You opened the door and saw none other than Envy!! You stared in disbelief. You just couldn't believe it! Was this another dream or was it actually real?! Envy looked nervous. He gave you a big and quick hug then walked right in. He then took a seat on the couch.

"What are you doing here?! Weren't you arrested?!" You asked.

"I broke out. Anyway, we have to talk about something important!" Envy looked at you, his leg shaking anxiously. "I'm running away."

"You're what?! Envy!!! You can't do that!!!!" You shouted.

"Shhhh! Quiet!" He whisper-shouted. "No one can know I'm here."

"Sorry, but...you just can't run away..."

"(Y/N), I have to. I'm not going to sit around in prison and wait until they clear my name...if they ever do that... I don't want to leave you alone though, not with a real killer out there." Envy stood up and took your hands. "So (Y/N), run away with me." You stared at him and yanked your hands away, taking a few steps back.

"Envy...I can't. You can't either! This is going to make things worse! We can figure this out, Envy."

"They won't even let us see each other! How are WE going to be able to figure this out?!"

"I don't know! We just will!" You yelled. "I can work on finding the real killer!!"

"NO!!!" Envy yelled which made you jump a little. "(Y/N), no! That is so dangerous! I really don't want you getting hurt. You have to come with me. (Y/N)...it's the only way..." Envy begged. He looked at you with such a sad and desperate look. It hurt to see him upset, but you just couldn't.

"I'm not going. I'm sorry, Envy." You turned away from him.

"(Y/N), ple-"

Knock knock KNOCK!

You and Envy froze and looked at the door. Indistinct voices could be heard meaning there were multiple people out there. You and Envy looked at each other, understanding what must be done.

"Miss (L/N)! Open up, we need to talk! Is Envy in there?!" A deep voice yelled through the door.

"Change! Quickly!" You instructed in a harsh whisper. Envy nodded and began changing. You went to the door and opened it. There stood three soldiers.

"Miss (L/N), are you safe? Has Envy come by??" The soldier asked frantically, very worried.

"Yes I'm safe and no Envy hadn't come by. How could he anyway? Isn't he in prison?" You stepped aside to let them in.

"Unfortunately, he escaped. We also heard shouting as we came to tell you the news so we thought he might be here." The soldiers stopped. You saw them staring at where Envy was. However, that strange boy now stood in his place. You knew it was really Envy though. "Ah! Joseph! Are you here protecting Miss (L/N)?"

"Uh, yeah. I didn't want her to be alone tonight so I came by. That yelling you heard was just us fighting a little. Envy hasn't been here at all." Envy said

"Hm. Well thank you for looking after her, Joseph. You've been a big help ever since this case started.

"No problem at all."

"We're going to search for Envy. Please stay safe you two. You never know what Envy might do next." The soldiers said as they left.

Envy let out a huge sigh of relief and collapsed onto the couch. You ran a hand through your hair then looked at Envy.

"So this guy is Joseph, huh?" Envy asked as he looked at his body.

"And apparently he's been working with the soldiers." You commented. "Envy..."

"Huh?"

"I'm not going to run away with you, but please be careful." You said, working towards him. "Can you change back?"

Envy changed back to normal, his palm tree hair falling around him. You smiled softly. Heh. Palm tree. You pat his head lightly as he wrapped his arms around you and pulled you on top of him. You blushed lightly and smiled at him. Envy kissed your nose and smiled at you.

"I promise I'll be careful, (Y/N). I love you." Envy said.

"I love you too." You happily said as you snuggled into him. The familiarity of being in Envy's arms brought comfort to you as you dozed off. Envy kissed your head lightly and wished you goodnight.

"Goodnight, my love."

"Nighty night, palm tree."
