmurs in utter disbelief.

"You two know each other?" Trek continues for his friend, apparently unable to talk further.

"Well, that's the surprise I've been meaning to tell you." Cray starts, expecting something, anything from the boys that, instead, stay frozen in place like some Ice Realm statues, a prompt for him to continue. "We've been...getting to know each other, we've been feeling a harmony between us and it's been going steady for a while, so we decided...to give it a shot." He ends, sheepishly scratching his neck. "But only if you guys are okay with it."

It takes this for Eron to finally move, gathering his stuff and going to search for the most secluded room in this freaking place. He can't believe it, he literally cannot believe it!

"Oh!- um- sorry...he's probably just too overwhelmed by the news at the moment." Zephyra nervously tries to explain, expecting things to take this turn. "Let me go talk-"

"Actually." Trek interrupts her, shooting the both of them a glance that's impossible to decipher. "I'll go talk with him. Excuse me." He dismisses himself, to then disappear inside the cream colored, vacation inducing, little cute house in search for his friend. Once he finds him, the challenge is to get him to open up the door.

"I'm just as confused as you are, but if they're happy-"

"Leave me alone." Eron cuts off any form of communication between them.

He hesitates, his hand still at the doorknob to open the door if he doesn't want to talk. "Okay..." his hand leaves the knob. "But I'll text you later."

"Mm." Is the only sound that comes out from the room, not even a tiny light shining from under the door. Complete darkness, and complete silence as well. He has never been this quiet and calm ever since they know each other, and that has been for a long time.

He takes a few steps, about to leave the premises, but something tells him to insist just a bit more. "Text me when you want me to swing by so we can talk, you can't avoid this forever. I'll try to discover a bit more in the meantime."

After receiving static silence as an answer, he swiftly leaves to go see what his dad and Eron's mom are up to.

And that's how the rest of the afternoon proceeds, Zephyra and Trek checking in periodically to see if Eron is able to talk in some way, constantly disturbing his train of thoughts to the point he has to attach a paper on the door with "do not disturb! I'm fine!" written in it; Cray didn't get too near during this time, especially because he thought Eron was feeling this way partly because of him, so he didn't insist further with his presence.

Thoughts are very important to him, a way for his inner voice of reason to come out and discuss things like this one, or less important stuff like when is the next dj set gonna take place. When he's around others, his usual voice of reason is Ikor, much to the Icey's disdain in getting disturbed even in the shower. If Ikor is not there, Trek usually takes his place. Trek...he just about texted, saying he has new info and that he'll be here shortly to have dinner together, cooped up in this room instead of dining downstairs like normal beings. There's nothing normal about this, though.

A triple knock on his door signals the arrival of his friend that, without waiting for his verbal approval, enters the room, closing the door behind him. He carries in his hands a big plate of sloggus and an empathetic smile.
