Quiet. So quiet you could hear a baby crying from a mile away. Not that their was anyone besides Bashful and Sneezy in this other world.

So after Sneezy and Bashful kissed the life out of their faces, they told each other their dark past. Sneezy went first.

"I don't know what got into me... But somehow I just loved to kill people...and the idea of hurting someone..." Sneezy held his arm down to keep him from punching something. Or someone.

Bashful rubbed Sneezy's back. He once had felt the same way.

Now it was Bashful's turn. "He kept me in a big white room for hours and hours. Then I had no control over my body. I just remember trying to control my body, but it didn't work... It was like a nightmare." Bashful shivered.

Sneezy squeezed Bashful's hand. He wouldn't dare imagine the pain his lover had to go through.

Now it was quiet again. But not an awkward kind of quiet. More of a thinking kind of quiet. Lost in their thoughts.

Bashful sighed. "H-Hey Sneezy?" Sneezy looked Bashful's way. "Do you um...wanna look around this place and see if there's anyone else here?"

Sneezy smiled. "I think that's a great idea. Let's go." He stood up and took Bashful's hand. Bashful was scared so he liked holding Sneezy's hand.

                                     ~~~~

After two hours of searching they found no one else in the place they were. Bashful came up with the name "Sneezeville". "I've had this silly fantasy where we live in a town named after you..." Bashful explained. Sneezy chuckled. Bashful can't be any cuter than this.

Bashful blushed. He always liked it when Sneezy let out a small laugh to his little jokes. It warmed his small shy heart.

Bashful's purple eyes stared into Sneezy's blue ones. Maybe being alone together in an empty world wasn't so bad after all.

Wah!

They both jumped. What was that? A sudden cry in the forest? But there was no one in Sneezeville. Who was crying? Bashful glanced towards the woods. He grabbed Sneezy's hand and ran.

"Bash I don't think there's anyone here maybe it was just the wi-" Sneezy looked at Bashful, who looked like he had just seen his parents after a 20 year reunion. Sneezy looked in the direction Bashful was looking.

It was at this time that Sneezy's heart opened up.  There was a tiny hole in him that could only be filled by the warmth of something precious.

"S-Sneezy...it's...it's a baby..." Bashful walked to the small creature that lay in the baby basket. He stared at it. The baby smiled big. Bashful gasped. It was like the baby already knew him.

His eyes watered. "Sn-" Sneezy shushed Bashful. He hugged Bashful tight. Bashful laid his head on Sneezy's chest. Sneezy patted Bashful's head, letting him know everything was going to be okay. Nothing made sense right now but he had to comfort Bashful in times like this.

So they stood there. Staring at the small happy child. What could a baby be doing out here in the woods?

Where were the baby's parents?
