Still Fireballs POV so far...

//

Jester hat exited the store he was in for the past 4 hours while Fireball waited outside. It was getting dark and cold.

"Jesus, finally! Look, It's the evening already, we don't have any time to think of a plan!" Fireball shouted, but quietly enough so that only Jester hat heard him.

Jester hat grinned. "Oh, don't you worry! I had a plan for a week now."

"Wha- uh.. okay.. that's weird." Fireball stated, before crossing his arms with a confused look on his face, still wondering what took Jester hat so long.

Jester hat pulled out a small necklace with a yin-yang engraved on it. "Yin-Yang! It's not exactly the symbol of love, but it sure does remind me of you guys! 'There's good in evil, and there's evil in good'. Isn't that inspiring?"

"No." The flaming object replied.

"Oh.. okay. Anyway! You see it's.." Jester hat looked at his watch.. he did not have a watch, he looked at his bare hand and pretended to tell the time. "..defnietly late! Now, you go to Pound's room, get him out of his bed by telling him it's something important, and go on the roof with him, then hand him the necklace! Isn't that genius!?"  He explained while handing Fireball the necklace and rubbing the palms of his hands together slyly.

"Yeah, yeah.. whatever."

Pound's perspective, also time skip it's like 10pm now

//

Pound was getting ready for bed, he already had his pajamas on and was in the middle of washing his face before sleep. He looked in the mirror of his bathroom, thinking about something deeply.

He sighed. "I wonder what Fireball's up to now.. is that creepy to think about? Is that what friends do..?" Pound talked to his reflection, getting more concerned with every sentence. He's been feeling odd around Fireball lately and was trying to figure out what was going on.

The coin wiped his face with a towel and walked to his bed, rubbing his eye. Suddenly, he heard a knock at the door, he huffed confused.

"At this hour..?" He slowly walked to the door, upon opening, he saw Fireball, smiling from ear to ear, but in an awkward way. "..Fireball?"

Fireball scratched the back of his head. "Hey, Pound. I was wondering if I um.. could meet you on the roof in like 10 minutes?.. Sorry if that's weird."

Pound felt his face get warmer at the voice of his best friend. "Yea uh.. no worries.. Just.. why this late..?"

"The sky looks pretty today, I think." Fireball blurted out, this was not part of the plan, he was supposed to say it's something important, but his sentence implied he just wanted to hang out and watch the sky.
SH/T!

"Sure." Pound smiled softly, seeing Fireball already going up the stairs to the roof of the building. He realised his face was all warm and his cheeks red. That's.. weird.

//

TIME SKIPPPP

//

Pound went on the roof. He saw Fireball sitting on.. a bench? Why the hell was there a bench on the roof..? Did he put it there? huh..?

He decided to not think much about it and just went and sat next to Fireball. "So.. did you want to talk about something..? Or.." He started.

"Oh, I just.. Wanted to give you this." Fireball smiled softly before taking out the yin-yang necklace he got from Jester hat. "It reminded me of.. us.. I- I mean!.. our friendship! Like.. in those cat tiktok videos! That kind of 'us' vibe!.. haha.." He got flustered really fast, slowly not being able to make complete sentences and stuttering.

Pound's cheeks became red again, this was.. so nice of him.. He's not the kind of person to give gifts to others.. is he special to him?.. No, no, they're just friends. And friends do friendly stuff like gift giving... right?..

"I.. Thank you.." The coin snickered and smiled, his cheeks even redder. He reached out his hands to hug Fireball but quickly stopped mid way and pulled himself away. "I'm sorry!.. Not a touch person, I'll remember now."

"No, it's fine.." Fireball leaned his head on Pound's shoulder.

THAT'S NOT WHAT FRIENDS DO!!!

Right..? Fireball dosen't like him like that, there's no way. He would've been able to tell!

Sigh.. relax, Pound. Just.. relax..

He put his head on Fireball's head and they both looked at the city's view blending in with the beautiful, bright stars. Pound has never seen something this beautiful, but he was not talking about the view.

//

Fireball's perspective

//

Fireball was panicking internally, he did almost everything according to Jester hat's plan, but when does the first step end? Is there a further plan? Should he just stay the way he is until the end of time? hm.. maybe, that wouldn't be so bad..

"I like the view." He finally spoke, softly. Putting his hand on Pound's other shoulder. He was blushing hard, but nobody could tell, he's a flame after all.

"Yeah.." Pound replied, but looking at Fireball, instead of the view infront of him.

//

Pound's perspective

//

He finally realised something.

"I uh.. I have to go now.. beauty sleep!.. haha.." The coin spoke awkwardly, stood up and went downstairs to his room. This was the comfiest he's ever been in ages, but he chickened out.

He could hear Fireball saying something quietly, but couldn't quite tell what he said. Pound was still flustered from all this. He went into his room, locked the door and jumped on his bed face down.

He dosen't like Fireball, does he?

And if he does, would Fireball like him back? Is that even possible?.. They're friends.. just friends..

Ugh! Focus, Pound! He sat up and put his face in his hands.

Pound's been inlove for some time, hasn't he? He just didn't realise.

And it's probably one-sided..

//

Fireball's perspective

//

Fireball felt disappointed, he walked to his room slowly, with his head down. Pound probably got uncomfortable with all this.. Why was he even trying?..

He turned on his phone upon entering his room and locking the door, sat on the bed and called Jester hat.

FB: "He didn't stay for long. This plan isn't working.."

JH: "Oh, don't say that! We just need more time, we have more time than ever, don't you worry! I already prepared something for tommorow!"

FB: "But.. What.. What if he dosen't like me back?.. ever? What if he'll hate me if I do all that? He already got uncomfortable, I think."

JH: "We'll be fine! You've got that ChaRIZZma! He'll be all over you in a few days with this plan, you'll see. You'll be the rizzl-"

FB: "Yeah, okay, whatever, enough. And don't ever say that fucking word again."
