(AUTHORS NOTE: this chapter is inspired by Heartstopper btw)
moral of the shot: it's 9:00pm and smg3 has to leave the showgrounds and stay at the internet graveyard for few weeks. He's already said his goodbyes to the crew but there's someone he wants to say goodbye to again.
3 had packed his suitcase and left in next to the door, he had just finished getting ready and had a few minutes before he had to leave. He looked out of the window as the rain banged against the pane recklessly. Letting out a small sigh, he looked around the coffee shop and an uneasy smile grew on his face.
"I don't think I want to leave..." he said to himself, looking at the pictures he had hung up of himself and the crew.
"it's only a few weeks, I'll be fine." he said through his teeth, trying to reassure himself. After a few minutes of looking at all of the memories, he came to a final decision. He didn't want to go. Leaving his friends, the shop, eggdog, was a little bit too much for him, despite it not being permanent. Without hesitation, he scrambled with his keys to unlock the door and threw it open before shutting it behind him and legging it to the castle. The rain fell heavy on his hair and soaked his clothes and you could see some of his chest through but he did not care. Once he had arrived at the castle, he knocked on loudly and waited for someone to answer. The blue meme guardian opened the door and looked a little confused as to why 3 was here and not at the internet graveyard. Small tears formed in 3s eyes as he immediately hugged smg4 and wrapped his damp arms around his warm torso.
"I'm not leaving, i don't want to go, I don't want to leave you." he said through his sniffles and sobs, resting his chin on 4s shoulder.
"shhhhh, it's okay you don't have to. You're soaking wet, why didn't you bring a coat?" 4 responded softly, rubbing 3s back.
"i- I don't know I just- I wanted to see you before I left so I ran and didn't really care about the rain. I just missed you a lot, despite seeing you yesterday. The thought of being without you for 2 weeks, it was.....It was too much for me."
3 jumped and hooked his legs around 4 as the blue meme guardian held him like a baby and carried him into his room after shutting the door. Smg3 cuddled up onto 4s chest as the blue guardian leant against the wall whilst sitting on the bed and calling the internet graveyard, making an excuse for 3.
"yeah, he's really sorry but he has unfortunately come down with a terrible illness and won't be able to make it. Don't worry I'll look after him and I'm sure he'll be just fine. okay, bye." 4 said on the phone. He hung up and placed it to the side.
"all sorted 3, you don't have to go!" 4 exclaimed happily with a huge smile on his face.
"thanks so much 4, and sorry for showing up unannounced. I probably shouldn't have done that, especially at this time of night. I best be going home then." 3 sighed sadly, he wanted to stay but didn't want to intrude.
"wait. It's raining cats n dogs outside and it really is late, do you maybe want to stay the night? you don't have to if you don't want to but the offer is there." he asked, gesturing to a pair of purple and black pyjamas he kept specifically incase 3 ever stayed over.
"yeah, that's be nice. Thanks smg4."
They now both had their pyjamas on and shared smg4s bed.
"night 3," 4 smiled, shuffling a little closer to 3.
"night 4," 3 said, stroking 4s hair before falling asleep onto his chest
