~Mitch POV~

Today is the day. The day I ask Jerome. I've been working up the courage for awhile, the past month. Jerome isn't just a silence project anymore. He's more than that. Larger than I would have ever expected. It's 11:55 am, almost time to wake Jerome up. I've set up the perfect place. It's in the woods, deep in the woods.

No one can judge us now.

I lightly tap Jerome. When he doesn't wake up, I shake him.

"Jerome! I can't sleep!" I whisper yell. She wakes up. I drag him out of bed, shove him out the window and into the woods. I take his furry hand and drag him. I can hear the monsters approaching, but I ignore them. I pull a lever on the ground and a hole opens up. I drag him down there. This leads away. Far away. Glow stones light up the path. When we finally are out of the tunnel, Jerome's legs hurt, and so do mine. I carry him until we reach the spot. Under a huge oak tree.

"Biggumms, can I ask you something?" I say nervously. I have this big speech prepared. But, words don't come out. I stand there like a dork, my mouth open.

"Yes... what is it?" he says. Time to go through with this.

"I-I want you to be my everything. My first and my last. Ever since we've meet I've really liked you. I know we've only known each other for a few weeks now, but I think-"

"Biggumms! I love you too. I feel the same way." He interrupts me. We hug, a long hug and head back. This day, honestly, was the best day of my life.

-2 weeks later-

~Jerome POV~

I love him. He is my everything now. I can finally be happy.

Anyway, we are moving. Actually sneaking out of the castle with all of Team Crafted. It happens tonight. Here's the plan:

We all meet each other under the big oak in the castle at midnight.

We go into Mitch's escape and travel all night.

THen, it's basic survival from there. We are also bringing another friend along, Nooch. He is super goo with red stone, so our house will stay hidden. Very hidden. I'm so excited!

We all can't wait.
