Travis had never been so flustered about someone in his entire life. Usually he was smooth and flirty around people, but he could barley squeak out an "Okay" when Zane offered to walk him home. Travis looked at him. Zane was relaxed- or at least he looked like he was. Travis looked back at the sidewalk. Maybe this was a bad idea...

Travis almost passed his house because he was so absorbed in his thoughts.
"We're here," Zane said, sounding a little bored. He glanced at Travis.

"You okay?" He asked. Travis nodded, and opened the door.

"Th-Thank you..." He said. Zane smiled under his mask.

"No prob," Zane said. He turned around and left, only turning back to give Travis a little wave. Travis slowly waved back, shut the door, and sank to the carpet. He looked at his hands.

'What am I gonna do about... us?' Travis thought to himself. He stood up and went to his room to watch anime on Crunchyroll.

The next day, Travis got up and decided to go on a walk to clear his mind. He got dressed and went outside. As he left the house, he saw someone in the corner of his eye. Great. It was Zane. Zane waved him over.

"What are you doing up so early?" Travis asked.

"I was gonna ask you the same thing," Zane said cheerfully. Cheerfully? This is new. Travis grinned.

"Well, I was about to go on a walk..." he said, "Wanna join me?" Zane nodded.

"Yeah, sure, why not?" He said. Travis shifted his weight awkwardly. He linked his arm around Zane's. Zane laughed and pulled his arm away.

"No touching for you," He said teasingly, "Only on AOT night~"

Travis blushed and looked away.
"O-okay," He said, "Yeah, s-sure..."
